Although the Bo family was regarded as one of the top wealthy families in the capital, Bo Yueming and Pei Yi did not spend extravagantly on their wedding arrangements. Instead, they tried to keep the decorations as simple as possible.

The reason for this was very simple. They two of them were used to keeping a low profile—

Marriage was a ceremony for themselves, not a “publicity stunt,” and they didn’t want other guests to regard their wedding as an occasion to flatter them.

The most important thing was that after discussing it with Old Mrs. Bo, they planned to donate all the money saved from the wedding and red envelope gifts to orphanage charities.

Old Mrs. Bo was getting on in years, and her heart had softened. As soon as she heard that the two juniors had such kind intentions, she naturally acquiesced to them.

The wedding was arranged on the open lawn of Bo Manor, and pure white and natural green became the main colors of the occasion.

When Li Yuan arrived at the wedding venue with his person, he took a quick look at Pei Yi, the star of the wedding.

Their eyes met.

Pei Yi immediately came up to him. “Pear Garden, you’re here. Where’s Yan Cen?”

Li Yuan motioned with his eyes, “He took a work call when I got out of the car. I couldn’t wait for him, so I came in first.”

Having said that, he took a glass of champagne from a passing waiter’s tray to celebrate. “Congratulations, ah. Happy wedding.”

Pei Yi smiled and accepted his blessing. “Thank you.”

Their wine glasses clinked.

Pei Yi had only taken half a sip when he caught sight of a familiar figure in his peripheral vision, and notified his friend who had his back turned.

“Pear Garden, look who’s coming.”

When Li Yuan heard this, he turned around to see—

Four or five meters away from them, Gu Jianshen, who they hadn’t seen in a long time, was signing in outside the venue under the guidance of an attendant.

The two exchanged glances and walked up together in tacit agreement.

Pei Yi was the first to speak out. “Brother Gu, welcome. I didn’t think you were coming.”

When Gu Jianshen saw his friend, he smiled and said, “You invited me to your wedding, how could I not come? Congratulations.”

“Thank you.”

Pei Yi raised his glass and asked unambiguously, “Now that you’ve come to the capital this time, do you intend to stay or leave?”

Gu Jianshen got his meaning and joked, “On an occasion like today, you still can’t forget to offer an olive branch and poach someone?”

Pei Yi smiled back. “Brother Gu, who made it so difficult to poach you?”

Hadn’t it been more than four months, and the other party still had no intention of resigning from Weiyi?

Gu Jianshen made eye contact with Li Yuan beside him, and discussed the agreed upon plan, “Actually, Mr. Li and I talked about it, and in another two months, I will hand over the project to Weiyi before New Year’s Day.”

“After this year’s Spring Festival, I’ll come to the studio at the beginning of next spring. Am I welcome?”

“Of course you’re welcome!”

Pei Yi looked at Li Yuan in surprise. “When did you two reach an agreement? Why didn’t I know about it?”

Li Yuan explained, “As for what happened last week, weren’t you busy with pre-wedding preparations? It’s just as well that I waited until today to tell you.”

Gu Jianshen also took a glass of wine and joked, “When you were in Haishi  before, it was like dropping a bomb on my career. Mr. Li is different—”

“In the past two or three months, he has been loosening the soil for me with a ‘small shovel’ at every turn.”

After this back and forth, Gu Jianshen was completely uprooted.

People flowed to higher places.

Weiyi was a very good platform for a game company, but Pei Yi had been right from the beginning. People who truly loved games looked forward to working in an environment where they could work side by side.

Pei Yi toasted again. “Then let’s celebrate in advance Brother Gu joining us at YWY. When you come to the capital next year, we’ll welcome you with a toast.”

“En.”

The three of them chatted for a while.

Pei Yi still kept in mind his identity as a star of the wedding. “Pear Garden, why don’t you take Brother Gu to sit inside? Sister Yang and the others are here. Do you want to get to know each other first?”

Li Yuan nodded. “Okay. Yan Cen will come later, you can show him the way.”

Pei Yi smiled at him. “Understood.”

Not long after the two left, the smile on Pei Yi’s face rapidly broadened and he walked over quickly with a look of dependence. “Er-ge, are you busy? Is Grandma okay?”

Old Mrs. Bo was a little dizzy after getting up early, and was resting in the main house.

When Bo Yueming saw his lover, the remaining seriousness on his face completely vanished. “The doctor checked and didn’t find anything serious, but her blood pressure is a little low.”

“With the two of us holding a wedding today, she was so excited last night that she couldn’t sleep well. We’ll finish up early and let her rest earlier.”

Pei Yi breathed a sigh of relief and joked, “I was just curious if she was fine, this little old lady scared me.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a particularly deliberate cough sounded from the side.

Pei Yi and Bo Yueming heard the sound and looked around, only to find that Qin Yishun had entered the venue at some point, followed by the smiling mother and daughter, Shu Wan and Pei Yuan.

“Mom, Sister, Big Brother!”

Pei Yi called them one by one. “We didn’t you tell us in advance so we could go out and pick you up?”

Bo Yueming nodded. “Yes, ah.”

Shu Wan looked at the two of them with a smiling face, looking moved. “We were afraid you would be too busy greeting guests, so we came ourselves. Anyway, Yishun took us in, and there were no problems.”

Pei Yi fully understood his mother’s meaning. “We’re a family, so there’s no need to be polite. You two just have a good time today.”

