Everyone played on the beach for a while. Song Miao's little face was sunburned red. Song Yi was worried that she would get heatstroke, so he pulled the two little ones away from the beach.
Song Miao was still reluctant to leave, and looked back at the beach from time to time. "Uncle, if we leave the beach now, our castle will be occupied by others later."
"The paragliding trip we have booked is about to start. Don't you want to experience the feeling of flying in the sky?" Song Yi said.
When Zheng Xiujing heard that they could go paragliding, she quickly pulled her mother to the mountain. When Song Yi went to call Zheng Chaodong and Jin Hengzhu to join them, Zheng Chaodong was a little embarrassed, "I'm a little afraid of heights, you guys can go and play, I won't go. I'll find a restaurant on the street later and make a reservation first, and we'll have dinner together tonight."
Song Yi didn't know whether Zheng Chaodong was really afraid of heights or just wanted to find an excuse to treat them to dinner. Song Yi consulted Jin's mother and Zhou Shulan for their opinions, and the two elderly people decided to go kayaking. Fortunately, Li Heni was with them, so they didn't have to worry about safety issues.
Finally, Song Yi, Kim Tae-hee, Kim Hyung-soo, Lee Jung-sook and the two little ones went to experience the paragliding project of Parasail Catalina Club together.
When the coach learned that Song Yi had passed the tandem parachute certificate exam when traveling in Hokkaido, Japan, he confidently handed over the flying job to Song Yi.
Song Yi first took the two little ones for paragliding, and Song Yi deliberately chose the sea as the landing place. The air bubble in the sea was quite comfortable in the 30-degree weather.
Zheng Xiujing's athletic ability is really developed. When she was flying in the sky, her eyes were wide open, looking at the ground 100 meters away, and giggling in the air. When Song Yi threw her into the sea in a life jacket at low altitude, she was not afraid at all, and even scooped water to have a water fight with Song Yi.
The experience was different when Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee went paragliding together. The two of them glided over Catalina Island, overlooking the entire island.
Because her boyfriend was by her side, Kim Tae-hee felt extremely safe. She felt the ocean breeze of Southern California and looked around. The crowd on the beach also saw them. The enthusiastic tourists waved to them. Kim Tae-hee noticed it and waved back.
At this time, Kim Tae-hee found a pair of seabirds flying past them. The seabirds were very recognizable, with black heads, white necks, yellow beaks, gray wings, and eyes like a pair of rubies. "Oppa, what kind of bird is this?" Kim Tae-hee couldn't help but waved at the seabirds, but the seabirds proudly didn't respond.
Song Yi observed it for a while but couldn't confirm it. "This should be a crested grebe (piti), an ornamental bird in Southern California."
"The crested crested eagle is a 'loyal love bird'. They consciously practice monogamy. Once they identify their partner, they will stay with him/her sincerely and never leave him/her for the rest of their life," Song Yi continued.
After hearing Song Yi's introduction, Jin Taixi said, "It turns out that the love of seabirds is so touching. Even birds know to choose one person to spend their lives with, let alone humans?"
When Song Yi heard what Kim Tae-hee said, his heart suddenly felt empty. Kim Tae-hee poured all her love into him, but he could only give back a fraction of it.
Kim Tae Hee seemed to sense Song Yi's guilty mood, and her tangled heart felt better. "Oppa, when we return to PV Island, shall we go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register?"
Song Yi hugged his girlfriend tightly, "Okay!"
Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee landed on a large lawn, where Kim Hyun-soo was already waiting for them.
Kim Tae Hee decided to take the two little ones back to the yacht to take a bath. She also wanted to change clothes before enjoying dinner. Song Yi looked around and asked, "Is Sister Jingshu not here yet?"
"The instructor took her flying for a short distance just now, but she seemed a little afraid of heights, so she landed early," said Kim Hyun-soo.
