Under the light produced by the fireflies, several figures moved quickly among the crowd and took seats at one of the front most tables.
Anne and Leon sat at the same table as the members of the Shi family and spent quite a while greeting each other. As for the bridesmaids and the groomsmen, they sat at one of the front most tables on the other side.
There was an elevated aisle between Michelle's and Leon's tables, and it was surrounded with floral arrangements of each side. Furthermore, the venue was dimly lit, so it was difficult for the two of them to see each other.
Ever since their first meeting yesterday, they had exchanged less than three sentences in total.
Leon was a little unhappy about this. For some reason, he always felt like Michelle was deliberately avoiding him.
As for Michelle, she was very glad that they weren't seated at the same side and that there was a partition between them. Otherwise, she really didn't know how she could avoid his scorching gaze.
However, she didn't know that Leon wasn't the only one thinking about her.
Michelle was sitting at the table in front of Tim's, and she even passed by him when she walked to her table just now. She was wearing a pink strapless dress, and the color was really suitable for a young girl like her. When she passed by, he could even smell the faint baby fragrance coming from her.
Whether it was her looks or her fragrance, both were fresh and tempting.
Tim sat up straightly, trying to attract the girl's attention. Nevertheless, she seemed to not notice him and swept past him without any pause.
This made him a little upset.
Victor reached out and patted Tim's arm. "Mr. Shen! Mr. Shen! The rich and the educated are really good at showing off! They even put the stars in the sky on their body!"
Tim was about to lose his temper, but upon hearing what Victor said, he turned his head, just in time to see the bride show up at the end of the aisle. The gems on her wedding dress glittered in the dimly-lit venue, just like stars flickering in the night sky. It was indeed a sight to behold.
Sure enough, John really did know how to show off.
Victor's voice was especially loud in the quiet venue, snapping the guests, who were awestruck over the sky full of fireflies, out of their dazed state.
Nevertheless, the guests immediately went into a trance again.
Valerie couldn't help but murmur, "Are those stars? How can they move? They're so beautiful!"
"It's the Milky Way, right? They must want to depict the Starry River hanging in the sky on the bride's dress!" said May, who was also stunned by what she saw.
Someone among the crowd said aloud, "Who designed the wedding dress? It looks so beautiful on the bride."
"The groom and the bride make each other look more beautiful!"
The scene in front of them was indescribably breathtaking.
At this moment, they finally understood why John chose to hold the wedding at twilight.
Only when the sky was dark could the specialty of the fireflies and the moving stars be seen.
Nina was wearing the white Starry River specially designed for her. It was a nipped-in waist dress, which perfectly accentuated her slender waist, her snow-white skin, and the small black mole on her collarbone.
The dazzling diamond necklace on her fair, slender neck made her look noble. From time to time, the pearl earrings on her ears would also sway along with the night wind, further adding an ethereal charm to her noble looks.
Her smile was just like the bright moon in the sky, and her soft, red lips contrasted sharply with her white teeth.
The delicate makeup she put on made her originally delicate face look even more stunning. Her amber eyes seemed to sparkle as she gazed at John.
Right now, she felt like she could easily see into his heart.
Her smooth forehead was exposed as her black hair had been pulled into a bun. She put a rose, which was John's favorite flower, on her bun as an accessory.
She looked just like a rose fairy that finally reached his side after a long journey.
The guests subconsciously held their breaths for fear of disturbing such a beautiful scene. A kind of sacred silence descended on the venue. It was so quiet that if there was a needle drop, everyone would definitely be able to hear it.
