The wedding is tentatively scheduled for March, when all the flowers are in bloom, the best season.
On New Year's Eve, Su Zhou brought Xie Chi back to the Su family home.
This was Xie Chi's first real visit to the Su family since they started dating.
The villa was very quiet because there were no children inside. However, the Su family had excellent taste; although the villa wasn't large, it was a peaceful oasis amidst the hustle and bustle, and had a unique charm.
The two walked side by side and appeared at home.
"You're back? Your dad's cooking in the kitchen. You two rest for a bit, I'll call you when it's time to eat." Wang Xingyue was helping out in the kitchen; the couple were wearing matching aprons and looked surprisingly harmonious.
Su Zhou was already used to this, and pulled Xie Chi to go upstairs, saying, "I'll take you to see my room. You haven't seen my room yet."
Xie Chi took out a gift: "This is a New Year's gift."
Xie Chi never addressed anyone as "uncle" or "aunt," after all, he was already very old and of a higher generation than everyone else. If he were to be addressed as "uncle" or "aunt," it would be like shortening his lifespan.
Wang Xingyue smiled and said, "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."
Su Zhou's room was a culmination of her own aesthetic, a perfect embodiment of maximalism, with everything shimmering with a magnificent light. Xie Chi's gaze fell on Su Zhou's photograph.
Yes... her at different ages.
They're just so cute.
So happy.
Her scent is everywhere.
Husband, your feelings are a bit too obsessive.
Su Zhou was a little startled when she suddenly heard Xie Chi's heartfelt words. It wasn't fear, but rather that he loved her too much. She felt embarrassed listening to him.
"Can I take this photo album with me?" Xie Chi looked at it again and again, still reluctant to put it down.
That photo album is very old. Su Zhou's album is full of her own photos, but for Xie Chi, it is something he really wants.
Su Zhou waved her hand generously: "Sure, whatever you want."
The two sat in the room for a while, then Wang Xingyue knocked on the door: "Dinner's ready."
Grandparents and maternal grandparents also came back. All the hard work throughout the year has finally yielded fruitful results.
The table was laden with fine wine and food, but the main topic of conversation was naturally Suzhou porridge.
"Sleep at home tonight or go back to the zoo?" It was still snowing heavily outside, and Wang Xingyue clearly wanted Su Zhou to stay home and rest. Seeing through Wang Xingyue's meaning, Su Zhou nodded: "At home."
"Xiao Zhou, go upstairs and rest for a while. We need to talk to Xie Chi," Su Yunhai said.
Here we go again, this is the classic scene.
Su Zhou could almost guess what they were going to say, but she really wanted to stay and eavesdrop.
They walked very slowly.
Only a few members of the Su family remained at the dining table.
Su Yunhai touched his hair. "Xiao Chi, as you can see, Xiao Zhou is the center of our family. She is our only daughter, and we cherish her dearly. I hope you will treat her well in the future and not upset her."
"I will listen to her." Xie Chi's voice was cold, but brooked no argument.
"All my firsts were with her."
Su Zhou, who was eavesdropping at the top of the stairs, blushed deeply. She thought it best not to blurt out anything so explicit.
She had no intention of eavesdropping any longer, so she washed up and lay down on the bed.
On a snowy night, Su Zhou and Xie Chi squeezed into one bed, listening to the sound of snow falling outside. Su Zhou kept talking about this.
"We will be hiring new employees next year. We don't have enough employees right now. Everyone is too busy. I hope they can have free time to do other things."
"I had considered extending the business hours, for example, by having two shifts and staying open late at night. But then I thought about it and realized that it seemed inhumane. The time before they go to sleep at night should belong to them. They can do whatever they want, such as reading, watching movies, or playing on their phones and watching dramas."
"We need even more types of animals; we still don't have enough."
I counted them, and there's quite a lot to do.
She spoke, and Xie Chi listened. Finally, Su Zhou told herself she was sleepy and drifted off to sleep. Moonlight fell on her eyelids, and Su Zhou looked very peaceful.
Xie Chi reverently placed a kiss on her forehead.
"Good night."
"Wife."
He said.
…
Three months after the New Year, Dong Qu gave birth to five panda cubs.
This is the first piece of good news in March.
Each panda cub is a healthy individual, and they are all being fed by their keepers.
The second piece of good news in March was that Su Zhou was getting married.
The wedding was held at Su Zhou's own estate, and a chef was specially hired to prepare the wedding banquet. Needless to say, the dishes at the banquet were made with the most expensive and freshest ingredients.
The guests invited to the banquet were almost all people from Suzhou.
Su Zhou's classmates and friends, Su Yunhai's friends, Wang Xingyue's friends, and the staff of Wanling Zoo.
It's a large-scale facility with a beautiful venue.
Su Zhou wore a well-tailored white dress, but not a wedding gown. She had taken several wedding photos, all abroad. Wearing a white dress was more comfortable, especially when walking on the lawn, where comfort was the most important thing.
The dress she's wearing is custom-made, costing millions, and designed by one of the top designers in the country.
Song Xinran exclaimed dramatically, "Director, your manor is so big! Is this the world of the rich?"
“My annual salary isn’t enough to buy even one square meter of land in Beijing, but the park director has such a huge estate.”
Actually, the employees' salaries are not low, but the housing prices in Beijing are just too inhuman. Even if they save every penny, it would take a long time to afford one.
Despite the arguments and noise, everyone came to offer their blessings to Su Zhou and Xie Chi's wedding.
"Alright, you guys go eat first," Su Zhou said reproachfully.
The buffet-style meal attracted a large number of guests, and the Su family's social circle was naturally extensive. Many of the guests were people they usually only saw on financial programs. Some of Su Zhou's college classmates even turned the wedding venue at the manor into a job fair hosted by Boss Zhipin.
What's even funnier is that some of these classmates actually had their top bosses among the guests.
The wedding was lively. Xie Chi, dressed in a suit, had bulging veins on his fingers. He looked tall and thin, but in reality, he had a very beautiful figure. Wearing a dark black, custom-made suit, he looked like a suit-wearing thug, with legs longer than a human life.
Just looking at Xie Chi's face, Su Zhou felt that she could forgive them even if they quarreled in the future.
Although she felt they would never argue.
There was nothing she could do; her husband was just too handsome, and as someone who was obsessed with good looks, she could only spoil him.
The wedding preparations, including now, have all been handled by Xie Chi and his parents; she herself knows nothing about it.
