After tidying herself up, she applied a thin layer of makeup in front of the dressing table. A pair of beautiful eyes and a charming face was reflected on the mirror. She walked to the front of the cabinet and opened the door, inside which hung a long dress made with light pink fabric.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNdZBtbazh 維尼

Cin Heung took off the clothing she had on and gently put on the long dress. The formal dress wrapped perfectly around her waist and chest without the slightest of deviations. A pair of narrow shoulders and a pair of long arms were exposed under the room light; her graceful silhouette appeared on the ground as an elegant shadow. She let down her long hair that was curled up on her head and fiddled with it. Cin Heung was now displaying her femininity to the fullest. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qnfOi9iff 維尼

She put on her silky white high heels and stepped out of the room. Arriving at Manman’s room, she knocked on the door and asked, “Manman, can I come in?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsp2Tan92b 維尼

“Come in, Cin Heung.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rOnhZqqG9 維尼

In addition to Manman, her parents were also present in the room. Cin Heung politely greeted Manman’s parents. Having a serious look on their faces, they greeted Cin Heung and then left after that. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8j87IEbNCQ 維尼

Manman forced a smile as her parents left. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r4KNJ6bUe 維尼

Seeing that Manman was still wearing pajamas and her face was haggard, Cin Heung asked, “Are you alright? Nervous about today’s wedding?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz97C1R0WR 維尼

Manman shook her head and sighed, “Well… My parents said they would leave tonight after the wedding. They said they have a business appointment in Toronto.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUKyktYRiR 維尼

“Oh…” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbZIDsNLUp 維尼

“Leaving tonight after just arriving. They really love their work and don’t want to lose any clients. They totally are workaholics,” Manman complained with a bitter smile.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjXCB5YLlJ 維尼

“At least they came. Don’t be sad now, you need to be more forgiving today.”8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡanBAAe0RW4 維尼

“I don’t even know if they care about this wedding…” Manman said unhappily, but she also acted as though this had happened countless times. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJQV20nwMh 維尼

“Of course they care about your wedding! Now come on, let’s get you dressed up. I’ll help.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvYQ2CWxw6 維尼

Cin Heung helped Manman put on her makeup, lipstick, and eye shadow. After that, she took the snowy-white wedding dress and helped her to put it on. Finally, she carefully put on the white veil over Manman’s head. After carefully dressing her up, a beautiful bride appeared in front of their eyes.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡT41bagHZ88 維尼

“You look so beautiful! Go look in the mirror!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z9uRBtAoa 維尼

Manman went to the mirror and looked at it. Her beauty was so transcendent that she was stunned when she saw herself. Is this really Lei Shun Man?8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fmHkR3oZO 維尼

Manman took Cin Heung’s hand and said, “I really appreciate you being here for me. I wonder if there will be such happy days after you girls leave.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYFP8baRvr 維尼

Cin Heung thought about it and said with a smile, “Well, here’s a little inside scoop. I’m thinking about staying here to learn cooking. If it works out, you won’t have to worry about being alone.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnrdaJj5cF 維尼

“Are you sure?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99bWB0cAJy 維尼

“I’ll have to get my parents approval.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡJI3Yftj1HQ 維尼

“Uncle and auntie will definitely be reasonable.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLu5cpUhn5 維尼

“Then you should be happy! Worry no more.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm6nzkNIFn 維尼

“There’s one more thing though.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqjinbOsc2 維尼

“What else? You’re really sentimental about things.” Cin Heung pursed her mouth.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cXHBUOwmu 維尼

“No! It’s about Sum Ting and Gou Jing, will they come?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IBcaQPZPN 維尼

“Oh, don’t worry about it! We did what we could, now let’s just leave it to fate.” Even though Cin Heung said it with ease, she was also worried about it. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡzL3XhKsF81 維尼

After a while, Wing Tung also came into the room. She looked at Manman, dumbfounded, and asked, “Are you Lei Shun Man?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡefuz86pFpM 維尼

“Would there be another bride today?” Manman said mischievously.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vXrYxaZYX 維尼

“Oh my gosh! I’m afraid Tony will be enchanted by you forever.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzE91JUsfo 維尼

“Please, I already enchanted him long ago.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡonp2hrOAPH 維尼

After some chit chat, the ladies were finally relaxed. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJUfbqiJHK 維尼

Cin Heung told Manman not to leave the room until the wedding began and also asked Wing Tung to take care of her all day. She then went outside to handle the other arrangements.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQSOB5o1Vl 維尼

The sky was beginning to brighten up.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlf6zjjrWE 維尼

Coming to the backyard, Cin Heung saw Tony, and also the Duen and Lei parents chatting. Naturally, she went over and greeted them. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyGmjWdnvw 維尼

