A Honeymoon
The grand wedding that belonged to Gu Cheng and Ning Yi came to a magnificent close.
In the end, it exploded across the entire internet domestically—dreamlike, luxurious scenes flooded every feed—and it also gained huge popularity overseas. Netizens everywhere envied the couple—
[One is the head of a financial empire, the other is the founder of a top platform—how can a couple be this perfectly matched?]
[President Gu is already incredibly handsome, and his wife is just as beautiful. Add in their intelligence… it’s hard to imagine what their future child will be like]
[I’m so excited!!]
For Ning Yi, everything was actually very simple—it just meant she had truly married Gu Cheng.
Although she had been calling him “husband” since the very beginning, from today onward—
every time she said it would carry more weight.
So—
“—Husband!” Ning Yi called out emotionally, “What are we eating for lunch!”
Gu Cheng walked over, first placing a cup of haupia in her hand, then lowering his head to kiss her cheek. “We’ll see the guests off, then go eat the local specialty—Kalua roast pig.”
Honeymoon—the “honey” part was important. Of course, planning Ning Yi’s meals was just as important.
Ning Yi took a bite of the dessert. It was a jelly-like treat made from arrowroot powder, topped with fresh coconut milk and sprinkled with crushed nuts—sweet and fragrant.
Ah, the taste of happiness—
Ning Yi narrowed her eyes, holding her spoon as she stood up. “Hehe, let’s go~”
Song Lan and Old Master Gu were already waiting at the helipad. The rest of the time, the entire island would be left to the newlyweds for their honeymoon.
Their eyes were full of anticipation. “You two just enjoy yourselves—don’t think about work for a while!”
Gu Cheng: “Don’t worry.”
Ning Yi nodded too. “Mm-hmm.”
Gu Le clung to a tree, crying: “Wuwuwu can’t I stay and play too?! Am I not part of this family?!—”
In the end, Old Master Gu knocked him on the head with his cane and dragged him away.
The older generation naturally hoped for great-grandchildren. Even if they didn’t rush them, it didn’t stop them from imagining the future of the Gu family line—what would their child even be like? It was unimaginable!
The Gu family boarded the plane, full of expectation, and left the lively island.
The remaining guests also began departing one by one. Gu Cheng went to see off the prominent figures from various sectors.
Meanwhile, Ning Yi leisurely enjoyed the scenery—after all, she hadn’t invited many guests herself, so there wasn’t much to do.
From the helipad, she could overlook the entire island—surrounded by sea, lush and green, full of fun things. Her gaze swept across the land like she truly was its ruler—
Then, unfortunately, a “princess” appeared.
Ding Ziyue and Jiang Linyi’s storyline had progressed into a new phase of “she runs, he chases.” She deliberately walked away alone, forcing Jiang Linyi to chase after her, drawing plenty of attention.
Seeing Ning Yi, Ding Ziyue rushed over, suppressing the jealousy and breakdown in her eyes.
—All of this, the dress! The wedding! This palace! Damn, it was all too perfect!
How could Young Master Gu be this thoughtful?!
So whose pampering story was this world even about? Ding Ziyue felt her long-held worldview beginning to collapse—
If she didn’t come, she’d feel bad. But coming made her feel even worse. In the end, she had a big argument with Jiang Linyi just to regain a bit of narrative superiority.
Now, she looked at Ning Yi for a moment, then suddenly smirked. “Sister, have you noticed anything different about me?”
Ning Yi: “Huh?”
She looked at Ding Ziyue carefully, then uncertainly said, “…less shiny?”
Ding Ziyue’s eyes widened: “—You!”
What “shiny” nonsense—what did the Goddess of Light have to do with her, Ding Ziyue?!
Ding Ziyue proudly revealed her trump card: “You don’t know, do you? I actually… am already carrying Linyi gege’s child! Their Jiang family is the top wealthy family in the province, and they’ve always wanted a first grandson!”
So once she ran away while pregnant, they would desperately search for her. Jiang Linyi would regret everything and chase after her—she would still be the adored princess surrounded by attention!
Ding Ziyue glanced at Jiang Linyi running toward her, smiled brightly at Ning Yi, and declared: “I will eventually win against you!”
With that, she turned and walked toward the sea.
Behind her, Jiang Linyi chased: “Yue—Yue—”
Ning Yi clapped. “Nice!”
Having picked up her first bit of entertainment today, Ning Yi happily said, “Keep that energy! See you in the game!”
Now that Ding Ziyue had a child, wouldn’t her “holy light” shine even brighter? Ning Yi decided that once she got back, she had to push the game forward faster—maybe by the time the princess returned with her baby, it would already be in open beta!
