Chapter 355: Daylight (Finale)
The call for the scene was high, and Chang'an's pace was a little unnatural.
"Nervous?" asked Zhou next to him.
Chang An denied it softly: "No." ”
She wasn't really nervous, just a little unexpected, she didn't expect the scene to be so big.
I knew she wouldn't come, she wasn't a person who liked to go in and out of this kind of occasion at all.
I had no choice but to go on Zhou Dao, people had already stepped on the red carpet, and they had to finish it hard.
Chang An had to continue to smile, walked a few steps, but the hand that was originally holding the crook of Zhou Yuan's arm was pulled down by him, Chang An's expression froze, thinking that he was going to do something, but in the next second, he held Chang An's hand into his palm, changed from holding his arm to interlocking his fingers, and held Chang An all the way......
At that time, the two happened to walk to the center of the red carpet, dozens of cameras were aimed at them, and Zhou Wei's action was clearly projected on the big screen.
Wow, it's exploding around again!
Afterwards, Chang Jiahui sent a WeChat message to Chang An, saying that her brother-in-law was in a commotion at the time... Tian shamelessly and openly sprinkled dog food!
The entrance ceremony is held outdoors.
Chang An's evening dress showed his arms and back, and after walking the red carpet, he was wrapped in a suit by Zhou Wei and entered the room.
The main venue of the cocktail party is located in the hotel banquet hall, in the form of cold meals, and there are some fixed links to go before the start, after all, it is a commercial cocktail party, and speeches are inevitable.
Today is no exception, first Xu Nan took the stage to speak, talking about the development of Rong'an from the beginning of its establishment to the present.
After that, Deng Shunlin also gave a speech, the content was nothing new, it was nothing more than to summarize the past on behalf of the group and imagine the future.
Chang An had a big belly, sat under the stage as a quiet listener throughout the whole process, and when Deng Shunlin finished speaking, she thought that she could finally start eating, but the master of ceremonies' painting style changed, "Next, please invite Mr. Zhou Wei to the stage." ”
Chang An: "......"
Crowd: "!!"
People who are familiar with Zhou Wei know that he rarely speaks on stage on such occasions now, and most of the time he is looking for the people below to be representatives, but today Xu Nan has spoken, Deng Shunlin has also spoken, and he still wants to speak?
Some people in the audience have begun to discuss, but it is generally quiet, Zhou Wei took the stage in such an atmosphere and took the microphone handed by the emcee.
"I'm sorry, that... I'll take a few minutes of your time!"
As soon as he spoke, there was a little uneasiness in his expression and words.
The discussion in the audience gradually became louder, which is not like Zhou Wei, who is always rigorous and calm on weekdays.
What big deal does he have to announce?
“…… Looking at Mr. Zhou today, I'm a little nervous, hey... I've been with him for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen you!" Ye Li, who was sitting next to Chang An, suddenly spoke up, with a bit of ridicule in her tone.
Chang An frowned, and his eyes were fixed on the stage.
Zhou Wei raised his hand and suddenly loosened his tie, huh... Looks like he's a little nervous today!
Just when Chang An was puzzled, Zhou Wei on the stage suddenly looked at her, and when he saw it, the camera and the spotlight also followed his gaze to Chang An's side.
Chang An, who wanted to hide in the corner in a low-key manner, was exposed to the camera again, and Zhou Wei stepped down at this time.
Everyone looked for his gaze and trajectory, and soon saw that he was going to Chang An's side, and the discussion became louder, and at this time, Ye Li, who was originally sitting next to Chang An, got up and raised her hand to say hello, and several people around her also retreated two meters with her, and finally became Chang An sitting there alone.
Chang An was inexplicable, but Zhou Wei had already walked in front of her, took her hand and pulled her up from the chair.
The two looked at each other.
What are you doing?
Chang An wondered and questioned Zhou Wei with his eyes, but the latter raised the microphone.
"When I got married to my wife, there was no ceremony, no wedding, I only held two tables of banquets in the hotel and got a certificate, and then I didn't make up for it because of some things, although she didn't mind, but this has always been my regret. ”
"I have already discussed the wedding when the child is born, and the venue and hotel have been booked, but I think about it and feel that there should be something that has not been done, and I just have this opportunity, and I will finish it together!"
