Chapter 201 - Toasts

She is nothing like what they expected her to be. In fact she is quite opposite to their imagination. 

She is no innocent. They could see that in her witty and inciting eyes. 

She isn't any ordinary woman who climbed the bed of the powerful man. She alone could be counted as strong, powerful and independent woman. 

Her aura gave away everything. 

The way she carried herself and the way she didn't even flinch with more than hundred pair of eyes looking at her, depicted how used she is to face the people around. 

She is excluding confidence and her eyes glistened with determination as she swept her eyes through the crowd. 

She has the indifferent expression etched on her face just like her husband. However, her stoic face increased her beauty and excluded her tough character. 

With one look, everyone could tell that she is a perfect candidate to sport the tittle 'Mrs. Braxton'. 

Meanwhile, Jasper scrutinized the expressions written on the faces of his guests. He couldn't help but smile in content. 

He knew that Biyu could face this people without even batting her eye. It is not her body nor her face which gives the impression. 

It is her aura, her demeanor and her elegance. 

Jasper took his wife's hand into his and squeezed it, making Biyu look at her husband. 

She could see the approval in his eyes and that made her smile back at him. 

Together, they climbed downstairs and everyone raised their glasses in the gesture to greet them. 

Jasper's hand, which is holding her earlier moved up to her shoulder and he hugged her sideways as he led her to the main table where his family and her family is sitting. 

Jasper's father who is talking to the guests earlier, smiled at the couple and excused himself before rushing to his son and daughter in law who is more like his own daughter. 

"You look stunning, princess. You make me remind your mother in law" he told as he gave a fatherly hug to Biyu. 

Biyu smiled and kissed his cheek. "Thanks dad. You look handsome too….more like Jasper's elder brother than his father" Biyu teased. 

They have grown closer to each other after her engagement. Though he have daughter, she is already mother of three and also the CEO of world renowned company. 

In addition to that she is the most demanding doctor. She is always busy with work and her family that she barely have time to spend with her father. 

Now, with his daughter in law coming back, he can dote on her, pamper her with his fatherly love. 

"You flatter me, kid. But some people here told me that I started becoming too old" her father in law pouted. 

Biyu laughed. She knew who would have teased her father in law like this and still managed to live. 

It should be his naughty grandchildren. 

"*cough*cough*….dad, I am here as well. How come you forget your favorite son" Jasper tried to get attention of his father. 

Getting failed in doing so, Jasper tightened his arms around his wife's waist and hugged her tightly. 

"Baby, am I visible?" Jasper asked, like a cute child asking for mother's attention. 

Of course, he wouldn't gave shown his true self when these many people are seeing them. Bodyguards have skillfully blocked the view from the others. 

"Dad, can you see anyone" Biyu asked, deciding to tease Jasper for sometime. 

"No princess. I can't!!  I'd there anyone else standing close to us" he asked, playing along with his daughter in law. 

He just want to know how far Jasper can go to get his wife's attention. 

Jasper pouted and looked at his brother's , brother in law's. But later realized that they will not help him but in turn, they might gang up with his wife and father against him. 

Karma is a boomerang!!

Whatever he have done in past is coming back to him. 

They continued teasing him for few more minutes and at last, Biyu melted after seeing her husband's puppy eyes and pouting lips. 

Other decided to tease him later. As guests are here, waiting to toast for new couple, they had no option but to stop. 

Jasper pulled his wife closer and whispered, "I will see how you will ignore me during night. It will be my turn to act invisible while you get for mercy" he seductively whispered. 

His husky voice made her gulp her saliva and his cold hands that are running to and fro on her bare back made her shiver. 

His legs teased her leg which is exposed due to the slit on her left side of the dress. Biyu controlled her m.o.a.n and her hands clenched her dress tightly. 

However, no one could see the naughty things Jasper is doing to his wife. The table is blocking them.

"Jasper, I am gonna lose my composed self" she hissed, when his hands travelled beneath the table and started drawing patters on her thighs. 

"Hmm…..I can't listen" Jasper chuckled. 

"Petty" Biyu hissed. 

As they had their petty banter, Jasper's sister and brother in law didn't miss the show. 

They couldn't help but chuckle. "Scott, do you think Jasper saw what you did to me when we got married?? Why am I feeling like he is mimicking you" Jean asked. 

"I don't think he saw us. That is eighteen years back and he is just twelve when we got married. Though he saw, I don't think he remember" Scott chuckled. 

"He proved that Braxton family is shameless too" Jean chuckled. 

Meanwhile, Jasper stopped his teasing only when Biyu blackmailed him. 

Noticing that, couple are done with their fun, Jasper's father took a glass and clinked it with spoon, making everyone shift their attention to him. 

And, the servants quickly came forward to serve the dinner. 

And at last, it is a toast time. 

"Jasper and my dearest daughter in law, whom I prefer to address as my daughter mostly" Jasper's father smiled at Biyu as he kissed her forehead. 

"You have loved and cared for one another for a long time. Together you have faced many hurdles and difficulties but never you lost hope in each other. This shows how strong your love is for each other and I am very glad that you can at last show us how strong you both are together."

"Today it's time to make it makes it official: you are now a married couple! I give you all of my congratulations and I hope that you feel the outpouring of love and support for the both of you that is in this room today." He said as affectionately looked at his son and daughter in law. 

After he finished his toast, Jasper's sister Jean took her turn to toast. 

"I have been seeing you both since long. Separately you are two wonderful people but together, you are even better. You finish each other's sentences and can communicate without even saying a word. I have seen it with my own eyes and I am very glad that my brother got such a wonderful wife for him"

"You have faced so much together and not everything has been happy and smooth. If isn't for this wonderful, strong and genuis woman here….it would not have been possible for them to be this happy."

"You both know how to make each other laugh and smile and you know how to comfort each other as well. Which is very important for husband and wife. I truly wish you the wonderful life ahead." Jean toasted as she wiped her tears away. 

She simply couldn't believe that her brother has grown up. He is still a small boy in her eyes who would try to snatch her attention all to himself. 

After Jean, Biyu's brother, Zhou Feng took his chance to toast to the new couple. Shortly after this banquet….he had his own party in his country.

"You are two peas in a pod, there is no question at all that you were always meant to be together. I have so much love and respect for the two of you, for the lengths that you would go to for each other to make each other happy. Never lose what you two have, because it is a priceless thing that you are lucky to be able to enjoy." he told. 

"From this point forward, you will be inseparable. You are not just living side by side, now you will be living as one team, a unit that will make important decisions and meaningful memories together. I honestly believe in your love and understanding towards each other. Have a happy life ahead" Feng told. 

As others are very emotional to share their toast, he decided to wind up the toasting at the main table. 

"Let us all raise a glass to the wonderful couple, my  beautiful sister and my best friend" Feng's fluent English bloomed around the hall as everyone raised their glasses and toasted together. 

"Now, everyone will be coming to us to give us their own toast. Love, be attentive and you will right away figure out who will be the loyal people to us" Jasper whispered to Biyu as the guests started roaming around again.
