Upon receiving Zhu Qianying's reply, Yan Shao curled his lips into a captivating smile that could instantly charm anyone.
"Yes, that's right, I'm here!"
For many people, saying such things might just be a casual remark, without any binding force.
But Zhu Qianying knew that Yan Shao's words represented a promise.
A promise to stay together, to never be apart.
Her smile widened, her gaze shifting from his handsome face to a firm and fearless stare straight ahead.
Even though she knew the road ahead wouldn't be smooth, as long as this man was by her side, she had nothing to fear.
To match the adorable little princess behind them, Zhu Qianying and Yan Shao walked very slowly in perfect unison.
Ever since Yan Shao told Zai Zai that he wanted to hold a grand wedding for his mother, Zai Zai has secretly rehearsed with Xiao Xiao at home many times.
But Xiaoxiao is still a little one who is not even a year old. She is not very steady on her feet yet. Now, with the weight on her skirt, she inevitably sways with every step, like a drunk person doing drunken boxing.
The parents deliberately slowed their pace ahead, and the little girl only used one hand to hold up her skirt, freeing the other hand to hold her small arm.
Little Chaozi smiled briefly and tugged at his brother's clothes with his chubby little hands.
"Little one, don't be afraid, your brother is here!"
Of course, Zai Zai couldn't hear his dad and mom's conversation, but he always had the thought and the will to protect his little sister.
"Hmm..." Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded heavily at him.
The family of four walked very slowly, but the guests showed no signs of impatience. Most of them were taking photos with their phones. It was rare to see such a good-looking family of four, especially one that was so famous. It would be a waste not to take some photos or videos to post on social media to show off.
The wedding march played several times before Yan Shao finally led Zhu Qianying to the front of the stage. However, instead of immediately ascending the main stage, he and Zhu Qianying turned around together to look at their two children.
Although her older brother was supporting her, the little girl was a bit exhausted from carrying the weight all the way. She was now leaning against her brother, panting heavily.
"Sweeties, are you going back to your grandparents' house, or are you coming on stage with us?"
As Yan Shao asked about his children, Zhu Qianying squatted down and gave her son and daughter a kiss each.
"Of course we'll go together!" Zizai answered matter-of-factly.
Little Xiao, leaning against him, nodded frantically with her bright, watery eyes.
Since his son and daughter both wanted to go up together, Yan Shao naturally respected their opinion. He bent down and picked up his precious daughter, while holding Zhu Qianying's hand with his other hand.
Zhu Qianying took Zizai's hand, and the family of four walked hand in hand to the main stage.
What a happy family!
The host, who had been reluctant to interrupt the loving interaction between the family of four, finally spoke up with a sigh.
Yan Shao and Zhu Qianying smiled and said "thank you" to her. Then, they walked hand in hand to the center of the stage, put Xiao Xiao down, and the family of four stood together.
"Today is the seventh wedding anniversary of Young Master Yan and Mrs. Yan, but what we see is a loving couple like newlyweds, which is really torturing this single dog like me. I really want to get married right after this event, but unfortunately, there is only one Young Master Yan, and I am not Mrs. Yan."
The host's words caused Zhu Qianying and Yan Shao to exchange a glance, and a knowing smile appeared on their faces at the same time.
"Seven years ago today, Young Master Yan and Mrs. Yan made a promise to each other to stay together for life and never leave each other. Seven years later, do Young Master Yan and Mrs. Yan have anything to say or promise to each other?"
Yan Shao took the microphone from the host, first looked at Zhu Qianying, and then looked at the guests present.
"First of all, thank you all for coming and for gracing us with your presence. Thank you for witnessing my marriage and relationship with my wife all the way."
"Of course, most importantly, I want to thank my wife, Zhu Qianying, for giving me wonderful love and a pair of lovely children, allowing me to have a happy family that others envy."
As Yan Shao spoke, he turned slightly to face Zhu Qianying and said affectionately.
"Wife, I love you!"
Wow! ...So cheesy!
"Give me a kiss! Give me a kiss!"
"Give me a kiss...give me a kiss..."
The crowd below was in an uproar. Yan Shao smiled and slowly leaned closer. Zhu Qianying glared at him with a slightly annoyed expression, thinking he would leave. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, her lips were sealed by his warm lips.
The kiss lasted quite a while, so long that the guests in the audience who were counting became increasingly excited, "361...362...363..."
Zhu Qianying's head was spinning, and all she could hear was the deafening counting. At first, she tried to resist, but after being kissed for so long, she was severely oxygen-deprived and could only lean on him and let him do as he pleased.
"399!"
Yan Shao only released her after the guests counted to 399.
"Wow, Young Master Yan is such a domineering CEO! And Mrs. Yan is also a successful woman, but she looks like a happy little wife. I'm so envious!"
