Five years later.

At the entrance of Fenghua Entertainment, a tall young man wearing a light-colored casual suit got out of the car and walked into the company's gate.

Xiao Yi, who had just signed the contract, happened to be walking towards the lobby on the first floor. When he saw the young man coming in, he widened his eyes in shock, stopped in his tracks, bowed hastily, and called out nervously and excitedly, "Brother Ye!"

Ye Ying looked at the two young boys who were a few years younger than her and smiled friendly: "Hello."

It was not until his figure disappeared at the elevator entrance that the two young men reluctantly withdrew their gazes, their faces still showing excitement: "Oh my God, it's really Ye Ying! I didn't expect to run into him as soon as I arrived. What good luck!"

"Brother Ye's face is so amazing. When I saw him up close just now, I even forgot to breathe." I couldn't help but sigh, "Also, although he speaks very gently, I feel that he has a strong aura!"

"Of course." Another one was full of admiration and yearning, "He's already won the Best Actor award at the age of 25, how can he not have a strong aura!"

Since he won the Best Actor Award for his role as Xuan Zhao in "Nine-story Tower" when he was 20 years old, Ye Ying's acting career has been like a rocket. In the next five years, he has made seven movies. Although the number is not particularly large, the quality is so high that it is jaw-dropping. Including "Dark Fire 3" and "Nine-story Tower", the average score of the nine movies he has made is as high as 9.3. Each of them is a classic work with both good reputation and box office, and he has also won the title of Best Actor. Among the movie actors of the same generation, no one can compare with him.

Ye Ying is a genius and a legend. She has been popular for seven years since her debut and is still at the peak of her popularity.

But no matter what the outside world says, no matter what position he is in today, apart from his mature appearance and acting skills, other aspects of his life do not seem to have changed much - the impression he gives is still gentle and humble, not arrogant or impatient, respecting seniors in the circle and treating juniors with courtesy, never flattering, and never feeling inferior. Even the most stubborn black fans have to admit after so many years that it is really hard to hate him.

Ye Ying pressed the button for the 26th floor. The elevator door opened and after turning a corner, she saw the president's office.

A boy who looked to be less than 20 years old just came out of the office, his face flushed, tears hanging from the corners of his eyes. His agent looked even worse, as if he was suppressing his anger. He turned around and saw Ye Ying, and was slightly startled. He quickly adjusted his expression and smiled and greeted, "Brother Ye is here?"

Ye Ying nodded and glanced over, and found that the young boy was staring at her with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Ye Ying retracted her gaze, walked to the office door without looking around, and pushed it open without knocking.

The boy was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "He didn't even knock on the door? Won't Mr. He scold him?"

The agent had taken him in because the boy had a good look, but now he regretted it so much that he couldn't help but pull him aside and cursed in a low voice: "Do you have a brain? Who do you think Ye Ying is? Who do you think you are?! You broke into Mr. He's office without permission, Fenghua can't keep you! Take the termination fee and get out as soon as possible!!"

The door panel blocked out the noise from outside. Ye Ying walked into the spacious office and saw He Xizhou, dressed in a suit and tie, sitting in the CEO chair with his legs crossed in an untidy manner, turning an expensive fountain pen over a document.

Hearing the noise, his brows furrowed, his handsome face showing undisguised irritation and anger. But when he looked up and saw Ye Ying coming in, his expression immediately changed. He stood up and greeted her with a look of surprise: "You're back? Didn't you say you'd come back the day after tomorrow?"

"You don't want to see me." Ye Ying stood still, squinting slightly, "That's right. After all, when I was away, there were other handsome guys who came to show their courtesy to Mr. He."

He Xizhou felt a chill on his back, and cursed the idiot in his heart. He stepped forward, held Ye Ying's hand and pulled her into his arms: "You are wronging me! I miss you so much. You came in without knocking just now. I thought you were here, but when I looked up, I saw a man with plastic surgery on his face pinching his throat and calling me Mr. He. I was so disgusted that I almost vomited the overnight meal."

