Chapter 118

In order to do this job well, all of Noah’s Ark got involved.

Antonio was in charge of the menu for the reception.

He’d already been in the business for a thousand years and then some. He had always treated his job seriously, worked hard, been diligent, had quite the skillset, and was thoroughly versed in the dishes from all nine realms. But, he felt like he couldn’t be content to stay in one place and had to keep challenging himself and create new delicious foods so that he could surprise anyone and everyone.

So, during the three days of the wedding preparation, the guests and staff members of Noah’s Ark all suffered the same fate of eating instant noodles for three straight days.

As the bartender, Gin refused to be left behind and dragged Hughes into the wine cellar.

In his words, he was going to figure out a truly unique jiaobeijiu 1 A Chinese wedding tradition where the two people getting married drink alcohol with their arms intertwined. in order to elevate Noah’s Ark’s reputation. But in Shi Feixia’s words, he was just—

“Paying respects to his uncle.”

Layton was the leader when it came to technology at Noah’s Ark.

His Domino Listening Device was still very well received. Shi Feixia had actually written an ad for it himself: “Domino Listening Device, extending your ears to infinity.”

So this time, Layton brought his best and swore to challenge himself, to surpass himself, to create the most useful high-tech product possible.

As for what it was, he indicated that he had to keep things a secret at the current stage.

But from the continual cries of pain that came from the room, that invention might not be great, but it would be one with a bloody and tearful history.

Viktor was Noah’s Ark’s newest employee.

Both his status and work ability were always in the bottom tier.

Therefore, this event was also very important to him. He decided that, no matter what, he would deliver an excellent product so that his colleagues would look at him differently and he’d bring honor to the Titans.

For the next three days, everyone in the hotel could see his busy figure running up and down the stairs.

The night before the wedding, Shi Feixia finally couldn’t hold it back anymore and grabbed him in the middle of a run to ask, “What in the world are you doing?”

“Preparations.” Viktor panted from all the running and wiped the sweat from his forehead and as he answered.

Shi Feixia asked, “Preparations for the wedding?”

Viktor nodded his giant head vigorously. “Mmhmm.”

Shi Feixia thought about it and a revelation dawned upon him. “You’re preparing to show off your muscles at the reception?” These days, good musculature was well appreciated. Shi Feixia’s mind couldn’t help but bring up Isefel’s beautiful six-pack abs.

“No.” Viktor’s firm and loud voice pulled him back to his senses.

“Then… you’re going to perform how to shatter a boulder with your chest?” Shi Feixia continued guessing.

Viktor shook his head in response. “No.”

“I won’t guess. Just tell me the answer already.” Shi Feixia watched him curiously.

Viktor scratched his head and said, “Actually, I haven’t figured it out yet.”

“…” Shi Feixia licked his lips and said, “Then you’re running up and down everyday to…”

“To think,” Viktor answered. “This can help kickstart my brain.”

Shi Feixia, “…”

“Was that wrong?” Viktor humbly asked for advice.

Shi Feixia said very quickly, “No, no, no. I just found out that feet can actually be used as a spring mechanism for the brain.”

Still the night before the wedding.

Shi Feixia used the reason that newlyweds cannot see each other before the wedding or it would be unlucky to persuade Wang Xiaoming and have him kick Baal out to the next room over to sleep.

But he also knew very well that the so-called “next-door” wall would only take a second to be demolished. So when he chatted with Wang Xiaoming, he used very subtle words. Such as—

“If the person is bad-tempered, then the future will be very hard.” Shi Feixia was very subtle with his words.

The wall vibrated once.

“Luckily, Baal’s temper… is pretty good.” He quickly changed his tune. “For example, he’d never do something like demolishing walls.”

The wall stopped moving.

“But if the other person is too poor and writes an IOU every time, that is also a problem.”

The wall vibrated.

“But Baal looks like he could make plenty of money.”

The wall stopped moving.

“Robbery, blackmail, kidnapping… He looks like a guy who could do everything.”

The wall finally collapsed.

Baal stood on the other side of the wall in his full glory.

Shi Feixia vanished out the door like a wisp of smoke.

Wang Xiaoming blinked his eyes stupidly and looked in the direction in which Shi Feixia had left. Then he looked at Baal and asked, “What did he come here for?”

Shi Feixia whooshed back in and left the sentence, “Nothing, just chatting,” before hurrying off again.

Wang Xiaoming, “…”

Baal stroked Wang Xiaoming’s head and said angrily, “I will take good care of you!”

Wang Xiaoming leaned back and looked up at Baal. “You look like the evil guy about to turture the hero right now.”

Baal, “…”

After the fervor of preparation, the wedding finally happened at Noah’s Ark on April 4th at four o’clock in the afternoon.

Gin stood next to Shi Feixia and said in an audible voice, “Did you choose April 4th to curse them into dying together?”

Shi Feixia answered without batting an eyelash, “You’re missing the four o’clock. You’re the nephew; if you join them, it’ll be a family of three, harmonious and perfect.”

