Chapter 162 - The Banquet (VIII)
"It's a pleasure meeting you sister-in-law."
"You can call me Ning just like Guiren, Yufan and Muchan," Ning liked the positive vibe she was getting from Guang and his jolly personality seemed quite interesting.
Wrapping his arms around Yuri, Gunag smiled, "She is my lawfully wedded wife, Yuri."
Smacking his shoulder, Yuri frowned, "Didn't I tell you to exclude the lawfully wedded part?"
"Babe, that adds more power in the whole wife introduction thing and—"
"No honey, it makes it sound weird," Yuri retorted.
"Ahh you two stop arguing, you both will give my wife a headache," Yichan snapped.
Giving Ning a hug, Yuri smiled, "I am so happy that we finally met. You know when I heard that Yichan got married, I was so mad at him for doing this when we were not around but then when Guang told me the whole story and the history you people share, I was so touched that I almost cried."
Ning smiled and said, "Thank you so much for coming."
"Ah how could we miss this and—"
Cutting her husband off, Yuri puffed her cheeks, "Don't listen to him because he is a liar. He was all ready to miss this banquet because we were supposed to head to Paris but when I insisted on coming back, he finally agreed. He is just pretending to be happy now because well, he can't frown. He knows that I'll punish him if he frowns so he wouldn't dare to."
"Babe, you promised me you won't bring this up," Guang frowned.
When the couple started arguing like small kids, Ning chuckled.
Hugging her from behind, Yichan smiled, "Don't mind them, they are always like this. They dated for 12 years before getting married so the bond they share is very different. But though they argue like babies, the love and adoration they have for each other is remarkable. You'll know what I am talking about when you start spending more time with them."
"I like them," turning towards him, Ning smiled, "All your friends are one of a kind and I like them all."
Ignoring Guang and Yuri who were now hugging each other, Bojing gestured Yichan something to which he nodded his head.
"What is brother Bojing saying?" Ning asked.
Pressing his lips on her forehead, Yichan smiled, "Something special."
….
Fifteen minutes later.
Switching on the microphone, Yichan smiled and Ning who was standing not too far away from him.
"I would like to thank each and everyone of you for joining us tonight."
Pausing for a while, he added, "You all might be thinking that it's a very special day, well, it is a special day as we are celebrating our fruitful and joyous wedding with all of you but I wouldn't like to tag this day as the most special day of my entire life."
Looking at Ning, he smiled, "Because the most special day of my life is when I saw my wife for the first time."
Closing his eyes, Yichan sighed, "My wife. You have no idea how satisfied and peaceful I feel whenever I call her that. Like she is mine, she is my wife, my wife. After doing so many stupid things, committing so many mistakes, she is finally my wife."
"Ning and I coincidentally and accidentally met on an excursion five years ago. At that time, I was young, stupid, silly and I don't know, crazy too. Well, you'll understand later why I am cursing myself so bad." Pausing for a while, he continued, "When I saw her for the first time on that excursion, I was baffled and almost lost my senses because she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my entire life. Well, I don't blame myself for that because she is beautiful."
"So as we started spending more and more time together, I started falling for her more and more. Each and every thing that she did made me feel giddy and the day I told her about my feelings, I was in cloud nine when he held my hand and told me that she felt the same for me too."
Sticking six fingers out, he smiled, " We spent a good six months together in that excursion and those six months were the best six months of my life."
Pausing for a while, he added, "Now you all must be thinking that how we both ended up being against and hating each other for five long years. So that happened because I am stupid and an idiot who wrecked and destroyed our healthy relationship. A small misunderstanding separated us for five long years and we ended up being against each other. Neither of us were willing to let down our stupid big bat business ego until our good friend Meili took an initiative to knock some sense in our head. When I realised how wrong and stupid I was, I did not waste a single second to fix everything and now here you all are, eating and drinking in our wedding banquet."
Looking at her, Yichan added, "Love, I know I made many mistakes in the past and ended up wasting five valuable years of our lives but I promise to not repeat them ever again. I promise to always keep you happy and I promise to love you until I take my last breath. You are the most valuable and precious one in my life and I cannot imagine my life without you."
When he stretched his hands towards her, Ning smiled and made her way towards.
When she placed her hand on his, Yichan kissed her hand and placed it on his cheek, "Five years ago we met, fell in love and got separated because of a stupid misunderstanding but we never fell out of love. After five years, we met again, got married and this time, I'll make sure that nothing goes wrong this time."
Taking out a velvet box from his pocket, he took out the diamond ring from the box and kissed her knuckles.
