Everyone apart from Yang Li and Bing Xue made their way to the main hall.

After their group left, Xue asked him, "Brother Li why are we not going with them?"

Yang Li said, "There are still 10 minutes left."

"Also, I'm not feeling well."

Xue frowned and touched his forehead, "What happened, brother Li? You don't have a temperature. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

Li signaled her to come closer. As she moved closer to him, she suddenly felt a strong pull on her waist. She was now inches away from his face. She could feel his cool breath on her face which made her shiver despite the warmth in the room.

Yang Li moved forward and his lips came crashing on hers. Xue was frozen by his actions. By the time she realized what was going on, Yang Li had already started sucking her lower lip. She gave a light moan.

This gave Li a chance to further deepen the kiss. His tongue found a way through her defenses and started playing with her tongue.

Xue seemed to be lost in pleasure when Yang Li suddenly broke the kiss. He winked at her and said innocently, "I was feeling uncomfortable on my lips. Now it's better. So, we should go inside or we will be late."

Xue glared at him and said, "Mr. Li what's the rush. Now that you have started this game, you need to take full responsibility and complete it before you go anywhere." With that, she pulled him towards herself and blocked his lips with hers.

Yang Li was surprised by her aggression but he happily obliged her. The couple was making out without any care about their surroundings.

Although they garnered attention from a few people they were mostly ignored as they did not have any significant origins.

============================================

The Main Event Hall-

All the guests had been seated. The Yang family and the Tang family had also arrived. The groom and the bride were sitting on the main platform.

The groom, Yang Tian wore a silver suit with silver black boots. His reddish-brown hair was neatly combed. He looked like a prince of a country. He stood tall and his posture exuded confidence and arrogance.

The bride, Tang Xue stood by his side in a blue qipao with traditional purple sandals. Her hair was tied up in a waterfall braid. She looked beautiful and mesmerizing.

They truly justified the title of 'immortal couple' given to them by the tabloids. The couple was engaged in conversation with each other and looked blissful. They were surrounded by other members of the Tang and Yang family.

Yang Mei, Yang Ling, Yan Ya, and the Song Siblings sat at the same table, which was near the door of the main event hall.

Yang Ling said, "Sister Mei, where are Brother Li and sis-in-law? Are they still outside?"

Mei winked at her and said, "They have just started dating. They must be enjoying themselves somewhere."

Song Jue snickered on hearing Mei. She added, "Those two lovebirds might be making out somewhere."

"What making out??? STOP!! talking nonsense Jue'er."

A girl's voice was heard by the group. The group looked in the direction of the voice. They found the couple sauntering towards them.

Jue looked at her and said, "Of course, I'm talking about the two of you. Your lipstick is still visible on your boyfriend's face….hehehee."

"Can't you wait till you get back??"

Li took a seat beside Mei and Xue sat beside him. He looked indifferent as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

This was his natural disposition. He would only soften up in front of his mother and sister. Bing Xue was the only other person he had opened up to. Since he had become interested in her he had become more amiable and more approachable.

"No, we can't," replied Bing Xue shamelessly.

Song Jue shook her head helplessly. Her friend had always kept a distance from people, especially the opposite gender. Men from all kinds of distinguished backgrounds had tried to court her in the past but to no avail. She had always kept her distance. However, she had become bewitched by Yang Li. Although they had not been seeing each other for long, she looked like a teenage girl in love. She felt happy for Xue.

Xue had always had a tough life and she wanted her to be happy. Although Yang Li was cold and mysterious, he was very good to Xue. She was not aware of his real occupation and was a little apprehensive about him but she was confident that he would never hurt her friend.

Many foreign dignitaries had arrived.

Soon an announcement was made that the guests should take their seats as the ceremony was about to begin.

Yang Tian and Tang Xue were facing each other on the stage. They exchanged rings and there was a huge applause from the crowd. A beautiful romantic song was played in the background as the couple danced to it.

Many women were jealous of Tang Xue and wished to be in her place. Similarly, many men felt upset as their goddess was in the arms of another man.

The atmosphere became warm and romantic as more couples joined the stage and danced to the music.

Song Jue looked at Xue and said, "So are you not going to the stage to dance??"

Xue looked at her and said, "Firstly, I am not interested. Secondly, I don't know how to dance."

Xue then looked at Li and asked, "Do you know how to dance?"

Li shook his head and said, "No, never danced before."

Jue scoffed at the couple and then turned to her brother and said, "Brother Liu, you should go and ask a girl to dance with you. Maybe you will finally get a girlfriend."

"If you continue like this, you will never get married."

Hearing her mocking words Song Liu scowled at her, while Song Jiu started sniggering.

When she saw her second bother laughing at Song Liu she turned to him and said, "Brother Jiu, why are you laughing? You are even worse than brother Liu."

On hearing her sister's vicious jab, Song Jiu turned red on being called out in public and stopped sniggering.

Mei, Yang Ling, and Yan Ya were busy gossiping and paid no attention to others at the table.

Yan Ya was very happy talking to her new siblings. She liked them immediately, especially Yang Mei. She didn't have a close relationship with other cousins in the Yang family. Yang Ling was the only one who talked to her. However, Ling had been abroad for many years.

After her father's death, her mother had to rely on herself to take care of the family. Her mother was a kind-hearted and gentle person.

The Yang family also extended their support to the mother-daughter duo. But because of this support they had to obey the rules set by the Yangs. Her elders had certain expectations from her mother and herself. She had to give up and compromise on many things in order to please them. So apart from her mother and Yang Ling, she was not very fond of the Yangs.

However, she found her cousins were different. They were nothing like the people in the Yang family.

The atmosphere was warm and cozy as the couples continued to dance on the stage. Some couples left after a few dances. They were replaced by others. Various kinds of cuisines were being served at the banquet.

After 15 minutes, a group of three men and two women entered the Main Hall. They were foreigners. They were enveloped in an aura of nobility.

Yang Li looked at them and a flash of glint passed through his eyes.

He recognized them.

Thereafter, he turned around and continued his conversation with Xue'er.

When Yang Ling saw them, she immediately stood up. She got up and walked toward the group. They were obviously friends. She hugged the two girls and then took them to meet the newly engaged couple.

The Song siblings were also watching the group with interest.

Similarly, the group caught the attention of other people in the Hall including Yang Mei and Yan Ya. Only Yang Li and Xue were oblivious to their surroundings.

The group continued to converse with the newly engaged couple and other members of the Yang and Tang families.

After half an hour, Yang Ling came back to their table with two people- a man and a woman.
