Although it was a lowered whisper, Ji Niandong immediately recognized who it was beside her, "Husband, are you listening?"
Even though she was calling out "husband" in a soft and sticky tone, her hand involuntarily grabbed her skirt hem.
Lu Beichen switched the phone to the other side and began to slowly unfasten his seatbelt, "I’m negotiating a collaboration with the Ning Family. Coincidentally, Xiyao is discussing the wedding date with Ning Zesheng. Xiyao doesn’t have other family members in the country, so as her Little Uncle, I came with her!"
"Then when can you make it to the hotel? Today is Dad’s first wedding!" She bit her lip and said, "Dad also wants you to come!"
"I’ll do my best! There are some matters about the collaboration that need discussion!"
"Does it have to be today?"
She suddenly became somewhat stubborn, Lu Beichen replied softly, "It’s the Ning family’s request!"
"Alright, then you all go ahead and discuss business!" She paused for a moment, "We won’t wait for you here; otherwise, we might miss the auspicious time!"
"Okay! I’ll finish up as soon as possible and come over!"
Gu Xiyao had never seen him explain to someone so gently and quickly said, "If Little Uncle has something arranged with Tongtong, I can go by myself!"
The call had already ended, and Lu Beichen said blandly, "Although you marrying Ning Zesheng is an honor for the Ning family, Mrs. Ning still bears a grudge over what happened back then. She specifically called me to discuss the collaboration today and will certainly give you a hard time because of what I did back then. My issues, I naturally won’t let them affect you!"
After he spoke, he opened the door and got out of the car.
The smile on Gu Xiyao’s face grew a little, "So Little Uncle believes now that what happened back then was unrelated to me?"
She also got out of the car, looking at him with a slight smile, "That’s fine. I don’t owe Little Uncle anything anymore! When Little Uncle told me to stay in Paris, I stayed in Paris. When he said to marry Ning Zesheng, I married Ning Zesheng. Now, I’ve proven my innocence and am about to get married soon. Little Uncle can’t meddle in my affairs anymore!"
"From now on, it’s Ning Zesheng’s business! I never intended to manage you!" Lu Beichen said, with little emotion, then went to the back seat to take the meeting gift in his hand.
Gu Xiyao said with a smile, "Actually, with Zesheng around, Mrs. Ning probably won’t give me a hard time! But, thank you, Little Uncle!"
She stood by his side, walking along with him!
Ji Niandong held the phone for a long time before coming to her senses. Why did she suddenly become so demanding again?!
She pulled out a smile, walked over, and said, "Beichen’s work isn’t finished yet; it should take a while. He’ll come directly when he’s done, so we don’t have to wait for him. Dad is right, we can’t miss the auspicious moment!"
When she said Dad, Ji Guoqiang thought at first she meant him, but then realized it wasn’t the case and turned his head back.
Zhang Huiqin heard what she said and quickly agreed, "Then let’s start!" Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Alright, I’ll give the order now!" Li Yi nodded, turned around, and instructed the staff to begin.
The melodious wedding march started playing, and Lu Sinian hurriedly led An’an over to stand behind He Meijuan, both of them holding her little skirt and smiling brightly.
Li Yi reluctantly played the role of best man, and when he was throwing flowers together with Shen Congling across from him, he noticed her eyes were red and swollen from crying heavily!
Thinking of how He Meijuan said Shen Congling was raised by her, Li Yi couldn’t help but ponder. He’d seen daughters marry off and mothers cry, but this was his first time seeing a daughter cry for her mother’s wedding!
Ji Niandong timely took out the rings they bought from them, and He Meijuan was almost moved to tears of joy, never expecting to have such a day!
With so many distinguished guests witnessing the wedding and a big star like An Lin serving as the host, she was realizing a young girl’s dream at such an old age. Marrying the man she fancied, all the hardships she endured were worth it!
