The bride must not touch the ground with her feet during her wedding procession, as the customs vary.
Although Shen Mingzhu wasn't leaving for her marriage from her parental home, Pei Yang still followed tradition, carrying her from the room all the way down the stairs and into the wedding car parked at the entrance of the residential courtyard.
When Yan Yi saw the wedding dress Shen Mingzhu wore, he gave a faint smile.
He wasn't surprised by this outcome at all; rather, he felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction and joy.
Her choice made him realize he hadn't misjudged her.
She was, as he had imagined, steadfast and resilient, not swayed by material temptations.
But as a man, he also had desires.
No matter how composed and self-contained he appeared on the surface, his competitive and conquering drives were no less than any other man's.
Logically, he knew he should let go, keep his distance, and not disturb her.
