Wedding

This day was destined to be a busy and meaningful day. For Lu Yan, it was the most important day in his life, and of course, for Su Mo as well.

As early as when the wedding preparations began, Lu Yan generously announced the date and process, and also exclusively authorized a TV station to broadcast it live.

In today’s entertainment era, the marriage and love of celebrities are one of the focuses of people’s attention. It is basically impossible to hide it. Many celebrities are also happy to make their marriage public to increase topics and exposure. But Lu Yan’s situation was different after all. Society had not yet opened up to the point of treating homosexuality and heterosexuality equally, not to mention that his wedding would cause a bigger stir than any other celebrity’s wedding in the past. Of course, this was also because more people paid attention to this wedding. Same-sex weddings, big stars, business tycoons, any one of these factors could become the focus, let alone the combination of the three.

In a subsequent program, someone asked Lu Yan why he wanted to make such a big splash for a wedding, and whether it was hype. Lu Yan answered very sincerely, “If you think this is hype, I have no objection. In the eyes of many people, homosexuality is not accepted, not only because it is a minority, but also because many people equate homosexuality with heterosexuality. I dare not say that we want to do something for this group, I just want everyone to know that homosexuals also have true love, and the feeling of wanting to find someone to spend the rest of their lives with is the same as most heterosexuals. True love should not distinguish between homosexuality and heterosexuality. Although love is a matter between two people, as public figures, we don’t mind sharing our happiness with everyone, and we also welcome everyone to bear witness to us that we will be together for a lifetime!”

The discussion about the upcoming same-sex wedding was also very lively on the Internet, and it had been at the top of the hot topics on Weibo for a long time. Except for a small number of people who expressed disdain for such hype and waited to see if they would be contradicted by their own words, most netizens were supportive and blessed. For a while, Lu Yan and related people’s Weibo were forwarded and commented on with blessings one after another. It was a pity that Director Su didn’t have a Weibo account, so netizens had one less person to tag, but as a family member, Second Young Master Su did not escape this fate, which made Second Young Master Su both relieved and upset.

A few days before the wedding date, fans even started a countdown on Weibo and forums.

In the eyes of the public, this day had finally arrived.

There were many things to prepare, so Lu Yan got up early in the morning, and the makeup artists, photographers, costume designers and other staff were also in place early.

Every detail of the wedding was arranged by Lu Yan himself.

A few years ago, Lu Yan had a private wedding night with Su Mo on a whim, which left a deep impression on him. From that time on, he hoped that they would have a chance to have a real Chinese wedding. So it could be said that Lu Yan had planned this day for a long time.

However, the real Chinese wedding process is too complicated, and they were two men after all, and it was different from the marriage in ancient times, so all the processes were kept simple.

Chen Yue and others, who had agreed to be best man for Lu Yan at the wedding, even went to Lu Yan’s small villa one night in advance to rent a bed and hold a small farewell bachelor party. If it were someone else, they would have been drunk all night. But on the one hand, Lu Yan himself had a good alcohol tolerance, and on the other hand, thinking about who would get married tomorrow, these young men dare not go too far, just for the sake of courtesy.

As for Su Mo, he had already returned to the Su family’s old house three days ago. In some places, the tradition is that the newlyweds should not see each other for three days before their wedding. Although this was not a traditional wedding in the strict sense, it was still a small detail that could be followed as a hobby.

In addition to Chen Yue and others, Lu Yan also invited his best friends in the circle, Gu Yang and Shan Chuyu, to serve as best men and be responsible for going with him to pick up the bride.

The two big stars’ appearances were different, and they brought their own costumes, props and makeup artists, which saved Lu Yan a lot of trouble.

For the two grooms who had both the right people and the right money, it was not a problem to make the wedding details as good as possible. So as early as when the wedding was decided, they had already started to order costumes and props, striving to make every guest who participated in the wedding fit in with the atmosphere. This was a huge project, and those who didn’t know would think it was a costume movie crew that was so generous.

The TV station’s cameramen were already in place, and when Lu Yan walked into the camera in a bright red dress, everyone present and those watching in front of the TV gasped. The dress had a cross-collared and straight-hemmed lining, and a cloak on the outside. The fabric was high-quality satin, with bright red as the main color. Only the waistband and hem were made of black fabric with exquisite embroidery.

Men in ancient costumes are common in movies and TV shows, and many of them are handsome. But perhaps because of the atmosphere and aura, Lu Yan at this moment looked particularly handsome and graceful. He attracted everyone’s attention as soon as he appeared on the stage. Many female fans even held their chests and took a few breaths, saying that he was too handsome.

