Gu Chen chuckled.

"Ceremony complete!"

As Seeing Zhongli's voice fell, friends and relatives offered their blessings one after another.

Hu Tao, who was usually unconventional, was exceptionally well-behaved today; she was sent back to the room to wait.

Gu Chen, the groom, was toasted by turns.

The Tianshu Star, Ningguang, was also among them.

Halfway through the wedding banquet, Gu Chen said to Seeing Zhongli: "The Hall Master is probably hungry by now. You help me hold the fort for a while."

Seeing Zhongli was stunned, then helpless: "Alright."

Gu Chen stood up, apologized to everyone, and immediately left with some food Hu Tao liked.

Inside the bedroom.

Hu Tao, covered by the red bridal veil, sat there quietly.

The door opened, Gu Chen walked in slowly, placed the food aside, and came to her side.

"You, you, you, are you in such a hurry?"

Hu Tao shrank back a little.

"Hmm?"

Gu Chen raised an eyebrow, then said: "Hall Master, just waiting dryly like this until the evening, the feeling of being hungry is hard to endure. I just brought you something to eat."

"Oh, oh!"

Hu Tao realized.

"Listening to you, it seems there's still some disappointment. How come, is the Hall Master also impatient?" Gu Chen teased.

"No way..." Hu Tao responded in a low voice.

Gu Chen stepped forward and lifted her red bridal veil. Looking at Hu Tao, whose features were like a painting and whose eyes held a faint shyness, Gu Chen said: "Alright, don't go hungry."

"Mm-hmm!"

Hu Tao nodded.

Just listening to the liveliness outside, she was actually a bit hungry.

If she waited here for the whole afternoon, she would probably be starving by the evening.

"Eat slowly. Seeing Zhongli might not be able to hold the fort alone. I'll go entertain the guests too and come back later," Gu Chen said.

"Go, go." Hu Tao waved her hand.

Slowly, the lively sounds outside gradually faded.

Through the window, the sky was also gradually darkening.

Hu Tao didn't feel the time was hard to endure, but unknowingly, it was already evening.

Gu Chen pushed the door and came in.

"Hungry?" Gu Chen asked.

"A little bit," Hu Tao replied.

"I knew it." Gu Chen laughed and brought some more of what she liked to eat.

"Hee hee, the Second Consultant is still the best!" Hu Tao's smile was brilliant.

"Hmm? Still calling me Second Consultant?" Gu Chen crossed his arms and teased: "The ceremony is complete, shouldn't you change how you address me?"

"You want to hear it?" Hu Tao blinked: "Husband, husband, husband!!!"

Gu Chen nodded: "Sounds good."

Hu Tao giggled and put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"Finished eating?" Gu Chen asked.

"Uh-huh~" Hu Tao nodded.

The next moment, she was picked up by Gu Chen, who said: "That means it's the last part of today."

Hearing this, Hu Tao covered her face with both hands, her cheeks turning bright red.

The camera shifted to the courtyard, the candlelight in the bedroom was suddenly blown out, and then the camera pulled up to the sea of clouds at night.

【Kaeya】: Good, good, good, treating brothers as outsiders, right? (Funny)

【Venti】: What do you mean, what do you mean! I was watching with great interest, and it suddenly cut off! (Funny)

【Paimon】: What follows is paid content! (Paimon: Hmph hmph)

【Furina】: This cannot be broadcast!

【Lisa】: Although it wasn't broadcast, you can imagine it~

【Kamisato Ayaka】: (Barbara: Shyly covering face)

【Nilou】: Ahhhhh, just thinking about Miss Hu Tao and Mr. Gu Chen cuddling, so excited, so excited!! (pRwQq)

【Collei】: Hehehehehe... (Dazed laughter)

【Kirara】: Hehehehehehe... (Dazed)

【Keqing】: The Sect Leader's CP fans have gone crazy. (Paimon: Surprised)

【Hu Tao】: Scared me to death, good thing it wasn't broadcast. (Sigh of relief)

In the days after Hu Tao just married Gu Chen, Hu Tao stuck to Gu Chen all day long, and the external affairs of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor were all handed over to Seeing Zhongli.

Seeing Zhongli was now in pain and happy at the same time.

Although it was a bit tiring, fortunately, Hu Tao and Gu Chen were together.

Spring went and autumn came.

In the happy times, the passage of time made people feel it was faster.

In the blink of an eye, it was five years.

Hu Tao leaned in Gu Chen's arms, touching her lower abdomen, frowning: "How come there's no movement?"

Gu Chen shook his head and said: "This is also part of the curse of the high heavens."

"So, I can't conceive your child?" Hu Tao was somewhat disappointed.

Gu Chen didn't speak, and Hu Tao sighed.

Under Gu Chen's comfort, she also gave up struggling with this matter.

Accompanying him for the remaining time was the top priority.

Time flew by.

This year, Hu Tao was already fifty.

Although she was well-maintained, compared to previous years, there were many differences.

"I'm getting old soon, you won't dislike me, right?" Hu Tao asked softly.

"Never." Gu Chen shook his head.

"That's good!"

This year.

Hu Tao was seventy years old.

Her brown hair already had a few strands of silver, and some wrinkles had appeared on her face.

She was growing old.

Gu Chen knew this fact, but was powerless to stop it.

Simply, Gu Chen extended her life.

He originally thought Hu Tao wouldn't agree, but Hu Tao accepted it very easily.

"As long as you don't dislike my old appearance, it's good to accompany you for a few more decades," Hu Tao said with a smile.

"Good."

This year, Hu Tao was eighty years old.

The Jade Chamber in the sky welcomed its new owner.

That Tianshu Star, Ningguang, had passed away, and Gu Chen and Hu Tao had gone to pay their respects as friends.

It was said that Keqing, who had political disagreements with Ningguang, was also extremely saddened by Ningguang's passing.

This year, Hu Tao was ninety.
