Scarlett Jennings felt as if she were suddenly pulled into a mirage realm at this moment.
Just a second ago, her mind was full of secrets behind Jade Bennett’s patterns, and the next moment, she was standing here, just like...
A wedding scene?
Watching Samuel Chalmers walk step by step toward her, then reach out his hand to her.
Scarlett Jennings was momentarily unsure how to react, but then she heard Jade Bennett’s voice gently coming through.
"We do not have the right to hold a wedding for you on behalf of your family, everything today is just a blessing from us to you."
Her voice line was cool, yet at this moment carried a warmth, and after speaking, she gently nudged Scarlett forward,
"Go on."
Scarlett Jennings instinctively stepped forward, naturally taking Samuel Chalmers’ outstretched hand.
Though she still couldn’t see his face clearly, she could see the smile in his always calm and deep black eyes now.
As if her emotions were being stirred, Scarlett Jennings’ brows and eyes also involuntarily curved upwards.
She held his hand, and together they walked the flower-strewn path surrounded by walls of people.
As they stepped onto the red carpet, flower petals, along with bits of spiritual light, were sprinkled over their heads by villagers on both sides.
Just as Jade Bennett said, this was their blessing for her and Samuel Chalmers.
Besides them, Stella Gibson and the others also mixed among the villagers, wildly scattering petals. Compared to Jasmine Hamilton’s subtlety, Stella Gibson’s excitement was even more pronounced than that of the two individuals involved.
As for Greta, he didn’t know why he was throwing petals, but since everyone else was doing it, he followed suit.
Scarlett Jennings felt the joy on the faces of the people on both sides.
Since returning to the Jennings Family, she experienced for the first time what it felt like to shop with family.
She understood what it felt like to be carried by her brother, protected by family.
Her imagination of home was gradually filled by her father and brother.
And Samuel Chalmers was a future she had never imagined.
But now, this future has received its first and most special blessing.
Her lips unwittingly curled into a smile, and Scarlett Jennings tightened her grip on Samuel Chalmers’ hand; at this moment, she only wanted to hold on tightly to him.
After walking the flower path, they were surrounded by villagers again and guided to the flower car at the entrance.
This was obviously also specially arranged.
The village chief said,
"In ancient times, a bride’s sedan chair would circle the city once, but our village doesn’t have the conditions, so let’s use this flower car instead and circle the village once."
Stella Gibson, priding herself as "family from the bride’s side," stayed at the front of the team and couldn’t help but ask when she saw the flower car,
"There’s only a car, no horses. Does it need to be pulled manually?"
The village chief smiled and said, "Of course, there are horses."
As he spoke, he suddenly pulled out two ceramic horses from nowhere, one big and one small. With a wave, spiritual light flashed, and the two ceramic horses landed, transforming into tall ceramic horses.
Although they still looked like ceramic horses, they seemed alive, and started pulling the carriage forward with a clip-clop sound.
Stella Gibson’s eyes immediately sparkled, exclaiming the village chief’s ingenuity.
The villagers laughed and chased after the flower car. Stella Gibson also wanted to follow, but Jasmine Hamilton saw her immersed in the moment and couldn’t help but ask her concern,
"If Scarlett and Mr. Samuel married secretly without informing their family, wouldn’t it not count if the elders find out?"
Stella Gibson looked at her with a puzzled expression,
"Why are you worried about that? It’s not supposed to count."
Jasmine Hamilton: ???
Seeing her stunned expression, Stella Gibson couldn’t help but laugh,
"You didn’t think this was a real wedding, did you?
It’s just like one of those special cultural experience projects in tourist villages, just about feeling the process."
Jasmine Hamilton: ...
So that was the truth behind her enjoying the day so much?
It was just a formality?
Scarlett Jennings was initially stunned upon hearing this, but almost instantly, she recalled the "answer" he mentioned.
He said, the content was never the focus; the focus was... being together.
Her heart felt wrapped in something, warmly reassuring.
Looking at the person before her, for the first time, Scarlett Jennings took the initiative to speak to him,
"Samuel Chalmers, I want to see you."
Aside from those two times, his golden light was always so dazzling.
In the past, even if she couldn’t see him clearly, she didn’t really care.
Because even if she couldn’t see clearly, she could still feel his emotions.
But today, at this moment, she wanted to see him.
The him he is now.
Samuel Chalmers paused slightly, looking at her, his black eyes deepening,
"Aren’t you looking?"
Scarlett Jennings shook her head,
"Your golden light is always so dazzling; I have to try very hard to see you clearly."
Listening to her words, Samuel Chalmers’ eyes grew deeper, and after a moment, he seemed to understand.
So in the next second, without warning, he leaned in toward her.
So close, his golden light enveloped her as well.
Their breathing touched, a world apart in mere inches.
Gazing at the suddenly enlarged clear face before her, Scarlett Jennings’ heartbeat missed a beat.
After a long moment, she only heard his magnetic low voice, asking her,
"Like this, can you see clearly?"
