He always had such a principle.

 Xia Ling was still not happy, so she snorted lightly.

The little baby cried in her arms, so Pei Ziheng said, “Stop whining, the baby is laughing at you.”

 Too busy to bicker with him, she rushed hurriedly, trying to pacify the baby clumsily. She fed him in a very awkward manner. He helped out at the side, helping her untie her clothes and using a baby-specific cloth towel to wipe the baby’s mouth.

They looked like an unusual couple.

Xia Ling blushed slightly and glanced secretly at him. Their eyes met and she hurriedly turned her face away.

He chuckled lowly, his mood becoming very good—In this life, he finally had something to protect. It was not the family’s matter that he had been coerced into taking responsibility for since young, but his own choice, his own precious wife.

 If that was true, how good would life be.

————————————————————

 In the cold night, the old man was asleep. He told himself, give her a wedding, one that belonged to him and her only, the most magnificent wedding. With her favorite irises and roses, with chocolate towers piled on the beach…

 If he could satisfy her every dream, would she never leave?

 1————————————————————

 In the dream, he took her home and took very good care of her.

She became a little more bloated than before, her skin moist and tender, as beautiful as a blooming rose.

 She put the dress she had worn before she was pregnant in front of the mirror and said with dissatisfaction, “I can’t wear it.”

 Pei Ziheng said gently, “I’ll buy you a new one.”

 She glared at him fiercely. “You still dare to talk! If it wasn’t for giving you a son! Boohoo.” She cried fakely in sorrow for a while, then, seeing how he still looked very amused, she grew even more unhappy. “What are you laughing at!”

 “I didn’t laugh.” He naturally converged his expression, but his eyebrows still showed joy—it was great to see her healthy. Although she was rounder than before, she was more beautiful than before and felt better to the touch.

 He walked slowly to her and embraced her. “Xiao Ling, let’s have more children.”

 Her face turned red and she whispered, “Beast.”

 He bowed his head and kissed her before reluctantly letting go of her lips, lingering in it for a while before saying, “I will give you the grandest wedding, and you’ll give me another baby, how’s that?”

 Her eyes lit up. “Wedding? It must be the most luxurious wedding, more luxurious than the one you had with Wang Jingwan! Tsk! She dared to say that I don’t deserve such a good wedding!” When she had begged with Wang Jingwan not to take away her beloved man, Wang Jingwan had arrogantly humiliated her, and even till now Xia Ling was still vengeful.

Pei Ziheng said affectionately, “Okay.”

 During his time where he was getting better, he had been working overtime to handle his official duties. Now that business was stable, after half a year, he sent out letters of invitation and gave her a dreamy island wedding.

 He let her appear in the wedding dress designed by the world’s top designer and decorated with gorgeous beads and appear on the jade beach. Both the guests on the spot and the audience watching the live broadcast in front of the screen held their breaths.

 She was beautiful.

 Although she had always been beautiful, today, she was even more gorgeous. She was as gorgeous and dazzling as a star, and it shook people to their cores.

 The former Wang Jingwan could not be compared to her. So what if she was a prestigious lady? Even the most expensive ladies couldn’t compete with Xia Ling’s one finger!

 Xia Ling was supported by Feng Kun as they walked along the long blanket of the beach, taking each step towards Pei Ziheng.

She was an orphan and had no father or brother, so her close friend Feng Kun had temporarily taken over the role of handing her over to the groom. Originally, Chu Chen had wanted to fight for this position, but Xia Ling had said, “You have a good relationship with Ziheng, you are going to be the best man.”

 Her simple words were enough to make Chu Chen speechless.

 It was not that she had seen how differently he and Feng Kun had treated her, they were simply arranged according to their relationship with Pei Ziheng. However, even though being the best man was good, Pei Ziheng had a group of ten best men, so how could it compare with holding her hand and walking down the carpet to personally hand her over to Pei Ziheng with pride?

Feng Kun saw through his unwillingness, but he just smiled and didn’t expose him.

