Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1390 - 1095: Grand Ceremony

Chapter 1390: Chapter 1095: Grand Ceremony

In the presence of both sets of parents, the officiant, the marriage witness, and all the guests, Wang Ye put the wedding ring on Rossiyana’s finger.

This was a ring that he had specifically commissioned Cartier to make, and Wang Ye spent nearly 60 million US dollars just for the diamond embedded on it, purchased directly from the headquarters of De Beers Co.

Such an expensive diamond certainly comes with a notable history.

In 1999, De Beers mined a 133-carat pink giant diamond in Africa, which, after meticulous cutting and polishing, was left with 60 carats, but still the size of a pigeon’s egg!

This diamond is the largest and purest pink diamond in the world, and so De Beers named it the "Pink Star," keeping it as the centerpiece in the company’s headquarters.

Of course, De Beers is a company, and as long as the customer offers a high enough price, there really isn’t such a thing as a non-sale item.

For his wedding, Wang Ye had someone buy this "Pink Star" directly, offering a price that was high enough.

Then he handed it over to Cartier to design and create this wedding ring.

Rossiyana looked down at the shimmering pink diamond ring, tears of joy streaming down her face.

Don’t get it wrong, she wasn’t crying because of the diamond the size of a pigeon’s egg; after all, she is the Grand Duchess of Romanov, and the diamonds on the crown she wears aren’t any smaller than the Pink Star.

The reason she cried was purely because of the different significance of this ring—it’s a wedding ring!

Putting it on meant that she and Wang Ye were officially married, with the ceremony witnessed by the Grand Patriarch, her father-in-law, as well as numerous global dignitaries!

After placing the ring on Rossiyana’s finger, Wang Ye gently lifted her hand and kissed the back of it.

Inside the church hall, everyone stood up and applauded, sending their blessings to the newlyweds.

Next came the swearing-in ceremony witnessed by the Grand Patriarch, though it was simple—just a repetition after the Grand Patriarch’s phrase, nothing more than vows like "...in sickness and in poverty, I will never abandon..., thank God for giving you to me..." and so forth.

Wang Ye also repeated the vows earnestly and seriously, but he never really cared much about these things, deep down he was still a Chinese man...

Of course, this doesn’t mean he didn’t take the marriage seriously.

Rossiyana was certainly much more "devout" than Wang Ye, moved to tears as she spoke the vows...

After mutually swearing, the church ceremony officially ended, and subsequent activities and ceremonies were no longer appropriate to be held in the church, given its limited space and the presence of many guests who did not qualify to come.

As the guests exited, a special motorcade was prepared to take them to Wang Ye’s newly built luxury mansion, where the remaining proceedings would take place.

Meanwhile, Wang Ye and Rossiyana rode in a convertible car, escorted by an honor guard procession, towards the mansion.

The distance was not far, just a slight detour over the river to reach Wang Ye’s mansion, which originally faced the Kremlin across the river.

As the motorcade drove onto the street, people had already filled both sides of the road, all waiting to witness the marriage of Wang Ye and Rossiyana, as today was the most important event in both Moscow and Russia!

Seeing the slowly approaching motorcade, the people by the roadside cheered, their words all blessings, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

Honestly, although Wang Ye and Rossiyana are young, their status in the hearts of the people of Moscow, and especially in Russia, is genuinely high!

Ever since Wang Ye became the Vice Speaker and the Director of the National Economic Committee, and Rossiyana became the Governor of Moscow State, Moscow had undergone tremendous changes!

These citizens had witnessed these changes over the years themselves: high-rise buildings springing up, expansive roads and subway lines being constructed, and experiencing improvements in income and social benefits, with more job opportunities arising.

These all resulted from policies that they naturally knew about.

Thus, for Wang Ye and Rossiyana, the public sincerely supported and respected them. Today, on their wedding day, many people in Moscow specially took the day off work, even asking for leave, and gathered outside the Kremlin just to personally see the parade of the wedding cars and to offer their sincere blessings!

Rossiyana, holding a bouquet of flowers and sitting beside Wang Ye in the convertible, saw the enthusiastic crowd along the roadside, hearing their blessing words and cheers, her face filled with a radiant smile.

Wang Ye also smiled and incessantly waved to the cheering crowd, feeling a great sense of achievement.

This city wouldn’t be what it is today without his efforts!

And his efforts had indeed been recognized by the local people; the cheering crowd on the roadside was the best proof of that.

Although Wang Ye generally did not like to show off and always kept a low profile, today, he was the absolute protagonist of the city!

...

The full course of Wang Ye and Rossiyana’s wedding was broadcast live on NTV Television Station. According to NTV’s current coverage, almost all the countries in Eastern Europe as well as some countries and regions in Europe could watch it.
