Chapter 615: Wedding (1)

Liu Ying was arrested again. This time it was Xi Ting who provided all the evidence against her. And even if she was Xi Xiaobao’s mother, Xi Ting did not show any mercy. After all, she was a criminal. Who knew how many lives she had spoiled before targeting him!

This news reached the other members of the Xi as well as the Nie family. Everyone was relieved to find that they had not fallen into Liu Ying’s trap. Otherwise, if even a single member of the family would have supported Madam Xi, it would have been even more difficult for everyone.

Now that Liu Ying was out of picture and everything was fine, Old Madam Xi did not wish to wait any further. She immediately met up with Old Madam Nie and decided that they should hold a wedding for Xi Ting and Qin Yan as soon as possible.

The two children had suffered enough and had undergone many tests in their lives. And so, Old Madam Xi did not want anyone to come between them again. Thus, the old lady discussed this with Xi Ting and Qin Yan before fixing a meeting between Old Madam Nie and Fang Zichen.

Everybody was more than happy at this suggestion. They also felt that it was time for the children to settle down. Thus, all of them discussed and prepared their guest list while Xi Ting and Nei Zehai booked a banquet hall for the wedding and did other preparations.

The old ladies also consulted a master for auspicious dates of the wedding and decided on the nearest dates accordingly.

Qin Yan and Xi Ting collected their marriage certificates first before holding their wedding. So now, they were already legally married.

But according to wedding customs, Xi Ting still had to come to the bride’s house to fetch the bride. So, the day before Qin Yan’s wedding, she returned to Nie family mansion to stay.

The Nie family had already prepared a room for Qin Yan when they came to know about her existence. Because of the wedding, they had even especially decorated her room all over again.

The wedding would be held on Saturday. On Friday, Qin Yan came home to prepare. She also had to put on decorations around her room to make it look more festive.

Tong Chunian brought people with him around the district to put up the "Xi"[1] motif decorations.

According to custom, they even had to cover up the drain covers in the whole district with pink paper.

According to tradition, the day before the wedding, the bride and groom were not allowed to see each other. So, when Xi Ting wanted to come, Nie Qinyu would not let him in no matter what.

Xi Ting had gotten off work. He was already at the door, but Nie Qinyu and the Nie brothers blocked him outside.

"Dad," Xi Ting said helplessly. "It’s been so long since I’d collected my marriage certificate with Qin Yan. Do we still need to be particular about this?"

"Collecting your marriage certificate is one thing, a wedding is another," Nie Qinyu said. "Since you want to hold a wedding ceremony, you have to be particular about it."

"You said we can’t meet the day before our wedding, but Yan Yan was together with me at home last night. This morning, we have seen each other," Xi Ting said as he smiled.

"..." Nie Qinyu was annoyed. "You rascal, you even know how to exploit loopholes in front of me?"

"Dad, we absolutely cannot let him enter," the Nie brothers found this opportunity to play with Xi Ting and thus, they could not let this go.

Qin Yan heard these grown men having a field day quibbling, so she wanted to go out and take a look.

She did not quite believe in such practices. But since the elders said so, she would just follow it. It could make the elders feel assured and also prevent them from feeling unhappy. So, she planned to go over and persuade Xi Ting.

Alas, the moment she began to go over, Lin Shuang stopped her.

"Don’t go. Didn’t we already agree? You both cannot meet," Lin Shuang also said. "You two, seriously. Isn’t it just one night?

"Counting in the time you two stayed together before you two collected your marriage certificates, that’s quite a while already," Lin Shuang said. "How come up until now, you two still can’t bear to be apart for even one night?"

"..." Qin Yan felt a little embarrassed because of what Lin Shuang said. She blushed and said, "No, it’s not that I want to let him in. I was going to persuade him to leave."

Lin Shuang stared at Qin Yan for a while, but her disbelief remained clearly written all over her face.

Qin Yan: "..."

Although she and Xi Ting’s relationship was especially good, in everyone’s eyes, were the two of them so clingy?

Lin Shuang waved her hand and said, "Enough. Anyway, the two of you can’t see each other. Even if you just want to persuade him, you two still can’t meet. But you two can call each other. You can give him a call and quickly persuade him. Don’t let him stand at the door and quibble with your brothers."

Qin Yan smacked her head. "Look at me, I was so busy preparing for the wedding that I forgot. I actually forgot about this. Even if I can’t meet him, I can give him a call."

Not only did she become dumber, but even Xi Ting had become dumber as well. If he missed her, he could call her. But he even came over and got blocked outside the door by Nie Qinyu and others.

Qin Yan quickly took her phone and left.

Lin Shuang smiled and shook her head. These two people. Usually, each of them was extremely astute, yet when it came to this moment, they actually both became dumb. It’s fine if Qin Yan did not remember it. But even Xi Ting did not remember that he could still call her. He was still quibbling with Nie Qinyu at the entrance right now.

On the other side, Xi Ting was still arguing with the Nie family men when he got a phone call. When Xi Ting took it out and looked, he saw that it was Qin Yan calling him.

He smacked his head. He had really become dumb. Even if he could not enter, he could still give Qin Yan a call. He actually did not think of this point.

Xi Ting quickly answered. "Yan Yan!"

Before waiting for Qin Yan to say something, Xi Ting said immediately after, "Your father and brothers aren’t letting me in!"

Look at the manner in which he was complaining. So indignant and extremely aggrieved. Xi Ting’s expression looked like he was waiting for Qin Yan to be his judge.

Nie Qinyu: "..."

The Nie brothers: "..."

All of them could not help but feel their faces twitch as they stared at Xi Ting speechlessly.

Qin Yan did not know whether to cry or laugh when she heard that.

She had no choice either, so she could only persuade him, "No choice. This is the custom, even though I don’t believe in it too. Seeing each other before our wedding won’t affect our relationship anyway."

"Exactly!" Xi Ting was in full agreement.

"But since the elders said so, it’s just one night, so let’s cooperate with them," Qin Yan persuaded. "You go back and rest first. Don’t you need to set off to come over to fetch me early in the morning tomorrow? In another ten plus hours, we can see each other again."

"Yan Yan, anyway, I need to come over and fetch the bride, so let me stay here. Tomorrow, I can just drive the wedding car around the vicinity. In this way, you don’t need to worry that I have to wake up so early." Xi Ting felt that he was really quick-thinking.

Qin Yan’s mouth twitched a little before she said, "Stop kicking up a fuss, go back home obediently!"

Xi Ting: "..."

"We haven’t seen each other for a day. Don’t you miss me?" Xi Ting asked Qin Yan.

"..." Qin Yan went to her own room.

Her room was on the second floor.

At this moment, Qin Yan stood by the window and opened it, saying, "Look up at the second floor."

Hearing that, Xi Ting stepped backward until he could see the second floor. He looked up and saw Qin Yan standing by the window, smiling and waving at him.

Xi Ting finally felt satisfied. At least he managed to see Qin Yan. He had really felt aggrieved. They were husband and wife, yet just because they were going to hold a wedding, they actually could not meet. Who was he supposed to find and reason with?
