#918 - Chapter 918: Let's make the wedding more grand! Distorted worldview? Live boxer!
Chen Hao glared at General Wang, then immediately ran back to his wife: "Qingmo, listen to me! The situation is urgent, and I can't give you a relatively grand wedding for the time being. In the future…"
"Don't you understand?" the girl said with a gentle smile.
"Understand what?" Chen Hao was stunned.
"It's you, that's enough."
"…"
Chen Hao stood motionless like a statue, feeling a strong ache in his eyes.
He really wanted to cry.
It was the same in the previous life.
And it's the same in this life.
She is always there, wholeheartedly thinking of him, even with the grand wedding that every girl looks forward to the most, to avoid delaying him…
They would just go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, invite some relatives and friends to witness, without any proper ceremony.
Get the certificate!
Get married!
"I'm sorry, I…" he said, filled with guilt.
He is the Great Marshal!
The Chairman of the China Science and Technology Federation!
The head of the Special Operations Department!
He is almost one of the most powerful people on the entire planet.
Reuniting with his wife in this life, starting over together, shouldn't the wedding be grand?
But…
There is no wedding dress.
No wedding.
No official announcement.
Very few people even know about it.
Because she didn't want to delay him with personal matters, nor did she want him to feel guilty for repeatedly delaying and failing to fulfill his promise, she planned this extremely simple, almost time-saving wedding.
Everything she does is for him!
There were no decorations, but there were groomsmen and bridesmaids.
Deng Xiaoyan, Sun Yue, Bao Siwen, and Bai Tong were the groomsmen.
The bridesmaids were Xia Qingmo's close female friends.
Li Ju took out her phone, opened the pre-downloaded wedding march and played it.
And so…
From the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau to the window for handling marriage certificates, it became the red carpet they walked on for the wedding.
"We owe Xiao Chen too much!" the old man sighed in a low voice.
He has made unparalleled contributions to China and now stands at such a high level, yet even a wedding is a luxury.
Only because.
An even heavier burden is on his shoulders!
China has over a billion people, but whether it was initially resisting North America, or the alien civilization, or the Hunters, he was the one who always stepped up.
Why should he bear all the pressure and difficulties?
Why is even rest a luxury?
"Miss Xia is thinking of the Great Marshal," General Wang took a deep breath.
Or rather.
In what way will it end?
Will human civilization safely survive the crisis, or will all of humanity be destroyed by a powerful enemy?
Only a few short years!
To complete so much work and overcome countless difficulties is as difficult as ascending to Heaven!
Once we fail, the entire human race will be destroyed, so what's the point of making up for the wedding?
"It will definitely succeed!" the old man said in a deep voice.
"I have unwavering faith in Xiao Chen!"
Conversely.
If even Chen Hao can't do it, then humanity is truly doomed.
"That's right!" the old man's mind stirred.
"Since there's no time to hold a wedding that matches his status, we can at least make the wedding more grand in other ways."
"How to make it more grand?" General Wang didn't quite understand.
"Think of a way yourself, quickly!"
"Yes!" General Wang ran out.
…
The wedding was simple.
But it had all the necessary procedures, such as groomsmen, bridesmaids, the wedding march, cutting the cake, and opening champagne.
In short, everything that needed to be done at the Civil Affairs Bureau was done, taking a little over an hour.
The wedding ended.
Everyone dispersed.
Although most of the people present didn't know about the future crisis, they knew that the wedding was so simple because time was of the essence—the remaining time should be left to the young couple.
Coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the young couple put on masks and sunglasses, and walked hand in hand on the side of the road.
"Husband!" Xia Qingmo suddenly called out.
After calling out, she laughed happily, shaking the marriage certificate in her hand.
In the previous life.
In this life.
They only have each other!
"Wife!" Chen Hao laughed happily, also shaking his marriage certificate: "I suddenly remembered… we didn't pay!"
The marriage registration fee is 9 yuan.
Didn't pay?
"So… we didn't spend a single cent? That's too cheap!" Xia Qingmo chuckled, as if she had gotten a great deal.
"…"
Chen Hao felt a little sad.
His wife said that to make him happy, but when he thought of the simple wedding, he couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Really? You got married so cheaply?"
Suddenly!
An untimely voice rang out.
Not far away, a girl in her twenties was live-streaming with various equipment.
She happened to hear the couple's conversation, her eyes lit up, and she walked over quickly, saying to the camera as she walked: "Babies! I've always said that girls must treat themselves well and never let cheap men take advantage of them!"
"Some countries around us have girls marrying into our country at low prices. We should jointly resist this!"
"We won't marry without a bride price!"
"How can those cheap men get enough of the few girls who marry over from those small countries?"
"Anyway, when I get married in the future, it must be a grand affair!"
A long time ago.
First, young women from Dongyang entered the Chinese marriage market in batches. As China continued to grow stronger, many women from North and South Korea, Southeast Asia, and other countries also married over.
They don't need such a high bride price.
What to do?
Most Chinese girls no longer pursue high bride prices, after all, they no longer have an advantage.
But at the same time, a group of 'boxers' emerged.
They advocated collective price increases, advocated that girls should treat themselves well, and advocated that if a woman gives birth to a man's child, he must pay a heavy price.
"Sister, let me interview you!" the girl said, walking up to Xia Qingmo: "How much bride price did you ask for when you got married?"
Xia Qingmo winked at Chen Hao, then said with a smile: "No bride price."
"Really?!" the girl said with an exaggerated expression, shouting at the live-streaming camera: "Did you hear that? This sister didn't even ask for a bride price! Babies, think about it, if you don't ask for a bride price, the man will treat you as a cheap commodity and won't cherish you!"
"You must demand a high bride price. Men only cherish what they spend a lot of money on, otherwise, let him lose both money and woman!"
Chen Hao frowned.
He was in a good mood after just getting married, but he ran into a boxer, what a bad luck!
"I don't think so!" Suddenly!
Just as the girl finished speaking, Xia Qingmo opened her mouth and said: "Whether you will be cherished depends on whether you are good enough and whether the other person is good enough—whether you meet the right person is the key!"
"No…" Hearing this, the girl became anxious: "Sister, you have to stand on the side of women, marriage is a lifelong matter…"
"I stand on the side of reason!" Xia Qingmo retorted directly.
"You…"
"Like you, advocating wrong views on marriage and love will harm other girls!"
"Are you all going to marry so poorly like you?" Seeing that she couldn't win the argument, the girl started to attack her personally: "I heard it earlier! You didn't spend a penny on the wedding. Are you saving money for the man? Men don't think that way, you'll have something to cry about in the future!"
"Hehe…" Seeing that the other party was exasperated and even started cursing, Xia Qingmo couldn't help but laugh.
"Marrying so poorly and still laughing, what a cheap commodity!" the girl mocked.
Just then.
A sound came from the night sky.
The sound was not very loud, but it was enough to attract people's attention. This area is located in a bustling downtown area, and many passersby looked up.
At this sight.
Countless people widened their eyes.
