I was a rookie reporter in the 00s

The day before the wedding, Lin Yue's room was filled with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation. She sat at her dressing table, clutching the glittering diamond ring, a hint of unease in her eyes. Zhang Wanqing sat by the bed, watching Lin Yue, understanding her feelings.

"Yueyue, what's wrong with you? Are you nervous?" Zhang Wanqing asked softly, with concern in her tone.

Lin Yue sighed, gently put down the diamond ring, turned around, and had a wry smile on her face: "Wanqing, I suddenly feel so nervous. I'm getting married tomorrow, and I... I'm afraid I won't be a good wife."

Zhang Wanqing walked over, sat next to Lin Yue, and gently held her hand: "Yueyue, you are the best. Li Wei loves you, and your family and friends support you. You just need to be yourself and don't worry about anything else."

Lin Yue nodded, but there was still a hint of worry in her eyes: "But, I... I'm afraid I can't meet his expectations."

Zhang Wanqing smiled and said, "Yueyue, do you know? Li Wei chose you because you are Lin Yue. He loves everything about you, including your strengths and weaknesses. You don't need to become someone else, you just need to be yourself, and he will be happy."

After hearing what Zhang Wanqing said, Lin Yue felt a little calmer, but she still couldn't help asking, "Wanqing, do you really think I can do it?"

Zhang Wanqing nodded firmly. "Of course, I firmly believe you can do it. You are the bravest, kindest, and most beautiful girl. Tomorrow, you will become the happiest bride."

Lin Yue was moved by Zhang Wanqing's words, and her eyes were slightly moist: "Wanqing, thank you. I feel much more at ease with you around."

Zhang Wanqing patted Lin Yue on the back and said with a smile, "Okay, stop crying. Let's talk about the details of tomorrow's wedding. This will distract you."

Lin Yue nodded, wiped her tears, and began to discuss the details of the wedding with Zhang Wanqing. They talked about the wedding process, the seating arrangements for the guests, the music selection, and so on. As the discussion deepened, Lin Yue's mood gradually relaxed.

"Wanqing, what do you think Li Wei's reaction would be when he sees me in a wedding dress?" Lin Yue suddenly asked with a shy smile on her face.

Zhang Wanqing thought for a moment and said, "He will surely be shocked by your beauty and will be unable to hold back his tears of happiness. He will surely think that you are the most beautiful bride in the world."

After hearing this, Lin Yue showed a happy smile on her face: "I hope so."

Just then, the doorbell rang. Zhang Wanqing went to open the door and found Fu Siyuan and Li Wei. They were carrying some wedding supplies, ready to help with the decoration.

"Yueyue, we are here to help!" Li Wei walked into the room and saw Lin Yue sitting in front of the dressing table with a hint of nervousness on her face.

Fu Siyuan also walked in. Seeing Lin Yue's expression, he smiled and said, "Yueyue, tomorrow is your big day. Don't be too nervous. Everything will go smoothly."

Lin Yue looked at them and felt more at ease: "Thank you, I feel much better with you around."

Li Wei walked over and held Lin Yue's hand: "Yueyue, I know you are nervous, but you have to believe me. I will always be by your side, no matter what happens."

Lin Yue nodded, a reassuring smile on her face: "With you here, I'm not afraid of anything."

Fu Siyuan looked at them and felt warm in his heart. He knew that the newlyweds would have a bright future.

"Okay, let's help with the set up. Yueyue, you take a rest and let us handle these things." Fu Siyuan said.

Lin Yue nodded, leaned against the bed, and watched them busy at work, her heart filled with gratitude. She knew that with these good friends around her, her wedding would be perfect.

On the wedding day, the sun shone brightly, and the air was filled with the delicate fragrance of flowers. The banquet hall was decorated like a dream, with white roses and pink lilies intertwined to create a romantic and solemn atmosphere. Guests arrived one after another, their faces filled with happy smiles. Zhang Wanqing and Fu Siyuan greeted each guest at the door, while Lin Yue made final preparations in the dressing room.

Lin Yue, wearing a pristine white wedding gown, stood before the mirror, looking at herself as if she had stepped out of a fairytale. A hint of shyness and anticipation adorned her face, her eyes gleaming with happiness. Then, a makeup artist approached and gently placed a veil on her head.

"Ms. Lin, you look so beautiful today." The makeup artist exclaimed, her tone full of sincerity.

Lin Yue smiled faintly, but a sense of unease suddenly welled up in her heart. She turned around and said to the makeup artist, "I... I'm a little nervous."

The makeup artist held her hand gently: “Ms. Lin, you don’t need to be nervous. Today is the best day of your life, you just need to enjoy this moment.”

Lin Yue nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down. At this moment, she suddenly realized that Li Wei was gone. Her heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came over her.

"Where is Li Wei? Why isn't he here?" Lin Yue asked the makeup artist anxiously.

The makeup artist shook her head: "I don't know either. He was there just now."

Lin Yue's heartbeat quickened as she hurried out of the dressing room, searching for Li Wei. Inside the banquet hall, the guests were already seated, and everything on the stage was ready, waiting for the newlyweds to appear. Zhang Wanqing and Fu Siyuan, noticing Lin Yue's anxious expression, immediately approached.

"Yueyue, what's wrong? You look anxious." Zhang Wanqing asked with concern.

Lin Yue said anxiously: "Li Wei is missing, I can't find him."

Fu Siyuan frowned: "Could it be that he went out for something? Let's wait and see."

Lin Yue shook her head: "No, he won't leave at this time. I have a bad feeling."

Zhang Wanqing looked at Lin Yue's anxious expression and felt a little uneasy. She decided to split up and look for Li Wei. While comforting Lin Yue, she and Fu Siyuan searched inside and outside the banquet hall.

"Yueyue, go back to the dressing room and wait. Siyuan and I will go find him. He will be back soon." Zhang Wanqing said.

Lin Yue nodded. Although she was still uneasy, she returned to the dressing room. She sat on the chair and prayed in her heart that Li Wei would appear.

Meanwhile, Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing were searching for Li Wei in the garden outside the banquet hall. They looked everywhere, but couldn't find Li Wei. Just then, Fu Siyuan's phone rang. He picked up the call, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"What's wrong? Who's calling?" Zhang Wanqing asked anxiously.

Fu Siyuan hung up the phone and said, "It's Li Wei's colleague. He said Li Wei has received an urgent task and may be back later."

Zhang Wanqing's heart sank. "What should I do? The wedding is about to begin."

Fu Siyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back and tell Yueyue not to worry. Maybe Li Wei will be back soon."

When they returned to the dressing room, they saw Lin Yue sitting in a chair with a hint of anxiety on his face. Seeing them come back, Lin Yue hurriedly asked, "Have you found him?"

Zhang Wanqing shook her head. "Yueyue, Li Wei has received an urgent mission and may be back later. But we believe he will be back as soon as possible."

Lin Yue's eyes flashed with disappointment, but she quickly regained her resolve: "Okay, I'll wait for him. Today is the most important day for him and me, and I believe he won't let me down."

Just then, the wedding planner walked in: "Ms. Lin, the wedding is about to begin, are you ready?"

Lin Yue nodded: "I'm ready. Please start, I believe Li Wei will come."

The wedding planner nodded and turned to leave. Lin Yue stood up, took a deep breath, and calmed herself down. She smiled at herself in the mirror and slowly walked out of the dressing room.
