Gong Zhan wore a cold expression. “I’m not going. Since they’re so brazenly using my family’s name, let that rural man handle it!”

Uncle Yang found his words grating, yet he still started the car. “Actually, they might not necessarily have used the Gong family’s name.”

Gong Zhan was even more unhappy when he heard what was said. “Not use our family’s name? Are you saying that rural man did it all on his own? Other than being good-looking, what else does he have that can compare to me?” Transferring the household registration was not a simple matter.

Not only had they completed it shortly after entering, but it wasn’t something that could be easily handled by just anyone. If it wasn’t done using the Gong family’s name, he couldn’t believe that rural man had that much influence!

Uncle Yang shut his mouth awkwardly and drove. Inside, he felt helpless. His young master had received too much of a sense of superiority since childhood. He could no longer distinguish between self-confidence and arrogance.

Little did he know that there will always be someone better than him. No one is the center of the world, but unfortunately, the young master didn’t understand this truth.

The young master’s attitude towards Miss Gu was also something to consider. Since he couldn’t let go of the past, why act so cold? How long would the young master would cling to these obsessions…

In the photo studio of the Civil Affairs Bureau’s Marriage Registration Department, Gu Zi and Su Shen sat side by side on a long bench in front of a red curtain. A staff member brought two small red flowers and pinned them to the newlyweds’ collars, creating a festive atmosphere.

The staff member sighed, “What a perfect match! It makes me reminisce about my wedding ten years ago. But now that life nowadays is better, you both must cherish each other and live happily together.”

In the 1970s, most people’s first photo was taken with their spouse when they registered their marriage. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The newlyweds wore green military uniforms and posed tor the picture, which was then affixed to their marriage certificate. That single photograph marked the beginning of a lifetime together.

Nowadays, modern couples seeking fashion opt for Western-style clothing, not just for registration but also for grand wedding banquets.

At the banquet, they don more exquisite attire—brides in white wedding gowns holding bouquets of plastic flowers, grooms in black suits and ties. This couple was undoubtedly the most eye-catching newlyweds of this era.

Click! The photo slid out of the camera, and they took it to complete their marriage registration.

When they received their certificates, their fingertips inadvertently touched, deepening their connection.

As they stepped out, Gu Zi’s hand hung by her side until Su Shen took the initiative to hold it. They were now officially a married couple.

He admitted to feeling a rush of impatience inside; he was extremely joyful. Gu Zi was finally his wife.

Gu Zi sensed his strong possessiveness but didn’t reject it. She flashed her pearly white teeth and sweetly addressed Su Shen, “Husband, please take care of me from now on!”

Gu Zi knew that those who had served in the army in this era usually had good connections, making it convenient for them to get things done. But she hadn’t expected Su Shen not only to have connections but also to be highly esteemed by those imposing leaders.

If he hadn’t retired, his current official position wouldn’t be low. So, his success as one of the first to become wealthy wasn’t solely due to having access to exclusive information; there was more to it.

As Su Shen and Gu Zi descended the steps, an extremely festive truck intercepted them.

The truck was adorned with red cloth, and a large red flower hung from the front, making it particularly eye-catching on the clean streets.

Jin Long, Li Zhu, and others stood at the truck’s tailgate. After the truck stopped, they jumped out of the open-air trunk. Some people went over to move the motorcycle, while others cheered and surrounded the couple to get on board.

Gu Zi did not expect them to do this. She was so embarrassed that her cheeks turned red. She lowered her head and hid in Su Shen’s arms.

Su Shen obviously did not know about it either. He said coldly, ‘What are you guys doing here? Trying to make a scene?”

At this point, everyone wasn’t afraid of Su Shen’s sternness and continued to cheer. They even turned on the radio, playing Chen Gexin’s song “Rose, Rose, I Love You.”

“Rose, Rose, so charming, Rose, Rose, so lovely… Bloom on the branches in spring and summer. Rose, rose, I love you…”

The loud singing and straightforward lyrics brought the festive atmosphere to a peak.

Passersby turned to look, instantly understanding the situation. They applauded, extending their best wishes.

Someone shouted to them, “Happy wedding! Wishing the couple a lifetime of happiness together!”
