Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“When Young Master Han sees you later, he’ll definitely be so mesmerized that he will want to hide you and not let anyone else set their eyes on you!” It was the first time the makeup artist had seen such a beautiful bride, and she herself could not take her eyes off Nian Xiaomu.
She could not help but continue to sing praises of her beauty.
Seeing as how Nian Xiaomu did not have any further instructions for her, she packed her stuff up and left the lounge.
The lounge became empty, leaving Nian Xiaomu seated alone before the dressing table.
Looking at her reflection in the mirror, she felt as if she was looking at a stranger.
She then began to slowly reach out and touch her own face.
In her head, she remembered pus.h.i.+ng Tan Bengbeng onto a chair and insisting on putting makeup on for her, popped up.
Tan Bengbeng’s facial features were delicate but carried a trace of coldness.
The look she had with her bare face accentuated her aloofness.
From afar, it seemed as if there was no way anyone could get close to her.
The scene in her mind happened around two months after Nian Xiaomu had woken up from her coma.
Then, Tan Bengbeng accompanied her for her rehabilitation sessions every day, to the extent that she had no time to even attend to herself.
Nian Xiaomu could remember it was when she was basically able to care for her daily needs that she had dragged Tan Bengbeng to the dressing table and wanted to help her put on makeup.
“My Bengbeng, after you put on makeup, you’ll definitely be a beauty!”
With her pestering, she recklessly started applying whatever she thought looked pretty onto her face.
But, back then, she had just recovered and did not even remember the basic steps of applying makeup, much less any makeup technique.
Seeing how excited she was, Tan Bengbeng simply allowed her to carry on.
Eventually, the result of her makeup looked like a monkey’s b.u.t.t. Despite being full of guilt, she couldn’t help bursting into uncontrollable laughter.
Tan Bengbeng was affected by her contagious laughter and broke into a faint smile as well…
That was the first time she had seen Tan Bengbeng smile.
Amidst the aloof, cold image she gave off, there was a sense of longing, as if she had been suppressing herself and now could finally release some of her emotions.
Nian Xiaomu could not understand that smile of hers but felt happy seeing it.
Eventually, she knew that Tan Bengbeng was able to smile, so she tried means and ways to amuse her.
During that hardest period of her life, Tan Bengbeng was right by her side.
But now, during the happiest moment of her life, Tan Bengbeng was unable to witness it.
Although she knew the chances were low, Nian Xiaomu still fished out her phone and, with a tinge of hope, dialed Tan Bengbeng’s number.
She kept praying in her heart that the call would go through.
She was hoping that in the next second she would hear Tan Bengbeng’s voice.
“The number you called is not available, please try again later…” A mechanical voice sounded from the phone, shattering the last bit of hope she had.
The whereabouts of her Bengbeng still remained unknown.
“Knock, knock!”
A knocking sound came from the door, surprising Nian Xiaomu.
She snapped back to her senses and instantly stood up from her chair, raising the bottom of her wedding gown and making her way to the door.
When she opened the door, there was not a single soul outside.
However, there was a box placed on the floor.
It didn’t look extremely huge but had a sticky note with the words “For Nian Xiaomu” written on it.
For her wedding, the whole church had been booked by Yu Yuehan.
Every spot, from the interior to the outside had been decorated properly.
Furthermore, countless security guards were present.
The gifts which the guests had brought all needed to go through security checks, and needless to say, there were plenty of surveillance cameras installed as well…
In the area of security, there would absolutely be no issues at all.
Moreover, looking at the packaging of the box, it looked like a gift from someone.
Nian Xiaomu turned to survey her surroundings but did not see anyone in particular.
When she looked at the entrance, two guards were still positioned there.
a.s.sured, she then took the box and went back into the lounge.
