Chapter 271 Exchanging Rings, Su Qingge Cried So Much Her Makeup Was Rubbed
The gate opened.
As the solemn sound of a pipe organ resounded through the dome, Su Qingge, wearing a wedding dress named "Galaxy," walked gracefully in a beam of light that seemed to descend from heaven.
At that moment, the entire venue was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The nano-light-sensing wedding dress designed by Lin Zhou shimmered with a mystical hue under the dim light, as if the most brilliant Milky Way of summer had been shattered and delicately sewn onto her skirt.
Su Qingge walked very slowly, each step feeling like she was stepping on Lin Zhou's heart.
Lin Zhou stood straight at the end of the red carpet, his gaze piercing through the long red carpet, through those seven dark and oppressive years, and fixed on the woman walking towards him.
His face, which was usually decisive and ruthless and never wavered in the face of thousands of troops, now showed a rare, genuine tremor.
Finally, she walked up to him.
Su Qingge's hands trembled slightly. Through the gossamer-thin white gauze, she could see that in Lin Zhou's deep, ocean-like eyes, her only reflection was now visible.
"I originally thought that I might have to guard that unspeakable secret in the shadows for the rest of my life, until I take it to my grave."
Lin Zhou didn't wait for the emcee to speak; he took the microphone directly, his voice low and hoarse, yet possessing a penetrating power that could pierce the soul.
His voice was broadcast live across all platforms, instantly reaching every corner of the globe.
Seven years ago, I had to play a role that made everyone think I was a good-for-nothing, a hopeless 'nemesis'.
Lin Zhou looked at Su Qingge, his eyes filled with a tenderness that seemed to melt her.
"I watched you fight alone amidst the ridicule and sarcasm of this capital city, watched you turn yourself into an iceberg to support the Su family, while I could only pretend to be crazy and say sorry to your back every night."
"These seven years have been your loneliness, but also my salvation."
"Qingge, in my life, I, Lin Zhou, have killed people, crossed borders, and stood at the very top of capital, coldly observing the world."
"But with you, I've always been a loser. I lost to your persistence and to the home you gave me."
Lin Zhou spoke slowly and deliberately. This sudden public confession was like a heavy hammer blow, brutally smashing through Su Qingge's psychological defenses that she had been holding up for so long.
Su Qingge's eyes instantly turned red.
She originally wanted to maintain the last bit of dignity of the eldest daughter of the Su family and the icy female CEO.
But when the grievances and truths that had been deliberately concealed were revealed to the public by this man in the most arrogant yet gentle way, she completely collapsed.
"You bastard...you big bastard..."
Su Qingge sobbed, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls, soaking the expensive white veil.
She cried so hard that her usually meticulously applied makeup was noticeably smudged and blurred by her tears.
Her makeup was ruined, making her look like a disheveled little kitten.
But in Lin Zhou's eyes, this was the most heartbreaking and most captivating sight in the world.
Lin Zhou tenderly reached out his left hand and naturally lifted her veil.
He ignored the shocked gazes of the global leaders in the audience and the frantic chatter of hundreds of millions of people in the live stream.
He gently extended his fingertips and softly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Stop crying. If you keep crying, our daughter will laugh at me for bullying you when she comes up here."
Lin Zhou coaxed softly, his tone unlike that of the murderous god who slaughtered an entire family in the abandoned factory.
He should have wiped it off, because the moment he did, Su Qingge's pent-up emotions were completely released. The more she wiped, the more tears she shed, which, mixed with the dark marks of mascara, made her look ridiculous.
"You've been bullying me...you've been bullying me for seven years..."
Su Qingge cried and laughed at the same time, her two little hands tightly gripping Lin Zhou's clothes, causing unsightly wrinkles in the handmade dress.
"You...you're going to make me look bad in front of the whole world..."
The guests in the audience, those bigwigs who could shake the stock market with a stomp of their feet, all remained tacitly silent at this moment.
Looking at the couple who had been teetering on the brink of life and death and had endured seven years of hardship in the darkness, their eyes no longer showed calculation, but rather a rare expression of emotion.
Just when the atmosphere was at its most touching, a series of hurried and cheerful footsteps suddenly came from one side of the red carpet.
"Da da da da..."
Wearing a white, layered tutu dress and a small princess crown on her head, Xiao Nuonuo looks like a lost little fairy.
She struggled to carry a dark red velvet box in her chubby little hands as she ran along the red carpet.
"Daddy! Mommy! Nuonuo's here to deliver the baby!"
The little guy ran and shouted, his sweet, childlike voice breaking the slightly somber mood of the scene.
She almost slipped on the pile of expensive carpet petals because she was running too fast, which startled Old Chen and Bloodhound in the audience, who both took half a step forward at the same time.
Fortunately, Nuonuo has an excellent sense of balance, and after wobbling a couple of times, she stood firmly on her feet again.
She ran between the two of them, looked up at her beautifully sculpted little face, and gazed at her mother who was crying her eyes out.
"Mommy, don't cry. If Daddy misbehaves, Nuonuo will spank him!"
Su Qingge burst into laughter through her tears, sniffed awkwardly, and reached out to touch her daughter.
Lin Zhou squatted down and affectionately rubbed his daughter's head.
He readily accepted the brocade box, inside which lay two black diamond rings that shimmered with an eerie and profound light under the lamp.
That was the unique identifier that Lin Zhou personally etched using the underlying logic of the "source code," signifying that he would never change it in this lifetime.
Lin Zhou picked up the smaller one and firmly took Su Qingge's hand, which was still stained with tears.
He stared at her intently.
"Su Qingge, this time, no one can take you away from me."
Just as he was about to put the ring on Su Qingge's finger, Nuonuo suddenly leaned close to Lin Zhou's ear and whispered something.
Lin Zhou was stunned for a moment, then his expression turned strange.
Su Qingge was somewhat bewildered.
"What did Nuonuo say?"
Lin Zhou suppressed a laugh, glanced at the big shots around him, and then at his wife who was crying like a "cat".
She said, "Hurry up and kiss your dad, or she'll hide that little red box."
A burst of good-natured laughter erupted from the audience.
Su Qingge blushed deeply, and before she could react, Lin Zhou had already lowered his head domineeringly.
"Well……"
At this luxurious, globally watched moment, Lin Zhou forcefully kissed those lips that were still wet with salty tears.
Nuonuo excitedly covered her eyes, but left a large gap between her little fingers, happily peeking out.
"Daddy, after the kiss, can we eat the big cake?"