The guests gradually left. Finally, Wander strolled over.
He wore a simple white T-shirt, showing off his great physique. A silver earring gleamed by his ear, his expression carefree and unruly, attracting plenty of attention from women.
Ning Yi smiled and waved. “Bro.”
Wander had just witnessed Ding Ziyue’s dramatic exit from afar and couldn’t help but be amazed.
There were really a lot of idiots in this world.
But plenty of entertainment too—
He patted Ning Yi’s head and laughed. “Have fun. I’m still waiting for you to take me along to make that game.”
Ning Yi stood straight and saluted. “No problem.”
Gu Cheng glanced over, finished exchanging a few words with the remaining elites, then walked over and stood beside Ning Yi.
He wrapped an arm around his wife, looked Wander up and down, and said calmly:
“When are you going to sort out your personal life?”
Wander felt mocked and immediately smiled with ill intent. “Me? Right now, I only want to make money with our 11.”
**Nomad: 01 = Ning Yi, 11 = Yi Yi**
Gu Cheng gave a faint snort. “Heh—”
Of course, Gu Cheng was actually quite supportive of Ning Yi making that holographic apocalypse game. It was something she was interested in, a field where she could use her abilities, and more importantly, it was a new way of smoothing over all those painful memories. Wander joining was also only natural.
After everything they had gone through, Gu Cheng felt that all survivors deserved a better life.
Ning Yi popped her head up from beside Gu Cheng on tiptoe. “Bro, don’t worry! My fortune luck is excellent!”
Wander laughed and flicked her forehead. “Got it.”
The three of them standing together made a very good picture.
Love, friendship, and years of shared experience all drifted through the island breeze.
Someone shouted from afar—
“Gu de Mo Ning, Wan Shi Ru Yi! Wan Shi Ru Yi, Gu de Mo Ning! Wuwuwu—”
Zhao Weining immediately rushed out and dragged Zhao Mochu away, apologising, “Haha, sorry, sorry!”
Zhao Mochu: I’ve shipped myself unconscious! Unconscious! TvT
They were all such good people!
Why couldn’t she stay here and keep shipping them? The tyrant’s exclusive honeymoon pampering! Oh my god—
And Assistant Zhou, who as an assistant could remain on the island to help provide Young Master Gu and Madam with better service, revealed a kindly smile.
Assistant Zhou: I shall guard the young master and madam’s honeymoon!
The netizens would definitely get sugar too!
…
In Aroga State, the sea was clear.
After No. 01.888 gradually sent off the guests, it finally welcomed Gu Cheng and Ning Yi’s private honeymoon world.
At noon, they ate kalua roast pig. The local method was to dig a large pit in the ground and start a fire, place stones around it, heat them until scorching hot, then stuff them into the pig’s belly. The pig would then be wrapped in large banana leaves and placed into the pit to roast slowly.
The pork roasted this way was tender and juicy, carrying the flavour of local spices. Aside from the main dish, there were also all kinds of seafood, salmon fried rice, avocado tuna poke rice, taro-leaf meat dumplings, and many different desserts.
Ning Yi was very satisfied with the food culture of her territory and immediately ate until she was extremely full.
After lunch, the two of them sat in an open-air treehouse, enjoying the breeze.
The scenery and voices were far away. In the wind, there was only fresh green.
So Ning Yi leaned against Gu Cheng’s leg, drowsy, and soon fell lightly asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, the sunlight overhead was lovely.
The shadows of the trees fell across Gu Cheng’s face, and his black hair drifted loosely in the sea breeze. Sensing movement, he lowered his head slightly.
“Awake?”
Ning Yi rubbed her eyes, looked at him, then pouted. “Kiss.”
Gu Cheng’s lips curved slightly, and he lowered his head to kiss her lips.
He rarely had such leisurely moments.
In the life of a business emperor, every minute and second was planned to drive value and expand territory. But now, sitting quietly like this, with Ning Yi asleep against his leg, Gu Cheng felt a very real sense of… happiness.
Ning Yi woke up fully, yawned, and then regained her energy.
She climbed up from Gu Cheng’s leg and scanned the whole island with great interest.
Gu Cheng looked at her with great interest too.
A honeymoon, being glued together, loving and sweet—of course there were many things they could do.
For example, the first thing—
“Let’s go pick pineapples, hahahaha!”
Ning Yi: Charge!
…
The “honeymoon” Gu Cheng had in mind was clearly something else.
But seeing Ning Yi eagerly put on protective clothing, he shook his head with a helpless smile and cooperatively put one on too.
King 11 had already inspected her island when she first arrived and was very interested in the large pineapple plantation behind it.
