Jun smiled as he continued to the next schedule "Now lets we hear a word or two from our happy couple"
The groom stood up and kissed his bride before walked to the front. Everyone giggled and clapped their hands again. These couple surely loved to show off.
"Thank you for you time tonight. Also, Thank you for the small present just now. They're beautiful memory of us. Gosh I don't even remember I grew my hair that long before"
He paused as the audience giggling "Never I expected to meet such a adorable girl, fell in love with her, dates her and .. marry her. My wife is the greatest gift that God sent to me. If winter represent my life then she is the sunlight that bring warm to me. Mother, Father thank you for giving birth and raised Cacha so well. My brothers and sisters, thank you for looked after her and preserved her for me. From today onwards, I'll take all responsibility to love and pamper her from you. I'll love her, cheer her, fullfill all her need and desire for the rest of my life. We both will live happily together until our old age" He bowed the Mr and Mrs Feng then to Cacha siblings. In his speech, Kenichi spoke in two different languages. So, everybody understood what he was saying.
Mrs Feng sobbed, She and her husband then smiled and nodded. They had entrusted their little one to him. They hoped the best for their journey ahead. Cacha's sibling smiled. Then Every one applaused again.
Kenichi was man with few words. His speeched tonight was short but directly the point and meaningful. It was from the buttom of his heart without any sweetener and colouring added .
"Now, The Groom's father to say few words"
Meanwhile,The waiters had already taken out the empty plates from the table. They now started to place the main dish.
Mr Anderson shooted his suit beforehe walked to the podium. Same as Kenichi, He also spoke in two language.
"First of all, on behalf of our big family, I would like to thank you all for coming tonight. Tonight is a big new mile stone for our son, his new life with his beloved wife. To be honesy, my son and me, we hardly had time to see seach other. A year ago, I heard he was in zurich. I was there as well. With a lot of effoer, I finally managed to seal a deal with him for dinner. I was excited because It was our meeting in more than five years. Just less than half an hour before, my son cancelled our appointment. I was very upsad and dissapointed. To brighte up my mood, My wife dragged me to a tourist destination there. I was walking leisurely with my wife when I saw a young man shamelessly kissing a little girl. I swore under my breath how shameless this younger generation was. My heart dropped when I saw the shameless man was in fact my son. I tell you, the picture of them kissing under sunset was taken by my wife in a yatch that we booked. We basically fasilitated their date"
Jenn snorted "Lied"
Andrew giggled "As a father, I have so many expectations and wishes from him. The most important one is for him to be happy. I knew that he's only smile when He was with this little girl. Charlene, Thank you my dear for be his light. Please also help me to look after him. Okay ?"
Cacha smiled widely and nodded. She looked at her husband "I'll do my best".
Kenichi grinned and kissed his wife hand.
"Thank you sweet heart. Let this father tell you, If one day in the future you have any difficulty, or if one day your awful husband did something bad to you or if he make you angry or sad. Please tell this father first, I'll sort it out for you,my child. I'm always here for you, I just a phone call away. If I'm not around, Your aunty is there for you, Your Nana and Grand are also always available for you"
By their custom, Cacha should change her surname to Anderson. For Andrew, Cacha was not his daughter in law, she is his daughter. To protect her was his responsibility.
"My boy, I was not a good father but you will be a good one. Don't do what I did to you. Be with wife, love her and respect her with all your heart. I wish you a happy marriage"
Then He signaled a watress to come. He took a wine glass from him "I invite everyone to stand up"
Everyone stood up and mimic him to hold their glass "Please join us wish our children have a smooth sail in their new life, blissful life and grow old together" He held his glass up "Cheers"
"Cheers" The audiences said loudly
then they gulped their drink.
Narumi glanced at her parents. Her mood was a little complicated. There was strong trace of jealousy and regret. Back then, The main reason she chose Mamoru because his position in thay family was stronger than Kenichi,he was the heir of the Yamaguchi. However, She and her parents overlooked Kenichi paternal family. Yamaguchi power was nothing compared to The Anderson.
The second reason was because the rumourof how cold and rudeless Kenichi was. She believed that he killed his the unborn baby with Yuri. Now, She started to doubt it. The pictures and the couple interaction, they clearly showed how gentle and loving man he was.
She understood her marriage mostly was motivated by power while this wedding was purely love. How good was it to be pampered by their parents in law. She wished she had that fortune.
"The Anderson is to stingy. They are rich but the wedding is too ordinary. Mamoru wedding was better and merrier than this" Mamoru mother critised openedly. As a mother, She did not want her son less superior then other.
She was right. For family like Anderson, The wedding was to plain. Many people who was economically and socially below them had wedding that few time more grand then them.
On the other hand, She was wrong. For Kenichi and Cacha, they did not want hundreds or thousand strangers to come on their big day. Fake smile and wish from those strangers had no meaning.They only wanted their beloved ones to come and blessed them.
Also interm of money, Kenichi and his father actually spent more money than mamoru's wedding. They held two days of banquet. For each of the banquet, the food ingridients were the top quality, The chefs were the best, The flowers were fresh. They hired the best make-up artist teams for three ceremonies. Not to mention, how costly to provide accommodation for the guests.
Mamoru parents and his parents-in-law clearly knew about these. They just did not want to admit it.