The man's tone was angry and anxious, as if he was really afraid that he would misunderstand and be sad. His eyes were full of tension and a hint of grievance.

Although he has grown a lot older, his temper has not changed much.

A smile appeared in Ye Ying's beautiful eyes. She grabbed his tie, pulled it down, tilted her head back and kissed him.

It's only been a day since we've parted, but I'm already missing him. If I don't care about being in the office, I'm afraid I'll do something ridiculous in broad daylight. But the situation isn't much better now - Ye Ying was held by the waist and pressed against He Xizhou's thighs, the two of them squeezed into a leather boss chair, foreheads touching, lips and teeth unwilling to separate for a long time.

"That's enough." Seeing that Yue was getting emotional, Ye Ying pushed him and straightened the hem of her shirt, "Be careful if someone comes in."

"Who dares?" He Xizhou was not giving up and tried to kiss her, but Ye Ying pinched his cheeks hard, and his handsome face was immediately distorted.

"You're not ashamed to say that." He raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you dare to do that just now?"

He Xizhou pouted as he was pinched, frowned fiercely and said: "I've told him to get out!"

Years ago, Fenghua Entertainment changed its owner, and the company's president's name became He Xizhou.

His uncle Shi Fenghua built Fenghua Entertainment, devoted half his life to it, and accumulated countless honors and wealth. In recent years, as he got older, he became more and more tired of the days of exhaustion, so he decided to abdicate and travel around the world to truly enjoy life.

Shi Fenghua has never been married and has no children. She doesn't want to hand over the company to outsiders, so she naturally thought of her nephew. For others, it's a big pie in the sky, but with He Xizhou's personality, he wouldn't think it's a hot potato. Shi Fenghua tried to test He Xizhou's willingness, but he actually agreed after thinking about it.

"Oh," Shi Fenghua laughed unexpectedly, "Why did you change your personality? Don't you think it's troublesome?"

Being the CEO of Fenghua sounds glamorous, but there are too many burdens, pressures, and trivial things to face, and it is not as free as others imagine. With He Xizhou's unrestrained and casual personality, he should feel like a cage.

"It's a bother for you." He Xizhou replied, "But I can protect what I want to protect."

He Xizhou had previously invested in Mingyuechen's company. He had no interest in being a boss, and unlike Shi Fenghua, Ye Mingyuan and Mingyuechen, he had no ambition to build his own business empire. He only remembered how difficult it was for Ye Ying to get through those first few years, how Fang Chang drugged him and tried to hurt him, and how it was Ye Mingyuan who crushed Fang Chang and Wufang Media.

With a great reputation and a strong spirit, there are some things that He Xizhou can't do. Only by truly holding power in his own hands can he ensure a quiet and safe environment for Ye Ying, allowing him to focus only on his passion and career, without being eroded and tainted by darkness and malice.

When He Xizhou took over Fenghua Entertainment, it caused a huge uproar in the entertainment industry. Countless media were shocked, and netizens and fans found it unbelievable. They felt that he was not suitable for the position at all. There were even many people who predicted with certainty that Fenghua Entertainment had reached the turning point from prosperity to decline and was about to end.

But He Xizhou has used years to prove that he doesn't do something because he doesn't want to, not because he can't do it.

As long as he wants to do it, he can use his achievements to shut up all those who doubt him.

Today, Fenghua Entertainment is thriving. Although the young leader is not as experienced as Shi Fenghua, he is resolute and decisive, and full of courage. He has moderately restrained the unruly side of his personality. When he sits at the chief seat in the conference room in a suit, he is clearly a mature, steady, capable and reliable man.

Even He Pingqiu and Shi Fenglan felt that the troublesome brat had finally grown up after a few years, but Ye Ying felt that He Xizhou had not changed much in front of her.

That casual and childish, often jealous, narcissistic, arrogant, and big boy who loves himself very much.

"Have you finished promoting the movie?" He Xizhou said, "Take a few more days off. I can't give you any resources recently."

Ye Ying looked at him jokingly: "Why, Mr. He wants to hide me?"

