"Dong—!"
The church bells rang, rose petals fell from the dome.
The sunset's glow cascaded through stained glass, the dress like a winding white long river. Specks of dust flickered in the cut light.
The surrounding church pillars and dome squeezed inward, like a tall bronze cage, pairs of newlyweds held each other's hands, walking down the long red carpet. The people by the long benches applauded, blessing their union.
In the crowd, a golden-haired teenager sat quietly on the bench, hands clasped firmly on his lap. He gazed silently at everything within the church.
The silk hat and Blue Rose Scepter lay beside him, he wore a pure white long shirt, plain black trousers, his simple attire blending into the crowd without notice.
"Sir. Regardless of poverty, illness, hardship, pain, wealth, would you never abandon Ms. Changshu and forever love her?"
The priest asked the couple on stage.
