Chapter 505 He Looked More Handsome than Ever
Xiao Yunyun, as well as Luo Xiaoxi’s friends, had just arrived with other bridesmaids when Luo Xiaoxi put on her wedding dress.
The room was soon filled with girls talking to each other, looking as lively as the party the previous night, which seriously interfered with the makeup and styling process.
Mrs. Luo had to lead others to the living room on the second floor to leave Su Jianan and Xiao Yunyun alone with Luo Xiaoxi.
Luo Xiaoxi gazed at Xiao Yunyun in the mirror while cooperating with the makeup artist. She said with a teasing smile, “Yunyun, you look good.”
Xiao Yunyun was stunned for a while before figuring out the meaning behind Luo Xiaoxi’s words. She glanced at Su Jianan as if she had been caught doing something wrong. She said in embarrassment, “Yeah...”
Su Jianan immediately noticed Xiao Yunyun’s unnatural look. She asked, “What happened?”
“No big deal,” Luo Xiaoxi said, “Yunyun got drunk at the bar last night. Shen Yuechuan drove her back home.”
Su Jianan nodded after gazing at Xiao Yunyun for a while. “You’re right. Anyway... it’s a matter of time.”
Xiao Yunyun blushed at once. “Nothing happened between us!”
Su Jianan said in bewilderment, “You told me nothing happened when I saw you two come out of the chalet together on the island, and I believed you. But now it’s the second time you’ve stayed overnight with him. You say nothing happened again. How’s that possible?”
Xiao Yunyun pointed at the lamp on the dresser and said, “I swear it. Nothing ever happened!”
The lamp suddenly went out before the others could utter a word.
Not only Su Jianan and Luo Xiaoxi but also the makeup artist burst into laughter.
Xiao Yunyun stared at the lamp with a mixture of disbelief, astonishment and despair—
She thought to herself, “D*mn it! How dare a lamp do this to me?!”
Luo Xiaoxi compressed her lips coated with lipstick and said, “Yunyun, a lamp can’t lie. There must be a bond between Shen Yuechuan and you. Just admit it. Jianan and I won’t laugh at a grown-up like you.”
“But there is nothing between us.” Xiao Yunyun put her hands up like surrendering. “Could you two please stop making fun of Shen Yuechuan and me? It would be embarrassing if he hears about this.”
Luo Xiaoxi wagged her forefinger. “Yunyun, you’re wrong. Yuechuan would grin from ear to ear if he knew.”
From her experience of courting Su Yicheng for a long time, Luo Xiaoxi could tell that a man could only feel glad instead of embarrassed to hear the rumors about love affairs between him and the one he had feelings for.
To her disappointment, Xiao Yunyun didn’t get her point at all. Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and said, “You said it. Shen Yuechuan isn’t normal!”
“...” Su Jianan stood there, not knowing what to say.
Luo Xiaoxi didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. “Yunyun, you’ve never been in a relationship, have you?”
Xiao Yunyun thought she had been disdained. She didn’t answer the question and asked instead, “Is that weird?”
“No.” Luo Xiaoxi shook her head. “You’ve never been in a relationship. No wonder...” She thought that Xiao Yunyun should have gotten her point if she had been in love with someone in the past.
Xiao Yunyun failed to figure out Luo Xiaoxi’s words. She muttered, “I’ve never been in a relationship... why isn’t she surprised?” She wondered, “Does it look like love evades me?”
Luo Xiaoxi and Su Jianan were amused by Xiao Yunyun’s poor look while she was even more confused, wondering what the two were laughing at.
Luo Xiaoxi finally got her makeup and styling process done at around 10 o’clock. She couldn’t feel assured, so she asked Su Jianan and Xiao Yunyun to have a good look.
“Perfect!”
“Perfect!”
Luo Xiaoxi felt relieved after hearing Su Jianan and Xiao Yunyun’s spontaneous answers. She checked the time and couldn’t help but wonder, “It’s already past 10 o’clock. Where is Su Yicheng?”
The door was pushed open at that very moment, as if Luo Xiaoxi’s mind had been read. A girl looked in and said, “Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi. The bridegroom is at the gate! Oh, his best man is so handsome and the other groomsmen are all dashing gentlemen. The ladies in the living room are crazy about them!”
“Come on—” Luo Xiaoxi said, “You’re not here to watch handsome gentlemen today.”
The girl hastened to say, “Oh, yes. We’re here to block the door. Forget about those gentlemen. You can count on us. Yunyun, let’s go!”
It was Xiao Yunyun’s first time to help block the door during a wedding. She lifted her gown and rushed out of the room with excitement after saying a few supportive words to Luo Xiaoxi.
Xiao Yunyun was shocked by what she saw as soon as she came out of the room.
There were more than twenty girls lined in pairs from the stairs to the door of Luo Xiaoxi’s room acting as twelve barriers, and three bridesmaids were at the front as the first barrier.
“Yunyun, you are the maid of honor. Just go ahead.” The girl pushed Xiao Yunyun forward and said, “First of all, show them that we are not to be trifled with.”
