Chapter 773 419: Pranks in the Bridal Chamber, Snatching the Groom (Part 2)

Zhao Qingge accidentally overheard such comments. Now that she was married, she naturally invited these colleagues to the wedding banquet. It was not just to slap them in the face, but also to reclaim all the gifts she had given over the years!!

I waited until I was thirty-four to seize an opportunity. I want to prove a point, not to show that I am exceptional, but to tell others two things;

First, what Zhao Qingge has lost must be taken back!

Second, my eight youthful years teaching at Beihua University truly existed!!

"The phoenix flies, the parasol is its perch. Blessed and happy, a place for good fortune... Now let's welcome the bride, step up the grand hall!"

The music resumed, grand and majestic. Zhao Qingge slowly appeared from the southwest corner of the stairs, instantly drawing the attention of hundreds of eyes present.

The layers of the wedding dress she wore rippled with gauze fluttering lightly, the skirt adorned with intricate gold-thread patterns, the chest and neckline dottily embellished with precious stones and small diamonds, exuding a pure and clean glow. The thin gauze water sleeves, hem, and train were not purely white but graduated into red, flaming red at the ends, tinged with gleaming gold, lightly swayed by the breeze.

It was as if the evening glow at the horizon, a mythical phoenix flapping its wings.

"Wow, this bride... looks beautiful, almost not like a human!!"

"I declare this couple to be the most good-looking I've ever seen in any wedding I've attended in my lifetime!"

The guests' praises were drowned out by the rising applause. Zhao Qingge looked straight ahead, walking directly towards the stage, while noticing with the corner of her eye the envious yet jealous expressions of her former colleagues. For this, she showed a slight smile.

When passing by Yu Huizhi's table, seeing the three familiar faces, noting their expressions similar to those of her colleagues, Zhao Qingge's smile broadened as she even nodded slightly in greeting...

"What's she showing off for?!!"

Xu Manning almost couldn't hold back from getting up and charging forward, intending to pull Zhao Qingge down and give her a furious hit.

Wu Wenyue's expression was also unpleasant, chewing on a gummy candy fiercely, her cheeks bulging as if treating the wedding candy as Zhao Qingge.

Huang Tianxuan forced a smile and mocked softly: "Hehe, it's her first marriage, that feeling is understandable. When she marries again next time, surely she won't be this excited."

"Marry again, who would even give her the chance?!"

Wu Wenyue asked rhetorically and then looked towards Li Peifeng on stage, her eyes flickering with murderous intent: "Not even leaving her a chance for the wedding night!!"

"Do you really want to?"

Xu Manning hesitated, considering Wu Wenyue's overwhelming hatred, her mind instinctively recalling some irritated words exchanged in the car on the way to the wedding venue by the three of them.

But if they really did that, wouldn't it be too cruel to Zhao Qingge?

While the three girls whispered among themselves, Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi were on pins and needles, fearing the few of them might rush onto the stage and create a scene. Naturally, the main figure on stage, Li Peifeng, was also extremely nervous.

Below the stage, the trio of Wu, Xu, and Huang were restless, their thoughts changing constantly as if they might explode with rage at any moment. Not to mention he didn't expect He Yimeng would also be here, and unlike the previous three, though they were angry, they didn't bother to look at him or Zhao Qingge, not caring about what was happening on stage, only burying themselves in secretly planning some revenge.

Only He Yimeng stared fixedly at the stage, unblinkingly, with an eerie smile like a lunatic... clearly not in the right state of mind!

This inevitably made Li Peifeng shudder, not daring to reveal an overly carefree happy smile throughout, maintaining very restrained facial expressions to avoid further provoking the four below the stage, while taking turns to do mutual comforting with Zhao Qingge.

Fortunately, the wedding ceremony was very simple, as Li Peifeng had proposed earlier, additional parts were omitted, and the duo didn't have groomsmen or bridesmaids, which meant they also skipped games and interview sessions.

So when it came to the formal ceremony, both sets of parents said a few words on stage, the couple exchanged rings, and finally, the newlyweds thanked the guests, and it was all concluded, with the total duration not exceeding half an hour.

In this half an hour, those four bombs did not explode!

But Li Peifeng did not dare let his guard down, more inclined to think the fuse on the bomb was really long, not yet burnt to the end. After all, although the ceremony was over, the wedding was not.

"With this ceremony, uniting two families in this happy union, the poems celebrate the harmonious home, wishing a hundred years of calm and happiness..."

Accompanied by cheerful and grand music, Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge walked hand in hand down the stage, stepping onto the stairs, ready to head into a guest room to change into their outfits for toasting.

As soon as they entered the stairway, away from the guests' watch, the bride Zhao said in a bland tone: "Are you getting married or going to war? Can't you smile a bit more genuinely?"

Li Peifeng put on a professional fake smile: "Happy, aren't I? Am I not smiling happily? The camera can even capture my molars."

Zhao Qingge neither confirmed nor denied, switching topics: "We should first go to your parents' table for toasting."

"No need, they're both not drinking today."

"Even if they aren't, there are still your other relatives. We should go to that table first!"

Li Peifeng understood clearly what Zhao Qingge was thinking. She wanted to use the opportunity of toasting to further humiliate those three defeated rivals.

Why make life difficult for other women? Aren't you afraid of mutual destruction?

Li Peifeng sighed silently.

While the newlyweds were changing outfits, the terrace had already started with dishes being served, and the wine was excellent, with whites, reds, and beers, all sorts of choices available; the banquet was a Chinese-Western fusion of very high standards, the dish names so long and elaborate like Matsutake Mushroom and Abalone Soup, Fortune Tiny Piglet, Garlic and Chencun Noodles Steamed Lobster, and French Tomato Art Chicken Egg...
