Chapter 1988: 1988

Ye Qianqian’s heart beat faster . Her whole body stiffened .

“You… who are you?”

Ye Qianqian was absolutely sure that she was not Mrs . Dong Fang, and certainly not Shen Zhilie’s grandmother!

The old woman smiled and said, “I’m Grandmother Cheng . It doesn’t matter if you don’t know me yet . Your grandmother-in-law will introduce me to you tomorrow . ”

Ye Qianqian was relieved to hear that .

She wanted to nod, but the weight on her neck made her immediately give up the idea .

“I see . Thank you, Grandmother Cheng . ”

“Why hasn’t your husband arrived yet? You must be tired, aren’t you?” Grandmother Cheng’s voice sounded sympathetic .

Ye Qianqian felt helpless and aggrieved, but she decided to suck it up . She answered, “It feels a little heavy . But apart from that, I’m all right . ”

Grandmother Cheng laughed and said, “Wedding ceremonies were conducted like this in the past . But now, the ceremonies are a lot less elaborate . Back in the day, the bride had to arise before dawn to prepare . The hair had to be combed a specific number of times . The amount of makeup and the types of jewelry used were meticulously arranged . The bride had to whisper to her mother by the bed and cry before parting from the maiden family – we were particular about following tradition . Modern society is much more liberal . ”

Ye Qianqian listened and clicked her tongue discreetly . She asked, “Were you married in a traditional Chinese wedding, Grandmother Cheng?”

“We weren’t affluent enough for that kind of pomp and pageantry . We were poor from living under oppression for so long . We didn’t have the money to conduct lavish ceremonies . ”

Suddenly they heard the sound of the door creaking open .

The sound of familiar footsteps traveled across the room . Ye Qianqian immediately felt an impulse to cry .

He’s here! He’s finally here!

Shen Zhilie’s face was flushed red . He had been made to drink on his way here .

He felt heady as he walked into the room, as though he were floating above the ground .

He greeted Grandmother Cheng upon seeing her in the room .

“Good . ” She patted him on the shoulder and said, “Your wife has been waiting for you long enough . Go to her . ”

Shen Zhilie chuckled and said, “Thank you, Grandmother!”

Grandmother Cheng took his hand and instructed, “Come, lift your wife’s veil . ”

“With my hand?”

“Of course not . ”

Grandma Cheng reached for a special stick beside her . “Use this . ”

Shen Zhilie glanced at the stick and took it from the old woman’s hand . He lifted the veil with the stick .

The red veil was lifted . Ye Qianqian seemed to be experiencing some kind of magical effect .

She instantly felt that the weight on her neck had been lifted .

She looked up at Shen Zhilie and grumbled with a frown, “My neck hurts, hubby . ”

Hubby…

Shen Zhilie felt his heart leap when he heard her say the word . He proceeded to remove the golden phoenix coronet from her head .

At last, Ye Qianqian felt liberated . She flexed her neck freely and almost screamed out of joy .

Grandmother Cheng left the room and closed the door on her way out .

Ye Qianqian glanced backward, trying to see if Grandmother Cheng had really left, but Shen Zhilie stood in front of her, blocking her view .

Shen Zhilie’s charming, clear amber eyes shone with deep admiration for his bride .

“You look gorgeous today,” he said softly as he held her hands in his .

Ye Qianqian winced upon hearing this . She pursed her lips and retorted smugly, “Don’t I usually look this beautiful?”

“You’ve never looked so beautiful . ” Shen Zhilie reached out to remove the necklace from her neck .

He held it in his palm and felt its immense weight . He exclaimed, “It’s really heavy . Have you been wearing it everywhere you went the entire day?”