Song Yi was a little speechless. Since both the couple were afraid of heights, why did they bother to experience paragliding? How come Zheng Xiujing was not afraid of heights at all? Song Yi was beginning to doubt whether Zheng Xiujing was the biological daughter of Zheng Chaodong and Li Jingshu.
Zheng Chaodong went to book a restaurant, and Song Yi didn't want to leave someone else's wife behind. "Okay, I got it, Hengzhu, you go pick up Auntie and Honey, I'll take a golf cart back to the mountain, and we'll meet up on the street next to the restaurant." Song Yi instructed Jin Hengzhu.
When Song Yi returned to the paragliding camp, he noticed Li Jingshu, who was alone, "Where is your coach?"
Li Jingshu felt a little aggrieved. "The coach thought I was a little stupid and flew away with other tourists."
Song Yi was amused by Li Jingshu's words, "What do you mean by flying away with other tourists? Sister Jingshu, are you going down the mountain with me, or do you want to give it one last try? After all, it's not easy to come here, and it would be a pity not to fly."
Li Jingshu was a little embarrassed and whispered, "I'm not afraid of heights, but I'm not used to being hugged by a strange man. I wanted to wait for a female paragliding instructor, but I didn't get one for a long time."
Song Yi suddenly realized, "If you had known this earlier, you would have told me and I would have helped you communicate with the club. Where can I find a female coach for you right now?"
Li Jingshu glanced at Song Yi, and mustered up the courage to say, "Song Yi, can you take me on a flight? I saw that you just took Tae Hee and Soo Jung to fly very well."
Song Yi glanced at Li Jingshu. He didn't know whether Li Jingshu was telling the truth or a lie. Women are born liars and they won't even blink when they lie.
However, since someone has made a request, it would be a bit unkind to refuse at this time. Song Yi buckled his safety buckle, and the two began to run. Song Yi seized the opportunity and jumped into the open space with Li Jingshu. The paraglider took advantage of the wind and floated far away in an instant.
Li Jingshu looked at the tourists on Avalon Beach and felt the whistling sea breeze beside her ears. "This is what freedom feels like!"
Song Yi noticed the girlish side of Li Jingshu and couldn't help teasing her, "Your fate is in my hands at this moment. If I tell you to go east, you have to go east. If I tell you to go west, you have to go west. What kind of freedom is this?"
"Life is precious, love is more precious, but if it is for freedom, both can be abandoned. I came, I saw, I conquered!" Li Jingshu released her nature in the sky.
Song Yi thought it was very funny. He didn't expect that he would go paragliding with the female Caesar. The two little ones seemed to recognize Song Yi and Li Jingshu in the sky, and they waved to Li Jingshu at the same time while standing on the deck.
This time, Li Jingshu noticed that Song Yi almost held her in his arms. The petite Li Jingshu snuggled in Song Yi's arms like a little bird, but fortunately, Song Yi's hands were well behaved and he did not take the opportunity to take advantage of her.
Women are like this, when men behave themselves, they become much bolder. She couldn't help but tease Song Yi, "Why did you peek at my chest on the beach just now? I think Tae Hee pinched you hard."
Song Yi disagreed, "Who said I was peeking? I was looking openly. As a tourist, I can't help but stop and look at the beautiful scenery." Among the women Song Yi had come into contact with, Li Jingshu's size was just right, second only to Chen Xinyu.
Seeing Song Yi so frank, Li Jingshu felt a little embarrassed, because she knew that men would always be unable to resist observing her curvy figure. "This is not a scenic spot, where do the tourists come from?" Perhaps because they were flying at high altitude, without her husband and daughter around, Li Jingshu found that her conversation with Song Yi was a bit flirtatious.
"Really?" Song Yi's hand quietly moved up a little. People on the ground couldn't see Song Yi's movements clearly, but only Li Jingshu could sense that Song Yi was being unruly. Li Jingshu felt that Song Yi's lips seemed to be close to her ears, which made her feel itchy. "Then Sister Jingshu, is this scenic spot of yours paid or free? In addition to Brother Chaodong, has anyone else visited it?"
