Lu Lijun didn’t know what was wrong with Jiang Yuyan neither he asked what happened but he comforted her just the way she did it for him till now, hugging and caressing.
Jiang Yuyan continued crying in the little guy’s embrace, who was trying his best to calm her down. For Jiang Yuyan, it was a relief that Lu Lijun didn’t know what happened and he didn’t even ask. He became her shelter to let her cry as much as she wanted without questioning or judging her.
Once Jiang Yuyan stopped crying, she didn’t talk but preferred to sit quietly, and Lu Lijun didn’t disturb her. She spent her day till the evening locked inside her room while Lu Lijun accompanied her with his silence.
Ning Jiahui and Mo Ruolan were sitting together thinking how to stop it, but both couldn’t find the way. Jiang Yang and Jiang Peizhi were not there, and even if they were present there, it was difficult to change Jiang Yuyan’s decision.
Both finally decided to go to Su Hui to ask her to stop it. When both ladies reached Su Hui’s room, they saw few servants coming out from inside and when they saw what was inside the room; they felt speechless.
Su Hui noticed them. "Elder sister, sister Ruolan, it’s good that you are here. This is all for tomorrow’s wedding."
Few boxes were placed on the table in the room which had the things required for the wedding. A Traditional Chinese wedding dress, jewelry and a few more things for the bride.
"Su Hui, we are here to ask you to stop all this," said Ning Jiahui.
While going through the things of the wedding, Su Hui replied, "I am afraid that I will disappoint, elder sister."
"Su Hui, this is not good...." As Ning Jiahui said but Su Hui interrupted her, "I always thought to have a grand wedding for my son, but it’s fine as long it’s good for our family."
Pulling out a red wedding dress from the box, Su Hui showed it to Mo Ruolan. Ignoring the displeased faces of the two women standing there, Su Hui said, "This will look good on Yuyan and see this for the groom."
Without looking at anything, Mo Ruolan stepped out of the room, not willing to talk a single word to this stubborn woman and Ning Jiahui followed her too.
Once they left, Su Hui’s expression changed to a serious one and she mumbled, "I am sorry, elder sister, but I am doing it for my son and I hope you will understand it one day."
Su Hui knew why these two came to her, so she didn’t give them any chance to say something that will change her mind.
In the evening, there was a knock on the door of Jiang Yuyan’s room. As she opened it, she saw Su Hui and Qin Xiu were standing at the door with two servants standing behind them, carrying a few boxes. Jiang Yuyan understood what it was and moved to the side so that servant could enter the room to keep the things inside the room.
Opening the boxes to show what was inside, Su Hui instructed, "This is your wedding dress that you have to wear and this red robe is for Lu Feng. You have to bring it to the temple as it meant to be from the bride’s side as a gesture of accepting a man as her husband. You have put it on him by yourself. This jewelry is for you. Make sure to wear it all."
Jiang Yuyan was standing silently, not reacting much to anything. Taking her silence as her approval, Su Hui left and Qin Xiu followed her mother-in-law.
On the way back to the room, Qin Xiu said, "Mother, Lu Feng is not back home yet. Do you think he will really come to the wedding?"
"He will as he cares for her and can’t keep her waiting for him," Su Hui replied.
"Hmm! I hope so."
That night, everyone went to sleep not being aware of what the next day would bring for them, might be something that no one would ever dare to think about it in their dreams even.

The next day morning...
All the family members were in the living room, ready to leave for the temple. Elder Lu didn’t want to attend this wedding but grandma Zhao Shuang insisted on him saying they should give their blessing to the couple even though they were unhappy with the wedding.
"Mother, Lu Feng is not back home since yesterday and I don’t think he will be back." Qin Xiu was worried.
"I sent him messages to be there till the time and he will be there. Not for us, but for his bride." As Su Hui said it, but no one wanted to hear her saying it, the word- bride.
"I think we should leave as Lu Feng might come there directly," Su Hui instructed and unwillingly others got ready to leave.
"Qin Xiu, bring Yuyan out. Tell her we are getting late," Su Hui instructed, being ready to go out.
Nodding Qin Xiu left. In a while she came back and looked panicked, "Mother, Yuyan is not in her room."
"She must be somewhere. Just check properly."
"No one is in her room. Lu Lijun is not there too, and I searched everywhere."
Before Su Hui could say anything, everyone’s eyes caught a sight that shocked them. They couldn’t think, whether it was a reality or just a play to please the kid.
Jiang Yuyan and Lu Lijun entered the living room, Jiang Yuyan wearing a red dress meant for the bride while Lu Lijun was wearing a red robe meant for the groom. Both looked like a bride and groom, but it was not convincing as Lu Lijun was a kid.
They thought Lu Lijun must wear it for the fun, but still, it was not a good sign and not a good sight to see.
Su Hui went to Lu Lijun and said softly, "Dear, this robe does not mean for you, this is for the groom. Take it out so we all can hurry to the wedding."
"He is the groom and the wedding have been finished, already."
