Chapter 645 - 648: Bustling with Excitement

Their official reason for coming was to add to Shen Yueyue’s trousseau, but in reality, it was also to maintain close ties with the Shen Family.

Whether Shen Yueyue knows them or not doesn’t really matter to them.

The most important thing is that their goal has been achieved.

But for such a joyous occasion, the Shen Family wouldn’t turn guests away.

After all, the more people, the merrier.

These people aren’t here to cause trouble; they’re just here to build connections, adding to the festivities, so of course the Shen Family has no objections.

The lively atmosphere continued until after 9 o’clock when the Chen Family’s convoy arrived to pick up the bride.

Getting in, of course, wasn’t immediate.

Even in ancient times, there was the tradition of blocking the door, let alone now.

Although it wasn’t as difficult as passing through five barriers and defeating six generals, it indeed wasn’t easy for Chen Bing to come in.

After much difficulty getting up to the second floor, he was still blocked outside the door.

Jiang Ran stayed by Shen Yueyue’s side and wasn’t blocking the door, but Shen Yueyue’s bridesmaids were behind the door, giggling as they demanded red envelopes from the people outside.

The red envelopes had been prepared in advance. Hearing the bridesmaids’ demand, they were immediately passed through the crack under the door.

After receiving the red envelopes, the bridesmaids didn’t open them but continued shouting outside.

"The red envelopes aren’t big enough. You need to give a big one to open the door."

Outside, Chen Bing’s voice soon rang out.

"Big ones, of course big ones! I’ve got them ready. Just open the door a crack, and I’ll slide the red envelope in."

Hearing this, Jiang Ran couldn’t help but laugh first.

At this point, Chen Bing’s cleverness finally came in handy.

Hearing Jiang Ran laugh, Shen Yueyue also started laughing.

As the two were laughing, one of the bridesmaids said, "That won’t do. We can’t open the door without the red envelopes. Otherwise, you can throw them in through the window."

Shen Yueyue’s room was on the second floor, so throwing the red envelopes in through the window was practically impossible.

So in the end, they had to open the door.

The bridesmaid understood this too; she was just saying these things to make things more lively.

After some bargaining, they finally decided to double the number of red envelopes, and only then did the bridesmaids agree to open the door a crack.

As the door cracked open, the red envelopes were immediately shoved in.

However, as the bridesmaids reached out for the red envelopes, the door was pushed open forcefully.

The ones pushing the door were some groomsmen, one of whom was Pei Yang.

Pei Yang’s face was full of a radiant smile, his voice incredibly loud.

Moreover, Jiang Ran was most familiar with him, so upon hearing his laughter, she immediately looked over at him.

Almost as soon as Jiang Ran looked over, Pei Yang glanced back at her.

As their eyes met, Pei Yang’s grin grew a bit wider.

It’s just that this wasn’t the right occasion for a conversation, so after smiling, Pei Yang went on to do what he needed to do.

What he needed to do was help Chen Bing look for the shoes.

It seems that no matter when you get married, searching for shoes is a task that must be carried out.

Watching them buzz around the room like headless flies, unable to find where the shoes were hidden, made everyone else laugh.

It was not a mocking laugh.

With each burst of laughter, the atmosphere became even more lively.

The more it is like this, the more fun it is.

If there wasn’t even laughter, that would be a bit too dull.
