Chapter 270 Extra Chapter 4: Our Wedding (Part 1)

This is probably the earliest I've woken up from summer hibernation in over twenty years.

He sat half asleep in front of the dressing table, letting the makeup artist knead and shape him until the sun of Sleepless Island emerged from the clouds, bathing him in blue-gold light, at which point he became slightly more awake.

Meanwhile, the other people in the suite were already busy running around.

"Where's the dress? Is the dress ready?"

"Don't worry, it was done last night."

"Mianmian, have you had your breakfast yet?"

"I took a few bites when I had a spare moment, but I didn't dare eat more because I was afraid it would affect my makeup."

She only needed to eat a few bites; there were still many procedures to follow, and staying on an empty stomach could easily cause stomach acid. Zhang Yuno had been busy all morning, and seeing that she was almost done, she decided to go to the window for some fresh air.

Because the purchase and construction started late, only the eastern coastal area of ​​the Sleepless Island residential area has been developed.

However, because it was built relatively late, most of the island still retains its original form. Towering coconut palms, soft and fine sand, and temples built in an unknown era, surrounded by swathes of Tiara flowers swaying in the sea breeze, all exuding a relaxed and free atmosphere.

"Hiss, Teacher Zhang, is that a person on the float?" Chestnut, who was getting some fresh air with Zhang Yuno, suddenly realized that something was not quite right.

The Zhou family and their entourage were staying not far from them, and the helicopters, yachts, and wedding cars used to transport guests were also parked in the dock parking lot over there. Zhang Yuno looked closely and saw that the driver was already checking the wedding car: "They're not going to head over now, are they? It's only this early, it's not like they're kidnapping the bride."

The groom's makeup is not as complicated as the bride's, but the hairstyle hasn't been done yet, the suit hasn't been put on, and most importantly, the couple doesn't look very awake. It's too rushed to pick up the bride now!

Zhang Yuno shook Xia Mian awake: "Xia, should we ask someone to let Mr. Zhou know that we're not ready yet and tell them not to rush and to wait a little longer?"

There was no need to look for anyone. Xia Mian yawned, took out her phone, and sent a message to Zhou Pingchuan: 【Are you guys about to leave?】

The jerk probably finished putting on his makeup, because he replied quickly: "Hmm."

Summer: [What's the rush? I've only done half of my styling. I'll tell you when it's finished.]

Zhou Pingchuan looked at the screen and took a deep breath.

How can I not be anxious?

Since bringing their guests to the island the day before yesterday, they have been adhering to the custom of not meeting each other before the wedding, entertaining their own relatives and friends separately, and have been so busy that they haven't even had a chance to say a word to each other.

Actually, when they are busy with work, they often don't see each other for ten days or half a month, but for some reason, these past two days have been unusually difficult to bear.

Dog of a man: [Hey, can you hurry up?]

Actually, Xia Mian also misses Zhou Pingchuan a little.

To avoid smudging his lip makeup, he restrained himself and pressed down on the corners of his lips, communicating with the makeup artist: "Teacher, just do a simple job, it doesn't need to be too elaborate."

Makeup artist: "How can that be? This is a major life event, it has to be perfect. I guarantee you'll be the most dazzling person in the entire sea today!"

Xia Mian was attracted by "the most handsome guy in the whole sea area". After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally decided to ignore Zhou Pingchuan's request, close her eyes and let the makeup artist continue to shape her.

But his information had some effect; the other side stopped being in a hurry and just kept checking the flowers on the wedding car to make sure there wasn't a single yellow or old leaf, and that they were fresh, vibrant, and festive.

About forty minutes later, Chestnut came to report that there was movement on the other side again. By this time, Xia Mian had finished her makeup, and only the bridal chamber was not yet ready.

Everyone pitched in, some tidying up the belongings, others spreading out the wedding quilts, while Zhao Wei diligently recorded every detail with his camera.

The wedding car arrived in the blink of an eye, and amidst the hustle and bustle, the first door was already being knocked on.

Cheng Qi's nonchalant voice came from outside the door: "We're here to pick up the groom, please be accommodating, brothers and sisters."

Dahuang and Lizi were in charge of guarding the first gate, and the two were dutiful: "Our Xia Xia is not someone you can just take away. She must pass our test!"

Cheng Qi pulled out a handful of red envelopes, two of which were unusually large. Xia Mian, dressed in a traditional Chinese wedding gown, sat on the edge of the bed. She heard her usual right-hand man chuckle, and then the door opened.

aestivation:"......."

miser!

The second gate was guarded by Zhang Yuno and Yao Yao. These two were a little more reliable. They took out the game props they had prepared the night before, made the best man wear a mask to blow out the candles, and made them dance the Swan Dance on the acupressure mat. They made a complete fool of themselves, which made the guests laugh out loud.

The third door was occupied by Zhao Xiaohui. This guy was strong and muscular; he was like a wall just standing in front of the door.

"Mr. Jay, I've prepared a few questions. You can only enter if you answer them correctly."

Zhou Pingchuan made a "please" gesture.

Zhao Xiaohui: "First question, please tell me one small thing that you and Xia Mian remember most."

The third door was the last one. Through Zhao Xiaohui's massive frame, one could vaguely see the red bridal chamber and the bridal bed. Zhou Pingchuan glanced at Xia Mian and uttered a string of numbers: "That day, he decided to stay for me."

This is a classic wedding question, and as for the answer, only the couple knows the answer.

Zhao Xiaohui turned to Xia Mian and asked, "Is it okay?"

Xia Mian blinked, "He's past the date, since he can remember it so well."

"Okay, the second question. Tell me about your sweetest moment?"

Zhou Pingchuan then rattled off a string of numbers: "Last autumn, at Zhou's residence."

That day, Zhou Pingchuan accepted Xia Mian's "marriage proposal".

Zhao Xiaohui turned his head again: "What about this one?"

Xia Mian pursed her lips: "Yes, that's fine too."

Zhao Xiaohui: "Okay, one last question. Tell me about a day in your time with Xia Mian that you think you should remember forever."

Zhou Pingchuan answered without hesitation.

Upon hearing that date, Xia Mian's eyes widened suddenly.

Others may not know, but he can never forget the day he left his familiar world, traveled into this book, and met Zhou Pingchuan.

Therefore, what Zhou Pingchuan needs to remember forever is his arrival, the sweetest thing is getting engaged to him, and the most unforgettable thing is that he was willing to stay for him.

This guy...

Summer's nose suddenly stung with tears.

The makeup artist, who was waiting nearby, noticed his expression and quickly reminded him, "Baby, hold it in, you must hold it in, you can't cry!"

“…Hmm.” Xia Mian pouted, turning herself into a tearful cat.

After answering the three questions, Zhou Pingchuan finally overcame all obstacles and strode in.

Marriage should be a matter between young couples, and the process should be as smooth as possible. But I don't know when it started, but a complicated and tedious process of giving red envelopes, playing games, answering questions, etc. has become popular.

Zhou Pingchuan always prioritized efficiency and disliked trivial matters. But he was willing to go through everything, big and small, with Xia Mian, and they would face many more challenges together in the future.

Zhou Pingchuan handed his walking stick to Cheng Qi, then knelt on the ground with difficulty but determination, presenting the bouquet of flowers to the person he had been longing for:

"Xia Mian, I've come to pick you up."
