Chapter 28 Chapter 28 · Wedding (End) “I love you too,…
After a long time.
Only a sigh was heard.
When Hoss heard Xu Wen sigh, his whole body stiffened and his back straightened. He moved his mouth and opened it, wanting to say something, but for the first time in his life, he hated himself so much for not being good at saying nice things.
Hoss hadn't meant to upset Huven.
——This should have been a happy and heartwarming moment, but he ruined it.
"I……"
Hoss didn't know what to say, he just looked up at the male insect, and his expression even showed a bit of helplessness.
Xu Wen stood up and stood there, looking at Huos quietly, pursed his lips, and also did not speak.
The worldview of humans and that of Zerg society are very different.
Xu Wen is a very typical modern man. He has endless energy and youth. He is willing to respect others, listen to their ideas, and resolutely resist all decadent ideas.
Who doesn’t have imagination about love?
He also had a very simple imagination about love. The other person must be a gentle and patient person. When the other person smiles, Xiu Wen will want to laugh with him. If that person is sad, Xiu Wen will also feel heartbroken.
However, when he really met love, Xiu Wen realized:
Love is not simple, but extremely complicated. It is so complicated that, unlike every question that has a standard answer, love does not have a standard answer.
When he fell in love with Hoss three years ago, Xu Wen truly experienced what it felt like to fall in love. He had experienced the longing for love and the torment of love.
Waited for three years.
Three years, that's how a tree blooms and bears fruit three times.
During these three years, there were many noble females who extended olive branches to him, but Xiu Wen rejected them all.
For Xu Wen, accepting someone else's pursuit when he is in love is an extremely immoral thing.
Even before getting married, Xu Wen would not accept other female insects, let alone now that he and Huos have confirmed their relationship and are about to get married.
Yes, that's right, Zerg marriage is different from marriage in the human world.
However, Xiu Wen will always remember that he is a human being, a human being who was born in the spring breeze and grew up under the red flag.
Equality is the most faithful hymn of mankind.
Xu Wen will never forget it.
"Brother, this may sound strange to you,"
Xu Wen squatted down and looked straight at Huos who was leaning on the bed.
"But, in my hometown, if we get married, then the marriage is between you and me, and no one else will interfere.
No matter if it's five, ten or twenty years, as long as we don't get divorced, I will only love you and you will only love me."
"?"
When he heard this, although Hoss was a little surprised, he still looked at Xiu Wen in confusion.
It seems that I don't quite understand why the male insect mentioned his hometown.
"So, for me, this is my principle. I will not let anyone interfere in our marriage. My brother and I both need to maintain basic loyalty to our partners."
Hugh Wen put it as vividly as possible,
"If someone tries to interfere with our marriage, I will rush over and beat him up without mercy, no matter if he's attracted to me or me."
"...Xiu Wen, what I just said is true, so you don't have to say these words to appease—"
Hoss opened his mouth, and after a long while, he finally heard his own voice.
But when he finally spoke, he was interrupted by the male insect.
"Brother, that's not the case."
Xu Wen looked at Huo Si very persistently.
"What I said is true, brother should believe me, right?"
"Brother, you should believe that I will love you forever. I have so many things I want to do with you, and I only want to do them with you."
"There are so many things to do that I feel like a lifetime is too short. How can we have time for other guys?"
Hearing this, Xu Wen's tone softened, and the expression on Hoss's face also softened. With tolerance and helplessness in his eyes, he rubbed the male insect's hair.
"Thank you for saying that."
Even if it's just some sweet talk before marriage, even if it's just to coax him, it's hard not to be happy when hearing such words, no matter who says it.
Xiu Wen felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.
When you fall in love with an older person, you can enjoy their tenderness and tolerance, as well as their indulgence towards the younger ones, but you also need to endure their stubbornness and their temper as hard as a rock.
But these themselves coexist.
"Actually, if you're willing to listen to my promise, I can say it every day. I'd feel happy if I said it a thousand times or ten thousand times."
Xiu Wen shook his head helplessly.
"It's just that now it seems like Brother would rather watch my actions."
"Brother, do you know? I secretly ordered rings for both of us. A few nights ago, while you were asleep, I even measured the circumference of your ring finger."
"ring?"
Hoss was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
"For weddings? Rings are rarely used in weddings these days."
Exchanging rings is an ancient Zerg ritual. At that time, the male-to-female ratio had not reached such an exaggerated level. Most male Zergs were also strong and had a high survival rate.
