You Make Money, I'll Spend It: Stepmother's Ultimate Pleasure in the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 214

Sheng Mumu decided to set the wedding date half a year later.

There were two reasons for this.

Firstly, Qi Shaobai was about to take the college entrance examination, and if the wedding was held in the near future, it would inevitably affect his study progress.

Secondly, the college entrance examination coincided with the summer season, and Sheng Mumu didn't want to be wearing a heavy wedding gown in the scorching heat. So, she decided to postpone it again.

After careful consideration, they found that the cool and pleasant October would be the most suitable time.

As for how to plan the wedding, the next day, Qi Mo presented several well-prepared options to Sheng Mumu, as if submitting a report to a superior. He handed her a printed booklet containing the detailed plans.

Sheng Mumu paused for a few seconds and then smiled as she opened it.

While going through the booklet, she occasionally glanced at the man sitting across from her, his face filled with seriousness, waiting for her decision.

The plan included, but was not limited to, themes such as a European-style church wedding, a beach island banquet, a vintage Chinese-style wedding, and so on.

Each theme had a schedule, illustrations, and alternative plans for unexpected situations.

No detail was overlooked.

From the major process of naming an island in advance for the purchase to the small detail of waiting for the handcrafted wedding carpet to be made.

Sheng Mumu clicked her tongue and couldn't help but exclaim, "Qi Mo, President Qi, just by looking at this plan, I can almost imagine how strict and terrifying you were as a science and engineering genius during your student years."

Qi Mo's brows relaxed as he raised his chin, interpreting her words as praise. He didn't deny it and smirked slightly, bringing the topic back and asking, "Out of these themes, do you have any favorites?"

"No," Sheng Mumu honestly replied.

Before the man's pleased smile could fully appear, it froze on his handsome face for a second.

Sheng Mumu calmly said, "Recently, I've seen many young people sharing their experiences of preparing for weddings on social media, and the more I read, the more I find it troublesome."

"Even if I try to put myself in their shoes, I already feel exhausted before even starting the preparations. It's just too difficult."

"So, I was thinking..."

Sheng Mumu paused and suddenly stood up, imitating a classic movie scene by pretending to lift the table.

"...if it's too difficult, then let's not do it."

Her imitation was so lifelike that Qi Mo couldn't help but suppress a smile, and a deep amusement glimmered in his eyes.

While he found it amusing, he didn't join her in her madness.

He sat lazily on the edge of the bed, reaching out to pull her delicate wrist, his voice gentle, "I'll take care of the arrangements. You don't have to worry about anything, you won't get tired."

"You may not know," Sheng Mumu shook her arm as if explaining something new to an old-fashioned person, "but nowadays, young people find those traditional and lengthy wedding procedures quite bothersome. It would be best if we could receive the cash gifts, give out the wedding favors, and bid farewell with a smile."

"In fact, this has given rise to a particularly fast wedding format."

"The bride and groom stand in one spot while the guests take photos. After the photos, they are given vouchers for a five-star restaurant buffet, and they can go to eat whenever they want, without any time constraints."

The man tilted his head back, his pitch-black eyes narrowing slightly, as if seriously considering the feasibility of this plan.

After just a few seconds, he shook his head.

"That won't do."

It was just too casual and too simple.

It would be too unfair to her.

Sheng Mumu could tell that Qi Mo was contemplating something. She sat down next to him and spoke slowly:

"I just suddenly thought of this idea; I didn't really mean to do it."

Qi Mo subtly let out a sigh of relief upon hearing her words.

If she insisted, he wouldn't refuse.

Sheng Mumu said, "So let's compromise. We won't consider anything too complicated or rushed. We'll have a simple and casual wedding."

Qi Mo didn't understand and moved his hand to her waist, gently caressing it, as he humbly asked, "What does 'simple and casual' mean?"

Sheng Mumu tilted her head, raising an eyebrow, and began to fantasize.

"A small gathering with a few close friends, having a few drinks."

"Then, we'll bid them farewell and directly head off on our honeymoon, having fun for three to five months."

"What do you think? Can my 'simple and casual' plan pass your review, President Qi?"

As she spoke, her eyes were bright, clear, and soft. Qi Mo couldn't express his specific feelings; he only felt that the air around him became light and fragrant.

Looking into her eyes was like seeing countless stars.

Qi Mo gazed back at her.

His deep eyes revealed an unabashed love.

This wedding plan seemed tailor-made for her.

It was free and romantic.

Qi Mo tightened his grip on her and pulled her into his embrace.

With a low voice filled with a playful tone, he said, "Very well."

As he finished speaking, he leaned closer.

Imitating Sheng Mumu, he playfully rubbed his prominent nose against her petite nose, saying with indulgence, "Approved. Seal the plan with a stamp."

*

The two reached an agreement and temporarily didn't tell Qi Shaobai about the plan to have a belated wedding.

For now, nothing was more important to the third-year students than their exam preparations.

As the countdown numbers grew smaller day by day.

Sheng Mumu also became anxious, checking the time more frequently than Qi Shaobai.

But she didn't let her nervousness show on her face, trying her best to appear unconcerned about the countdown to the college entrance exams.

Every time she appeared in front of Qi Shaobai, she always had a relaxed expression.

She shared with him the latest silly news she had come across and dragged him to the gym for exercise to stay active.

Everything seemed normal on the surface.

But the perceptive young man still noticed their hidden concern and carefulness in the details.

For example, when they passed by his room, they would deliberately tread lightly.

Sheng Mumu had been looking forward to a band variety show for a long time, often mentioning that she would order a lot of takeout and wait for it to start on time in front of the TV.

Recently, she stopped mentioning it, knowing that Qi Shaobai also enjoyed watching the show, she reluctantly said:

"Little Qi, let's watch it from the beginning to the finals after you finish your exams. That will be more enjoyable."

Qi Shaobai smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay."

He didn't expose her.

He clearly remembered that she had said before that competitive variety shows were more interesting to watch in real-time.

Qi Shaobai could easily recall one or two instances of such small things.

As a young man who wasn't good at expressing his emotions in words, he turned the warmth he received into motivation.

He studied hard.

Not only the homeroom teacher and classmates of Class 12, even students from other grades noticed that the charismatic Qi Shaobai was different from before.

The handsome young man still had a cool and piercing gaze.

However, it no longer exudes the untamed and untamed wildness as before.

Instead, it relies on a powerful inner strength and bursts forth with branches and tendrils.

Continuously nourished, it reaches towards the sky.

Gathering strength, sprouting.

Soon, it will soar into the clouds.
