Yukinoshita's Correction Method
Dong Yunshan lowered his head and kissed her slightly upturned cherry lips.
"Hmm~" Yukino Yukinoshita made a soft sound, "I didn't mean to lie down... um~"
With her icy blue eyes opening, Yukino Yukinoshita grabbed Dong Yunshan's restless hand. "So energetic first thing in the morning..."
"Of course I'll have energy if I sleep well." Dong Yunshan gently struggled, "I can't get out of bed if you hold me like this."
"If I don't catch you, I won't be able to get out of bed." Yukino Yukinoshita snorted softly, staring warily at Dong Yunshan. "Don't mess around."
"Okay~" Dong Yunshan replied, waving her hand.
Yukino Yukinoshita let go of her hand.
Having just regained his freedom, Dong Yunshan stood up, then suddenly lowered his head again. "Awoo~"
"You~~~!" Yukino Yukinoshita's voice took several uncontrollable turns, "Didn't we agree not to mess around?"
"This isn't nonsense, it's perfectly normal." Dong Yunshan paused, then smiled and looked up. "I'm hungry, so I need to eat..."
As if he were truly starving, Dong Yunshan lowered his head again before he could finish speaking.
"Even if you try so hard, it's still..." Yukino Yukinoshita helplessly hugged his head, "I just can't do anything with you~"
Dong Yunshan, who had stopped talking with satisfaction, looked up and was met with a reproachful gaze from Yukino Yukinoshita.
Yukino Yukinoshita angrily pushed Dong Yunshan's face away and pulled the blanket over herself to keep him from feeling hungry again. "Go get me some clothes."
Dong Yunshan got out of bed and opened the wardrobe. "Which outfit should I wear today?"
"Blue," Yukino Yukinoshita thought for a moment, "Light blue."
"Dark blue edges, with a small bow?"
Yukino Yukinoshita: "Yes."
Dong Yunshan: "Edges adorned with openwork lace?"
Yukino Yukinoshita nodded. "That's the set."
Dong Yunshan: "It feels..."
Yukino Yukinoshita grabbed a pillow as if to throw it. "Hurry up and give it to me, you've already found it!"
"Let me help you put it on."
"Are you sure you want to help me get dressed?" Yukino Yukinoshita scoffed. "I feel like you're more likely to cause trouble while I'm getting dressed."
"We've been discovered..." Dong Yunshan pondered, "Was my disguise not good enough?"
"Before you consider whether it's in place, you should first think about whether you're disguising yourself." Yukino Yukinoshita took the undergarment handed to her by Dong Yunshan, put on the bra straps, turned around, and leaned forward slightly. "Help me fasten it."
Dong Yunshan blinked. "Are you implying that I should cause trouble?"
Yukino Yukinoshita bright red. "No, that's not true~"
Chapter 834 Wedding Forms
Service Club, Activity Room.
Yukino Yukinoshita was looking at the content on the webpage while taking notes in her notebook.
There were many magazines piled on the table, and Dong Yunshan was flipping through one of them.
Yui Yuigahama chatted with her friends in the classroom for a while, so she arrived at the activity room a little late.
"Yay~" Yui Yuigahama Saki Kawasaki Yukino Yukinoshita. After looking at the content on the computer screen, she glanced at the magazine that Dong Yunshan was reading. "Wedding planning? There's another event plan in the previous magazine? I don't think it was this early last year..."
Saki Kawasaki deftly tidied the bar. "It's not a local magazine."
"Didn't the magazine need an article? Then why are you suddenly flipping through a wedding magazine?" Yui Yuigahama took a sip of her drink, her eyes lighting up. "Wow, this tastes amazing, I'll have another sip."
Dong Yunshan waved the magazine in her hand. "We're researching our wedding."
"Oh, no wonder~" Yui Yuigahama exclaimed in realization, "Right, you guys said you were getting married before..."
Yui Yuigahama brought the cup to her lips again, took a small sip, and then suddenly spat it out. "You two are getting married?!"
Saki Kawasaki handed over a towel. "Why are you so surprised when you already knew this?"
"I'm so sorry..." Yui Yuigahama put down her cup and wiped it with a towel. "I was really surprised when I first heard it. I was speechless."
Yukino Yukinoshita sighed softly, "It's not much better now."
"And then..." Yui Yuigahama, "... the impact of other things, well, I got busy afterwards, and now that it's suddenly brought up... Saki Kawasaki must be quite surprised too."
"I'm surprised they're not married yet." Saki Kawasaki leaned on the bar, looking at Yukino Yukinoshita. "Has a date been set?"
