"Mountains and seas will eventually meet again, and storms will eventually pass. Today, these two lovers are finally united in marriage. May you spend your days and nights together, sharing meals and seasons, never giving each other the silent treatment when you quarrel, never being perfunctory in your laughter, always forgiving and cherishing one another. May you be filial to your parents, raise your children well, and grow old together, from youth to old age, from the first flutter of your hearts to the end, a lifetime of love and fulfillment. I also wish all the guests here today peace, joy, and all your wishes fulfilled."

The emcee was controlling the pace of the event and reciting blessings.

Mr. and Mrs. Xu were secretly wiping away tears, and the audience below the stage was already beginning to shed tears.

The atmosphere below was quite touching.

But it's not like that on stage.

...

"Dare to go all out?"

"What high-stakes game are you playing?"

"When the emcee asks you if you're willing to marry me, say no."

"Wouldn't that make us fraudsters?"

Lu Yuan and Xu Zhixiao on stage were trying hard to suppress their laughter.

They are trying to distract themselves with random, nonsensical conversations.

You'd laugh too if you were in that situation.

As they listened to the emcee say things like, "After many hardships, the newlyweds have finally entered the hall of matrimony," the two of them were filled with emotion.

They both couldn't hold back any longer.

What exactly is it all about? Where are all the obstacles and difficulties?

There's no way around it; the necessary procedures always have to be followed.

They could only endure it.

When do you think I should tell my parents the truth?

"Whatever."

"I thought about it over and over for a long time, but I still couldn't figure out how to start this topic."

"Just ask," Lu Yuan said, shaking his finger. "Trust me."

"Can I really trust you?"

"able."

Can you guarantee that everything you say is true?

"able."

"Is our wedding real or fake?"

Faced with this question, Lu Yuan answered without hesitation with two words: "Fake."

"You're lying."

Xu Zhixiao, of course, didn't believe it if it were fake.

Why bother with such a grand wedding?

But when she tried to ask more questions, the emcee turned around.

"Please come forward, newlyweds, to the final part of this ceremony, where you will exchange vows over the rings that symbolize your true love."

"First, Mr. Lu Yuan, who is standing on the left, are you willing to marry the girl in front of you? Will you stay by her side through thick and thin, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, for poorer or for poorer, until death do you part?"

It's just a procedure.

If vows really work.

Then there would be no divorce certificate in the world.

So Lu Yuan easily said, "I'm willing."

"You should say this to your wife."

The emcee handed over the microphone and gave a reminder.

Following the prompting, Lu Yuan looked into Xu Zhixiao's eyes and spoke again, "I am willing..."

He was interrupted by the emcee halfway through his sentence.

You should include the form of address.

In all my years as a MC, I've never seen such a clumsy groom.

Do I need to remind you what to call your wife?

I thought this would be a very simple step, but unexpectedly, something went wrong here.

Lu Yuan opened and closed his mouth repeatedly, but couldn't get a word out for a long time.

He knew, of course, that he was about to call his wife.

But he really couldn't call out!

"#¥%, I'm willing."

Lu Yuan uttered a few syllables incoherently, trying to get by with that.

They really managed to fool everyone.

The emcee was satisfied.

Although they babbled a bunch of alien languages, it's better than not speaking at all.

Anyway, the sound reception in the open-air venue is poor, and the audience can't hear clearly.

"So, Ms. Xu Zhixiao, are you willing to marry Mr. Lu Yuan in front of you? Whether in poverty or wealth, in sickness or health, you are willing to stay by his side and never leave him."

"Honey, I do."

Xu Zhixiao said this very frankly, her eyes fixed on Lu Yuan's face.

She didn't ask Lu Yuan why he was speaking in an alien language.

She had been observing.

"Now, groom, please kiss your bride and celebrate this most blissful moment in your marriage with all the guests in attendance."

A kiss is obviously an essential part of a wedding.

But both of them seem to need to prepare themselves mentally.

"If you're averse to intimate behavior, how about we just do a fake kiss?"