Zhou Yan smiled, holding the microphone in one hand and inserting it in his trouser pocket with the other.
Chang An was still immersed in ignorance, but saw that the man in front of him suddenly sank, knelt on one knee, and took out a small box from his trouser pocket.
The box opened, and a large diamond ring sparkled in the light.
Then his voice was heard, through the microphone in the stereo sound in all directions of the ballroom.
He said: "Mrs. Zhou, no matter whether you are rich or poor, sick or healthy in the future, are you willing to let me always love you, cherish you, accompany you, and never abandon you for the rest of my life?"
Chang An only felt that the huge waves in his chest were rolling, and countless images passed in front of him, clear, blurred, and clear......
She covered her lips with her hands, and the still crowd froze for a moment before exploding.
Someone shouted from behind, "Marriage proposal, it's so romantic!"
But no one knew what that meant to both of them!
It's not just a marriage proposal, it's not just a show of love.
A few years ago, on ten miles of Chang'an Street, on that night, they finally merged in their rooms in the Beijing Hotel, making their two-year marriage finally a reality.
At that time, Zhou Wei hugged Chang An, who was soft and naked in his arms, and said this is also what he said.
Chang An gasped fiercely.
This bastard would do such a thing on such an occasion.
Her unrelenting tears began to flow again.
The commotion around became louder, and Zhou Wei was still kneeling there, looking at her with a pair of starry eyes smiling, full of tenderness, affection and expectation that were about to overflow.
Chang An turned his face away and twisted his eyes.
"I do!"
"I am willing to let you love me, cherish me, accompany me, for the rest of your life, never give up, Mr. Zhou!"
So far, the audience has been a sensation.
Zhou Wei got up and put the diamond ring on Chang An's ring finger.
Damn it, she has been "Mrs. Zhou" for so many years, but he has never put a ring on her from beginning to end.
"Alright, the size is just right!"
The moment the ring trap was put into Chang'an's ring finger, Zhou Wei faintly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although today's "marriage proposal ceremony" was just a formality, but deep down he still felt a throbbing and sacred sense in his heart.
Chang An is too, although he was caught off guard, he did not exclude that his heartbeat was so fast at this time.
In the end, I don't know who shouted.
"Hug one!"
"Yes, hug one!"
Chang An turned his face away, thinking that it was obviously a commercial drinking party, why did it make it look like a haunted room.
Outrageous!
Chang An smiled and wanted to perfunctory, but in the next second, as soon as his back tightened, Zhou Wei hugged her and leaned down, and his lips pressed down accurately......
President Rongbang proposed on the spot and kissed his pregnant wife for several minutes.
Later, this photo of kissing in the center of everyone became a hit for a while, and it hung on the headlines for a whole week, and some people even edited it into a small video.
In Chang Jiahui's words, oh my God, I can't bear to look at it directly, in front of so many guests, subordinates and customers kissing, and turning a good celebration into a dog food special, such a sassy operation can be done by my brother-in-law, but what to do, really handsome to death, handsome to death!
Afterwards, Chang An also watched the photos and videos on the Internet, and the two kissed, which was very beautiful from posture to angle.
The whole network sent blessings, but she still couldn't help blushing and heartbeating.
Oh, my God!
was under the flag of Tiananmen Square before, and later in the Dome of the Gods of the Burning Emperor Gang Museum, this time it was even more exaggerated, and everyone watched it, under the noses of netizens across the country......
Mr. Zhou, what else do you dare not do?
Zhou Xin sent a WeChat message to Zhou Meng that night: "Brother, such a high-profile sprinkling of dog food, beware of retribution!"
Tsk, will he be afraid? Will he believe?
The worst and darkest time is over.
At night, he hugged Chang An in his arms, touched the ring on her ring finger with one hand, and touched her bulging belly with the other.
Happiness and stability are enough!
……
The child was born in winter, and it was a tough battle when he was born, Chang An felt that he had gone to the ghost gate again, but fortunately, in the end, the adults and children were safe.
A man and a woman, a dragon and a phoenix, made up the word "good" at one time.
At night, Zhou Wei kissed Chang An's finger in the ward.
He silently thanked God in his heart, he must have done a lot of good things in his previous life, and this life can be so complete.
