After sending Lin Xi back to the hotel, Zhang Zhiyan then drove back to his hotel. On the way, Qin Yu already called him once to urge him to stay, but when he found out who Zhang Zhiyan was, he only said that she would be back soon, as though he was very confident in Zhang Zhiyan and Lin Xi being together.

As he watched Zhang Zhiyan drive away and disappear from his field of vision, for some reason, Lin Xi suddenly felt an empty feeling of loss. Even he couldn't explain why he felt that way, but the feeling became more and more intense, and very quickly took over his entire mind.

Maybe, like what Ang Youyong's father said, he should find a girl he likes and get married.

But, where could he find it?

Suddenly, a figure flashed past Lin Xi's mind, but that figure was extremely blurry. Even though he possessed the Divine Insight Ability, he could not see the girl's face clearly, because even he himself had never seen that girl's face before.

However, at that time, the impression Lin Xi had of the girl was extremely deep, a pair of round glasses almost covered half of her face, her gaze was slanted to the side, her body looked thin and weak, yet she was standing in the cold wind like a little ruffian, with a slant of her eyes, the short hair around her neck looked rather mischievous, she did not have the dignified look a girl should have, but instead looked like a street delinquent.

What made Lin Xi feel the most was her attire. Under the cold north wind, with his bright red t-shirt, black work pants and the flip-flops on his feet, it didn't look like a girl's outfit at all.

She was the girl who accompanied Ning Qixue to pick him up at the Rong City train station that day.

Lin Xi couldn't even be considered to have met her!

Even Lin Xi himself didn't know why he would think of that Ruffian girl for no reason at all. That kind of feeling was as if some Ruffian girl had appeared in his mind by accident and wouldn't go away. It was extremely clear, even clearer than when he used the Heaven's Eyes.

Lin Xi suddenly shook his head, shaking off this absurd and ridiculous train of thought. He could not help but curse in his heart: "Damn it, why did I think of that little scoundrel, could it be that he's been too tired recently?"

….

The ninth day of the ninth lunar month, the Double Sun Festival, sunny, easterly, suitable for marriage and travel, and the adoption of a fixed alliance.

Today was a joyous day for Ang Youyong and Xia Qi, the newlyweds, and was also the main reason why Lin Xi had to come to the Lu Zhou this time, so he had to attend. Moreover, he was today's best man.

As for the bridesmaid, without question, it would be Zhang Zhiyan.

Originally, Lin Xi was extremely unwilling to be this best man, but he could not endure Ang Youyong's repeated requests and attempts to persuade him, and said that this best man must be him. Only then did he unwillingly agree to this request.

Maybe Ang Youyong saw that Lin Xi was unwilling, so he found a chance to secretly tell him: "Brother Xi, don't say that I won't take care of you as my brother, you are the best man and Zhiyan is the bridesmaid, you must grasp such a good opportunity, maybe it will really work, hehe."

Ang Youyong then continued to instigate: "If you really want to go, go after him. Who cares if it's the god of heaven or your father, if there's anything we can do in the future, we can talk about it. After we pass through this village, we really won't have this shop anymore.

Listening to Ang Youyong's endless chatter in his ears, Lin Xi felt that he really had no way of dealing with Ang Youyong. If it wasn't for the fact that his body was really too tough, he might have rolled up his sleeves to beat Ang Youyong up.

But Lin Xi was too lazy to explain, the more he explained, the more it would cause people to misunderstand, thus he did not say anything, took the best man's clothes and went to change.

To be honest, although Lin Xi was not considered handsome, he still stood tall and straight. He was refined and elegant, with a handsome face, wearing the clothes worn by the best man, he was still very spirited. If not for the fact that Ang Youyong was too eye-catching and had too much personality, the guests might really think that Lin Xi was the groom.

In the current era, weddings were usually held during the day, and most weddings were mostly Western style. There were even some newbies who wanted to pursue fashion, so wedding styles were endless.

For example, when it came to Ang Youyong and Xia Qi's wedding, they had formed a western-Chinese alliance, and it was even a true western-Chinese union.

According to the customs of Western weddings, they were usually held around two in the afternoon. Under the clear sky, the groom and the bride would be on the green lawn, surrounded by the eyes and blessings of many relatives and friends. They would then go to the priest to receive their blessings, swear to each other that they would complete their marriage, and finally exchange their wedding rings at the priest's announcement.

It was only now that the entire wedding process was completed, holy and solemn. In the eyes of the Westerners, marriage was a very sacred matter.

As for the traditional Chinese wedding, we paid more attention to it, such as getting married, crying, bowing to heaven and earth, honoring tea and entering the bridal chamber, the whole process was lively and lively, full of festivities and auspiciousness. There would even be relatives and friends who would come and make a ruckus.

However, Ang Youyong and Xia Qi's wedding ceremony started at the same time using two different wedding forms, and at the same time, they gave up on both wedding forms. However, their wedding process became more interesting, and like the traditional wedding ceremony, it was held at dusk, at around 6 o'clock.

Why six o'clock?

This also started from the word 'marriage'. Opening the 'marriage' meant a 'woman' and a 'unconscious'. The word 'woman' naturally referred to the newly married woman, while 'unconscious' referred to the meaning of Dusk.

This was because the ancients believed that every day at sunset was the time when Yin and Yang alternated. The Yang energy weakened while the Yin energy flourished, and at this time, when the marriage ceremony went well with the passing of the new bride, the new couple would also reconcile Yin and Yang. This also meant that after the sun set on this day, the new bride should change her surname and follow her husband's instructions.

It is worth mentioning that in our country's traditional weddings, we usually meet in the morning and pay our respects at dusk, and when the bridal sedan goes through the door, it should also be at dusk.

This kind of traditional noon wedding ceremony was only gradually becoming more popular after the Qing Dynasty. Because the Qing Dynasty imposed a curfew system, it was naturally impossible to hold a wedding in the evening, so they could only change it to noon or afternoon.

For this reason, the traditional Chinese marriage etiquette is called "amnesia," and amnesia is considered a gift among the five, which is the second milestone in life after a man's coronation or a woman's age gift.
