Chapter 480 The Male Lead of the Era 20 Pei Jiwang walked in, his military uniform crisp and his steps steady.
His arrival silenced the meeting room for a moment.
It wasn't because of his military bearing, but because of the two people following behind him.
Zi Xi subconsciously looked up, and when she saw those two familiar faces, she froze.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
[Mom and Dad?!]
Am I seeing things?
"How could that be? Aren't they in Shanghai?"
Zi Xi blinked, then blinked again.
The two faces he had longed for did not disappear; instead, they became clearer and clearer.
Father Shen Huai-ren was wearing a Zhongshan suit. Although he had lost a lot of weight, he was in good spirits. Mother was wearing an elegant cheongsam coat, and her eyes were already filled with tears.
"Xixi...Mommy's here."
Madam Shen called out, her voice choked with emotion.
This soft call broke Zi Xi's daze.
"Dad...Mom!!"
Zi Xi suddenly stood up, the chair scraping softly against the floor.
She opened her mouth but couldn't make a sound, and tears welled up in her eyes without warning.
With a trembling voice, she walked step by step toward her parents, almost in disbelief.
Pei Jiwang stood aside, watching this scene, a gentle smile flashing in his eyes.
Zixi threw herself into her mother's arms and cried like a child.
All the longing and grievances of the past three months were released at this moment.
Shen Huai-ren's eyes also reddened, and he gently patted his daughter's back.
Old Pei actually brought them here!
【How could Old Pei do this! When...】
[Old Pei, that well-intentioned big liar...]
Zi Xi cried while cursing him in her heart.
But those heartfelt words were filled with overwhelming emotion and love.
Pei Jiwang heard this, and the smile on his lips deepened.
After a long while, Zi Xi finally lifted her head from her mother's arms and looked at Pei Jiwang with teary eyes.
He stood a few steps away, looking at her with gentle eyes.
Zi Xi let go of her mother, walked up to him, looked up at him, tears still falling, but a radiant smile bloomed on her face.
"Thanks……"
She spoke softly, her voice still trembling with tears, yet utterly sincere.
"You mustn't cry today."
Pei Jiwang shook his head and gently wiped away her tears with his thumb.
"Um!"
Zi Xi nodded vigorously, but more tears welled up in her eyes.
These are tears of joy.
Everyone present was moved by this scene.
"Alright, alright, this scene of family reunion is joyous! Now, let the wedding officially begin!"
Commander Li cleared his throat.
The ceremony was simple yet solemn.
"Comrade Pei Jiwang and Comrade Zixi, with the approval of the organization, are now married as revolutionary partners."
"I hope that you will learn from each other, help each other, make progress together, and contribute your strength to the revolutionary cause in the future!"
"Bowing to the Great Leader!"
Commander Li, acting as the officiant, read out the marriage application and delivered a brief speech.
Pei Jiwang and Zi Xi turned around and solemnly bowed three times to the portrait of Chairman Mao.
At this moment, Zi Xi's heart was unusually quiet, filled only with piety and gratitude.
I'm grateful to this era for allowing me to meet him.
Thank you to the organization for approving our marriage.
I am grateful to my parents for coming into my life.
Pei Jiwang felt a warm current welling up in his heart as he listened.
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
The two stood facing each other.
Pei Jiwang looked at the girl in front of him, whose eyes were red but whose smile was bright, and felt a wave of tenderness in his heart.
