Huo Yun Chen and Xia Yu's wedding was held a year later.
After Xia Yu completed her internship in F Country, she returned to her former hospital and was given a promotion. Because of that, she became busy and it was hard to think of a wedding.
Huo Yun Chen knew that Xia Yu liked her profession as a nurse and wanted her to get used to her new job before they could plan their wedding.
The wedding was held in a private event just between close friends and family. None of the reporters were allowed to come in.
However, Huo Yun Chen let the agency post their pre-wedding photos to share the joyful event in his life with his fans. Huo Yun Chen also wrote a hand-written letter to his fans.
When his fans saw his letter on his social media, they were teared up.
Many of the fans have been following his love story with the nurse from the very beginning. Some of them had not thought that they would end up together. However, seeing that Huo Yun Chen had found someone to spend his life with, the fans were very happy as well
On the wedding day, the sky was bright with little clouds.
The two of them had a western-style wedding. The hall was decorated in white laces and pink flowers all around.
The moment Xia Yu appeared at the door in her white dress, Huo Yun Chen was unable to take his eyes off her. Even when his bride had arrived at his side, Huo Yun Chen was still in a daze.
It was the minister who had to remind him that they could start the ceremony that Huo Yun Chen finally snapped out of his trance.
The moment the couple completed their vow and sealed it with a kiss, the guests cheered up happily.
There were congratulatory and auspicious words all around.
Xia Yu did not invite her mother to her wedding but only called the caretaker to let her know about it. A wedding is a happy occasion and Xia Yu did not want the person who had made her unhappy the most to show up at her wedding.
Huo Yun Chen's family has been very welcoming to Xia Yu. Mother Huo especially liked this daughter-in-law as she liked to listen to her chatters. Meanwhile, Father Huo liked her because she was smart and could discuss academics matter with him.
Xia Yu never had a good relationship with her parents. Seeing that Huo Yun Chen's parents' warm treatment warmed her heart. They were her parents-in-law, but they treated her better than her parents.
Song Xing Xing and Lu Xun attended the wedding with the twin girls.
By this time, the girls could already walk and liked to run around very much.
Before the wedding banquet began, Song Xing Xing took the girls to Xia Yu's room to visit her. Both Lu Jing and Lu Xia saw Xia Yu dressed prettily in a white dress and were unable to look away from her.
Xia Yu watched the babies and was amused to see that they did not run to her side like they usually did.
"Xiao Jing, Xiao Xia, don't you want to come to Auntie Xia Yu?"
The girls walked over to Xia Yu and allowed this aunt to kiss and hug them.
After a while, the girls walked to their mother with their short legs. They exchanged a glance and Lu Xia whispered, "Mommy, is that really Auntie Xia Yu?"
The baby's voice was milky and a little unclear.
Song Xing Xing nodded. "Mhmm, you don't recognize her anymore?"
Lu Xia whispered again. "She's pretty."
Lu Jing nodded. "A Princess."
"Well, Auntie Xia Yu is a bride today. A bride gets to wear a pretty dress and become a princess."
Lu Jing's eyes lit up. "Mommy, I want to become a bride too."
Lu Xia quickly agreed. "Me too."
Song Xing Xing was amused with their words. "Well, you can't be a bride until you are already a grown-up."
"Why not?" Lu Xia was not happy with this.
"Because it's the law." Song Xing Xing saw the unhappy look on the girls' faces and kissed their cheek to ease their mood. "Wait until you graduate from college. Then we will talk about it again."
The girls were not satisfied with this answer. When they go to see their father again, they tried to convince him to let them be a bride. However, Lu Xun's face turned darker.
The man watched his daughters and began to worry. The girls were very pretty as dolls. What if some brat would steal his daughter away in the future?
Lu Jing and Lu Xia had quickly forgotten the matter about wanting to be a bride after they saw the balloons in the hall. However, Lu Xun could not forget this matter and would think of it for a long time.
Just like this, Lu Xun has become the protective father towards his girls, especially when he saw some boys approaching his daughters.
When the banquet ended, Xia Yu returned to the wedding room to remove the heavy makeup while Huo Yun Chen had to stay in the hall to entertain the guests and drink.
Thinking that Xia Yu would be hungry after a long ceremony, Mother Huo came to the room with some light food to help pad her stomach.
"Mom, why are you here?"
"Yun Chen was still with the boys, drinking." Mother Huo sighed. "I didn't know when will they allow him to return to your side."
"It's fine. It has been a while since they got together."
Many of Huo Yun Chen's friends were the people he had grown up with. Since it was a rare occasion for them to gather and had fun, Xia Yu naturally would not mind if he spend a little more time with them.
"Mom saw that you didn't eat that much earlier," Mother Huo said. "I was worried that the food might not be to your liking and had let someone buy something lighter."
Her heart warmed. "Mom, you don't have to."
"You still need to eat a little more," Mother Huo said. "You have been busy going here and there for the wedding. Mom worried that you would be too tired."
Xia Yu blushed. As soon as her makeup was removed, Xia Yu stood up, wanting to walk to the dining table. However, just as she took a step, her head was spinning and she immediately passed out.
Fortunately, Mother Xia was around and was quick enough to hold her.
Thinking that the girl was unwell, Mother Huo quickly called the Chinese physician who happen to be a friend of their family.
When Xia Yu woke up a while later, she was surprised to see a group of people standing around her.
Huo Yun Chen was the first to notice that she had woken up. His brow furrowed as he looked at his wife in distress.
"What happened?" Xia Yu asked. "Why are there too many people around?"
Hearing her voice, Mother Huo walked over with a big smile on her face. "Xia Yu, you need to take care of your body a little more."
Xia Yu recalled that she had passed out the moment she stood up and thought that she was too tired. She did not suspect anything from Mother Huo's words.
The physician walked over and smiled. "I will ask someone to send over some nutritious herbs to help her replenish her energy. The first few months are the most important. You need to be very careful."
Xia Yu looked at Huo Yun Chen, puzzled. She only passed out because she was too tired, right? What first few months? What important?
"What happened?" Xia Yu whispered. "Am I sick?"
Huo Yun Chen looked back with complicated emotion. "You're not sick. But Xia Yu, you're... pregnant."
His words stunned her. Xia Yu placed a hand on her abdomen and was unable to think straight.
It seemed that a months ago, they have indeed fooled around without protection as she had thought that it was her safe day. It couldn't be that they have hit jackpot?
"I have already told Lin You to book an appointment at the hospital.. Tomorrow, let's go for a check-up."
