Chapter 693 Wedding bells (2)

Zhou Yichen looked back and his face brightened. "Ah the twins! Come, come! We are just playing some card games."

On the other side, Jin was playing the cats, who held no interest in joining their card game.

Feeling extremely aggrieved, Jian stomped his way ahead and smacked Jun on his head.

"Hey!" Jun glared at him.

Liu Jun, the groom, looked every bit the dashing prince from a fairytale. He sat tall and confident in his tailored black tuxedo. The jacket was perfectly fitted, accentuating his broad shoulders, and a sleek black bowtie adorned his crisp white dress shirt. His jet-black hair was impeccably styled, and a single white rose graced his lapel, adding a touch of elegance. His brother, Jian, looked no less than a charming prince himself.

"How is it that you are all chummy here with Uncle Zhou while Uncle Liang threatens to shoot bullets at me!?" He sobbed. "What is this injustice!"

"It\'s your reputation that you have built over the years that people feel like beating you," he sneered.

"Y-You…! What bad reputation! I have the most clean image in the entire Liu family!"

Jin choked and burst into laughter, rolling down on the couch. "The twins…with a clean image…? Ahahahaha!"

Nian jumped at him as the cats fled and ruffled his hair. "You dare laugh at your elder brothers! Punishment time~"

"Don\'t ruin my hair style!" Jin barked.

Zhou Yichen joined in their laughter. "Don\'t worry, kid~ If you are talking about the last minute \'father-talk\' with the groom, then I have done that too. If he makes my Ai-chan cry, then he will become my perfect bait to scam people for my odd jobs~ It only makes sense because he would have broken his promise of keeping my daughter happy. I would bestow the tag of a scammer and liar upon Liu Jun and drag him to all my jobs! Hahaha!"

"..."

What kind of punishment is that?

"Come, sit down! Join us in our game!" He sparkled.

Jian slowly sat down while Zhou Yichen dealt with the cards. Nian, who was basking in the flurry warmth of the cats, asked, "Yo, we thought you are still getting ready. First it will be Jian and Leina\'s turn and then yours."

Jun started to sweat. "I don\'t know. For some reason, I couldn\'t sit still."

"Is it the wedding jitters? Hahaha! You look so cute!"

"Shut up! You will also feel that on your wedding day with Xing Bi!"

Zhou Yichen chuckled. "To calm his nerves, I thought why not play some games? I asked Mr. Liu too, but he wanted to take care of other wedding preparations."

Jian started to wipe his forehead too. "Now that you say that, I feel the heat too, especially double than you because I can imagine Uncle Liang ready to shoot bullets at me when he brings Leina…"

Just then, Nuo hopped in the room and squished her face against Jian with a sheepish grin. "Sister-in-law Leina is all ready, Bro~ Aish, she looks so beautiful. I am afraid you will faint on the spot."

"Did you click a picture of her?" Jian asked with a hyperactive edge to his voice. "Show me! Show me!"

"No picture! You will only see her when she walks down the aisle. Till then, no spoiling surprises," she whistled.

"You are mean, little sister!"

"And Ai! Ai! How is she?" Jun asked with a hint of tension. "She is not too tired, right?"

Nuo laughed. "She is the one hopping around more than anybody else."

Jun\'s gaze darkened.

What is she doing jumping around when she is pregnant?

"Let me talk to her."

"Hey, hey! No scolding my sister-in-law!" Nuo stood straight, glaring at him. "She is doing perfectly alright. We are all there to take care of her, especially Mom and Aunt Nuying. So, chill."

Zhou Yichen waved his hand. "She is fine, Jun-cute. And trust me, if you go there looking to scold Ai-chan, you will be burnt to a crisp by everybody\'s wrath."

Jun thought about it and could very well imagine the consequences. He released a sigh. "Ai has been working non-stop for this day. I don\'t want her to exhaust herself."

"My Ai-chan is very strong and so is my grandchild~"

Nuo said, "Anyway, I came to say that it\'s wedding time for you, Bro Jian!"

Jian stood up as if he was electrocuted and looked with a robotic expression. "I-I am r-ready too!"

"Awww, are you feeling the jitters? So cute!"

"Shut up."

Nuo looked back at the door and called out. "Daaaaad…"

"No, no!" Jian quickly pulled her back and covered her mouth. Letting out a nervous chuckle, he patted her head. "I was just kidding, little sister. How in the world would I even think of saying shut up to you? So you see, Uncle Liang is already pointing a gun at my back. Please d-don\'t add Dad in the list too," he mercifully pleaded.

"Hmph. Fine, I forgive you."

Zhou Yichen packed the cards. "Let\'s go. It\'s time. After Jian, Jun-cute\'s time will soon come too~"

Jun felt his throat go dry and quickly gulped a glass of water. Jian started to robotically take his steps out when Jin called out. "Wait."

They stopped and turned. Zhou Yichen looked back and forth and figured he wanted a moment of privacy. "I will go ahead~"

"What\'s up, Jin?" Nian cheerfully asked.

Jin cleared his throat and walked towards them. He first readjusted the rose on Jian\'s jacket and then on Jun\'s. He stared at Jian and remembered the past life where he and Leina had finally gotten together. It was a wedding he didn\'t get to witness, neither Jun\'s or Nuo\'s. But now here he was, his heart overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

"No-Nothing…the rose was just tilted. Now you are ready. Let\'s go."

The four siblings stared back at him and figured the emotions behind his gaze. A second later, tears welled in their eyes and they pulled Jin into a big hug.

Jian cried. "I knew it! Jin loves me the most!"

"Yes he only feigns that he hates us but he actually loves us a lot!" Nian sniffled.

Nuo poked his cheek as she cried. "Why is my younger brother so cute?"

Jun patted his head, not bothering to hide his tears. "We have missed out on a lot of things, Jin and a lot of happy memories that should have been there. But not this time."

Jin quickly said, a lump forming in his throat. "I-I wasn\'t thinking of the past…"

"You sure did!" They chimed at once.

Jian grinned and pinched his cheeks. "We will witness everybody\'s happiness, Jin. Mine, Nian\'s, Jun\'s, Nuo\'s and yours. Nobody would be spared from laughter and joy! So let\'s embrace the future we wanted all this time."
