Chapter 239 Departure: Xuexue's Wedding
The morning sun eagerly pierced through the clouds, bathing the dreamlike church adorned with flowers. Today was the big day for Liu Qicheng and Yang Xuexue's wedding, and the whole world seemed to be cheering for the newlyweds.
Outside the church, luxury cars filed in and parked in designated spots. Liu Qicheng's father, Liu Xuan, dressed in a sharp suit with his hair neatly combed, stood at the church entrance greeting guests. A proud smile radiated from his face as he greeted acquaintances from time to time, as if to say, "Look, my son is getting married today!"
"Mr. Liu, congratulations!" a business partner who came to the wedding said with a smile.
"Haha, congratulations to you too! Thank you for coming to my son's wedding." Liu Xuan responded enthusiastically, his eyes narrowing into slits.
At this moment, Liu Qicheng's mother, Li Yuan, the usually decisive and efficient chairwoman of the Li Group, also changed into a gorgeous dress and walked over radiantly. She affectionately took Liu Xuan's arm and said to everyone with a smile, "Everyone must eat and drink well today and witness this happy moment for these two children."
Not far away, Liu Qicheng's eldest sister, Li Shiqing, and her husband, Zhang Chen, also arrived. Li Shiqing was three months pregnant, her belly slightly protruding. Zhang Chen carefully supported her, as if she were a rare treasure.
"Mom and Dad, we're here!" Li Shiqing greeted them with a smile.
Li Yuan quickly went to greet her, her eyes full of concern: "Shi Qing, are you tired from the journey? Come on, go inside and find a place to sit down, don't stand for too long."
"Mom, I'm not that delicate," Li Shiqing said with a smile. "Today is the big day of our departure, I can't miss it."
Just then, Liu Qicheng's second sister, Liu Yixin, and her husband, Fu Yu, arrived. Liu Yixin rushed over and hugged Li Shiqing tightly: "Sister, you're finally here! I can't wait to see how beautiful the bride is today!"
Fu Yu stood aside and greeted everyone with a smile: "Congratulations, Mom and Dad, you have another thoughtful daughter-in-law."
The group chatted and laughed as they entered the church. Inside, melodious music echoed in every corner, and the pure white flowers exuded a fragrant aroma, making one feel as if they were in a fairyland.
Liu Qicheng, dressed in a handsome suit, stood before the pastor, nervously and excitedly awaiting the arrival of his bride. His palms were slightly sweaty as he kept adjusting his bow tie, muttering to himself, "Xuexue, you must look beautiful."
Just then, the church doors slowly opened, and Yang Xuexue, dressed in a floor-length white wedding gown, walked in like a fairy descending to earth, accompanied by her mother. Her face was radiant with a happy smile, and her eyes were filled with anticipation for the future.
The moment Liu Qicheng saw Yang Xuexue, his eyes widened, and he involuntarily muttered, "Wow, Xuexue, you're so beautiful! What a blessing I have from my past life!"
Yang Xuexue walked up to Liu Qicheng, gently took his hand, and said with a smile, "Silly boy, you look handsome today too!"
The pastor cleared his throat and began the wedding ceremony. His voice was solemn and sacred: "Mr. Liu Qicheng, do you take Ms. Yang Xuexue to be your wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to stay with her till death do you part?"
Without hesitation, Liu Qicheng answered loudly, "I do!" His voice seemed to penetrate the entire church.
"Miss Yang Xuexue, are you willing to marry Mr. Liu Qicheng, to support him through thick and thin, and to walk hand in hand with him through life?" the pastor asked again.
With tears welling up in her eyes, Yang Xuexue said firmly, "I do!"
Amidst the blessings of the crowd, Liu Qicheng and Yang Xuexue exchanged rings. At that moment, the whole world seemed to stand still, leaving only their loving gazes upon each other.
After the wedding ceremony, everyone proceeded to the hotel's banquet hall. The hall was brightly lit and filled with laughter and joy. Friends and family gathered around, offering their sincerest blessings to the newlyweds.
"Hey bro, congratulations! You'd better treat Xuexue well from now on, or we older brothers and sisters won't let you off the hook." Zhang Chen patted Liu Qicheng on the shoulder with a smile.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Xuexue," Liu Qicheng said confidently.
Liu Yixin also came over and said with a smile, "Qicheng, don't forget that you'll be a married man in the future, so you can't be as playful as before!"
"Second sister, I know!" Liu Qicheng scratched his head sheepishly.
At this moment, Yang Xuexue's mother came over, her eyes full of relief: "Children, seeing you so happy makes me feel at ease. Xuexue, you and Qicheng should support each other and live a good life together."
"Mom, don't worry, we will." Yang Xuexue took her mother's arm and said with a smile.
Li Yuan walked over, took Yang Xuexue's mother's hand and said, "Mother-in-law, from now on we are family. Don't hesitate to ask if you need anything."
"Okay, okay!" Yang Xuexue's mother nodded with a smile.
The banquet began, and one delicious dish after another was served. Everyone enjoyed the food and shared their joy.
Liu Qicheng raised his glass, stood up and said, "Thank you to all our relatives and friends for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my and Xuexue's wedding. Today is the most important day of our lives, and we hope that you can share this happiness with us."
Everyone raised their glasses and drank them down. The banquet hall instantly became lively and bustling, with blessings and laughter mingling together like a joyful symphony.
"Come on, everyone, have some food! Try this dish; it's the hotel's signature dish," Liu Xuan warmly invited everyone.
Looking at the delicious food on the table, Li Shiqing said helplessly, "Sigh, I'm pregnant now, and there are so many things I can't eat. I'm so craving them."
Zhang Chen said considerately from the side, "Honey, just bear with it. After the baby is born, I'll take you out to eat your fill."
“Brother-in-law is so much better, unlike my husband, who only knows how to eat.” Liu Yixin deliberately glared at Fu Yu.
Fu Yu quickly explained, "I'm innocent! I was just thinking you like it, so I gave you more."
Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this. The atmosphere in the banquet hall became even more lively.
Halfway through the banquet, Liu Qicheng suddenly stood up and said mysteriously, "Dear friends and family, I have a special surprise for Xuexue."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and a group of children dressed in soccer jerseys ran in, holding flowers in their hands, and stood in a heart shape.
"Xuexue, do you know what my favorite sport is?" Liu Qicheng asked with a smile.
Yang Xuexue asked with a puzzled look, "Football? What's wrong?"
"Yes, football is an indispensable part of my life, but since I met you, you have become the most important person in my life," Liu Qicheng said affectionately. "Today, I want football to witness our love."
After saying that, he took the flowers from the child, knelt on one knee, and said to Yang Xuexue, "Xuexue, I love you. Will you walk with me through every spring, summer, autumn, and winter in the future?"
Yang Xuexue was moved to tears and nodded vigorously: "I do!"
Everyone applauded and cheered. This special surprise brought the wedding to a climax.
After the banquet, relatives and friends left one after another. Liu Qicheng and Yang Xuexue stood at the hotel entrance, waving goodbye to everyone.
"I'm so happy today!" Yang Xuexue said happily, leaning against Liu Qicheng's chest.
"Yes, this is the beginning of our new life. We will create more wonderful memories together in the future," Liu Qicheng said with a smile.
Seeing the newlyweds' happiness, Liu Qicheng's family felt immensely gratified. They knew that from this day forward, Liu Qicheng and Yang Xuexue would walk hand in hand through every stage of life, facing future challenges and happiness together.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, Liu Qicheng and Yang Xuexue walked hand in hand towards their new life. This wedding, filled with laughter and emotion, will become one of the most unforgettable memories of their lives.
