Chapter 1570 - Engagement Ceremony

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The arrangement in the auditorium of Yunxiao Mansion was quite classical. Around the ceiling, various delicate and complicated palace lights surrounded the huge octagonal glazed jade lamp in the middle like the stars and the moon. The palace lanterns glowed with the glory of the light.

On the huge stage of the auditorium, there were thousands of countless Lolita roses, bright dark-red and colorful, like the magic color of a bloodstain, exuding beauty.

Lolita roses were produced in France. It was the rarest rose in the world. It was very difficult to cultivate a rose, thus one stalk was worth tens of thousands of dollars. But its flower language was an affirmation of love.

Eight o’clock sharp!

The engagement ceremony officially began.

The emcee of the engagement ceremony was Zhou Huiyan, the vice-chairman of the Zishan Club.

Wearing a light purple peony cheongsam and a bright black shawl, she stood on the high platform smiling gently. “Welcome, everyone, to the engagement banquet of Mr. Si Yiyan and Ms. Wen Xinya, to witness this engagement ceremony and the sweet love of this couple.”

In these years, Zhou Huiyan had witnessed Wen Xinya’s growth, her amazing transformation at the introduction dinner, and her glory at the coming-of-age ceremony. She watched her embark on this glorious journey step by step, with her own efforts and persistence. In her heart, she felt comfort, joy, and excitement.

So, when Wen Xinya invited her to be the emcee of the engagement ceremony, she was glad to come down and help.

After applause sounded from the seats, Zhou Huiyan continued, “Next, we have the protagonists of the engagement party, please put your hands together for them.”

In the auditorium, the romantic and gorgeous piano music was complemented by the elegant and sweet violin concerto.

Holding Si Yiyan’s arm, Wen Xinya stepped onto the long red-carpeted stairs towards the auditorium.

She was wearing a white engagement dress, a cheongsam-style neckline evening gown embroidered with a nine-tailed phoenix with silver light embroidery threads. She was surrounded by nine phoenixes with the sacred soft silver and holy soft white complementing each other, restrained and reserved, sophisticated and noble.

The soft cloth hugged onto her beautiful figure, her bumpy curves exquisite and graceful, and the skirt outlined the beautiful and sexy lines of her hips. Where the skirt suddenly stretched out under the hips was the bright silver Phoenix tail. The skirt was more than three feet long, beautiful and enchanting.

“They look like the perfect pair. Let’s give them warm applause again.” Zhou Huiyan looked at the pair that came together. Every movement was tacit, with occasional gazes, as if they could only tolerate each other’s existence. However, she could see the nuances, and she could tell that they loved each other very much.

Zhou Huiyan was sincerely happy for Wen Xinya.

After walking across the long red carpet, Si Yiyan and Wen Xinya stood in front of Zhou Huiyan.

For Wen Xinya, when she returned to the Wen family, Zhou Huiyan served as an elder, a teacher, a friend, and a loved one. In a sense, Zhou Huiyan was more like her mother, gentle, tolerant, generous, loving, and caring. She respected Zhou Huiyan like an elder and substitute mother.

Zhou Huiyan looked solemnly at the couple in front of her. “I am very glad to represent God today and witness your passionate love. I hope that in the future, you will continue to love and respect each other.”

Si Yiyan turned his body and looked at the woman in front of him. “I promise to be loyal and loving!”

Xinya’s hair was tied up in a classical and complicated bun. There were no extra accessories on her head except the bright silver nine-tailed phoenix with nine long feather tails, hovering between her hair with a few feathers stuck on her forehead. Her earrings and necklace were made out of feathers, and her entire body was pale and smooth as if she was washed in powder, exuding a unique and pure beauty, stunning Si Yiyan.

As Wen Xinya met Si Yiyan’s eyes, her eyes flashed. “I promise to stay by you!”

The corners of her mouth were up in a smile and her eyes were gentle, she looked very charming. She quietly faced him and mouthed: you look really handsome today!

Today’s engagement banquet’s dress and suit were all designed and sewn by her. Seeing Si Yiyan wear her engagement suit looking dazzling, her heart was filled with joy.

Zhou Huiyan smiled. “Next, please exchange the rings with each other under the testimony of God.”

Exchanging rings was the most important part of the engagement.

Si Yiyan took ahold of her right hand and put the engagement ring on her finger. “Love is like the passionate flowing blood, circulating endlessly, giving life endlessly. Thus, love is endless.”

The ring was very delicate. The silver ring was inlaid with black carvings. The black and white were integrated well, using the same material as the Slave of Love he gave to Wen Xinya. Its hardness was up to 100 times stronger than a diamond and was the hardest in the world.

He twisted the carving on the ring gently, and Wen Xinya felt the originally slightly loose ring change size until it was suitable for her finger.

Si Yiyan stepped forward and gently kissed Wen Xinya’s forehead. “No one except me can take this ring off.”

Wen Xinya smiled. “I swear to stay by your side forever and I vow to never leave you.” [1. It’s a Chinese poem wherein a couple, one vows to the other to never leave the other and always love the other. Since it was written in Classical Chinese, it would not make sense if it was directly translated, so these were translated by the meaning. She vows that unless the six things happen, they will never separate, but the six situations are all impossible to happen, so it shows her determination and passion for her love.]

After that, she gently held Si Yiyan’s left hand and put on the ring for him. The ring was of the same material as the ring on her hand, but only she could take it off.

The rings were designed by her personally, and the manufacturing process was completed by her and Si Yiyan.

Si Yiyan held Wen Xinya’s right hand, bowed his head reverently and kissed the ring. The silver and black ring was worn on her thin and slender finger, making everyone excited.

His left hand intertwined with Wen Xinya’s right hand, and two rings were lined up.

Wen Xinya lifted their hands, and the reporters quickly took shots of the two rings being next to each other.

Zhou Huiyan said excitedly, “Let me applaud them and bless their love forever!”

After speaking, she applauded fiercely.

Warm applause sounded from below.

Looking at Si Yiyan, Wen Xinya’s heart was filled with happiness and joy.

Below, Old Mr. Wen looked at the two people with tightly intertwined fingers and was quite touched, but his bark was harsher than his bite. “That stupid boy with the last name Si really got lucky, a beautiful woman is married to him.”

It was said that the more the mother-in-law saw the daughter-in-law, the more she liked her.

However, the son-in-law would never be satisfactory to the father-in-law.

Although he was not the father-in-law, he acted as a grandfather and a father, thus he was not easy on him.