Now, due to the changes in the marriage system, few Zergs would choose things like rings. After all, a Zerg only has ten fingers. If you marry more than twenty, the rings and fingers will not match.
And even after getting married, Jin'er and Amiya, Ian and Hedis chose not to wear rings.
"Ah, I know. So in my brother's eyes, I might become a more old-fashioned and traditional person."
Xiu Wen smiled helplessly.
"How could that be?" Hoss denied it immediately.
"It doesn't matter even if it is. I'll just be a conservative guy."
Having said that, Xiu Wen was somewhat glad that he actually wore the ring.
Because he also imagined the scene of giving the ring at home, at the same time, he was somewhat fortunate that the home clothes he chose had pockets.
The small red velvet box lay quietly in his right trouser pocket.
Xiu Wen reached out and touched it, holding it tightly in his hand.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and, under Hoss's gaze, opened his palm, revealing the small red velvet box.
He said:
"Actually, when I bought it, it came with one ring in a box, but I told the seller I wanted to put two rings in one box, just like you and I in our home in the future."
Under Hoss's astonished gaze, Xiu Wen gently opened the lid of the box.
Two dazzling platinum rings come into view. They lie there quietly, like two carefully carved stars, sparkling with low-key and elegant light in the soft light.
On the inside of each ring, two small names "Hawes & Xuwen" are engraved
——Hoss’s name is “Hawes” and Xuwen’s name is “Xuwen”.
Huven picked up one of the rings, grabbed Hoss's hand, and placed it in his palm.
He then picked up the remaining ring and held it in the air towards Hoss.
The male insect's eyes were sincere and genuine, filled with intense love and overflowing enthusiasm:
"Brother, I want to spend the rest of my life with you, are you willing? Be with me, just the two of us."
The moment Huos saw Xu Wen take out the ring, his whole mind was a little confused. He had never experienced anything romantic, so at this moment, Huos didn't even know what expression to make.
However, one thing is certain, he will never refuse Xiu Wen.
The answer is almost obvious.
"good."
In his life, Hoss had made countless forced choices and decisions, but there had never been one that made him so eager and eager to agree to it.
Outside the window, the sky is like a rolling sea of clouds, magnificent and majestic. The sunlight penetrates the thick clouds, like golden gauze pouring down from the cracks in the sky.
It's like the most beautiful layer of gold foil on a wedding invitation.
Inside the house, the platinum rings on the ring fingers of Hugh Wen and Hoss sparkled brightly, and the names engraved on the inside of the rings seemed so hot that they were about to boil their blood.
———
Five days later.
It was the wedding of Hugo and Hoss.
As originally planned, their wedding was held at the Cathedral of Light.
The wedding of the commander of the First Army invited many senior military officers. The room was packed with guests and it was very lively.
The entire church is decorated like a dream, with blue and white as the main colors.
Under the dome, the azure sky seems to be cleverly brought into the room, contrasting with the blue satin and tulle carefully arranged in the church. White lilies and light blue hydrangeas are scattered among them, and the soft light shines through the exquisite crystal chandeliers.
As the melodious music slowly sounded, the holy and solemn melody echoed in the church. In the presence of relatives and friends, Hoss and Xu Wen walked shoulder to shoulder and slowly entered the palace of marriage.
Hoss and Hugh Wen were wearing neatly tailored, spotless white groom's suits, with collars and cuffs cleverly inlaid with fine gold edges.
Hoss rarely wears light-colored clothes, but this white looks distinct and sacred on him.
Xu Wen also likes to wear light-colored clothes in daily life. He seems to be born to suit lively and clean colors. It can be seen that Xu Wen is so happy today. He has been laughing and is happy from the bottom of his heart.
Under the guidance of the pastor, they solemnly exchanged vows.
Huos is usually serious and looks very fierce when he is not smiling, but at this moment, he seems particularly gentle and pious.
"My lord."
He slowly knelt on one knee, clenched his right fist, and gently placed it on his left chest - that was where his heart beat strongest. He was not good at speaking, but it seemed as if he wanted to convey all his passion and love to the other person without reservation through this simple action.
"I will give you my life, my blood, everything I have. My heart will beat only for you. I will be loyal to you and love you until the end of my life and until death comes."
When taking the oath, Hoss's voice was low and powerful. Under the witness of the priest, the oath seemed to be endowed with divine power.
In the Zerg marriage ceremony, the male does not need to swear an oath to the female, he only needs to accept the female's oath.
