Mu Yazhe reached out and lightly touched the bridge of his nose, as though finding the situation a little tricky.
Qin Zhou, who was next to him, pushed him away. Jiang Shen and Lu Jinyu immediately came up to the door and started pounding on it.
"Open the door! Open up!"
"Bride, open the door!"
Youyou and Little Yichen hid the pair of red high heels, then came to the door. When they heard Mu Yazhe's voice, they chuckled.
"Red packet! Red packet!"
Hearing their voices, Mu Yazhe thought to himself, the two little rascals!
What happened to the agreed collaboration!?
He turned around and ordered Qin Zhou, "Give them red packets."
Qin Zhou quickly squatted down and stuffed red packets through the crack below the door.
Little Yichen said greedily, "Not enough, not enough! You want to flick us off with just these miserable red packets?"
Qin Zhou continued stuffing the red packets through the slit beneath the door, but the door remained shut.
Jiang Shen pitifully shouted, "Sister-in-law, take pity on Chief! He's been tortured by his brother-in-law. He's done a hundred push-ups and an equal number of sit-ups. He's so tired that he's about to collapse!"
Yun Shishi, who was sitting on the bed, covered her mouth and giggled when she heard this.
She had long expected that Xiao Jie would not let him off so easily!
How could she not know? Hence, she sent Xiao Xue and Mu Xi to plead for mercy. Xiao Jie only let Mu Yazhe off after she had spoken up.
However, there was still another barrier when they arrived at the boudoir!
Jun Mo asked through the door, "Groom, do you know the bride's body measurements?"
A commotion broke out outside the door, and Yun Shishi instantly blushed.
At weddings, the bridesmaids guard the door to the boudoir. When the groom turns up to receive the bride, the bridesmaids will quiz him to make things a little difficult. The questions are not normally harsh, rather they are just for the sake of creating a fun atmosphere.
Mu Yazhe smiled and replied, "I do, but it's not convenient for me to reveal it."
"Is it really inconvenient to reveal or is it that you don't know?"
"Of course I know."
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
Xiao Xue commented, "Shishi, your husband really protects your interest."
"There are so many groomsmen outside the door; Chairman Mu definitely won't divulge the information," she added.
Jun Mo asked again, "Groom, the bride asks if you have anything to say to her?"
Yun Shishi immediately protested, "Jun Mo, I didn't say that."
"Shh!" Jun Mo gestured for her to keep quiet.
Mu Yazhe's gentle voice came from outside. "Shishi, I love you!"
Such a direct confession was undoubtedly bold and passionate for a man who had always been reserved!
Qin Zhou, however, was not satisfied and said, "Chairman Mu, if that's all you have to say. You won't get past this!"
He smiled. "I'm not done yet!"
Everyone held their breath.
Then, the man continued unhurriedly, "In the past, I only dared to say 'I like you' because the words 'I love you' were too foreign, too heavy-going. But from today onwards, I will tell you 'I love you' every day. I've never been good at expressing myself, and I've caused you to suffer many grievances! Along the way, we've experienced many ups and downs. Because of my personality, I'm always not good with words, and I don't know how to whisper sweet nothings. But, do you know? Every time I see you, my heart says 'I love you', whether you hear it or not."
Jun Mo and Xiao Xue looked at each other, touched by his confession.
Yun Shishi was also stunned and very touched. Her eyes reddened as she recalled snippets of their time together since the day they met.. Scene after scene flashed before her eyes like a revolving lantern.
