“Liuli, wake up!” Lin Yu called out.

“Yeah, Mom said she needs to wake up early because she has a lot to do,” Liuli replied, rubbing her eyes.

“Dad, did you not sleep last night?” Liuli asked, noticing her father’s red eyes.

“No, I just woke up as well,” Yu Zhiyuan shook his head. “Did you sleep well?” “That’s good. Dad, are you feeling like Mom, missing me already?” “My mom is the sweetest! She doesn’t want to let me go, but she keeps saying she wants me to get married soon!” “Well, I’m not marrying someone far away. 1 can come home for dinner every day with the convenience of the car.” “Dad, think about it. I can even marry Brother Moxi.” “When his father retires, Brother Moxi will take charge of the company.” “Then we can just sit at home and count the money. It would be wonderful!” Liuli tried to console her father.

“Good, very good!” Yu Zhiyuan nodded.

“Don’t be sad, Dad. Let’s go and have breakfast together. Mom said she made some delicious food!” Liuli suggested, and they both headed downstairs.

It was Liuli’s favorite dish.

…..

Liuli ate an extra bowl more than usual.

After breakfast, she had to do her makeup, style her hair, change into the bride’s attire, and wear the ornaments. Then she would pay respects to her ancestors. It was a busy process.

When everything was done, Liuli sat in her room, patiently waiting for Mr. Tang to marry her.

She had felt a bit sad in the morning, but now she was starting to feel bored.

So she decided to pass the time by using her cell phone.

Duoduo was online as well.

Liuli initiated a conversation with Duoduo.

“Hey, how was your winter break?’ “I’ve been getting drunk every day!” replied Duoduo on the other end of the internet.

‘?” Liuli asked, confused.

“Didn’t you? We’ve been having endless gatherings with classmates from elementary, middle, and high school. We’ve been drinking nonstop!” “Maha, not really! I just went shopping with a few high school classmates!” “You’re so unpopular!” “Come join me, I’ll treat you well every day!” “Maha, no thanks, I don’t know how to drink!

“Then let’s have fun together!!!

“Have you finished your winter break homework?” “What? You have winter break homework?” “Yes, we have to write a practical report for the break!” “Oh no, I completely forgot about it. Can’t I just write about my Winter Holiday Adventure?” “Maha, as long as the counselor accepts it!” “Oh, by the way, have you checked the results?” Duoduo asked.

“Oh really? The results are out?” “Of course! Spring Festival is just around the corner, and 1 passed all of them! I even got

90 points in two subjects. Congratulate me!” “When 1 finish my investigation and pass all of them, then congratulations to me too!” “Just do it and let me know when you’re finished.” “Duoduo, do you really think I’ll fail?” “That’s impossible! If you don’t aim for excellence and only settle for passing, you should be ashamed of yourself. Are you one of us?” “Fine, it’s my fault. I should have said that if you don’t score above 90, how will you survive?” “Go away.”

Liuli and Duoduo were in the midst of their conversation when they heard the sound of firecrackers. They realized that the groom had arrived to marry the bride.

Liuli quickly replied to Duoduo.

“I’ll talk to you later. It’s an emergency.”

She then put her cellphone away.

She didn’t see Duoduo’s response…

“What kind of emergency? You’re not telling me you failed the exam, are you?”

Later, Liuli blamed Duoduo for being a jinx.

If she hadn’t said those things, maybe she wouldn’t have failed the exam.

Can you believe it?

She scored over 80 in every subject during the final exam of the first semester of college, with some even above 90.

But she only got 59 in English.

How absurd!

Liuli was about to open the door and go downstairs…

But she was stopped and pushed back into the bedroom by the relatives outside.

What was happening?

Was she not allowed to meet the groom?

It was only then that Liuli learned that the bridesmaids and the bride’s relatives had intercepted the groom and his entourage at the door.

She had planned to give them a hard time and demand lots of red envelopes before letting them in.

Oops, that was incorrect. She was supposed to open the door for the groom and the wedding procession.

Liuli had fantasized about being a bridesmaid in the future.

She could even be the maid of honor and make the groom wait at the door, refusing to give him any red envelopes.

That way, she could patiently wait to receive red envelopes and count the money until her hands grew weak.

But now she was disappointed once again.

Apparently, it was not appropriate for a married woman to be a maid of honor.

Liuli was furious!

She had never been a maid of honor before!

All her dreams of receiving red envelopes vanished!

It was too unfair!

Someone knocked on the door.

Liuli wondered if it was someone coming to relay a message.

So she called out, “Come in, the door is open!”

As the door opened, Liuli sat up straight and looked towards it. In the next moment, she was taken aback.

It was none other than Tang Moxi, the groom, dressed in traditional attire.

