Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 21: Wedding Photo Shoot

At the crack of dawn, a well-rested Ningning got up, washed up, had breakfast, and began to dress up.

A long brown trench coat, with a white sweater adorned with red lace underneath, paired with a skirt. It highlighted Ningning’s fair skin and slender figure, her delicate and radiant face akin to a peach blossom in May, with almond-shaped eyes as clear as a spring, full of emotion and depth.

"My Ningning is truly getting more beautiful." Yao Chunhua couldn’t help but sing praises upon seeing her daughter’s attire, recalling how she too was a beauty in her youth, and her husband was a handsome lad in the town. Their children turned out strikingly well.

"Yes, Auntie is really beautiful." Yang Manman, who had also finished breakfast and was on her way to teach at the village elementary school, couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw Ningning.

Nowadays, Yang Manman held no prejudice against Ningning, especially since she felt the effects of her treatment were quite evident over the past few days.

In the cold winter, usually her hands and feet were icy, and she’d go to bed early. If her husband wasn’t around, it was not until the latter part of the night that she’d barely manage to warm up.

Especially her abdomen, which was cold throughout the year and prone to stomach aches.

During those monthly days, it was particularly painful.

But recently, she felt her body was warming up.

Shortly after lying down at night, her body heated up.

She hoped that by the end of her treatment, she’d finally conceive.

After Yang Manman headed out, hopeful, the familiar jeep pulled up in front of the Gu Family’s house.

The car door opened, and a man extended his long, straight legs, then emerged entirely.

With broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his features were sharp and his brow somewhat defiant.

He seemed to hear sounds from inside and raised his head to look over.

The young girl approached with a smile, and as she moved, the breeze gently lifted her skirt, revealing an alabaster ankle. Her steps light, like an elegant and charming little cat, walking slowly—each step touching his heart.

As she drew near, the breeze carried a faint, pleasant fragrance from her.

She slightly tilted her head to look at him, exposing her tender, white skin on her neck, her long eyelashes fluttering, and eyes like water filled with charm, alluring in their gaze.

The curve at the end of her eye was slightly pronounced, captivating, as if a mere glance could seize one’s attention, making it hard to look away.

The soft skin of the girl bathed in the morning light seemed to shine with a delicate glow, without any blemishes, and even the soft, fine hairs were visible.

Sheng Zexi felt his fingertips tingle slightly.

She lightly bit her red lips with her pearly teeth, a gentle smile on her lips as she spoke in a soft, sweet voice.

"You’re here."

Seeing the man momentarily dazed, not immediately responding, she reached out her small hand, fingers white and tender as scallions, slid over his sleeve, and gently tugged, making Sheng Zexi’s body tense up, his heart pounded.

In that instant, her touch seemed to ignite him.

His Adam’s apple moved slightly, mouth dry.

"Brother Sheng, why aren’t you saying anything~" Her voice soft, with a touch of playful complaint.

Sheng Zexi quickly coughed lightly, regained his composure, and said, "You look really beautiful today." It was clear she had dressed up meticulously, and for him.

Sheng Zexi felt a surge of joy; if he had a tail, it would undoubtedly wag.

Although Ningning knew she was beautiful, she was delighted being complimented by Sheng Zexi.

She never knew humility, raising her chin slightly like a proud little cat, "I have always been pretty, dressing up makes me look even better."

Then lowering her gaze, her long lashes casting a shadow on her lids, she murmured softly, "Today is the day we take our marriage certificate photo, a once-in-a-lifetime event, I must dress beautifully."

Sheng Zexi felt pleased; he loved how Ningning dressed up for their affairs.

Seeing his future wife looking so lovely, he recalled her words yesterday.

Sheng Zexi thought, perhaps he hadn’t bought enough snowflake cream yesterday, he’d need to stock up more later.

Last night, for the first time in over 20 years, Sheng Zexi applied snowflake cream on his own face, realizing he needed to start caring for himself.

After greeting the Gu Family member, Ningning got into the car, and Sheng Zexi drove towards Qingshan County.

Passing through the fields, the people in the fields could only see the dust stirred up by the car.

"That’s the Gu Family’s prospective son-in-law, Officer Sheng’s car, isn’t it?"

"It’s Officer Sheng’s car, I saw it yesterday."

"Hey, I think I saw the girl from the Gu Family in the passenger seat, what are they up to?"

"What are they up to, naturally doing things one does before a wedding."

Wen Zhqing watched the jeep gradually disappear from view, listening to the chatter around him, his gaze darkened, lips pressed as he continued sorting sweet potatoes.

Two people away, Li Juan’s peripheral gaze fell on Wen Zhqing, speculating on his feelings.

The jeep arrived in Qingshan County, stopping right in front of the photo studio.

The old photographer saw the couple and his eyes lit up, "You two are here to take wedding photos, right? You make such a perfect pair."

The man handsome, the woman beautiful, truly a match made in heaven.

"Move closer, yes, the man closer to the woman, that’s right, don’t move."

With several clattering sounds, Ningning and Sheng Zexi’s wedding moment was captured.

The old photographer looked at the photos, full of satisfaction.

This was the best-looking couple he had ever photographed, even offering to display one of their photos in the studio for half the fee.

They refused.

Firstly, they didn’t lack money.

Secondly, Sheng Zexi being an officer, and a future notable person, it’s better his photos weren’t publicly displayed.

"Alright, you’ll be able to collect them in two days."

Though somewhat regretful, after seeing Sheng Zexi in uniform, the photographer realized his request wasn’t quite reasonable.

After taking their wedding photos, they browsed the supply store.

Though Sheng Zexi wanted to spend more time with Ningning, since they hadn’t held the wedding banquet yet, after the supply store visit, he drove her back to the Gu family.

Before heading to the city, the girl’s hair was tied in a bun, now she returned with a beautifully adorned hairpin on top. Standing at the door, she waved farewell to her officer fiancé.

Two days later, Sheng Zexi visited the Gu family again.

Yao Chunhua, knowing it was the day to get the marriage certificate, had given her daughter the household registration book early.

"Ningning, my marriage report application was approved." As soon as she got into the car, Sheng Zexi shared the good news with Ningning.

Perhaps because of his mood, even Sheng Zexi’s usually sharp and defiant look softened.

Ningning responded with a soft "hmm," her lips wore a gentle smile, clearly pleased.

They first went to the photo studio to collect the photos.

There were several pictures, wedding photos of the couple, individual photos, and others in various poses.

Ningning received a couple’s photo and an individual shot of Sheng Zexi.
