"I never thought that you like Dark Blue too," Zhou Dae Un beamed at Lily.
"She actually chose dark blue because she thought you would like the color," Zhou Wu Ye added. "Who would have thought that you are going to wear dark blue too?" He laughed.
"Actually, I chose it because I thought you will like it too," Lily smiled in response. "I guess, we had the same impression towards each other?"
"Oh?" surprise flashed in both Zhou Dae Un and Zhou Wu Ye's eyes.
Lily originally chose the dress because blue signifies loyalty and confidence. She wanted to create the impression of trust and confidence around Zhou Jingren's parents.
"So, the wedding is still happening, right?" Zhou Wu Ye asked. "Are you planning to do it in Italy?"
"We haven't talked about it yet. But it will definitely happen." Zhou Jingren answered as he started slicing Lily's steak. "It might still be in Italy."
"Good! I would love to help you with planning. I also know a very good spot for your wedding photos." His mother added.
"Is this in Korea? I was planning to have a few photos taken in Japan as well… now that I took a break from the Facci Group I can easily take care of everything."
"You took a break?"
"It will be announced in the press conference tomorrow," Lily answered Zhou Wu Ye. "I thought it is essential for me to spend more time with my husband and take a break from the hustle of the business world. Of course, I have an expert VP in my side and I will still oversee everything."
"That is a very good choice." Zhou Dae Un nodded. "Take your time to recuperate. Your company can wait."
The four of them started talking as they finished their meal. It was a peaceful night as spring started to make its presence known.
"Actually, I was planning to have a Traditional Chinese wedding." Lily leaned her head on Zhou Jingren's shoulders. She closed her eyes as she bath at his familiar scent.
"Chinese? I thought you want…"
"Not anymore. I want to have a traditional one. I don't want an extravagant wedding. I want a simple one with our close friends. No media. Just us."
"Then that will happen." Zhou Jingren smiled and stroked her hand. "Did you enjoy the dinner?"
"Hmmm." She nodded. Honestly, this was the first time that Lily talked to some people outside of her friend group without scheming or calculating ahead of time. She just talked and had a great time. To Lily, this was refreshing. "Thank you." She uttered.

.......................................
Lily's return immediately became a hot topic not just in Hong Kong but also in Europe. Some people were in disbelief. How could they fake her death? How could they fool the masses? Was this a ploy to increase their profits?
Since the press conference did not reveal any helpful information about the supposed death, various theories flooded the Internet. Lily's name became trending as many people started to search her name on the net out of curiosity. Of course, these were the least of Lily's concerns.
All she wanted was to spend her time with her husband, enjoy the company of her friends and this time, she wanted to plan her own wedding. The incident made Lily realized how she had been too focused on business. She originally thought that any wedding won't matter. After all, she was already married. This was nothing but a ceremony.
However, the incident made her realized how wrong she was. Life is too short to just focus on superficial things. Her wealth and prestige will disappear, but no one could take away her happy experiences. No one could take away her memories.
When Lily and Zhou Jingren informed everyone about their change of plans, they were all ecstatic and very supportive. Lily with the help of Zhou Dae Un immediately started planning everything. From the red wedding dresses to the tea ceremony and the coronet that Lily will wear on her head.
The planning was smooth, and the date of the wedding was immediately chosen by a fortune teller. On the tea ceremony, both Zhou Jingren and Lily presented teas to both of their paternal and maternal family.
Of course, Lily also invited her biological father this time while Zhou Jingren only had her mother and father despite the fact that her grandfather was still alive.
When the news of the tea ceremony was leaked to the media, the Lee Family almost exploded in anger. After all, this is a blatant insult. A blatant disregard of their familial ties. Isaac Lee sat there, fuming as he listened to the news of his people who were watching Lily and Zhou Jingren's every move.
"First, Lily was alive and now… they were actually planning to have a Traditional Chinese wedding? "
"Father, calm yourself," Thomas said, his face stern. "Do not let this affect your health." He said.
"Leave me," Isaac said. In response, Thomas nodded and silently left his study. "Did you see that?" Isaac hissed at the man sitting opposite to him. "My grandson and daughter… are adamant about cutting our ties!"
"They had a very good reason to do that." The man answered, earning a glare from the old man.
"This marriage cannot happen!" Isaac said. "Schedule a press conference, I would like to announce that I am dying."
A sigh escaped the man's lips. "Don't be too hasty. Announcing that you are dying when you're not even sick will have a tremendous effect on the company. Why don't you announce that she is your daughter? Apologize in front of the media and gain everyone's sympathy."
Isaac clenched his jaws in response. "You have a point."
"I know. After you have gain everyone's respect, it is time for you to use that sympathy against them. You can use it to pressure them to interact with you."
Isaac turned silent at his trusted assistant's words. He narrowed his eyes as he nodded. "Good idea. Schedule the press conference."
Unbeknownst to him, Lily and Zhou Jingren were already having the marriage ceremony at that very same moment.
