5 years, two wedding dresses! Li Lingyu, a little beauty of Chinese descent, how to protect his bride?

On August 18, 2013, Zhang Fan, a doctor of biology from the University of California and Yale University in Beijing, married Li Lingyu, a little beautiful woman of Chinese descent. Who would have thought that this was their second wedding - as early as 5 years ago, Zhang Fan, a 19-year-old who was a high school student in the United States, had married 16-year-old Li Lingyu once and became a legal couple recognized by Las Vegas. 5 years, two wedding dresses. How does an infatuated boy guard his little bride and grow up day by day?

In December 2007, the Sun shone brightly at The Contra School in San Francisco, USA. Zhang Fan had just walked out of the dormitory when he was hit by a tennis ball. A beautiful Chinese girl ran over to pick up the ball and exaggerated Chinese in an American tone: "Ah, you bleed!" Zhang Fan touched it, but there was no blood. The girl smiled, "My name is LISA, I'll send you to the school doctor." He couldn't help but pull up his hand. Zhang Fan touched a large bag on his head and felt that it was full of honey juice.

This was Zhang Fan's second week in the United States, and the girl in front of him was the first person to tell him that Chinese.

Zhang Fan was born in Beijing in 1989 to a teacher at Tsinghua University and a certified public accountant to a listed company. In October 2006, zhang fan, whose parents divorced and was studying in the third year of high school at Tsinghua University, was depressed, so his parents sent him to the United States to study.

LISA is Li Lingyu, and her appearance suddenly glows with a new green in his gray world. A few days later, the school held a swimming competition. Zhang Fan saw her again. The little girl who had just finished the race, wrapped in a bath towel, ran over: "Hey, is your head okay?" Zhang Fan replied to the question, praising her generously Chinese said well.

Li Lingyu told him that her biological parents were Chinese, and she was adopted by her American parents at birth. Her adoptive parents both worked in the church, and they told her not to forget the language of her country, so they sent her to learn Chinese from an early age, and Li Lingyu was her Chinese name.

Zhang Fan liked her chewing gum too much while talking, and she was full of life. He fell in love with this little Chinese beauty who was only 15 years old at the time and was still in the second grade of middle school.

Li Lingyu also gradually fell in love with this shy Chinese boy. Compared to his shyness, her way of expressing love is much newer.

In March 2008, Li Lingyu said to Zhang Fan: "Three days later is my 16th birthday. Let's go to Las Vegas for a wedding party. "Married? Zhang Fan couldn't believe his ears. It's so exciting. Zhang Fan agreed without even thinking about it. Excited, Zhang Fan also called his parents in Beijing and told them that his son was getting married...

Las Vegas is the largest city in the U.S. state of Nevada. In Nevada, a marriage license can be obtained when a girl reaches the age of 16 and a boy reaches the age of 18. However, out of Nevada, the marriage is invalidated.

It's a 9-hour drive from San Francisco to Las Vegas. They arrived in Las Vegas County, As planned, and spent $55 at City Hall to get married. In this place, known as the "Marriage Capital of the World", there is no need to take blood tests and wait for marriage, and it only takes 10 minutes to fill out the form to get a marriage license. After taking the certificate, Zhang Fan and Li Lingyu walked to the wedding church diagonally across the road, rented a wedding dress, and began the ceremony. The priest asked the two to exchange wedding rings. During the whole wedding process, Li Lingyu kept giggling, and Zhang Fan also felt very funny.

After getting married, the two returned to San Francisco. No, just after getting out of the car, Zhang Fan received a call from his mother Guo Lin. Knowing that his mother had arrived in San Francisco, Zhang Fan knew that things were not good, and hurriedly sent Li Lingyu home, so he rushed back to the dormitory building to see his mother. It turned out that after receiving the news of the marriage of their 19-year-old son, the parents were united as never before, determined to intercept this unreliable "American marriage". My father couldn't leave, so my mother rushed over alone. Guo Lin sternly counted down her son: "You don't study well in the United States, how did you get married?" It's all about marriage! You must come home with me right away! Zhang Fan was not convinced, neither he nor his mother could convince anyone.

