Chapter 206 Extra Chapter 1: The Wedding (The End)
As the emcee announced the announcement, under the watchful eyes of the entire audience, Wenxi, arm in arm with Shang Chen, walked step by step to the center of the stage.
When it came to the oath-taking ceremony, the two stood facing each other.
Shang Chen said in a low voice, "Xi Xi, are you crying?"
Wenxi thought of many things in an instant and immediately realized that Shang Chen had misunderstood.
"Yeah, I just chatted with my brother for a while."
"Are you nervous?"
Wen Xi glanced at Shang Chen again: "It's alright."
Shang Chen, with a serious face, said earnestly, "I'm very nervous."
This conversation sounds familiar.
Wen Xi suppressed a laugh and stared at Shang Chen for a moment, "I really couldn't tell."
Shang Chen possessed a mature and composed demeanor, with a dignified and solemn air about him.
He was a perfect match for the wedding venue, showing no signs of nervousness whatsoever.
Before you know it, you're going through the process.
The emcee excitedly announced, "Please, groom, kiss the bride!"
Shang Chen remained standing still, without making a move, his dark eyes fixed on Wen Xi.
Wenxi: "?"
The emcee was also taken aback for a moment, but quickly smiled and said, "It seems our groom is quite reserved."
The audience burst into laughter.
Wenxi couldn't help but laugh too, and stood on tiptoe to kiss Shang Chen.
Excitement filled the air around me.
Afterwards, Wenxi whispered in Shang Chen's ear with a smile, "I could tell you were very nervous."
Shang Chen tightened his grip on her waist. "Aren't you nervous?"
It was a very calm sentence, but Shang Chen managed to make it sound like he was feeling wronged.
Before Wenxi could even speak, the emcee, microphone in hand, jokingly said, "It seems our bride and groom have a very good relationship. Here, we wish this loving couple a long and happy life together!"
The two had been hugging for too long, and if the emcee didn't say anything, it would become a laughing stock.
Wenxi was unusually embarrassed, and Shang Chen pretended to be calm and let go.
Then the parents went up on stage to serve tea.
As they stepped off the stage, Wenxi, holding Shang Chen's hand, looked back and her heart stirred slightly.
Before going on stage, she thought the wedding was just a ceremony to satisfy worldly social customs.
But when she looked back at her family and loved ones, she realized that this wedding was a visualization of love.
Amidst applause and cheers, Jiang Zheng wept with tears in his eyes.
Bai Wei was also moved to tears. Just as she was about to grab some tissues, she discovered that all the tissues on the table were used up.
She turned around and saw Jiang Zheng sobbing: "...Anyone who didn't know better would think you were Wen Lu's younger brother."
Bai Wei glanced at Yan Xu, who was sitting at the next table with a gloomy and unhappy expression.
When Wen Lu got married, her own brother didn't react at all, but Jiang Zheng was crying his eyes out.
Jiang Zheng: "Who wants to be her younger brother?!"
Bai Wei clicked her tongue twice: "If you're in so much pain, why go up and give me the wedding ring?"
"Isn't this what flower girls and boys should do?"
As far as Bai Wei knew, Jiang Zheng had requested the task of delivering the wedding ring.
Jiang Zheng: "You don't understand."
"I want to see my favorite girl get married with my own eyes..."
Bai Wei felt a little nauseous from the sweet talk and couldn't help but shudder: "Ew, the thought process of someone in love is really hard to understand."
Wenxi changed into a red, fitted fishtail dress, put her long hair up, and followed Shang Chen to offer toasts.
First, toast the elders, then go to the relatives.
Shang Chen's gaze fell on Wen Zhou, and he called out, "Big Brother," while holding his wine glass.
Wen Zhou also picked up his wine glass and smiled.
Shang Chen shifted his gaze and saw the figure next to Wen Zhou, his movements momentarily stunned.
Wen Zhou seemed to see through everything and explained calmly, "This is my cousin Xixi, Ning Mo."
"He used to treat Xixi like his own sister."
