vs 1214 A kiss by the Seine
Notre-Dame Cathedral is one of the most famous cathedrals in the world, and it is not easy to hold a marriage ceremony here. The reason is very simple, if the threshold is not high enough, there will be countless people who will set the place of marriage here, once or twice is nothing, after many times, where will the church have time to receive tourists and believers who come to pray?
With curiosity, I asked the narrator a few words, and Li Jingyuan and Jessica got answers, and they knew a few harsh restrictions.
First of all, there is a high cost. When it comes to holding wedding ceremonies at other venues, renting a venue costs money. And getting married in this church also costs money. Although we will not use the name of 'renting a space', but will use the excuse of 'donation', the fact that we have to pay for it will not change.
The high cost restricts many ordinary people with average economic strength, because they can't afford it, they won't choose to hold the marriage ceremony here.
Of course, although the cost is high, it is not an exaggerated sky-high price. For a small group of wealthy people, it is still acceptable. Even, for some people with upper middle economic strength, as long as they are open-minded, they can barely afford this expense.
In order to limit these people, there is a second condition. That is, in addition to being rich, you must also have a certain fame or status.
Notre-Dame Cathedral is very famous in the world, and its particularity determines its status. In the past, ceremonies were held for those big people, but in modern times. You can't just lower your profile for the sake of money, right? Receiving applications from outbreaks and holding ceremonies for them will greatly reduce the style of the church. It will also greatly reduce the status of the church in the hearts of the world.
And the last one, that is, if you want to hold a ceremony in this church, you must be a Catholic. Think about it, if you were a Muslim or a Buddhist, what would it be like to have a marriage ceremony in Notre Dame Cathedral? Even if the parties themselves don't think it, in the eyes of others, it can only be described as awkward. And. For the church, such a thing is definitely not allowed, because it can already be regarded as 'blasphemy'.
Then again. The third condition is a bit more subjective than the first two. If you really want to hold a ceremony here and do the work of a priest, it is still possible to get permission.
While listening to the narrator, I compared myself in my head. At first, it was just curiosity. Later, the more Jessica thought about it, the more excited she became.
Rich. The first one doesn't have to be considered at all, and Jessica doesn't think that she has to pay for the wedding ceremony. When that time comes, Li Jingyuan, who is a 'husband', will definitely take the initiative to bear all the expenses. For ordinary people, this expense may be quite a lot, but for a rich man like Li Jingyuan, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.
It's famous, and it's not entirely hopeless at all. Although not a politician with the highest status in the social class. Nor is it a globally known big shot. However, compared to ordinary people. Jessica's status as an artist has made her a lot famous, and as long as she works harder, she should be able to meet the standard.
This is purely from Jessica's side, and Li Jingyuan is not taken into account. If you count Li Jingyuan's fame, the 'Olympic World Champion', 'Two-time World Cup Best Team Member', 'Dakar Rally Champion', just these real names are enough to meet the standard. If Li Jingyuan is willing to announce his economic strength and use his status as a shareholder in several large companies as a bargaining chip, it will be even more so.
And the last one, 'Catholics'. For both Lee and Jessica, this restriction is the biggest problem, because neither is 'Catholic', but a non-religious person.
However, the narrator has already explained that this one is the most restrictive, not as strict as the first two requirements. "Maybe you can do the ideological work of the priest and get him to agree", "I am only a non-believer at most, not a heretic", "If it really doesn't work, then I can take OPPA and believe in Catholicism together." Anyway, when I was in the United States before, I had already received a lot of edification. Thinking like this, Jessica, who had been feeling a little regretful, saw the light of day again.
At first, it was just a passing idea, but after thinking about it and analyzing it, Jessica felt that the matter of 'having a wedding at Notre Dame Cathedral' became more and more reliable.
Usually a romantic girl, although I fantasized about the scene when I got married, but I never thought of it so concretely. For Jessica at that time, having a wedding in one of the world's most famous cathedrals was a dream.
Suddenly, Jessica realized that things were not so far away, but close at hand, and she felt a feeling of 'dreams come true', and her anticipation was even stronger.
"OPPA, when we get married, let's hold the wedding here, right?" The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, Jessica couldn't help it, so she raised her little face and asked Li Jingyuan expectantly.
"Good ......." Just said a syllable at the beginning, and just as he wanted to nod, Li Jingyuan suddenly stopped again, with a tangled expression on his face.
