Chapter 251 - Wedding Day I: Getting Ready
"Mom....," was the last thing Chen Lihua managed to say before the call ended.
She wanted to ask, \'Mom, you would walk me down the aisle tomorrow, right?\' But too bad that Lady Chen ended the call before her question could come through.
"Why is she in such a hurry? Chen Lihua muttered under her breath while looking at the dark screen of her phone.
Then she remembered that she still had to call Liu Longwei, so she left her room and went into his room to stay for the night.
Immediately she pushed the door open to his room, his scent filled her nostrils. And this brought a smile to her face. She missed him terribly.
She lay on his bed and sniffed in his lingering scent that was left on the bedsheets. And when she felt that she had smelled enough of his scent, her mind became relaxed as she dialed his number.
Liu Longwei, who was currently in the bedroom fiddling with their wedding ring box, immediately picked up his phone when he heard it ring.
Well, it seemed like he hadn\'t opened the ring box yet.
"Hello!" His voice came through to the other end.
From his voice, Chen Lihua could tell that it wasn\'t as heavy as it was back at the clubhouse. So she relaxed a bit.
"Longwei, I\'m sorry for what happened today at the club, I promise that I won\'t dance with strippers again," Chen Lihua said straight to the point, without going in a roundabout manner.
"Hmmm. I\'m not angry with you anymore," Liu Longwei answered with a little smile on his lips.
"Really?" Chen Lihua asked with a smile.
"Really," Liu Longwei assured her as he opened the ring box, only to see two simple lovely wedding rings lying in there.
So with a smile hovering all over his face, he picked up one of the rings, which happened to be his own and fiddled it between his fingers playfully while looking keenly at it.
Chen Lihua smiled before saying, "Thank you. What are you doing now?"
"Looking at our wedding rings," Liu Longwei replied.
"How do you see them?"
"Although they are beautiful and simple-looking, I know that they are quite expensive," Liu Longwei replied.
"Thanks for the compliment," Chen Lihua said.
"Mmmm! You\'re welcome. You should go to bed now, it\'s pretty late. Good night," Liu Longwei said to her.
"Good night," Chen Lihua replied back before laying her head back on the bed with a peaceful smile on her face.
After staring at the rings, he made calls to confirm the security checks for tomorrow, before going to sleep.
As for Chen Lihua, instead of her to sleep immediately, she became lost in thought. And somehow, she started to recall what happened at the clubhouse.
And before you know it, dirty thought and images started going through her mind, like the butts of the strippers she saw and the huge bulge between their legs.
The strippers\' butts were bare, and the only part of their body that was covered were their tools.
Now, Chen Lihua started to wonder what if Longwei was the stripper and clothed in the same manner.
"Ahhh!!!" Chen Lihua screamed and covered her head with the pillow at her dirty thoughts.
Then, she checked the time and saw that it was 10 minutes past 10 (10:10 pm), so she decided that it was time to go to sleep.
The next morning.
Chen Lihua\'s sisters-in-law and friends were really stressed by looking for her.
They couldn\'t find her in her bedroom, so they began to panic, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she came out of Liu Longwei\'s room herself.
So, they immediately pulled her hands while walking. "We have been searching all over the house for you, we thought you had been kidnapped, or maybe you ran away," Liu Dongmei said.
Chen Lihua smiled, "Oh! Am sorry about that. I slept in Longwei\'s room last night."
Liu Dongmei still wanted to tease her with a few words, but this was not the right time for it.
"You have 30 minutes to yourself, so you could maybe do some stretches, yoga, and then freshen up. The hairstylists and makeup artists are close by," Liu Huiling announced from the side.
"Wow! What about the kids?" Chen Lihua asked.
"Don\'t worry, your cousin is bringing them. They are on their way already," Liu Dongmei assured her.
Chen Lihua nodded in understanding before going into her bedroom to do some stretches and simple yoga meditation, before running off to the bathroom to wash up.
Chen Lihua chose some little children from the orphanage that her mother ran, to be part of her flower girls.
As for Chen Lihua\'s friends, they\'ve been searching all over the house for her, Liu Huiling informed them that she had been found. So they breathed a sigh of relief before continuing with their work.
After they had all finished washing up, they had a simple breakfast before the main work began.
As for Chen Lihua, she was too nervous about the wedding to be hungry. So after some chiding by her friends and sisters-in-law, she managed to take some fruits and eat a slice of bread.
After breakfast, work began.
Chen Lihua was sitting in front of a dresser in the room her wedding gown was kept.
Her hair was first worked on for an hour, by the famous hairstylist.
The reason her hair was first started was to give enough time to get things right, and make any tweaks or changes from the trial run, according to her hairstylist.
Chen Lihua\'s makeup took 50 minutes to be perfected, and this time depended on the kind of makeup Chen Lihua chose.
The Bridesmaid\'s hair took 20-30 minutes per person, while their makeup took 30-45 minutes per person.
As money was not a problem here, ten proficient makeup artists and ten proficient hairstylists were employed to make this come through.
They got Chen Lihua, her bridesmaids, and every other people in the house ready for a wedding.
The photographer and the videographer arrived one hour before Chen Lihua\'s hairstyling started. So he was able to capture the latter portion of the makeup and hairstyling.
The best time for this was when Chen Lihua styling was closer to being finished, therefore making more flattering photos. And it also gave the photographer more than enough time to capture the details - bridal dress, bridesmaid\'s dresses, flower girls dresses, shoes jewelry.
But more time was spent on capturing the bridal items because Chen Lihua was the queen of the day.
