Chapter 768 Too Sweet

Chapter 768:

After the wedding arrangements were finalized, the old lady looked at You Niannian in the video and said, "I heard from Lan Yan that your relationship with your father's side isn't very good. But you are a soldier after all, someone with an important position. Even if we're not happy about it, we still have to go through the motions in terms of etiquette. We can't give anyone cause for criticism. You should still send them the invitations. If they come, then they should stay put. If they don't want to come, then we'll save ourselves the trouble. Anyway, whether they come or not is their business. We just need to make sure things look good on the surface. But don't worry, even if they all come, they won't let you suffer any grievances! Not to mention Lan Yan, our entire Gu family is standing behind you and supporting you!"

Whether the stepmother comes or not is irrelevant, but You Niannian's father definitely has to come. No matter how badly he treats You Niannian, he is indeed the father who raised her. Even if the child support is not much, it is still there. The most important point is that You Niannian is serving in the military. Once her reputation is in trouble, her career path will be difficult. After all, filial piety is truly paramount. Even if you have not done anything wrong, if she just makes a scene, it is still unacceptable that her biological father will not invite her to her wedding!

You Niannian knew that this matter could not be avoided, nor did she intend to avoid it. Although she really did not want these people to come and spoil the fun, the political commissar's wife had also told her about it. No matter how much she disliked them, she just had to keep a straight face. After all, everyone knew their character. She just had to do what she was supposed to do, and that was all!

"Grandma, don't worry, I know you mean well. That was my original plan too. Even if they're not good people, they're still my father's family in name. I have to invite them even if I don't want to. I understand. I'll send them invitations later!"

Seeing that You Niannian was willing to listen, Old Madam Gu breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that she was willing to listen. If it were just ordinary people, they could simply not let them come if they didn't like it. They could make that decision themselves. But You Niannian was different from Lan Yan. The higher she rose in rank, the more careful she had to be. These things that people looked down on were often the most deadly knife.

"Don't worry, Sister Niannian! With us here, no one can bully you!" Gu Shu patted her chest and assured her.

You Niannian smiled and nodded: "Okay, then it's up to you!"

Lan Yan had thought about these things, but after all, she was the person he loved, and he didn't want her to suffer any injustice. As for what would happen in the future, he would deal with that later.

Seeing that the other party had agreed and didn't seem unhappy, Lan Yan patted Gu Shu and said with a smirk, "With me here, how could anyone bully her!"

Looking at the harmonious Gu and Chu families, You Niannian couldn't help but look forward to the future. Such good days were only experienced when her mother was still alive. Even after living with her grandparents, who were also very kind to her, it was still different. It was so relaxed and comfortable, without any ulterior motives, just purely for the good of family. Isn't that the meaning of family? In the near future, she will also have a home, a very warm and large home!

The discussion lasted until after 10 p.m. before it was finally completed, and a first draft of the guest list was produced. However, it still needs further consideration and will be officially finalized about ten days before the wedding, at which point we will notify everyone.

Seeing the lively scene, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Chu Yan grabbed Gu Yin's wrist, who was watching with great interest, and pulled her out to the pavilion in the courtyard.

Gu Yin asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Chu Yan sighed, leaned down and rested his head on Gu Yin's shoulder, his voice muffled with regret as he said, "I originally thought today's scene would be ours. I thought about those plans and schemes again and again, revised them countless times, and spent countless days and nights coming up with them. In the end, we didn't even get to use them, but Chu Yan got them all. Humph, I'm not happy."

His pitiful tone immediately softened Gu Yin's heart. This man always acted like a domineering CEO in front of others, but he only showed his true self to her.

Gu Yin smiled and patted his head: "Don't lie to me. The plans you made are definitely not suitable for my older brother and the others. You only gave them one of the plans. But when did you start making this thing? I haven't even graduated yet. Aren't you thinking a little too early?"

And there's been absolutely no news about it; this person is quite good at keeping things secret.

Chu Yan nuzzled Gu Yin's neck, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "At your coming-of-age ceremony, when you walked towards me in that beautiful dress, all I could think was, 'This is my bride, my bride who belongs only to me, the most beautiful and happiest bride in the world.' After I got home, I started looking at materials and thinking of a plan. As for the plan you mentioned, yes, I didn't give them my favorite version. First, it's not suitable for their status, and second, only we can use it! But this thing is still in its final stages, so I can't show it to you yet. But I also really like the plan I gave to Brother Lan and the others. I'm just a little disappointed that we weren't the ones who got married first."

Gu Yin chuckled: "I haven't graduated yet, you still have to wait a few more years, what? Can't wait?"

Chu Yan stood up and looked at Gu Yin seriously, saying, "I'm not in a hurry. As long as it's you in the end, everything is fine. Even if it takes another three or five years, I have no objection. After all, your work is the most important thing, and I'm aware of that."

At this point, he became a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, saying, "It's just that when we take our wedding photos, you can go back and apply to the higher-ups for a plan that they approve."

Not only are Lan Yan and You Niannian's identities a concern, but Gu Yin's identity is even more restrictive. The plans he has come up with may not necessarily be realized, but he still hopes to try, because maybe it will work out?

Gu Yin asked curiously, "What kind of plan is so mysterious?"

Chu Yan shook his head: "I can't say now. Anyway, you don't need to worry about anything. Just wait for my notification. I will follow Lan Yan's wedding from beginning to end. When we get married, I will have experience. Or do you want to participate?"

He knew Gu Yin; she loved watching these kinds of things, but getting her involved was out of the question. She'd rather do experiments! It was too tedious!

Sure enough, Gu Yin immediately shook her head: "I won't go. You can study. When we get married, I'll just be there to help you, okay?" She really didn't want to be busy with these things. It wasn't that she didn't care, it was just too mentally taxing. Except for experiments where she had to use her brain, she didn't want to use it at other times. She was just as lazy as she wanted to be!

Chu Yan smiled and nodded: "It's enough that people are here!"

Seeing this, Gu Yin smiled and nestled in his arms, saying softly, "It's so good to have you. I don't have to worry about anything."

Before Chu Yan could appreciate Gu Yin's rare girlish demeanor, a cough interrupted their conversation.

"Hey Ah Yin, when did you become so gentle?"

Gu Yin got out of Chu Yan's arms and peeked out of the pavilion speechlessly. She saw the bodyguard captain fishing with a fishing rod. Fishing so late at night, who knows?

"Were you hiding yourself? Otherwise, how come we didn't notice you when you came in? Isn't it a bit inappropriate to disturb someone's lovey-dovey time, Captain?!" People like the Captain have plenty of ways to hide themselves if they don't want others to notice them. Although Gu Yin isn't particularly skilled, don't forget that her hearing and eyesight are exceptional. To evade her attention, this person must have used special methods.

The captain lay leisurely on the lawn and hummed, "I was here first. If anyone's disturbing you, it's you who disturbed my fishing. As for that ability, I'll teach you later."

After saying that, he got up, patted his butt, and said, "The air is so sweet tonight, the fish Dio doesn't want to surface. Looks like we're not going to catch any fish. I'm going back now. You guys continue!" He then laughed and walked towards the backyard.
