The clock had just struck midnight when He Ju was about to put down his phone and sleep, but then he saw a message from Liu Jia: “Happy wedding, wishing you happiness.”

He Ju was slightly taken aback, then a flood of messages from classmates and relatives and friends came in, all saying: “Brother! Happy wedding!”

As He Ju watched the messages pop up one after another, he eventually slid down to reply to Liu Jia first: “Thank you.”

After that, He Ju replied to the others one by one. After finishing, he noticed a message from an unknown number: “Happy wedding, wishing you a bright future.”

Not knowing who it was, but out of politeness, He Ju still replied: “Thank you.”

Then, He Ju put down his phone again and counted sheep to fall asleep.

At 4:30 in the morning, He Ju woke up again, glanced at the time, and hurriedly got up to get dressed and ready.

As soon as He Ju opened the door to his room, he saw Motor, Fatty, Song Xuan, and his other good friend Wu Hao, who was He Ju’s high school classmate and had rushed back from City C to be his best man.

He Ju’s parents, grandparents, and maternal grandparents were all up too. Seeing He Ju, the whole family couldn’t stop smiling: “Hurry, hurry, go wash up, the makeup artist is ready.”

Tian Zhen asked, “So, have all the cars in the convoy arrived?”

Fatty slapped his chest confidently: “Auntie, don’t worry, there are twenty-six cars and ten motorcycles in total, with the lead car being a Maserati President followed by a Maserati Ghibli. They will all be here soon, we’ll pick up the sister-in-law and take a tour around the city before heading to the hotel.”

Tian Zhen kept saying, “Good, good!”

After He Ju washed up, everyone was busy preparing, and the house was brightly lit.

After He Ju finished washing up and before he could change into his groom’s attire, the makeup artist dragged him to sit down: “We need to leave at six, so we have to hurry.”

He Ju and his party needed to arrive at the old house by eight, then pick up the bride, circle the city, and head to the hotel for the ceremony.

At 5:30 in the morning, He Ju also started to feel nervous.

Fatty rushed in and said, “The photographer is ready, and they’re setting up the scene. He Ju, hurry and change.”

Makeup artist: “Hold on, we’re almost done.”

He Yu exclaimed, “Fing Hell, are the red envelopes ready?”

Tian Zhen replied, “They’re ready, I’ve prepared fifty, should be enough, right?”

He Ju said, “That’s enough.”

By this time, He Yuxin had also finished her makeup. She was wearing a flower girl’s dress today to deliver the ring to Si Hua and had also prepared a dance.

Seeing He Ju made up, He Yuxin uncharacteristically didn’t tease him: “Brother, you look really handsome today!”

He Ju laughed: “What? Wasn’t brother handsome before?”

Little Yu Xin pouted: “You were handsome before, but today you’re the handsomest! Sister-in-law will definitely like it! Hehe~”

He Ju’s mood instantly soared with joy. Speaking of Si Hua, he was also eager to see her.

He Ju pinched Little Yu Xin’s chubby cheeks: “Soon we’ll see sister-in-law, are you excited?”

Little Yu Xin’s eyes sparkled: “Excited! Brother, hurry up and change, let’s go pick up sister-in-law!”

She had been practicing that dance for a long time, just to bless her brother and sister-in-law!

He Ju: “Alright!”

No sooner had He Ju entered the house than the photographer came in with equipment: “Here we go, let’s take some shots of the groom’s family first! Everyone just stand together naturally, any pose is fine, talking and chatting works too!”

He Yu and Tian Zhen walked over to Fatty and the others with freshly made rice cakes in hand: “Kids, are you hungry? Have some breakfast before we go.”

The two groups chatted naturally, all smiles.

The photographer snapped away, especially capturing Little Yu Xin’s adorable moments countless times.

When He Ju came out, under the photographer’s direction, it took half an hour to take a set of photos, and then they left on time at 6:30.

Fatty was a good driver, so he drove the lead car. After everyone got into their vehicles, the convoy set off towards the old house.

Meanwhile, Si Hua, who had just finished her makeup and hadn’t had time to change into her wedding attire, was stunned: “So soon?”

He Yuyan laughed and pulled Si Hua up: “What’s the hurry? You better quickly put on your phoenix crown and wedding robe, waiting for He Ju to come and marry you?”

This made Si Hua blush, yet she still laughed with her head down.

Besides He Yuyan, there were three other bridesmaids: Yang Jing, Si Hua’s Chinese friend from abroad who had arrived in City A last night, named Linda, and another was her cousin, Zhou Zhixuan, the daughter of her aunt, who had just come of age and had a good relationship with her cousin. She had specially taken leave from school to come over today.

Seeing Si Hua like this, everyone laughed together.

Zhou Zhixuan ran over and affectionately linked arms with Si Hua: “Cousin, seeing how shy you are, it seems you really like your brother-in-law?”

He Yuyan chimed in: “Of course, your brother-in-law, after all, was hard-won by your sister with great effort, a real treasure!”

Si Hua’s face turned even redder: “Yu Yan, that’s not very ethical of you!”

He Yuyan raised her hands: “Okay, okay, I surrender! Hurry up, get dressed, do your hair!”

And so, Si Hua was escorted into the room.

Si Hua’s bridal attire was a custom-made traditional wedding dress. With heavy snow falling outside, it was obviously not suitable to wear a wedding gown, and the phoenix crown was personally prepared by Si Mei, crafted with gold at great expense. The makeup artist and photographer were the best in City A.

Everyone was busy, and at this time, the hotel also began to bring in truckloads of fresh flowers to decorate the venue.

As soon as you opened your phone, you could see that the news of He Ju and Si Hua’s wedding today had been pushed to the trending searches. In just one hour, the comments had reached over a hundred thousand, and the shares were astonishing.

In everyone’s eyes, the story of a wealthy woman marrying a poor boy was a juicy piece of gossip!

As a result, media from all walks of life also rushed to the hotel venue.

Apart from the hotel staff, the earliest arrival was another person, Liu Jia. She stood quietly outside the hotel, watching the staff move out their wedding standees, then went back inside.

Liu Jia smiled, took advantage of the empty doorway to take off her down jacket, revealing the pristine white wedding dress underneath. Without delay, she ran over and stood beside He Ju, covering Si Hua’s face, and took a few selfies with He Ju, then put her down jacket back on.

Just as Liu Jia was about to go to the restroom to change out of the wedding dress, she saw that many reporters were gradually taking their places.

Liu Jia couldn’t help but feel a bit scared. It was good that she had arrived early; otherwise, being photographed would have been bad, and she didn’t know if it would cause trouble for He Ju.

But…

Liu Jia flipped through her photo album, which was the only thing that could make up for her regrets.

After standing at the door for a long time, Liu Jia also saw the trending search, with someone live-streaming He Ju’s procession to pick up Si Hua from her home with a drone.
