Chapter 71

Two days later, it was Su Qianran’s wedding banquet.

The wedding was planned with great fanfare. It was not just a matter between two people, but also a strong alliance of the families behind both parties.

Not only elder relatives were invited, but also those with some connections in the upper class received invitations.

The outside world has already started building momentum.

It is said that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The Yang family is the foundation accumulated by several generations. In recent years, the Yang family has come to Yang Zhi's hands and seems to have revived. Su Qianran rarely mentioned her and Yang Zhi in front of Chen Mo, but this does not mean that Chen Mo is not aware of the many problems left over when Yang Qi'an was in power. The pressure Yang Zhi has been under in recent years can be imagined. Even so, Yang Zhi has not urged Su Qianran to get a marriage certificate in recent years. Just this point, Chen Mo feels that he is still a human being.

Chen Mo went out early that day.

I just went to pick up the old man in advance.

"It's rare to see you dressed so neatly." The old man looked at him and said with a smile as soon as they met.

Chen Mo looked down at his shirt, vest, suit jacket, and even the cuffs. He looked serious, but in fact he was speechless for a moment because he unconsciously overcorrected. He paused for two seconds, then stepped forward to take the old man's wheelchair from the servant and said, "It's a wedding after all. I am attending as a member of Sister Qianran's family, and we have been partners for many years. It should be more formal."

The old man is not in good health.

But today, he looks more energetic in his red and black Zhongshan suit.

He patted the back of Chen Mo's hand, which was on the armrest, and said, "Five years ago, at your request, all reports and news about your relationship with the Yang family were blocked. In the past few years, you have completely cut off contact with your parents, and I think they are also sincerely repentant. As for the child, it is said that he did not want to come back after going abroad, and your parents have given up on him."

"Do you want to persuade me to reconcile?" Chen Mo pushed the old man out.

The old man shook his head and said, "I am already so old, I won't live for many more days. Besides, one generation doesn't care about the affairs of the next generation. I hope you can let go of these things from the bottom of your heart and live a good life."

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'm living a good life."

"Really?" The old man looked back at him, frowning, "After all, you are old enough to fall in love. Yang Zhi is married, so why don't I see you find someone?"

Love is waiting for him here.

Chen Mo felt a slight headache and changed the subject, "I've been too busy with work lately to spare time."

The old man didn't intend to let him go, and snorted, "You are still thinking about that kid from the Xi family."

And it is an affirmative sentence.

"No." Chen Mo also said.

The old man: "It's better not to. No matter which of you two started the incident, just treat it as your youth and ignorance. I remembered that the Xi family was in a critical period at that time. Later I thought that you would be the one who suffered the most from the Xi family. Since you made the decision to break up, it's over. Live your life well in the future. I'm not that pedantic. I'm not saying that you must find a girl to marry. You should at least find someone close to you to live with. You can't say you don't want a family anymore. You will end up living alone and worse than an old man like me. Do you plan to live with your experimental data every day?"

In fact, the old man rarely talked about these things with Chen Mo.

After parting with Xi Siyan five years ago, the old man never mentioned him at all.

I suddenly brought this up today, perhaps because of the influence of Yang Zhi's marriage.

Chen Mo's smile remained on his face: "The things you gave me are enough for me to spend in two or three lifetimes. There is no reason for me to say anything bad."

"Am I telling you this?" The old man said with some disappointment.

After two seconds, he continued, "I know you haven't touched a cent of what I gave you over the years, and I also know that the Yang family has asked you for many of the things that are not worth it in private. When I am gone in the future, if you can keep it, then keep it. If you can't, then donate it all. I have seen very clearly in the past few years. If Yang Zhi had the will, he could have barely supported the Yang family. As for you, you have actually chosen the right and most suitable path for yourself. No matter how hard the past was, it is over. Living a good life in the future is better than anything else."

Chen Mo tightened his grip on the wheelchair armrest.

He remembered that the old man said something similar to him before he passed away in his previous life.

The words "live a good life" sound easy, but for him in his previous life, it was a truth that he never fully understood until his death.

Chen Mo held the old man's skinny hand and said, "Grandpa, I understand."

"It's good to know, it's good to know."

The old man's slightly comforted whisper was scattered in the wind. From Chen Mo's perspective behind him, he deeply felt the cruelty of time.

Chen Mo is also deeply grateful that he has been able to take time out every weekend to accompany the old man in the past few years and have a calm conversation with him.

Chen Mo sent the old man to the lounge on the second floor of the hotel where the wedding was held and handed him over to a caregiver before going downstairs to look for Lao K and the others.

Only some of the new middle and senior leaders have come.

For a company like Xinrui that only values ability and does not rely on personnel relationships, even though it is now quite large, many of its middle and senior leaders are ordinary people who have climbed up from the bottom.

They were seated at a separate table, in the lower middle section.

Su Qianran took care of Chen Mo, and his name was also on the list.

Chen Mo went over to find the person who was sitting at the table. The atmosphere was quite lively.

"I only knew that Mr. Su came from a wealthy family, but I didn't expect him to be so wealthy. I heard that the wedding cost at least eight figures."

"Her husband's family should be richer. After all, the Yang family has been rich for so many generations."

"This is my first time attending a wedding of this scale. I feel like a bumpkin coming to the city... Hey, Mr. Chen, where have you been so early in the morning? You didn't even answer my phone call."

Chen Mo pulled out the chair between Lao and the sales manager and sat down.

"I didn't go anywhere. I just went out and bought some clothes. My usual clothes are too casual."

Everyone at the table looked at him.

Many.

"So handsome, Mo."

"Mr. Chen, you can go up and be the best man."

"That's right. Your clothes are usually quite casual. When you're away from the lab, you look like a college student, although you haven't graduated from Q University yet, hahaha."

