Chapter 1369: I Only Want You (67)

Fang Erlan had also sent him a message on Weibo to thank him for his wishes.

All the outsiders were thoroughly entertained by the juicy gossip.

No one knew that Yan Ge had been drowning his sorrows in alcohol on the day of Fang Erlan’s wedding.

Yu Caiwei was dumbstruck after watching the entire live-stream of the wedding.

Staring at Fang Erlan, who was beaming with joy and smiling widely from ear to ear, Yu Caiwei could not believe that Xiao Chenyang turned out to be a tycoon who had concealed his identity well.

I can’t believe I actually mocked Fang Erlan for being foolish when I found out that she was leaving the entertainment industry.

In hindsight… I was the foolish one.

I can’t believe that such an outstanding man would actually be willing to pose as Fang Erlan’s bodyguard.

It must be true love.

Needless to say, everyone knew about the wedding that Xiao Chenyang had spent a long while planning for. However, only a few people knew that Fang Erlan was expecting.

It was a double happiness for Fang Erlan.

She was already two months pregnant.

Xiao Chenyang had also sold her apartment in Qingyuan Estate.

On top of that, they had also bought another apartment for Xiao Yue, who was incredibly grateful for their kind gesture, although she insisted on declining the gift.

After their wedding, they would be embarking on their tour around the world.

They would then live the carefree life that they had always wanted and return again only when it was closer to Fang Erlan’s due date.

Although Jin Qingyan did not mention anything on the surface, he too was actually preparing for his own wedding for the third time.

The first time that they got married, they had a proper wedding ceremony and a banquet. However, for the second time, they only got their marriage registered without a wedding ceremony. This time, it would be their third and final wedding.

An Xiaoning had no idea about his plans at all.

Needless to say, he was an expert at hiding secrets and did not once let the cat out of the bag at all.

When Xiao Chenyang and Fang Erlan were about to leave, Jin Qingyan told them that they could forget about coming back to Wei Ni Estate if they were to miss his wedding.

Xiao Chenyang was speechless.

I didn’t say that I wasn’t going to attend this wedding…

If he wants me to give him a huge red packet for his wedding, he could have just said so…

It was the 6th of July.

Fang Erlan and Xiao Chenyang’s wedding was just around the corner.

Jin Qingyan announced his wedding plans on the official Jin Corporation website.

He had also announced out of the blue that the wedding would be held on this very day.

He had clearly been keeping a very low profile.

All of the employees of the main branch office of the Jin Corporation received red packets and were granted a day off. The sum received by each employee was in accordance with their seniority and position in the company, with the janitors receiving the lowest amount of five hundred dollars.

Not wanting to fall behind Xiao Chenyang, Jin Qingyan openly invited the media and reporters to report about his wedding.

However, the styles of their weddings were completely different.

Xiao Chenyang had a Western wedding while Jin Qingyan opted for a Chinese-style one.

Mei Yangyang and Fang Erlan were appalled and caught by surprise the moment they saw An Xiaoning standing in front of the mirror, clad in a traditional Chinese wedding gown with a face full of makeup.

He actually kept his promise.

He threw a full-fledged and extravagant Chinese wedding.

Jin Rongyan and Long Xiaoxi were the flower boy and flower girl, respectively.

As much as Jin Yiheng was displeased about the arrangement, it was more appropriate for Jin Rongyan to be the flower boy because he was about the same height as Long Xiaoxi and thus appeared more compatible. On the other hand, Jin Yiheng was almost eight years old and way taller than Long Xiaoxi.

An Xiaoning was picked up from the Gu family mansion.

Shi Qingzhou, Tuoba Shuo, Tuoba Rui, as well as the other members of the Tuoba family, were all present at the wedding.

There was a beautiful phoenix embroidered on the red veil that was placed over her head.

Mei Yangyang and Lin Mingxi helped her down the stairs and escorted her into the sedan.

She was carried all the way to Wei Ni Estate.

They had also sealed the roads, and other vehicles and pedestrians were prohibited from using the route leading to the Gu family mansion to Wei Ni Estate.

An Xiaoning could not help but recall the time when she rode a sedan in her previous lifetime. Fortunately, the sedan proceeded at a steady pace and was not jerky at all. Hence, she did not feel giddy and instead felt as if she was just sitting in a normal car.

Three sedan carriers took turns to carry the sedan. Two whole hours later, they finally arrived in Wei Ni Estate.

They lowered the sedan onto the ground and went through the formalities, after which Jin Qingyan lifted the red curtain of the sedan while the crowd cheered on merrily.

He handed her a red silk ribbon, which they held together while exiting the sedan.

They walked over the pot of fire, which symbolized prosperity.

Jin Rongyan and Long Xiaoxi were also dressed in traditional costumes and were leading the way.

Jin Qingyan then carried An Xiaoning on his back, all the way to the area where the ceremony would be held.

They first bowed to Heaven and Earth, then to their parents, and, finally, to each other.

The ritual they went through next was a little different from the traditional ones.

After the ceremony ended, Jin Qingyan removed the red veil from An Xiaoning’s head.

The moment he did, the crowd began applauding and cheering loudly.

An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan smiled at each other before exchanging toasts.

They entered their nuptial home and changed into their next set of gown and suit, respectively.

This time, An Xiaoning donned a red gown while Jin Qingyan wore a suit.

They had decided to hold a grand wedding to make up for the one they did not have in their previous lifetime.

Although An Xiaoning had to walk to each table in her sky-high stilettos during the toasting ceremony, she did not allow the pain in her feet to rain on her parade. It did not stop her from feeling as if she was on top of the world.

After the toasting ceremony, An Xiaoning followed her mother into the bedroom.

It had been a long while since the last time Shi Qingzhou had seen her daughter. Needless to say, she was incredibly excited and thrilled to see her daughter getting married.

Tears had welled up in her eyes.

“Xiaoning, I finally got to witness your big day. I couldn’t attend your weddings in the past and it had always been a huge regret of mine. However, all is well now and I’m really happy for you. A devoted man like Qingyan is really rare to come by. I can put my mind at ease now that you’re in safe hands. I know he won’t ever let you feel aggrieved.”

An Xiaoning hugged her and teared up slightly as well. “Mother, thank you for giving birth to me. Although I was put through lots of suffering in the past, I feel like everything is getting better for me now. From now on, I’m going to live well and finally enjoy life. I’ll get to rest and stop being so exhausted all the time.”

“Good that you think that way. I know your health has been poor. What’s important now is to rest well and nurse your body back to the pink of health.”

“I understand.”

Shi Qingzhou smiled and said, “You must be tired. Take a warm water bath and get some rest. You still have to attend another round of celebration tonight, don’t you?”

“Yes, sure.”

An Xiaoning took a comfortable bath and slept through the afternoon. She then woke up feeling refreshed and energized.

In the evening, she enjoyed a reunion dinner with her closest friends, after which they gathered in the lawn and watched a performance while sipping on some drinks. Everyone was beaming widely from ear to ear, clearly in high spirits.
