The spring in the Xia City passed swiftly, but at the beginning of May, after the tail end of the twilight spring passed quietly, thereupon stepped into the early summer. In the early summer of the Coastal City, the weather was not yet stifling, the air was filled with a little water vapor, cold and very comfortable. This time of year was the most suitable for marriage to happen.
Lin Qing and Xu Shao’s wedding was scheduled on the May Day holiday, the two of them finally reached the end of their long-distance love affair, which ultimately ended with Xu Shao’s compromise. Xu Shao resigned from Jing City TV station and came to Xia City TV station, where he would join the station after getting married.
The two went to college in Xia City and also settled in Xia City, so the wedding ceremony was also held in Xia City. And the place where it was held, was in the He’s Group’s Ji Li International Hotel.
Su Qiuzi had been following Lin Qing since a few days before the wedding ceremony, and was busy helping with the wedding. When she got married, she did not do anything and simply tied the knot. Now that she was following Lin Qing to do it all over again, it felt like she was getting married all over again.
After a couple of busy days, the wedding started and Su Qiuzi stayed with Lin Qing in the dressing room. This time the make-up team, which Su Qiuzi helped to contact, was still the same make-up artist from the last concert.
Lin Qing was wearing her wedding dress, sitting there putting on makeup. As a crosstalk performer, she had been making small talk with Su Qiuzi when the makeup around her mouth was done to be applied. The crosstalk performer who had been on stage countless times and had done countless crosstalk shows never had stage fright, but was very nervous at the wedding. Su Qiuzi did not say it and only listened to her talk about buying a house and renovating it, as well as spouting off about Xu Shao’s mother asking them to have a baby sooner, parental stuff, all jumbled up.
The makeup artist listened to the two chatting, interjecting a word from time to time, when finally Lin Qing stopped talking halfway and sighed, the makeup artist looked at Su Qiuzi and said with a smile, “The bride is just nervous.”
Her body was slightly stiff, and Lin Qing also opened up and said with a smile, “I’m nervous, I’ve never been nervous for so many performances. By the way, Qiuzi, were you nervous at that time?”
When the topic turned to Su Qiuzi, the makeup artist and Lin Qing looked at each other, Su Qiuzi laughed, thought back for a long time, touched her nose and said, “I forgot.”
“Well, it’s been so long since you got married.” The makeup artist said with a smile.
Speaking about her wedding with He Yu, outsiders did not know the truth about the circumstances, so Su Qiuzi did not explain it, but nodded with a smile. When the makeup artist finished the makeup for Lin Qing and went out, the room was left with only the two of them. Lin Qing looked back at Su Qiuzi and lamented, “You and Mr. He would definitely be nervous if you were getting married only now.”
Su Qiuzi smiled and said, “Why?”
“Marrying a strange man and marrying the man you are in love with feel different.” Lin Qing said, “Of course I haven’t married an ordinary man, because I’m marrying Xu Shao exclusively.”
When Lin Qing said that, the two of them laughed. After laughing, Lin Qing’s eyes suddenly flooded with light, she pursed her lips and lifted her hand. Su Qiuzi understood the gesture as the two sat hand in hand.
It was a joyous occasion for Lin Qing to get married today, but Su Qiuzi also saw the tears in Lin Qing’s eyes, and her throat was a little sour. But she smiled, shook her hand, and said to Lin Qing, “I’m so happy that you are so happy today.”
Lin Qing meant more to Su Qiuzi than anyone else, being the first true friend to give Su Qiuzi kindness. When she was in college, the two of them took classes and ate together and were inseparable. At that time, Su Qiuzi scholarship thing was blacked out, it was Lin Qing who ran to the counselor to find the school to voice her grievances. When she later ran part-time jobs, Lin Qing gave her support behind the scenes, knowing that she was short of money and would specifically go to Xu Shao to ask her for a part-time job.
Later when they graduated, even though they didn’t see each other as much as they did when they were in school, they kept up with each other in Weibo. She would chat with Lin Qing if she had anything, and so did Lin Qing. She would talk to Lin Qing about whatever she wanted to say, and Lin Qing did the same. The two were soulmates, and their friendship was one that could rival love.
As soon as Su Qiuzi’s words came out, Lin Qing snorted with joy, tilting her head while doing so, “Oops, I can’t cry, or my makeup will smudge.”
