Chapter 85: What will it be like when I go through the betrothal and wedding ceremonies?
It goes without saying that someone is deliberately inducing summer dormancy.
While sending his online army to guide public opinion, Zhao Wei also sent people to inquire about the situation.
Summer couldn't sleep either, anxiously waiting for news.
Finally, Zhao Wei called me late at night.
"Nothing was found. The other party did a very clean job, but the buzz has been temporarily suppressed."
Xia Mian racked her brains: "I don't think I've offended anyone recently."
“It’s better if we’ve offended them, because we can quickly pinpoint the target. This is the most difficult to deal with,” Zhao Wei paused, then instructed, “The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. Be more discreet for the next few days and don’t give them any more leverage.”
"I wasn't trying to create a persona!"
Sensing Xia Mian's grievance, Zhao Wei said calmly, "In the entertainment industry, if you want to go far, you have to get used to the mudslinging, the rough roads and thorns that are thrown at you from time to time. If you want to walk the smooth road, hurry up and leave the industry and go back to Longxi No. 1 to find your family."
Zhao Wei also assumed that Xia Mian came from a slum. Of course, since he had visited Longxi, he had no doubts about Xia Mian's character—he knew that Xia Mian disdained to create a persona and spent her husband's money.
And that was indeed the case; Xia Mian choked for a moment.
"Fortunately, the next two episodes focus on Zhou Xia and her partner, not you, so we can take it easy. Have you bought their wedding gift yet?"
The wedding of Zhou Ting and Xia Mingzhao is the day after tomorrow. In the past two days, the program team has been setting up equipment at the wedding venue to record this "wedding of the century" in every way.
"Not yet, I'll pick one tomorrow."
"If you're too lazy to go out, you can ask Chestnut to do it."
Xia Mian responded and said goodnight to Wei Ge with a pitiful expression.
Perhaps he was tired from playing golf the other day, Xia Mian really didn't want to go out, but he had no choice. Besides buying gifts for the main characters, he also had to go back to the Xia family home.
The marriage of Xia Mingzhao and Zhou Ting is the biggest happy event in the Xia family in recent years. Xia Dongbo and Tang Wenhua attach great importance to it. As their "family member", how could Xia Mian not show up?
He returned to Xia Garden early, and the entire garden had been completely transformed. The lawn had been replaced, the flowers and plants had been changed to brighter colors, and lanterns and decorations were everywhere, from the pavilions and rockeries to the villas, creating a festive and lively atmosphere.
Xia Dongbo was entertaining relatives who had come from afar at the old house, leaving Xia Garden to Tang Wenhua. She was busy checking each item on the checklist, barely having time to breathe.
Upon seeing Xia Mian, she asked in rapid succession, "Have you prepared your clothes for tomorrow?"
Many relatives will be attending the wedding banquet, including those from the Zhou family. If you are not dressed appropriately, you may be ridiculed by the guests.
"Ready, overcoat, white shirt, dress pants." Tomorrow Xia Mingzhao is the main character, so he definitely can't wear a suit to avoid stealing the spotlight, but he also can't dress too casually. This is the most suitable combination.
Tang Wenhua nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, that's good. I heard from Mingzhao that your program will be recorded in its entirety. If you want to meet your relatives tomorrow, I can introduce them to you. If you want to focus on recording the program, that's fine too. They'll still be here when you and Third Master get married anyway, so it won't make a difference this time."
As he spoke, Tang Wenhua glanced at Xia Mian.
It's a familiar story; she's both probing and urging.
Xia Mian already knew the approximate date, but Zhou Pingchuan didn't want to say, and he couldn't reveal it casually either, so he changed the subject: "Yes, I heard it's going to be recorded with multiple cameras. I wonder how it compares to a professional wedding videographer."
Tang Wenhua's attempt to find out more failed. Not having time to chat with him, she simply said, "I'll have dinner at home tonight," and went back to discussing the process.
Marriages between prominent families have always been a focus of media attention, especially since the Xia family intended to use their in-laws to revive their fortunes and had contacted many media outlets.
Three days in advance, various news outlets and tabloids began reporting on the wedding's progress, attracting significant public attention.
It is said that the Zhou family spent a fortune on this wedding, determined to make it as noble and luxurious as possible to demonstrate their status.
Moreover, because it was an outdoor lawn wedding, it couldn't be completely enclosed, so the paparazzi secretly tried using drones and actually managed to take a few photos of the construction site.
"I've never seen such a lavish setup before," the paparazzi exclaimed dramatically. "It's both extravagant and romantic, unprecedented and unparalleled. It truly deserves to be called a 'wedding of the century' and a 'billion-dollar groom'!"
The public is even more excited.
That evening, the WeChat group for "Our Little Days" also became lively.
As per the director's instructions, all guests in Beijing must attend the wedding tomorrow.
Rebecca: [How are the grooms doing with their preparations? They must be swamped!]
Xia Mingzhao: [Yeah, I'm making the final alterations to the dresses. There are six in total, and I'm altering them from start to finish. It's a real whirlwind.]
Even girls don't necessarily wear six outfits to their wedding. Usually, one morning robe, one Xiuhe dress, one main wedding dress, and one toast dress are enough. Xia Mingzhao actually wants to wear six outfits!
Rebecca clicked her tongue: "[You'll have to change your hairstyle several times tomorrow, it must be tiring. You guys should get some rest.]"
Xia Mingzhao: [I originally only chose two or three sets, but A-Ting said that this is a once-in-a-lifetime event and I can't have any regrets, so he insisted that I choose more.]
Rebecca: [That means he loves you and values you. Looking forward to your wedding of the century, you billionaire groom!]
Xia Mingzhao: [Stop teasing me, I'm going back to altering clothes. Goodnight everyone.]
The two of them were chatting animatedly in the group chat, and after seeing some information about Xia Mingzhao's wedding during the day, Xia Mian suddenly felt a little uneasy.
What will it be like when I attend the betrothal ceremony and get married?
Zhou Pingchuan is so pragmatic; he probably just wants to go through the motions and get by.
Thinking about this, Xia Mian felt a pang of sadness. It wasn't that he liked to compare himself to others; his thoughts were somewhat similar to Zhou Ting's. If they couldn't return to the real world, this might be their only wedding in this lifetime.
He values rituals, and he wanted to make this important life milestone grand and solemn.
Or... should we try to find out what they think in person?
Xia Mian took out her phone, her face twitching, and sent a WeChat message to ATM: "The production team wants us to attend a wedding tomorrow, are you going?"
Five minutes later, the message bar was empty.
Xia Mian suddenly remembered that Xia Mingzhao had said some time ago that Zhou Pingchuan probably wouldn't go to the wedding, as he didn't like being in contact with the media.
I'll ask again after I'm done with these next few days, sigh.