The reason why Li Jingshu stayed in the camp on the mountain was to bet that Song Yi would come back to find him. Song Yi was willing to pave the way for Zheng Xiujing, and as a mother, Li Jingshu wanted to express her gratitude to Song Yi alone. When she plucked up the courage to invite Song Yi to take her paragliding, she was actually ready for physical contact with Song Yi.
She felt her body go limp, and she had no strength at all. Song Yi was indeed a seasoned playboy. "You only know how to bully me. Chaodong is still waiting for us downstairs. You can't do this in front of so many people." Li Jingshu said coquettishly.
Song Yi knew that there was a long time to come and there was no need to rush. If Shin-Asia Entertainment really signed Krystal Jung, he and Lee Jung-sook would have plenty of opportunities to meet each other, so there was no need to offend the beauty now.
He adjusted the direction, turned off the powered paraglider, and when the paraglider was two or three meters away from the sea surface, he jumped into the sea with Li Jingshu.
Li Jingshu choked on the water and then crawled out of the sea. Her whole body was soaked. She turned around and found Song Yi and glared at him. This guy definitely did it on purpose.
Song Yi and Li Jingshu returned to the beach, and the staff of the Parasail Catalina Club was responsible for recovering the paraglider. Zheng Xiujing was worried about her mother and ran to Li Jingshu's side, "Mom, are you okay?"
Li Jingshu felt a little embarrassed when she thought about her daughter Zheng Xiujing seeing her being held in Song Yi's arms in the air. "It's okay. Uncle Song is very professional and has done his best to protect mom."
Kim Tae Hee was not angry when she saw her boyfriend taking other women paragliding, because she knew that this was most likely not suggested by Song Yi. "Oppa, Chaodong has booked an Italian restaurant on the island. I heard the food is pretty good. You two should go back to the yacht, take a shower, change clothes, and we'll go to the restaurant and wait for you to come together."
Song Miao and Zheng Xiujing refused to leave early. One said she wanted to wait for her uncle Song Yi and the other wanted to wait for her mother Li Jingshu. Helpless, Kim Tae-hee had to stay and then set off together.
The restaurant Zheng Chaodong booked is called Castellana. I'm not sure if the food is good, but the wine is definitely good. They have Henri Jayer wines. Any wine with his name on the label is a rare wine. There are also more than a dozen vintages of Chateau Mouton Rothschild red wine, and the Italian wines are very complete.
Zheng Chaodong noticed that his wife Li Jingshu's face was red, and he touched Li Jingshu's forehead with some concern, "Is it because of the too much sun that you have a little heatstroke?"
Li Jingshu glanced at Song Yi and quickly denied it, "It's okay, I just experienced paragliding, I was probably blown by the wind, I just need to rest for a while."
Zheng Xiujing was about to speak, "Dad, Dad, Mom just--" Before she could finish her words, Li Jingshu picked up a croissant for her and said, "You can't even shut up while eating. You're shouting in the restaurant. It's very rude."
Zheng Xiujing was very good at observing people's expressions and stopped talking immediately. Zheng Chaodong generously opened two bottles of Jayer. Although he knew it was a necessary interpersonal expense, Li Jingshu still felt a little painful.
"President Song," Zheng Chaodong just opened his mouth when he was stopped by Song Yi.
"Brother Chaodong, don't be so polite. If you continue to call me President Song, I won't be able to drink this glass of wine. Song Miao and Xiujing get along well, and we can be considered friends now. If you and Sister Jingshu call me President Song, that would be a slap in my face, and you don't have to contact me after you return to Seoul." Song Yi said.
Li Jingshu was the one who knew how to handle things. She immediately responded, "Song Yi, Tai Xi, I'm glad to meet you. I wish you happiness in the future, and a long and happy marriage."
Kim Tae Hee was very happy to hear Lee Jung Suk's blessing, and clinked glasses with Lee Jung Suk, "Thank you, Sister Jung Suk."