The next morning, Li Lingyu, who learned the news, appeared in front of the "mother-in-law". Seeing the innocent appearance of the little girl with a ponytail, Guo Lin was angry and funny. Li Lingyu was very serious: "This wedding is a beautiful testimony of our growth, we are adults, Zhang Fan can't leave the United States because of this matter." When you do this, in Chinese parlance, it's 'old feudalism.' She even moved in the U.S. code to prove the legitimacy of their marriage. Then, she moved out of the United States to argue with Guo Lin, in the United States parents can not oppose the marriage of their children...

After a few rounds, Guo Lin and the two children were exhausted in arguments. Seeing that Zhang Fan was in a hurry, Guo Lin took advantage of the victory to pursue, pulled Li Lingyu's hand and said: "Children, in China, marriage is a lifelong event, and mentioning relatives, betrothals, and ceremonies cannot be less than one step." Hundreds of friends and family had to attend, the wedding was very grand, and when they got married, they had to be together for the rest of their lives. Therefore, we must wait for Zhang Fan to truly mature, and using Chinese law to marry the bride is the greatest respect for the bride. In the eyes of Chinese, you are living in this way, not counting! Guo Lin originally wanted Li Lingyu to retreat, but li Lingyu did not expect Li Lingyu to listen to the gods: "I just want this kind of real Chinese wedding, I can wait for Zhang Fan, as long as you let Zhang Fan stay in the United States!" When Zhang Fan heard this, he immediately begged his mother that he would definitely study hard in the United States, and when he was successful in his studies, he would marry Li Lingyu in the Chinese way. Li Lingyu listened and nodded his head repeatedly. Guo Lin said angrily to her son: "Okay, if you can get two doctorates from famous universities, I will promise you." Li Lingyu immediately jumped up and pulled a hook with Guo Lin.

At this point, Guo Lin had to compromise temporarily. She set strict "rules" for her two children: they can only date 2 times a month for 2 hours each time, and they must apply in advance with their parents; In January, I am only allowed to talk on the phone 4 times, and I really miss it and can write a letter; If the exam is hung up on one subject, the appointment quota for the month will be cancelled, and if there are more than three subjects, Zhang Fan will have to return to China...

Li Lingyu was furious when he heard this, but he could only accept it.

The newly married couple were about to "separate" and each returned to school. Guo Lin called her ex-husband Zhang Mingyi to help her go through the resignation procedures, she had to accompany her in the United States, and she had to stay by her son's side every day.

Love is the biggest driving force. In August 2008, Zhang Fan was admitted to 7 universities in the United States at the same time. In order to get closer to his little bride, Zhang Fan chose the famous University of San Francisco majoring in chemical biology.

At the head of the bed is a photo of Li Lingyu, Zhang Fan gets up at 5 o'clock every day, looks at the photos, and begins to read hard in the self-study room. At noon, in the laboratory, he opened his wallet to look at Li Lingyu's photo, squinted for 10 minutes to take a nap, and continued to get up to engage in scientific research. In the evening, he had been studying the subject at home until 12 o'clock, and on the wall clock next to it was Li Lingyu's own cross-stitch embroidery...

Kung Fu paid off, and Zhang Fan completed four years of biology classes in the first three months. He happily called li Lingyu and wrote his three months of achievements in a soft leather book, and wrote an ancient Chinese poem on the title page: "May the hearts of a person be won, and the white heads are not separated." ”

Li Lingyu fell in love with this sentence as soon as he saw it. She held her cheek and asked, "If there are any beautiful poems in China, copy them all for me." Zhang Fan told her that not only is ancient Chinese poetry very flavorful, but there is also a more bullish thing called couplets. So the couplet also became part of the two people's love affair. Every time Zhang Fan wrote a sentence to Li Lingyu, she had to spend many days thinking about the lower link. One day, Zhang Fan wrote in a soft leather book: "Flower can silver lantern luan dance." Li Lingyu wrote below: "Grass green golden sun phoenix singing." Zhang Fan laughed and called her: "Although 'Spring Return Painting Dongyan Amphibian is more appropriate, you are already very good! Because of the frequent letters, this in turn developed Li Lingyu's preference for Chinese characters, couplets, guessing riddles, and learning everything quickly.