Shang Chen: "...Hello, cousin."
Ning Mo is the fifth person in the photo that Wen Zhou sent over!
Shang Chen turned around and glanced at Wen Xi.
Wenxi smiled back, a hint of mischief in her eyes: "Honey, do you look familiar?"
Shang Chen: "..."
Ning Mo smiled and said, "What, brother-in-law, have you seen me before?"
Ning Mo moved abroad with her parents at a young age and hasn't returned to China for many years.
Wenxi: "My brother showed Shang Chen the photos we took together back then."
Ning Mo understood and laughed, "Looks like you're jealous."
Shang Chen: "..."
Wenxi saw that photo by chance.
She hadn't seen the words written on the back of the photo and was unaware of her brother's shady dealings.
But Shang Chen never hides his jealousy. Wen Xi was coaxing Shang Chen back then without explaining, just waiting for today.
The wedding ended at 10 p.m.
After taking a shower, Wenxi sat on the bed applying body lotion, her eyes drooping with sleepiness.
When Shang Chen came out, she suddenly became a little more sober.
Wen Xi smiled and asked, "Husband?"
Shang Chen looked at her, his Adam's apple bobbing: "Aren't you tired today?"
Wenxi saw the desire in his eyes: "..."
I've never seen him in such a hurry before.
Wenxi said lazily, "My feet hurt."
Shang Chen approached, squatted down in front of Wen Xi, and placed her feet on his knees: "Are your feet uncomfortable? I see you've been standing in high heels all day today."
The next second, Wen Xi pulled her foot out and lightly stepped on Shang Chen's shoulder.
Her smile deepened: "Mr. Shang, shall we talk?"
After the wedding, it's time to settle the accounts.
Shang Chen asked without changing his expression, "What are you talking about?"
My brother-in-law is the type who can't stand being taken advantage of, so he's probably already complained to Wenxi about it.
Wenxi: "When did you learn about the scoring system?"
Shang Chen: "Very early."
Wen Xi: "?!"
Shang Chen was just old-fashioned, not stupid.
Besides, Wenxi hadn't deliberately hidden the fact that the scoring system was in place.
Even when she was chatting with Wen Zhou, Shang Chen could catch glimpses of the messages with just a casual glance.
Wenxi: "So you've been watching me make a fool of myself?"
Shang Chen held Wen Xi's ankle and gently massaged it. "It's not about watching a show, it's about having some fun."
The man's dark eyes were deep and unfathomable: "Before this, I didn't know that Xixi was so good at serving water."
"Is this what people call a 'master of impartiality' online?"
Wenxi: "..."
We've been turned on instead?
The large hand that landed on the ankle moved upwards, and the lower leg was pulled down onto Shang Chen's shoulder.
He suddenly stood up, as if a mountain had collapsed.
Wenxi was forced to lie in bed.
Shang Chen looked down at her, exuding a sense of oppression, but his tone was unusually low and gentle: "Xi Xi, tonight is our wedding night."
Wenxi simply gave up and lay on the bed, saying, "...I don't want to move."
After careful consideration, Shang Chen said in a deep voice, "Then I'll make the move?"
In the middle of the night, Wenxi rested her hands on Shang Chen's chest, sweat dripping from her cheeks down her neck.
At the last moment, she leaned weakly against Shang Chen's chest.
"I'm out of energy."
Shang Chen hugged her and suddenly asked, "Xi Xi, do you love me now?"
Wenxi smiled weakly and replied, "Love."
Shang Chen took a deep breath, remained silent for a long time, and then solemnly kissed the corner of her lips.
I love you too, very much.
Wenxi smiled.
After the wedding, Wenxi and Shangchen both returned to their normal work.
Shang Chen went on a major business trip and stayed away for more than a month.
Once back in China, she became quite clingy.
Just as winter was approaching in Beijing, he took Wenxi to Australia to sail a yacht.
Shang Chen said with a serious face: "You promised to take me on a yacht back then."
"Xixi, you can't break your promise."
