Chapter 367 - 341: The Groom Chickens Out (2150+ Monthly Tickets Update)
The noise was coming from that row, and although others didn’t know, the three Yu brothers all knew a well. Besides their unpredictable Third Brother, who else would be so flippant?
Yu Minglang on the stage was previously lost in the emotion and responsibility he had imposed upon himself. He felt invigorated. Stimulated by Third Brother’s shout, he directly embraced Xiaoqian and began to kiss her – not on her cheek as they had agreed, but on her lips covered with her stunning lipstick.
Xiaoqian was stunned by his sudden move. Yu Minglang shouldn’t be so unrestrained. He was taking his role a little too seriously purely from a shout, but seeing the seriousness in his eyes, she closed her eyes and complied with his deep kiss.
Yu Minglang wasn’t provoked, he was genuinely passionate. Even though the speech read by the host they had hired from the radio station was complex, it surprisingly resonated with his feelings. His actions confirmed this-everyone else’s presence was background noise, he didn’t care at all.
He simply wanted to surrender to the call of his heart at this moment and give Xiaoqian a sincere promise.
The kiss went on for a bit too long. Initially, the folks found Youngest Brother Yu’s enthusiastic display amusing to watch. However, as he continued to linger in his passionate kiss, with the momentum becoming increasingly intense, they exchanged glances. Was he trying to break the Guinness World Record for the longest breath-holding?
Mother Yu was the most embarrassed. She felt like she could no longer control her spouse, as Father Yu seemed about to stand up to make a fuss. Ming Lang was not only disregarding his father’s instructions, but he also seemed to be taking it to another extreme. He not only kept his lips locked, but he was passionately involved in a French kiss, and didn’t seem likely to stop.
Thankfully, Ming Lang finally halted. He loosely let go of Xiaoqian, her face flushing from the kiss, and gazed at her lovingly.
The host sighed in relief. Glad that the intense affair was done, they hurried to the next procedure—parents’ speeches. Huh?
Where was the microphone?
It was in Ming Lang’s hand.
From the moment when Ming Lang uncontrollably deepened his kiss, the host had a feeling that they had been in the wrong place.
They had hosted numerous weddings for people of high status before but had never seen someone so disrespectful towards the host.
Seeing that Yu Minglang had finally stopped, the host breathed a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to move on to the next step, allowing the parents to speak next, the microphone in their hand was snatched away directly by Yu Minglang.
The audience instantly fell silent.
Yu Minglang, who took over the host’s job, calmly turned his head and said to the host,
“You talk too much nonsense. I can do this myself.”
The host was deeply shocked. They had never faced such an audacious man!
Meanwhile, the table of folks who had grown up with Yu Minglang, the Dean, broke into collective laughter.
Yes, that’s exactly what Youngest Brother Yu would do.
When Ming Lang first walked in with Xiaoqian in a formal and proper manner, everyone was a little unsettled, feeling that it wasn’t Ming Lang’s style.
Wouldn’t outsiders find it strange that the groom-to-be had snatched away the microphone himself? That’s typical of Youngest Brother Yu.
Mother Yu was ultimately stunned, and Father Yu immediately rose to his feet. What exactly was this hooligan up to in front of so many elders!
Getting up, he felt a hand on each of his shoulders and, turning around, saw his eldest and second sons had come over, standing behind their father. Eldest Brother had gauged from Youngest’s relentless kissing that the youngster was about to stir up something and had stepped in to stand between him and Father.
Having a troublemaker for a younger brother was already a headache, plus, if Father was to join the fray, it would cause more commotion at their engagement banquet.
Utterly unconcerned, or perhaps completely ignoring others’ reactions, Yu Minglang took the microphone and first addressed the crowd.
“In the future, at weddings and such, we might as well not hire an emcee. A bunch of cliches, I feel it’s better if I do it myself.”
Imbued with humor, he didn’t seem to care that their faces were filled with laughter. He directly turned to Xiaoqian and said,
“Chen Xiaoqian, I don’t want to recite those complicated marital vows. The stone that the vows are inscribed upon will not decay, but the vows will scatter with the wind. I just want to say a few genuine words to you, which are-” The entire audience fell silent, eager to hear what Yu’s heartfelt words were.
“You look really beautiful today.”
“Pfft!” Laughter broke out again. Was Yu there to confess his love, or create resentment? Did he marry his bride just because she was beautiful?
Xiaoqian didn’t know how to respond to him. Yu Minglang wasn’t usually an irresponsible person. But when he started his shenanigans, there was no stopping him!
Zheng Xu, who should have been sitting with his childhood friends, instead sat with Xiaoqian’s family. Hearing Yu Minglang say such irresponsible things at such an important occasion, in front of so many dignitaries, Zheng Xu turned to Hai Zhao.
“I should go up there and pull Xiaoqian down.”
Sitting on the other side of Zheng Xu, Chen Zilong nodded, “I think my brother-in-law is a bit over-excited today. Wait, big guy, have I seen you somewhere before?”
How did these two end up on the bride’s side? Zheng Xu had gone there of his own accord, while Hai Zhao had initially sat with the childhood friends. But Fourth Brother Yu, seeing Zheng Xu moving towards Xiaoqian’s family, not knowing what he was plotting, had shoved his good friend Hai Zhao over as well, to spy on Black Cucumber Zheng Xu.
Aunt Yu scoffed and whispered, “That face is the only thing she has going for her.”
“Well, you don’t even have that going for you, Auntie. By the way, did you get a costly beauty card?” Yu Mingxi sassed.
Just when the crowd was still caught up in the groom’s joke, they heard Yu Minglang on the stage continue.
“When I first saw you, I thought you were exceptionally beautiful. However, that wasn’t the major reason you attracted me.”
“I don’t believe that. You were attracted by my beauty mark. I am a psychologist; I understand your special fondness for beauty marks. If I had looked ugly, would you still want me?” Xiaoqian also let loose.
Go ahead and hurt each other. Since things have escalated this far, why not just make the situation more chaotic!
Oh, my! The newlyweds are fighting! This is exciting! They have attended countless wedding feasts, but have never seen such a lively and entertaining one. Putting the regular money gift aside, just for attending, they not only got to see a groom seizing the microphone impulsively, but they also got to witness the bridezilla in action!
“Change the groom!”
Someone randomly shouted, encouraging Ming Lang’s childhood friends, who collectively hooted and hollered. Even their friends joined into the chaos.
Hai Zhao and Zheng Xu looked at each other with Zheng Xu wearing a smirk on his face.
“I thought Er Ha had sent you here to make a positive contribution.” Zheng Xu was the first to chant, but Hai Zhao instantly caught onto the rhythm. As the two caused further chaos, the other childhood friends couldn t hold back anymore..
