Chapter 700: Ten Wedding Dresses for My Wife

"Absolutely not!" Mother Chen shook her head immediately. "It definitely won't be forced, no, I mean something like that will absolutely not happen. Where those two want to live is up to them, we parents certainly won't interfere."

Father Chen replied excitedly, "Right, if he wants to be a live-in son-in-law, that's fine too. As long as they love each other, we won't meddle, right?"

"There's no need for him to marry into the family. My previous request was indeed a bit excessive. But on the matter of the child's surname, I must stress this — if they have a child, I hope the first child takes the Chen surname, then the second can take our Sheng family surname. That's not too much to ask, is it?" Father Sheng had already made a concession.

Hearing this, the Chen family couple, whose hearts had been hanging in suspense, breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, thank goodness. It's just this one request.

"Not too much at all! Lots of young couples do this nowadays. Very open-minded!" Mother Chen forced a smile.

Father Chen had no objections either.

"Then it's settled," Father Sheng said, quite satisfied with how things stood.

This way, the two children wouldn't have to face too many troubles. At least the obstacles were fewer.

The rest would depend on how the two of them managed their relationship.

When the news of Father Sheng's visit to the family reached Little White Dove's ears, he was completely shocked.

After Father Sheng returned, he said guiltily, "Uncle, my parents are honest farmers. If they've offended you in any way, please don't be angry."

Father Sheng said sternly, "They didn't offend me. In fact, we reached a deal."

Could he be planning to separate me and Xinyi… Little White Dove was a bit uneasy.

"You're not coming for New Year's Eve dinner? You planning to break up?" Father Sheng asked.

Father Sheng's words made him tremble.

"Uncle, you mean you're not against me and Xinyi being together?" Little White Dove was instantly excited.

Father Sheng said meaningfully, "I told you to come back to my house for New Year's, and you think that means separating you two? Is that how reading comprehension works?"

Although Father Sheng looked stern, Little White Dove didn't find him frightening at all.

"Uncle, thank you!"

"Stop. Don't get too happy too early. Whether I'll actually let you marry Xinyi still depends on what she wants. She's very into you right now, but if you treat her the slightest bit badly, I'll absolutely split you two apart in no time!"

However, Father Sheng's words didn't make Little White Dove shrink back in the slightest.

"Understood! I'll definitely treat her well. If I ever betray Xinyi, I'll be the first to turn myself in! I'll leave her on my own!"

Father Sheng actually trusted Little White Dove quite a bit. After all, the fact that Suya had come looking for him meant that Little White Dove wasn't the type to string people along.

But he had no way of knowing whether a person's heart would change later on.

He definitely hoped his daughter could be happy for a lifetime.

"Chen Ge, I've already succeeded in persuading your parents. They won't make things difficult for you two anymore. But I also need to tell you — from here on, I'll be an outsider. I won't get involved anymore. Whether you two end up together or split, it'll have nothing to do with me," Father Sheng said sternly.

This time, he wasn't helping Little White Dove. He was helping his own daughter.

But that didn't mean he wanted to create the illusion that he would help Little White Dove whenever problems came up in the future. That would absolutely do no good for his daughter's future.

Little White Dove nodded. He was already extremely grateful to Father Sheng.

If Father Sheng hadn't intervened, this matter probably wouldn't have been settled so easily. Although he didn't know what the other party had actually done, it was certainly beneficial to him in every way.

As a man, he should be the one shielding his girlfriend from the wind and rain, not letting someone else stand up for him.

Little White Dove nodded, his attitude still very sincere. "Alright, I'll listen to Uncle. I'll definitely work hard to solve every problem from now on, and treat Xinyi well."

And so this matter gradually came to a close.

……

The next day.

Jiang Muye took Leng Ruoli to the wedding venue that had been planned out.

The banquet area was filled with phone-call elements and lots of starlight lamps. The lighting was beautiful, forming a dreamy, fairy-tale world.

Little deer decorated the surroundings of the castle, beautiful and precious flowers were everywhere, and even overhead there were rich, moving, precious blooms. A beautiful stretch of galaxy flowed along the walkway.

With every step, the tiles beneath glowed, as if a fairy wand had sprinkled magic over everything.

The tone was very light and lively, satisfying everyone's girlish heart.

When Leng Ruoli saw it, she was completely stunned.

It was as if she had stepped into a fairy-tale world.

In that moment, she blurted out, "Alice in Wonderland?"

"Yes, I more or less copied some elements, then had the wedding planners design and upgrade it. You're Alice." Jiang Muye's gaze was very gentle.

Alice in Wonderland was a story Leng Ruoli loved very much. Every time, whether it was the animation or the movie, she had to watch it several times.

Naturally, Jiang Muye chose to use this element, adapting it into the wedding venue.

Leng Ruoli was deeply moved. She threw herself into Jiang Muye's arms. "I love it so much!"

"Satisfied already? There's more."

Jiang Muye smiled, then made a call, having someone bring over the super beautiful wedding dresses.

When all ten wedding dresses were laid out before Leng Ruoli, she was stunned.

"This… all for me to wear?"

"If you want to wear them all, I have no objections. But I hope you'll pick the one that suits you best as the main wedding dress." Jiang Muye smiled.

"This is way too many… so many choices!" Leng Ruoli was astonished.

"Too many? I actually think it's too few. I had these custom-made with heavy craftsmanship to give you a surprise, but I didn't want to limit your choices, so I had extra dresses designed." Jiang Muye gazed at Leng Ruoli affectionately, his eyes full of love. "I definitely want my darling to be the most beautiful bride. Indulge this selfish wish of mine."

Leng Ruoli's nose went red. "I'm pregnant now, so I don't look good. I'm afraid I can't be the most beautiful."

"How can that be? Even with a big belly, you're still beautiful! You have even more charm than before, radiating maternal love, giving off a gentler feeling." Jiang Muye wasn't saying it insincerely — he truly felt that way.

Leng Ruoli looked much gentler than before. Especially since she gave off a sweet fragrance like a peach, sometimes even a milky scent. Very captivating.

The more Jiang Muye spent time with her, the more he liked her.

"If anyone says you're not the most beautiful one at the wedding, I'll kick them out immediately!"

Hearing Jiang Muye's bold tone, Leng Ruoli burst out laughing. "But you're the groom then! Kicking people out to their face, that's really too much!"

Jiang Muye said matter-of-factly, "They don't respect my wife, so why should I respect them? I'm not a masochist. Besides, protecting your wife — isn't that just the natural way of things?"
