In the car, Wu Sicheng looked at An Moxue, whose beauty was shrouded in mystery through the thin veil.

An Moxue noticed his intense gaze, turned to face him, smiled sweetly, and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Wu Sicheng blurted out, "It looks great!"

An Moxue readily admitted, "Of course, you have excellent taste!"

Fu Shanyue, who had defeated many competitors to become the wedding car driver that morning, chuckled and said, "There's a reason why you can become a family."

At this moment, An Moxue and Wu Sicheng both looked ahead. Only then did An Moxue notice the driver and asked, "When did you arrive?" She was clearly too nervous to notice who was driving.

Wu Sicheng was unhappy that he had disturbed them, and his eyes were fierce.

Fu Shanyue noticed their dissatisfaction and shouted, "You two have no conscience! I fought tooth and nail for this driver's position this morning!"

Wu Sicheng was unimpressed, saying, "If you don't drive, plenty of others will."

An Moxue nodded in agreement.

Fu Shanyue's gesture eased the tension between the two.

At that moment, the emcee's voice rang out from outside the car, "The auspicious time has arrived, the wedding car is about to depart."

Fu Shanyue joked, "Comrade An, how much did you bring as dowry? It took you so long to pack it all up. You must be really rich."

An Moxue held the apple in both hands, sitting upright, and said, "I don't know, I didn't prepare it."

Wu Sicheng said, "Ignore him, he's such a chatterbox. Have you eaten breakfast? I brought some pastries, would you like some? I picked out a few of your favorites." As he spoke, he took a pastry from a food box next to him and was about to feed An Moxue.

She quickly shook her head and said, "I had a bowl of noodles this morning, I'm not hungry. Have you eaten?"

Wu Sicheng shook his head and put the pastries back into the box.

An Moxue thought he wasn't hungry, but then Fu Shanyue teased from the front, "He's not hungry. Just thinking about marrying you is enough to fill him up. He doesn't need to eat; just thinking about you makes him full."

Wu Sicheng said with displeasure, "Shut up, or I'll change drivers."

Fu Shanyue still spoke in a rogue-like tone: "I'm afraid that won't work. It's unlucky for the wedding car to stop halfway."

An Moxue said lightly, "It's okay, we don't have to stop the car. We can just kick you out."

"You're ruthless, I'll shut up," Fu Shanyue said, feeling aggrieved.

Wu Sicheng was in a great mood and praised An Moxue, "Moxue, it has to be you. You have the best way to deal with this scoundrel."

Fu Shanyue's outburst completely dispelled their tension, and the two of them returned to normal.

An Moxue asked, "Didn't you eat anything this morning?"

Wu Sicheng said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I'm not hungry. I'll eat when I'm hungry. Just don't go hungry, don't worry about me. Mo Xue, you look beautiful today!"

"Thank you, you look handsome too. Aunt Ma has excellent taste. This long robe and mandarin jacket suit you perfectly, making you look like a noble young master." An Moxue was never one to be stingy with praise, and she complimented him generously.

Wu Sicheng said regretfully, "It's a pity we can't take pictures."

An Moxue whispered, "It's okay. When it's just the two of us left, we can take as many pictures as we want. After we're done, we'll develop them ourselves, and just the two of us can watch them. Then we can secretly keep them."

"Okay." I'm happy doing anything with her.

The car drove out of the alley where An Moxue lived and headed towards Shizi Hutong, where Wu Sicheng was preparing his wedding room.

Everyone who saw this wedding procession along the way couldn't help but wonder which family's son and daughter were getting married; it was truly a rare spectacle.

The car arrived smoothly at Shizi Hutong, where Wu's mother and father were already waiting at the door. They couldn't stop smiling when they saw the wedding car, feeling grateful for their son's hard work.

Upon hearing the noise, relatives and friends all came out to respond, and the sound of firecrackers echoed throughout the alley.

Wu Sicheng carried An Moxue into the bridal chamber.

At this moment, the relatives and friends of the Wu family were also extremely surprised when they saw the dowry. The most fashionable complete wardrobe, color TV, refrigerator, motorcycle, and set after set of bedding, one box after another, all sealed with the character "囍" (double happiness) on them. It was clear that the contents were not cheap, because all the boxes were the same size. Some knowledgeable people recognized that they were all made of sandalwood, so the contents inside must be extraordinary.

Although Wu Sicheng didn't know what was inside the box, he had already prepared two side rooms in advance to store these things, as Old Ma had suggested, and even asked someone to guard them, so it probably wouldn't be cheap.

Inside were some of the antiques Tiger had collected over the years, selected and kept by Old Ma. Every piece was a masterpiece. There was also some he had collected, all of which were given to An Moxue as part of her dowry. This was why An Moxue didn't know what the items were.

The dowry also included daily necessities, everything from needles and thread to pots and pans, all imported goods bought at the Overseas Chinese Store with exchange certificates that Old Ma and Aunt Ma had exchanged with others.

Wu Sicheng carried An Moxue towards the bridal chamber and whispered to her, "Moxue, I regretted it this morning. I should have carried you to the car instead of Wentao."

An Moxue suppressed a laugh and said angrily, "The only difference between Wentao and my own brother is blood relation. Everything else is the same, and he's even better than many brothers. What are you jealous of? It's completely unreasonable."

Wu Sicheng glanced around, quickened his pace, and whispered, "I'm so jealous, it's making my teeth ache!"

An Moxue produced a candy from who-knows-where and unexpectedly stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "Is it sweet now? It can't be sour anymore, understand?"

The jealous king instantly transformed into a sweet puppy, his eyes crinkling with happiness, his whole body radiating bliss.

Wu Sicheng carried her all the way to the bridal chamber. The two of them followed the master of ceremonies to perform the traditional blessing ceremony, lift the veil, drink the nuptial wine, and then went to the living room to serve tea to Wu's parents.

The two returned to their bridal chamber. Wu Sicheng changed into his military uniform, while An Moxue changed into a cheongsam adorned with phoenix and peony motifs. She removed her phoenix crown, adorned herself with a golden phoenix hairpin, and then went to the state guesthouse to hold their wedding ceremony.

On the podium, An Moxue looked at the people below the stage. Apart from this general, there were generals and so on. Even the person presiding over the wedding ceremony was Zhang Jing, who is now the chief of staff of the General Military Region.

Wu Sicheng asked in a low voice, "Do you like it? I specially asked Chief of Staff Zhang to do it."

"Mmm." An Moxue nodded gently, her eyes filled with satisfaction.

On stage, Zhang Jing was introducing the love story of the two, and he happened to mention that An Moxue had saved Wu Sicheng several times.

An Moxue glanced at Wu Sicheng and asked in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Is this what you and Uncle Zhang said?"

Wu Sicheng said very seriously, "Yes, I want more people to bless us."

The person who loves you will care about every little thing about you. He loves her, even if he doesn't say it, he does so much that speaks louder than a thousand words.

Finally, after introducing their backgrounds, the oath was taken. The two looked at each other nervously and repeated the oath word by word after Zhang Jing:

I am Wu Sicheng.

I am An Moxue.

[We voluntarily become husband and wife, support each other, build a socialist country, be masters of the country, and contribute our efforts to every brick and tile of the nation.]

Hereby, I swear an oath to the great man to show my sincerity.

From below the stage, enthusiastic blessings resounded.

At this moment, he finally made her his family and fulfilled his initial promise.

She, too, is no longer alone in the vast sea of ​​people; she has someone to rely on and someone to accompany her.

He only had eyes for her, and she only had eyes for him.

My eyes are filled with stars and the sea, but there is only one person there, and that is you.

The End
