The Devil's Sleeping Beauty-Chapter 214 Thank you
Xia Meilin was talking about her to Li Bingbing?
"My name is Li Bingbing, Meimei's one and only best friend, it's nice to finally meet you." Li Bingbing smiled.
Just by looking at Li Bingbing, Nian Jiezhen can already tell that she might be crazier than Xia Meilin. It would be better if she maintains her distance away from her. "Likewise, my name is Nian Jiezhen."
"That looks so painful, did Meimei slapped you hard?"
"…"
Li Bingbing laughed lightly, "Don't worry, I was been slapped by her too. It proves that she has accepted you as her friend."
Xia Meilin rolled her eyes, "Stop spouting nonsense, Bingbing."
"It's not nonsense, I am just stating the truth. You mark your friends this way." Li Bingbing grinned.
Xia Meilin decided to ignore what she said, "Anyway, where is ge ge?"
"Ah, Sisi went out to buy something." Li Bingbing said before she turned to her daughter and gently rocked her by.
Nian Jiezhen narrowed her eyes as she observed Li Bingbing quietly. From the look of it, Li Bingbing was lying.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Ah, it looks like it's time for you to go." Li Bingbing said as she turned back to Xia Meilin. She smiled at her and blew her a kiss, "Congratulations on your wedding with the boss, sweetheart."
"Thank you, Bingbing." Xia Meilin let out a gentle smile. "See you later."
After the call ended, Nian Jiezhen handed the bouquet of baby blue and white peonies before Xia Meilin headed toward the door.
As the door was opened for her, her eyes went wide in surprise when she saw Xia Sinian standing in front of her in a black retro suit with a light blue square scarf.
"I've come to pick up the bride." He said with a soft smile on his lips.
Xia Meilin got teary underneath her veil as she said in a choked-up voice, "Sinian-ge…"
"I can't miss my sister's wedding." He offered his arm to her, "If you cry, you'll ruin your makeup."
Xia Meilin pursed her lips as she held his arm, "I'm wearing a waterproof makeup." She really was trying her best not to cry.
"Meilin… be happy, okay?"
Her red lips stretched out into a thin line when she heard what her brother said, "Stop saying something that would make me cry, idiot brother!"
They head straight to the outdoor garden of the hotel for the wedding ceremony.
A beautiful archway was decorated with fresh flowers. Meanwhile, the winding path that led the archway was covered with the petals of white roses.
Under the eye of the guests, Xia Meilin was led down the rose petal covered path by her brother, all the way to the awaiting Lu Yifeng who was wearing a white suit.
Lu Yifeng stood the end of the aisle, staring at the woman he loved from the past, present and will love on the future.
When Xia Meilin reached together with her brother, Xia Sinian handed his sister to her husband. "I know I have said this before, but I will say it again… I'll be leaving my sister to your care."
Lu Yifeng gave a nod as a response before he turned to his wife and held her hand.
"You look stunning…" Lu Yifeng whispered as he brought her in front of the priest.
She gave his hand a squeeze, "Thank you…" She whispered back.
"Today, we gather here to unite these two people in marriage. Their decision to marry has not been entered into lightly and today they publicly declare their private devotion to each other." The priest started before he continued, "The essence of this commitment is the acceptance of each other in entirety, a lover, companion, and friend..."
After the long speech of the priest, it then came to the time of the exchanges of vows. The priest looked at Xia Meilin, signaling her to deliver her vows first.
"I, Xia Meilin, vow to love you until the end of my days, even until our next lives. We have been through many things, but we didn't allow it to break us apart, we continued to move on for each other. Lu Yifeng, my feet run because of you, my heart beats because of you, my mind thinks because of you, and I love… because of you. Regardless of the obstacles that await us in the future, I promise above all else to live in truth and to communicate fully and fearlessly."
Because of Xia Meilin's heartwarming vow, Lu Yifeng had the urge to kiss her but because it was not the time for that yet, he tried his best to contain his happiness.
The priest smiled at her wonderful wedding vow before he turned to Lu Yifeng and gesturing him to say his vow next.
Lu Yifeng couldn't help but let out a loving smile towards the woman he loves. Everyone that was there witnessed this rare part of Lu Yifeng.
"I can't promise you a life without obstacles, but I can promise you that I will always be by your side when it arrives. You have brought joy to my empty world, you painted smiles on my wall full of frowns, you have splattered my pale wall with colors, you even drew love in my heart. Aside from those things, you have taught me how to appreciate every simple thing. You are the only one capable of doing that to me… To be honest, I still feel like this is all a dream. I should be saying my vow to you but before that, I wanted to thank you for giving me this chance to be with you. Meilin, thank you for giving us a chance, thank you for…" He paused as he lowered his head as he choked on the words he wanted to say.
Jing Yue and Ji Ruo were wiping their tears as they listened to Lu Yifeng's words. They weren't the only one who was on the verge of crying, the other women were the same. The men with them were touched too.
Lu Yifeng's eyes became misty as he squeezed Xia Meilin's hand, "… Thank you for being here, Meilin. You are the most precious gift I have ever received throughout my whole life that's why I promise to treasure you, to take care of you and to love you properly. I promise to give you the respect you deserve and to shower you with love every chance I get. I, Lu Yifeng, promise to love you eternally."