The full moon of the child is already the beginning of spring, and the weather is getting warmer.
The Zhou family held a full moon wine for two children, which was quite big, from relatives, friends to people in the business circle, Zhou Wei invited them all.
The list is framed to hold nearly 100 tables of banquets.
Zhou Shiqing disagreed at first, after all, his position is sensitive, and it is inevitable that he will cause people to talk about it, and Zhou Wei will also pay attention to this in the past, and he can be low-key as low as possible, but this time he just bites it and must do it.
Chang An is not in a rut, although she also supports her father-in-law's idea, but Zhou Wei takes the idea in major matters, but Liu Shulan is very supportive of her son this time.
"For so many years, birthdays can't be held, birthday banquets can't be held, and even the old man can't wait to be sneaky when he dies, why can't the child have a happy event on the full moon?"
It is rare for Zhou Wei to stand on the same front as her, she tried her best to support her son, and Zhou Shiqing had to compromise.
In the end, a hundred tables were ordered, from the hotel to the banquet were of the highest standard, and on the day of the full moon, Zhou Yi scattered his wealth, and gave bonuses to every Rongbang employee, and even the reporters and media who were squatting at the door of the hotel gave each of them happy cakes and red envelopes.
He still said the same thing, full of joy and joy.
The wayward local tyrant boss, Ye Li joked with Chang An, "Do you know what the company is looking forward to the most now?"
"What?"
"I hope you will be blessed and long-lived, and add more strong men to the boss, and it is best to hold the two of them in three years, when the child is born, full moon, one year old, tsk...... In this way, the boss can give us a bonus every quarter!"
“……”
Chang An was powerless to complain about Zhou Wei's behavior of giving out a bonus if he was fine, he didn't think he was more coquettish at the full moon banquet, holding a wine glass and holding Chang An's hand all over the audience, people who knew him knew that he was Zhou Wei, the father of the child, and those who didn't know thought he was a guest to help the fun.
The whole person was happy throughout the scene, and others toasted him without refusal, and the excitement and happiness were simply beyond words.
In the end, it was no accident that Zhou Yi was drunk and didn't take a bath, so he pressed Chang An to the bed when he entered the room, and hummed while stripping her clothes.
"Wife, I'm so happy..."
"Really, so happy, I've never been so happy!"
“…… No, it should be exciting!"
"I actually had a daughter and a son all of a sudden, why do you think I'm so powerful......?
"A 5% probability... You still say that I can't get this 5% probability...... Hum...... I just ask you if you are convinced!"
His mouth seemed to be full of broken thoughts, but his hands did not stop, seeing that he was about to strip off Chang An's clothes, Chang An found an opportunity to push him down.
Only a "bang" was heard, and his stone-like body was rolled over on the bed.
"What are you doing, when you're drunk, you're drunk, aren't you..."As a result, before Chang An's words were finished, a light snoring sound sounded beside him.
Chang An pushed him.
"Zhou..."
"Zhou Ming?"
The man who was still drunk and crazy just now didn't move, but when he looked closely, the man next to him had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.
Chang An: "......"
She smiled speechlessly, and pulled the placket of her body that was torn open by Zhou Wei, her body was not comfortable just after the full moon, she was tired all day during the day, and she had just finished breastfeeding the child, but now she had to drag her tired body out of bed again.
Chang An went to the bathroom and wrung a warm towel, and when he came back, he took all the effort to pick off Zhou Wei's shirt and pants, and wiped his whole body twice with a towel.
She threw the towel, indignant in her heart, and reached out and twisted it on the bridge of Zhou's tall nose.
"If you drink like this in the future, don't go into the room to sleep, sleep in the guest room alone!"
Probably because of the pain, Zhou Wei, who was sleeping in a daze, suddenly raised his hand and took a handful, and directly dragged Chang An, who was hanging above and making him bad.
Chang An lost his center of gravity for a while, and his body slammed into Zhou Wei's arms.
"Hey!"
Chang An propped his chest and wanted to get up, but he used two forces as if he annoyed Zhou An, he wrapped his arms around Chang An and turned over, and most of his strong body covered Chang An, Chang An was crushed to death, and he couldn't push the person away after several efforts, and finally was firmly buckled into his arms by Zhou An, and he was still muttering words in his mouth.