In fact, ice cream can also be made on the Xinya, but Song Miao thinks the ice cream in the restaurant tastes better.
When Kim Tae-hee asked her why, Song Miao said: "Eating ice cream on a yacht doesn't feel like summer. We sat in this restaurant with all its floor-to-ceiling glass doors open. We could see tourists walking on the road and the blue sea in the distance. We felt much more relaxed instantly, and even the ice cream in our hands tasted delicious."
Song Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard what Song Miao said. He touched Song Miao's cute little head and said, "You can write a travelogue of what you saw today and give it to your teacher as your summer homework. The key point is not to forget to compare your feelings when eating ice cream. This will definitely be a high-scoring essay."
"I don't want to. Why should I write an essay? Since we are going on a trip, we should have fun. Why should my happiness be discounted?" Song Miao objected.
After learning that Song Yi took Kim Tae Hee to paragliding today, Li Henri asked Song Yi: "You are so busy with work, where do you have the time to take the tandem paragliding certificate?"
Li Jingshu also looked at Song Yi. She actually wanted to ask that question just now.
"I went skiing in Hokkaido with Taixi before. There is also paragliding in Hokkaido. Taixi didn't want to be taken by the coach to play, so in order to prevent her from having any regrets, I took the time to take the exams. In almost a year, I got the A, B and C certificates. After you get the paragliding C certificate, you can start taking the tandem paragliding certificate exam." Song Yi said.
Li He Ni didn't expect that Song Yi actually went to investigate for Tae Hee. When she saw Kim Tae Hee's satisfied smile, she said, "Really? I came all the way from Seoul and I have to be shown affection by you guys. It's too much!"
At this time, Jung Soo-jung did not forget to add, "So Honey sister doesn't have a boyfriend now? Why don't you have a relationship? Is it because there are too many boys pursuing you, so you can't choose?"
Krystal's words made everyone laugh, except for Lee Ha-nui, who was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
After dinner, Song Yi, Jin Hengzhu and Zheng Chaodong went to see the casino on Catalina Island. Li Jingshu took the two children back to the beach to play, and Li Heni and Jin Taixi walked on the road beside the beach. Li Heni walked for a while, stopped, and looked at the brightly lit Xinya in a trance.
"Tae Hee, before I came to the United States, I was always worried that you would not be happy in your married life. After all, once you marry into a wealthy family, it's like being stuck in a deep sea. Ko Hyun Jung is an example. Zhou Rongzhen was able to go against his mother's wishes and marry Ko Hyun Jung. Didn't the two of them have feelings for each other at the beginning? Of course they did. But when their feelings faded, Zhou Rongzhen ruthlessly drove Ko Hyun Jung out." Li Ha Ni said.
"Marriage is a big gamble in life. If you win, everyone is happy, but if you lose, you will suffer a complete defeat. I am willing to believe Song Yi because he doesn't want me to lose." Kim Tae-hee replied.
"Look at how worthless you are. In a relationship, whoever takes the initiative is more likely to get hurt. Well, since you have made up your mind, I will not persuade you and will happily be your bridesmaid. I also believe that President Song, who is willing to spend a year to get a tandem umbrella certificate for you, will definitely not be willing to let Kim Tae-hee, the best student in the world, suffer any grievances. I just hope that you will not regret your choice in the future, and I sincerely wish you will be happy forever." Li Ha Ni said sincerely.
Song Yi didn’t know what happened that night, but Kim Tae-hee was in a good mood for the next few days.
After returning to PV Island from Catalina Island, Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee went to the PV Island Civil Affairs Bureau immediately and filled out the marriage application form on the spot.
The staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau will verify the names, places of residence, dates of birth, countries of birth, marital status and information of both parents of Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee.
After both parties confirmed the information was correct, the staff handed the marriage license and marriage certificate to Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee.
