“Xiao Xiao, I never noticed it before, but now I really see how great your figure is! You have such curves, and you feel amazing!”
“Haha, haha! So ticklish, so ticklish... Lan Baobao, just wait and see how I’ll tease your baby in the future…”
In the pitch-black night, the building was quiet, with only laughter echoing from this room.
A beautiful figure outside the door blinked a couple of times through the crack.
Contract marriage...
This figure outside slowly savored these four words, with bright eyes shining mischievously and a sly smile appearing.
After spending a peaceful week, Lan Baobao finally received a planning project. On one hand, she took care of Ye Zixun's daily life as his assistant, and on the other hand, she and Amy took on a project together. In the blink of an eye, a week had passed, and there was only one week left until her wedding ceremony with Ye Zixun. The closer it got to that date, the more unsettled Lan Baobao felt. The wedding dress that Ye Zixun had customized for her had already arrived at the Ye Family mansion. According to reports, the designer of this dress was Ye Ziyun. The craftsmen and tailors worked swiftly to complete it, hanging it in the grand hall of the Ye Family Old Residence, shining white and captivating everyone’s gaze.
The wedding dress was incredibly beautiful and luxurious, but the color…
Ye Zixun asked in confusion, “Sister, I’m having a wedding, not a funeral. Why did you bring me a purple-black wedding dress? Are you trying to make me look like I’m going to strangle my new sister-in-law?”
Mumu and Ruo Ruo also surrounded the gown in awe.
Brother Mu laughed and said, “Auntie, did you make my mommy's divorce dress too?”
“Is that how it is? Ruo Ruo saw on TV that there are divorce ceremonies now. Are Daddy and Mommy going to hold a divorce ceremony too? When is that?”
“Daddy and Mommy don’t need to get divorced right now. I’ll tell you when they do!”
Stinky Kid……
Ye Zixun frowned slightly, while Lan Baobao's face twitched even more. Seeing that the atmosphere in the family was not good, he quickly stepped in to ease the tension: "Who says wedding dresses have to be white? A black and purple wedding dress is also an option, as long as it looks beautiful and matches a certain theme. I believe our wedding can be stunning, and besides, I'll be the only one wearing this color dress—how special is that? Can I go try it on now?"
"Of course! Zi Xun, look, my sister-in-law has great taste. Lan Baobao, don't worry, I will make sure you become the center of attention at the wedding, dazzling all those women. You'll be wearing the dress I designed for you, making headlines in fashion!"
Lan Baobao smiled as she hugged the wedding dress and walked into the room. Her ideal wedding dress was snow white, but this one was made of black and purple fabric. The white diamonds and colorful gemstones on it were beautiful and eye-catching, but wouldn't it seem a bit dull? Was Ye Ziyun's theme really going to be a Black Widow series?
Ye Zixun had already lost hope for the wedding dress designed by his sister. Fortunately, he had asked another designer to create a dress earlier. If Ye Ziyun's design didn't work out, he would have Lan Baobao wear something from another designer.
"Um, Ye Zixun..."
While sipping red wine and lost in thought, he heard a shy and delicate voice calling him. He casually turned his head and saw Lan Baobao wearing that black and purple strapless wedding dress. The fabric seemed to reveal a hint of flesh-colored lining beneath it. The color and embellishments of the dress complemented Lan Baobao's skin tone and figure beautifully.
Ye Zixun's gaze moved from her face down to her slender waist and curvy hips, then slowly up to her chest. His eyes sparkled with admiration. Lan Baobao, feeling shy, glanced at Ye Zixun's face. From the way he looked at her just now, she knew she must look stunning.
Earlier, when she looked in the mirror, she realized how enchanting she appeared; her confidence was almost overflowing.
She no longer looked like an orphaned girl without higher education but rather like a princess stepping out of a castle. Just one dress transformed her completely; what seemed like a difficult metamorphosis was accomplished in an instant.
The astonished expression on Ye Zixun's face did not go unnoticed by those around them. He did not hide his admiration as he carefully examined her body and features, saying, "You look beautiful; this dress suits you perfectly—really... very beautiful."
"Thank you." Lan Baobao's cheeks flushed with two rosy spots as she looked down at Ruo Ruo, extending her hand: "Sweetheart, do you think Mommy looks good in this?"
Ruo Ruo tugged at her wedding dress and flashed a brilliant smile at Ye Ziyun, saying, "Auntie, if you can make someone like my mommy look good, then you can help me look good too! I'm going to be the flower girl!"