"OPPA, what's wrong with you?" No matter what the reason was, Li Jingyuan didn't nod his head very simply anyway, and seeing his hesitation, Jessica was a little disappointed. Of course, disappointment is disappointment, Jessica still knows Li Jingyuan very well, and Zhilu said that he must have thought of something, so, with some curiosity, she couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking, we might have to have two weddings." Shaking his head, Li Jingyuan concentrated his mind for a moment. Then he turned to Jessica and smiled.
"Two weddings?" Just now I was just a little curious, this will be completely incomprehensible, as soon as I heard Li Jingyuan's words. Jessica's little face unconsciously showed a confused expression.
In China, when young couples get married, they often have to hold a banquet in each of their hometowns, which is the so-called 'one marriage and two wines'.
However, the 'two weddings' that Li Jingyuan refers to are completely different, what he means is that the full set of full-size wedding processes has to be walked twice.
One was the 'wedding at Notre-Dame Cathedral' that Jessica is now proposing. The other one was a traditional Korean wedding held at the Lee family in South Korea. Ordinary people may not have to be so troublesome, but Li Jingyuan, as the young patriarch of the Li family, will take over the position of patriarch after marriage. Because of this identity. Li Jingyuan's wedding is not only about himself, but also has a very important meaning for the whole family.
In other clans, it is impossible for a core member like the young patriarch to marry a female artist living in the entertainment industry. If Li Jingyuan's grandfather wasn't open enough, he wouldn't have to run into the same situation as the children of other clans. Right now. The elders of the family did not interfere with him and Jessica. is already considered to be very face-saving, so he will inevitably have to repay the favor in other aspects.
Solemn and traditional, the scene must make the guests of other families who come to the wedding impeccable, and it must also make other families feel the heritage and status of the Li family. Under such a premise, it is inevitable to hold a traditional Korean wedding.
"Well, two weddings. One is here, and the other is a traditional Korean wedding on Jeju Island. You also know the situation in my family. The clan is definitely not going to hold a traditional Korean wedding. Spreading his hands, Li Jingyuan first reminded Jessica helplessly.
After Jessica showed a suddenly realized expression, Li Jingyuan continued: "Actually, I thought before that we might have two weddings. At that time, I had already planned to hold one event on Jeju Island, South Korea, and the guests invited were relatives at home and friends from other fields; The other one is to be on the island I bought earlier, which we have been to together, on Lindeman Island in Australia. At that wedding, the invited guests were our friends in the circle, such as Brother Shi. ”
"Now, you want to have a wedding here. The traditional wedding in Korea cannot be canceled, so the one on Lindeman Island can only be abandoned. Anyway, it's a Western-style wedding, it's just a change of place, and when the time comes, just invite Brother Shi and them here. ”
While listening to Li Jingyuan's words, Jessica began to struggle again, and Jessica, under the reminder, also recalled the beautiful and romantic scenery of Lindeman Island. Comparing 'Wedding on Lindeman Island' and 'Wedding at Notre Dame Cathedral', she couldn't help but show a very hesitant expression on her little face.
Paris has a more historical feel, and for every couple, the wedding ceremony is also a memorable memory. In a way, holding a wedding here will make it feel memorable.
Lindemann Island is not bad, and the natural scenery is much better than that of Paris. In addition, because it is a private island, it will not be disturbed by the outside world or reporters during the wedding period, and the whole process can be relaxed and private.
A wedding in Paris can be a high-profile affair that satisfies a woman's vanity, but it also has a 'sense of history' and a deep sense of remembrance. On Lindeman Island, you can completely put aside the distractions of the outside world, experience the romance and sweetness of the wedding in a relaxed and happy mood, and leave more practical memories, which will feel more fulfilling when you look back on it when you are older.
"Hmm~~~." After thinking about it for a while, Jessica was still in a dilemma, and unconsciously hugged her arms to her chest, and the expression on her face became even more tangled.
"Hehe, can't you decide?" Jessica herself was very troubled, but her current appearance fell into Li Jingyuan's eyes, which made him feel very cute. couldn't help but smile, Li Jingyuan touched Jessica's head: "Then don't think about it yet, and think about it slowly when you have time in the future." ”
The words are spoken, but can Li Jingyuan still get into Jessica's brain and force her to change her brain? And it is. During the rest of the tour, Jessica was completely sleepwalking, although the narrator next to her explained very well. But she didn't listen to a word.
Seeing Jessica's soul, Li Jingyuan thought she was very cute, and his interest in visiting Notre Dame Cathedral inevitably decreased. Originally, the plan was to go shopping for two hours, but the two of them only visited for an hour, and then sent the narrator out of the church.
"Tired, aren't you? There are benches over there, so let's go and rest for a while. "Out of the church. There was no need to deliberately lower the volume anymore, and felt a lot more relaxed, Li Jingyuan unconsciously stretched his waist.
