In the afternoon, the ceremony in the swimming pool auditorium officially began.

Zhou Ziyi had no parents or relatives present, and Yan Xiuzhi's biological father was not coming, so the "bride entering with her father's arm in arm" segment was cancelled and was changed to the two newlyweds entering hand in hand.

After re-doing their makeup and changing their clothes, Zhou Ziyi and Yan Xiuzhi stood in the waiting room.

Zhou Ziyi had put on his white gloves, holding a bouquet of pink roses in one hand, and the other hand seemed to be hanging down, but in fact he was pointing at it one by one, reviewing various precautions one by one. He lowered his head and walked back and forth in small steps. The makeup artist who was doing the final touch-up on Yan Xiuji took a look and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou is nervous."

Yan Xiuzhi also took a look, fixed her makeup, and walked towards the young man.

“Don’t turn around.”

The CEO stopped in front of Zhou Ziyi and looked at him: "Nervous?"

"Well, a little bit." Zhou Ziyi paused and sighed softly, "I'm a little worried that I might get the process wrong later..."

Yan Xiuji said: "You have finalized and checked these many times. Are you still afraid of making mistakes?"

"I know it's like this intellectually, but psychologically I can't help it." Zhou Ziyi smiled helplessly, "It's just like an athlete who has trained thousands of times or a student who has done countless practice questions, but they will still be nervous when they go on stage. It's unavoidable."

Yan Xiuji said: "I've remembered that too. Our procedures are the same, don't worry."

"I've already told you that this is a biological reaction. I can't control it." Zhou Ziyi touched his chest. "My heartbeat has quickened. I feel like I can hear my own heartbeat..."

Yan Xiuzhi suddenly grabbed his hand.

Zhou Ziyi: ???

"Look at me." Yan Xiuji said calmly, "Follow my instructions and take a deep breath. Inhale, exhale..."

Zhou Ziyi took a deep breath as he spoke, and then he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to relax a little.

He looked at their clasped hands and suddenly smiled: "Luckily I wore gloves, otherwise my hands would be sweaty now and you would dislike me."

Yan Xiuji let him go: "What nonsense are you talking about."

Zhou Ziyi smiled again: "Thank you."

Yan Xiuji: “…Nothing.”

***

Everything is ready, now it's time to enter.

The door leading to the swimming pool was opened, and there was a flight of stairs in front of them. Yan Xiuji and Zhou Ziyi walked up one after the other, and Zhou Ziyi would grind his fingers every time he stepped on a step.

The heartbeat that had finally calmed down suddenly accelerated again.

This wedding made Zhou Ziyi more nervous than the day of registration, and he felt more like he was getting married. Now as he walked up the stairs, Zhou Ziyi's mind was constantly running through not only the upcoming wedding process, but also the days ahead.

What will happen in the next three years?

Zhou Ziyi followed Yan Xiuzhi and stopped in front of a pavilion.

This is where the wedding process begins.

Two children from the Chu family were arranged in front of the two of them, wearing white suits and skirts, each holding a flower basket filled with flower petals. Yan Xiuji and Zhou Ziyi had just stood side by side for a few seconds when the person in charge of the wedding process at the hotel came close and whispered, "Please hold hands, it's about to start."

Zhou Ziyi took Yan Xiuzhi's arm.

This wasn't the first time he had held the other person's arm, but it was the first time he was so timid. And he couldn't just hold the other person's arm casually. In order to make the picture look good, Zhou Ziyi could only slightly hold Yan Xiuji's arm.

There is no way. The secret to taking good photos is to look lazy and relaxed at first glance, but in fact, you have to tense your whole body.

Yan Xiuji didn't seem to understand this mystery. He noticed that Zhou Ziyi's actions were not as intimate as before, and thought that the young man was getting nervous again, so he tilted his head and whispered, "Relax. Don't be afraid."

Zhou Ziyi was startled, then smiled at him: "Okay."

Yan Xiuji turned his head away.

The music started playing.

The song that is famous all over the world, the background music for weddings.

The hotel staff waved their hands, and the two children walked forward, grabbing the petals and scattering them in front of them, not at all shy. Yan Xiuji turned his head, and Zhou Ziyi looked at him with tacit understanding, and then the two of them walked out.

First, we walked across a rectangular swimming pool on an arch bridge, entered the arch, and then walked through the middle of the seats for relatives and friends. There were hundreds of relatives and friends present, and everyone applauded to the music and looked at the two newlyweds in white suits with blessing eyes.

None of Yan's relatives came today, but the good thing is that there is no one to ruin the atmosphere.

The little flower girls stopped in front of the last transparent trestle and made way.

A glass platform was added to the transparent glass bridge, which was decorated with white and pink bouquets. The pastor stood behind the platform, waiting for the newlyweds with a smile on his face.

The two newlyweds walked hand in hand onto the glass bridge and came before the pastor.

The music stopped.

This was not a believer's wedding, so the pastor did not have the long speeches before. He got straight to the point: "Now, please ask the two newlyweds to take the oath - Mr. Yan."

In fact, it should have been "groom" at the beginning, but since both were grooms, the pastor directly called out the name: "Whether you are healthy or not, are you willing to love your partner deeply, respect him, comfort him, help him, and swear to stay with him for the rest of your life?"

Yan Xiuji looked at the pastor and answered without hesitation: "I do."

Zhou Ziyi's heart trembled.

