The wedding car, adorned with a banner asking, "How did you know I brought Ly Dinh home?", traveled on the Shanghai - Henan expressway on 10/2. It immediately caught the attention of other drivers due to the absence of a typical grand wedding procession.

Dong, driving on the expressway at the time, initially assumed the car had become separated from its main convoy. He sped up to offer congratulations and then noticed the banner's message, which he described as "making people both admire and envy". He offered to accompany them, saying, "My friend, is there only one wedding car? Then let me accompany you for a while!". The bride and groom gratefully accepted.

What started as Dong's gesture to accompany the couple for a short distance quickly grew into something larger. Unexpectedly, more strangers joined the journey. Soon, more than ten vehicles, all with their hazard lights on, formed a celebratory convoy for the couple, accompanying them for thousands of kilometers. Dong himself deviated from his original route by more than 100 km to escort the wedding car.

Reflecting on the experience, Dong remarked, "Although I arrived home a bit late, this journey was truly romantic. The bride and groom are both kind people". He added that the couple were both about 25 years old, with the groom hailing from a rural area of Henan province.

After a few hours, the groom drove into a rest stop on the expressway in Jiangsu, and the growing convoy followed suit. The bride and groom stepped out, offering cigarettes and wedding candies they had prepared as a thank you to the drivers. "Everyone has gone to great lengths, we sincerely thank you", the groom expressed.

By evening, when the car reached a rest stop in Wuxi city, the groom's family had arrived to pick them up. It was then that the impromptu escort convoy gradually departed. After returning home, Dong posted a video of the event online on 12/2, and it immediately went viral, touching hearts across the internet.

The groom's car was a Buick, a brand of the American General Motors corporation. Seizing this opportunity, Buick announced that in February this year, newlyweds who present their marriage certificate when ordering a Buick car will receive a 10.000 CNY wedding gift, directly deducted from the car price. A statement from Buick clarified their intent: "We do not want to capitalize on this breaking news, but rather to empower genuine love".

Lynk & Co, a brand with two cars participating in the escort, also posted an announcement seeking the kind-hearted drivers to send thank-you gifts.
