Hard work after winning the lottery

At this moment, at the entrance of the banquet hall downstairs.

One after another, expensive luxury cars arrived.

The air was filled with the fragrance of fine clothes and the rustling of hair; wine cups clinked and toasts were exchanged.

Those who usually only appear in financial news or fashion magazines are now entering the venue one after another, all with polite smiles and holding gold-embossed invitations.

Everyone tacitly anticipated tonight's main character.

Who exactly is that legendary woman who could move the heart of the aloof and celibate King Yama of the Zhou family?

Night fell completely.

A highly anticipated grand event has begun.

The dazzling crystal chandelier suddenly dimmed, and the once noisy banquet hall fell silent instantly.

A soft spotlight, like the fingertip of God, landed precisely at the entrance of the winding spiral staircase.

The melodious sound of a violin filled the air, each note seemingly touching the very heart.

All eyes were drawn to that light.

There, a perfect couple was slowly walking towards them.

Zhou Yanjin wore a black tuxedo dress hand-sewn by a top Italian tailor.

The perfectly tailored fabric clung tightly to his broad shoulders and narrow waist, making him appear tall and slender.

The usual chilling, murderous aura was now replaced by an unyielding tenderness in his eyes.

However, the oppressive aura emanating from him, a result of his long-standing position of power, still sent a chill down the spines of the guests present.

The woman arm in arm with him is tonight's leading lady, Hua Yun.

The heavy silk wedding dress, full of courtly style, unfolded as she walked up the steps.

The pearls and diamonds on the skirt shimmered with a dreamlike luster under the light.

She was like a princess who had stepped out of an old-century oil painting—noble, elegant, and breathtaking.

With each step, the three-meter-long veil gently brushed against the steps like mist, swaying gracefully.

Zhou Yanjin tightened her arms slightly, bringing her body closer to hers.

He is giving her strength.

Hua Yun felt that support, and her previously unsteady steps instantly became firm.

She tilted her head slightly, a polite smile playing on her lips, gracefully accepting the scrutiny from all directions.

There was no cowardice, no dodging.

Her gaze was clear and bright, and she was in no way inferior to the man standing beside her.

"My God, who is that woman? She's so beautiful!"

Someone in the crowd let out a low gasp.

"Is this Mr. Zhou's wife? I heard she's an ordinary person, but she doesn't seem like one."

"How could someone who could win the heart of this young master Zhou be an ordinary person?"

Whispers rose like a tide in the darkness, but more than that, they were filled with undisguised amazement and envy.

The two walked down the last step and stepped into the center of the crowd.

There was thunderous applause.

The applause contained blessings, flattery, and recognition of the newlywed Mrs. Zhou.

Zhou Yanjin turned his head, his gaze fixed on Hua Yun's face, as if she were the only person in the huge banquet hall who caught his eye.

"Are you tired?"

He asked in a low voice, his tone filled with a doting affection that only she could understand.

Hua Yun gently shook her head, her eyes filled with sweetness.

"I'm not tired, you're here."

Just then, a burst of childish laughter broke the solemn atmosphere, but it didn't feel abrupt; instead, it added a touch of liveliness.

On the spiral staircase, three tiny figures were holding hands, walking down like three little penguins, guided by their nanny and staff.

Leading the way was Si Tao, who had the most lively personality.

He was wearing a scaled-down white tailcoat with a red bow tie around his neck, making him look exceptionally smart.

Those big, dark eyes darted around, showing no fear of strangers at all; instead, they excitedly waved to the crowd.

Wow! There are so many people!

Following behind him was the second son, Sile.

Although he was also wearing the same formal attire, he was clearly a little shy, clutching his older brother's clothes tightly with one hand, while his other hand was being held by his younger brother behind him.

The one walking at the very back was the eldest, Si'an.

The little face that looked just like Zhou Yanjin's was stern, with a slight frown, exuding a calm and domineering aura even at such a young age.

He walked with short legs but steady steps, and every now and then he would look back to see if his two troublesome brothers had fallen behind.

This scene instantly melted the hearts of all the guests present.

"My goodness, these three kids are so adorable!"

"Look at that guy walking at the very back, he's practically a miniature version of President Zhou!"

"These are the rumored triplets? The Zhou family is so lucky!"

Countless mobile phones were raised, and the sound of camera shutters filled the air.

Those usually aloof socialites were now overflowing with maternal love, wishing they could rush up and pinch those delicate little faces.

Zhou Yanjin stopped and turned around to wait for his children.

As soon as Sitao saw her parents, she ran over excitedly and hugged Huayun's leg.

"Mom! We're here too!"

Sile followed with her little steps, calling out in a soft, sweet voice, "Mommy, hug me."

Only Si'an walked up to Zhou Yanjin, looked up, and earnestly called out, "Dad."

Zhou Yanjin bent down and picked up Sile in his arms, while holding Si'an's hand with his other hand.

Hua Yun then led the mischievous Si Tao by the hand.

The family of five, under the dazzling lights, created a touching and perfect picture.

At this moment, the master of ceremonies on the stage was already in place.

This is a renowned top-tier host in City A, who carries significant weight in the industry.

He adjusted the microphone and said in his magnetic voice:

"Distinguished guests, dear friends, good evening!"

"Tonight the stars are shining brightly, tonight the atmosphere is joyous."

"We gather here to witness the grand wedding celebration of Mr. Zhou Yanjin, President of the Zhou Group, and the beautiful and virtuous Ms. Hua Yun!"

The applause from the audience erupted once again like a tidal wave.

The emcee didn't waste any time. After a brief opening speech, he handed the stage over to the main characters of the evening.

Zhou Yanjin handed the child in her arms to the nanny beside her, straightened her clothes, took Hua Yun's hand, and walked step by step to the center of the stage.

He took the microphone and scanned the entire room.

The once noisy banquet hall instantly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

This is Zhou Yanjin's intimidating power.

Thank you all for taking the time to come.

His voice was deep and powerful, carrying through the microphone to every corner.

"Today is the most important day of my life, Zhou Yanjin."

He turned around and gazed lovingly at the woman beside him.

"Because today, I finally declare to the world that Hua Yun is my rightful wife."

This statement was powerful and resounding.

Without flowery language or sentimental parallelism, it is more powerful than any vow.
