Chapter 72 concludes the main text. May Heaven and Earth bear witness, I hereby...

The family of three is stunningly good-looking enough that any photo taken of them would be absolutely gorgeous, let alone the fact that they hired a top-notch photographer.

Fu Yanli held the adorable and pretty Nuonuo in one arm and the stunningly beautiful Jiang Shunian in the other, his usually expressionless face filled with an uncontrollable smile.

With such a perfect wife and children, it's really hard for him not to smile.

Even the photographer openly expressed his envy, saying that President Fu is a true winner in life.

The set of photos that pleased the photographer the most was of Jiang Shunian wearing a long blue-purple fishtail dress, with translucent fins spreading out in the seawater like smoke and mist, creating a very dreamy effect.

He was shirtless, his skin smooth and fair, without a single blemish, as if it could glow. His long, seaweed-like hair fell casually, just covering his chest. His blue-purple fish-fin ears made him look like a sea sprite.

He lay on the rocks, looking at Fu Yanli in a suit on the shore with a bewildered and curious expression. His face was exquisitely beautiful, so beautiful that it left people speechless.

The next photo shows Fu Yanli pulling the excessively beautiful mermaid out of the sea and holding her tightly in his arms with an overtly possessive posture.

Then he held the mermaid's chin with one hand, forcing her to tilt her head back to receive a passionate kiss.

The desire and possessiveness in the scene are almost bursting forth, making viewers blush and their hearts race.

This set of photos is top-notch in terms of composition, subjects, and tension. The photographer even wanted to ask Mr. Fu if he could submit these photos to a competition, as he was absolutely confident of winning a prize.

But obviously, no, this is Mr. Fu's private collection.

This fishtail was something President Fu had planned long ago, and it was indeed perfect.

Of course, he also prepared an adorable platinum blonde dress for Nono.

Nono looked incredibly cute in the fishtail outfit, especially when he swam around Jiang Shunian in the shallow sea. He really looked like a little mermaid, and anyone who saw that scene would be captivated.

On the night the filming ended, Fu Yanli tricked Jiang Shunian into wearing the fishtail again. Jiang Shunian liked it quite a bit, but after putting it on, she realized she had been tricked. The fishtail had hidden snaps at the front and back, which would reveal... Jiang Shunian regretted it at this point, but it was too late. Her legs were bound inside the fishtail and held in Fu Yanli's strong arms. She couldn't escape even if she wanted to.

In the end, Jiang Shunian really felt like he had grown a fish tail, and that he was going to be played with to death...

He couldn't help but shed tears, but Fu Yanli kissed him away, teasing him in a low voice, saying that what he shed were pearls.

Jiang Shunian almost couldn't help but complain, "Then how come you didn't choke after eating it?"

...

The two then took photos in other styles and themes, all of which were perfect.

Fu Yanli was very satisfied with the finished product, paid an extra 20% fee, and made sure that the photographer did not keep any negatives.

The photographer wasn't happy at all when he received money for the first time.

Jiang Shunian himself really liked the photos, except for the fact that he was bullied badly one night. He was too embarrassed to post the photos on Weibo, since they were indeed a bit too much.

So he picked out a photo of him and Nuonuo and posted it.

In the photo, Nono is nestled obediently in his arms, only her delicate and adorable profile is visible, and the little mermaid with her platinum-gold tail is so cute that it melts your heart!

The comment section exploded, with everyone hailing it as the arrival of a goddess of beauty, and it even trended on social media for its stunning looks.

[President Fu, draw your sword! The grudge of having your wife and children stolen will be settled today!]

[Ahhh, I could eat a hundred of these little mermaids like Nono in one bite! They're so cute!]

I'm not here to sabotage you, I'm here to join you. Can our family of four live together?

Please, I'd cry my eyes out if I didn't have Jiang Shunian as my wife.

Jiang Shunian scrolled through the comments section, always amused by the fans' whimsical ideas.

When she saw someone asking Jiang Shunian and Nuonuo to wear fishtails again for a live stream, Jiang Shunian couldn't help but blush.

The fishtail was so badly damaged by Fu Yanli that it was completely unwearable.

Of course, even if it were still intact, Jiang Shunian would never wear it again!

After taking wedding photos, there was still some time before the wedding, so Jiang Shunian didn't need to worry about anything related to the wedding. Just then, the filming of the TV series "Against the Wind" started, so Jiang Shunian simply joined the crew to film.

The learning outcomes during this period were remarkable, and even though it was her first time filming a movie, Jiang Shunian showed no signs of nervousness.

Before filming began, the director thought Jiang Shunian would be a challenge. After all, she was the boss's wife of the Fu Group. If her acting was not good, how should he talk to her? But he didn't expect that as soon as filming started, he would know that Jiang Shunian had definitely put in a lot of effort. Her acting was smooth and natural, and she was so mature that it was not like she was acting for the first time.

