One evening at the end of December, Du Wenli suddenly came to the courtyard.
"Brother Duan, sister-in-law!"
"Wenli, you are such a rare guest. Come in, come in. Have you eaten yet? Sit down and eat with us."
"Thank you, Brother Duan. No thanks. I ate in the school cafeteria."
"Brother Wenli, please take a seat."
Although Duan Donglin and Gao Hongmian did not appreciate Du Wenli's character, they still welcomed him.
They all came to Beijing together at the beginning, and they were still quite enthusiastic towards him.
Shen Xiaobei glanced at him coldly, continued to sit and eat, and ignored him.
Du Wenli glanced around at the people at the dinner table and didn't see Kong Wanwan, so he felt a little relieved.
However, when his eyes fell on Shen Xiaobei's bulging belly, his eyes dimmed for a moment, and his heart felt a little sour.
She is pregnant again!
She is so willing to have a baby for Duan Xichuan, haha, it seems that they are really in love!
"Brother Duan, sister-in-law, Xiaobei, I'm here today to give you invitations."
"Send an invitation?"
"Yes, sister-in-law, my college classmate Bai Lisha and I will be getting married on New Year's Day. I hope you, Brother Duan, and Xiaobei will all attend."
After saying that, Du Wenli took out two red invitations from his bag.
One was handed to Gao Hongmian, who immediately took it, opened it, and began to read it together with Duan Donglin.
One was given to Shen Xiaobei, but Shen Xiaobei did not reach out to take it.
Du Wenli suddenly looked embarrassed and had to put the invitation on the table awkwardly.
"Xiaobei, I'll leave it here. I hope you can come and join us. And Shuien and Muen, Xien and Qingen, and Aunt Zhao, everyone should go together. The restaurant we booked is quite big and can accommodate everyone."
"Let's talk about it later. I may not be free on New Year's Day."
"Haha, okay, Xiaobei, you can make the arrangements that day. However, I still hope you can go."
"Brother Duan, sister-in-law, you should be able to go on New Year's Day, right? Bring the kids and Aunt Zhao along, it will be more lively with more people. I'm in Beijing, and you're the only friends I have."
"We...Okay, if there's nothing special going on that day, we'll go."
Duan Donglin looked at Shen Xiaobei, then at Gao Hongmian, feeling a little embarrassed.
However, seeing that Du Wenli sounded somewhat pitiful, and the school would definitely be closed on New Year's Day, it was difficult for him to find a reason.
So, after hesitating for a while, I agreed to attend his wedding.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Duan. Sasha and I will welcome you to the hotel!"
"Um, Brother Wenli, you...you're getting married. Does Wanwan know?"
"Haha, she probably doesn't know yet. After I completed the formalities with her, I haven't seen her since, and she has never contacted me."
"Oh, so when you came to deliver the invitation this time, did you give it to her?"
"Haha, I originally didn't plan to give it to her. After all, our relationship is a bit awkward right now. But Sasha said that she lives with you guys, and if I only gave it to you guys and not her, she might find out and cause trouble."
"So, let's just invite her to our wedding. But whether she goes or not is her business. We just need to do what we should do."
"Wanwan wouldn't cause trouble, right? She already has a boyfriend now!"
"What, she has a boyfriend?"
"Ah? You didn't know yet? Oh, it seems I was too talkative!"
Seeing Du Wenli's surprised expression, Gao Hongmian slapped her mouth in annoyance.
He didn't say anything more immediately.
"Sister-in-law, when did she get a boyfriend? What does he do?"
"Oh, how would I know about this? She hasn't really talked to me about her boyfriend."
"Du Wenli, you're getting married soon, why do you still care so much about your ex-wife? We've received the invitation, you can leave now. Be careful when your ex-wife comes back, she might not be happy with you."
Shen Xiaobei felt very unhappy when he saw Du Wenli's bad behavior of eating from the bowl and looking at the pot.
After making a few cold sarcastic remarks to him, he ordered him to leave.
Although Kong Wanwan already had her own house in Beijing, she felt lonely living there because Fan Shixian refused to move in with her.
So we have been delayed until now and haven’t moved out yet.
I would rather pay her 15 yuan rent every month and continue to live in her courtyard house.
If she were to come back and run into Du Wenli delivering the wedding invitation, Shen Xiaobei could easily predict that there would be a strong smell of gunpowder between the two of them.
Her belly is big now, so she needs to take good care of the baby. She doesn't want to see such melodramatic scenes that will affect her mood.
"Xiaobei, Wenli rarely comes here, so let him sit for a while!"
"Haha, Brother Duan, it's okay. Xiaobei is right. I'd better avoid Kong Wanwan. If she sees me, she'll definitely start a quarrel, and then it will affect your meal, which will be bad."
"Well, sister-in-law, I'll give you this invitation for Kong Wanwan. Please wait for her to come back and give it to her for me. Thank you!"
"Okay, leave it to me. I'll give it to Wanwan as soon as she comes back."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law! Sister-in-law, Brother Duan, Xiaobei, Aunt Zhao, I'm leaving now. We'll get together again on New Year's Day."
"Hey, okay, Wenli, I'll take you out!"
After Du Wenli handed the invitation to Kong Wanwan to Gao Hongmian, he got up and left.