He Xizhou really started acting, stroking his chin as if thinking: "It depends on your performance. If you serve the president well, I'll give you a new movie. The leading male role."

"How do you serve?"

"Ah." He Xizhou leaned close to Ye Ying's ear and said, "I'll work hard tonight. How about four times?"

Ye Ying pinched him, and the other party took the opportunity to grab her, pressed her into his arms, and kissed her fiercely.

After the two quarreled for a while, He Xizhou finally remembered something important. He cleared his throat and said, "Mom called this morning and said that the Civil Affairs Bureau will open marriage registration for same-sex couples tomorrow. Do we have any plans?"

Not long ago, the country successfully passed the same-sex marriage law, and the news was on Weibo's hot search for nearly a month. Not only were domestic same-sex couples celebrating, but the vast majority of ordinary people also smiled and expressed their support and blessings for the event.

It represents the progress of thought and civilization. Love should not have so many restrictions.

Starting tomorrow, the Civil Affairs Bureau will officially handle marriage registration procedures for same-sex couples. I heard that all appointment numbers within a week are fully booked. You can imagine what a scene it will be.

Shi Fenglan had been thinking about this matter for a long time, and called He Xizhou several times to urge him and Ye Ying to get the marriage certificate, and then officially hold the ceremony. It seemed that only by following this process in order could it be considered truly "successful".

Of course, He Xizhou also wanted to get the two red books back as soon as possible, so that Ye Ying could be completely tied to him in legal terms. But Ye Ying was less than 26 years old this year, and her career was still at its peak and even on the rise. He was not sure whether Ye Ying was willing to make the marriage public at the right time.

If you don’t want to... you can wait.

Anyway, I have been here for seven years, so I can wait for another year or two...

"I wanted to talk to you about something, too." He Xizhou's thoughts were interrupted when he heard Ye Ying say, "I've made an appointment. Let's go tomorrow."

He Xizhou suddenly looked up and stared at him.

"The promotion was supposed to take five days. Why do you think I came back early?" Ye Ying smiled and flicked the man's forehead with her finger. "Stupid."

He Xizhou opened his mouth but no words came out. He just felt his throat and heart were burning hot. Without saying a word, he hugged the young man tightly in his arms.

Ye Ying pressed her cheek against the man's chest, raised the corner of her lips, closed her eyes and listened to his passionate and powerful heartbeat.

He knew what He Xizhou was worried about, but how could he be unwilling?

——I love you—you love me.

To have your name and mine engraved together is something I have longed for a long, long time.

#The Civil Affairs Bureau officially opened same-sex marriage registration today#

#A long queue formed in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau at 5am#

#About 5 million same-sex couples across the country will become husband and wife today#

…

On the first day of same-sex marriage registration, almost all the hot search terms were about the topic. Major mainstream media reported on it and posted photos taken on the front line online. Netizens could easily click on it and see the backs of couples waiting in line to register. Many reporters were interviewing and broadcasting live on the scene. Some of the couples on camera were generous and some were shy, but without exception, they all smiled happily.

There was also a long queue in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau before dawn, almost all of them were same-sex couples, including young boys and girls, as well as middle-aged people over 40. Because there were too many people and the mood was particularly excited, the couples in line did not notice that there were two young men wearing masks in the long queue, with particularly superior appearance.

But a trainee reporter who was broadcasting live at the scene noticed it with his sharp eyes.

The two were tall, long-legged, and straight-backed, with a distinct temperament from those around them. They wore couple sweatshirts, the taller one in black, the other in white. Although both wore black masks, one could tell from their exposed eyebrows that they were both handsome and outstanding.

They held hands like the couple at the scene, chatting quietly together. The handsome guy in the black sweater lifted up his boyfriend's hand, smiled and lowered his head to kiss his ring finger.

The young intern reporter recorded the warm and romantic scene with his mobile phone camera, and then stepped forward to greet you nervously: "Hello. I'm a reporter from Orange Media, and I'm broadcasting live. Can I interview you?"

When he got closer, he felt that the two people's features seemed very familiar.