Song Yi and Kim Tae Hee need to hold a wedding ceremony. There are two types of wedding ceremonies. One is to have the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau serve as witnesses to complete the wedding ceremony; the second is to choose a church full of atmosphere and complete the wedding ceremony under the witness of the priest. Song Yi and Kim Tae Hee finally chose to hold a small wedding in the glass church.
Zheng Chaodong's family stayed as witnesses of the wedding. Zheng Xiujing and Song Miao were assigned tasks to serve as flower girls for the wedding. Although Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee's fathers were not present, the presence of Zhou Shulan and Kim's mother still made the wedding more solemn and dignified.
The priest asked Kim Tae-hee, "Ms. Kim Tae-hee, are you willing to have Mr. Song Yi as your husband and enter into a marriage contract with him? Whether in sickness or in health or otherwise, you will love him, take care of him, respect him, accept him, and be faithful to him forever until the end of your life?"
Kim Tae-hee, wearing a white wedding dress, looked at Song Yi affectionately, her eyes were firm, "I do."
The priest continued to ask Song Yi, and Song Yi said without hesitation, "I do."
The priest showed a gratified smile on his face and said, "Please ask the bride and groom to exchange tokens of love." Song Yi helped Kim Tae-hee put on her 3.29 carat pink diamond ring, and Kim Tae-hee also helped Song Yi put on a blue diamond ring.
It was the first time for Lee Ha-nui and Lee Jung-sook to see Kim Tae-hee's super pink diamond. The dazzling light from the diamond ring made it difficult for them to open their eyes.
Li Jingshu thought to herself, "It is indeed the wedding of a super-rich man. Even if the wedding ceremony is simple, the rich man will not be stingy with his money."
The priest obviously understood that the couple today were either wealthy or noble, so he smiled even more and continued to preside over the wedding process patiently.
Although some tourists came to the glass church to see Song Yi and Kim Tae Hee's wedding, the security personnel around the wedding kindly reminded them not to take photos and gave the tourists a valuable souvenir gift. Although the tourists thought that Song Yi and his friends occupied the church and were not allowed to take photos, they still forgave Song Yi for the gift.
After the wedding, Song Yi took Kim Tae Hee back to the manor in a carriage. Sitting in the carriage, Kim Tae Hee looked like a medieval princess, holding flowers in her hands and smiling. When tourists gave their blessings to Kim Tae Hee, she happily waved her bouquet in response.
Kim's mother felt very happy when she saw her second daughter got married successfully. Kim Hyung-soo understood her mother's feelings and stood by to comfort her.
Zhou Shulan felt relieved when she saw Song Yi's life event finally settled. Today is the wedding day of Kim Tae Hee and Song Yi, and as a mother-in-law, she wants to give Kim Tae Hee a gift as a compensation for changing her mind.
Song Yi held a dinner party in his private manor to entertain the guests who attended the wedding today. Song Yi and Kim Tae Hee came out together to toast Zhou Shulan, Kim's mother, Zheng Chaodong and his wife, and Li Heni one by one. Although his brother-in-law Kim Hyung Soo was not yet an adult, he also drank a glass of red wine with them. On a happy day, there is no need to care about these trivial details.
After the dinner, Song Yi returned to the bridal chamber. The bedroom had obviously been carefully decorated by his mother Zhou Shulan.
There was a wedding character pasted on the bedroom door, all the quilts in the bedroom were replaced with wedding quilts, and a circle of colorful balloons was stuck on the wall.
Song Yi looked at Jin Taixi sitting on the wedding bed and said apologetically: "My mother is from Northeast China and loves to be lively. Please forgive me if you are not satisfied with the room decoration. Next year, I will definitely give you a grand wedding."
Jin Taixi shook her head. "I think this is good. My mother-in-law told me about the patterns on the quilt. There are auspicious dragons and phoenixes, mandarin ducks playing in the water, and unicorns delivering children. It looks very festive. My mother-in-law just gave me a jade bracelet, saying that it was left to her by her mother-in-law as a compensation for my change of name. I didn't want it, but my mother-in-law insisted on giving it to me, saying that it was a family heirloom of your Song family."