"The last three days of the month are all suitable..." Yukino Yukinoshita tucked a stray strand of hair behind her slightly reddened ear, the engagement ring on her hand reflecting a soft light. "There are still so many things that haven't been decided... We haven't taken our wedding photos yet."
"The end of the month...?" Yui Yuigahama absentmindedly, "I'm still thinking about what to do about my final exams next week, and my friend is already thinking about her wedding the week after next."
Saki Kawasaki: "Now you can understand how Teacher Hiratsuka feels?"
"A little bit..." Yui Yuigahama sighed and moved closer to Yukino Yukinoshita. "Speaking of which, are you going to wear a wedding dress? I thought it would be Shinto-style Ceremony —the kind with White Bridal Kimono."
"Hmm?" Yukino Yukinoshita, puzzled. "Why would you think that?"
"That's how it is in TV dramas," Saki Kawasaki thought the same way. "Large families seem to all wear White Bridal Kimono."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Yui Yuigahama nodded repeatedly, "And the Buddhist Ceremony too."
"Couples who choose the Buddhist Ceremony usually have deep ties to Buddhism, and the Buddhist Ceremony ceremony is more elaborate, requiring all participants to recite the Heart Sutra together." Yukino Yukinoshita casually circled a circle in her notebook. "As for the Shinto-style Ceremony..."
"We tried it out when we were writing a magazine article." Dong Yunshan recalled the scene and shook his head slightly. "The White Bridal Kimono is indeed beautiful, but wearing it is a different story. The traditional White Bridal Kimono has ten layers, and the obi alone weighs five pounds."
Yukino Yukinoshita corrected, "It's Maru Obi, and with the belt board, cotton stuffing, and other accessories, it's even heavier."
"Ugh~" Yui Yuigahama looked troubled. "This is way too much..."
"Isn't it designed for lightweight use?" Saki Kawasaki recalled the content of that previous article, "It can greatly reduce weight."
"The main point of a Shinto-style Ceremony wedding is to pursue a sense of ceremony. If the dress code and procedures are simplified because of the hassle of the ceremony, then there's no point in having a Shinto-style Ceremony in the first place." Yukino Yukinoshita glanced furtively at Dong Yunshan. "Besides, we've already experienced Shinto-style Ceremony, and this time we want to try a different format..."
"Church Ceremony and Humanist Ceremony?" Yui Yuigahama asked curiously, "Which one do you want to do?"
"There's not much difference between the two..." Yukino Yukinoshita her notebook lightly. "One is witnessed in a church by a pastor, and the other is a place you can choose freely, witnessed by family and friends—I prefer the latter."
"Because our meeting and falling in love were witnessed by our family and friends," Dong Yunshan blinked, "And the wedding will be the same, of course."
"That's wonderful..." Yui Yuigahama murmured softly, "A wedding... I'm actually discussing wedding plans with my friends—even though we're all the same age..."
Knock knock knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Then came Komachi Hikigaya's cheerful voice. "Ya-ha-lo~"
"Yay~" Yui Yuigahama in response, then eagerly announced, "Little Yukino and Yunshan are getting married!"
"Ah... ah." Komachi Hikigaya blinked. "Wasn't this something that was already decided a long time ago?"
Yui Yuigahama: "It'll be at the end of this month!"
"Yes, it was scheduled for spring break." Komachi Hikigaya took the drink from Saki Kawasaki. "The best days are the last three days of the month."
"Aren't you surprised at all? I just sprayed my drink out." Yui Yuigahama looked at Komachi Hikigaya in disbelief, then suddenly noticed a detail in her words, "How did you know the last three days of the month are better? Did you check?"
"Yes." Komachi Hikigaya nodded. "The ball was a success, and then comes the wedding, right? Just like the ending in a movie."
Saki Kawasaki vaguely guessed Komachi Hikigaya's thought process, "So... you just glanced at the progress bar?"
"That's right." Komachi Hikigaya chuckled. "Then we discovered that the last few days of the month are particularly suitable for getting married—by the way, what kind of wedding are you planning?"
Yui Yuigahama was about to answer, her gaze shifted, and she revealed a mysterious smile, "Take a guess?"
"Hmm..." Komachi Hikigaya mimicked Yukino Yukinoshita, resting her chin on her knuckles. "First, we can rule out the Buddhist Ceremony, which is usually chosen by people who have a temple at home. As for the Shinto-style Ceremony ... you've already experienced that. Of the remaining two, the Church Ceremony and the Humanist Ceremony, I feel the latter is more likely."
Yui Yuigahama: "... You weren't eavesdropping outside, were you?"
Chapter 835 Yesterday Once More
"Hehe~" Komachi Hikigaya gave a smug peace sign. "I don't need to eavesdrop, that's why I came here -- what stage are we at now?"
