After everyone rushed out, only Xia Chuyi remained in the room.
Huo Shiqian entered, finally seeing his bride.
Xia Chuyi looked at Huo Shiqian, dressed in a crisp military uniform, exuding a calm yet spirited aura.
"I didn’t know you could recite love poems," Xia Chuyi laughed and said.
But Huo Shiqian raised an eyebrow and said, "Love poems?"
"That’s a poem about war comrades, not a love poem," Huo Shiqian said, with a serious and calm expression.
Xia Chuyi: ...
Not a love poem?
He really has the nerve to say that.
"Not a love song? About war comrades?" Xia Chuyi pouted.
"Yes, it’s indeed about war, about comrades," Huo Shiqian calmly replied, pulling her up and into his embrace.
Then, Huo Shiqian reached out, intertwining fingers with Xia Chuyi, and said, "So, from today on, you are my comrade in the sa trench."
"As I pledge, through life and death, hand in hand, growing old together." Huo Shiqian slowly uttered each word.
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi’s lips finally broke into a broad smile, and she said, "Fine, as I pledge, through life and death, hand in hand, growing old together."
With this, all challenges were overco.
Huo Shiqian finally welcod his bride.
Taking her to Bao Mansion—this was predetermined, the new room for Huo Shiqian and Xia Chuyi.
The two completed a series of traditional rituals after arriving at Bao Mansion.
Then they changed into more casual clothes and headed to the State Guest Hotel.
Today, their families are hosting guests at the State Guest Hotel.
This hotel typically does not cater to outsiders, but the Ou and Huo families are not ordinary, so the hotel rented the venue to them.
On the wedding day, it was a gathering of the city’s powerful figures.
Even the leader was present.
The leader, as the bearer of greetings, saw Xia Chuyi and kindly said, "Are you the daughter Old Ou lost track of?"
"Hello, leader." Seeing the leader she had only seen on television, Xia Chuyi was quite excited.
However, the leader was very cordial and said, "Good, good."
The leader glanced at Huo Shiqian in his military uniform turned into a ceremonial suit, then at Xia Chuyi in her traditional red phoenix robe, and said, "A perfect match of talent and beauty!"
"Old Ou, you have a good daughter and a good son-in-law," the leader said to Ou ZhenTing.
After speaking, the leader then said to Huo Zhongcheng, "Old Huo, you have a good son and a good daughter-in-law."
Hearing the leader say this, even though it was a courtesy, both Ou ZhenTing and Huo Zhongcheng were very happy.
"Thank you, leader, thank you, leader!" They both said.
Then, Ou ZhenTing and Huo Zhongcheng accompanied the leader to get seated, waiting for the upcoming greetings.
Following the leader was a middle-aged man, who approached Xia Chuyi and said, "Are you Xia Chuyi?"
Xia Chuyi looked at him, filled with shock.
This person... seems to be the next leader!
"Hello, Mr. Wang, it’s , I am Xia Chuyi." She politely smiled slightly at the person.
"Oh, you know ?" Mr. Wang was quite amazed.
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi imdiately bit her tongue, thinking: Uh-oh, she’s exposed!
At this mont, Huo Shiqian held her hand, silently comforting her.
"I introduced Mr. Wang to my wife." Huo Shiqian said.
Hearing this, Mr. Wang didn’t have much suspicion, only nodding slightly.
"I heard Zicheng ntion that Xia is quite excellent, and during your ti in the United States, you completed a year’s coursework in less than half a year and returned early," Mr. Wang said to Xia Chuyi.