“Cin Heung! Come here, come here!” Auntie Duen called out. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIDgBNGU1E 維尼

“Good morning, Uncle Duen and Auntie Duen.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNMLl5QXLM 維尼

“Do you know Uncle Lei and Auntie Lei?” Auntie Duen asked. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqDqgiBEba 維尼

“I know them.” Cin Heung nodded at the Lei parents. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjnfd3AIxF 維尼

Uncle Duen then said, “Cin Heung, you’ve done so much for this wedding. If not for you, I’m afraid this wedding would have been a big mess!” Saying that, he stared at Tony.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡlArle0K7fr 維尼

Tony quickly chimed in, “Yeah I was pretty bad at it. If it hadn’t been for Cin Heung, our guardian angel, the consequences would have been great.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPKsR4EFFO 維尼

Cin Heung waved her hand modestly and said, “Oh it’s nothing.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k7CwryasA 維尼

“Oh, you’re the classmate Shun Man talks about.” Uncle Lei nodded with dignity and said, “Thank you very much. This is a little something expressing our appreciation.” He said that and handed a red envelope to Cin Heung. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcJdMlxzoY 維尼

“Don’t mention it! Uncle.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ5rnF6yep 維尼

“This is tradition, keep it!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡErOuHDI2iv 維尼

Cin Heung reluctantly accepted the red envelope. She felt the weight of the red envelope, and she knew that the contents must be of considerable value. This made her feel even more embarrassed. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mriPu81tC 維尼

The Duen’s observed this and said, “Cin Heung, we need to trouble you again with things. Tony, you go help her out.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡczQd4weNpZ 維尼

“Alright! Let’s go.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwKV1rVkjN 維尼

The two then went back to the backyard together. As they walked on, Tony stared at Cin Heung and said, "You are so beautiful today! Let me introduce a guy to you later!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rtmztPdhO 維尼

“Haha! You can do it when you are free!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9WrPZAL4w 維尼

“Don’t underestimate me!”8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAf1HJnq03 維尼

“I’m afraid you will forget everything when you see Manman!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5LTefGgda 維尼

Thinking about his future wife, Tony had a pleased look on his face. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAeMop5YBO 維尼

Cin Heung said with sincerity, “Congratulations.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡGibG1xd9qm 維尼

“Oh, thank you very much! Finally, this day has come!” Tony said as though he had gone through a lot for this wedding. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOBraYlKLJ 維尼

“What? What’s with the sudden lamenting?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xF0rzcduL 維尼

“This marriage actually came with many twists and turns. In fact, originally, my father-in-law was against our marriage at first. He was a businessman of the older generation so he was serious, stubborn, and traditional. He said that getting married to someone in a foreign country was troublesome and it would be too much of a hassle for them to see their grandson in the future. We tried our best and even threatened her parents that we would run away from home. In the end, Manman’s persistence softened their hearts and they allowed us to get married.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtqWb9lEWe 維尼

Cin Heung suddenly realized. “Oh, no wonder they always have that worried look… I’m sorry to hear that.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kPaZWfmQ1 維尼

“They’re always serious and tense, wearing that stern face of theirs! I wouldn’t blame them though.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡl18cfHloDb 維尼

“You two are rather brave.” Cin Heung smiled and continued, “You should cherish Manman, she sacrificed a lot!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYc3EDCPq0 維尼

“Yeah! She always likes to say, ‘We must fight for our happiness!’” Tony said emotionally. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb5nsPybkF 維尼

Several workers in the backyard were busy with the final arrangements. There was a small stage, above which was an arch full of flowers. There was also a banner which had the names of the marrying couple. The venue was surrounded by colorful balloons and several large screens were placed around the place. Rows of neat seats sat on both sides with an aisle in the middle. In front of the stage, there was a square table covered with a white velvet cloth, on which placed a bundle of blue roses. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzMVyfgNMz 維尼

Going through the list to check every item and see if there were any problems, Cin Heung would make suggestions to the workers to make sure that things were in order.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡOomHWa9Mep 維尼

Shaking his head in disbelief, Tony said, “You’re a really capable person. Single handedly organizing the entire wedding.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLDs7cjgdq 維尼

Cin Heung said with a smile, “Work habits. Men usually avoid this kind of woman when they see it!” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3cVBkkZKk 維尼

Noticing there was a girl sitting in the back of the seats, Cin Heung took a closer look and saw that it was Emma. She went over and said, “Emma, you’re up early. Don’t you want to sleep more?” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42ykPwhxuT 維尼

Emma stared at her coldly with her icy eyes. After a while, she gently shook off Cin Heung’s hand and said, “It’s none of your business!” She then got up and left.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNW11rqboM 維尼

