The bride was dressed in a snow-white wedding dress. Her long bluish-green hair flowed down to her heels, blending seamlessly with the beautiful white long dress. The dress was very long, trailing on the ground for two or three meters. When a gentle night breeze blew, it fluttered gently, looking alluring and graceful. The glittering gems and diamond inlays at the hem of the dress shone with an exceptionally dazzling and gorgeous light under the illumination of the crystal stones.
The bride smiled at everyone. Although she was only thirteen years old, she was already very beautiful. Her facial features were extremely delicate. A pair of big blue eyes sparkled brightly, clear and lively. Combined with her pink and cherry-like small lips, she looked just like a pretty doll.
I had never seen such a beautiful doll before, so I couldn't take my eyes off her. Like everyone else, my eyes were shining with amazement and admiration.
The groom, Aaron, stood beside her, astonishingly handsome. His tall and perfect physique and charming and alluring temperament made him look nothing like a fifteen-year-old at all. His face shape was still perfectly enviable. His nose was high, straight and full of a sense of strength. The line of his chin was elegant and noble, and an elegant temperament emanated from him.
He was wearing an extremely luxurious long white dress. Under the interlaced halos of the crystals, he exuded a bewitching and charming aura. He wore valuable rubies, sapphires, purple transparent diamonds, emeralds and black pearls on his ears, neck, wrists and even ankles. However, all these exquisite ornaments were just supporting roles for him. They all paled in comparison to his overly outstanding and charming luster. He wore these ornaments entirely because of the occasion.
The female guests in the banquet hall, regardless of age, were all staring at him tightly, for fear of missing every detail about him. The several young female guests in gorgeous clothes closest to me not only had lecherous looks in their eyes but also almost drooled.
It could be said that the groom's excellence far surpassed that of the bride. Whether it was in appearance, temperament or physique, his dazzling brilliance far exceeded that of the bride.
However, I didn't like the groom's eyes. They were deep, like the extremely deep sea, unfathomable at a glance, and still gloomy, just like ice that couldn't melt for a thousand years.
The female guests around Lady Pessner started whispering to each other again. Perhaps they were complimenting the lovely couple. I saw a satisfied smile appear on Lady Pessner's face.
The lovely couple walked hand in hand to the tall spiral rotating white jade staircase. The staircase was very high, and two white-robed priests wearing white hats stood at the top of the staircase. The newlyweds walked slowly towards them.
Under the blessings of the priests, the two newlyweds each drank a glass of wine with purple liquid, and then stood facing each other. The priests sprinkled holy water and flower petals on them.
The flames burning on the torches on the wall were burning some unknown spices, emitting a wonderful smell mixed with the fragrance of lavender. It was faint and gentle, gracefully lingering around the entire banquet hall.
After the lengthy ceremony ended, the two newlyweds walked hand in hand down the high rotating white jade staircase. Everyone burst out deafening cheers.
The music in the banquet hall regained its previous liveliness and cheerfulness. At this moment, whether it was the noble and beautiful noblewomen or the high-ranking officials and dignitaries, they were all dancing gracefully in the dance floor. It was a kind of group dance with a very special and graceful dance posture. As the long skirts swayed, they rippled like beautiful little flowers. In the middle of the dance, they would also exchange partners, gracefully raising their left or right hands to welcome the arrival of the next noble partner.
The wonderful music was floating in the air and the graceful dance postures continued. However, I quietly slipped out of the banquet hall, preparing to go back to my small attic to sleep. When passing by the garden, a clear and cold fragrance of flowers hit me. While I was closing my eyes to enjoy it, a very faint sobbing sound suddenly came from the grass not far away.
I was stunned for a moment and hesitated a bit, but curiosity still got the better of me. I walked gently towards the grass, pushed aside the weeds in front of me, and saw that under the silver moonlight, a girl in a blue flowing long dress was squatting on the ground crying. Her narrow shoulders were constantly trembling. Her short dark green hair was close to her ears, making her curved light yellow gemstone earrings particularly conspicuous. Her eyes were ice-blue and translucent. At the moment, they were filled with tears that kept flowing out of her eye sockets.
"Xue... Dair?" I couldn't help exclaiming, "Why are you here?"
Come to think of it, I hadn't seen her for a long time. Now that I suddenly saw her hiding in the grass and crying, I was naturally shocked.
She raised her face. It was a petite and delicate face, full of tear stains. When she saw that it was me, she turned her face away, immediately got up, and her agile body flew away from the other end of the grass like lightning. In an instant, she disappeared without a trace.
There are generally only two reasons why a woman hides and cries. One is that she has been wronged, and the other is, of course, for a man.
Today was the wedding of that sinister guy. The reason why Xue Dair was crying was obvious.
I sighed helplessly, knowing that I was powerless to help her. Since ancient times, those who are sentimental often end up with nothing but regrets, and these regrets are endless like a continuous river.