"We're considering where to take our wedding photos," Dong Yunshan said, holding up the magazine in her hand, "And the location for the wedding ceremony."
Komachi Hikigaya blinked. "Are you going to consider it yourselves?"
Yukino Yukinoshita nodded gently. "Mom will help after we make our decision."
"That's not what I meant~" Komachi Hikigaya waved her hand. "I meant, haven't you considered just hiring a wedding planner?"
"Huh?" Dong Yunshan's expression froze Yukino Yukinoshita's gaze.
Yukino Yukinoshita blinked. "You can do that...?"
Komachi Hikigaya looked helpless. "Didn't you consult them before when you were writing those articles?"
"I know you all prefer to do it yourselves," Yui Yuigahama her head, "But it's good to leave professional tasks to professionals."
"It really is..." Dong Yunshan finally realized.
Since her parents rarely interfered with her decisions, Dong Yunshan's first thought when faced with a problem was to do it herself.
Because Yukino's mother often interferes with Yukino Yukinoshita decisions, Yukino Yukinoshita always wants to do things herself.
As a result, the two of them researched together, without ever considering hiring a professional wedding consultant.
Saki Kawasaki Dong Yunshan, "There should be an ad in the magazine, right?"
"All the ads are automatically skipped on my end." Dong Yunshan flicked her finger. "They flow smoothly through my cerebral cortex without leaving a trace."
"What an amazing ability..." Komachi Hikigaya exclaimed in admiration. "How did you train to achieve that?"
Dong Yunshan: "Practice makes perfect."
"Even if you're going to hire a professional wedding consultant, you should prepare in advance." Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her notes. "Without your own ideas, it's hard to get useful advice."
"That's perfect." Dong Yunshan glanced at the date. "Let's make some preparations and then go to a wedding planning company for a consultation this weekend."
"A question!" Komachi Hikigaya raised her hand like an elementary school student. "Komachi is free on the weekend, can we go together? I feel like we can take lots of amazing photos."
"Yes, yes, yes," Yui Yuigahama nodded repeatedly, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, "I want to go see it too!"
"Count me in," Saki Kawasaki said. "I feel like I'll need this kind of experience in the future."
Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita exchanged a glance.
"It might be quite a hassle that day," Yukino Yukinoshita cautioned, "If you have the time..."
Dong Yunshan chimed in, "Everyone is very welcome to come along."
"Yay~" Yui Yuigahama happily hugged Yukino Yukinoshita.
"It's so hot..." Yukino Yukinoshita helplessly caught Yui Yuigahama.
"So, which consulting firm are you planning to go to?" Saki Kawasaki Dong Yunshan. "Speaking of which, do you have any friends who work in this field?"
"Yes," Dong Yunshan said, taking out her phone. "I'll contact them now."
--
The entrance to the wedding consulting firm, located in a high-end office building, is decorated with cherry blossoms, cranes, and origami elements symbolizing happiness. The lobby is a blend of Japanese and Western styles, featuring modern marble floors, crystal chandeliers, and Dry Landscape Garden elements. Soft lighting envelops the wedding dresses, kimonos, and wedding favors displayed in the showroom, creating a dreamy and sweet atmosphere.
"Wow~" Yui Yuigahama exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the dreamlike scene around her, "Just looking at it is amazing!"
"The design is quite sophisticated." Komachi Hikigaya picked up her phone, adjusted the angle, and said, "Hmm... there are a lot of elements, maybe too many..."
"After all, this is an exhibition area." Saki Kawasaki glanced around. "What we need is a moment of amazement and a rich variety of elements, to show people as many things as possible that interest them."
"Here you can experience a simplified process, and there are also corresponding sets." Dong Yunshan smiled politely as she saw the staff member approaching.
"Welcome," a staff member greeted us. "How can I help you?"
"I am Dong Yunshan," Dong Yunshan introduced herself. "I have an appointment with Ms. Mizuno."
"Ms. Mizuno...?" The staff member was clearly surprised. "Okay, please wait a moment— Mizuno!"
"Go ahead and get busy, I'll take care of things here," Mizuno Miho said to the staff, smiling and greeting them, "Long time no see."
"It's been almost a year since we last met." Dong Yunshan noticed Mizuno Miho's name tag. "Congratulations on your promotion."
A year ago, when Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita came to gather information, Mizuno Miho was still a planner; now she has been promoted to supervisor.
"It's all thanks to your help." Mizuno Miho's face showed undisguised gratitude. "If you hadn't introduced my friend, I wouldn't have been able to get promoted so quickly."