Su Yicheng stepped into the house with his groomsmen and friends as soon as Xiao Yunyun walked forward to guard in front of those girls along with the three bridesmaids as the first barrier.
All the girls on the second floor, including Xiao Yunyun, were stunned.
Su Yicheng looked more handsome than ever that day!
The tailor-made and clean-styled suit with an exquisite workmanship flattered both his incredible physique and perfect body proportions.
It was an elegant black suit with a supreme texture, highlighting his inborn nobleness and charm along with a matching black bow tie.
The 1.85 m tall Su Yicheng stood there upright, looking even more exalted and graceful than ever.
Lu Boyan and Shen Yuechuan who followed Su Yicheng were also handsome enough to drive those girls crazy.
Lu Boyan had a face like a wonderful piece of art. His well-defined facial features looked handsome and charming. He was so cold and elegant that others found it hard to get close to him, which made those girls even crazier about him instead of dispelling their infatuation for him.
Compared with Lu Boyan, Shen Yuechuan looked much more easygoing.
Shen Yuechuan’s suit, which had been tailored in Paris, and the matching tie made him look like a graceful scion. What’s more, his mixture of elegance and cynicism fascinated those girls instead of taking him as a frivolous man.
The three gentlemen had already set those girls’ hearts racing. While the group of young talents following them could also make them go mad for their pretty faces and remarkable temperaments.
Su Yicheng politely greeted Lao Luo and Mrs. Luo after entering the house. “Dad, Mom, I’m here for Xiaoxi.”
Lao Luo nodded; Mrs. Luo smiled and said, “It’s almost time. Go upstairs. Xiaoxi is in her room.” She looked upstairs and then gave him a helpless smile. “Look at these young faces. A surprise is waiting for you.”
Shen Yuechuan glanced at Xiao Yunyun who was at the head of the bridesmaids and smiled. “Auntie, it’s no big deal. Let me show you how I rise above it.”
Seeing Su Yicheng walking upstairs with his groomsmen, the three bridesmaids cried with excitement, “Get ready!”
The girls didn’t know that the group of gentlemen walking upstairs were either corporate executives or business veterans who could only show their interest instead of fear when faced with those bridesmaids, although they weren’t like Su Yicheng or Lu Boyan.
The bridesmaid beside Xiao Yunyun pushed her forward and motioned for her to speak before Su Yicheng could reach the second floor within a few steps.
Xiao Yunyun had no choice but to open her arms and say, “Stop! The custom here is that you must get past us before meeting your bride!”
Su Yicheng and Lu Boyan stepped backward tacitly.
Su Yicheng winked at Shen Yuechuan and said, “It’s up to you.”
Shen Yuechuan seemed to have been prepared for that. With hands in his pant pockets, he strode upstairs so his face was level with Xiao Yunyun’s; he looked right into her eyes.
He looked calm and relaxed as if condescending to Xiao Yunyun.
Xiao Yunyun was supposed to show her confidence at that moment. However, she knew she couldn’t match Shen Yuechuan’s inborn aura of confidence.
Xiao Yunyun began to lose confidence in herself and then shrank back a little. “Shen Yuechuan, what do you want?”
Shen Yuechuan rapped Xiao Yunyun’s forehead with his forefinger and said, “You wicked girl! What are you doing!?”
“Ouch—” Xiao Yunyun felt the pain and stepped backward with one hand covering her forehead. “I... I’m blocking the door!”
“Do you know who you are blocking?” Shen Yuechuan narrowed his eyes. “One is your cousin, and the other is your cousin-in-law. How dare you block your cousin in his wedding day? Little lady, which side are you on?”
Xiao Yunyun was stunned. She thought that Shen Yuechuan’s words... seemed to make sense. She wondered whether to continue blocking her cousin or not.
However, Xiao Yunyun suddenly realized that it was just a wedding game!
“D*mn! Shen Yuechuan looks so serious that I was almost misled. It’s just a relaxing game, isn’t it?”
With that, Xiao Yunyun stared at Shen Yuechuan and said, “My cousin’s bride asked me to do this! Your grudge against me is equivalent to your grievance against her!”
Shen Yuechuan felt it a headache to see Xiao Yunyun respond quickly beyond his expectation.
Realizing that she had succeeded in deflating Shen Yuechuan, Xiao Yunyun kicked him and said, “How dare you have grievances against my cousin’s bride? You must have a death wish!”
Xiao Yunyun’s kick hurt Shen Yuechuan. Owing to courtesy, he could only clench his teeth and bear it silently. He stared at her and said, “You wicked girl. Wait and see!”
Xiao Yunyun made a face at Shen Yuechuan. “Bring it on!”
Su Yicheng couldn’t stand it any longer. He turned his head and whispered to Lu Boyan, “They are too naive. It’s a waste of time. It’s up to you now.”
Lu Boyan nodded and advanced two steps. His height and his inborn aura of confidence silenced those girls who were at the top of the stairs.
His glance swept over the bridesmaids in the front row. “What do you want?”
The bridesmaids and those girls all gasped at once. Even Xiao Yunyun, who had seen Lu Boyan many times, was amazed by his charm.