"Just last time, we went to a meeting with several other companies, and I pointed at Brother Mo and said this was Mr. Chen, but people didn't believe me!"

…

Chen Mo gladly accepted all the teasing.

On this occasion today, I hid in the most ordinary position and was just an ordinary guest watching the ceremony.

The wedding ceremony has not officially started yet.

Su Qianran and Yang Zhi, as the protagonists, received guests at the entrance of the hall.

Yang Qi'an, Zhou Yaoqing, and Su's parents were also present, creating a joyous and harmonious scene.

Just like this perfect picture, an abrupt voice suddenly rang out.

"Dad, Mom, why didn't anyone tell me about such an important thing as my eldest brother's marriage?"

The sound was abrupt because it was deliberately raised.

And there were more than one person coming, but seven or eight.

They were all wearing business suits and were all foreigners, making for a grand occasion. Standing at the front was none other than Yang Shule, who had also not been heard from for several years.

Yang Shule has matured a lot, he still looks the same pampered guy as before, but his once iconic sunshine and cheerfulness seem to have faded from his face, replaced by a half-smile that makes him hard to read.

Chen Mo's tablemates were all curious.

"Who is that?"

"Why are there several foreigners following behind? They call the groom's parents "Mom and Dad". Does the Yang family have a son?"

This question was soon answered by the discussion at the next table.

"That's the youngest son of the Yang family. I heard he went abroad a few years ago."

"Looks like he's doing pretty well."

"But how can we not inform the younger son about his marriage?"

"Don't you know? The Yang family's affairs are quite complicated. It seems that the youngest son of the Yang family was switched. This matter caused quite a big stir back then."

"So is this guy who just appeared his biological son or a fake son?"

"I don't know. I think it's the fake son. I heard that the one who was found had a bad relationship with the Yang family. Even basic information like photos can't be found on the Internet now."

In the distance, the Yang couple looked embarrassed in front of everyone.

Of course they couldn't tell anyone that they sent Yang Shule abroad because, firstly, his reputation in China had been ruined and he had no future after failing the college entrance examination; secondly, the Xi family had sent away the prince, and Yang Qi'an, thinking that he had done his best, spent money to send him to the same place and see what would happen to him.

Everything was calm at first.

Until Yang Shule kept asking his family for money, with endless reasons.

The prices were high and he didn't want to live in the school. Later, he asked his family to buy him a house abroad. Once he didn't get the money, he started to curse, lost control, and went crazy. Later, Yang Zhi asked someone to investigate and found out that he was living a messy life abroad. Not only was his private life messy, he also hung out with all kinds of people and was addicted to gambling.

Yang Zhi asked someone to watch him and force him to quit gambling.

Yang Shule smiled and said, "I am such a person. Brother, have you forgotten? I have the blood of a gambler in my veins!"

After two years of mutual torture with the Yang family, Yang Shule suddenly cut off contact and simply said that he would never return to China and would never be found again.

Now that he suddenly appeared in this state, the people most surprised were the Yang family.

The couple had to smooth things over, explaining to him more to the people around them: "You are so far away, and your family has discussed not letting you make this trip. Why didn't you let me know in advance when you came back?"

Chen Mo sat calmly and watched the show.

After receiving Su Qianran's message on her phone, she took the time to complain to Chen Mo: "I want to vomit."

"It wasn't your choice?" Chen Mo replied.

Su Qianran: "I don't live at my husband's house, so out of sight, out of mind. Who knows if someone who I thought died in some corner can come back. Yang Zhi is finished. If he dares to get involved in this mess again, he's done."

Chen Mo glanced at the man who appeared from Yang Shule, who stood there with an indifferent expression and an obvious frown.

He smiled and replied to Su Qianran: "So far, it seems that your training is quite effective."

As soon as he put away his phone, he noticed Yang Zhu looking at him.

Chen Mo didn't understand that look, it seemed like he was a little worried?

What are you worried about?

Are you worried that he will jump out and say that Yang Shule is not his biological daughter and then ruin his wedding?

Chen Mo looked back at him coldly, almost saying: Don't look at it, you are sick.

Except for the appearance of Yang Shule and his people, the wedding process went on normally.

The crowd quickly put this incident behind them.

People from the same company are not afraid of having nothing to talk about when they sit together. Chen Mo's table always has topics to talk about, no matter what the subject is.

He occasionally answered a few words, and kept looking down at the messages on his phone. When he noticed the atmosphere paused slightly, Chen Mo felt a figure appear behind him, and the oppressive presence was beyond description.

I turned around reflexively and could only see the buttons on the waist of the other person's suit.

You can tell at first glance that it is a very expensive material.

Everyone at the table was a little unresponsive.

"Mr. Xi?"

"When did President Xi come?"

…

No one dared to let him sit, after all, his seat would definitely be close to the main table.

Xi Siyan looked down at his back with black hair on his waist, then looked up and smiled: "I just came here to talk to your CEO Chen about something."

Chen Mo wanted to pretend that he saw nothing, but turned back helplessly.

"What are you doing? Mr. Xi."

As the new generation representative of the Xi family, the person who was already the focus of everyone's attention at the wedding, holding his chair with one hand, leaned over and whispered: "Don't leave after this, I'll take you to see someone." When he stood up and left, he suddenly commented: "You look very stylish today, and your clothes are nice too."

Everyone at the table heard the following words.

"It seems that Mr. Xi's vision is similar to ours."

"Brother Mo is quite eye-catching today."

…

Xi Siyan walked a few steps away when his cell phone rang.

The account with the pinned name "Silence is not golden, it is your grandpa" finally flashed again and sent a message after a long time.

Silence is not golden, it's your grandfather: middle finger.jpg

XSY: Mr. Chen, please pay attention to your manners.
