Chapter 853: Chapter 853: Wedding Banquet 2

He Teng remembered that the last time he was a groom, he had not been this nervous and expectant. Before, when he received a letter from his father telling him to submit the marriage report, and once he got leave, he immediately went home. Throughout the whole process, his mood was utterly flat, as if simply coming home to complete a routine task.

But this time around, even though he was older, his heart was more restless than ever before.

Hearing He Dongxue’s voice, He Teng quickly called out to her, asking, "Where’s your sister-in-law? Why is she not in sight?"

"Brother, why are you so anxious? Your sister-in-law isn’t going to run away. She’s back there with Dad!" He Dongxue teased He Teng, and Chen Xiting and the others couldn’t help but burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"The groom looks exceptionally handsome today! But, the bride is also exceptionally beautiful!" Chen Xiting winked at He Teng, then followed He Dongxue into the banquet hall.

He Teng stood at the entrance of the banquet hall and, it must be said, Chen Xiting’s words made him even more eager to see He Zhilan. He just stood at the entrance, peering out, and after much anticipation, finally caught sight of He Zhilan approaching, arm in arm with her father, from afar.

He Zhilan was draped in a red veil, and even though she was several meters away, she shone like a beacon, capturing He Teng’s attention.

He stared without even blinking, watching her approach with a smile as delicate as peach blossoms, step by step toward him.

He Teng had imagined more than once how beautiful He Zhilan would be in her red bridal gown, but all those imaginations paled in comparison to the real sight of her.

He knew He Zhilan was beautiful, but he had never thought she could be almost as though she had stepped out of a painting.

A smile tinged with shyness, like a breath of spring air, hit him right in his heart.

At that moment, He Teng believed that there probably wasn’t any girl in this world more beautiful than his wife!

"Sister." He Zhilan stood in front of He Teng and softly called out his name. Seeing that He Teng didn’t respond, she lifted her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "Brother?"

"Ateng!" Father He was directly amused by He Teng’s reaction and pushed him gently, saying, "Ateng, snap out of it!"

"Dad." It was only then that He Teng suddenly moved. Although he called out to Father He, his eyes never left He Zhilan’s figure. Meeting He Zhilan’s smile, he then softly called out, "Wife~"

"Let’s go in." Father He glanced towards the banquet hall, then solemnly took He Zhilan’s hand, placing it in He Teng’s broad palm, "Ateng, I’m entrusting our family’s Zhilan to you once again. I still hold the same message: do not bully Miss Zhilan. Always be generous with her, take care of her, think about her, and look after her well. From now on, you two are to walk through life together. With the occasional bumps, as a man, you must unconditionally step back."

He Teng nodded deeply, looking at He Zhilan who was trying to suppress her giggles, and slightly tightened his grip on her hand, "Don’t disobey me in the future!"

He Zhilan was startled, then couldn’t help but chuckle at He Teng’s remark, "Right, you can’t disobey me in the future. If I say go west, you can’t go east!"

"Enough with the bickering. The guests are waiting. Let’s go inside," Father He helplessly looked at the young couple, one naive and the other sharp-tongued. The two of them together would surely be quite a sight in the future.

The three of them, with Father He leading the way, He Teng having never let go of He Zhilan’s hand ever since her father had placed it in his, followed behind Father He into the banquet hall.
