Wedding Night
Festive music slipped in from outside the door. Lin Jingming, wearing a black suit, leaned against the wall and looked at Xia Zhitang who was sitting in front of the makeup mirror and letting the makeup artist modify her makeup.
The huge skirt of the white wedding dress was like a blooming flower under her. Her long hair was curled into big waves, with a few strands hanging down on the side of her face, making her sweet face more charming.
I'm used to seeing her plain appearance when she goes out for photo shoots, so I was a little dizzy when I saw her dressed up like this.
Lin Jingming put his hands in his trouser pockets and just stared at Xia Zhitang who was about to become someone else's bride. All kinds of thoughts flooded his mind.
He didn't quite understand why he was so persistent in wanting to personally send her to Gu Zian. He was so strong that he felt a little sorry for himself.
However, this is what he wants to do most at the moment. Even though his heart is broken, he hopes that Xia Zhitang will hold his arm and walk this path with him.
The wedding march sounded, Lin Jingming helped Xia Zhitang smooth the wrinkles on the white veil, and took a deep look at the person who had been engraved in his bones.
Xia Zhitang felt a little embarrassed by his gaze and tightened her hold on the bouquet: "Is my makeup too exaggerated?"
"No, it's very beautiful." Lin Jingming stretched out his arms, "Come on, it's time to go over."
The spotlight shone on the two of them. Xia Zhitang took Lin Jingming's arm and slowly walked towards Gu Zian who was under the spotlight at the end of the red carpet.
Gu Zian's fangs gleamed softly under the light. He looked at Xia Zhitang, who was slowly walking towards him like the Virgin Mary, and his heart was filled with happiness.
Lin Jingming glanced at the smug Gu Zian, then looked away to look at Xia Zhitang's profile.
Well, she is very beautiful, but she is about to become a wife, and this husband is not herself yet.
He couldn't help but recall the first time he casually suggested that Xia Zhitang ride in his car.
The weather was very hot that summer, and the air conditioning in the office was very cool. Xia Zhitang looked at him with a look of surprise.
From then on, Xia Zhitang's bright eyes no longer looked at him. In order to even the score, he deliberately forced her to ride in his car again to show that he had no other intentions.
Sadly, they couldn't go back, so what did he do? Well, he just started to give up...
Lin Jingming didn't know why he recalled the past that had been buried in his memory at this moment. Perhaps it was because at this moment, the situations of the two of them had been completely reversed.
He is not even as decisive now as Xia Zhitang was back then.
He couldn't cut off this relationship, couldn't let it go, and could only wait endlessly in pain.
The red carpet road decorated with flowers and satin is so long and yet so short.
It seemed like just a moment from the beginning to the end. The music stopped and Xia Zhitang looked up at Lin Jingming.
He forced a somewhat sad smile, nodded at Xia Zhitang, took her hand and handed her to Gu Zian.
As the bride and groom held hands, the spotlight fell on them, and Lin Jingming was asked to leave the stage by the staff in the shadows.
This three-person competition ended today with Gu Zian's temporary victory.
In the bridal chamber, Xia Zhitang, who had been busy all day, yawned and fell asleep without even having time to remove her makeup.
Gu Zian lay beside her, face propped up, smiling as he watched the wavy hair fan out from under the large red silk quilt. Xia Zhitang's delicate face was painted with delicate makeup, and her peaceful sleeping expression exuded the delicate classical beauty of top Western oil paintings.
His fingertips gently stroked Xia Zhitang's eyebrows, across the tip of her nose, and finally landed on her lips.
Xia Zhitang felt a slight itch in his dream, and subconsciously waved away Gu Zian's hand and turned around.
Gu Zian couldn't help but reveal an extremely gentle smile, and stood up to wash and remove his makeup.
After a while, he came out of the bathroom with damp hair, makeup remover and cotton towel in his hand.
He sat on the edge of the bed and carefully helped Xia Zhitang remove the makeup on her face.
Then he reached into the quilt, fumbled around and pulled out two sticky flesh-colored semicircular soft rubber objects.
Xia Zhitang, who was already asleep, had no idea what Gu Zian had done. He was so nervous that his breathing became irregular. He barely suppressed his inner excitement, crawled into the quilt, and fell asleep holding Xia Zhitang in his arms.
When Xia Zhitang opened his eyes, the only light in the room was a few rays of light coming in through the gaps in the blackout curtains, emitting a soft glow.
Xia Zhitang only felt warmth beside her, and the scent of green grass surrounded her.
She moved slightly, and Gu Zian opened his eyes dazedly: "Wife..."
His voice was slightly hoarse and his tone was soft and charming.
A few seconds after Xia Zhitang regained consciousness, he realized that he and Gu Zian had completed all the procedures from getting the marriage certificate to the wedding.
That unreal and hazy feeling rose in her heart. She was about to start her life with the dual identities of wife and mother.
"What's wrong? Are you tired?" Gu Zian kissed Xia Zhitang's lips.
"Zi'an, we are getting married." Xia Zhitang put his hand on Gu Zi'an's waist, his expression still a little confused.
