Chapter 1316: The Wedding (11)
Makeup started after breakfast. After everything was in order, Xia Nuannuan called out, “They’re coming, they’re coming! I can see that the wedding car has arrived.”
Everyone got onto their feet upon hearing this, and they shut the door excitedly.
Five minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
Before Qiao Lian could speak, s.h.i.+ Nianyao dashed up and shouted, “If you want me to open the door, hand over the red packets.”
At once, two big red envelopes appeared through the crack under the door.
s.h.i.+ Nianyao raised an eyebrow and tossed one red envelope to Xia Nuannuan, while stuffing the other into her own bag. Then she continued watching the door.
Shen Liangchuan spoke, “Xiao Qiao, open the door.”
Qiao Lian stood up and was about to walk over to the door, when s.h.i.+ Nianyao continued, “If you want us to open the door, sing a song for Lian Lian to proclaim your love.”
Errr.
Sing?
Singing wasn’t something Shen Liangchuan did, not even when he had taken part in the talent show.
They wondered how he would do at singing.
As they were pondering, Shen Liangchuan asked, “What song do you want me to sing?”
s.h.i.+ Nianyao thought for a moment and said, “Sing ‘Marry You.’”
Qiao Lian: …
Qiao Lian paused for a while. Then she heard him sing.
Shen Liangchuan’s voice was deep and very pleasant, but this song didn’t seem very suitable for his voice range.
Hence, he had to change his key.
By the time he was done singing, Xia Nuannuan and s.h.i.+ Nianyao were laughing so much that they couldn’t straighten up.
s.h.i.+ Nianyao said, “How unexpected that the great Best Actor isn’t good at something! Hahaha.”
Ignoring the remark, Shen Liangchuan said as though nothing had happened, “Will you open the door now?”
Resting her chin on her knuckle as if deep in thought, s.h.i.+ Nianyao said, “Let me think what else we want.”
Shen Liangchuan replied immediately, “How about I give you Mo Xicheng? Will that open the door now?”
s.h.i.+ Nianyao was stumped.
Those words were pure poison.
Immediately, she stopped making things difficult and threw open the door, saying, “Best Actor Shen, come right in please!”
Everyone was flabbergasted.
The annoyed Qiao Lian pointed at s.h.i.+ Nianyao and said, “Nianyao, you traitor, forgetting your friend the moment you see your lover. It’s all about the men! You caved in just like that!”
s.h.i.+ Nianyao’s gaze fell on the man in a black suit standing behind Shen Liangchuan. He had a flower pinned on his coat pocket. The obvious Best Man bad turned beet red.
She stuck her tongue out at Mo Xicheng and then turned to look at Qiao Lian, saying, “Lian Lian, it’s not as though you’ve only just gotten to know me.”
Qiao Lian was speechless.
The moment Shen Liangchuan entered the room, he saw Qiao Lian standing there in all her beauty and radiance, grinning back at him.
His eyes lit up at once.
Quickly, he walked up to her.
Just as he was about to sweep her up into his arms, Xia Nuannuan exclaimed, “Big Brother, you have to look for her shoes!”
Stunned, Shen Liangchuan asked, “What do you mean look for shoes?”
Laughing, Xia Nuannuan explained, “Lian Lian doesn’t have her shoes on. We hid her heels, you’ve got to look for them before you can take her away.”
The man was stumped.
His eyes wandered around the room.
He walked over to the side cabinet, opened the doors and started searching.
After a while, all he managed to find was one of the heels stuffed between the crack of two sofa seats.
But where was the other shoe?
Mystified, he continued looking.
Behind him, Shen Zihao hooted. “Good grief, Big Brother, will your big task of taking a wife be thwarted by a shoe? Hahaha, the auspicious hour has arrived and you can’t find a shoe.”
Frowning now, Shen Liangchuan looked at Qiao Lian and said helplessly, “Give me a hint.”