Moreover, Jiang Shunian is humble and hardworking. If you take the initiative to communicate with him, and if there is any scene that is inappropriate or if his acting is out of character, you must tell him and he will make changes.

To prepare for his role in the film, Jiang Shunian attended classes at Fu's School in his spare time. Without disrupting his studies, he quietly observed the teachers' expressions during lectures and incorporated these observations into his performance in the movie.

To tone down his appearance, he changed to the side-part hairstyle that teachers always wear, wore black-rimmed glasses, and dressed very simply. He portrayed the character of Yu Qiusheng perfectly.

In particular, when he clashed with the principal and choked up as he questioned why the bullies weren't punished, his emotions exploded instantly. His body trembled, his glasses were askew, and the despair in his eyes shocked and horrified everyone present.

Even the actor playing the principal, who was acting opposite him, was startled and almost broke character. Fortunately, the veteran actor reacted quickly and immediately took over.

After filming was finished, the veteran actor patted Jiang Shunian on the shoulder, praising him as "a promising young man."

Jiang Shunian smiled shyly and replied humbly, "Thank you for the praise, teacher. I will continue to work hard."

Because it was only a supporting role, Jiang Shunian only filmed for a month before wrapping up. When Fu Yanli came to pick him up, the director couldn't help but say, "Jiang Shunian, keep going down this path, and you will get what you want."

With Fu Yanli protecting him now, Jiang Shunian can pursue his acting career without any worries.

Jiang Shunian smiled and answered, "Yes."

Although his life has not been particularly lucky, he has gained the love of many people through acting, and through this, he met Fu Yanli and had Nuonuo. He will not forget his original aspirations and will continue to move forward.

After filming this drama, Jiang Shunian only filmed one commercial before taking a break, waiting for a new script and her wedding with Fu Yanli.

But soon, Jiang Shunian couldn't stand it anymore, because Fu Yanli always took advantage of the fact that he didn't need to get up early to bully him, and even bought a bunch of things inspired by the fish tail.

For example, the tail, for example, the golden bell... Although it was very comfortable, the extreme pleasure that made his heartbeat and breathing unbalanced was really too exciting. He both loved and feared it.

Finally, one night she exploded in anger, stomping on Fu Yanli's abs and threatening that if Fu Yanli continued to act like this, she would run away from the wedding with Nuonuo!

Fu Yanli then managed to restrain himself.

However, Jiang Shunian was unaware that he had fallen into a man's trap once again.

There were still two weeks until the wedding.

Jiang Shunian started trying on the wedding dresses they would wear, began looking at the wedding venue setup, and familiarizing herself with the wedding process. Fu Yanli also mentioned that the waters off the island were perfect for diving, and that he would take Jiang Shunian and Nuonuo diving after the wedding.

Jiang Shunian was very much looking forward to it.

Fu Yanli's body has fully recovered. Because he is not prone to keloid scarring, there are no scars left on his legs. Fu Yanli then seizes the time to exercise and strive to regain his original figure as soon as possible.

Jiang Shunian naturally supported it.

At first, Jiang Shunian didn't notice anything wrong. But after a week without any intimate relations with Fu Yanli, Jiang Shunian vaguely asked... After all, people's ability to adapt is terrifying. He can now eat baguettes, which are such an unpalatable food, without changing his expression, and sometimes even think they taste pretty good.

But Fu Yanli replied that he was too tired from exercising these past few days and would save it for their wedding night.

Jiang Shunian nodded, bewildered.

Three days before the wedding, after arranging his work, Fu Yanli took Jiang Shunian and Nuonuo on a private jet to the villa, which had been completely renovated and was ready for immediate move-in.

Their bridal suite was decorated in a luxurious and romantic style. Jiang Shunian especially liked the terrace, where he could sit in a chair and look out at the beautiful sea view.

His heart has been racing these past few days because he's looking forward to their wedding.

There are three villas on the island. Fu Yanli and Jiang Shunian live in one, Shen Lingyi, Fu Shizhang and Nuonuo live in another, and the third is for guests. However, due to the large number of guests attending the wedding, a cruise ship was also docked at the island's port for the guests to rest.

They held an open-air beach wedding in blue and gold tones, which blended perfectly with the island scenery, exuding elegance and luxury, and complementing their wedding attire.

Jiang Shunian didn't know what the fabric of the suit was, but it looked shimmering and shiny, and when he walked, it resembled a sparkling sea, which was very beautiful.

Nono served as a flower girl, responsible for handing rings to her two fathers, a significant responsibility.

He also has a blue and gold suit, the same style as his two fathers.

Nono has indeed grown a bit, but the designer left room for adjustment and altered it before the wedding so that it fits perfectly.

The day before the wedding, guests arrived one after another. Yu Yanchen hugged Jiang Shunian and said with a smile, "Congratulations, brother! May you and President Fu have a long and happy marriage and have many children... oh, we've already had them, hahaha."

Yu Yanchen's personality remains as straightforward as ever, and Jiang Shunian couldn't help but chuckle: "Thanks."