The host's narration made Zhu Qianying, who was leaning against Yan Shao, wish she could bury her face in Yan Shao's arms forever!
The host said a lot of sentimental things, while Zhu Qianying gradually returned to normal.
"Everyone must be wondering what gift Young Master Yan gave to Mrs. Yan, right? Well... this cruise ship we're on right now is Young Master Yan's seventh anniversary gift to Mrs. Yan!"
A collective gasp of envy and amazement rose from the audience once again.
Zhu Qianying, the recipient of the gift, only learned of this at this moment, and a look of surprise flashed across her face.
Yan Shao noticed her suspicion, leaned closer, and whispered in her ear, "Wife, do you like it?"
Zhu Qianying never imagined that she would own a cruise ship one day. However, since she got together with Yan Shao, it seems that many impossibilities have become possible.
"Yes, I like it!"
As soon as Zhu Qianying finished responding, she saw the host hand her the microphone.
"Alright, let's hear what Mrs. Yan has to say to Young Master Yan."
Zhu Qianying took the microphone, thought for a moment, and said.
"Thank you to my husband, he gave me what I've always dreamed of—tender love and understanding! Thank you also for giving me two smart and adorable children, and for giving me a warm and loving family. Husband, I love you too!"
Neither Zhu Qianying nor Yan Shao are people who like to say "I love you" all the time, but not saying it doesn't mean they're afraid to say it.
Whether it was Zhu Qianying or Yan Shao, when they said "I love you," they looked each other in the eyes. It wasn't a show; it was a heartfelt statement from the bottom of their hearts.
After Zhu Qianying finished speaking, she raised her hand to wrap around Yan Shao's neck, stood on tiptoe, and gave Yan Shao a solid kiss.
Young Master Yan, who always takes the lead, is enjoying the kiss his wife gives him in public.
This kiss was much shorter than the previous 399-second kiss. When Zhu Qianying released Yan Shao, the man opened his eyes, which were filled with regret.
Clearly, he felt the kiss was too short!
Zhu Qianying smiled at him with her eyebrows curved, and her hand, without him noticing, took his left hand.
Yan Shao was slightly taken aback. He lowered his eyes and stared at his long, slender fingers, which were empty. A surge of anticipation welled up in his heart, but he was also afraid that he was just being presumptuous and thinking too much.
Zhu Qianying's fair fingers gently traced his ring finger, and she sighed softly, "I always feel like something's missing..."
“Yes…” Yan Shao was delighted. He looked up at her, wanting to say something, when suddenly a cold sensation came from the tip of his left ring finger.
Looking down again, I saw a very elegant ring on my ring finger.
"Ying'er..." Young Master Yan was too excited to say anything more.
Zhu Qianying opened her palm, and on it lay a woman's ring.
Yan Shao was just excited; his comprehension and action were not affected in any way. He quickly picked up the ring and grabbed her left hand.
However, the usually shrewd and commanding Young Master Yan held her hand tightly, his fingers trembling for a while before he managed to slip the ring onto her ring finger. When the ring was securely on her finger, Zhu Qianying heard Young Master Yan let out a long sigh.
Just as Zhu Qianying was about to mutter a complaint to him, Yan Shao took her left hand in his left hand, their fingers intertwined, palms touching, just like their hearts touching.
Zhu Qianying lifted the two people's tightly clasped hands in front of her eyes, glanced at the fruits of her hard work over the past few months, turned her head, and asked with a smile, "Young Master?"
"Honey, is there anything we still need?"
Yan Shao looked deeply at their tightly clasped hands, then lowered his head and kissed her lips. "With you, I lack nothing!"
...
At the end of the year, to save trouble, Yanhuang Group and Hanzhiying Studio jointly held their annual meeting.
During the meeting, there was a Q&A session, and the person the host randomly selected to answer was Yan Shao.
Yan Shao sat with Zhu Qianying, and today he also brought his family members, namely Zizai and Xiaoxiao, who were sitting on his laps.
Following Yan Shao's choice, the host turned to question number three.
"Young Master Yan, let me ask you a very mundane question."
Young Master Yan nodded. "Please speak."
"If you were sent to a desert island, but could only bring one thing or one person, what would you choose?"
Yan Shao turned his head and looked at Zhu Qianying affectionately. "Is there even a question? Of course I'm bringing my wife!"
Before the host could say anything sentimental, the little boy sitting on his lap immediately pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Hmph, Daddy, what about me and my sister?"
Yan Shao glanced at Zhu Qianying again, then looked down at Zizai and Xiaoxiao, and then reached out his big hands to rub the heads of the two little ones.
"Fool, you and your sister will naturally have the most important person in your lives to take you to the deserted island. Mommy and I are just passersby in your lives."
