Love So Sweet

572 Wedding Banquet

The bride and groom met the guests again during the banquet.

Zhang Li Xue showed up with Bai Qi in a simpler version of her dress. The moment the host announced their arrival, the hall was filled with the sounds of cheering and applause.

The bride and groom both had very bright smiles on their faces as they faced the guests who came to celebrate their wedding.

All the time, while they were greeting the guests, Bai Qi would steal a few glances at the person who was holding his arms.

A faint, but warm smile appeared on his face as he thought of their wedding ceremony earlier that morning Now, he had become her husband and the world shall know that this fairy belonged to him.

The atmosphere in the hall was very lively with the host’s chattering voice.

Zhang Li Xue was in the middle of eating her meal when she heard that someone had prepared a little something for her and Bai Qi.

The two of them turned to look at the screen behind them. Then pictures from their kindergarten appeared. They were the photos that Zhang Yu Ying had shot and kept with her.

There were photos of them chatting in front of the school gate.

.....

Zhang Li Xue looked at this photo and wondered where did it come from as she had never seen it before.

Of course, she was unaware that her aunt had sneakily shot a few photos of her with Bai Qi and had kept them a secret for a long time. Back then, she only wanted to keep evidence of her niece’s admirers.

The photo changed and this time, there was a photo of Zhang Li Xue dressed in her flowery dress and Bai Qi as a tree. The two of them stood in a quiet spot and no one knew what they were talking about.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu Han was looking at the photo with a frown on his face.

He had never seen these photos and was unhappy to find out that his daughter and Bai Qi has been close from kindergarten.

Back then, he has been watching his daughter closely. How can Bai Qi still be close to his daughter?

His eyes narrowed. Then, Zhang Yu Han glanced at his sister who was seated across from him.

Zhang Yu Ying turned as if noticing that someone was looking at her. Seeing her brother’s gaze on her made her laugh. If they were younger, she would be scared of this threatening look. But now that they were older, Zhang Yu Ying did not believe that her brother would dare to chase her around. Even if he did, she could always hide behind her sister-in-law.

Soon, the photo changed again and this time, it was Zhang Li Xue in her school uniform while Bai Qi was dressed casually. Behind them was an elder lady.

Bai Qi remembered this photo very well.

At that time, Zhang Li Xue had appeared at his grandparent’s house wearing a school uniform. She told him that she came to show off the uniform. Unknown to him, the girl had worked very hard to skip grades so that she could attend school with him.

Unfortunately, he was unable to accompany her as his family was moving to S Country.

Bai Qi remembered how sad he was that he could not say goodbye to his little fairy. But then, she showed up and cheer for him. The two of them made a promise to meet each other again and when that time comes, he would be very good at basketball.

The memory made him smile. Bai Qi was glad that he had managed to fulfill his promise to his little fairy. His gaze fell on the elder woman again and Bai Qi realized that he missed his grandmother a lot.

He was a mischievous boy. Without his grandmother’s encouragement, perhaps, he would not be able to befriend Zhang Li Xue. Perhaps, he would still be that naughty boy and that would drive Zhang Li Xue away from him. If that happen, would he still be able to play basketball with her? Would he still be able to marry her?

Bai Qi decided not to think of such possibilities.

Glancing at the woman who was looking at the screen, Bai Qi realized that he could not even imagine a life without Zhang Li Xue beside him.

The screen changed again and this time, it was a photo of them at a wedding.

Zhang Li Xue caught a bouquet and sprained her ankle. Then, it was Bai Qi who had given her first aid. The photographer at the He’s couple managed to shoot a few pictures of them together.

Later, there was also a photo of them where Zhang Li Xue was a patient and Bai Qi was seriously looking at the board in his hand.

This photo was taken by Li Qin Yao when she accompanied her daughter after that appendicitis operation.

Then, there were also a few photos of them playing basketball together. This photo was taken after the couple had announced their relationship to Zhang Li Xue’s parents.

Bai Xi Xi would also appear in between the pictures.

The newlywed couple watched the photos of them together and exchanged a glance. It seemed that they haven’t gotten together for a long time, but they had faced a lot of things together.

Suddenly, the screen turned dark and a few seconds later, a video appeared.

Zhang Li Xue looked at herself sitting in the wheelchair while Bai Qi stood tall in front of her.

There were a tall tree behind them and colorful flowers surrounding them.

Then, Bai Qi went down to one knee and looked at her expectantly. It did not take her too long before she agreed to marry him.

The guests were regretting it a little bit that they did not get to listen to the groom’s proposal. However, Fang Su Jin was hiding with her partner in crime and they were afraid that getting too close would ruin the surprise that Bai Qi had prepared for her.

By the end of the video, Zhang Li Xue could not help but shed a few tears.

It was Bai Qi who had to coax his wife and hugged her so that no one would see her crying face.