What was even more irresistible was that after Lu Yan came a group of handsome men in ancient costumes, with all kinds of tastes. Standing together, they were extremely pleasing to the eyes.

There was already a line of cars waiting at the entrance of the community. However, if the audience thought that such an old-fashioned wedding with such modern cars would spoil the view, it was too early to say so.

The convoy’s target was the Su family’s old residence on the outskirts of the city. There were similar high-end manor-style residences within a few miles, all of which were century-old family residences.

After the convoy left the city, at the entrance to the avenue leading to the Su family’s old house, there were already people waiting with more than a dozen horses. This was the highlight of today’s wedding.

Except for a few horses brought by the young masters present, most of the dozen horses were donated by He Ming. His stables were full of tall and beautiful horses. Su Mo was his best friend, and Lu Yan was his trusted friend. How could He Ming, who always valued loyalty over profit, not express his appreciation for the wedding of these two people?

The leading horse was the tallest and most handsome among them, with a big red flower tied on its forehead, which made it look particularly festive and funny.

After getting out of the car, Lu Yan and his party mounted their horses.

Lu Yan was an excellent horseman, and the groomsmen following him were either young men who were used to riding horses or big stars who had filmed countless movies, so they were naturally no less capable.

A dozen horses pulling together was a big sight. Not to mention in a big city like this, even on a prairie full of horses, it was rare to see so many horses at once. It is conceivable that such a team of horses would attract a lot of onlookers. Fortunately, the wedding planning team had already made preparations and the security work was first-class. Although there were a lot of onlookers, it did not cause any unmanageable situation.

They arrived at the Su family’s old house at just the right time.

The Su family’s old house had been decorated under the direction of Aunt Fang a month ago, and now it was decorated in an ancient style with lights and decorations everywhere. The most obvious thing was that the whole old house was almost drowned in red. If Lu Yan hadn’t seen Su Jue and Li Ran waiting at the door from afar, he would have thought he had found the wrong place.

Su Jue and Li Ran also wore ancient costumes to suit the occasion. In fact, all the servants in the Su family’s old house and the guests who had arrived early were dressed in ancient costumes. The large carved wooden table in the courtyard was also particularly charming.

If they followed the real ancient wedding process, there were still a lot of things to do here, but modern people pay attention to efficiency. In addition, the groom was coming to pick up today, not the bride, so all the things like jumping over the fire basin and getting on the sedan chair door could be saved. However, Su Jue still asked Lu Yan to shoot arrows, which was meant to dispel evil spirits and everything would go smoothly from now on. However, he did not shoot at the sedan chair door, but at the main door.

Lu Yan smiled, pulled the bow to its full length, and shot three arrows in succession. Each arrow hit the bull’s eye, and there was immediate cheering from those around him.

In fact, the distance was not far, and the bow was specially made for tourists to play with with a standard star, so it was not difficult. At such a critical and joyous moment, Su Jue naturally did not dare to embarrass the groom, let alone make him look bad.

After the target was removed, the gate opened. Su Mo, who was wearing the same bright red suit as Lu Yan, was already waiting there.

He was not a bride, so he did not need to cover his head. Su Mo’s bright and deep eyes with infinite tenderness followed the slowly opening door and steadily fell on the man riding on the horse with high spirits. Lu Yan’s eyes were also firmly locked on the other person without any hesitation.

The photographer, who was good at capturing details, did not miss this eye contact shot.

Lu Yan was still riding on the horse, leaning forward slightly, smiling and extending a hand to Su Mo.

Su Mo smiled back and walked over slowly, his steps light and firm.

As if they had traveled through time for a thousand years just to wait for this moment, Lu Yan stretched out his hand firmly without a single tremor, and Su Mo’s pace was not fast, but he kept moving forward. At this moment, they only had each other in their eyes, and everything around them was just a background to them.

When Su Mo walked to the horse, Lu Yan grabbed his raised hand, bent down, and supported his waist with his other hand. Su Mo tapped the stirrup with his toes, and was half-carried and pulled onto the horse by Lu Yan. Su Mo turned his left foot forward and sat steadily on the horse, with his back against Lu Yan.

The two of them coordinated perfectly, and their movements were graceful and beautiful, as if they had rehearsed it dozens of times. There was applause and whistles all around.

Su Mo tilted his head slightly and smiled back at Lu Yan. Lu Yan couldn’t hide the warmth in his eyes. He put his arms around Su Mo and held the reins in front of him, which was equivalent to holding Su Mo in his arms.

Fortunately, the horse was tall, so two people could ride on it without feeling crowded, and there was still room to move around.

