Milan, the largest metropolis in Italy and one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, is also the most economically developed region in Europe, controlling 4% of the world's art treasures. Milan would be the 20th largest economy in the world if it were a country, with official figures showing that the Milan metropolitan area accounts for 25% of Italy's GDP

As a city, Milan has too many glories, the world convention and exhibition center, the world fashion capital, the world historical and cultural city, the world opera mecca, the world art capital, the world football city, the world Catholic town!

For a tourist, it's a holy place, for a designer, it's a paradise, Milan has countless reasons for people to stop, but for Li Chen, the only reason Milan makes him stay is Emmy.

"It's a beautiful city, it's just a work of art!" Walking on the Avenue of Montenapoleone, Li Chen looked at the surrounding scenery like a wanderer, and in order to prove that he was not a layman, he held back such a sentence for a long time.

Amy held her boyfriend's hand, now she is no longer the ignorant girl who first came to Italy and was curious about everything, long-term exposure to various fashion occasions and countless praised experiences have made her gradually appear as a well-known designer, the only strange thing is that the girl's outfit seems to be as simple as it was at the beginning, and she can't see the prosperity of the city at all, she just designs for the sake of design.

"I guess you already want to go back, and I know that in your eyes, even the most precious works of art are not as interesting as the ceiling of the roof!" Amy knew Li Chen's surname, and it was more practical to expect him to go and judge some of the ancient buildings around him like an artist, than to expect that some wandering singer on the streets of Milan was actually a famous singer.

"I definitely didn't have that idea!" Although he was seen through, Li Chen desperately denied it, and he tried to find some reason for himself, "I just think that it seems more interesting to quietly watch you draw designs by your side than to appreciate these works of art whose origin I don't know the origin of at all." ”

"It would be even better if there was a game console next to it!" Amy added to her boyfriend's unspoken sentence, "I wonder how you spent those weekends when I wasn't there?" Don't Julie and Lindsay take you out shopping? And that Taylor? ”

Because she is far away from the United States, Amy does not behave strangely when she mentions these people, she is like talking about a group of ordinary people.

Li Chen shook his head, "What do you say, Julie has complained to me more than once, she said that she wants to change careers to become a model, so that she can come to Italy, and as a result, she now pulls me to the street to help her look at fashion whenever she is free, and what is even more annoying is that Lindsay even gave her membership card to Julie, and then she went shopping even happier!" ”

Looking at the man's depressed appearance, Amy laughed softly, "I forgot to tell you, Julie, she is a shopaholic, you never expect her Amazon to have free time, the craziest time, she actually received 14 couriers a day, and then she put her credit card with me, I guess after I left, she will be liberated!" ”

What Amy said made Li Chen twitch slightly, it turned out that what he saw was still a controlled Julie, "But what if she said to be a model, isn't his professional class law, God knows how she came up with this idea, can you imagine what it feels like for me to follow her in and out of the fashion store with the female surname all day long?" ”

"There's nothing wrong with that!" Amy held her boyfriend's hand, "Julie told me that since the fashion show last year, she has been contacted by an agency, and it was estimated that she was afraid that I would be alone, but now that I am in Italy, maybe she is too lazy to stay at school!" ”

Wow, Li Chen exclaimed, "Then I won't be surrounded by some fashionistas, well-known designers, and super models in the future!" ”

"And Hollywood stars, little divas in the music industry!" Amy's attitude is vague, but fortunately she doesn't have too many negative emotions either.

Li Chen scratched his head, the girl's generosity made him a little confused, even if he felt a little out of place, he still said his question, "Amy, do you really not mind?" ”

The girl didn't answer directly, she avoided the question, "Would you like to accompany me to meet someone?" ”

Milan Cathedral! Although Li Chen has never been to this place, there is no other possibility for such a magnificent church in Milan than the Milan Cathedral.

One of the five largest cathedrals in the world, the Duomo of Milan is second only to St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican, and it is also the largest Gothic building in the world, where Napoleon, who conquered Europe, was crowned in 1805.

Li Chen pointed to the door of the church, "You said the person you wanted to see is here?" Is he also a Catholic? ”

Amy nodded, "He's a nice guy, when I first came to Italy, I often felt a little lost, he showed me the way and answered my confusion!" ”

"Him?" Li Chen was very sensitive to this word, and he carefully verified it.

Obviously this thing is jealous, Amy smiled, he poked the man's forehead, "Bastard, where do you want to go, that old man is the cardinal archbishop of the diocese of Milan, that is, the cardinal in the general population, they have the right to run for the pope, and enjoy great honors. ”

Amy's words made Li Chen look around in a slight panic, he felt the same way he felt when he and Taylor were talking about the Demon Gate Sect in the city center, in this kind of place, if you don't pay attention to it, you will get a disaster.

"Okay, that lord is very generous, I won't blame you!" Amy leaned into the man's ear and whispered, "Besides, you're not a cultist!" ”

"It's terrible not to be a cultist, the devil knows if the cruel punishments that punish heretics in the novel are real!" Li Chen secretly thought to himself, of course, he didn't dare to say such a thing at the door of the Milan Cathedral.

Instead of imagining the compartment and the chamber, the noble cardinal archbishop stood generously in the hall of the church, and it seemed that Amy had spoken to each other before, and she stepped forward to greet him, and the two began to talk in fluent Italian.

