755: Chapter 75 Wishing You Happiness

It wasn't that familiar rolls-royce phantom.

Instead, it was a line of black security vehicles called "Fortress," designed with a futuristic look.

Liu Hui was a bit confused.

"Is such a grand display necessary just to go out for a meal?"

Shen Yan held Shen An in his arms and led Youyou by the hand, while his other arm rested around Liu Hui's waist.

"Today is a special day; the security level needs to be a bit higher."

His explanation was flawless.

The motorcade didn't head toward any restaurant in the city.

Instead, it drove straight toward the "Tenglong" Sub-orbital Spaceport on the outskirts of Jingzhou.

When the silver-white "teng long no. 1" aerospace plane, resembling a dragon from myth, appeared before her eyes, Liu Hui was completely stunned.

"AYan, where... where are we going?"

Youyou, however, cheered excitedly.

"Wow! It's the big plane Daddy's company built! Youyou has ridden in it before!"

Shen Yan pinched his daughter's little face.

"I'm taking Mommy and your brother to a very beautiful place."

Holding Liu Hui, he stepped onto the private airbridge.

"Close your eyes. I'll tell you when we arrive."

Liu Hui leaned against his chest, feeling the plane take off so smoothly there wasn't even a hint of vibration.

The view outside the window changed from the city to a sea of clouds, and then to the deep reaches of space.

Finally, when the plane began its descent, a brilliant azure blue occupied the entire window.

"You can open your eyes now."

Shen Yan's voice sounded in her ear.

Liu Hui slowly opened her eyes.

She saw it.

An island covered in an endless sea of flowers.

In the center of the island stood a white castle that looked like something out of a fairy tale.

Countless white tulips and pink roses stretched from the coastline all the way to the foot of the castle, merging into a fragrant ocean.

The plane landed on the helipad in front of the castle.

The hatch opened.

Melodious classical music, accompanied by the sea breeze and the scent of flowers, rushed toward them.

Two rows of people stood at the bottom of the airbridge.

On the left were her family and friends.

Her neighbor, Grandma Liu, was so moved she was wiping away tears.

Shen Yan's younger sister, Shen Ya, had fully recovered and was smiling at her.

Shen Yan's brother, Chen Guangke, dressed in a sharp formal suit, was winking at them.

Wu Ya, An Ran, Ning Ke... all the familiar faces were there.

And on the right...

Liu Hui's breath hitched.

She saw Prince Talal, who frequently appeared on the covers of financial magazines.

Beside him was a tech giant from Silicon Valley, the founder of Nexus AI, Alex Reed.

There was even a crown prince from a small European nation, and several chairmen of conglomerates she had only seen in the news who were influential enough to affect the global economy.

All of these people were standing there quietly now with kind smiles.

It was as if they were welcoming a queen.

"AYan... this..."

Liu Hui's mind went blank; she gripped Shen Yan's arm tightly, her voice trembling.

Shen Yan didn't say a word.

He simply took her hand and led her down the airbridge.

Chen Guangke came forward and handed Shen Yan a box.

"Boss, everything is ready."

Shen Yan opened the box.

Inside was a pink diamond ring of ultimate brilliance.

The diamond was like a frozen star, flowing with a dreamlike radiance.

"tears of the starry sea!"

Someone in the crowd let out an irrepressible gasp.

A complex smile appeared on Prince Talal's face.

He knew the value of that diamond.

He knew even better what price Shen Yan had paid to obtain it.

Ten "Skylark" aircraft.

That wasn't just money; it was Future Technology capable of changing the military and civil transportation landscape of a nation.

This man had traded the future for a spark of brilliance on his wife's fingertip.

Shen Yan dropped to one knee.

Under the gaze of a group of the most powerful people in the world.

Amidst the blessings of family and friends.

He looked up at the love of his life.

"Huihui, you said you didn't care about a wedding."

"You said it would be enough for the family to just have a meal together."

"But I care."

"My wife, the wife of Shen Yan, deserves everything best this world has to offer."

"I once had nothing, but it was you and Youyou who gave me a home and let me crawl back from hell."

"Now, I want to give you a wedding worthy of you."

"Will you... marry me?"

Liu Hui's tears had long since broken through their banks.

She covered her mouth, unable to say a word, and could only nod frantically.

Shen Yan placed the "tears of the starry sea" on her finger.

The ring fit perfectly, without the slightest error.

He stood up and pulled her into his arms.

The crowd erupted into thunderous applause.

"Wait a moment!"

A clear voice rang out.

Shen Ya, wearing a pure white formal dress, walked over with a smile.

Behind her followed an elegant elderly foreign lady.

"Brother, Sister-in-law hasn't changed into her wedding dress yet."

Only then did Liu Hui notice that the elderly lady was holding a large gift box in her hands.

When the gift box was opened.

A flawless white wedding dress, adorned with countless tiny diamonds, appeared before everyone.

The design of that wedding dress was simple yet noble, as if it were not a creation of the mortal world but woven from moonlight and stars.

"Heavens... it's the work of Vera Blanc!"

Among the guests, a fashion mogul from France cried out in shock.

"Didn't she retire five years ago?"

Vera Blanc herself walked up to Liu Hui with a smile.

"Mrs. Shen, it is an honor to design a wedding dress for you."

"Mr. Shen's love for you moved me."

"This piece, I call 'The One.' It is the only, and the last, work I have produced since my retirement."

Surrounded by the crowd, Liu Hui was led into the castle's dressing room.

When she reappeared, the entire world seemed to pale in comparison.

Youyou's little mouth hung open as she circled around her mother.

"Mommy is Snow White!"

Shen Yan stepped forward, his eyes filled with an unbreakable tenderness.

He took Liu Hui's hand and walked toward the altar paved with fresh flowers.

There were no tedious ceremonies.

Nor were there any long-winded speeches.

Under the witness of the priest, they exchanged their vows.

"...From this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, I will love you and cherish you, until death do us part."

Shen Yan's voice was firm and clear.

With tears in her eyes, Liu Hui repeated the same vows.

Wu Ya stood in a corner of the crowd, quietly watching this scene.

She held a glass of champagne, the liquid inside swaying slightly.

She watched Shen Yan's tender movements as he wiped away Liu Hui's tears.

She watched that focused intensity when they embraced and kissed, as if only the two of them remained in the entire world.

She suddenly felt at peace.

She had always thought that what she liked was the decisive and commanding CEO Shen in the business world.

It wasn't until today that she understood.

What Shen Yan truly wanted was never a business empire.

It was a home.

A harbor where he could drop all his defenses and return to being an ordinary husband and father.

And Liu Hui was his harbor.

She raised her glass toward the newlyweds from a distance and said silently,

"I wish you happiness, Shen Yan."
