Not long after, the ceremony officially started and the beautiful bride walked down the aisle with Zhi Ruo"s uncle.In the old host"s memories, she and her cousin had a quite good relations.h.i.+p as Zhi Mei only had a few years older and they often spent time together but as they grew up, they slowly grew estranged. Zhi Ruo was focused on inheriting the company and her cousin, Zhi Mei, was studying abroad.
Arriving at the altar, the bride and groom emotionally said their vows and gently kissed. Zhi Ruo followed the crowd and happily clapped. Watching marriage always made her happy, probably why she decided to become a wedding planner.
Marriage was so full of love and happiness that it became infectious to whoever was watching, " I guess it was my way to escape my loneliness... "
Zhi Ruo followed her parents and went to personally congratulate her cousin and wished her a lot of happiness and joy in her relations.h.i.+p.
Zhi Mei smiled with tears in her eyes and held her hands, " Thank you Ruoruo! I can"t believe it"s been so long since we last met! We have to go out somewhere together! "
" Of course! As soon as you"ll come back from your honeymoon, I"ll s.n.a.t.c.h you away and we"ll have a lot of fun! " Zhi Ruo happily agreed. They said that a close cousin was like another sibling, she never had a sister so she really wanted to try.
Zhi Mei observed the smile on her cousin"s face and was slightly stunned. She knew her cousin pretty well since birth and although they separated for a few years, she knew that her cousin didn"t like to smile much but seeing her radiant smile, Zhi Mei was really surprised.
" Look at you, smiling so beautifully! You look so much better with a smile! I always told you to smile more! " Zhi Mei joyfully laughed.
" I guess you were right then! " Zhi Ruo was a bit anxious at the back of her heart.
" What happened? " Zhi Mei leaned over to her ear, " Is it because of the handsome man standing behind you? "
Zhi Mei was a fan of romance stories so she immediately spotted w.a.n.g Yong diligently waiting for Zhi Ruo and dotingly looking at her.
At his mention, Zhi Ruo looked back at w.a.n.g Yong who gave her a soft smile and quickly turned back her head, " Maybe... "
" OMG?! Is he my future cousin-in-law?! " Zhi Mei excitedly exclaimed, " We could go on double dates! "
" No! " Zhi Ruo shook her head.
" Then what is it? " Zhi Mei remembered that her cousin was almost completely uninterested in love.
" He makes me very happy but it"s not those emotions... " Zhi Ruo said.
Zhi Mei looked at her younger cousin, clearly having an infatuated face and questioned, " Do you like spending time with him? "
" Yes. " Zhi Ruo nodded almost instantly.
" Does your heart beat very fast when you are with him? Does it want to leap out and fly in the sky? " Zhi Mei inquired.
" Yeah, very fast! " Zhi Ruo"s eyes brightened as she heard the symptoms of her maybe illness.
" Do you always want to be near him and touch him? " Zhi Mei asked with a smile.
" This silly cousin of mine, it"s so obvious already and she doesn"t even know it... "
" I mean... I don"t mind it when we have physical contact " Zhi Ruo replied, a bit embarra.s.sed.
" Do you want to hug and kiss him? " Zhi Mei reached the juicy questions.
" I don"t know...It"s kind of weird... " Zhi Ruo answered, her facial expression conflicted.
" Just imagine! If you can imagine it, then it"s a yes! " Zhi Mei was not only a lover of romantic stories, but she was also an expert.
Zhi Ruo looked at her cousin"s expecting gaze and tried to picture w.a.n.g Yong holding her by the waist... " Huh...it"s surprisingly easy...is it because he hugs me so often? "
She then shyly imagined them kissing, their bodies getting close and their lips almost meeting when suddenly her embarra.s.sing meter broke and her imagination came to a stop.
" So? " Zhi Mei laughed at Zhi Ruo"s red face.
Her cold cousin was actually a tsundere*, who would have known?
" I can"t imagine kissing yet but hugging is pretty easy... " Zhi Ruo answered, a bit shocked by her own answer.
" d.a.m.n it, could I really be falling for him?! Falling for the big boss that I initially thought was creepy? " Zhi Ruo slightly panicked in her mind.
" Okay, last question! The most important one! If you could, would you want to spend the rest of your life with him? "
" I mean... I don"t really know but as far as I am concerned I wouldn"t mind... " Zhi Ruo finally said after careful consideration.
" That"s the answer! Dear cousin, these are all symptoms of you falling in love! You are lovesick, more precisely, your symptoms will aggravate in the future! " Zhi Mei excitingly cheered.
" Shhhh, not so loud! " Zhi Ruo calmed down her loud cousin and sighed.
" Are you sure? " Zhi Ruo asked hesitatingly.
" Trust in your expert in love cousin! " Zhi Mei proudly patted her chest.
" Wifey! If you keep chatting, everyone is going to be starving by the time we arrive at the venue if you keep chattinG! " Zhi Mei"s husband called a bit exasperatingly. He recognized that face on his wife"s face, definitely another love story!
Mini theatre:
Zhi Mei: " Okay, last question! The most important one! If you could, would you want to bed him! "
Zhi Ruo: ... * looks at w.a.n.g Yong * ┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ) * remembers his muscles and abs *
" Yes. "
Zhi Mei: Great! Now go get married! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