Lu Yuan peeked out, ready to borrow a spot.

But Xu Zhixiao didn't say a word and just printed it on.

LOL, you think you could get away?

This part of the process was very quick, and the emcee's next words followed immediately:

"Alright then, please step forward and bow to your family, friends, and guests."

Xu Zhixiao naturally followed the emcee and stepped forward to prepare to bow.

But she found that Lu Yuan hadn't left and was still standing there beside her.

She quickly tugged at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan snapped out of his daze and followed her forward, bowing to the guests and friends.

Why are you spacing out?

"I don't."

Why is your face so red?

"I don't."

The two bowed to end the ceremony.

Xu Zhixiao, puzzled, took Lu Yuan's arm and walked off the stage.

It was as if he had thought of something.

She asked tentatively, quite suddenly, "Husband?"

Lu Yuan's mouth didn't respond, but his face did.

He turned red and froze on the spot.

Taking advantage of this moment of dazedness, Xu Zhixiao leaned over and gave him a quick kiss.

Lu Yuan, as if waking from a dream, shouted:

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"husband."

Lu Yuan stood there again, stunned and speechless.

Xu Zhixiao leaned in and gave him another quick kiss.

Lu Yuan woke up again:

"Hey, what are you doing?"

We still don't know about this wedding.

How many times did Lu Yuan and Xu Zhixiao kiss?

All I could hear from backstage at the wedding was the constant murmur of "Hey, what are you doing?"

...

Noise always makes things seem lively.

The boisterous wedding banquet finally came to an end, and all the tasks for the newlyweds were also completed.

The wedding procession, the wedding ceremony, and the toasting at the banquet.

Friends and family are sitting around a table eating.

Xu's family and friends, some of Xu Zhixiao's colleagues, a few members of the band, Lao Wang, and colleagues from the matchmaking agency...

After a busy morning, everyone was trying to fill their stomachs.

The live stream was also turned off the moment the wedding ended, otherwise a large number of people would definitely have followed to the hotel.

Even the biggest hotel can't hold this many people.

In fact, many viewers still followed the crowd to the hotel.

Old Xu is a very dignified person, so he simply booked all the empty tables and ordered food on the spot.

He didn't lose out either.

Those who are comfortable sitting down to eat are all people who value manners.

Despite Lao Xu's repeated insistence that he didn't want red envelopes, everyone still spontaneously gave him red envelopes.

When it comes to weddings, whether you have a lot of money or a little, it's all about good luck.

The extreme busyness meant that in the end no one had time to take care of the two missing newcomers.

The two of them had changed into cheongsams and suits and were sitting side by side in a corner near the entrance of the banquet hall, lost in thought.

He sat on the ground.

Maybe it's because I'm tired.

After all, Lu Yuan hadn't slept all night and had been busy all morning; he sat by the door with his eyes closed.

But Xu Zhixiao wasn't sleepy at all.

She finds it hard to say whether this wedding was an escape for her.

In fact, the importance of parents getting sick is obviously much greater than that of getting married.

She should have asked that a long time ago.

But she dared not.

She was too cowardly in this matter.

"No amount of cowardice is shameful when facing life and death."

Lu Yuan seemed to know what she was thinking.

Xu Zhixiao leaned on his shoulder as well.

The warm afternoon sunlight streamed in, seemingly separating the inside from the outside of the banquet hall.

"Even if I get the answer, I can't change it."

"What if it's a misdiagnosis? That's how they act in TV dramas, making dumplings for the ending."

"My dad is not only a doctor himself, but he also has a much wider network of connections in the medical field than I do. How could his test report be a misdiagnosis?"

Xu Zhixiao certainly hoped this was a scene from a TV drama, where the whole family could happily sit together and make dumplings.

But she never even considered the possibility of a misdiagnosis.

Because the probability is 0.

"Believe me, Xu Zhixiao, courage will pay off, just like when you invited me to your wedding." Lu Yuan stood up with a smile and said, "The final result might even be beyond your imagination."
