The wedding proceeded as scheduled.
The event took much effort on Mu Xichen's part.
Li Beinian was exhausted just from going along with the plan.
Before the wedding, the bride and groom were not allowed to meet.
Although the two of them had lived together for a significant length of time, still, they were left yearning for each other in the week before their wedding.
Before Li Beinian got married, she lived in the old mansion of Qian Zhou.
Every time she saw the little building next to it, she would imagine Mu Xichen standing opposite it.
She imagined him looking at her with his deep, dark eyes. Although his expression would be serious, he could not hide the twinkle in his eyes.
He was doting and indulgent.
"Nian Nian, why are you in a daze?" Old Master Li walked in with his cane and a smile on his aged face. "You're about to become a bride, yet you're in your own world."