Both Cin Heung and Tony were stunned. Immediately, Tony apologized to Cin Heung and went after Emma. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0lV2ijKy6 維尼

Cin Heung couldn’t figure out what that was. She just felt that Emma’s eyes were filled with hostility—a type of hostility that only women would understand. Cin Heung couldn’t understand what could have caused the hostility. Unable to come up with an answer, Cin Heung didn’t think much about it and went on to do other things. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRAejEmrQk 維尼

With clear blue skies in the afternoon, the pastor and all the guests had arrived, filling up all the seats in the venue. The two families greeted the relatives and friends. It was almost time for the ceremony to begin. The screens soon began to display various pictures of Manman and Tony: pictures of their childhood, of them growing up and dating.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcDxH2HMd1 維尼

At that time, Stirling appeared at the entrance and was greeted by a very happy Cin Heung. “Stirling, I owe you this favor!”8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡns2TdfvJuH 維尼

“This is a day for joy, don’t mention it!” Stirling and Cin Heung held each other tightly.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhiV9zdxde 維尼

Stirling’s appearance was all thanks to Cin Heung’s arrangement. She intended for Stirling to perform for the ceremony. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiXvN2zL2K 維尼

Cin Heung looked around and could not see Sum Ting and Gou Jing. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1yXG52fRI 維尼

Things went like this the day before yesterday when Cin Heung sent a message to them. “No matter what happens, we can overcome them... Cherish this friendship… Come to the wedding… Wun Wun.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HHB4EN1t6 維尼

Cin Heung sat in the front row. After the pictures of the couple ended, Stirling began to play a soft tune by the stage. The pastor stepped onto the stage and made the opening speech, topped with a bible verse. Tony stood in front and listened carefully to the pastor. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7WQy5vB6d 維尼

Looking around again, Cin Heung still couldn’t see Sum Ting and Gou Jing. Feeling a great sense of disappointment, she was worried that their friendship would soon disintegrate.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡME1BJFJ0ne 維尼

After reading the opening words, the pastor fell silent, which accentuated the tunes coming from the violin. After a while, the pastor announced, “The bride, please enter.” 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCuwMq7OfM 維尼

At the entrance to the garden, Wing Tung opened a glass door. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV8Jdqt1HA 維尼

Standing there with her sparkling white wedding dress, Manman looked on with her dreamy eyes; her beautiful cherry lips, as if a goddess had come down on earth. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc5xxtY58v 維尼

Everyone let out a gasp of awe. Tony even put his fingers to his lips in excitement.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mJp2HyvCC 維尼

Stirling began to play the song A Midsummer Night’s Dream. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBtTHsfDgK 維尼

Slowly, Manman walked along the aisle. The guests cast envious eyes as they looked at Manman walking to Tony. Finally, she stood beside him with a shy look on her face. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaPk2LYrBg 維尼

She glanced around quickly and saw that her parents and all the relatives were all looking at her. However, her two good friends were nowhere to be found. This made her feel a little sad. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡindll3KOB9 維尼

The priest asked for them to come forward to read the oath, but Manman was still hoping that her close friends could hear her read her oath. She looked around again, but was disappointed again. Stepping forward, she took the paper with the oath and prepared to read it.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgl2lsBxUq 維尼

Already finished reading his oath, Tony waited for Manman and stared at her. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVFP8uIv4b 維尼

At the moment, Cin Heung was so anxious that she began to rub her hands together. The sense of loss and despair was accumulating to a great level. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvkV3WoQVY 維尼

Manman looked at Tony. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡpK8SkYAmXz 維尼

All of a sudden, two figures sat down on both sides beside Cin Heung. She glanced at them, and her eyes became filled with uncontrolled tears. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NTbCzFBR6 維尼

Out of nowhere, a feeling came to Manman and she looked back. She saw her close friends and was immediately filled with joy! “I beg all of you to witness that I, Lei Shun Man, would take you Duen Yat Fan as my lawful husband. I promise you that from today on, I will love you and cherish you until the end of time; for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish. I pledge myself to you and till death do us part.”8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLaops0Evj 維尼

In the end, on one missed this touching moment. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡEm4IDl7iBz 維尼

The two gave each other wedding rings then signed the marriage certificate. Manman was already teary. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2zIOudfup 維尼

Playing the Bridal Chorus, Stirling’s violin tunes moved many into tears. Even the two people beside Cin Heung that were hostile toward each other, felt a little teary.8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2LwKuTel4 維尼

Extending her arms to the two people beside her, Cin Heung held them both close to her head. 8964 copyright protection296ＰＥＮＡＮＡej3oCXTdBh 維尼
