"Comb all the way to the end..." He felt a sudden warmth around his wrist. He's father hadn't noticed when, his calloused hands gently running through his hair. "I've been teaching for thirty years, and I'm not as nervous as teaching my son-in-law to comb his hair."
At five o'clock in the morning, the wedding procession startled the pigeons from the old street. As best man, Osa, holding a megaphone, led the door-knocking. Mixed in with the rain of red envelopes were copies of doctoral dissertations—"My brother-in-law used my brother's mathematical model as a password!" He's cousin wailed, holding up a QR code.
When Xiao Zhenbei finally broke through the glutinous rice balls' defenses, he saw the bride demonstrating a pregnancy data model to her aunts. "According to Markov chain prediction..." He Jiayuan's academic presentation was cut short by a kiss beneath her red veil, and the elderly in the room laughed until their dentures fell out.
At noon, a century-old banyan tree in front of A-Ma Temple draped its aerial roots as a natural wedding curtain. As Xiao Zhenbei held his bride's hand in prayer, he discovered a USB drive hidden in her palm.

"Mr. Xiao, shouldn't we be playing 'Comrades: Almost a Love Story' now?"
"I'm checking the temperature and humidity sensors... Hey, don't turn it off! Sheng Yi and Sheng Wei said they want to livestream their wedding night to their brothers and sisters!"
Moonlight paved the sea in a silvery path, and shouts echoed from the shore. Zhennan and the twins circled the boat in a speedboat, Guo Huiru shouted from a loudspeaker, "Remember to collect the bridesmaids' dresses!" Meanwhile, a corner of Xiao Zhengtang's wedding couplet, ripped by the sea breeze, was being torn apart. "The code is like a pair of eyes, and the algorithm is like a pair of mandarin ducks."
