As she ate and gradually satisfied her hunger, Jiang Dai began to regain her consciousness. Her eyelids no longer fought to stay closed, and she could now use a fork to eat on her own.
Yet, the consequence of being fully awake was……
After having her fill of food, Huo Rongshen coaxed her into drinking half a glass of milk by claiming it was to “replenish her energy.”
And then…… He, once again, dragged her to continue their intimate activities.
This time, they persisted from noon until the darkness of the night enveloped them.
Relying on the sustenance from the brunch, Jiang Dai managed to endure till the time night fell before all her energy was depleted.
Only then did she insist on going to sleep. However, Huo Rongshen believed it would be better to take a refreshing shower, have dinner, and then get some sleep.

Today was Sunday, and she had spent the entire day in bed. At this point, she had already made up her mind that she would take Monday and Tuesday off, but she could not afford to take more time off on Wednesday as she had an important project to work on.
If this continued, she feared that she would have to limp her way to the office even if she managed to rest until Wednesday……
Huo Rongshen flinched for a moment when he was unexpectedly slapped, but then he was amused by her reaction.
He leaned down slowly, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead while his large hand caressed her damp hair. His tender voice carried a hint of laughter as he reassured, “Don’t worry, I’m just going to give you a shower, nothing more.”
Jiang Dai’s gaze remained cautious and skeptical as she looked at him with distrust and doubt.
His smile deepened, and his voice became huskier. “I promise I won’t do anything else. Honestly, I’ve already given you all that I had stocked up for two years. If you want more, you would have to empty me out.”
Jiang Dai bit her lip and fiercely scratched him with her nails.
“You rotten jerk.”
Who was really emptied? It felt like her soul had been completely drained.

Within a week, the renowned cartoonist Zhao Chuyi suddenly fell ill and was rushed to the hospital. Despite efforts to save her, the multiple organ failure ultimately led to her untimely demise.
……
The news of President Jiang and President Huo reconciling quickly spread throughout Bao Li and Huo Clan.
This reunion was relatively high-profile, with no deliberate efforts to avoid the media or conceal their relationship from their employees.
The onlookers and gossipmongers had a clear understanding of the situation. Huo Rongshen had successfully stood out from the crowd among President Jiang’s numerous pursuers, and it was estimated that they would remarry soon.
Not long after establishing their relationship, Huo Rongshen eagerly visited President Jiang’s parents at their home with gifts.
Two months later, Jiang Dai accompanied Huo Rongshen to visit the Huo family’s old residence.
His parents were pleasantly surprised and had prepared a sumptuous feast in advance, tailored to Jiang Dai’s taste and preferences.
The fact that Jiang Dai and Huo Rongshen had reconciled brought great joy to his parents. Even so, they did not want to rush things like pressuring them to remarry, as they understood that too much haste could be detrimental.
On the other hand, the bolder Huo Shenli walked out of the compound to see them off.
With a mischievous smile, he jokingly teased, “You’re only twenty-five this year, Sister-in-law. Not only are you young and beautiful, but you’re also successful in your career. But my brother’s so different. He’s getting old. If you keep delaying, he’ll soon become an unwanted old man. So, hurry up and remarry him!”
Huo Rongshen cautiously assessed Jiang Dai’s expression, afraid she might not be pleased.
It was great if they could remarry, especially when his relentless efforts had driven the progress of their reunion——
As for remarrying, he believed it was a matter of time, and the timing was not as significant. What mattered to him was Jiang Dai herself. He would let her decide the state of their relationship, as her happiness was paramount to him.
Huo Rongshen’s voice carried a hint of admonishment as he retorted, “Why do you have to meddle in the affairs of adults, you little brat? Just mind your own business. Right now, we prioritize Daidai’s career and follow her wishes.”
Even so, Huo Shenli erupted uncontrollably, causing his belly to convulse with amusement. “You’re so timid, Big brother!”
……
Six months later, they went through the legal procedures and officially registered their remarriage.
Shortly after, a wedding ceremony was held.
Jiang Dai initially had no intention of organizing a grand ceremony since it was her second marriage, and well…… the groom was the same damn person. Hence, she saw no need for an extravagant affair.
However, Huo Rongshen seemed genuinely eager for it.
As Jiang Dai contemplated the past two years, she could not help but acknowledge the hardships that Huo Rongshen had endured. Not only had he faced the sting of being rejected by his ex-wife, but he had also persistently pursued her despite the public scrutiny and ridicule he endured. Whether it was within the upper-society circle or on the internet, he had become the subject of relentless mockery.
Since he was her husband, she felt the need to uphold their reputation.
Therefore, they held yet another grand wedding ceremony, one that would be remembered for generations to come.
The entire Huo family reflected upon their past behavior and attitudes. Regardless of the depth of affection between Huo Rongshen and Jiang Dai, they acknowledged that they had indeed underestimated the Jiang family in their previous interactions.
Everything was adorned with the “Jiang × Huo Union” for this grand wedding, from the posters in the banquet hall to the wedding invitations. It has even become a top trending hashtag.
The word “Jiang” was placed first, then “Huo.”
This wedding was special, as selected media were invited to livestream the event in real time. The entire internet was captivated by the wedding of the century, and those with good memory could not help but express their amazement at being emotionally invested in the wedding between the same bride and groom for the second time……
The wedding preparations can be quite intricate, resulting in a certain level of physical and mental exhaustion. After the wedding was held, Jiang Dai did not regret it. On the contrary, she felt relieved that she had followed Huo Rongshen’s wishes and reorganized the wedding without skipping any details.
Although it was the second time around, it felt very different from her first wedding.
Perhaps it was due to the experiences they had gone through, her relationship with Huo Rongshen had become stronger, and they had also gained a deeper understanding of each other.
It could also be that during the first marriage, she was only twenty-one years old and had not even graduated from university, so she was very uncertain about her future.
Unlike the present, she had a clear understanding of everything and was filled with confidence. Whether it was about herself, her husband, or the path for the upcoming decades, she had a strong sense of assurance and calmness.
Following the wedding in Yanjing, Jiang Dai and Huo Rongshen took a half-month vacation.
Last time, they went on their honeymoon to Santorini, which was beautiful but seemed to lack tranquility.
This time, they chose a private island with abundant sunshine and gentle sea breezes.
Jiang Dai had no interest in going to bustling places, as she simply wanted to take advantage of the honeymoon period to catch up on sleep.
Due to the simultaneous demands of work and wedding preparations, she had been incredibly busy and had not had the chance to sleep in for a considerable period.
However……
A substantial amount of time was indeed spent in bed during their honeymoon, and she did not get much sleep.
They would often stay up all night to engage in intimate activities until the break of dawn. They would then have breakfast before getting some sleep, only to wake up in the afternoon to head out to the beach.
Being on a private island meant that, apart from themselves and the attentive staff, there were scarce sightings of other living beings.
As such, Huo Rongshen grew bolder and more audacious, even deceiving Jiang Dai into joining him on the sandy shores, the yacht deck, the water play zone, the open-air viewing platform……
They left traces of their love in nearly every nook and cranny of the entire island, save for a few untouched spots.

Alright, that’s a wrap for the side story about Daidai and B*st*rd Huo. Next up, we have Liang Jingche’s side story!
