Afterword 5 "The Wedding that Caught the World's Attention" Part 2 (End)_3

```

Chen Fan, holding Susan's hand, spoke word by word before hundreds of thousands of spectators in the arena and billions of viewers in front of televisions around the world.

"I wholeheartedly wed you, to be your wife, in good times and in bad, in wealth and in poverty, in health and in sickness, in joy and in sorrow, I shall love you without reservation. I will strive to understand you, trust you fully. We shall become one, each other's part. Together, we will face all that life brings, share our dreams, and as faithful and equal partners, spend the rest of our lives."

In the morning light, Susan's stunning face was filled with resolve, her beautiful autumnal eyes gazing deeply at Chen Fan, as if to etch this moment of him forever deep in her heart.

"Here now are two rings, symbols of marriage. Their perfect circles represent life and love, symbolizing eternal love," Monica said, still smiling, "Now, Mr. Chen Fan, please place the ring on the bride's finger."
