23 Wedding Reception- Part 1

Biyu was sitting on the couch in the living room, room when Xian passed from there. "Xian, where are you going?," asked his mom.

"Office mom," replied Xian and then looked at his watch.

"Today is your wedding reception," mumbled Biyu and got up from the couch. "Mom, I'll come home in the afternoon," said Xian. Chang and Chunhua came there as it was their school time.

Mark came there when Xian turned to him and said, "Mark let's go. The meeting is in one hour. Chang- Chunhua, brother Wang Feng will drop you to the school and also pick you up at noon."

"Ok brother," said both in unison. Xian and Mark then left the house. Brother Wang came there and told the two to come with him. Chang- Chaunhua left for school.

Mishi came out of the kitchen there when Biyu muttered, "Mishi, the designer will come in an hour with your reception dress so by then go get a warm bath and come quickly in the living hall."

"Mother, there's some work left in the kitchen." Stated Mishi.

"Don't worry girl. The maid was on leave and they'll come in an hour. Now go and get ready," said Biyu. Mishi smiled and walked towards her room to get ready.

Mishi was inside the bathtub and was in deep thoughts. "I can't even refuse Xian now for not going to a separate house. Mother has agreed with his decision. He has given that care to my brother and sister which was never given by anyone not even by our own family. He will surely kill me there but Mark said he's not that kind of person. Did I really miss something that day? Did Bai hide something from me? But she was the only one after my parents died who took care of me and CC.

She gave the money for their education whenever I was short of money so I can't get suspicious of her. Maybe there's a certain kind of misunderstanding between them. Let's make it clear after she'll come from her honeymoon," mumbled Mishi and after sometime she came out of the washroom.

Getting ready in a pink floral full length dress she went downstairs and saw there were many people present in the hall. Suddenly a hand dragged her and it was Biyu.

"The designer has been waiting for you since long," murmured Biyu and took her towards the couch.

"Mr Yang, here is the bride," said Biyu.

The designer got up from the couch and said, "perfect. I know what kind of gown will suit her." He selected a white gown for her and told the assistant to help her change. They walked inside a room which was on the left side of the living hall.

Mishi after changing looked at herself in the mirror. Indeed she was looking pretty. She remembered her wedding day which was not a wedding but today she was looking like a bride.

"Mrs Zhang, please wait here," said the assistant politely and walked out of the room. She remained in that position for a few minutes when Mr Yang shouted in happiness. "OMG. Perfect."

Biyu too smiled seeing Mishi and tightly hugged her. "Sorry for not being here at your wedding. Now you're looking pretty," mumbled Biyu in her ear.

"So this dress is perfect for our bride. You'll change into it (looking at his watch) when we'll reach the venue, at 3 p.m." Mishi changed to normal clothes and walked out of the room.

In school the exams are going on. It's the maths exam which Chunhua fears the most. She prayed to God to pass her this time with grace marks. The papers were distributed and she looked at it.

"Oh no!! Chang told me to study this but I was too lazy to read it." Chunhua murmured. She kept on reading the paper and counted how many questions she could do.

"Only 10 out of 50. I won't get passed. Let's do that which I know," mumbled Chunhua and started doing the questions.

After she completed those 10 questions she looked at Chang who was sitting next to her desk. "He should help me at this time," thought Chunhua when the teacher lightly hit her at the back.

"Chunhua, don't look at your brother and focus on your sheet," stated the maths teacher. She shifted her face from Chang to the paper and tried hard solving them.

"Time is over. Stop writing," the teacher commanded and started taking their sheets.

"Sir this is last..." and before she could say last the teacher snatched the sheet from her and went to other seats.

Chang looked at her and asked how was the paper. "I'll fail this time, Chang," mumbled Chunhua with a worried look and started hitting her head on the desk.

The next teacher came in and their classes continued till the break. Chang went to his homeroom teacher and told him that he and his sister wanted a half day leave.

"Why?," the teacher asked.

"For my sister's reception," Chang told the teacher.

"She got married. It's good then you two must be living with them." The teacher asked in confirmation.

"Yes teacher, we're also living with them," said Chang.

"Okay, go now and tell your sister that I wish her a happy married life," mumbled the homeroom teacher.