Modern pineapple planting was semi-automated, with manpower and harvesters working together efficiently. But since they were going there for fun, they would use knives to harvest them themselves. Because pineapple skins were hard, rough, and prickly, their protective clothing was also quite thick.
Assistant Zhou had long arranged the pineapple-picking activity. As soon as they entered, islanders warmly explained the harvesting tips and gave them large curved knives for cutting pineapples.
Pineapples grew on the ground. Their long leaves had to be cut away before the fruit could be seen clearly. Whether it was large or small, how well it had grown, determined whether it would be sent for juice or dipped in wax and sold worldwide.
Ning Yi raised her knife toward Gu Cheng. “Competition.”
Gu Cheng raised a brow and smiled. “Compete in what?”
Ning Yi: “Who gets the bigger one!”
After saying that, she nudged herself forward.
“?” Gu Cheng laughed, then straightened slightly with a pointed implication. “Then you’ve already lost, baby.”
Ning Yi: “Impossible!”
King 11 would definitely pick the biggest pineapple!
Assistant Zhou and the bodyguards stood guard outside the pineapple field. As the person in the world with the most convenient position for shipping, Assistant Zhou smiled sweetly.
They were so sweet! Sweeter than pineapples!
Ning Yi started *swish swish swish* cutting through the grass, searching for pineapples.
In other areas, the island workers drove large forklifts in neat rows of eight, harvesting extremely quickly. Meanwhile, the two of them were off to the side, engaged in a childish competition.
Ning Yi looked and picked as she went, grabbing one that seemed big—then turned around and saw Gu Cheng holding an even bigger pineapple.
She froze. “!”
No way—this was a battle between a king and a tyrant!
So Ning Yi dashed forward another ten meters, and finally found a *king-tier pineapple*.
Holding it up took effort, but her smile was dazzling. “Well?!”
Gu Cheng looked at the massive pineapple she was carrying and worried she might drop it on herself, so he hurried over to take it.
But Ning Yi wouldn’t let go, happily asking, “Is it big?”
“Big, big, big,” Gu Cheng said, taking it from her and placing it on the ground next to his own. He conceded, “You win.”
Ning Yi put her hands on her hips and looked up triumphantly. “As expected of this king!”
She was being smug, and Gu Cheng simply took off his gloves, brushed the bits of leaves off her head, then lowered his head and carefully cleaned all the leaves off her body.
Young Master Gu shook his head and chuckled softly.
As long as she acknowledged his “greatness” in other matters, everything else—he could let her have her way.
In the distance, Assistant Zhou, holding a camera: TAT who am I dying from shipping right now?!
Thinking of the millions of netizens, Assistant Zhou noticed the islanders nearby were already gathered, taking photos of the couple. So he pulled out a high-definition DSLR—better he take the photos himself than let others leak them!
After the photos were posted, a gossip account immediately picked them up and uploaded them to CMore.
The internet was *still* riding the high from Gu Cheng and Ning Yi’s wedding—and when they saw these photos, everyone completely lost it.
[Wuwuwu Ning Jie tilting her head up while Young Master Gu picks leaves off her—so obedient! So spoiled! Ahhhh!!]
[So sweet ahhhh is this what honeymoon couples are like?!]
[More please! I’m begging you!!]
…
In the end, Ning Yi happily drank freshly squeezed pineapple juice.
It wasn’t very sweet, but it was fresh and had no additives. Still—she had *won* with a giant pineapple, so her mood was radiant.
—and then she fed the rest she couldn’t finish into her husband’s mouth.
Ning Yi: “Hehe, don’t waste it.”
Gu Cheng took it helplessly. “Alright.”
No matter when, his role never changed.
Aside from fresh pineapple juice, the island also had all kinds of drinks and desserts.
Hand in hand, they strolled slowly along the coast, until they came across a place called ‘Sunset’—a small bar that only opened for a few hours each day during sunset.
Ning Yi sat on a seaside sofa and ordered a cocktail called “Su.”
Gu Cheng drank whisky neat, leaning back on the open-air sofa with an arm around her.
The sun over the sea slowly turned into a warm orange glow—
Ning Yi chatted while drinking, and Gu Cheng listened with a smile, not finding her noisy at all.
“In a couple of days we can go whale watching,” Gu Cheng said. “And maybe dolphins too, if we’re lucky.”
“I might not be,” Ning Yi leaned into his arms and pecked his face a few times, “but you definitely will—”
After all, he was the chosen one! The emperor among men! With that kind of luck, how could he *not* see whales and dolphins?
Ning Yi: hehe, so happy.
Let me borrow my husband’s luck.
She had drunk a little and was slightly tipsy, her cheeks flushed.
