After A Secret Marriage With The Trending Queen - Chapter 69
Chapter 69
With the last wedding’s “profound experience,” Shen Lu and Ye Qin sat down for a long talk to express their respective views on holding a make-up wedding.
“I think the wedding should be a big event. It’s only once in a lifetime, right?” Ye Qin said.
“But we already had one… although there were a few minor glitches in the middle. I actually think this time we don’t need it to be so grand. Just invite three to five good friends and our families,” Shen Lu countered.
They were at a stalemate, both convinced their opinion was the right one.
After about half an hour of this deadlock, Ye Qin finally couldn’t take it anymore and threw up her hands in surrender. “Fine, I’ll listen to you.”
Just as Shen Lu was about to cheer, Ye Qin added a condition: “Feed me tonight.”
Shen Lu: “…..”
With that, Ye Qin pounced on Shen Lu like a hungry wolf. After a tumultuous session, Shen Lu sat up in bed. The two were naked, embracing, and Shen Lu suddenly recalled their first time. She couldn’t help but poke Ye Qin’s chest with her finger, noting how soft and elastic it felt. “You heartless scoundrel.”
Ye Qin was momentarily confused, looking at her with a mix of surprise and amusement. “You’re touching me and calling me a heartless scoundrel?”
“Before, when I was your assistant, you slept with me, denied it, and then tried to pay me off. Humph! I heard everything you said to Sister Wang in the restroom that day.”
Ye Qin scratched her head. “Well, what should I do now? Let you sleep with me again?”
Shen Lu’s face flushed. She shyly burrowed under the blanket.
Ye Qin also pulled up the blanket and slipped underneath. The two became entangled once more.
…
Two months had passed since the last wedding. It was the middle of winter, and the temperature in A-City had dropped significantly. Neither woman wanted to wear wedding dresses in the cold, so they decided to hold the wedding on a warm, small island city in the south.
This time, they invited no media and few industry insiders—only both families gathered for a simple ceremony. It felt like only after completing this step would their marriage be truly complete. Ye Qin always felt she owed Shen Lu, especially since they had initially registered their marriage for her own selfish reasons. Since they couldn’t register their marriage again, they would hold an unforgettable wedding.
As the wedding date approached, Ye Qin unexpectedly received a notification from Sister Wang, who said she and Yang Li were also planning to hold a wedding and asked if they could do it together. Ye Qin asked Shen Lu’s opinion, and Shen Lu was fine with it, so Ye Qin was fine too. She had heard Wang Lin and Yang Li’s story; their journey hadn’t been easy, but it was a romantic tale of getting back together after a difficult separation.
After agreeing, they set off.
The hotel was booked early, and everything else was handed over to a reputable wedding planning company. Ye Qin and Shen Lu only needed to be the most beautiful brides on the day.
Even in winter, the small island city maintained an average temperature above . Wearing the heavy wedding dresses in this weather was cool rather than hot.
The red carpet beneath their feet was covered with equally bright, crimson rose petals. The semi-circular arch was adorned with roses of various colors. Father and Mother Shen, one in a dignified gown and the other in a crisp suit, watched their two happy daughters.
Grandma Ye was still physically robust and insisted on attending the island wedding. Ye Qin, unable to dissuade her, arranged for a caregiver to accompany her.
Standing next to Shen Jing was Ye Xun. He was only the second person present with a blood relation to Ye Qin and was a specially invited guest. Although he hadn’t interacted with his cousin Ye Qin for over twenty years, he was here because he had fallen for Shen Lu’s brother, Shen Jing. Moreover, Ye Qin and Shen Lu insisted on thanking him for saving their lives last time. Ye Xun graciously accepted the invitation.
…
Under the guidance of the officiant, Ye Qin and Shen Lu exchanged their vows.
During an emotional moment, Ye Xun couldn’t help but hug Shen Jing’s arm and whisper, “Why don’t we get married too?”
Shen Jing quietly pushed away the head trying to lean on him and awkwardly stared straight ahead. “There are people here. Don’t do that.”
“No, no, I want to,” Ye Xun whined softly.
Shen Jing kept a straight face. “If you keep misbehaving, I won’t sleep with you tonight.”
The other person immediately became obedient.
After the vows, it was time to exchange rings. They both took out their prepared rings and slipped them onto each other’s fingers, binding them for life.
“Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” The crowd below began to cheer.
Shen Lu felt awkward; their elders were watching. Ye Qin paid no mind, held her face, and kissed her deeply. The cheers from the audience grew louder, with some recording the moment on their phones.
That same night, when Shen Lu and Ye Qin were lying in the large bed in their hotel suite, they scrolled through the video, which had already gone viral among netizens.
“Beautiful Qin has been missing for a week. So, she went to have a wedding!” “Aww, so sweet! I want a kiss from Qinqin too.” “I’m officially envious of Shen Lu!” “Wuwuwu Shen Lu, give me back my Qinqin.” “Sending congratulations, wishing you a long and happy [sex-filled] life.” “There’s a typo in that comment.” “It was intentional.” “…..”
…
“Where did Shen Jing go? He disappeared right after the wedding,” Mother Shen asked, unable to find him anywhere.
Father Shen, completely drunk, leaned lazily on the soft hotel sofa, mumbling drunkenly, “Just go look in his room.”
Mother Shen eventually found Shen Jing’s room and rang the doorbell for a long time before Shen Jing hastily came out to open it. He was frantically pulling up his pants zipper and running a hand through his messy hair. “Mom, it’s you? What’s wrong this late?”
Just then, a voice called out shyly from inside, “Honey, who is it?”
Shen Jing’s face changed color. “Mom… this…..”
…
As the two were laughing and scrolling through Weibo comments, Grandma’s call suddenly interrupted them.
“Grandma, you’re still awake this late,” Ye Qin said.
“Good evening, Grandma,” Shen Lu leaned her head closer.
“Grandma just remembered something. When are you two going to let me hold my little great-grandchild?”
Ye Qin and Shen Lu exchanged wide-eyed glances, cold sweat beading on their foreheads.
“Grandma, this matter… needs careful planning,” Ye Qin’s voice trembled slightly.
“Grandma can’t wait. You need to get on it quickly,” she said before hanging up with a click.
Ye Qin gave an amused, helpless smile. Shen Lu, feeling exasperated, raised a small fist and lightly punched her. “This is your fault! You had to mention the idea of IVF to Grandma before!”
Ye Qin: “……”
How was I supposed to know Grandma would actually take it to heart?
