Even when her mom said she wanted to enjoy the pleasure of having her eyebrows done, she made her dad do it. And when her mom didn’t like his skills, she directly found a master-level makeup artist to teach him how to do eyebrows.
“If your parents agree, then the wedding should happen soon. If you have any concerns, we can also keep it low-key for now and wait for the future…”
Chandler’s words were interrupted by Tina, “What’s with being low-key? When we get married, we should definitely be high-profile. I want everyone to know that you’re already mine, so no one dares to have any ideas about you!”
She said something that made Chandler feel both amused and puzzled.
“By the way, let’s go somewhere,” Tina said, pulling Chandler into the car.
When they arrived at their destination, Chandler looked up at the sign above the main entrance in astonishment. He never expected Tina to bring him to the Temple of Cupid.
After all, this place didn’t seem like somewhere she would visit.
“Why did we suddenly come here?” Chandler asked curiously.
“I’ve wanted to come here with you for a long time. They say that by praying at the Temple of Cupid, a couple’s relationship will be blessed,” Tina said. Although she had thought about it before, she also realized that her relationship with Chandler was already good, so whether they prayed or not didn’t really matter.
However, now that they were about to get married, she felt a sudden urge. If their already good relationship could be even better, why not?
“Do you believe in this?” Chandler asked.
After all, he was an atheist.
“Um, I believe in the good things and don’t believe in the bad things,” Tina grinned, then pulled
Chandler into the temple.
The temple was small, but there were quite a few people inside, as if it had become a popular spot for taking photos. Influencers could be seen posing at various locations in the temple that were known to produce good results.
Tina led Chandler to the statue of Cupid inside the temple. With a devout expression, she knelt down, clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and silently made a wish. She then opened her eyes and stood up.
“They say that the more sincere your prayers to Cupid, the more likely they are to come true,” Tina explained to Chandler, as if justifying her previous actions.
“Is that so?” Chandler murmured.
“Yes, that’s why the bond between us is so strong. Nothing can break it,” Tina smiled and said, “Let’s go outside the temple and take a look…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Chandler suddenly took a step forward, lowered his body, and knelt in front of the statue of Cupid.
Tina looked at Chandler in astonishment. Wait…didn’t he not believe in gods and spirits? Why was he praying too?
Chandler also clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and silently made a wish in front of the statue of Cupid. But after making the wish, he solemnly kowtowed three times.
This action completely shocked Tina. Even the other people in the Temple of Cupid turned to look at
Chandler.
After all, such a handsome man, bowing before Cupid like this, it looked like a painting no matter how you looked at it!
Even Tina, who was used to Chandler’s behavior, was stunned by his devout prayer.
In that moment, she found it almost impossible to take her eyes off him.
When Chandler stood up and looked at Tina, she suddenly snapped back to reality.
“What’s wrong?” he asked.
“I didn’t expect you to kneel and bow. I thought you didn’t believe,” she said.
Chandler smiled faintly, his smile melting away his usual coldness. “Since it’s said that the more sincere the heart, the stronger the bond, let’s make our bond even stronger.”
Tina couldn’t help but embrace Chandler. How could she not love a man like him?
After leaving the temple of Cupid, Tina took Chandler to the Marriage Hall.
Here, various marriage-related merchandise is sold, and many couples come here for good luck.
Tina spotted a string of bracelets made of alternating white crystal and red agate. They looked quite nice.
And the meaning was quite good – “Eternal unity.”
“What do you think of this bracelet?” Tina asked.
“It’s nice,” Chandler replied.
“Then let’s buy two strings and each wear one,” she said with great interest.
It would be nice to wear couple bracelets.
He gently said, “Okay.” His eyes were full of fondness.
Tina bought two strings of bracelets, and they each wore one.
The bracelets were slightly more feminine, and Tina looked at Chandler in his neat suit, wearing such a bracelet on his wrist. It gave off a feeling of mismatch.
But Chandler didn’t think it was inappropriate at all. On the contrary, his lips curved into a shallow smile.
“I hope this bracelet can really make us stay united forever!”
“Of course it will!” Tina said.