Gu Cheng lowered his gaze and smiled at her, unable to resist pinching her cheek.
…
By the time they returned to the villa, the thoughtful Assistant Zhou had already arranged everything and quietly withdrawn.
The large bed was neatly made, a faint fragrance lingering in the air. The oversized bathtub was filled, with rose petals floating on the surface.
Ning Yi rolled around on the bed a few times.
Then Gu Cheng pressed her down and kissed behind her ear. “Shall we start the honeymoon properly?”
Ning Yi flipped over to look at him. “What, doesn’t daytime count as proper?”
“Honeymoon…” Gu Cheng repeated the words, smiling faintly. “At night, we only focus on the first part.”
Ning Yi blinked, her face turning a little red. “That sounds familiar.”
Oh—
Something about “retaliatory behaviour.”
Ning Yi: you’re so shameless.jpg
Gu Cheng smiled and went to take a shower.
Meanwhile, Ning Yi kept rolling around on the bed.
She remembered how, after criticising Gu Cheng’s “battle technique” last time, she had taken the initiative to study and improve her own skills…
How exactly do you learn… *that* kind of knowledge?
Well—those kinds of videos.
Apparently, it’s usually guys who watch them. A lot of girls can’t even find the sites—
but for King 11, a computer expert, wasn’t that effortless? Like walking into an empty space!
The first time she clicked in, the sheer variety, the countless different scenarios—it completely shocked Ning Yi.
Even though she had long since abandoned any sense of embarrassment about the human body…
…this was still very different from just *that thing versus that thing* in theory!
Ning Yi was stunned—and then, peeking through her fingers, she ended up watching quite a bit with great interest, feeling that her theoretical knowledge had been greatly enriched!
Of course, there was no way Gu Cheng would ever find out about this— battle techniques had to be learned in secret, to surprise the enemy!
Ning Yi lay on the bed, reminiscing.
Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Gu Cheng stood under the shower with his eyes closed.
Under the wide showerhead, misty water streamed down along his defined brow ridge and the bridge of his nose.
And as he stood there with his eyes closed… for some reason—
Fragments of… rather *interesting* images flashed through his mind.
Calling them “memories” didn’t quite seem right.
Because they were more like… certain *clips*.
Gu Cheng opened his eyes in the steam.
He himself was cold and abstinent by nature, always focused on work, and never looked at such vulgar things—so these images were…?
Their body-swapping mechanism was still leaving behind residual effects.
Sometimes emotions still transferred between them—so this must be something transmitted from Ning Yi’s side—
Something she had secretly watched, leaving such a deep impression that it had now been passed into his mind.
A mess of “colourful” material.
Gu Cheng chuckled softly as he showered.
The remaining effects of the mechanism really did have quite a few… interesting uses.
And when he came out—
Ning Yi was sitting upright on the bed, looking serious and proper, with no hint of what had just been going on in her head.
Gu Cheng slowly walked toward her, while those fragmented images continued to linger in his mind.
Windowsill. Outdoors. Passionate little wildcat.
Scene after scene—vivid and… thought-provoking.
Young Master Gu lifted a hand to his chin. Mm.
He had learned quite a lot… *knowledge*.
His gaze on Ning Yi gradually deepened.
Meanwhile, Ning Yi wore an expression like, “I’m preparing for combat—this is a battle.”
When Gu Cheng pulled her into his arms and kissed her, she paused, slightly confused.
Why did it feel like he was already fully… prepared for battle?!
Who had misled him?!
And just like that, she was once again dazed by the “enemy’s tactics.”
The sea breeze drifted in through the open windows, stirring the soft white curtains. All the doors and windows were open, giving it a feeling of being outdoors—yet still safe.
Because this was all her territory—Gu Cheng was her territory too.
So King 11 snapped back to her senses, lifted her head, and shook it. “Wait!”
She had to take the initiative.
So she pushed Gu Cheng away and bit him.
Nibbling here and there, leaving little marks.
Ning Yi kept chattering, “Today this king will show you real skill!”
But Gu Cheng simply lifted her up, sat down by the windowsill, facing the moon over the sea and the rich night breeze.
Outdoors. Windowsill.
A cat in his arms.
He lowered his gaze slightly, brushing his nose against hers. The scent of mint leaves and whisky drifted between them.
“This kind of skill?”
The blue arc in his eyes had darkened.
Ning Yi was momentarily stunned by how *dangerous* he looked.
It wasn’t until he pinned her down and kissed her for a while that she suddenly realized—
Wait. Why did this scene feel so familiar?
Hmm?
Hmm??
“You cheated!”
Gu Cheng chuckled softly, deepening the kiss until she couldn’t speak.
“Just doing it.”