In August 2010, Fan Zhang completed all the credits of the university and successfully applied for a doctoral degree in biology at Yale University with excellent results. In 2011, at the recommendation of his supervisor, Fan Zhang entered another biology research group at the University of California, Irvine to conduct research on a second doctoral project. Since then, Zhang Fan's studies have become more and more serious, and he spends almost all of his time in the laboratory. This year, Li Lingyu was also admitted to the University of San Francisco, and the two still gathered less and left more. Christmas, the two rarely get together. Zhang Fansuo spent an afternoon with the little bride at his alma mater. Li Lingyu took out the soft leather copy he sent, and Zhang Fan saw that the back was full of crooked Chinese characters, and the most written sentence was "The mountains have no edges, and the heavens and the earth are united, and only then do they dare to fight with the king." Li Lingyu said: "I like this sentence the most, very brave, very firm. Zhang Fan hugged her movingly, in the end it was the Chinese in her bones, whether it was feelings or words, she was all one point.

In the past four years, Zhang Fan has only rested for an average of four or five hours per night, and almost half of his time has spent the night in the library. He didn't have a meal that was really eating, and every time he was looking at the information while pulling rice into his mouth, doing test questions on the computer... Occasionally tired and almost collapsed, but as long as li Lingyu was given a "face time" call, Zhang Fan was immediately resurrected with blood. "Face Time" is a video call feature in mobile phones that has just become popular, and both of them like it. Guo Lin was very surprised by the motivation that love brought to her son. Sometimes, Li Lingyu rested, Guo Lin took her over, made Chinese food for the little two to eat, Li Lingyu on the side of the hand. Zhang Fan's happiness was full, and he called this scene "Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-Law Filial Piety". Knowing that he was very busy, Li Lingyu no longer bothered too much, and she usually wrote her thoughts into poems and couplets, and wrote them on "Facebook".

In June 2013, Fan Zhang received his Ph.D. degrees in biology from the University of California, Irvine and Yale. This is the biology major at two of the most famous schools in the United States. At the end of June, the American James invited Zhang Fan to join ZYMO RESEARCH Biotechnology. Located in Los Angeles, USA, the company mainly develops and produces various biological reagents, consumables and instruments used in biotechnology laboratories. Chairman James decided to hand over the general agency of the China region to this chinese guy with extraordinary learning.

As soon as the contract was signed, Zhang Fan's first thing was to rush to the University of San Francisco to find Li Lingyu. A big hug, the two could not help but cry with joy. At that time, the 15-year-old little girl had grown into a big beauty, her long hair and shawl, and her smile was beautiful. Zhang Fan wrapped her tightly in his arms: "Honey, take the time to go to China with me to get married." ”

The 5-year agreement was finally fulfilled. Since the marriage certificate in Las Vegas is only valid in the local area, the US consulate successfully issued a certificate of unmarried status for Li Lingyu.

In early August, Zhang Fan returned to Beijing with his beautiful bride.

On August 12, Zhang Fan and Li Lingyu went through the marriage procedures at the Civil Affairs Bureau of Haidian District, Beijing. On August 18, their grand wedding took place as scheduled. Li Lingyu's adoptive parents and more than a dozen friends flew from the other side of the ocean to attend this grand Chinese wedding. The two men, dressed in large red Tang costumes, bowed three times under the command of the emcee. After the husband and wife worshipped, Li Lingyu, who has always been enthusiastic, suddenly burst into tears: "Honey, I have waited too long for this day, and now we have really grown up." I understand that your efforts are not something that ordinary people can do, it is as long and lasting as the 'Taste of China'. ”

Zhang Fan tearfully translated this passage to the guests, and everyone in the audience was moved. The most touching thing is that Zhang Fan has divorced, but he has not yet reorganized his parents. The two were touched by the love experience of their son and daughter-in-law, and they reconciled at their son's wedding.

Putting on the bride's wedding dress again, Zhang Fan thanked Heaven for giving such a beautiful girl to him as a wife. After marriage, he registered the "Providence Biochemical Reagent Company" in Beijing under the name of "Providence". At the end of August, once ZYMO's products were introduced, they immediately attracted the attention of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Peking University, Fudan University, Union Hospital, Cancer Hospital and other institutions, and the prospects were promising.

Now, the honeymoon of the two is over. Li Lingyu is about to return to San Francisco to continue his studies, and Zhang Fan is going to start running between the two countries to take care of business. The beautiful life slowly spread out in front of the two people, like a brocade...
