Chapter 724: Wedding Pranks
Translator: Lordbluefire
The Rong family didn’t set up many obstacles for Dr. Xu’s marriage proposal. After all, they weren’t into wedding pranks these days.
Everyone restrained themselves, allowing Dr. Xu to get into the bridal chamber with his groomsmen.
Rong Rong, dressed in a white wedding dress, sat on the bed. Her head was covered with a veil.
She watched shyly as the groom entered.
Dr. Xu, a mature and stable man who normally wore glasses, seemed a bit shy at the moment, hardly daring to look directly at Rong Rong.
Seeing the groom’s shyness, everyone couldn’t help but laugh.
Someone shouted, “Kiss her, kiss her!”
Dr. Xu laughed.
Holding a bouquet of flowers, he stepped forward, knelt on one knee in front of Rong Rong, and extended his hand. “Rong Rong, will you come with me?”
Rong Rong laughed and placed her hand in his, nodding with a smile.
Shen Ruojing then stepped forward, laughing. “To take the bride, you need to find the bride’s shoes!”
This was their local custom.
On the bride’s side, the bridesmaids would hide the bride’s wedding shoes, and the groom and groomsmen had to find them within a set time. If they did, they could leave with the bride.
If they couldn’t find them… well, a red envelope (money) could provide a hint.
Dr. Xu immediately smiled and looked around.
This room was Rong Rong’s bedroom.
The second bedroom of the Rong family for Rong Rong was not small. The room had a separate cloakroom and study, so there was a large area to search.
Dr. Xu then led the rest of the groomsmen to start looking in the room.
The bed was flush with the floor, so the shoes couldn’t be hidden under the bed…
Everyone started to search one by one, nearly turning the room upside down.
But they still couldn’t find the shoes.
Seeing that it was almost time for the wedding, Dr. Xu was getting a bit anxious and was about to pull out a red envelope from his pocket.
But at that moment, Chu Cichen stepped forward and stopped him.
From the moment this group of people started searching everywhere, Chu Cichen had been observing Shen Ruojing.
Shen Ruojing, looking triumphant, raised his eyebrows at him, his eyes full of provocation.
Chu Cichen understood that this woman wanted to play a game with him.
Dr. Xu was a bit anxious. “Mr. Chu, can you? If not, let’s give them a red envelope. It’s not a shame!”
The people around immediately laughed. “Yes, it’s not shameful to bow down to the bridesmaids for the sake of getting a wife!”
But Chu Cichen coughed. “I’ll be the one to lose face.”
As a groomsman, if he lost to Shen Ruojing, his family status would be in jeopardy!
Everyone understood what he meant, and they all laughed. They then looked at Shen Ruojing teasingly.
Facing the teasing of so many people, Shen Ruojing remained calm, just curving his lips into a smile.
Chu Cichen walked around the room twice. After that, he suddenly turned and headed for the cloakroom.
“We’ve already checked it. There’s nothing in the cloakroom!” Dr. Xu followed him.
But almost as soon as these words fell, Chu Cichen’s gaze landed on the shoe cabinet in the cloakroom.
The shoe cabinet was filled with Rong Rong’s high heels.
The pair of shoes that Rong Rong matched with her wedding dress today was white, and Shen Ruojing had hidden one of them, while the other was on Rong Rong’s foot. As they were wedding shoes, the white leather surface of the shoes had a white gauze bow decoration.
But at this moment, the white high heels on the shoe cabinet did not have bow decorations, so everyone had left after searching here just now.
However, at this moment, Chu Cichen stood there, waited for a while, and directly opened a cabinet, taking out a white high-heeled shoe.
Dr. Xu was slightly stunned. “Is this the wedding shoe? But it doesn’t look like the one on Rong Rong’s foot!”
But Chu Cichen looked at the shoe cabinet again. “But it doesn’t belong in this shoe cabinet either.”
Only then did Dr. Xu realize that this shoe was placed directly between another pair of white high heels. That was to say, there were three shoes there, and people who weren’t careful really wouldn’t notice this oddity.
Chu Cichen held up the shoe and looked at Shen Ruojing. “Right?”
“Right!” Before Shen Ruojing could speak, Rong Rong took the initiative to speak. “These wedding shoes are asymmetrical, so you’ve all been stuck with the idea that the missing shoe is similar to this one!”
She laughed.
Dr. Xu took the missing shoe from Chu Cichen’s hand and then walked toward Rong Rong with a smile.
He squatted down and solemnly put the shoe on Rong Rong’s foot. After that, he took her arm. “Beautiful bride, can you come with me now?”
After both her feet touched the ground, Rong Rong nodded.
She then left the room.
First, she and Dr. Xu bade farewell to her parents, and then the two arrived in the yard of the villa where the Rong family lived.
Next, it was supposed to be the part where Dr. Xu carried Rong Rong to the car, but to everyone’s surprise, Rong Rong suddenly stopped, looked at Shen Ruojing, and smiled. “My best girlfriend is here, so 1 want to toss the bouquet first..”
