The day after the wedding was bliss. While others went for their honeymoon on this day. Qian Meng and Mo Qingchen shared it being lazy with their friends and family.
"Do you want another honeymoon?" Qingchen asked as they lay in bed, the conversation from the opening in front of the cabin floating into his ears.
"Honeymoon?" Qian Meng hummed. "Sure. I don't need it but it would be nice later on," she chimed.
He raised his brow in question.
"I am completely relaxed right now. I don't need a honeymoon just because of the ceremony," she said. "Maybe, when I just finished a difficult project, or you finished something stressful… let's spontaneously pack up and go somewhere. Let's take some time off and have our honeymoon then."
He raised his hand and cradled her cheek. "If I didn't know you, I would think you were trying to save money for both of us."
She giggled. "How are you sure I am not? Maybe I am running low on money," she stated.
Qingchen paused. "Are you?"
She shook her head slightly. "Not really. I might in the future, though." She didn't say further, but Qingchen had an inkling it was part of her plan which she wasn't quite sure of as of yet.
He shrugged and pulled closer to her. With her head burrowed in her chest and the noise of people outside, the two of them went to sleep… in broad daylight.
It was a novelty. A little piece of heaven before they went back to their exhausting daily life.

The sudden drop of the bridal line brought about a wave of excitement.
The little specs of The Shift that people saw did spark interest in them, but not in the way the marketing team had originally anticipated. By using the pieces at her wedding get up, they had suddenly taken on a meaning of their own.
This series suddenly signified the hardships of life and how we meander through it. How the jewelry walks alongside us, changing to what we need. Just like how Qian Meng and Mo Qingchen's relationship changed and became what it did.
The meaning was given because of the romance and excitement about getting to know how the couple got together. The production was magnificent, and the background music, the scenes from them playing in the water, taking a walk in the mountain trails… they all reflected in it.
Sales aside, people were gushing over Qian Meng and Qingchen.
[Where is the rest of the movie? I want to see the parts where they fall in love and then see them happily married with a dozen children in ten years.]
Qian Meng smiled at that. While her ceremony was true to her, people still wanted a movie. Like their life was something that made people curious.
She saw a reply that she agreed with.
[Mo Qingchen and Yun Qian Meng are public figures. We will see them grow over the years and build their family. I feel part of their family now…]
Then there were more comments…
[I think this is one of the most beautiful couples and weddings I have seen in my forty years of living.]
[I am so happy for these two. In a world where billionaires keep getting divorced and splitting their money, these two married again. If this isn't true love, I don't know what is.]
While the wedding vows got a lot of attention, it was the first dance that seemed to make people go crazy.
[I thought Mr. Mo was cold and calculating. But the way he looks at her. My heart… be still.]
[This is what I genuinely love about this couple. They are genuinely having a good time. They are not worried about remembering the moves. They just look at each other and have fun. It's like they gravitate to one another. Beautiful!]
[Is nobody going to talk about the absolutely stunning wedding dress and jewelry? I know that this is an impromptu ad, but… Mo Qingchen's suit matches the dress so well.]
[She took her shoe off to dance!]
[If this isn't me and my bride at my wedding, I don't want it.]
[I feel like this is one of the moments towards the end of the movie where it ends happily ever after and then some more.]
[Asking hubby to marry me again.]
[I don't even have someone I like, but I think I am going to buy a wedding dress and wear it on the street. I will support this couple and help them make money. Chances of happiness increase.]
This was a recurring theme. The sales were high. And companies scrambled to come up with bridal collections to make some money off the popularity of Mo Qingchen and Qian Meng's wedding reveal.
While they did profit, they couldn't beat the sales of Venus. Qian Meng had considered The Shift a lost cause in China, but through this, it boomed. Their market research had been blown out of the window and everything was selling like hotcakes.
She almost wanted to cry.
But these days… she was really casual in her business. Her life didn't revolve around it anymore. She found herself going to Mo Qingchen's parents' house and spending time with Li Li Hua and Mo Yize. Mo Xiao Chen was a constant in her life, too.
The family she craved for was suddenly before her eyes. And she wouldn't have it another way.
On the other side, her own family was making her life slightly less happy. Since the video came out, Yun Sui Bo had called her and given her a piece of his mind. Jiang Xin was no better, still using whatever money she got to buy Venus stock. Qian Meng was frankly tired and looking forward to getting all the information required to take this toxic couple down.
"You invited the father of the man you despise and put in jail but not your own," Yun Sui Bo started. Qian Meng was sitting on the passenger's side, looking at her phone with a bland expression.
Mo Qingchen, who was seated beside her glanced at her, making sure that he didn't need to step in and destroy his father-in-law and protect his wife.