Li Chen found that Amy turned her head from time to time and pointed to what she was talking about, although he wanted to know, but he didn't understand Italian at all, and the legendary cardinal also looked at him from time to time, the two seemed to be discussing something, and the bishop's face was a little strange.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with you!" After a short conversation, Amy walked back to Li Chen with an excited face.

"What have you discussed?" Someone didn't understand anything, so he patronized to see the two of them discuss.

Amy's next words surprised Li Chen.

"Will you marry me? In the presence of the Bishop, we will become husband and wife! "The girl doesn't play cards according to common sense at all, and her thinking is a few dimensions ahead of her boyfriend.

The bishop's face was a little strange, and he probably knew what the young man on the other side was surprised by!

Li Chen thought a lot, and Amy just watched quietly from the sidelines, she was waiting for the man's choice.

The girl's pure gaze made Li Chen feel a little guilty, he thought of the reason why the other party went to Italy, he also thought of what he had done in the past six months, he even thought of the first time the two looked at each other, in an instant, he gave his own decision, Li Chen was ready to turn around and leave without looking back.

Amy became extremely disappointed for a moment, and the bishop standing on the side shook his head, he may have thought of this result a long time ago, such a sudden forced marriage, the object is still a proud son of heaven who is favored by the public, in his mind, Li Chen will not be able to agree to Amy's decision in a hurry.

Someone who had just taken two steps suddenly stepped back, and Amy forced a smile and asked, "What are you doing when you come back, don't worry, I'm already crying!" ”

Li Chen wiped the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes, "How did you get it like this!" Aren't we getting married, and I need to buy a ring! ”

As he spoke, he kissed the girl's eye, "Amy, can you delay the bishop for an hour, you know, I'm not familiar with Milan, give me more time, I need the biggest and most beautiful diamond ring, fortunately I signed a big contract a few days ago, otherwise I would be so poor that I can't even get the ring money!" ”

The man's peak turned Amy into a laugh, she put her arms around the other person's waist, "No need for you, Lord Bishop is ready, you just need to say what I want when he asks!" ”

Forehead! Li Chen looked at the kind-looking bishop on the other side strangely, "That old guy won't recognize Amy as his goddaughter, right, even the wedding ring is ready, so generous?" ”

Thinking like this, he began to yy again, "Since he is a cardinal archbishop, it should be a rare commodity to get his hands on, maybe it is still an antique, and he was brought by the former prince and princess......"

Amy seemed a little uneasy, he was worried that the man was just impulsive, "I'm asking you again?" Are you sure? We're getting married, we're saying our vows before God! ”

Li Chen had already thought about it, although he didn't know how to solve the matter in the United States, he still decided to take one step at a time, some things have to be decided sooner or later, and there is not much difference between earlier and later, "Yes, since God guided us to meet, isn't it perfect to swear in front of God?" ”

The marriage ceremony organized by the bishop himself was not as luxurious as Li Chen imagined, he didn't even use the main hall of the Milan Cathedral, a small prayer room, an ordinary statue of Jesus, in front of a noble cardinal, all this seemed so incompatible.

"Why don't you announce it to all the visitors and even to all of Milan, I don't think the wedding ceremony should be like this!"

"What should that be?" The bishop, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke, and Li Chen realized that the other party could speak English, and he was secretly glad that he had not said anything bad about the other party just now.

"Not to mention the celebration of the whole country, at least it must be broadcast live to fans on Twitter, as well as relatives and friends gathered in a circle, and the grand drinking party is ......" Li Chen said more and more quietly, because Amy had secretly dragged him more than once.

The bishop was not as angry about his vulgarity as Li Chen was worried, he smiled very calmly, "There is no live broadcast of Twitter, but you have God, no relatives and friends, but God can represent the world, as for the grand reception!" ”

Lord Bishop shook his head, "Not really, but we have something else!" ”

"Something else?" Li Chen was a little curious, he wanted to know what else the bishop was referring to.

A nun walked in, holding a seemingly precious bowl in her hand, and as for what was inside, it was even simpler, Li Chen was sure that it was tap water.

"Holy water?" He suddenly figured out something, what can be put into this kind of bowl is definitely not as simple as boiled water, thinking of the plot often said in novels, he thinks that this thing should be the legendary holy water.

"Can I drink it?" Someone is a little greedy, the holy water thing is usually just to listen, but now that he has the opportunity to see it with his own eyes, he began to have some ** thoughts.

Amy gave him a blank look, "You're not sick or sick, why are you drinking this?" ”

Li Chen quickly saw the usefulness of the holy water, and the Lord Bishop didn't know where to take out a rope, and then put it in a bowl to soak it. Pick up the rope and tie it around each of the left ring fingers of the two of them, because it was soaked in holy water, leaving a loop-shaped watermark on their fingers.

The rope that completed the mission was burned to ashes by the bishop with a candle, and it was obvious that the ring-shaped holy watermark left on the fingers of the two was the ring prepared by the bishop in Amy's mouth, and Amy was a little distracted as she watched the watermark gradually disappear.

Li Chen took the girl's hand, "Now, the ring has been completely engraved into our fingers, and no one can take off the wedding ring!" (To be continued.) )
