Xue Manor

The next things that happened were all a blur to Yang and Mei Lin. Everything that happened was fast for their minds to process. Their hands did not leave each other's hold as they began the Tea ceremony. Yang had broken all the efforts that Mei Lin had taken when he also served the tea with her, helping her even when he was supposed to stay seated beside his parents.

Everyone had accepted Mei Lin's plus one as Yang did not let her hands go, forcing the newlyweds to work together as they served every single one of the elders, to their parents, and uncles and aunts then lastly, to their siblings. Mei Lin had received various gifts and thick red envelopes from everyone with a grateful heart.

"Welcome to the family, dear." Mother Zhao had whispered in Mei Lin's ears before everyone had transferred locations into the banquet hall again where the after party and lunch will begin.
