Chapter 900: Come And Pick Me Up Tonight
“Wedding gown..” Leng Zhiyuan froze.
“Yeah, wedding gown. I participated in Eldest Brother’s wedding, and at that time, Older Sister-in-law was wearing a white wedding gown. She was really so beautiful… When we got married, you wore a traditional Chinese styled gown, although you also looked beautiful, I want to see you in a wedding gown…”
Leng Zhiyuan, who was on the other end, became silent.
Upon noting her silence, Zhou Yao mocked himself as he laughed. His voice was even more hoarse as he said, “I know that I am forcing it. I do not have the right… just treat it as if I am talking nonsense, I…”
“Zhou Yao, come and pick me up tonight!” she said.
“What?”
“Seven o’clock in the evening today is an auspicious time. Come and pick me up at that time. You are not allowed to be late!” She hung up immediately.
Upon hearing the busy tone on the other end, Zhou Yao still did not react to what was happening. What did she say? She asked him to go and pick her up tonight?
His entire heart was alive again. All of the blood in his body was originally cold, but at this moment, it became boiling hot again. Tonight…tonight… He had never wanted nighttime to come so much in his entire life.
…
At night, at six fifty in the evening, Zhou Yao rushed over to the door of the Leng family villa.
He raised his head up to look up. The entire villa was bright with lights. It was not piercing to the eyes, but it was a gentle shade of amber. The moon light was clean and bright, and it added an ethereal glow to the villa.
The villa was very quiet. It was as if it was asleep. Zhou Yao coughed out loud and lowered his gaze down to tidy the butterfly bow on his neck. He was very nervous, and his palms were sweaty.
He parted his long legs and stepped forward. He stood on the steps and loudly knocked on the door.
Knock knock knock…
After he knocked thrice on the door, the main doors of the villa were pulled open. He raised his gaze to look over. Everyone was in the living room. The helpers were lined up in two lines, and there was a long red carpet laid out in the middle. Leng Zhiyuan held Leng Hao’s hand as she stood on the red carpet.
Leng Zhiyuan wore a white wedding gown. The sleeveless design showed off her beautiful shoulders. The cinch at the waist was very tight. Her slim, toned body was just so fragile like a willow, and the layers below were white lace that were stacked on top of each other, giving her a romantic and beautiful vibe.
She tied all of her long hair up today and placed a white veil in her hair. She stood underneath the yellow light and had a gentle expression on her face as she looked at him.
Zhou Yao was instantly dazed.
At this moment, Leng Hao parted his long legs and brought Leng Zhiyuan over.
Ye Xiaotao popped up out of nowhere and gave Zhou Yao a push. She was elated as she said, “Major General Zhou, what are you thinking? The bride is here.”
“Oh, oh,” he stuttered out loud, then he knelt down on the ground with one knee. He hurriedly handed the bouquet of white flowers that he’d held in his hands the entire time over to her and opened his mouth. He wanted to say something. He’d prepared many things that he wanted to say, but he forgot it all in an instant. His handsome firm face had a tinge of red on it as he stuttered out loud, “This… This is for you.”
His scared and helpless look made Ye Xiaotao cover her mouth as she laughed secretly. The helpers all looked over. It was still the first time that they saw the son-in-law being so silly. Just now, when he knelt down on the floor, there was a very loud sound when his kneecaps touched the ground.
Leng Zhiyuan lowered her gaze to look at him, and she curled her lips up as she stretched her hands out to receive the flowers he was handing here.
“Get up.”
“Oh.” He stood up quickly. The man was tall and immediately blocked the gate of the villa.
Leng Hao looked over at Zhou Yao. He stretched his hand out to pat his shoulder as he said, “Dad is still in a coma. An older brother is just like the father of the family. Zhiyuan said that she wanted to wear a wedding dress, so I sent her over to your side… As Leng Zhiyuan’s older brother, I also have many things that I want to say. With your situation right now, if not for Zhi Yuan’s persistence, I would not grievance her like that. I…”
“Older Brother!” Leng Zhiyuan cut Leng Hao off immediately and said, “We’re already at this stage. What are you saying all of this for now?”