Gin, “…”

“What are you talking about?” Hughes joined the conversation.

Shi Feixia answered, “Discussing the freedom you’re about to enjoy.”

Gin held Hughes and turned around to walk off.

In the middle of the lobby, a pure black, wooden inverted cross hung from the ceiling. Surrounded by the soft orange light, it seemed extra out of place.

Wang Xiaoming and Baal wore identical black suits that showed off their slim figures. On the collars on their suits, they each wore a golden heart-shaped pin with a crushed diamond in the middle. It wasn’t large but it was unique. That had been a wedding present from Xiang Wenxun.

Shi Feixia stood under the inverted cross and held a cordless microphone in his hand. He cried out loudly, “Music!”

Layton hurriedly pressed the play button on the laptop.

The song sounded—

“… The little boy, wore his backpack and went to school…” 2 A very famous children’s song in Chinese.

Baal quickly put down the foot he had lifted and asked with a frown, “What is that thing?”

Shi Feixia glared at Layton.

Layton hunched his back and said awkwardly, “Wrong song, wait.”

At the right time, Shi Feixia ad-libbed as a perfect MC would, “Look, in order to attend Baal and Wang Xiaoming’s wedding, the little boy even skipped going to school and came to the wedding chapel instead.”

…

The crowd seemed to see a fat crow flying past their heads, cawing the entire time.

“Fixed.” Layton pressed the play button in relief and a hoarse but unrestrained voice rushed out from the soundbox—

“You’re my lover, a rose-like woman…”

“With your fiery lips, take my soul in the middle of the night…”

…

Baal’s expression became uglier and uglier.

Shi Feixia looked at them innocently. “This time it’s not my mistake.”

Wang Xiaoming answered, “I picked the song.”

Baal looked at him speechlessly.

Wang Xiaoming declared excitedly, “He’s my favorite singer, so I hoped he could participate in my wedding.”

…

He better not meet the guy in the Mortal Realm!

…

Just like that.

Accompanied by Dao Lang’s hoarse screams, Baal and Wang Xiaoming slowly walked, step by step, up to the inverted cross.

Shi Feixia cleared his throat and looked seriously at Baal. “Baal, are you willing to spend the rest of your life with Wang Xiaoming? Regardless of whether he is human or a Kindred. Regardless of whether he can fly or walk. Regardless of whether he can give birth or not. Regardless of whether…”

“I do!” Baal interrupted.

Shi Feixia allowed it to happen and looked at Wang Xiaoming, “Wang Xiaoming, are you willing to tolerate Baal for the rest of your life? Regardless of whether he’s an angel or a fallen angel. Regardless of whether he is a wanted figure in the Nine Realms or not. Regardless of whether he is cast aside by the entire world or not. Regardless of whether he snores or not while he sleeps. Regardless of…”

“He does!” It was still Baal who interrupted.

Shi Feixia couldn’t resist anymore. “You’re stealing lines.”

Baal glared at him. “You’re stealing the scene.”

…

Their eyes met and explosions happened.

Isefel calmly said a classic phrase, “Today is your big day.”

Baal’s anger sputtered out.

Wang Xiaoming told Shi Feixia, “I do.”

Shi Feixia commented, “‘If I don’t go to Hell, then who will?’ is your motto right?”

Baal cracked his knuckles. “Seeing red on my big day sounds like a good idea.”

Shi Feixia saw how happiness never left Wang Xiaoming’s face and, in the end, he gave up on trying to persuade Wang Xiaoming. He said listlessly, “Please have the groom exchange rings with the groom.”

Wang Xiaoming hurriedly dug out a box from his pocket.

The box opened and a pair of shiny platinum rings glinted in everyone’s eyes.

Baal and Wang Xiaoming each took one and then slowly slid it onto the other person’s ring finger.

Shi Feixia suddenly blurted out, “Who bought the ring?”

Wang Xiaoming answered, “I bought it.”

Shi Feixia was about to sigh when he spotted Baal glaring at him coldly. He swallowed the words he was about to say and laughed dryly, “Good taste. The ring is shiny and very pretty… Did you register your property before you got married?”

Baal finally acted.

Isefel acted at the same time.

In a flash, air currents rushed against each other, space itself twisted, and lightning flashed.

Against the ceiling of the lobby, two pairs of black wings revealed themselves without restraint.

Shi Feixia looked at Wang Xiaoming’s worried face and slapped him on the shoulder. “There’s still time to back out.”

Suddenly, Wang Xiaoming turned into a bat and immediately rushed between the two pairs of black wings.

The battlefield instantly froze.

…

The lightning vanished.

Space returned to normal.

The hall fell silent again.

Isefel disinterestedly flew back to where he had been, retracted his wings, and landed behind Shi Feixia.

Baal gripped a tiny bat and landed with an angry expression.

Shi Feixia clapped his hands together and successfully drew everyone’s attention—

“Time to eat!”
