# Liu Yifei's wedding journey: encounter beauty and envy
On a sunny afternoon this summer, I received a very important invitation – the wedding of my good friend. At that moment, I was both excited and a little nervous. Speaking of myself, my name is Li Xiaoyu, I am 28 years old this year, and I come from an ordinary but warm family. My parents are both teachers, and they taught me the importance of hard work and perseverance through their own actions. In this city, I work as a graphic designer, have a stable job, and my life is relatively uneventful, but since this wedding invitation, I feel like I have a little more to look forward to in life.
On the day of the wedding, I deliberately chose a light blue dress with fresh makeup, hoping to show my best self in this romantic wedding. When I walked into the wedding scene, I was blown away by the sight in front of me - a sea of colorful flowers, twinkling lights, and happy smiling faces, all of which made me feel the beauty of love.
As I sat in the front row, my eyes were quickly drawn to a figure. It was Liu Yifei, and her arrival seemed to make the atmosphere of the whole wedding more lively. She walked into my field of vision like a fairy in an elegant white gown, with a charming smile on her face. Although I didn't pay much attention to her before, she is undoubtedly the center of attention at the moment.
And next to her, the girl was just as eye-catching. Her makeup is delicate and her complexion is radiant, like a beauty coming out of a painting. I subconsciously swallowed, her presence eclipsing everyone else. At this time, a certain emotion arises spontaneously in my heart, which is both envy and an invisible pressure. This beauty made me wonder if my life was so plain because it lacked some brilliance.
As the wedding progressed, I slowly found myself losing sight of everything around me. The laughter of family and friends, the sweet echo of vows, but my mind was trapped in the girl's body. Her laughter was so crisp, as if every word reminded me, "Behold, you are so ordinary compared to her!" ”
I tried to keep myself focused on the wedding, hoping to leave these cluttered thoughts behind. However, the voice of the heart came like a tidal wave, and it was impossible to resist. I always fantasize about having more charm and being like her, so that everyone can stop for me. But the reality is that I am not the person who is shrouded in "halo", and life has not given me so many opportunities to shine.
Just then, my buddy walked up to me and interrupted my musings. She told me with a happy face that she hoped to be able to share more of her life with me in the days to come. Listening to her voice, the haze in my heart dissipated slightly, and I realized that true friendship and love are not only glamorous on the surface, but also in the sincere feelings between each other.
In the next session, Liu Yifei and the beautiful girl participated in interactive games together. Their performance is lively and natural, and there is no sense of distance that a star should have. I was attracted to them again, and secretly thought to myself, this kind of affinity is the beauty worth pursuing.
As time passed, the wedding finally came to an end. The bride and groom walked off the stage hand in hand, and the surrounding erupted in applause. I found myself standing next to it, but my heart was filled with confusion about the life that was coming. Perhaps, everyone's life has a different pace, and I just need to find my own pace.
When I was about to leave, I happened to meet Liu Yifei and the girl. They were smiling and exchanging interesting stories about the day. Somehow, I mustered up the courage to participate in their conversation. At first, I was a little uncomfortable, but as the conversation progressed, I realized that both girls were actually very friendly. Liu Yifei's humor and gentleness, and the girl's intelligence and vitality, made me no longer feel lonely, but felt an unexpected connection.
At this moment, I understood that the so-called self-confidence and charm are not just the glamorous appearance, but the inner abundance and love of life. Although I may not have the same striking appearance as theirs, my sincerity and enthusiasm can also touch people's hearts.
After some conversation, I exchanged contact information with them, and I was very happy. This wedding not only gave me good wishes, but also taught me to appreciate others and cherish what I have more.
On the way out of the wedding scene, the setting sun shone on the street, and I felt the warm glow and no longer felt small. Thinking of the bits and pieces of tonight, I feel that life is actually like this wedding, although it has its gorgeousness and brilliance, but more importantly, those touches and friendships hidden behind it.
In the days to come, perhaps each of us should learn to turn our eyes to our hearts and find our truest selves. The beauty around us is certainly desirable, but the most worthy pursuit is always the sincerity and connotation. In that moment, I understood: I can be myself, and everyone can be independent and beautiful.
This wedding allowed me to get to know more and understand myself better. I hope that in the future, I can continue to maintain such a mentality to face life, appreciate the people and things around me, and live the most authentic self.
