"Yup, I’m getting married with a baby in my belly." Liu Siying gently stroked her belly, with a satisfied smile on her face.
"Congratulations, this is double the celebration!" Huo Mian was very excited to hear about the little child.
Babies were basically a gift from God...
"What about you? Any good news?"
"Not yet." Huo Mian smiled.
"Don’t worry, you don’t need to be in a rush. It’s all in the stars, and when it’s meant to be, babies will come naturally."
"Yeah."
"Hey, look who’s here." Liu Siying smiled as she pointed at the door.
Huo Mian tilted her hand and noticed seven or eight old high school classmates standing by the door.
The class president, Han Xu, was standing in the first row. Beside him were Wei Dong and a skinny woman with thick makeup on.
"Woah, did I see right, is that Goddess Huo?" Han Xu was a little surprised to see Huo Mian.
"How surprised would you guys be if I told you I was her bridesmaid?"
"Wow, wow... really?" another guy asked.
"It’s true... I’m lucky, aren’t I, to have Huo Mian as my bridesmaid."
"But... isn’t Huo Mian already married?" Wei Dong smiled awkwardly.
It’s true – married women couldn’t be bridesmaids...
"She only got her marriage license and didn’t hold a wedding yet... so I decided to take advantage of that," Liu Siying explained.
"You have a point... marriage doesn’t count without a wedding."
The others all discussed amongst themselves...
The other classmates sat down in the lounge and chit chatted with Liu Siying...
The woman beside Wei Dong glanced at Huo Mian. "This is the so-called prettiest girl in your class? She’s not even that pretty."
Everyone looked awkwardly at Huo Mian...
Huo Mian, on the other hand, didn’t dwell on it. Never had she admitted that she was the prettiest girl in their class anyway.
"Stop your nonsense," warned Wei Dong awkwardly.
"Wei Dong... your girlfriend is sure the conversationalist," Han Xu ridiculed.
"She’s too straightforward, don’t take it seriously, haha."
"I was telling the truth, she’s really normal-looking. Why do you guys all treat her like a goddess?"
Perhaps the woman saw that Huo Mian wasn’t attacking back, so she went even further...
This time, Liu Siying lost her cool. She grabbed Huo Mian’s hand. "Goddesses aren’t determined by their faces. The women at nightclubs are all pretty, but that doesn’t make them goddesses... The term ’goddess’ is broadly defined, and I know that Huo Mian has high IQ and EQ. There’re so many pretty women out there, and it’s no coincidence that she became the young madam of GK."
"What? She’s the young madam of GK?" The woman was slightly dumbfounded.
"Wei Dong... didn’t you give your girlfriend a lesson before coming?" Liu Siying coldly scanned Wei Dong’s awkward face.
"My girlfriend’s from out of town and doesn’t know any better. Don’t take it too seriously, haha."
Huo Mian didn’t say anything. She smiled and turned around to look at Liu Siying. "It’s about time, let’s head over to the chapel."
"Okay." Liu Siying nodded. Then, she got up, grabbed the hem of her wedding dress and walked towards the chapel.
Huo Mian helped her with the hem... and slowly trailed behind her...
Their classmates slowly followed them...
"Huo Mian, why isn’t Qin Chu here?" One of her classmates asked.
"He’s busy." Huo Mian smiled.
"Oh right, yesterday was the 30-year-anniversary party. It was amazing, haha... I watched from the beginning to end and didn’t even miss the ads. Hey, the waltz that you guys danced in the end was awesome, it was even better than your dance during 2nd High’s anniversary celebration."
"Thank you."
She wasn’t that close with those classmates, so she didn’t care for their flattery or taunts.
"Huo Mian... can you come over in a bit? I need to talk to you about something."
Wei Dong’s voice was low, and he said this as he walked past Huo Mian.
Huo Mian first fell silent and then nodded...
Wei Dong must’ve asked to talk to her because he needed something, right?
Afterward, the wedding march began playing. Then, accompanied by her father, Liu Siying walked up to the stage and stood before the groom.
Huo Mian looked at the groom from afar; everyone kept saying that he looked like Qin Chu, but why didn’t she think so?
Was something wrong with her eyesight?
"Huo Mian, do you think Liu Siying’s husband looks like Qin Chu?" a female classmate that liked to stir up trouble asked Huo Mian with a smile on her face.
