After Wang Zhao and her group left in the wedding car, Zhang Ke and Wang Xuechun had to stay behind to get styled and change into a set of clothes before going directly to the hotel.
The lawn where the wedding was to be held was near the hotel, very convenient for coming and going. This was also to make it easier to arrange for guests who had come from afar.
It was not even ten o’clock when they arrived at the hotel. The timing was very good. As soon as Wang Zhao’s group arrived at the hotel, the sound of ceremonial cannons rang out. Xu Yingchun helped Wang Zhao open the car door and also received several red envelopes in the process.
The hotel should have been cleaned once. There weren’t many people in the lobby, and they smoothly took the elevator to the suite upstairs. There were two doors to the suite, one outside and one inside.
As soon as they reached the first door, they were blocked by people. Xu Yingchun and the other bridesmaids quickly stepped forward. They were all wearing clothes that were easy to move in today, just to help Wang Zhao block people.
Most of the people blocking the door were children or young people from Li’s relatives, mostly boys, with some younger girls. You could faintly hear older people strategizing in the back.
After many red envelopes were slipped through the door crack, the door was finally pushed open by Xu Yingchun and her group. There were still some onlookers in the corridor, mostly guests from Li’s side.
This was the first time most people had seen Wang Zhao, and they couldn’t help but gasp. Her appearance was too good. Even the children behind the door would say in childish voices, “The bride sister is so pretty.”
Children’s hearts are pure. As for what the adults thought, who knows.
However, most probably thought Wang Zhao was a pretty boy who had tricked the heart of the Li family’s young master with his face. But some people knew some inside information and could see with discerning eyes that Li Zhenguan’s figure wasn’t quite right, like he had been pregnant for several months. This seemed more like a shotgun wedding, of course, this guess also had conspiracy theories.
So Wang Zhao successfully debuted among Li’s relatives based on her face alone, unanimously considered to be a gold-digger coveting the Li family’s assets with ill intentions.
But there were also a few young boys who couldn’t stop staring at Wang Zhao, privately surprised that cousin Zhenguan’s wife was so beautiful.
Young people are always more tolerant of beautiful people.
Wang Zhao entered the suite and saw many people standing in the living room outside. Li’s wife-father was sitting in the living room. She had just greeted these two people when a large group of children surrounded her, mainly around Wang Zhao.
In this situation, Wang Zhao also became a bit flustered. The bouquet in her hand almost fell to the ground, and her dress was stepped on by someone, fortunately, Xu Hao supported her, preventing a tragedy from happening.
Xu Yingchun and the other bridesmaids quickly blocked people, and a lot of red envelopes were scattered out. These were basically small red envelopes. Wang Zhao was pushed to the door of the room, wanting to turn the doorknob, but felt it was locked from the inside.
“If you want to open the door, you have to give red envelopes!” The voice of the best man came from inside, and Wang Zhao recognized it as CC with one ear.
There were responses from others as well.
Wang Zhao quickly stuffed some red envelopes in. Originally, there should have been some small games here, mainly to test the bride’s sincerity, such as hugging someone with one arm or reciting some poems, but these were changed and deleted.
This was mainly Li Zhenguan’s idea, not wanting to make things too difficult for Wang Zhao. Li Zhenguan didn’t want Wang Zhao to hug other people, neither men nor women.
Almost all the red envelopes had to be scattered before the large group of people finally managed to enter the room with great difficulty.
To be honest, in this weather, Wang Zhao felt a bit of restlessness, with a layer of fine sweat appearing on her forehead. Fortunately, her makeup was set well and didn’t smudge much.
In the room, Li Zhenguan was sitting on the hotel bed, his legs covered with a thick red blanket embroidered with exquisite patterns of dragons and phoenixes frolicking. He was wearing a white fitted suit sitting on the bed, which made him look even more fair and clean.
Meeting Wang Zhao’s gaze, he couldn’t help but smile with his lips pursed, his eyes bright and shining.
Wang Zhao was stunned for a moment.
Not because of Li Zhenguan’s smile at this moment, nor because his current appearance dazzled her. After seeing each other for a long time, she could clearly point out several flaws on Li Zhenguan’s face.
This stunned moment was just because of a sudden realization.
The realization of the reversal of male and female roles, the realization that everything before her eyes seemed unreal, giving a sense of illusion like a dream bubble, and also as if in this instant, this person named Wang Zhao had a real sense of standing on this land.
Marriage is also a kind of bond.
The others thought she was stunned because she saw Li Zhenguan, and couldn’t help but laugh, teasing Wang Zhao. Even Xu Yingchun gave Wang Zhao a speechless glance.
But actually, this was also the first time Xu Yingchun, Xu Hao, and the others had truly seen Li Zhenguan in person. They didn’t dare to openly stare, only able to peek with their peripheral vision.
However, after just one glance, they couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts. This groom was a bit too handsome, but also a bit too young, looking no more than nineteen years old. Standing next to Wang Zhao, people would probably think they were sister and brother.
Mainly because Wang Zhao’s aura made her seem mature from a young age, looking much more steady than her peers. This steadiness made many people think she was twenty-seven or twenty-eight.
This was also the disadvantage of having bridesmaids who were acquainted with Wang Zhao and Chen Fangli. Almost at the same time they saw Li Zhenguan, they couldn’t help but compare him to Chen Fangli.
This was a human weakness that was difficult to avoid.
To be honest, if they were to choose a marriage partner, they would prefer to choose Chen Fangli, knowing his background and character.
Women marry to live a life, and this Li Zhenguan doesn’t look like someone to live a life with. Life in a wealthy family isn’t as easy as imagined. Didn’t you see that group of people when they first entered? All surnamed Li, all the husband’s family. Xu Yingchun and Xu Hao and others felt that Wang Zhao’s future life would be difficult.
Of course, this was all their one-sided imagination, but privately speaking, their fondness for Li Zhenguan was clearly not as much as for Chen Fangli.
Wang Zhao stepped forward, handed the bouquet to the person on the bed, and bent down preparing to carry him downstairs, but was stopped by a group of groomsmen.
She looked over.
