Epilogue: (2) - Mr. and Mrs. Song

When Qian Meigui was inside, the clouds blocked the sun.

But when she entered the yard, the clouds parted, and the sun shone at it's highest peak, the sky deepening into a blanket of blue. A halo of light formed around her. She was speaking to his father when she glanced up at him; their eyes met.

Song Sheng couldn't contain his emotions; it was the fact that he once tried to escape from this possibility because he was afraid. And now, she was walking towards him, binding them together for eternity. Qian Meigui stepped onto the platform when she let go of Song Rui, taking his. The veil concealed her, but he could see her through the beautiful threads of her gown.

When she settled in front of him, Song Sheng stepped closer to lift the veil from her face, over her crown of flowers, revealing her startling beauty. Her long brown wavy hair cascaded past her shoulders; her lips painted rouge; her cheeks blushed.