Gu Zian hugged Xia Zhitang in his arms, his chest shaking with laughter.
"You should call me husband now." He had laughed enough, rested his chin on the top of Xia Zhitang's head and spoke in a long tone.
Xia Zhitang narrowed his eyes slightly, looked up and kissed Gu Zian's neck.
During this period, she finally saw through the fear in her heart. Zi'an and the Gu family gave her enough and were sincere enough. No matter what happened before, it no longer mattered.
Just like what Gu's father said, no one can predict what will happen in the future. Now that we have come this far, let's just live the present life to the fullest.
The moment Xia Zhitang's soft lips touched Gu Zian's neck, he felt an electric shock from that point straight to his spine and spread throughout his body.
His eyes instantly became deep. Ever since Xia Zhitang came back, she no longer took the initiative to be intimate with him.
On the one hand, Gu Zian had gained popularity abroad, and on the other hand, he was concerned about the baby in his belly, so he didn't dare to do anything except kiss and hug.
Now that Xia Zhitang had released an active signal, Gu Zian's inner desires were like a reservoir with the floodgates opened, rumbling and washing away his rationality.
When Gu Zian pressed his lips against Xia Zhitang's, he did not refuse as usual, but reached out and hugged him back.
A fiery atmosphere suddenly rose in the new house, and the big red wedding characters decorations everywhere silently reminded the couple that this was their wedding day.
Gu Zian forcefully attacked Xia Zhitang's beauty, and her brows couldn't help but slightly frown, as if in pleasure and pain.
"Wife, I'll be gentle." Gu Zian bit her earlobe lightly, and his lips that could ignite fire moved all the way down.
Xia Zhitang thought of the last time and said coquettishly but angrily, "Hurry up."
In the evening, when Gu's father came home from the company for dinner, he saw Gu Zian and Xia Zhitang coming out of the elevator holding hands. He couldn't help but smile until crow's feet appeared.
"Where will you go for prenatal checkups in the future?" Father Gu asked casually at the dinner table.
Gu Zian looked at Xia Zhitang and tightened his grip on the chopsticks.
"The project team is still preparing, so you'll stay in Jiajia's hospital for the prenatal checkup for now. When you're not so busy, you can transfer to the hospital you recommended before." After Xia Zhitang got what he wanted, he felt more relaxed about things.
The atmosphere in the whole house relaxed, and Aunt Wang happily brought the stewed soup.
"This is a recipe prescribed by a nutritionist. The meat used is all natural."
Father Gu remembered something and instructed, "We should choose natural vegetables and fruits at home, and try to eat less out-of-season vegetables and fruits."
He remembered that the two of them rarely came back here, so he simply sent some people over.
After dinner, the two returned to their room, and Xia Zhitang expressed his opinion to Gu Zian: "Dad arranged too many people. I don't think it's necessary."
She counted the people who would come to the house now: "Look, the one who cleans the house. I don't have any objections to that. After all, there's no need to waste too much time on housework. But now, not only is Wang Ma here, but we also have a yoga instructor, a driver, and even a family doctor."
Xia Zhitang felt that Father Gu was getting a bit too excited: "I don't think it's necessary to have so many people around."
"Let's put it this way. If I'm free, I won't need a driver." Gu Zian felt that special times warrant special treatment, "but if I'm not here, someone still has to drive."
He couldn't help but kiss Xia Zhitang's slightly pregnant belly again: "After all, it's not so convenient to drive when your belly gets bigger."
"I'll just change the car and adjust the seat and steering wheel." Xia Zhitang really couldn't accept the driver.
"We'll talk about this later, but the yoga class is for sure." Gu Zian thought about it and decided that he needed a masseur or something to help Xia Zhitang take care of her body. "A family doctor can help with fetal monitoring, otherwise you won't be able to handle counting fetal movements every day. How about this, we separate the yoga class from the professional body care, and I'll supervise you the rest of the time."
Thinking of the lack of care Xia Zhitang had taken during her absence, Gu Zian couldn't help but sigh, "Wife, could you please take care of yourself a little more?"
"I take nutritional supplements as prescribed by the doctor, and I also do prenatal yoga regularly." Xia Zhitang felt that she respected herself very much by eating well, sleeping well, and maintaining the good habit of yoga.
Gu Zian looked at Xia Zhitang's serious face and sighed: "Wife, let's listen to our father on this matter."
The next day, Lin Jingming and Xia Zhitang were doing a preliminary screening of a thick stack of resumes.
Xia Zhitang finally cleared the resume in front of her, leaned back in her chair, and ate the afternoon snack that Wang Ma had stuffed in her, trying to clear her mind.
Lin Jingming looked up at Xia Zhitang who was holding the yogurt in a daze, and inexplicably felt her depression.
"Why don't you look happy?"
Xia Zhitang slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Jingming, who had a buzz cut, always wore a T-shirt or sportswear, and even replaced his watch with a smart bracelet.
"So you were wearing a shirt and slicked back hair on such a hot day because there was an RV on the set and people were fanning you and handing you an ice towel." He was corrupted by the Su family's capital!
"Auntie, I don't think I've offended you recently."