"Don't worry, I've already prepared everything! I've changed the wedding venue to an ancient castle in France. I called someone yesterday to get everything ready. All the guests will be required to wear French-style clothing; no other styles will be accepted. When you walk down the purple carpet surrounded by symphony music and lights, with feathers floating around, it will definitely be an unforgettable wedding."
"Wait a minute, I remember the wedding venue was supposed to be by the seaside."
"Oh please, how can the seaside scenery match the dress I've designed? The only suitable backdrop for my outfit is an ancient castle or something similar. I've decided to change the location to a castle in France; do you disagree?"
"I agree, you can do whatever you want!"
Ye Zixun sighed helplessly. Ye Ziyun was his older sister by two years, but she only knew how to do a few things: design, eat, play, and fight. Although Ye Ziyun was nominally his sister, he had always indulged her antics and cleaned up after her messes. Strictly speaking, Ye Zixun felt more like Ye Ziyun's father.
Brother Mu looked around at his dad and mom. His impression of his mom was that she was silly, naive, loved to take advantage of situations, but had a kind heart that was easily deceived and often exploited; yet she had a hint of cunning.
His mom was the cutest mom in the world and deserved the best wedding.
"Ahem!" Brother Mu stood up from the sofa with his hands on his hips and said, "According to folk customs, men and women shouldn't meet before getting married. Dad and Mom, wouldn't it be better for you two to avoid each other from now on?"
Ye Zixun raised an eyebrow. Although this kid was his son, he was just too unlikable, always trying to compete with him for women.
Lan Baobao was his mom; what could he do about it?
"You've grown up so much; do I really need to care about these things with your mom? By the way, have you finished your kindergarten assignments?"
Brother Mu threw a disdainful glance at Ye Zixun, a sarcastic smile on his lips that mirrored Ye Zixun's own. It was as if he were looking into a funhouse mirror. Brother Mu scoffed, "Can that kind of kindergarten assignment even be called homework? I've already completed my studies up to high school, so don't expect me to give you any face. If you bother me with this kind of nonsense again, don't blame me for being rude!"
"You..."
Ye Zixun felt a surge of anger at that smug face, his chest burning with frustration. However, when he saw two things, he couldn't bring himself to scold.
Ye Ziyun, noticing the situation, hugged the two children and walked toward the backyard while laughing, "Alright, alright, your mommy's outfit is all set. Tomorrow you'll try again. Auntie will take you to see the new golden retriever we bought in the back!"
"Mommy, go to bed early tonight and don't stay up too late!"
Ruo Ruo and Mumu turned back to remind her as they walked away.
In truth, their worries were unfounded because if Ye Zixun wanted to do something, he couldn't rely solely on Lan Baobao's strength. Ye Zixun's gaze lingered on her, focused and attentive.
Lan Baobao felt uncomfortable under his stare.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do I have something dirty on my face?"
"Is it wrong to admire someone who looks beautiful? That person named Pan calls you 'Baby,' doesn't everyone call you that?"
"My parents named me Lan Baobao; 'Baobao' is part of my name. Do you... hold a grudge about that?"
His woman could only be called by one name that he alone could use; no one else was allowed to call her that. 'Baby'? Since others called her that, he didn't want to use it anymore.
Ye Zixun thought for a moment and said, "Don't you have any other nicknames?"
"No."
"Then fine, I'll just call you 'Bun Bun' from now on. It's just like 'Baby,' both are reduplicated words. What does that face mean? Do you have an opinion about my decision?"
She immediately shook her wrinkled face vigorously and shyly said, "I wouldn't dare. Whatever you decide is fine! But you can't call me that in front of the company. As the dignified wife of President Ye, being called 'Bun Bun' by my husband would lead to all sorts of chaotic news spreading around, right?"
"Don't worry." Ye Zixun held her hand and said, "I will only call you that when there are no outsiders around. Bun Bun, you look great in this outfit."
"Thank you."
Lan Baobao always felt a bit awkward about this name, but since it was given by Ye Zixun himself, she felt she couldn't really argue against it.
The two sat in a candlelit room, the rich aroma of red wine intoxicating them. Ye Zixun noticed Lan Baobao's beauty and felt good, his smile radiating warmth unlike usual.
Lan Baobao looked at his ear and profile, her expression becoming dreamy. Her mind wasn't quite clear as she softly asked a rather silly question: "Ye Zixun, have you ever loved anyone?"
Her voice was gentle, and Ye Zixun's smile suddenly changed. He silently reached out to hold her hand and placed it on his chest, gazing at her with deep affection as he said, "Yes, I love you!"
