Chapter 859: Traffic Jam
The wedding proceeded as scheduled.
The event took much effort on Mu Xichen’s part.
Li Beinian was exhausted just from going along with the plan.
Before the wedding, the bride and groom were not allowed to meet.
Although the two of them had lived together for a significant length of time, still, they were left yearning for each other in the week before their wedding.
Before Li Beinian got married, she lived in the old mansion of Qian Zhou.
Every time she saw the little building next to it, she would imagine Mu Xichen standing opposite it.
She imagined him looking at her with his deep, dark eyes. Although his expression would be serious, he could not hide the twinkle in his eyes.
He was doting and indulgent.
“Nian Nian, why are you in a daze?” Old Master Li walked in with his cane and a smile on his aged face. “You’re about to become a bride, yet you’re in your own world.”
“Of course.” Tang Xiaoge smiled and held Li Beinian’s hand happily. “Our Beinian is finally getting married. Of course, she’s feeling all sorts of emotions, right?”
Li Beinian was dressed in a luxurious outfit today. She was wearing a gorgeous phoenix coronet and robe.
Nico had prepared this for her, however, she was not aware of this.
It wasn’t only until yesterday when this outfit was delivered, that she realized Nico had asked Mu Xichen for her measurements. He had hired the best wedding dress design team in the country to work day and night so that the outfit would be ready by her wedding day.
It suited her perfectly and was exceptionally beautiful.
In traditional weddings, the amount of jewelry a bride had was an indication of the value of the bride.
Together with Chi Dali, Tang Xiaoge had already prepared everything for Li Beinian
Li Beinian’s pink and delicate skin was so fair that it was almost translucent. Under the three-quarter sleeves of her fiery red traditional wedding dress, there were rings of bangles bearing auspicious symbols like dragons and phoenixes, the Five Fortune Gate, and the “joy” character.
Not only did she wear bangles, there were also earrings, necklaces, and all sorts of accessories. From gem ta.s.sels to jade pendant belts, there were all sorts of precious items. At a glance, it was a dazzling lineup, luxurious and expensive.
Li Beinian turned around and looked at the people who were accompanying her on her wedding day. Her luscious red lips parted as she asked, “Is it not time yet?”
Everyone laughed in response to her question.
Cheng Su teased her, “Are you in a hurry to get married?”
“It’s about time. We’ll stop the groom at the door when he gets here.” Bo Chengcheng smiled wickedly. “When the time comes, whether your man will successfully claim you will depend on his sincerity.”
“I want a big red packet!” Cheng Su smiled radiantly. “Sister Nian is so beautiful today!”
“Of course the bride is beautiful!” Tang Xiaoge sat beside Li Beinian. “Beinian, are you going to live in Guang City or Tongzhou after getting married?”
“Of course Guang City,” Cheng Su interrupted. She continued, “Nian’s Hubby is doing business in Guang City. It’s such a big company based in Guang City.”
“It’s time.” Bo Chengcheng looked at her watch. “Is the groom stuck in a traffic jam?”
The new house was in Tai Chen Prefecture and was quite a distance from Qian Zhou.
“Unlikely.” Cheng Su also looked at the time. “It’s so early now, there shouldn’t be a traffic jam. It’s not the peak hour yet.”
Li Beinian sat on the bed. Oddly, she felt a twitching just above her eyes.
Reaching out to touch her eyelids, her smile faded.