Pei Yi took the initiative to give Shu Wan a warm hug, and promised in a low voice, “Mom, don’t worry, we’ll be fine.”

“Ah.”

Shu Wan patted his back twice. “Good boy.”

Ever since Pei Yi’s “foolishness” healed, she felt as if she was alive again.

Her daughter was independent and self-reliant, and was making progress in her work, and her son was happy and had a successful career. Her life had been relaxed and comfortable for the past six months.

Bo Yueming glanced at his watch and changed the subject, “Mom, why don’t you go in and sit down first.”

When Pei Yi heard his lover call her this, he almost couldn’t control his smile. He added in approval, “Yes, ah, eat something to cushion your stomachs. The wedding ceremony won’t start for half an hour.”

Qin Yishun saw his brother’s unrestrained smile and felt helpless and doting.

These two had already reached the point of getting married. Of course he wouldn’t make any inappropriate sarcastic remarks again, but as Pei Yi’s elder brother, he still had to say something.

Bo Yueming seemed to be aware of this, and his eyes unconsciously turned toward Qin Yishun.

The two looked at each other, and Qin Yishun said, “Bo Yueming, take good care of Xiao Yi. If one day you…..”

“I won’t!”

Bo Yueming stopped him, preventing Qin Yishun from speaking an unwarranted assumption.

He looked around and made a solemn vow to the family members that Pei Yi cared most about, “There won’t be such a day. I will always be good to Pei Yi in this life, and that will not change until I grow old and die.”

His tone was very firm and earnest.

Shu Wan and Pei Yuan looked moved when they heard this, and Qin Yishun finally showed a hint of approval. “En.”

Pei Yi watched his family enter the main venue, and finally laid eyes on Yan Cen, who came in late.

Bo Yueming looked at his friend and asked, “Why are you alone?”

“Pear Garden went in a few minutes ago,” Pei Yi replied in his stead, and couldn’t help but tease, “I say, Mr. Yan, why are you still so busy with work? You still have to hide and make phone calls?”

Yan Cen pushed up his glasses slightly, and confirmed that his lover wasn’t around before whispering, “It wasn’t for work, it was for a major life event.”

Bo Yueming came to a realization first. “You’re proposing?”

Yan Cen admitted in a low profile manner, “En, tonight. I will borrow some of your blessings. If I succeed, I’ll treat you to dinner another day.”

Pei Yi was thrilled. “Pear Garden will definitely agree.”

Yan Cen said without revealing a trace of nervousness, “Thank you for your auspicious words.”

Having said that, he rushed off to find Li Yuan.

Pei Yi remained standing there, enveloped in an unprecedented sense of happiness. It wasn’t only for himself, but also for his friends and family.

Everything before him was a life that he had never before dared to imagine.

Pei Yi looked at Bo Yueming next to him and held his hand. “Er-ge, thank you.”

Bo Yueming immediately clasped their fingers together, helpless and doting. “What are you saying ‘thank you’ for?”

Pei Yi murmured after some consideration, “A lot. Thank you for liking me, for staying with me, for healing me, and even more for loving me.”

Bo Yueming understood his lover’s feelings concentrated in these few words, and kissed his temporarily empty ring finger. “Me too.”

. . . . . . . .

Half an hour later, the wedding started on time.

Bo Yueming and Pei Yi walked hand in hand to the main stage under the observation of many family members, friends, and guests.

At the wedding officiant’s indication, they stood face to face and spoke their long-prepared vows:

— I have been abandoned, discredited, and hurt, until I met you, who was also scarred. We saw through each other’s illusions and gained each other’s truth.

— We have watched the starry sky in winter and the fireworks in summer. We went from the first day of dating, to the first month of companionship. From the first year of falling in love, to the rest of our lives.

— Thank you for appearing and healing my incomplete soul.

— Thank you for your persistence and completing my realization of happiness. 

— Whether in sickness or in health, whether rich or poor, whether young or old, you will be my only love for the rest of my life!

They put on their wedding rings again amidst applause and blessings, and ran toward the future that belonged to them.

The wedding lasted until five o’clock in the afternoon before it officially ended.

When Bo Yueming took off his formal clothing and walked back to the first floor, he discovered Pei Yi standing outside the courtyard gate. There was also a staff member wearing an international express uniform next to his lover.

The moment the package was handed over, Pei Yi noticed Bo Yueming’s fixed gaze. “Er-ge.”

Bo Yueming approached. “What are you sending?”

“Wedding candy and a photo of our wedding,” Pei Yi confessed under Bo Yueming’s acquiescing look, “She’ll like it, right?”

There was no relying on others to get things done.

As Bo Yueming’s spouse, Pei Yi personally sent their happiness.

Moved, Bo Yueming kissed his lover’s forehead. “En, let’s go.”

“Where to?”

“Nowhere, I just want to sit with you and watch the sunset.”

Pei Yi looked up and found that the sunset was burning brightly today, as if it was also celebrating with them.

Around them was the same courtyard where they had first met, and even their current positions were almost the same as before.

Pei Yi suddenly remembered something. He kissed the corner of Bo Yueming’s mouth childishly and spoke familiar words—

“I like you, let’s get married, husband~”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

No one had expected that the joke when they first met would confirm their future.

Bo Yueming wasn’t surprised this time, but kissed him and agreed, “En, it’s up to you.”

The evening breeze blew through their hearts, spreading their love everywhere.

They had survived all the loneliness and hurt, and fell in love at the best, most suitable age.

— The End —
