Seeing the report, Tang Xian furrowed his brows instinctively after a brief mont of surprise.
The parents of both individuals disappearing thirteen years ago could be a coincidence.
Both their mothers having the surna Zhong could also be a coincidence.
And both individuals exhibiting symptoms akin to a lack of emotions and possessing extre computational abilities might still be considered coincidental.
But when all these coincidences pile up and the realization that there are so many coincidences hits, it's a bit hard for Tang Xian to simply accept them as re coincidences.
The feeling was complex.
Even though his life was not devoid of a younger sister to look after, soone like Tang Xiaojiu could play that role.
Yet, Tang Xian still felt a faint sense of loss.
He chuckled, crumpling the DNA report into a ball and tossing it into the trash can.
Perhaps what mattered was not the blood relation but the undeniable fact that he saw a reflection of himself in this girl.
That was enough.
After leaving the hospital, those thoughts faded alongside the scent of Laisu water in his breath.
Whether there was so connection with Zhong Xiuxiu, Tang Xian intended to find out.
But for now, those matters had to be set aside, as the wedding was drawing near.
...
...
In the following days, despite Shang Lu's repeated requests for a simple wedding, Mr. Tang Jikede spared no expense.
Even though the wedding was held within Hua Science Academy, Tang Xian organized the banquet at the highest standard.
Especially with guests including the two brothers from the Li family.
Even though the affair wasn't grandiose, it was the epito of luxury within a modest setting.
Hua Science Academy even received a substantial sum for renovation improvents.
This sum was enough to upgrade all the academy's equipnt once over.
Shang Lu and Zhong Xiuxiu were the two oddities of Hua Science Academy, neither unpopular nor particularly well-liked.
It's debatable whether the event improved their popularity.
But with the Li family brothers in attendance, their status and prestige inevitably rose.
Everyone busied themselves with the wedding preparations.
Tang Xian had to admit that seeing such a heartwarming scene in the Pyramid, a place he wasn't particularly fond of since birth, was truly hard to co by.
Tang Xian was the one who took Shang Lu shopping for clothes.
They visited Cesare Attolini, the sa store Li Xiaoyu had once brought him to.
It was only after being clad in the most respectable attire that Tang Xian, as an end-of-days level creature, bid farewell to the Pyramid and headed to the remote southern seas.
Franco, with his Golden Scissors, still maintained his usual polite smile for every custor.
Shopping for n wasn't as fussy as won; custom tailoring was out of the question, so Tang Xian helped Shang Lu pick out a suit on the spot.
The scholar transford into an elegantly handso man once he donned the attire.
However, his facial expressions betrayed his extre discomfort.
After purchasing the clothes, Tang Xian's main task was selecting the banquet's food.
Even though there were high-standard nutrition als, sothing different was warranted for variety in food.
All these responsibilities fell to Tang Xian.
The ones who should have been the busiest, Shang Lu and Zhong Xiuxiu, were the most at leisure.
As Yuan, the president of Hua Science Academy, put it:
Both were useless beyond their academic pursuits.
For example, one couldn't rember the nas of movies, and the other couldn't recall makeup brands.
Leaving the wedding preparations to them might have resulted in them discussing experintal projects instead.
Tang Xian felt this was quite accurate; all the two needed to do was ensure their own survival.
As for the myriad details of getting married, others could make arrangents.
...
...
On the wedding day, at Hua Science Academy.
There were rarely any marriages within Hua Science Academy since most of its people were balding.
This beca the most challenging aspect of the wedding—no one knew the protocol for filling out the wedding proceedings.
Thus, a 200-pound female academician, in a bid to liven up the wedding, invited several idol groups popular among young won from the second to fourth floors.
These young idols, in Tang Xian's eyes, had average charisma scores hovering around sixty.
But with makeup rivaling that of won's, they flaunted an allure that was indeterminate to Tang Xian.
To say they were unattractive wasn't true since the female staff of Hua Science Academy seed to like them, yet Tang Xian found Tang Feiji more attractive in both his human and dragon forms.
Bai Mansheng, sitting next to Tang Xian, caused no concern for recognition as he had never been there before.
Only Li Xiaonian occasionally cast puzzled glances at Tang Xian.
Aside from a few exceptions such as Zhong Xiuxiu, the majority of won in Hua Science Academy fell into the "female scientist" category.
Li Xiaonian always respected won and was not superficial.
Still, he couldn't shake off the thought: "I'd look better than 90% of the won here if I dressed in drag."
But Bai Mansheng was different.
Her beauty made Li Xiaonian wonder whether Tang Xian was keeping a secret lover behind his sister's back.
After all, this woman seed more seductive than his sister in every aspect.
Although Bai Mansheng had no experience with weddings, Tang Xian knew so etiquettes and selected an off-white gown for her.
The attire didn't overshadow the bride, but Bai Mansheng's stunning height and ice queen deanor certainly drew attention.
