She quickly held Xia Yehua to stop the woman from crying and said, “Mom, look at you, you’re dazed with joy. Where’s our red package?!”
She certainly had a red packet ready.
Xia Yehua reached into her handbag and drew out a swollen red envelope. Thrusting this into Xia Nuannuan’s hands, she said, “My wish is for the both of you to live a harmonious and beautiful life together. Mom wishes you both unity from now till eternity.”
Her sincere wishes meant far more to them than the formal instructed blessings that Shen Xiu had given them on stage earlier on.
Even Shen Zihao found himself tearing up.
Xia Nuannuan nodded and said, “Yes, Mom. We understand.”
Shen Zihao hesitated and said, “I understand.”
Then he added, “Mom.”
Suddenly, this became a touching scene and everyone’s eyes were stinging a little.
For some reason, the recognition ceremony of the new in-laws they had just seen on stage hadn’t been half as touching as this.
Mei Feng, who was seated at Table 2, clenched her fists so tightly that her fingers dug into the flesh of her palm.
Just as she thought that she had a one up on Xia Yehua, in the blink of an eye, it had all been destroyed by this little tr*amp!
The crowd seated further away could not have heard Xia Nuannuan, however, she had heard every word loud and clear.
After Xia Nuannuan had walked off the stage, she had told Shen Zihao, “Let’s go and bow to Mom as well.”
Shen Zihao had replied, “Do we really need to go through all this trouble?”
Xia Nuannuan had insisted, “A marriage is a once in a lifetime occasion. Let’s not be concerned about taking the trouble. If we don’t do this now, we may live with regrets later on. Mom is not in good health. She was looking at you with so much yearning that my heart aches for her.”
At these words, Shen Zihao immediately became ambivalent and said, “I’ll leave it up to you.”
Then he was led along by Xia Nuannuan and walked towards Xia Yehua.
All of this had happened because of the interfering Xia Nuannuan!
Mei Feng was so mad that she wished she could throw the content of her wine glass in Xia Nuannuan’s face.
But still, she worked hard at keeping her composure, so that she looked indifferent, as though nothing had happened.
–
Now, it was time for the bride and groom to give their toasts.
As Xia Nuannuan was pregnant, they had replaced the wine in her glass with water.
The guests didn’t make things difficult for them. After a single round of toasts, Shen Zihao got tipsy.
The wedding banquet came to an end at 2 p.m.
Everyone started to leave in an orderly manner.
Xia Yehua looked worriedly at Shen Zihao and Xia Nuannuan, saying, “Look at these two. One is pregnant and the other has had too much to drink. What do we do now?”
Shen Liangchuan assured her, “There are many people here from the Shen family. You worry too much.”
Xia Yehua sighed.
So what if she were worried?
The newlyweds had to head back to the Shen family anyway. It wasn’t as though she could follow them.
She looked at Shen Zihao being helped into the car, and then Xia Nuannuan, in her wedding gown, also entered the vehicle. After this, she watched the car pull off and drive away slowly.
Xia Yehua’s gaze followed the vehicle until it disappeared into the distance, then she sighed deeply.
Shen Liangchuan’s nanny van pulled up next to them at this point. “Let’s go.”
Xia Yehua nodded and got into the van.
Around the time they arrived back at the villa, Xia Nuannuan and Shen Zihao too, had arrived at the Shen family residence.
Their car entered the main gate of the Shen family residence, drove past the layered gardens and at last came into the palatial western-style multi-storied building. Xia Nuannuan felt as though all of a sudden, she was being restrained by something invisible.
She got off the car, almost too afraid to breathe, and followed Shen Zihao as they stepped into their nuptial home together.
Shen Xiu had stayed behind in the hotel to take care of the post event matters, hence, Mei Feng had come back home with the newlyweds.