"Yes." I was still thinking about the marriage ceremony. Of course, Jessica would not have other opinions, nodded a little confusedly, and followed Li Jingyuan's footsteps to a bench by the square and sat down.
Notre-Dame Cathedral was built on the edge of the Seine, and the bench on which Li Jingyuan and his wife now sit is at the edge of the square. Also on the banks of the Seine. After sitting down. Jessica unconsciously focused her gaze on the flowing river in front of her, and was stunned by the glittering reflection.
"I'm going to buy some drinks, what do I want to drink?" Looking at Jessica's confused appearance, Li Jingyuan couldn't help but smile again.
Li Jingyuan just gently poked Jessica's waist and eyes, and didn't use any strength. However, Jessica's ability to control the center of gravity is not very good, and she will be in a daze again, and she will be so little bit by Li Jingyuan. She unconsciously tilted to the side.
"Huh~?" As she was about to fall, Jessica finally reacted. Surprised and shouted silently. In order to control her center of gravity, her arm also moved involuntarily, one hand reached out to Li Jingyuan, trying to grab him to borrow strength, while the other arm was propped up towards the edge of the chair.
Li Jingyuan's movements were fast, and he grabbed Jessica's outstretched arm. However, he could only grab Jessica by one hand, and he couldn't go around her body to grab her other arm.
Because of Li Jingyuan's pull, Jessica's posture also changed a little, and the hand she subconsciously propped up to the chair did not work, but accidentally hit the armrest on the side of the chair.
"Ouch~!" Anyone who has had a similar experience knows that when making an unconscious action, they often do not control the force, and the pain after the collision will be more intense than if they were actively bumped. Jessica was the same this time, and she still bumped her little finger, and she couldn't help but scream in the pain.
"Did you hit it? Where? Show me. From Jessica's reaction, it was clear that she was injured, and Li Jingyuan was very anxious to pull Jessica's little hand in front of him and examine it seriously.
It's not a big deal, it's just a hard injury, and it will recover after a while. However, seeing that Jessica's little finger was still a little twitching, and the color was red, Li Jingyuan's heart still felt very distressed.
Li Jingyuan was distressed, and Jessica just had a sore hand. The pain was not long, but the moment was very intense, Jessica was a girl after all, and she endured it or unconsciously held back two bubbles of tears.
"There's nothing to do, there's nothing to do, I'll blow it for you~. Whew~~, whew~~. When I looked up, I saw the tears in Jessica's eyes. It's not because he thinks Jessica is cute now, like a child, but because his tone is the softest when coaxing a child, and he is very distressed, Li Jingyuan unconsciously coaxed Jessica in the way of coaxing a child.
If you want to talk about the actual medical effect, it is not at all. However, because of Li Jingyuan's words and actions, Jessica couldn't help but be moved, because of this psychological factor, the pain she felt in her hands was really reduced a lot.
"Flutter~!" I don't feel any pain anymore, but Li Jingyuan is still continuing. Looking at his cautious movements again, Jessica felt 'cute' again.
"Still laughing~! It's all for you to stop thinking nonsense, you just don't listen, it's okay now, it hurts, right? ”
The more Li Jingyuan nagged, the more Jessica felt warm in her heart, and without answering, she showed a sweet smile to Li Jingyuan again.
Maybe it's just because Jessica's smile is too sweet, or maybe it's because being in Paris, France, the most romantic city, has infected the unique romance of the French. After seeing Jessica's smile, Li Jingyuan's nagging involuntarily stopped, staring at her with two eyes, and just froze.
Unconsciously stretched his head over, and his hand also wrapped his arm around Jessica's waist and pulled her into his arms.
"Ah~, OPPA, I thought of it~!" Although she also wants to 'play kiss' with Li Jingyuan, but in the end, it is still for oriental women, and in this public occasion, Jessica still can't let go. Just then, another thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and in the next second, she put her hand on Li Jingyuan's chin and shouted in surprise.
'Got it?' Forget it, don't care, kiss it and talk about it. After a pause, Li Jingyuan's mind also flashed, but the desire to kiss still prevailed, so he still grabbed it hard in his hand, and then kissed directly against the little strength that Jessica held on his chin.
"Hmm~." didn't expect Li Jingyuan to be brutal, and when Jessica was kissed, her eyes couldn't help but widen.
However, Li Jingyuan's momentum was too strong, and she was immersed in it in the next second, so, in the midst of the entanglement, Jessica gradually closed her eyes, and her hands unconsciously wrapped around Li Jingyuan's back. (To be continued......)
