Chapter 200 - 182 His Wife Who He Married Publicly and Honorably
The time for the wedding was approaching little by little, and Gu Qimiao’s emotions were becoming increasingly difficult to calm."I want to go to the bathroom."
"Nervous, right?" Jiajia said with a smile and then pointed to the right: "Just walk to the end and turn right to find the bathroom."
Gu Qimiao nodded, lifted her dress, and walked over.
There was a window at the end, just enough to see the wedding venue. Most of the guests had arrived; she didn’t know how many people were there, but it was bustling downstairs.
Sitting in their respective seats, people were chatting in small groups.
Scanning the scene, it seemed she didn’t see Liang Zixuan and Lu Qianwen; it seemed they hadn’t come.
Instead, she let out a sigh of relief. Although she had seen through Lu Qianwen’s true colors, she still felt a bit guilty about Gu Moming’s actions last time. Moreover, if Lu Qianwen was present, the wedding would undoubtedly become awkward. After all, she had previously announced her engagement to Shen Yanchen. If she attended, the reporters would certainly latch onto the topic.
Adding a few embellishments, it would be easy for Gu Qimiao to become the third party condemned by everyone.
"Miaomiao."
The sudden male voice brought Gu Qimiao back to her senses. She turned her head and saw Lu Jinxie walking out of the men’s restroom on the left.
She took a few steps back, but he had already walked up to her.
Lu Jinxie pinched his eyebrows and looked at her: "Don’t get married, okay?"
Gu Qimiao shrank her shoulders, reaching out to gently push him away, putting some distance between them, not giving him any hope, "Don’t come to find me anymore..."
Lu Jinxie grabbed her shoulders, his voice hoarse as he asked her: "Do you not remember anything from before? The person you love is me!"
He gripped her with some force, making Gu Qimiao frown in pain, "I haven’t lost my memory; I remember everything clearly. I don’t know you. The Yinyin you’re looking for isn’t me."
Lu Jinxie gave a bitter smile: "Miaomiao, I’ve always given you time, not wanting to force you, but I never thought that my concession would lead to this result."
He slowly released his hands, asking her: "Do you really not remember, or do you not want to remember?"
Gu Qimiao didn’t entangle herself with him. As soon as he let go, she ran into the nearby women’s restroom. When she came out, she specifically looked around to make sure he was gone before coming out with relief.
Returning to the lounge, the makeup artist came to tidy up her makeup. Dudu ran up to tell them it was time to go down; the wedding banquet was officially starting.
At the end of the red carpet, Shen Yanchen stood upright, his gaze tightly fixed on the bride slowly walking over. The camera flashes never ceased, and the emcee’s voice came through the surrounding speakers.
Mrs. Gu did everything to put on a good show, holding Gu Qimiao’s arm as she walked over, handing her daughter’s hand to Shen Yanchen as her mother’s role.
Amidst warm applause and cheers, confetti popped with a "bang," startling Gu Qimiao a bit, but then she smiled slightly, taking Shen Yanchen’s arm. She thought she might faint from happiness.
Yi Bao and another little boy were the flower bearers, holding small baskets, their chubby little hands scattering petals.
Accompanied by the music, step by step, they walked to the end of the red carpet, standing at the altar.
The emcee’s fluent script was in her ears, but Gu Qimiao didn’t listen much. Her mind was only filled with the man standing beside her at this moment.
After the vows were finished, Shen Yanchen said "I do" in a steady and firm voice, bringing Gu Qimiao back to reality.
"Miss Gu Qimiao, will you marry Mr. Shen Yanchen, love him, be faithful to him, for richer or poorer, in youth and old age, until death do you part, will you?"
Gu Qimiao answered without thinking, "I do."
Shen Yanchen held back his smile as the officiant stepped onto the stage, having the couple sign their names to officially issue the marriage certificate on the spot.
Gu Qimiao clearly didn’t expect this. She thought it was just a ceremony to announce to the public.
Seeing Shen Yanchen sign his name without hesitation, Gu Qimiao glanced over, took the pen, and signed her own name.
No matter what, she was happy in her heart.
Even if they divorced later, she would have been his lawful wife, with their names written together. Her title would be his ex-wife.
Getting rid of the sibling-like relationship was also pretty good.
In a short while, the marriage certificate was handed over, and in this moment of pure joy, there was another round of applause from the audience.
The emcee also became cheerful, "The groom may kiss the bride now."
Shen Yanchen smiled, turned slightly, and gently lifted Gu Qimiao’s veil with both hands. Even through the foundation, one could see the blush seeping from her skin. She was so shy.