Chang An didn't hear it clearly at first, and pushed it a few times, but he couldn't push it away, and finally had to give up.
Only then did I hear what he was whispering like a dream.
He said, "... Chang An, thank you!"
The fate between them, from the initial choice of each other, to now hugging each other and sleeping together to give birth to life, has experienced too many things in the middle, almost across time, across life and death, so he doesn't say "I love you", nor does he say the sweet words that women love to hear.
Chang An really didn't need these things, but on this special day, he hugged her and said "thank you", but Chang An could understand what he meant.
Thank you for coming into my life.
Thank you for being married to me.
Thank you for not being consumed by misery in those obscure and gloomy years.
Thank you for your willingness to come back to me.
Thank you for giving birth to children for me and fulfilling my life forever.
Thank you even more for giving yourself to me and accompanying me all the way from now on!
In a thousand words, the word "love" is already too light for them, so Zhou Wei doesn't say "love", he only says "thank you"!
I am grateful to Chang An and at the same time grateful for the gift of fate.
A sentence of "thank you" is even more beautiful than a sentence of "I love you".
……
It's May, the fragrance is not over, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, it has passed the steep chill of early spring, but it is not yet the heat and impetuousness of midsummer.
This season is mild but not sparse, warm and unrestrained, the sky is calm, and the vegetation is happy.
Finally came to the best season of the year, and finally ushered in the wedding of Zhou Wei and Chang An.
This time, the two made up the wedding, abandoning the high-profile and lively of the child's full moon wine, and only invited relatives and friends who usually move around more.
According to Chang'an's meaning, the wedding does not need to be extravagant and grand, only the people close to them need to send blessings and share their sweetness and joy together, so the final list is probably only a hundred people.
Zhou Wei chartered a flight to Italy a few days in advance.
Yes, the wedding was set in Venice, the place where Chang'an wanted to go several times but didn't make it in the end.
However, it is said to be a low-key wedding, but low-key does not mean that there is no effort, on the contrary, the whole wedding week has taken a lot of effort, from choosing a hotel to the color matching of the tableware on the spot, and he personally checks every detail.
From the time Chang An promised him to make up the wedding, when she was still pregnant, Zhou Wei had already found a team to start preparations.
He did it himself from beginning to end, and he can't remember how many meetings he held for it.
Ye Li said that he spent no less effort to prepare for this wedding than he did in the Luyang Lake project back then, but he was willing and happy to do it, just to be able to present an unforgettable wedding for his beloved woman, and to make up for the shortcomings of so many years.
Finally, after two field trips to Italy, the wedding was scheduled for the Hipriani Hotel at the end of Giudecca Island.
Why choose this hotel? Zhou Wei also has his own reasons.
One is that the hotel has a long history, converted from a 15th-century private residence, and the interior is full of Murano crystals, ornate fabrics and antique furnishings, and these periodic atmospheres are what Chang'an is fascinated by, especially the quaint courtyard and flower-filled corridors, which can be viewed by the door of the Vendramin Palace, which Chang'an must love.
The second is the most important and critical point: the in-depth tour of Italy made by Chang An four years ago, when it comes to the Venice part, she mentioned this hotel several times, just because the public lover George Clooney also stayed here with his new wife when he got married that day, which shows the romance and charm of the hotel.
For this reason, Zhou Wei always remembered, so he simply set the wedding here.
It's a pity that this hotel is also famous for its tsundere, and it is difficult to book one or two rooms for travel, let alone organize a private wedding banquet.
The hotel once refused Zhou's request, and the wedding team communicated with the other party several times, but in the end it was not satisfactory.
Ye Li deliberately flew to Venice for this reason, but the result was still the same, after going back, she tried to convince Zhou Xian, after all, there is more than one luxury hotel in Venice, and it is the same to change it, but Zhou Xian's mind is going to do it there.
In the end, he went out in person, stayed in the hotel for three days, staring at the stalking, probably because the hotel was moved by his sincerity, and finally made an exception.
Of course, Chang An didn't know about these things, at that time she was in the last two months of pregnancy, her belly was so big that she could barely go out, and she could only lie in bed most of the time, so she couldn't care about the wedding, and she thought that she couldn't believe it when Zhou Yi put the printed invitation sample in front of her.