Leng Hao glanced over at his younger sister. He decided to give into her, and he said, “Okay, okay. I will not say anything else.” He held Leng Zhiyuan’s small hand and gifted it to Zhou Yao as he said, “I will hand Zhiyuan over to you for two days…”
Zhou Yao looked at Leng Zhiyuan, and Leng Zhiyuan’s gaze was all bright as she looked over at him.
“Okay, thank you, Older Brother.” He nodded his head firmly before he took Leng Zhiyuan’s small hand.
He firmly held her small, boneless hand before he brought her down the stairs.
At this moment, they heard Ye Xiaotao calling out from behind. “Major General Zhou, where is your car? You came over to pick up the bride and rode a…bicycle?”
Leng Zhiyuan had a look behind her. There was a bicycle parked on the lawn. It was very old, and there was a bar in the front.
The moment she looked at it, she felt that it looked very old fashioned.
Zhou Yao looked over at Leng Zhiyuan. She was his small princess who was beautiful and pure. He said, “I heard others say that riding a bicycle during the wedding is very…romantic, so I also went to get one… I did not know that you were dressed so beautifully nor that the house would be decorated so formally. Why don’t… Why don’t you wait a while, I will go and exchange it for a sedan…”
He spoke as he was about to leave.
“Ay, Zhou Yao!” Leng Zhiyuan pulled his sleeve quickly, and she raised her slim eyebrows. With a smile on her face, she said, “Who asked you to exchange it? Did you ask me whether I liked it or not?”
Zhou Yao’s eyes lit up, and he said, “Then do…you like it?”
Leng Zhiyuan stepped forward immediately and said, “Should I sit in the front, or the back?”
“Front! Of course you have to sit in the front!” Zhou Yao walked forward to support the bicycle, Leng Zhiyuan was all nimble as she jumped onto the seat in the front.
Zhou Yao stretched his hand out to tidy the skirt of her gown before getting on it with his long legs. The soft fragrance that he missed so much was back in his embrace. He heaved out a breath of air with satisfaction before lowering his gaze to kiss her cheek. “Sit there properly. We are setting off now.”
He stepped on the pedals, and the bicycle was a little shaky. Leng Zhiyuan was both happy and excited as she screamed out loud. She did not turn her head back as she waved her hands at the people in the back.
Leng Hao and Ye Xiaotao stood behind to look on. Ye Xiaotao was extremely touched, and her face was drenched with tears. Leng Hao was both frustrated and loving as he shook his head.
…
Both of them rode over to the main doors of the villa and made a turn. At this moment, Leng Zhiyuan saw an extended version of black business vehicle parked at the corner of the street. There were three people standing by the side of the luxury vehicle, and they were looking at them with benevolent expressions on their faces.
Leng Zhiyuan had hot tears flowing down her face immediately. It was Grandpa, Dad and Mum.
All of them were here.
They came to witness this wedding that could not be considered a wedding.
Zhou Yao was also looking at them. He did not stop. Both of his feet were on the pedals as he cruised forward. He tightened his arms and held Leng Zhiyuan in his embrace. He lowered his gaze to kiss her earlobes as he gently asked her, “Wifey, are you cold?”
Leng Zhiyuan raised her eyelids and forced the hot tears back into her eyes. She had a bright smile on her face as she said, “I am not cold. I am not cold at all.”
“Then why don’t we speed up?” he asked with a smile on his face.
“Sure.”
Zhou Yao immediately pedalled on the bicycle even harder. A gust of cool wind blew on the early spring night. It was just like a pair of warm hands. Leng Zhiyuan opened her arms up with an “Ah!” as she called out loud.
Zhou Yao had a pampering smile on his face.
At this moment, they heard something behind them. Xiao Zhi was calling out to them. “Major General, Older Sister-in-law!”
Zhou Yao and Leng Zhiyuan turned their heads back at the same time. All 12 Flaming Forces soldiers were there. They’d ridden the same old styled bicycle that Zhou Yao was riding, and at this moment, all of the street lamps in the city shone down brightly on the streets with its neon lights. They quickly became a beautiful sight on the streets.