After hugging Jiang Shunian, Yu Yanchen picked up Nuonuo and lifted him high in the air: "Nuonuo has grown up again, and he's getting more and more handsome!"

Nuonuo smiled and called him "godfather," making Yu Yanchen beam with joy.

Pei Qingrong and his family of three also arrived by plane. Lu Yunchuan had also grown quite a bit taller and looked more and more like Pei Qingrong, definitely a high-value man.

Lucien and Atticus need to arrive early tomorrow morning because of the distance. Atticus started sending messages in the group last night looking for Nono, claiming that he brought Nono many, many gifts.

As for Lu Yunchuan, ah, who is Lu Yunchuan? He doesn't know him.

On the eve of their wedding, they held a bachelor party in the cruise ship's entertainment hall. Fu Yanli was in high spirits and was even teased into going on stage to sing an English love song.

This was the first time Jiang Shunian had heard Fu Yanli sing, and it was surprisingly beautiful. His voice was deep and mellow, his pronunciation was perfect, and his gaze toward Jiang Shunian was tender and affectionate, making it impossible not to be captivated by it.

Jiang Shunian couldn't help but smile back. It seemed that since meeting Fu Yanli, he had never felt fear, worry, or uncertainty about the future, because Fu Yanli would create a peaceful and stable haven for him.

According to custom, the couple cannot sleep together the night before the wedding. Fu Yanli was reluctant to comply, but Shen Lingyi grabbed him by the ear and dragged him away. Jiang Shunian rested with Nuonuo.

Nuonuo presented Jiang Shunian with a carefully prepared gift: "Dad, this is a gift I made myself. I hope you and Dad will be happy forever."

This gift is quite large, standing 80 centimeters tall, and is an exquisite wooden assembly structure.

Nono's aesthetic sense is on point; the entire building is beautifully designed and even has electricity. Each room can be turned on. In the lobby, there are wood carvings by Jiang Shunian, Fu Yanli, and Nono herself. The wood carvings are also lifelike and painted with colorful lacquer.

Jiang Shunian first expressed his sincere gratitude to Nuonuo and kissed his forehead. Then he immediately took Nuonuo's hand and began to check it. He wondered when Nuonuo had learned this skill and whether he had been injured while carving and assembling it.

Fortunately, Nono's hands were clean and there were no signs of wounds.

“Lu Yunchuan taught me wood carving. I’m not hurt, Dad.” Nuonuo let Jiang Shunian examine him, his big, dark golden eyes filled with joy and happiness. He even said, “Dad, if I want to date when I grow up, I will look for someone as good as Dad or you, Dad.”

Jiang Shunian was surprised at first, then slowly smiled, hugged Nuonuo in his arms, and said gently, "Yes, baby, if a relationship doesn't make you happy and enjoyable, but is full of thorns and scars, and can't help you become a better version of yourself, then you should give up decisively. You have to learn to love yourself first before you can love others. Similarly, the other person must also be someone who loves themselves and loves you very much, regardless of gender, as long as Nuonuo can gain happiness from this relationship."

Jiang Shunian never knew that the teachings of her parents were so important.

Fortunately, Nuonuo has escaped her original fate. With his and Fu Yanli's influence, Nuonuo will surely find true happiness in the future!

Jiang Shunian was initially excited, but then he suddenly realized that Fu Yanli would definitely not let him off easily tomorrow night... After all, he had been away for half a month, and he was sure he couldn't resist being teased.

So Jiang Shunian calmed down in a second and decided to get some rest tonight, because tomorrow would be a tough battle.

He held Nuonuo and slowly fell asleep. The next morning, Yu Yanchen came over and knocked on the door, telling Jiang Shunian to get up, put on makeup, and change clothes.

The beautiful woman, after being meticulously dressed, was as dazzling as a pearl. Even though Fu Yanli had witnessed Jiang Shunian's charm, he was still stunned by her radiance. Similarly, Fu Yanli was so handsome and elegant that it was impossible to look away.

The two were such a perfect match that Yu Yanchen took many photos. When he saw them exchanging rings, he was so moved that he almost cried.

When will he find such a wonderful lover?

Overwhelmed with emotion, he suddenly pulled Pei Qingyi close and sobbed, "President Pei, President Pei, can I date after I turn thirty? Will the company help me find a partner?"

Pei Qingyi couldn't help but roll her eyes, but didn't break free.

Under the azure sky, Fu Yanli solemnly made his vow: "Shu Nian, thank you for being willing to marry me. I will spend the rest of my life protecting you and never be separated from you. May you be free from illness and disaster, healthy and safe, and stay with me until we grow old."

Jiang Shunian didn't want to cry, but he couldn't help it. He couldn't say anything, so he could only nod vigorously. Finally, he choked out, "Fu Yanli, I want to grow old with you."

Fu Yanli's eyes also reddened slightly. He pulled Jiang Shunian into his arms and hugged her tightly.

May heaven and earth bear witness that I love Jiang Shunian the only one in my life.