Wenxi: "Go away!"
She's already quite adept at appeasing her husband.
After arriving in Australia, the two went out to sea on a nice day.
After the yacht had been sailing for a while, Wenxi stopped caring and lay on the deck sunbathing.
Shang Chen only stepped out of the cabin after he had finished studying how to operate the yacht.
He had deep-set eyes and a steady gait.
He was wearing a casual shirt and dress pants, which was a rare sight as he was no longer so serious.
"What are you looking at?" Shang Chen: "Looking at things under the sun is bad for your eyes."
Wenxi lay on her back, holding a light green piece of paper in her hand.
Wenxi moved the letter aside, revealing half of her delicate face. She was wearing sunglasses, looking both cool and beautiful.
She smiled and said, "Look at my heavy love letters."
Shang Chen was taken aback and took two steps to the side before noticing a pile of envelopes next to Wen Xi.
They were all love letters he wrote to Wenxi.
Shang Chen paused for a moment: "Why did you bring all of these?"
Wenxi thought about it carefully: "I want to appreciate it properly."
The couple was too busy with work to go on their honeymoon.
This trip abroad only lasted a few days, so it was a rare opportunity for rest.
Wenxi also cherished this hard-won quiet time.
She tilted her head to look at Shang Chen: "How many more letters are you planning to write?"
A sea breeze blew by, and Shang Chen stood ramrod straight. "I don't know."
Wen Xi smiled and said, "I'm still waiting for your last love letter."
Shang Chen asked, puzzled, "Why?"
Wenxi smiled but remained silent.
The stack of letter paper that Shang Ze ordered for him was probably about a hundred sheets.
Shang Chen doesn't know when he will be able to write the last page.
How could we possibly find her love letters if we didn't write the last one?
Shang Shen looked up at the sky. "Xi Xi, don't you think the weather is nice today?"
Wenxi: "Hmm?"
Shang Chen: "Don't waste good time."
The next second, Shang Chen picked up Wen Xi and walked inside.
Wenxi hooked her arms around his neck and rewarded President Shang with a kiss.
"really."
"I look forward to Mr. Shang's performance."
Shang Chen: "..."
It seems he still needs to keep up with the times.
At least next time, I should flirt with Wenxi first.
After returning to the capital, the first heavy snow fell.
Wenxi had just gotten out of the car when Shang Chen called her back.
He took off his coat and wrapped it around Wenxi, saying in a deep voice, "You see it's snowing? Why don't you slow down?"
Wenxi: "Won't you be cold if you walk slowly?"
"Besides, it's only a short walk, I'll be home in a minute."
Shang Chen didn't say anything more. He went into the house and urged Wenxi to go upstairs to take a bath. He also made brown sugar ginger tea for Wenxi to warm her up.
After taking a shower, Wenxi held a steaming cup of brown sugar ginger tea and said with a smile, "The ginger flavor is a bit weak. Has President Shang improved?"
She will never forget the first time she drank the brown sugar ginger tea that Shang Chen brewed and the half-garbage can of ginger.
In the winter of the second year after their marriage, Wenxi's plane landed in Beijing, and she had to transfer to another plane to Jiangbei immediately.
While waiting for my flight, a blizzard was approaching, and the temperature plummeted.
Flight delays and snow-blocked roads left Wenxi stranded at the airport.
Shang Chen, who lives far away in Jiangnan, drove thousands of miles to the airport, carrying a pair of shoes and a coat.
Wenxi was focused on processing the documents.
I looked up and was instantly stunned.
What are you doing here?!
Shang Chen's expression remained calm as he said in a deep voice, "Xi Xi, put on your coat."
He knelt on one knee in front of Wenxi and put on her shoes as if no one else was around.
People come and go at the airport, all just passing through.
Shang Chen was on a business trip in Jiangnan when he suddenly received news that the temperature in the capital had dropped.
He knew Wenxi's itinerary and was worried that she would catch a cold and fall ill, so he specially drove over.
She can't feel the cold, so he will feel it for her.
...
