Chapter 243 Return
"It's time for Your Highness to go on stage!" The servant who had helped her get dressed urged her anxiously, while deftly lifting Shi Li's skirt.

"Your Highness, just make sure you hold the bouquet securely, you don't need to worry about the rest," another servant told Shi Li.

Having attended so many weddings, they naturally know that some brides get so nervous that they forget how to walk.

With the two people's kind reminders, Shi Li finally took a step.

The wedding venue was decorated very lavishly, even a hundred times more lavish than the scene picture that Shi Li had seen.

The enormous diamond chandelier was so dazzling it almost made Shi Li's eyes spin.

The set design was exquisite; even a single artificial flower stuck to the edge was painstakingly crafted from gauze.

There was absolutely no intention to fool them.

Not to mention the pile of flowers and the envious glances from those around them.

Shi Li easily spotted Lian Sisi among the crowd closest to the edge of the platform.

Lian Sisi was waving happily at her, wearing a pale yellow dress with rhinestones, somewhat similar to the dress they wore when they first met.

It seems they wanted to show that their friendship had a beginning and an end.

The lights were so bright they were almost blinding. Joan, dressed in equally eye-catching clothes, stood opposite her and walked towards the center at the same time.

Finally, the two stopped and faced each other.

Their ceremony was simple, but the setting and the dresses were very elaborate.

After the vows were read aloud, the two said "I do" almost simultaneously.

Next, we exchanged rings.

"Oh, oh, oh! Give me a kiss, give me a kiss!"

"Give her a kiss! Give the beautiful bride a kiss!" Several children laughed and winked, standing loudly below the stage, cheering.

It was obvious that the adults in the family had deliberately encouraged it; everyone's eyes were filled with kindness and happiness.

With the atmosphere set, Joan gently cupped Shi Li's chin and kissed her.

An even louder jeer erupted in my ears.

Even Shi Li felt like her eardrums were about to burst.

The bouquet was finally safely delivered to Lian Sisi's hands.

Instead of standing still, Lian Sisi reached out and asked Shi Li to pull her onto the stage.

Shi Li was a little confused, but she did as she was told.

"Actually, I shouldn't be the one saying more here."

"But after going through so much, seeing how happy you are, I still want to say that I hope you can continue to be happy like this."

"May you be happy forever." Lian Sisi's unexpected emotional outburst clearly made Shi Li unable to hold back.

"Although our first meeting wasn't so pleasant, we were fortunate that we were able to let go of our prejudices against each other, get to know each other again, and accept each other."

"I feel very proud and lucky to have a friend like you." As soon as Lian Sisi finished speaking, Shi Li could no longer hold back.

He held Lian Sisi tightly in his arms.

Looking back, it was not easy for them to get to know each other. If even one of them had not let go of their prejudices, or if they had not encountered one danger, they might not have been able to reach such a deep level of understanding in such a short time.

"We'll be best friends for life, so I can always be happy," Shi Li whispered in Lian Sisi's ear, revealing her true feelings.

The grand ceremony came to an end, and after everyone left, two girls remained backstage, hugging and crying together.

After the ceremony, Shi Li finally let loose and cried. She had been worried about her makeup ruining and her own appearance, fearing she wouldn't be at her best at the wedding.

It will cause regret for both Joan and herself.

A wedding doesn't have to happen only once, but Joan's wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event.

"It's not like we'll never see each other again, don't cry." Shi Li gently patted Lian Sisi's back.

"Then why are you crying? How dare you say that to me?" Lian Sisi retorted quickly, even though she was sniffling, she still managed to finish her sentence as fast as she could.

"I'm crying because I'm sorry I can't attend your and Ido's wedding." Shi Li originally really intended to attend, but the main reason was that after the Queen's assassination attempt on her, and the fact that several beastmen from Yanhes Star were starting to urge her to return.

Shi Li didn't dare to think about what would happen if she stayed any longer, and whether the Queen would suddenly have another fit of madness and send assassins to attack again.

Just because she managed to dodge it once doesn't mean she was on high alert all the time; everyone has times when they need to sleep.

Shili was truly terrified.

The original plan was not to stay in Hailan Star for so many days.

Who knows that plans can't keep up with changes.

Therefore, Shi Li was ultimately unable to attend Lian Sisi's wedding.

"If I can't participate, I can't participate. At worst, I'll just hold another one on Yanhesi Star later."

"You shouldn't be so stingy as to not even have the money to prepare a wedding for me." Lian Sisi was quite thoughtful; she had always enjoyed traveling and studying abroad, and a grand wedding was far more appealing to her.
She does hope to travel between planets, exploring new customs and cultures.

A wedding is held locally according to local customs.

That way, no matter what race she and Ido are reborn into in their next life, they will already be husband and wife.

Therefore, Lian Sisi was saddened by Shi Li's statement that she could not attend the wedding.

Because she was already planning this kind of marriage.

They've even started planning routes.

However, Lian Sisi hasn't told Shi Li about this idea yet; she plans to keep it as a surprise.

"But I cried because I felt sorry for you suffering so much to get to where you are today."

"I'm happy for you." Their voices were full of sincerity.

So sincere that someone unaware of their relationship might mistake these two crying in each other's arms for a real married couple.

Joan and Edo watched from a distance, neither losing sight of each other nor being too close to interfere with their communication.

“I’m also very happy, after all, I witnessed your love story firsthand.”

"Even if I can't attend the wedding, you still need to report your preparation process to me." Shi Li was just joking, but she didn't expect Lian Sisi to actually agree so readily.

"Can't we really stay until tomorrow? Let's sleep one more night."

"Actually, leaving now won't be much faster," Lian Sisi tried to persuade her to stay one more time.

But when Shi Li thought about what happened to Qiong An last night, she knew that staying with her would be suicide.

Let's hurry back. At least there are other beastmen to keep each other in check, so things won't go too far.

Even in the end, Joan didn't know where she bought the handcuffs or anything like that; she thoroughly enjoyed tormenting them.

If you were to ask Shi Li now if she wanted to do it again, Shi Li would definitely shake her head. But Joan is confident that she can coax Shi Li into becoming a kitten who will ask to be fed on her own in the future.

"Let's get on the aircraft, we're getting ready to go back. I've packed everything."