Chang thanked him and came out of the office. He held Chunhua's hand and they walked towards the gate.

"Brother Wang," shouted Chunhua and ran to him.

"Get into the car fast. The venue is quite far from here," said Wang and told them to sit in the back seat. Chang seated beside him and Wang drove away from there.

"Xian let's go. Your today's schedule is all clear," murmured Li Wei.

"Is he coming?," asked Xian.

"Yes, he's coming. But I don't think it's a good idea to invite him to the reception."

"Li, it's perfect. Let's go then," said Xian. Mark came there too and the trio left for the venue.

"Mom told me that you bought a separate home for you and Mishi, " said Mark, looking at Xian.

"Separate home?," mumbled Li while driving.

"Yes. I need privacy," stated Xian while looking at the phone.

"I know what you mean by privacy," said Mark sat sarcastically.

"Mishi is a nice girl. Xian you're misunderstanding her," said Li. Mark too agreed with him.

"You both don't tell me who's right and who's wrong," mumbled Xian looking at them.

Li smiled hearing him and said, "Xian why did you become like this? Now you're married so at least try to understand her. Talk with her about this and sort it out."

Xian, who was sitting next to Li, looked out of the window and reminisced about the day when she interfered between them. His phone beeped and he saw the message of his friend, Yin Mei.

He turned to Mark and asked, "Did you tell Him about my marriage?"

"No. Why?," asked Mark.

"She's in Beijing and messaged me that she will meet me at my reception,'' said Xian.

"Aunt Biyu told me to give her number," said Li.

"What? Mom??," mumbled Mark

"I know why she is doing this," murmured Xian and rubbed his forehead from his two fingers.

They reached the venue. "Mark and I will check the things," stated Li to Xian.

Xian walked upstairs towards the room which his mom texted him. He entered the room and saw Mishi was ready with her gown on. Only her makeup and hair were to be done.

"Xian," whispered his mom and dragged him inside. "How is Mishi looking?"

"Okay." Xian said with a displeasing look.

"You should at least say some nice words to her. You both love each other but it seems that you two aren't comfortable with each other, " muttered Biyu.

Xian smiled and said, "I love her so much mom. Oh okay means she's looking gorgeous and pretty." Biyu smiled hearing this.

"Mom, I need to change because I'm already late. Btw where are those two kids??," asked Xian.

"In the other room", said Biyu. Xian closed the door and walked towards the other room. Chang and Chunhua were ready, sitting on the couch and laughing with each other.

"Can I join you two?," asked Xian.

"Brother. Of course," mumbled Chunhua excitedly. Xian closed the door behind him and sat on the couch opposite to them.

"Well I don't get enough time to talk with you two," murmured Xian and rubbed his hands together.

"It's fine brother," said Chang.

"Do you need anything in the house?," asked Xian.

"Brother we already get more than enough," said Chang with a smile.

Xian smiled and thought in his mind. "Only she has an attitude problem. Her siblings are so sweet. What did she eat when she was in the growing stage."

"Brother, what are you thinking?," asked Chunhua.

"Ah nothing. Btw I've something to tell you both. I hope you both would like my decision and if not then feel free to say. I thought about getting shifted with Mishi in a new house.I mean...I know.....okay I just wanna know your opinion. If you both will refuse of course we won't leave," said Xian crossing his arms.

Chang looked at Chunhua and then at Xian. "Brother we never get separated from Sisi. But we also want her to be happy. I mean she suffered a lot and with this marriage we saw that she's happy. Of course we will choose her happiness first.

We both got a nice family and we're getting everything which kids want. Brother you both are married now so it's up to you both....I mean....yes you can. We won't oppose this if our sisi is happy," said Chang.

"You both are grown ups. Don't worry Mishi and I will come on weekends and she can come whenever she wants and same with you. Our new home is just 10 minutes away from the current one," mumbled Xian.

"Ok brother," both said in unison. Xian smiled looking at them and thought, " I know I'm lying to you both. But I think this is the best. You both shouldn't be involved in this fight of revenge between me and her."

"Xian go change your dress. I'll be with them," ordered Mark who opened the door and got in. Xian nodded and left the room.
