Shi Wen opened the ledger and looked at the familiar names, feeling deeply moved. Most of the herders who came to give him money were friends who had received his help.

Some things were just small, but I didn't expect the other party to remember them and specially choose a day to return the favor.

Looking at his expression, Fu Meng smiled and said, "You've completely integrated into this area. You're involved in weddings and funerals now, so there will probably be a lot of social interactions in the future."

Shi Wen carefully put away the ledger and said earnestly, "It's fine, we're very happy with it."

With so many people coming to give gifts, Shi Wen and Yan Kexing couldn't very well let them go back, so they invited them to stay and attend the wedding.

Fortunately, today's wedding was a lawn ceremony without a banquet; otherwise, Shi Wen really wouldn't know what to do.

Nevertheless, the number of wedding attendees has skyrocketed from the initial four hundred or so they envisioned to over a thousand, and they don't even have enough seats.

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing simply removed all the chairs and asked everyone to stand while watching the ceremony.

Their wedding ceremony was short, and no one had any objections.

Today's emcee is Zhu Ji. Originally, an emcee was hired from outside, but Zhu Ji volunteered to be their emcee.

Zhu Ji has stronger business skills and understands them better, making it easier for him to handle some emergencies—such as those involving Abilities.

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing then entrusted him with the important task of being the master of ceremonies.

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing were both grooms, and there was no distinction between them.

After finishing his opening remarks, Zhu Ji shouted directly to the crowd, "Please welcome the two grooms to enter!"

Let's all look back together.

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing side by side toward the stage.

They were dressed in tailored, fitted suits, specially made for the occasion. One in black and one in white, they walked towards the stage in the sunlight, tall and long-legged, like a perfect couple.

The guests who came to watch the ceremony could hardly take their eyes off them and could only applaud them enthusiastically.

The applause was extremely enthusiastic, like waves crashing on the shore.

Once the two of them were standing on the stage.

Zhu Ji said, "Next, please welcome the best man and maid of honor to witness the happiness of our newlyweds."

Most people were quite curious about the groomsmen and bridesmaids, and turned to look when they Shi Wen.

Unexpectedly, the people walking down the red carpet weren't humans, but rather a bunch of small animals like cows, horses, cats, dogs, foxes, and tigers.

Wearing appropriately sized bow ties, they pushed and shoved their way onto the stage, none of them giving way to the others. An Wa even let out a tiny "woof".

People looked at them and suddenly burst into laughter, followed by applause and screams.

The little ones stood tall and proud on the stage, showing no fear whatsoever, their round eyes looking at Shi Wen and Yan Kexing.

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing also laughed.

Zhu Ji: "Now, with the best man, bridesmaids, and all our friends as witnesses, our wedding is officially beginning. Now, let's invite the groom, dressed in white, to deliver his declaration of love."

Shi Wen stepped forward with a smile, bowed, and after delivering his opening remarks, said, "From childhood to adulthood, I've had many dreams about giving an award speech, but the one I've never fantasized about is giving a speech at a wedding."

Everyone applauded.

Shi Wen continued, "As a gay man, unless you saved the galaxy in your past life, it's very difficult to have a grand wedding. Now, Yan Kexing has made it possible for me; he gave me the opportunity to have a wedding, and everyone else has given me a grand one—"

The audience burst into laughter, followed by applause and screams.

Shi Wen laughed and said, "In my past life, I must have saved more than just the Milky Way; I must have contributed to the Big Bang to deserve this good fortune."

Yan Kexing gently took his hand beside him.

Shi Wen looked at Yan Kexing, "I may not have said it, but I fell in love with Yan Kexing at first sight. When I saw him, I was almost speechless. But I think it's not easy to speak fluently in front of Professor Yan. In that respect, I shouldn't lose to my other suitors."

Yan Kexing looked at Zhu Ji.

Zhu Ji cleverly handed over his microphone.

Yan Kexing said, "I have no other suitors, and besides, I fell in love with you at first sight, so don't be nervous."

Whistles, screams, and applause erupted again from below, and people wore broad smiles, probably not expecting to hear such gossip at a wedding.

Their speeches continued, but out of consideration for the standing guests, they were brief, lasting only five or six minutes.

Zhu Ji, beaming, stepped forward and said, "Now the two grooms may exchange rings."

The two took out rings from their pockets.

To avoid bulging their pockets, neither of them put their rings in a ring box; they simply kept them in their pockets.

These are two silver-white platinum rings, with a delicate design, and they encase their hair.

This platinum ring, specially crafted by an international master, boasts a unique, flowing, and simple beauty.

The moment they exchanged rings was captured by a photographer and projected onto a large screen. Many people noticed a point on their rings that looked like an animal's ear, and they began whispering among themselves.

These are actually two pairs of animal ears. The ring that Shi Wen gave to Yan Kexing is Qilin ear, Shi Wen the ring that Yan Kexing gave to Shi Wen is a dragon ear.

The two pairs of small ears protrude only slightly, yet they are exquisite enough that anyone in the know can immediately recognize what kind of ears they are.

Zhu Ji smiled as soon as he saw it on stage.

The audience members, including Dang Changming, were all smiles, and Duan Kuo even whistled.

Zhu Ji announced loudly, "Now, the groom may kiss the groom!"

The young people were all clapping and whistling.

Yan Kexing, supporting Shi Wen's shoulders, kissed him with a smile. Shi Wen provocatively stuck out his tongue and lightly licked his lips, returning a deep kiss in return.

The atmosphere below became even more enthusiastic.

Blue sky and white clouds, the little ones surrounding them, good-natured cheers from the audience, and Yan Kexing's kiss.
