Chapter 1196 - 1029: Never Listened to Explanations, Never Gave a Chance (Part 11)
Zhang Zhentian was standing up for Xia Jing, not allowing anyone to speak disrespectfully of his wife. He was a man with a strong sense of possessiveness.
"Now, please use your warmest applause to welcome the stars of today, the bride and groom, to the stage for their speeches!" The host addressed the audience.
The applause thundered through the skies. Zhang Zhentian wrapped Xia Jing’s hand in his own warm hand and led her to the stage. All eyes were on Xia Jing as Li Jiayuan and Xiao Wei watched the wedding from the side. They were genuinely happy for Xia Jing and Zhang Zhentian, knowing better than anyone the challenges the couple had overcome to reach this moment.
"Thank you for your support. Now we officially start today’s theme." The host faced the audience: "To the handsome groom, are you willing to marry the beautiful girl before you, to love and cherish her for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to care for her for the rest of your life, never forsaking her? Are you willing?"
Zhang Zhentian took the microphone and faced everyone, loudly proclaiming, "I am willing. No matter what difficulties we encounter in life, I will always be by her side. No matter how the future unfolds, this life, I will love only her, care for her, and cherish her for a lifetime, never leaving her!"
Woo...
Screams erupted from the crowd below. Xia Jing felt as if she were living in a dream. She had never imagined that Zhang Zhentian would publicly declare his love for her like this. If she had known he would say such words at their wedding, would she have needed a formal proposal?
"Now let us ask our beautiful bride! Bride, are you willing to marry the man before you? For richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, are you willing to be by the groom’s side for a lifetime, never forsaking him? Are you willing?"
Tears streaming down her face, Xia Jing said to Zhang Zhentian, "I am willing. No matter the problems or events we face in life, I will stand by him for a lifetime, never leaving him, accompanying him with mutual respect until we grow old together!"
"Now the groom may kiss the bride!" As soon as the host said this, the audience began to cheer.
"Kiss... Kiss..."
Xia Jing suddenly felt very embarrassed. They had never kissed in front of so many people. But now, there was no turning back; a kiss was inevitable.
"Xia Jing, you’re so beautiful today. Shouldn’t you be a bit proactive? Kiss him!" Li Jiayuan chimed in, taking this opportunity to tease Xia Jing. She never dared to be so bold in teasing her any other time, so...
Seeing Xia Jing growing more embarrassed, Zhang Zhentian, to save her from further awkwardness, gently cupped her face and kissed her deeply!
Zhang Yichen never expected his family to become as harmonious as it was now, nor did he foresee such a peaceful moment between his parents, who had always spent time arguing. He had never seen them getting along so well.
This made him forget the life path he desired and the life he wanted to live. He was numb, unsure if his current situation was a correct or incorrect outcome, unable to see the road ahead clearly, though others might have already figured out what his future would be.
He remembered clearly that someone once told him, although you can’t see what you will be like three years from now, someone can already see your future clearly. He would never forget those words. Now, he was like the self of three years later, having passed many such three-year periods.
Zhang Zhentian resolved the situation for Xia Jing, but Li Jiayuan wasn’t willing to let Xia Jing off so easily, saying to her, "Xia Jing, Xiao Wei sees you as a sister. If you don’t mind, can I start calling you sister too?"
Xia Jing genuinely didn’t anticipate Li Jiayuan saying this. They had been rivals in love before, yet now they were becoming sisters. Wasn’t the change happening too quickly? Xia Jing herself was feeling overwhelmed by the rapid shift!