When Wenxi was twenty-eight years old, he became a partner of Zhongda.
She got pregnant at thirty, a pleasant surprise.
The daughter's nickname came from a joke between the couple.
"Your nickname is Chenchen, so how about we name our daughter Qingqing if we have one in the future?"
Shang Chen was still in the midst of the joy of Wen Xi's pregnancy when he made a surprising remark: "You can call it a surprise too."
Wenxi was silent for a moment: "...Are you serious?"
Shang Chen nodded slightly.
The couple is planning to have a child, but they haven't started the process of trying to conceive yet.
Wenxi got pregnant probably because she was too excited last time and the condom broke.
Wenxi didn't want to take medicine, and since she was also planning to get pregnant, she lazily said, "If I get pregnant, it will be a pleasant surprise. Let's just have the baby."
Who knew, she was actually pregnant.
Finally, the couple decided: "Regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl, their nickname will be Surprise."
When Wenxi told Wenzhou about her pregnancy, Wenzhou was abroad.
Wen Zhou: "I'll probably be back in about two months. Take good care of yourself."
Wenxi guessed that her brother had gone abroad for treatment again, and her joy was instantly replaced by a deep sense of heartache.
"I will, brother, you don't need to worry about me."
Wen Zhou: "I'm not that worried, after all, there's still Shang Chen."
"I'll give Shang Chen a few words of advice later."
After the siblings finished chatting, Wen Zhou immediately called Shang Chen and started giving him a 'reminder'.
The two men even started discussing it at the end, with Shang Chen taking notes in his notebook.
Wenxi: "..."
After marriage, her brother and Shang Chen got along surprisingly well.
Wen Zhou went abroad for treatment and was out of contact for two months. When he returned, he brought Wen Xi a marriage certificate.
When Wenxi saw the marriage certificate, she hesitated for a long time before saying, "My sister-in-law is so beautiful!"
Wen Zhou raised his eyes and smiled, "Don't you have anything else to ask?"
Wenxi said solemnly, "A lot."
She touched her belly and said earnestly, "Brother, are you prepared to take this marriage seriously?"
Wenxi feared that Wenzhou was only getting married to put her at ease, so she wouldn't have to worry about him anymore, and that he would just marry anyone.
What I fear even more is that Wen Zhou is only getting married for personal gain, using marriage as a stepping stone to his career, and ignoring his own true feelings.
Wenxi couldn't help but say, "Brother, even if it's a business marriage, we should still take it seriously."
Wenxi clutched her stomach: "Your little niece is still alive, you can't lie to the child!"
Wen Zhou was slightly taken aback, and a rare gentleness appeared on his face: "Is it a girl?"
Wen Xi nodded slightly and smiled, "Maybe she'll be as clingy as I am."
A smile gradually filled Wen Zhou's eyes: "That's good, it's better than being like Shang Chen."
Wenxi was slightly embarrassed.
Shang Chen calmly said, "Big brother is right, it would be better for a girl to be like Xixi."
Wen Zhou knew what Wen Xi wanted to ask, and calmly said, "It wasn't a whirlwind marriage."
“I also contacted her for two months and only finalized the deal after meeting her parents.”
As for how they made contact, Wen Zhou didn't elaborate.
Wenxi was both surprised and delighted: "Brother, you were with my sister-in-law for the two months you were abroad?"
"So, when you went abroad before..."
Wenzhou interrupted Wenxi's guess: "We met during this trip abroad."
Wen Xi smiled and didn't press for details. "As long as it's suitable."
"I agreed to marry Shang Chen because I felt he was a good match."
Wen Zhou smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law went home to take care of some things. We'll meet up when we have time."
Wenxi: "Okay."
Wen Zhou: "I heard you've given your child a nickname?"
Wenxi smiled and said, "Baby's nickname is Surprise, what do you think, brother?"
"surprise?"
Why was this name chosen?
Wenxi: "...I just feel that the arrival of the baby is a surprise for both of us."
Wen Zhou: "It's really quite good."