Lu Yan shook the reins, took a step forward, and the horse started running obediently, with a dozen horses following closely behind.

According to the plan, they had to ride around this road and then come back. The distance was not particularly short. In addition, although it was already in the suburbs, it was not a horse farm after all. They could not let the horses run freely and had to control the speed. Therefore, it was estimated that it would take about an hour to complete the race.

The photographers sat in the car and filmed at the same speed as the horse, so there was no problem.

Along the way, well-informed netizens and fans followed along the way. As the live broadcast progressed, more and more cars joined in. For a while, the road behind the horse team almost became a private car exhibition. Although the road was not narrow, it could not withstand so many cars. Soon, security personnel drove forward to stop the car. The onlookers who were blocked could only sigh at the horses.

At the same time, discussions about the wedding on Weibo and forums were in full swing. From the style and fabric of the clothing to the details of the workmanship, from the process arrangement to the stunning appearance of the horse team, to the affectionate look between Lu and Su at the door, and the beauty and romance of the two riding together along the way. Some netizens even claimed that if their husbands didn’t ride horses to pick them up in the future, they would definitely not marry, and many people agreed. Of course, there was another direction of discussion among fans, that is, was Male God Lu getting married or marrying? If it was said it was a marriage, it was obvious that Male God Lu went to pick up the bride; but if it was said it was a marriage, the wedding was to be held in the old house of the Su family, and the new house had been decorated there. Then someone summarized and jokingly said that it was obvious that Male God Lu was on his way to the door, and at once there were countless likes.

An hour later, the cavalry returned to the Su family’s old house. The next highlight was the wedding ceremony.

Although keeping everything simple was not that particular, it still had to be there.

Amid the deafening sound of firecrackers, the newlyweds crossed the courtyard and walked into the hall that was decorated as a wedding hall. The dragon and phoenix candles were already set out. The master of ceremonies was Shu Hang, the top host in the world. Shu Hang’s slightly frail figure wrapped in a wide ancient costume robe really had an indescribable sense of humor. Aunt Fang was even more smiling in her festive outfit.

The steps of the wedding ceremony reached the key point in Shu Hang’s “First Bow to Heaven and Earth”. Because Su Mo’s parents and Lu Yan’s mother had passed away, they asked for their parents’ tablets when they “worshiped their parents”. As for the still-living person surnamed Ke, Lu Yan had never even thought of him, so he would naturally not invite him to attend, let alone sit on the seat of the parents. Later, Chen Yue and others found out that the old man of the Ke family “accidentally” broke a set of antiques worth millions on the day of Lu Yan’s wedding.

With Shu Hang’s words “husband and wife bow to each other”, the two stood face to face, their eyes met, and infinite tenderness lingered. The two looked into each other’s eyes and bowed deeply. Of course, this light bow could not satisfy the guests’ spectator psychology, so amid the booing, the two did the popular greeting, until they heard a heavy “bang”, and everyone was satisfied.

According to the ancient process, after the greetings, the bride and groom would be escorted to the bridal chamber. However, how could modern guests be dismissed so easily? Therefore, wedding planners had already prepared the process of tying the knot and drinking the same cup together.

The “Knot of Heart” is when two people cut a section of their hair and put them together as a token of love. Both of them were wearing long hair caps, so it was not easy to cut their hair on the spot, but they still did it seriously. When the two put their hair into the small cloth bag prepared in advance, the sense of ceremony that came naturally made them extremely solemn.

When drinking from the wedding cup, the guests started to cheer again, saying that drinking like this was too monotonous and they needed to add some variety to make it more exciting.

Lu Yan looked around, and his smiling eyes made everyone shut up.

Just when everyone thought there was no hope, Lu Yan suddenly took the wine glass from Su Mo’s hand, poured both glasses of wine into his mouth, then took a step forward, put one hand around Su Mo’s waist, held his head with the other, leaned over and fed the wine into his mouth. Su Mo reacted quickly, but he didn’t get the rhythm right at the beginning, and the wine was fed too quickly, so before he could swallow it, it flowed down the corners of his mouth, quickly soaking a small area of ​​his collar, which made him look particularly charming.

After a moment of collective shock, the guests burst into applause and laughter.

The camera faithfully recorded this moment.

After drinking the wedding wine in a special posture, the two smiled at each other.

In full view of everyone and under the gaze of the camera, the two people’s hands were tightly clasped together under their wide sleeves.

In this life, is there anything happier than having someone who shares your thoughts and will stay with you no matter life or death, honor or disgrace?

Hold your hand and grow old with you!
