CHAPTER 453
Bai Renxiang went to meet her friends slash bridesmaids. The ladies were chatting away and giggling when she came.
"It\'s quite lively around here. What are you pretty ladies giggling about?" Bai Renxiang inquired as she sat on one of the empty seats beside Yi Changying.
"Ah! Renxiang, you are finally here.
"Yes. I was told that my attention was needed here," Bai Renxiang crossed one leg over the other.
"That is correct. You and your husband have been busy greeting the guests. It is almost past 10:00 pm," Yi Changying said
"Well, you know how this whole thing goes. The funny part is that there are still some guests we have not greeted," Bi Renxiang chuckles a sigh. "Anyway, where is Xiaozhi?"
"She is going to the stage to give an announcement about the last part of the wedding reception party," this time ot was Ye Yumi that answered.
Before Bai Renxiang could utter another word or throw another question, the clanking of a spoon on a glass cup echoed all wound the hall.
*clank clank clank*
"Please may I have all of your attention?" Ning Xiaozhi\'s voice followed after the sound.
Every chatting guest stopped whatever they were saying and turned their heads to the stage. There is a spotlight on Ning Xiaozhi now making her stand out for all to know who asked for attention.
They wondered who she was and what she had to say. It must be of something of great importance for her to be on the stage, under that spotlight.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I know you must all be wondering about who I am and what I have to say to call for your attention," Nung Xiaozhi said.
It was as if she could read their minds- but it was obvious with the way most of them stared at her. It was written all over their faces.
Ning Xiaozhi flashed them a small smile at them. "I\'m the maid of honour of the winter bride. My name is Ning Xiaozhi... That aside, the wedding is almost coming to an end and we have a special activity for you all," they announced.
"Special activity?"
"What other activity is there? Is it like the gifts?"
"This day just keeps getting better and better."
"I wonder if this special activity is going to be fun. I really want to know what it is."
The guest\'s whispers of their inquisitiveness filled the hall. Everyone wanted to know what more they would be experiencing in the reception of the winter couple.
"Please, lend her your ears," Mrs Li gently hit a spoon with her glass cup to call the almost noisy hall back to order.
As the hall finally, went quiet and everyone\'s attention was now on Ning Xiaozhi, she proceeded to the concluding part of the announcement.
"We will be doing a little game. As for the elders in our midstttttttt, games of whatever kinds you like will be brought in here for you. After an hour of playing, the next hour would be for a music show."
"For us youngsters... All the beautiful and handsome youngsters please can I hear a cheer for yourselves."
"Woohoo!" They all cheered and some even whistled.
"It\'s good to know you still have that energy... Okay, we are going to give respect to the elders and make use of the event hall just a few steps from here. Don\'t worry ladies, you Won\'t be walking too much for your feet in heels to hurt," she joked.
"Hahaha."
"So there, our gaming would begin. After everything, we\'ll all get to watch the fireworks, and give the last toast before we call it a day for this wedding. So shall we head out?"
"Yeah!"
"Then, let\'s go."
The separation began as the youngsters filed out of the room with faces full of excitement and expectation. The elders do not help but sigh at the energy they exuded.
As soon as the hall was cleared of any lady and gentleman, the waiters brought in different games of chess, Go and so on. They began pairing and fitting themselves into whatever suits them best.
~In the next event hall~
The guests have all ushered a seat at which they could see the couple from any angle they sat. After everything was settled, Ning Xiaozhi claimed the stage again.
"Welcome, youngsters. I am your host and idealist of these games. First of all, we are going to be starting with the shoe game," she announced and the audience went wild.
Bai Renxiang and Li Fengjin were asked to sit on the two chairs on the podium. It was arranged in a way that they were backing each other but their sides can be seen by the audience.
Both of them held one leg of Bai Renxiang\'s pair of heels. So her bare feet were placed on a small stool. Ning Xiaozhi then gave the set of rules for the game before they began.
It was like a series of questions and answers. But instead of the maid of honour, the audience gets to ask the question. This made it more thrilling especially for the audience who were eager to know more about the winter couple\'s relationship.
"Feel free to ask any question because there are no media or paparazzi here. But choose your choice of the word first before you ask," she warned.
"So the first question goes to... You," Ning Xiaozhi pointed at the first hand to be raised. It was a female.
"My name is **. Who fell in love first?"
"Yes, the bride\'s shoes went up first so she answers."
"It was Jin who fell in love with me first," Bai Renxiang answered with a smile.
"Is that true, Mr Li?" Ning Xiaozhi asked based on clarification.
"Yes, I fell in love first. And I fell hard."
At his answer, everyone laughed. The next hand raised and so was the next question.
"Was it love at first sight or night?"