 He didn’t care about his pride as much as Chu Chen did, but he knew how “good” Chu Chen was to her. In any case, he didn’t want the person who calculated his every treatment towards her to take over the role of her father.

Feng Kun took Xia Ling’s hand and stood in front of the carefully arranged altar. He carefully handed her to Pei Ziheng.

 The shutters of the media’s cameras clicked repeatedly, and the eyes of the whole world today were attracted to this moment. Today, Pei Ziheng was wearing a white groom’s suit. He was wearing this color for the first time and looked more handsome than usual. His handsome face was like a God’s, welcoming the sunshine and glimmering in glory, his charisma blinding countless girls.

 His hand held onto her hand as if he was holding a precious treasure.

The ring was taken from the best man’s hand, and the radiant light it exuded was like the most dazzling star in the sky. The complicated and intricate design of the wedding ring immediately caught everyone’s attention. It was their “destiny.”

 Destiny…

 This was the first time she saw the wedding ring, and her first expression was surprise, then bliss and joy.

 “Does it look good?” he asked her.

 She said with amazement, “Shouldn’t you say ‘I love you’ at this time?”

 A lot of the guests laughed at her words. Pei Ziheng was usually such a cold and stern and expressionless person that even his most gentle appearance was slightly frightening. Only she could be so delicate and playful in front of him.

Pei Ziheng also smiled and said as she wished, “I love you.”

 “I love you too.” She looked at him, her eyes full of affection. Then, she tip-toed and kissed him. The white wedding dress was long and flowed behind her, the sea breeze blowing and the sun shining against it, giving it a light golden color as if it was coated with a layer of enamel.

 He embraced her and gave her a long, gentle kiss. It was so beautiful everyone held their breaths.

This wedding was called the most romantic wedding when it was reported by the media. At that time, the two people who kissed each other firmly believed that this life and every day would be so romantic.

 At night, he walked into the wedding room, carefully removed makeup for her, and took off the dress that was soft and dreamlike.

 She looked out the window at the moonlight, then suddenly said, “Ziheng.”

 “Yes?” He kissed her slender and beautiful neck and shoulders from behind, giving a low nasal sound.

 Her expression was a bit stunned, and it seemed a bit confused. “I’m too happy, could this be… a dream?”

 His hand moving up her smooth skin stopped slightly. “Why are you asking this?”

 Xia Ling shook her head. “I don’t know… but I always feel… I feel like I shouldn’t be here, as if… there’s something very important… but I have forgotten it.”

 The sea breeze blew, and a small card on the table in the bedroom was blown down. It silently fell at the feet of the two. Xia Ling pushed away Pei Ziheng’s hand and bent down to pick it up. She saw the handwritten words on the card. “Congratulations to Mr. Pei and Miss Xia Ling for your marriage.” It was from Li Lei.

 Pei Ziheng took the card from her hand and gently tossed it. The card flew out of the terrace into the night wind and disappeared. He continued to lower his head and kissed her, picking her up and placing her on the bed covered with rose petals. “How could it be a dream? Xiao Ling, you have not forgotten anything important. Nothing else is more important than us being together.”

 She couldn’t think properly with his kisses, and she left the flash of thought behind her mind and responded intently.

 Yes, there was nothing more important than being together. In this life, he and she would definitely grow old.

 Never to be separated.

 In the cold night, the snow got heavier.

The ninety-two-year-old Pei Ziheng was lying on the bed, his face smiling.

In the early morning, the servant who took care of him opened the door of his bedroom as usual and found that the old man who had lived a legendary life in the business world had his eyes closed quietly and his body was already cold. On the low cabinet next to the bed, there was a pair of wedding rings in the open velvet box. It was the one that had been sensational decades ago. It was said that it was the only ring that was comparable with the beautiful treasure that was revealed when Skyart Entertainment’s Big Boss Li Lei and the superstar Queen Ye Xingling had gotten married.

No one knew who the buyer of the ring was.

 It turned out that it was actually him.
