Su Xiyan raised her hand habitually, intending to hit Chen Shuo, but paused mid-air, hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered it.
Chen Shuo, oblivious to the danger, added: "Actually, I was a bit hesitant, afraid I might be mistaken."
"After all, I've tasted too few times to remember clearly."
"To recognize your lip print at a glance, I feel I should taste a few more times."
"That way, I can firmly remember every detail in my heart."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Shuo felt a cold aura emanating from beside him, as if from a millennia-old glacier.
The next second, Su Xiyan's hand had transformed into steel claws, fiercely pinching Chen Shuo's arm.
Chen Shuo couldn't help but let out a low cry.
Fortunately, the whole room was filled with the festive atmosphere of welcoming the bride, and no one noticed the sweet interaction between Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan.
Su Xiyan waved the small red envelope in her hand, looking smug: "This is the money I earned from blocking the door just now. I've calculated, it's just enough for a meal at the most upscale seafood restaurant in Su City."
"If I'm in a good mood, I might consider taking you there."
Chen Shuo put on a cold face and said haughtily: "I don't care about going there at all!"
Su Xiyan stuffed the red envelope into her small purse: "Since someone doesn't want to go, I'll invite Xin Ran to go with me."
"It's just right for two people."
Chen Shuo had heard about the most upscale seafood restaurant in Su City when he first came to study at Nanli University. But as a college student from a middle-class family, he never had spare money to eat fresh seafood at such a high-end place.
The financial power of the household was still in Su Xiyan's hands!
Chen Shuo was just a college student, and apart from being handsome and tall, he didn't seem to have any other advantages.
So, in the next second, Chen Shuo learned what it meant to "eat his words" in real-time.
"I think you still need a driver to take you there."
Su Xiyan smiled: "Alright! The driver should remember to be professional."
Chen Shuo grinned mischievously: "I'm an experienced driver, my driving skills are top-notch!"
Su Xiyan didn't react at first, until she saw Chen Shuo's naughty look and finally understood.
"Chen Shuo! Can't you be serious for once??"
Chen Shuo's eyes immediately turned innocent: "How am I not being serious?"
Su Xiyan's little fist hit Chen Shuo: "Didn't you say you were an experienced driver? How is that being serious?"
Chen Shuo's eyes were full of purity: "I got my driver's license as soon as I turned eighteen, and I've been driving for a long time now. With rich driving experience, of course I count as an experienced driver!"
"Su Xiyan, that's what I meant by experienced driver. What were you thinking?"
"I get it now! It turns out you were the one with the dirty mind, right?"
Looking at Chen Shuo's fox-like eyes, his handsome face full of smugness.
Su Xiyan finally realized that she had been tricked by Chen Shuo again!!
How outrageous!
Su Xiyan showered him with another round of little punches, and Chen Shuo took the opportunity to pull her into his arms.
Su Xiyan was still struggling, her little face flushed! At the scene of welcoming the bride, surrounded by her relatives and family members, if they saw her blushing like this, wouldn't her image as the aloof campus beauty crumble?
Chen Shuo lowered his head and gently kissed Su Xiyan's forehead.
He moved closer to Su Xiyan, his familiar warm breath wandering on her neck, giving her a tingling sensation.
Chen Shuo lowered his voice, speaking so that only the two of them could hear: "In the future, I'll bring you home as my bride like this too."
Su Xiyan, who had been struggling until now, suddenly froze.
What did Chen Shuo just say?
She didn't hear clearly and wanted to hear him say it again!
The atmosphere at the bride welcoming scene reached its peak as the groom successfully received the bride.
Everyone cheered, laughed, and blessed, crowding around as the groom carried the bride out of the room.
Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo followed behind, also basking in the joyous atmosphere.
The bustling continued until evening, when it was finally time for the wedding banquet.
Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan no longer had the anticipation and yearning they had in the morning.
Both of them had only one word in their hearts: tired!
If being a groomsman and bridesmaid was this tiring, wouldn't the bride and groom be even more exhausted?
As the best man and maid of honor, Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan stood with the newlyweds at the wedding reception, greeting the guests attending the wedding.
Taking advantage of a less busy moment, Chen Shuo leaned close to Su Xiyan and asked in a low voice: "Do you still want to have various styles of weddings?"
Su Xiyan was so tired she could barely shake her head: "Let's forget about it!"
"How about a destination wedding instead?"
Chen Shuo nodded, and amidst their exhaustion, they reached a consensus.
It turns out, committing to one person for a lifetime is such a joyful thing.
Chen Shuo looked at Su Xiyan, unable to suppress a gentle smile at the corners of his mouth.
The state of their relationship seemed a bit more complex than that of couples in the typical honeymoon phase.
There was an element of passionate love, but more than that, it was the tacit understanding of an old married couple!
The wedding banquet was the main event!
The hotel parking lot was now filled with many luxury cars, most belonging to guests attending the wedding.
In the largest banquet hall, round tables were set up everywhere. Each table was laden with various delicious appetizers and drinks, including red and white wine.
Dozens of tables filled the entire banquet hall.
The ceremony hadn't started yet, and guests were holding wine glasses, gathering in small groups to greet each other.
Sheng Xueyao's family, the Sheng family, was originally a prestigious and respected clan, and her mother was from the Su family, basically making it a strong alliance.
Add to that the groom's family, which was on par with the Sheng family.
As a result, all the big shots of Yu Hua City had gathered here.
Usually, these influential people had regular interactions, and this wedding banquet provided an opportunity for them to gather together.
The five tables in front of the stage, two of them were occupied by the elders and closest relatives of the bride and groom.
The other three were for the super VIPs of Yu Hua City.
Those who could sit by the stage were all important figures!
The wedding decorations were extremely luxurious, with a high dragon arch temporarily installed on the stage. The arch was adorned with various flowers and other decorations, concealing the outline of the iron frame itself, showing only a profusion of flowers and splendor.
Su Xiyan had already gone with the other bridesmaids to prepare for the entrance ceremony with the bride.
Chen Shuo sat with the groom in the rest area by the stage, taking the opportunity to drink some water.
Getting married was really exhausting!
Inadvertently, he suddenly noticed a staff member behaving very strangely!
For such a grand wedding, there were quite a lot of staff members. Logically, all staff should be very skilled.
However, this staff member, wearing the small vest of the wedding planning company, seemed at a loss when faced with a bunch of electronic equipment, not knowing how to debug it.