You must know that it is difficult to find a room in this hotel, and now she is going to hold a wedding there, how is it possible, but the facts are in front of her.
She didn't know how Zhou Wei did it, but she remembered that she was so excited that she couldn't do it, if it weren't for her stomach being too big and inconvenient to move, otherwise she might jump directly on him.
It is one of the most iconic hotels in Italy and has witnessed countless romantic love stories.
On May 6, the wedding took place as scheduled on the hotel's expansive lawn.
Chang An wore a haute couture wedding dress, covered his face with a white veil, and held Chen Haodong's arm through the flower arch.
Zhou Wei stood on the high platform not far away, only a few tens of meters away from her before and after, she walked step by step, step by step, looking at the man waiting for her in front of her through the white veil.
Sometimes life is really like a play.
Seventeen-year-old Chang An was forced to step on a plane to London, but she never thought that the man she had to go through so hard to go to would be a different person after eleven years.
At that time, the breeze was bright, and the fragrance of flowers carried the humidity in the air.
Chang An clenched Chen Haodong's arm.
A little closer, a little closer, until finally standing in front of Zhou Wei.
The man next to her took her fingers.
The so-called eldest brother is like a father, she no longer has a father, and this part of the road was led by his brother.
Chen Haodong faced Zhou.
"I'll hand her over to you, if you let her suffer a little more grievance, I still won't let you go!"
Zhou Wei's eyes were calm, and he took Chang An's hand from Chen Haodong and held it in his palm.
"I won't give you this chance!" he said in a low voice, but with strength, he finally took Chang An's hand and interlocked his fingers with her.
So far, her childhood, her youth, her once young and strong love, finally changed by fate.
For the rest of her life, she was the man in front of her, her husband, the father of her children.
Zhou Wei turned to face Chang An, lifted the white veil on her face, bright eyes, red lips, although all places were already familiar, but in a moment's trance, he still felt that he was in a dream.
The band switched to another romantic tune.
The scent of flowers wafted through the air.
Zhou Wei raised his hand to hold Chang An's cheek, his lover, his wife, the appearance of the twenty-year-old, the appearance of the thirty-year-old, it seems to be the same, as if there is something different.
But the only thing is that he is sure of himself, his heartbeat intensifies, and his heart beats suddenly.
Many years ago, I read a book that said: "You are full of flowers but fresh and tender, your beauty is still charming, your eyes are like torches but clear as before, and you are familiar with the world but more open and amorous......"
Zhou Wei felt that Chang An was probably like this.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how could he pick her at a glance from those photos ten years ago? Probably not because she was ordinary, not because she was docile, everything was just appearances.
In the dark, it is probably predestined!
Next is the hand flower throwing session.
Everyone recovered from the romantic atmosphere just now, and the single girls lined up and automatically squeezed to the front.
Chang An turned his back to them.
Someone shouted "1, 2, 3!"
Chang An raised a gesture to throw, seeing that the bouquet was about to fall, she screamed, but at the last moment she suddenly withdrew her hand and slowly turned around.
"Brother!"
She stood in front of Chen Haodong in a white veil.
Love, love, love...... There are probably two men in every girl's life, one teaches her to love, and the other teaches her to be loved, but to this day, Chang An still has no regrets about the injury he suffered when he was young.
She believed that those wounds had grown into beautiful wings, and that what had happened over the years, the strength and courage of silence, who could be sure that there was no teaching and gift from him?
"Thank you!"
Chang An stuffed the flower in his hand directly into Chen Haodong's arms, smiled, and stood on tiptoe to hug him.
She whispered softly in her ear: "Brother, brother, ......" is still like the little girl back then, and her soft voice is like heaven.
Then I heard her say: "I hope you can find your other half as soon as possible and be happy!"
Chen Haodong closed his eyes, his heart shook violently, and his palm was wide on her shoulders and tightened.
Yes, yes, he answered her in his heart.
There was applause behind him.
Chang An let go of Chen Haodong, her eyes were red, how could he be calm, but from then on, there was only brother and sister affection left between them.
One turned around, and Zhou Wei leaned down and wrapped Chang An to kiss.
In the daylight, the light is shining, and the sound of the waves rings in the ears......
