With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

Bei Chenyan was taken aback. "This..."

"What? A wedding!" Nangong Wu looked at her father, her eyes wide.

They had only been gone for three days when these two old men set the date for her and Bei Chenyan's wedding?

"Father, Runan City is not yet completed."

"Wuwu, I know you want to wait until Runan City is built before discussing the wedding, but I think that it will take at least two years for the city to be completed, which is too long. You are already parents, and your child is already so big. What are you waiting for two more years for?"

"As your father, I discussed with His Majesty the possibility of you getting married sooner, so that the children can have a complete family as soon as possible," Huo Jing said.

Upon hearing this, Bei Chenyan was overjoyed and stood up to bow to Emperor Nanqi and Huo Jing.

"Your subject will leave the decision entirely to Your Majesty and Father-in-law."

"Why didn't you tell us beforehand? You just suddenly set the wedding date?" Nangong Wu felt it was all too sudden.

"What's all this sudden? You've known each other for five years now, haven't you? You're practically family. You're engaged, and your kids are all grown up. What are you waiting for?" Huo Jing said helplessly.

"I never said I wouldn't get married, I just wanted to wait until Runan City was built," Nangong Wu said softly.

"You can have your wedding, it won't delay the construction of the city. When it's time for the wedding, let everyone take a day off. Once Runan City is built, we'll hold another ceremony for you. That's settled then." Huo Jing didn't allow her to refuse.

"What did you say? We have to hold another one later?" Nangong Wu was speechless. Can a wedding be something you can just do for fun?

"Hmm." Emperor Nanqi also spoke up: "The first wedding will be held in our Nanqi Kingdom! I have already announced the wedding to the world, but I must first ask the princess to marry into the Eastern Palace as the Crown Princess."

As for the next re-certification, we'll discuss it again once Runan City is built.

The next time we hold a make-up ceremony, it will be to coincide with Nangong Wu's ascension to the throne.

"Fine! Whatever makes you happy." Nangong Wu didn't care anymore.

"Don't worry, Wuwu, I will definitely make our wedding a grand and glorious one." Bei Chenyan came over and took her hand, his eyes full of joy.

Nangong Wu glanced at him. "Next month is the 18th, there are only thirty-odd days to prepare."

"There's still time." Emperor Nanqi's eyes crinkled with joy. "The Ministry of Rites has been preparing for the Crown Prince's marriage for several years now."

Bei Chenyan also said, "And the wedding dress, I've already had it embroidered, and it's just waiting for the wedding day."

"Your Highness, you must be tired from your journey. Go back and rest. You don't need to worry about the wedding." The Emperor of Southern Qi told them to go and rest, hoping they could spend more time together to strengthen their bond.

"Then we'll head back now! Your subject takes his leave." Bei Chenyan bowed and took his leave.

Nangong Wu also bowed.

The two left Yikun Palace together.

On his way back to the East Palace, Bei Chenyan couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"Wuwu, I can finally marry you!"

Nangong Wu glanced at it. "It's just a wedding, is there any reason to be this happy?"

"Of course! It's been five years. I've been chasing my wife for five whole years, and I've finally come to the end. Do you think it was easy for me?" Bei Chenyan thought about his bumpy five-year journey to win over his wife, and it was truly a bittersweet experience!

"You can marry another woman." Nangong Wu didn't want to get married. If this guy weren't the father of three children, she wouldn't have gotten married.

"Ever since I met you, I've made up my mind never to marry another woman." Bei Chenyan held her hand tightly, feeling incredibly at ease.

"We have three children. Even if you don't want to marry me, I will stay by your side and the children for the rest of my life. It doesn't matter if we don't have a formal title or status. Fortunately, I have finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel."

Nangong Wu was somewhat moved by what she heard, "Let's not talk about this anymore."

"But I'm really happy. Do you know how many men in the world have their eyes on you? I've defeated all the men in the world." Bei Chenyan was genuinely happy.

The whole world is saying: Whoever gets Nangong Wu gets the world!

He didn't want the world; he just wanted to be with his wife and children, living a peaceful and stable life.

He also thanked God for the arrangement that allowed him and her to have three children, and for bringing them together again by chance.

Nangong Wu didn't want to talk anymore, and listened to his rambling all the way until they returned to Yongming Palace.

"Wuwu, how about we use this Yongming Palace as our wedding room?" Bei Chenyan asked her. "Do you have any suggestions? Or how about changing it to be like the rooms in your space?"

"No need, just let someone oversee the decorations. The Crown Prince's bridal chamber won't be too bad." Nangong Wu wasn't very interested.

She won't be staying here for long.

Once Runan City is built, I'll renovate my room properly, just like the villa I had in that post-apocalyptic world.

"That's true, we can just have someone else do these things." Bei Chenyan felt a pang of sympathy seeing the weariness on her face. "You've been running around for the past ten days or so, it must have been really tough for you. Go back to your space and rest."

"Bei Chenyan, you know what the situation is like in Runan City right now. I'm going back tomorrow. As for the wedding, you can handle it as you see fit. I'll like it no matter how it's arranged," Nangong Wu said to him.

"Okay." Bei Chenyan pulled her into his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness. "Don't worry, I'll decorate our love nest nicely and give you an unforgettable wedding night."

"I believe you." Nangong Wu tiptoed and gave him a reassuring kiss on the lips.

The unexpected kiss made Bei Chenyan's eyes suddenly deepen, and the soft touch of his lips made his heart pound wildly.

He pulled her close around her waist, lowered his head, and kissed her red lips.

Nangong Wu: "..." She only felt guilty and wanted to reward him with a kiss.

Just then, an untimely voice rang out, "Your Highness, Young Master Qi requests an audience."

Nangong Wu pushed him away, "Someone's here to see you, I'm going into my space first."

After she finished speaking, she slipped into the space.

Bei Chenyan looked at his empty arms and his face darkened.

Qi Ziyang walked in, his voice lazy, "Your Highness, I heard that the date for your wedding with Princess Runing has been set. It's quite sudden! I thought you would have to wait another two years."

"Are you free today?" Bei Chenyan glared at him irritably.

"How could that be! The Ministry of War is incredibly busy. I'm sick and tired of listening to a bunch of old men nagging all day long." Qi Ziyang found a seat and continued:

"I heard that you have returned and brought back many things, so I came to the palace to take a look."

"The wedding will be on the 18th of next month." Bei Chenyan sat down in the main seat.

Qi Ziyang sat up straight immediately. "The 18th of next month? Today is already the 9th. Is it that rushed?"

"I've waited five years for this wedding, and you're saying it's in a hurry?" Bei Chenyan said irritably. "You'd better keep busy during this time. The folded paper will be delivered to your residence."
