But the important characters were all gathered in the living room, including Xu Fan, Xu Yixue, Tongtong, as well as the elders and friends from both families, about twenty people in total—no outsiders in sight.
Of course, there was also a famous local wedding host from Shenzhen City, a man suitably dressed in a refined suit, handsome and suave, named Gu Qikun.
Gu Qikun often hosted weddings for the city’s celebrities and wealthy, naturally having his unique flair, and was highly regarded in normal times.
However, at this moment, his face expressed nothing but utmost respect.
Tongtong in Xu Fan’s arms looked around curiously with bright, wide eyes, her face the very image of well-behaved innocence.
Xu Yixue sat like a young girl next to her parents, her hands intertwined with her mother’s, but her eyes hardly left Xu Fan, her face beaming with sweet, blissful smiles.
Seeing this, Xu Xuanyi couldn’t help but smile helplessly and sighed, “There’s truth in the old saying, ‘A daughter is a daughter all her life, but she’s not a child forever.’ She’s not even married yet, and her heart is no longer at home.”
This immediately brought hearty laughter from everyone.
“Dad, how can you say that?
I’ll always be your little cotton-padded jacket, so warm and close,” Xu Yixue playfully complained, hugging Xu Xuanyi’s hand.
“Dad, Mom, my brother-in-law treats my sister very well.
You should be happy she has found her own happiness.
And when my sister gets married, you’ll still have me at home,” Xu Yunji said with a smile, trying to reassure them.
“Right, right, right, we should be happy,” Xu Xuanyi agreed with a smile.
“So, Yun Jie, you also have to work hard to find someone you like and settle down; that way your mother and I can be at peace.”
Xu Xuanyi continued, “Xue’er, I’m very reassured to see you with Xu Fan, I believe you two will be very happy.
But your mom and I will miss you and Tongtong, so remember to visit often.”
“Dad, I understand,” Xu Yixue nodded earnestly.
“Then let’s talk about tomorrow’s itinerary.
Mr.
Gu, please go over it with everyone,” Xu Xuanyi said, looking toward Gu Qikun with a smile.
“Alright,” Gu Qikun stood up and said, “Tonight, Mr.
Xu and his party will be staying at Jinyue Xi Hotel.
At eight in the morning, Mr.
Xu will leave in the wedding convoy to pick up the bride from the Xu family.
After that, the convoy will head to Vilya Grand Hotel to hold the wedding.”
After finishing, Gu Qikun turned to Tongtong with a beaming smile and added, “Our little princess will stay with Mr.
Xu tonight and join the convoy to pick up the bride in the morning.”
“Mmm, okay, okay!”
Tongtong didn’t understand what picking up the bride meant, but her little face lit up instantly at the thought of being with Xu Fan.
“That’s the general itinerary, some of the specific arrangements can be made right now,” Xu Xuanyi said.
Xu Fan naturally had no objections.
Xu Yixue quietly moved next to Xu Fan and whispered in his ear, “Dad, really, what am I supposed to do tonight?” her face showing a hint of vexation and complaint.
Deep down, Xu Yixue would have preferred to stay together tonight and then head directly to the Vilya Grand Hotel with her family for the wedding in the morning.
But since professionals had made these arrangements, she felt it wasn’t her place to say anything.
Xu Fan’s smile was filled with indulgence as he whispered back, “Xue, don’t you lose any sleep tonight—I’m looking forward to your stunning entrance.”
“Hmph, don’t worry, I might just be so beautiful you’ll drool in reverse,” Xu Yixue rolled her eyes and boasted with pride.
“Haha…
That confident, huh?
I’ll have to keep my eyes wide open then.”
“That won’t do, your eyes are electric, it wouldn’t be good to lose composure.”
Tongtong, not understanding, looked at the affectionate couple and interjected, “Daddy, Mommy, are you going to take wedding photos tomorrow?”
“Yes, we are, and we’ll take them with the most beautiful and adorable Princess Tongtong, holding flowers and wearing a pretty pink dress.”
“Will there be flowers?
That’s great, Tongtong will make sure to look beautiful in the photos.” Tongtong blinked her big eyes, cheering excitedly.
“Daddy is looking forward to it.” Xu Fan scratched Tongtong’s little nose with his finger and said, “Tongtong will stay at the hotel with Daddy tonight, and tomorrow we’ll come back here to pick up Mommy and take photos.”
“Huh?
Why isn’t Mommy staying with us tonight?” Tongtong asked with confusion, pouting her little mouth in protest of the arrangement.
Xu Yixue couldn’t help but smile warmly, persuading, “Tongtong should be good.”
“Okay, Tongtong will listen to Mommy.
Mommy, you’re sleeping alone, make sure to keep the light on, that way you won’t be afraid of the dark.” Tongtong said with her eyes blinking and her voice milky.
“Mm-hmm.” Xu Yixue nodded and smiled in response.
After talking for a while and arranging everything properly, Elder Xu stood up first, planning to take people back to Jinyue Xi Hotel.”
“Bye-bye Mommy!” As a group of people got up and left the guest hall, Tongtong, perched on Xu Fan’s shoulder, waved her little hand gently, calling out with a face full of reluctance.
Xu Yixue also waved to Tongtong in turn.
After Xu Fan and a large number of people left the Xu Family, they got into the luxurious motorcade outside and grandly headed towards Jinyue Xi Hotel.
?????.??
Xu Xuanyi, Xu Yixue, and others escorted them to the gate until the motorcade disappeared around the corner of the street.
Xu Xuanyi said with a light smile, “Alright, we also have a lot to prepare, let’s go back.”
The wedding was tomorrow, and with so much to prepare, the Xu Family did not dare to neglect.
At the same time.
Atop a skyscraper a hundred meters away from the Xu Family, stood two figures quietly, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, but they were Westerners.
The two were dressed like professional office workers, exuding efficiency.
With their attractiveness, they would surely draw many eyes if they walked among a crowd.
However, their skin was unnaturally, glaringly white – an eerie pale not typical of Caucasian people.
Just then, the handsome man suddenly said, “Maria, the situation has changed significantly, I think we should leave.”
The beautiful woman named Maria glanced disdainfully at her companion, her tone full of mockery, “Connington, I didn’t expect you to be such a coward.
The slightest rustle of the wind and you’re scared off, ready to run?”
A shadow of gloom flitted through Connington’s eyes as he replied with annoyance, “Hmph, Maria, don’t play the hero.
You can’t tell me you didn’t feel your heart skip a beat.
Suddenly, this city is teeming with terrifyingly powerful people, with several at least at the level of a Blood Emperor, and there’s even one who’s no less than the Progenitors.
What do you have to fight them with?
I advise you to be smart and back off.”
“Heh heh…
Have you lived hundreds of years just to let your brain rust?
Do you see only the danger, and not the opportunity hidden beneath it?” Maria said coldly as she turned and walked toward the staircase, sparing no politeness in her tone.
“Damn it!”
Angered, Connington’s face showed his irritation, but still, he followed her downstairs.
