The Art of Pursuing: The Unyielding Ex-wife

Chapter 718: Groom, it’s time to call someone

A group of people took the elevator to the fifteenth floor and walked to Munni’s house door. Xu Yisen held a bouquet in one hand and knocked on the door with the other.No one inside opened the door for him, but a teasing voice came through the intercom, asking knowingly, "Who is it?"

"I am the groom here to fetch the bride."

The laughter in the conversation grew deeper, and there were sounds of others giggling around the intercom. The person then said, "Old tradition, red envelopes must be slipped through the crack of the door first."

Xu Yisen took a step back, and the groomsman, Liang Jiuchen, stepped forward and slipped twenty red envelopes through the door crack in succession.

The people behind the door shared the envelopes equally, and someone opened one to peek at the amount inside, surprised to find that it contained US Dollars.

After handing out the red envelopes, Liang Jiuchen returned to stand behind Xu Yisen. Xu Yisen stepped forward with a smile towards the camera, "Could you please open the door for me?"

The people behind the door were certainly satisfied with his generous gesture and didn’t make things difficult for Xu Yisen anymore, almost without thinking, they replied, "Sure."

With that said, the door was opened, revealing Yu Qingyuan’s girlfriend standing behind it.

She smiled brightly and congratulated Xu Yisen, "Congratulations on finally winning the beauty."

"Thank you," Xu Yisen responded as he handed her another red envelope before leading the bridal party inside.

Quite a few friends were gathered in the living room, and as the host, Yuan Chengmo sat upright on the sofa.

The traditional custom when the groom fetches the bride involves first knocking on the first door, which is the house door. Once inside, one needs to bow in the living room to the father-in-law and mother-in-law and call them Dad and Mom.

During Xu Yisen and Munni’s first wedding, they naturally followed the tradition and bowed to Mr. Qin in the living room, calling him Dad, with Munni’s face full of smiles and joy as she then handed Xu Yisen a renaming red envelope.

However, this time, the host was not Munni’s parents but her senior, and Xu Yisen hesitated about whether to skip this step or how to proceed.

In the brief two seconds of hesitation, someone in the living room laughed and urged, "Groom, time to greet people."

Xu Yisen realized that this step couldn’t be avoided now.

But... what should he call Yuan Chengmo?

Standing only fifteen centimeters away from Yuan Chengmo, Xu Yisen maintained a warm smile without showing any sign of internal struggle.

He calmly nodded slightly to greet Yuan Chengmo sitting on the sofa and finally parted his lips respectfully to say, "Hello, Senior."

In fact, Xu Yisen was even a year older than Yuan Chengmo, and calling him Senior was solely because Munni always referred to Yuan Chengmo as Senior, so Xu Yisen followed suit.

Heavens know, how awkward that Senior sounded in his own ears.

In fact, that term Senior also sounded quite awkward in Yuan Chengmo’s ears. He suppressed the amusement in his heart and nodded seriously, "Mm, Yisen, this is your renaming red envelope."

Saying that, he took out a red envelope from his suit’s inner pocket and handed it to Xu Yisen.

Xu Yisen accepted the envelope and politely thanked Yuan Chengmo.

Having passed the first door and greeting the person, and receiving the renaming red envelope, Xu Yisen’s next step was to go upstairs to knock on Munni’s room door.

Leading the bridal party group, he smoothly walked upstairs and stopped at Munni’s room door.
