CHAPTER 445
While the guests sat waiting. The mothers of the bride and the groom stepped forward according to the priest. Based on tradition, they lit two white paper-coloured candles and placed them back on the flower-decorated altar.
"Okay, bro. We have to leave you here now to escort the ladies in. Your bride has arrived," Ye Chaoxiang informed him.
"Sigh... Alright. I'll try to be fine," Li Fengjin said with a sigh.
"Just take in deep breaths, exhale calmly and smile because she'll be needing that smile."
"Alright."
"Here... I know your palms are sweaty. Good luck," Ye Chaoxiang passed him a spare white handkerchief before he left with the other groomsmen.
As soon as they left, the priest asked everyone to stand as the bridesmaids and the groomsmen walks hand in arm down the aisle. The bridesmaid was dressed in gold shimmering gowns of the same style and design.
Even their hair was made into the same bridal styles. They had white roses attached to the bun at the back of their heads. As for the groomsmen, they all wore black tuxedoes with white roses pinned to the left side of their tuxedo's collar. While Li Fengjin had a red rose on.
As the maid of honour and best man of the bride and the groom, Ning Xiaozhi and Ye Chaoxiang were in the lead.
While the rest headed for the seats on the right first row, they both stood a step below the altar where the couple would stand. Following closely behind them was the ring before who is none other than Bai Xiaojin.
He wore a white suit of the same design as his daddy. He held the red pillow on which the gold rings were placed. The guests gasped in shock and awe as he walked confidently and carefully.
Whispers about him oddly similar to the groom on the altar soon echoed in the church. As Bai Xiaojin walked past, the flower girl, Ye Lee Ai followed while throwing white rose petals on the red carpet they were walking on.
Gu Mingzhe and An Daiyu also held baskets like Ye Lee Ai's and did the same thing she did. He was also wearing a white suit but with a different design. While Ye Lee Ai and An Daiyu wore white gowns.
They all looked like little flower fairies carving the occasion. The guests could not help but smile at how cute they all looked.
On getting to the altar, Bai Xiaojin gave the rings to Ye Chaoxiang and received a pat on his head from Li Fengjin. After that, he accepted Ye Lee Ai's hand that was stretched to him and they both walked to their respective grandparents.
"You did a good job, my baby," Jiang Meilin and Mrs Li praised Bai Xiaojin as he sat between them.
Soon enough the guests who were still whispering became quiet as the music playing became a little louder indicating that the winter bride, has finally arrived
All eyes immediately trailed to the tall door that was already wide open. Then she came into view the entrance. She held a bouquet of white, red, pink and green roses.
Just as it was meant to be, she captured the eyes and hearts of the guests. Her veil did cover her face but people could discern that there was a beauty underneath the veil.
She took two steps into the church and was meant by her grandfather, old man Jiang.
He gave her a warm and encouraging smile as he lifted his folded right hand for her to take. Bai Renxiang returned the smile and slid her left hand into his.
"Ready, my precious pearl?" He asked.
"Ready, grandpa."
Together, they took fluent steps with heads held high and shoulders squares. They made sure this pace matched the rhythm of the music player by the pianist and other musical instrumentalists.
Whispers of how beautiful she looked, how her wedding dress stole their eyes sounded. Most of them even shamelessly took out their phones to take a picture of it. Some decided to have a video of it.
Bai Renxiang let out a shaking breath with all the attention towards her. She could see some of her ex-colleagues she used to work with at Emperor's Enterprise. They smiled and waved at her.
Bai Renxiang smiled back even if they could not see her clearly because of the veil. Amidst those smiles and eyes focussed on her, there was one she could not see.
That one held a hint of regret in it. It was Fu Bolin. He followed her every move as he unknowingly held his breath. Meanwhile, Lin Ying, Bai Ming and grandma Bai stared at the bride with hate.
Not only that, the mother and daughter pair were filled with envy. It should have been them, was their thought. They should have been the ones walking down that aisle and being the mother-in-law of China's richest man.
Oblivious of their thoughts, the two people on the red carpet covered in white else petals, continued down the aisle that now seemed to have become longer. Bai Renxiang's hand squeezed on her strength which was the old man. He whispered for her to relax and just focus on her husband.
That's right. Her husband.
Her eyes immediately moved to him. She let out a soft sigh. He looked as dashing as ever like her mother told her he was. His eyes never left her figure as she slowly approached. His smile helped calm her nerves.
She noticed that she was the only one that was feeling nervous. But Li Fengjin masked that nervousness by being stunned senseless by her. His bride has taken his breath away with her out-of-this-world appearance.
Ye Chaoxiang let out a low chuckle looking at his friend being so lovestruck by his wife. He could only shale his head.
Not long after, Bai Renxiang was standing before him. They stood unmoving just staring lovingly at each other.
"Get back to the wedding, you two."