Kim Tae-hee stretched out her fair wrist. The emerald green bracelet and white wrist shone against each other under the light, and the capillaries on Kim Tae-hee's wrist could be seen clearly.
Song Yi held his girlfriend's hand and said, "I am the greatest heirloom of our Song family. My mother handed me over to you as a token of her sincerity. But this bracelet is one of my mother's most precious treasures. It is an old pit ice-type bracelet and is worth some money. Since she gave it to you, just keep it. It will be nice to leave it to your daughter in the future."
Today, the priest presided over the wedding of Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee. After the priest registers it with the Civil Affairs Bureau of PV Island, Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to receive their marriage certificate.
However, this marriage certificate cannot be used directly in Korea. It needs to go through two processes. First, Song Yi and Kim Tae Hee need to take the marriage certificate to PV Island for notarization. The marriage certificate notarized by the municipal government also needs to be certified by the US Department of State.
After the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has certified it, it will then be double certified by the Korean Embassy in the United States. After completing the above steps, Song Yi and Kim Tae-hee's marriage certificate can be used as material to exchange for a Korean marriage certificate with the same legal effect at the Korean marriage registration department.
Because Kim Tae Hee and Song Yi will hold another formal wedding next year, but the two are not in a hurry to renew their marriage certificates. Their marriage registration in the United States itself is legally binding, and from today on, Kim Tae Hee is Song Yi's legal wife.
"Do you know what day it is today?" Song Yi asked Kim Tae-hee.
Kim Tae-hee looked at her phone and said, "Isn't today, August 15th, Liberation Day?" South Korea got rid of Japanese colonial rule on August 15, 1945, so they designated August 15 as Liberation Day. The South Korean president will deliver a Liberation Day speech every August 15th.
"In addition to the Liberation Day, today is the seventh day of the seventh month in the Chinese lunar calendar, which is the Chinese Valentine's Day. In our mythology, the Chinese Valentine's Day is the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet once a year, and it is also known as the Chinese Valentine's Day. In the future, we can regard the Chinese Valentine's Day as our wedding anniversary." Song Yi suggested.
Jin Tae-hee naturally had no objection, but when she noticed the burning look in Song Yi's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little shy. "Don't look at me like that, it feels like you want to eat me."
Song Yi had actually been looking forward to this day for a long time. "You are the little lamb that I have fattened up. I will first raise you until you are plump and white, and then I will swallow you up bite by bite."
In fact, Kim Tae Hee had already prepared to give herself completely to Song Yi. She was ready to take off her wedding dress and turn off the lights to rest early. "Oppa, how about we turn off the lights and rest early?"
Song Yi was unwilling to let Kim Tae Hee go, "Why turn off the lights? There's no one else in this room. Today is our wedding night, no one would be so tactless as to disturb us. Let's not turn off the lights yet, I want to see how white Tae Hee looks under her wedding dress."
Jin Taixi rolled her eyes at Song Yi and said, "Oppa, you've just gotten married and you're already showing your true colors and acting so frivolous? If you don't turn off the lights, what if Miaomiao comes over and ruins your good fortune?"
Song Yi knew that Song Miao would sleep with his grandmother Zhou Shulan tonight. Zhou Shulan would never let Song Miao run around. The old lady wanted to have her grandson as soon as possible, so how could she ruin Song Yi's plan?
Jin Taixi closed his eyes tightly, put his hands on his chest, and asked Song Yi, "Oppa, will you be good to me forever?"
Song Yi looked at Jin Taixi's chest heaving, and stopped smiling. "I will, I will treat Taixi well for the rest of my life."
When Kim Tae-hee heard Song Yi say this, her heart suddenly calmed down and she put her hands aside. She was inexperienced and still needed Song Yi's guidance.
Thank you for your monthly tickets. I will try to write another chapter in the evening.
(End of this chapter)
