Xie Sen sat down on the sofa. His heart was beating madly. His hands were clenched into fists where they rested on his knees. His eyes stared straight at the door.
Bai Jiao walked to the door, smiled at him reassuringly, and opened the door.
Shouts of joy burst into the room. Maine stood at the front, followed by Long Teng, Huo Feng, Mu Lin and Gu Luo, like the best man’s group.
All of Xie Sen’s attention was drawn to Maine, who was wearing the same white suit as him. The suit was perfectly cut, and showed off Maine’s tall figure to the fullest, while inside the suit was a high-collared jacquard shirt with a dark pattern that was elegant and noble.
Xie Sen was still thinking about whether to get up to greet him, but Maine was already striding to stand before him. He got down on one knee. Xie Sen clearly saw the smile in Maine’s eyes.
“Nervous?” Maine took his hand, and kissed the back of it. “Leave everything to me. Don’t worry.”
Maine got up after the kiss, bent down, picked him up and walked out.
He grabbed Maine’s shoulders. “Can’t I walk by myself?”Mu Lin laughed at the door. “When a male picks up the female, if he lets his feet touch the ground, he’ll be questioned about his ability.”
Maine nodded, “He’s right.”
Xie Sen suddenly realized that this ritual had some things in common with modern marriage, ah! And his role…was the bride! He silently gritted his teeth, and resisted the urge to jump.
Because he was being held by Maine, he could clearly feel Maine’s strong muscles. He thought about it. Even if he and Maine exchanged roles, and he came to meet Maine, he couldn’t walk out with Maine in his arms.
When he thought about it, the trace of embarrassment disappeared. Anyway, it was about him and Maine getting married no matter what his status was. Besides, in the eyes of the rest of the world, that’s what was normal. He was a female now!
“Tired?” Maine put him in the back of the shuttle, then sat down next to him and touched his face.
Xie Sen looked over, and took his hand. “No.”
Long Teng was in the driver’s seat, and Bai Jiao was in the front passenger. Long Teng turned around and laughed. “Start!” The shuttle whooshed out.
The shuttle traveled fast. It circled the main city then headed straight home.
When the shuttle was about to land, Xie Sen looked out the window excitedly. He wanted to see how the venue was set up in advance. Maine cupped his chin, and pulled a little. He looked at Maine in response. “What’s wrong?”
Maine didn’t say anything. Instead his hand slid to the back of his neck, and he lowered his head to kiss him. By the time the kiss was done, the shuttle had smoothly landed.
Xie Sen gasped and laughed. “You still want to keep it a secret?”
Maine’s fingers wiped at his lips to remove the ambiguous glow. “I’ll show you.” He took the lead in getting off the shuttle, and turned back towards Xie Sen.
Xie Sen took his hand and jumped off the shuttle. He was greeted by a large red carpet that looked especially festive. He glanced up and was stunned in place.
On both sides of the carpet stood the contract beasts. They stood two by two, opposite each other and looked especially formal. All the contract beasts had red silk hung around their necks, very much like ancient time’s wedding party dress. Pink bits were floating in the air.