The two handsome guys were both easy-going and nodded in agreement.

Reporter: "What are your names, please?"

"My last name is Ye." The handsome guy in the white sweatshirt said, "My boyfriend's last name is He."

"Mr. Ye, Mr. He." The young reporter was immersed in the tension of the interview and didn't notice that the number of live broadcast rooms, which were originally few, suddenly began to soar, and the number of comments also began to increase rapidly. "How do you feel now?"

"I'm a little excited about this, and I'm a little excited about this." The handsome man named Ye curved his eyebrows and said gently, "I'm also looking forward to it, because I've been waiting for a long time."

"Have you been together for a long time?"

"It's been almost five years." said the handsome guy named He.

"Wow. I can see that the relationship between the two is very stable. I am really envious." The reporter laughed and said, "Then who proposed the marriage?"

"Me." The handsome man named He immediately said proudly, raising his boyfriend's left hand and shaking it towards the camera, "Our wedding ring."

The handsome man named Ye smiled without saying anything, allowing his partner to show their affection blatantly.

Even though the reporter had never met the couple before, he couldn't help but smile: "Next question. Traditionally, the division of labor between couples in the family is usually that the man works outside and the woman works inside. How do you arrange this?"

Handsome guy surnamed He: "He makes money, and I take care of it."

The reporter was a little surprised, because it was completely contrary to his guess. Seeing his surprise, the handsome man surnamed He hugged his boyfriend and boasted: "My wife is very good at making money--" Before he could finish his words, he was pinched by the man in his arms. He made a "hiss" sound and immediately changed his words, "I gave birth to a child."

The handsome man named Ye nodded and added: "Actually, he is also very good at his career. I also cook in my spare time. There is no fixed pattern of master inside and master outside. As long as we feel comfortable, it's fine."

The reporter nodded in agreement: "A classic question: Did the two of you fall in love at first sight or did you fall in love over time?"

"Love grows over time."

"love at first sight."

The handsome man named Ye looked at his boyfriend with some suspicion: "Huh?"

"Really. When I first met you, I thought you were my new assistant. I was wondering how come the little assistant was so pretty." He Xizhou couldn't help but want to laugh when he thought of the scene back then. "And I was also fascinated by your singing the first time I heard you sing. I didn't think much about it at the time, but now it's love at first sight, isn't it?"

It seemed like they were chatting about the topic for the first time. The handsome guy named Ye was obviously a little embarrassed. He squeezed his boyfriend's hand and signaled him to shut up.

The reporter didn't notice that the corners of his mouth were already raised to the extreme: "Okay, last question. On this special day, what do you want to say to each other?"

The handsome man named Ye thought for a moment, then turned to look at his boyfriend, with a faint light in his beautiful eyes: "The luckiest day of my life is the day I met you. The happiest day is today."

The answer from the handsome guy surnamed He was very concise, with only one word: "I love you."

The young reporter was very happy to have successfully completed a great interview. He thanked the two handsome guys and sent them his best wishes. Then he said goodbye to them. He had time to check his phone, but when he took a look, he was stunned.

The live broadcast room had only 23 viewers at the beginning, but now the number has become:

Over 100 million.

reporter:"?"

He blinked, thinking his phone was broken, but when he looked at the comments -

[Aaaaaaaaaaaah]

[Ah ...

[Ah ...

reporter:"???"

He looked at the barrage of comments with tens of thousands of crazy screams in bewilderment, not understanding what was going on. Someone in the barrage kindly reminded him:

[Congratulations, you are going to be famous]

[The reporter doesn’t seem to know who he is interviewing. I suggest you check out the top trending search. There may be a surprise.]

The reporter quickly switched to open Weibo, but it was stuck after two clicks. After finally clicking in, the homepage showed that the server was lost.

What happened, the software crashed?