Just then, a internet celebrity next to them was filming a dancing video. Many onlookers were taking photos. Among them, someone was taking photos and stepping backwards, about to collide with Tina.
Chandler quickly raised his hand to protect her.
Tina was already quite tall among girls, but being protected like this by Chandler, her whole body was almost engulfed in his embrace, giving off a delicate feeling.
“Be careful!” Chandler warned the person who was stepping back and taking photos.
“Y-yes, sorry,” the person quickly apologized.
This was originally just a small incident, but Tina didn’t expect that it would become a hot topic the next day.
The moment when Chandler protected her was captured and uploaded online, along with the scene of
Chandler devoutly kneeling and bowing to Cupid.
At first, people were discussing Chandler’s handsome appearance and boyfriend material.
Then someone started digging into Chandler’s identity and discovered that he was the CEO of the
Hunter Group, and the financial and political power behind him was difficult to estimate.
Furthermore, someone pointed out that the woman Chandler protected was Tina, the heiress of the
White Maple Group and Chandler’s fiancée.
Suddenly, the popularity soared and eventually became a hot search.
Of course, Tina also contributed to this hot search. Seeing the popularity, Tina decided to buy another hot search, indicating that the two of them are about to get married.
Chandler looked at the hot search Tina bought and couldn’t help but cry and laugh, “You bought a hot search?”
“Yes,” Tina nodded candidly.
“Why did you buy a hot search?” he asked.
“Well, since there is already one hot search, having a second one won’t hurt. And this way, when we have the wedding, the public won’t find it too sudden,” Tina explained.
She actually wanted to buy several more hot searches, but unfortunately, the ones for the same day were already sold out, so she temporarily didn’t buy any.
“…” Chandler looked at her helplessly, “What if your father sees this hot search and gets upset?”
“Don’t worry, my mom will handle my dad. There won’t be any problem,” Tina said. Besides, her mom had already called her this morning, reassuring her that her dad’s attitude had already softened a lot.
She estimated that in another two days, he would agree.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Kit was in the dressing room, looking down at his phone.
“Kit, your scene is coming up soon, get ready,” the assistant walked into the dressing room and reminded him.
“Got it,” Kit pursed his lips.
On the screen of his phone was Tina and Chandler’s hot search news.
Just as Kit was about to get up, another actor in the same dressing room came over and, upon seeing the news Kit was looking at, said, “Oh, you’re interested in this kind of news too. By the way, this Miss
Stephenson seems to be your fan. You were on a hot search with her before, right?”
“Kit looks so good, it’s not surprising to have a fan like a wealthy young lady. With this kind of fan, you can also get better resources. Didn’t you get good resources a while ago?”
“I’m really jealous of having such fans! If I had fans like that, I would have no shortage of resources.”
Others also chimed in, with undertones of sarcasm and jealousy.
Kit remained silent and didn’t say much, just putting away his phone.
“But hey, to give resources to this kind of wealthy young lady, you’d at least have to exchange with your body, right? If there are no benefits, how could you give resources!” another voice spoke up.
Kit suddenly looked up and glanced at the person who had just spoken.
The coldness in his eyes sent a shiver down the person’s spine. “Do you think I said something wrong?
You signed a contract with a famous director and got such a big pie. Who in this industry doesn’t know that you sold your body to…”
“Whether you believe it or not, if you continue speaking, maybe tomorrow you won’t have a foothold in this industry!” Kit said coldly, “Have you ever thought about whether you are qualified to throw dirt on the person you want to talk about? The Stephenson family and the Hunter family, which one can you afford to provoke?”
The person suddenly trembled, only now realizing their mistake.
The Stephenson family and the Hunter family were not to be messed with. Just because of their jealousy towards Kit, they nearly let slip something that could have caused them trouble.
Kit didn’t say anything else and walked away.
The others looked at the actor who had just caused trouble with a pale face, frozen like a sculpture.
After leaving the dressing room, someone chased after Kit and patted his shoulder, saying, “Don’t mind what that person said earlier.”
“I know,” Kit replied calmly.
He didn’t care about what irrelevant people said. What he cared about was… is she getting married?