Xiu Wen lowered his head, reached out and pulled up his female monarch, and told Huo Si very solemnly:
"I love you till death do us part."
The wedding march was still playing.
In the elegantly decorated guest seats,
The front row.
Today was an important occasion, and Xirui had dutifully changed into a neat suit with smooth lines on the lapels, which made his usual casualness look more formal and solemn.
President Jin sat on Xirui's left, and the seat on Xirui's right was empty.
When President Jin attended such a happy event, he still had that indifferent expression, as if he was unshakable.
After the oath is taken.
The entire venue erupted in applause, and Xirui and President Jin also raised their hands and applauded at the same time.
Xirui tilted his head slightly, approached President Jin, and spoke quietly:
"Cousin, why aren't you seeing my sister-in-law? You're married now, so why aren't you sitting with your wife like Ian? Why are you sitting in the singles section? Are you being so kind as to come and keep me company?"
Xirui lowered his voice, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
Amiya had just had a fight with Jin'er two days ago, so how could she come today?
Jin Er frowned and warned:
"Take care of yourself first. You haven't had enough live streaming time lately, have you?"
Xirui: “…cough cough.”
Playing games is indeed Xirui's hobby, but when this hobby becomes a job that is urged by his cousin, it becomes a bit painful.
Signing a contract and not signing a contract are indeed two different things.
What's more, when Xirui was still in President Jin's previous company, he was simply responsible for eating with Xiu Wen, slacking off all day, and did not do any work. Now he has to take the lead.
At this moment, Xirui really wanted to get Louis into the company, but unfortunately, Boss Perlans got there first - but he heard that the contract would expire soon, and just now, at the door, Louis saw Boss Perlans hiding.
Come to think of it, Louis used to be a model worker in their company.
With Louis around, everything is arranged clearly and accurately.
The achievements created are beyond reach.
Why.
……Um?
That's not right. Where's Louis?
Wasn’t it there just now???
Xirui suddenly realized that there was an empty seat next to him. Louis had gotten up and left without him noticing.
Okay, okay, we finally got together as a group of five, but you just ran away before you even had a sip of wine?
at the same time.
The back door of the Cathedral of Light.
The male insect in a gray suit was walking anxiously in the empty corridor.
In his arms, he was holding tightly a thin sub-female woman in a silver-white suit. Her face was as pale as paper, her eyes were closed, and her lips were trembling slightly, as if she was enveloped by a layer of icy chill. Her whole body was shaking uncontrollably, and she wished she could curl up like a shrimp.
—Perrance is ill.
The guy that Xirui was secretly criticizing in his heart was right here. The male insect in the gray suit was Louis, and the person in his arms was the big boss Perrance.
Louis clenched his teeth. He felt the cold sweat of Perrance in his arms, and his heart became extremely anxious.
Louis walked through the doorways and ran towards the outdoor parking lot with Pearlance in his arms.
Outdoor parking lot,
Rows of aircraft were lined up silently under the dim light. Louis's eyes searched quickly and finally found Perlans's streamlined aircraft in the silver-white.
Without a moment's hesitation, Louis quickly stepped forward, pushed open the door of the aircraft, and carefully carried Perrance to the spacious and comfortable seat.
"Louis..."
Perrance frowned and groaned, his face pale, his long silver hair hanging down on his shoulders in a mess, and his pair of gold-rimmed glasses were crooked on his nose. Behind the glasses, his deep eyes were tightly closed, and his long eyelashes trembled - he was in so much pain that he didn't even have the strength to open his eyes.
His hands pressed tightly against his abdomen, his fingers beneath the snow-white gloves twitching from the pain in his abdomen.
Pearlance was just talking nonsense, trying to beg, but now he didn't know what to beg for. He couldn't even speak complete sentences and could only call out a name.
"...I'm here, let's go to the hospital right away."
From Louis's perspective, Perrance's skin was white and almost transparent, like the frost covering the branches after the first snow of early winter, which was now about to break with pain.
At this moment, Perlance curled up due to stomach pain. There was even an obvious footprint on his white suit on his abdomen - it was obvious that he had been kicked.
Perrance's hands were now pressed tightly against his abdomen, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force, as if he was trying to relieve the heart-wrenching pain.
A hand that was slightly larger than Perrance's hand covered his hand, and through the thin cloth of the glove, it brought the only warmth to Perrance who was covered in cold sweat.
Next second.
The roar of the engine instantly broke the surrounding tranquility. The silver-white aircraft suddenly accelerated and disappeared from sight in a few seconds.