"Mr. Zhou." The pastor pointed at Zhou Ziyi again, "Whether you are healthy or not, are you willing to love your partner deeply, respect him, comfort him, help him, and swear to stay with him for the rest of your life?"

Zhou Ziyi replied: "I do."

"Amen." The pastor smiled and said, "Please face each other and exchange rings."

Li Fei and Tang Shirong rushed forward and handed over their rings respectively.

This pair of rings were the same diamond rings that had appeared at the previous engagement party. They were kept in a safe by President Yan and are now worn on the hands of the two again.

But this time, it’s the ring finger.

When the two were putting the rings on each other's hands, Yan Xiu Ji noticed that Zhou Ziyi's hands were shaking slightly, and he thought: He is nervous again.

After putting on the ring, the pastor said, "Now, you can kiss."

Zhou Ziyi's slightly trembling hand grasped Yan Xiuji's. At the same time, he raised his head slightly and moved closer to Yan Xiuji.

It looked like she was going to take the initiative to kiss Yan Xiu Ji.

After all, Zhou Ziyi didn't expect President Yan to take the initiative to do such a thing, and not backing away when being kissed was already President Yan's greatest restraint.

But the accident happened at this time.

Yan Xiuzhi actually took the initiative to move closer and kissed Zhou Ziyi on the lips!

Although it was just a light touch, it was enough to shock Zhou Ziyi. He watched Yan Xiuji suddenly approach and kiss him. If the occasion was not inappropriate, Zhou Ziyi would have screamed like a groundhog.

Yan Xiu Ji watched him open his eyes suddenly after being kissed, and suddenly felt a little funny in his heart.

It wasn't a mocking laugh, but I couldn't help but feel that way when I saw something funny.

This kind of smile even made Yan Xiuji's face reveal an obvious smile.

——I was always fooled by this guy, but now I finally got the upper hand.

——This person, isn’t someone who can handle everything with ease…

When relatives and friends saw Yan Xiuji's actions, they thought it was a happy smile and showed understanding and kindness. Yan Xiuji's mother and uncle looked particularly relieved. They had previously worried that Yan Xiuji was forcing the marriage in order to resist Yan Wenwu. Now seeing Yan Xiuji showing such a relaxed smile, they were no longer worried about the two young people getting along.

Zhou Ziyi, however, had the opposite idea from everyone else and reacted instantly: This guy is actually joking and laughing at me at this time!

I am really impressed. This big president is really bad when he makes jokes.

When they turned around and linked arms again, Zhou Ziyi couldn't help but grumble in a low voice: "Is it fun?"

Yan Xiuzhi smiled but said nothing.

Li Fei and Tang Shirong were going crazy as they looked at the expressions of the two men but couldn't hear their conversation.

——What's going on? Why would Yan Xiuji take the initiative to kiss Zhou Ziyi? !

——You are still laughing now, what does that mean? !

But no one could answer their questions.

Zhou Ziyi also threw a bouquet, and several girls from the Chu family went to join in the fun. Tang Shirong asked Li Fei: "Why don't you go?"

Li Fei said: "I have a boyfriend and I am planning to get married, so I won't join in the fun with the kids."

On the other side, Zhou Ziyi, who had thrown the flower, whispered to Yan Xiuji when they met, "Will catching my flower really not bring negative flags? If anything happens in the future, your child should not blame me."

Yan Xiuji glanced at him: "You think too much."

***

After the wedding ceremony, they said they could take a short break, but in reality, the only ones who could take a break were the guests who had to move to the banquet hall.

Yan Xiuji and Zhou Ziyi needed to change their clothes and slightly alter their hairstyle and makeup. The indoor wedding reception would be lit with spotlights, so in order to not look too bad in the photos, they needed to slightly adjust their makeup.

After struggling for dozens of minutes and before changing clothes, Tang Shirong and Li Fei came in with a simple meal.

As we all know, newlyweds don't have much chance to eat properly at wedding banquets. In order to conserve energy, it's better to eat something now.

However, Tang Shirong couldn't stay any longer, so he put down his things and was about to leave: "My dad is coming soon, I'll go out to meet him. I'll be back later. You must eat something to fill your stomach, otherwise it will be troublesome to drink at night."

Zhou Ziyi said: "Remember to eat something first, and you have to help me block the wine."

"Don't worry, I may not be good at other things, but I'm the best at drinking." Tang Shirong waved his hand and went out.

Li Fei was originally going to stay in the lounge. But somehow, Yan Xiuji and Zhou Ziyi were just eating quietly, and Li Fei felt a little redundant. After thinking about it, Li Fei also found an excuse to slip away: "I'll go see the process prepared by the hotel."

There were only two people left in the lounge again.

Zhou Ziyi lay down on his fried rice and looked at Yan Xiuji, as if he wanted to say something, but then he buried his head and continued eating.

After a few rounds of this, Yan Xiuji finally asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Uh..." Zhou Ziyi didn't know what to say, and hesitated, "Just now during the ceremony, why did you take the initiative?"

This was a little vague, but Yan Xiuji understood: "Oh, why did I take the initiative to kiss you?"

Zhou Ziyi: “Ah.”

Yan Xiuji: "We're going to kiss each other anyway, why can't I take the initiative?"

Zhou Ziyi: "But, you are not..."

"I can also play along." Yan Xiuji looked at him and said calmly, "Do you think I really want to do this?

"Don't think too much."