He scrolled through the search several times, waited anxiously for a while, and finally clicked on the hot search list -

1. #He Xizhou and Ye Ying queue up to get their marriage certificate#

2. #Ye Sheng congratulates his birthday#

3. #My boyfriend's last name is He#

4. #It’s almost five years#

5. #My wife is amazing at making money#

6. #One leaf is really beautiful#

7. #The couple interviewed by Orange Media reporter He Xizhou and Ye Ying#

There were several related contents afterwards, and the first few entries were followed by a dark red “explosion” word, which was the reason why Weibo just crashed.

reporter:"……"

What the hell???

He Xizhou and Ye Ying? The He Xizhou and Ye Ying he just interviewed! ?

He had been in charge of social news before and was not particularly familiar with the entertainment sector, but even so, he was very familiar with two names - a world-renowned street dance master + the current CEO of Fenghua Entertainment, and a top-tier + young actor with amazing strength, who were often on the hot searches.

Now...the two of them went to get the marriage certificate?

get married! ? ! ?

Not to mention the reporters, tens of millions of netizens were feeling the same way at this moment.

[I feel like I’m dreaming now, the dream is so beautiful I really don’t want to wake up (crying)]

[Sisters Don’t Dream!! I’ve been watching the live broadcast replay, it’s true ahhhh!! Yi Ye Qing Zhou is really oh my god ahh ...

[I thought I was lucky enough to live to see the same-sex marriage law, but I never expected to see my CP come true! ! I will die with no regrets! ! ! ]

[My bestie and I have already shouted ourselves hoarse. We just hugged each other and screamed like crazy and cried like crazy!! I am shaking with excitement now (crying)]

[I used to say that Yi Ye Qing Zhou was real, and I always believed that they would go public one day, but deep down I knew that the possibility was very small. But today everything actually came true. I don’t have any words to describe my feelings at this moment. I just want to say that they are really brave, and they really really love each other.]

[This reporter is definitely a matchmaker, right? This live broadcast is really amazing. "My boyfriend", "My wife", "My life", "Love at first sight", "I love you"... Every sentence can kill me ten thousand times. He Xizhou and Ye Ying, you two are really the best match in the world! ! ]

[I have been a fan of this couple for seven years, from the beginning of the dream camp, to forming a group together, to living together after the breakup, to being together for five years. On the day the same-sex marriage law was passed, I was wondering if the boys I liked would openly announce it to the world, and now they have really done it. This time I am not talking in my sleep, I can shout out loud - the couple I support is getting married!!!]

The entertainment industry was shocked, the fan circle went crazy, and the shock was almost as great as when the same-sex marriage law was first passed. Countless people called on the two parties to come out and make an official announcement. About an hour later, the two really showed up.

[Ye Yingv: Got it! [Picture][Picture][Picture]]

The first photo shows the two of them wearing black and white couple sweatshirts, holding a bright red marriage certificate. The second photo shows them in white shirts with a red background, and the third photo shows them with their hands folded, revealing the plain wedding rings on their ring fingers.

He Xizhou reposted a Weibo post and attached a sentence.

[He Xizhou v: You can see clearly, my legitimate daughter-in-law @叶盈v]

——

He Xizhou was hit again.

"Change my wife." Ye Ying glared at him.

"Okay, okay," He Xizhou pretended to take out his cell phone, "Change it to wife?"

After saying that, he was pinched again.

He smiled, held Ye Ying's hand tightly, and led her back.

"I feel like I'm dreaming too." Netizens shouted that they couldn't believe it, and so did Ye Ying. He looked at the ring on his left hand - he remembered that five years ago when they were recording a group show in Iceland, on that diamond beach, He Xizhou had given him an ice ring. Unfortunately, the ring melted quickly, and He Xizhou promised to give him a real one in the future.

"It's true." He Xizhou held his hand tightly, as if to give him a sense of reality. "Now, every moment, and every day from now on, it's all real."

Ye Ying smiled softly: "I know."

"Ye Ying."

"Um."

"I love you."

"I know." Ye Ying said gently, "Me too."

Seven years ago, he thought he had nothing, until the luckiest day when he met a flamboyant and eye-catching boy.

The boy accidentally snatched his suitcase, but gave his hand instead.

He held her hand and would never let go from now on.
