Chapter 498 Banquet



"Since we've already decided on the wedding, let's proceed step by step. However, I've had an idea for a while now, which is to hold a small banquet for relatives and friends before getting the marriage certificate."

Bai Lan looked at Gu Jiju in surprise, not realizing the conspiracy in Gu Jiju's eyes.

"Just... a small gathering of friends?"

"You can understand it this way. I will also have some professional reporters present to help us record our lives."

Bai Lan's expression showed that he was obviously flattered.

Gu Jiju was not so good to me in the past.

What's happening now?

The woman gasped and looked at Gu Jiju with great gratitude.

It was as if Gu Jiju brought Bai Lan to his territory and introduced Bai Lan to things that belonged to him.

"Of course, I'll follow your arrangements. After all, it's good to get to know friends and relatives before getting the marriage certificate. I don't mind."

"Okay then."

Gu Jiju lowered his head and looked at his phone, completely unaware of Bai Lan who was still excited beside him.

This is probably what it means to be overjoyed.

"I've already set the time and place. I'll invite some of our mutual friends. We'll just be there to get acquainted. Don't worry, there won't be any mistakes or complications."

"I'll definitely trust you to do the job."

Since Gu Jiju took the initiative to take her to meet her friends, Bai Lan would definitely not refuse.

Especially since she wanted to fit into Gu Jiju's circle of friends...

Thinking of this, Bai Lan's smile became more obvious.

Especially when he looked at Gu Jiju, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, and it was obvious that he was excited about this matter.

"Okay, that's all I have to say. I won't say anything more. I'll let you know the time and place when the time comes, and I'll come pick you up."

Bai Lan nodded like pounding garlic.

Gu Jiju's words sounded like orders.

Now that he said this, Bai Lan would definitely be extremely excited.

In the next few days, Bai Lan couldn't calm down for a long time because of Gu Jiju's words.

It was not until a few hours before the banquet that Gu Jiju sent a message to inform Bai Lan to pack up and prepare to go to the scene.

He drove over personally to pick up Bai Lan and brought her to the scene.

"Now?"

Bai Lan exclaimed and immediately put on her coat and prepared to go out.

Gu Jiju was neither hurried nor slow, much calmer than Bai Lan.

"Wait a moment, I'm not there yet."

This wait lasted for twenty minutes.

It was a very long time for Bai Lan.

It was not until a horn sounded at the door that Bai Lan realized that it was Gu Jiju who came!

The sound attracted Bai Lan's attention, and the woman jumped up immediately as a conditioned reflex.

Looking towards the door, Gu Jiju had already gotten out of the car and was standing next to it.

It seemed as if it was waiting for me to come out.

"Get in the car."

Seeing Bai Lan slowly approaching, Gu Jiju opened the car door and took Bai Lan in.

The intimate actions made Bai Lan feel a little uncomfortable.

Is it because they are about to get married that Gu Jiju's attitude towards him has improved?

Bai Lan didn't dare to say anything, but looking at Gu Jiju's actions, Bai Lan was really envious.

"Thanks."

Bai Lan got in the car and sat quietly in the passenger seat.

Gu Jiju teased herself for the first time, and her familiar look made Bai Lan feel a little flustered and unfamiliar.

"Let's go, the banquet is about to start, and everything is ready over there."

On the way, Bai Lan always felt something was wrong.

It seems that the relationship between myself and Gu Jiju has not reached such a natural and familiar level.

Bai Lan has been worried every day these days.

Gu Jiju's enthusiasm at this moment actually made Bai Lan's panic reach its peak.

"Who are these people present?"

Gu Jiju was not able to explain too much and could only vaguely reveal some familiar names.

Almost all of Gu Jiju’s friends are here today.

Bai Lan was nervous and scared, and because of the day, the smile on her face gradually stiffened.

"Don't be so nervous."

Before reaching the destination, Gu Jiju even used a gentle voice to comfort herself.

"They are all acquaintances. You will know when you meet them."

They are indeed all acquaintances.

When Gu Jiju brought Bai Lan in, a large number of familiar faces flashed before their eyes.

Even Xu Zhixu was there, and he looked at him from a distance.

Bai Lan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Gu Jiju's friends came to ask about her situation.

During the conversation, Bai Lan felt particularly awkward around him.

"You are the protagonist today, where have you been? Why didn't I see you just now?"

Gu Jiju hinted at the other party with his eyes, but didn't intend to say anything more.

On the contrary, the obvious alienation made Bai Lan standing beside him even more at a loss.

"Let's talk about it when we get back. There are too many people here today, so it's not suitable to talk to you about anything else. By the way..."

When this person said this, he suddenly grabbed Gu Jiju's arm and took the man to the side, deliberately avoiding Bai Lan's sight.

"Are you and Bai Lan really going to get married? Didn't you..."

Halfway through his words, the friend suddenly stopped talking and looked at the other person coldly.

Gu Jiju didn't respond in particular, his eyes always stayed on his friend.

When they looked at each other, Gu Jiju seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't know how to say it out loud.

"Don't ask too much about our relationship. It won't be good for anyone if you tell us. Oh, and keep an eye on the banquet today. There are so many people here, don't let any unauthorized people in."