Liuli was startled. She sized up Tang Moxi and burst into laughter. It was the first time for her to see Mr. Tang dressed like this. He looked very funny! Haha!

She was so excited that she knocked over the chair she was sitting on.

That caused a loud sound in the room.

Startled, Liuli got embarrassed. She put up the chair and explained.

“Sorry, I didn’t do that on purpose!” “It is okay, I am getting used to that!” Tang Moxi answered with a half-smile.

“Well…”Liuli threw a rebellious look at Tang Moxi.

Mr. Tang, when can you stop teasing me?

At this moment, Tang Moxi walked in and came to her. He looked down at Liuli and said.

“You look beautiful today!

Liuli flushed. She had wanted to say that her husband looked very handsome today. But what she blurted out was…

“I was born beautiful and there is nothing I can do about itf!”

Liuli acted as if she had lost herself.

She lowered her head as if thinking over the atonement.

At this moment, Tang Moxi’s gentle voice arose.

“Liuli, you are my wife from this day on. We are going to love each other and we are going to grow old together.”

Moved, Liuli looked up at Tang Moxi but felt like laughing.

“Uncle, you have never proposed to me!”

Then came Tang Moxi’s hearty laughter, and then he whispered by her ears.

“We have already slept together. Isn’t this bigger than a proposal?”

Liuli was dumbfounded.

She felt that she had been stricken hard on the head!

The door was opened, and Tang Moxi walked out of the bedroom with Liuli in his arms.

The people guarding outside burst into applause and cheers.

Liuli had not yet recovered from the shock before she got startled again.

Tang Moxi carried her downstairs to pay respects to the ancestors and then they served the tea to the seniors.

…..

In the end, Tang Moxi carried Liuli out of the Yu family’s residence and they went into the wedding car together.

Liuli did not seem to realize what was going on until this moment. She lifted the drapery and looked out of the window, looking at her parents and Grandma.

She suddenly burst into tears.

She had not thought much about this before, because she had not expected that it was a big deal.

As she went onto the wedding car and saw Grandma and her parents standing outside, she suddenly felt as if she were really going to leave them.

It felt as if they were never going to be together again.

She could not help but burst into tears.

“Liuli, be a good wife!” Lin Yu said but could not continue.

Tears came out of her eyes too.

Yu Zhiyuan held her and looked at his precious daughter with red eyes.

This tough man from the Yu family could not stand the fact that his precious daughter was getting married.

Liuli nodded but could not utter a word.

“Grandma, Dad, Mom, I will take good care of Liuli!” Tang Moxi answered.

Yu Zhiyuan nodded.

“Jingxing, please take care of Liuli from now on.” Grandma said.

“Don’t worry, Grandma!” Tang Moxi turned around and answered.

“It is time to leave!”

At this moment, the matchmaker came up and reminded her, whilst saying a few nice words.

The bridal team were leaving the Yu family’s residence.

Seeing the wedding car driving away and disappearing from her sight, Lin Yu could not stand still any more.

She had been holding on until this moment, when she suddenly felt that her energy had been drained out of her completely.

Liuli did not look away until Grandma and her parents were gone.

Tang Moxi hugged her and Liuli, who was in Tang Moxi’s arms, started to cry.

She felt so terrible, as if her world had collapsed.

“Girl, let’s take a break, okay?” “Or Grandpa Tang will think that I am bullying you seeing you like this!” Tang Moxi consoled her.

“You are!” Liuli said without feeling embarrassment.

“Tell me, how am I bullying you?” Tang Moxi asked Liuli with a small smile.

Liuli got stuck in words when asked by Tang Moxi.

In the end, she blurted out.

“You are bullying me when you decide to marry me!”

Tang Moxi looked at Liuli, who could not help but shiver.

For some reason, she suddenly felt that Mr. Tang had turned dark hearing this.

But to her surprise, it turned out she was imagining things, as Mr. Tang’s smile quickly returned. He playfully pinched her cheeks and remarked, “Then I guess I’ll just have to keep teasing you for the rest of our lives!” “Uncle, please don’t pinch my face, I don’t want to ruin my makeup!” Liuli gently pulled down Tang Moxi’s hands and protested.

“You’re worrying about your makeup now that you’re already crying? Isn’t that a little too late?” Tang Moxi teased with a smile.

“Oh, really? Did I ruin it? Is my face a mess?” Liuli grew anxious, leaning closer to the window to examine her reflection.

The window wasn’t very clear, so Tang Moxi took out his phone, activated the front camera, and handed it to her.

Liuli looked at Tang Moxi, initially puzzled by his actions, before realizing what he had done. She accepted the phone and used the camera as a makeshift mirror.

To her relief, her makeup remained intact, but her eyes were visibly swollen from crying. She couldn’t help but exclaim, “I look so ugly, like a frog!”

Tang Moxi burst into laughter..
