Chapter 114 The Wedding of the Century
As soon as Su Mi returned to Jiangcheng, he was directly assigned to work in the company.
These days she has been following Chen Ning, Vice President Chen, whom her father arranged for her, to familiarize herself with everything in the company.
I am usually busy until very late, and it is already after ten o'clock when I get home.
After the car drove into the Su Mansion, Su Mi got out of the car and just walked into the living room, he heard a conversation inside.
"Tomorrow is Qingqing's return banquet. How are the preparations going?"
"Everything is ready. The invitations have been sent out according to the list you prepared." This voice belongs to the butler An Rui.
"That's good. When the time comes, we'll see what you choose."
Although Su Mi was busy, he still remembered the return banquet.
My father said that it was nominally a homecoming banquet, but in reality it was for her to choose her future husband. He would call all the candidates and let her choose the man she liked from them. The choice was in her hands.
Su Mi didn't want to make a fuss about this matter, but his father insisted on doing so, saying that the return of his eldest daughter must be announced to the whole Jiangcheng, so how could it be hidden.
Daddy always likes to do this.
Su Mi knew very well that once she chose someone, given her father's personality, the news would be spread out quickly, and the next step would be for all major media to compete to report on the exclusive.
After all, she, Miss Su, has always been the target of Jiangcheng media's enthusiastic follow-up and the most popular existence on the list of socialites. This is all because of the strong strength of the Su family and her extremely stunning appearance.
The people inside were still chatting, and Su Mi walked straight in.
Seeing that his parents were there, An Rui left when he saw her come in.
Su Boren saw his daughter coming back and said, "Qingqing, you have worked hard these past few days. Come and sit down."
Wei Rushuang waved, "Baby, come here to mommy."
Su Mi walked over and sat next to her mother. "Mom and Dad, why are you still awake so late?"
"Not yet. I just want to discuss the banquet tomorrow."
"It's late now. It won't be too late to discuss it tomorrow."
Su Boren smiled knowingly, "It's good that you know how much I care about my parents."
Su Mi said he was innocent, "I don't agree with you making such a grand ceremony, it's you who have to go through so much trouble."
"Dad, don't you think it's a problem? This will also let the other family members see how much the apple of our Su family's eye is valued. In the future, when you get married, they won't dare to treat you badly."
Knowing his father's good intentions, Su Mi was moved, but he didn't understand why his father had such concerns.
If she wanted to look for someone, she would definitely look for him among the big families in Jiangcheng. As long as she was here, no one would dare to do anything to her.
Thinking of this, Su Mi teased, "Dad, you can rest assured. With you here, your son-in-law can only be afraid of you, and dare not do anything to your daughter."
Su Boren's reputation is well-known. In the early years, with his own planning and far-sighted strategic vision, the Wantai Group he established has a magnificent momentum and is a business leader admired by everyone.
Known as a business tycoon outside, he controls the real estate and economic lifeline of Jiangcheng and surrounding areas. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the overlord of this area.
That would be fine, but the key point is that Su Boren had been to the border in his early years, was known as a combat elite, and had a strong character.
What’s funny is that he once made a bold statement in an interview that his future son-in-law must defeat him ten times.
After the news was revealed, many young men from wealthy families were deterred from coveting the Su family's darling daughter.
With a father-in-law like this, the son-in-law can only be afraid.
Wei Rushuang couldn't help laughing after hearing her daughter's words, "Your father isn't that scary after all."
Su Mi blinked and deliberately asked, "Dad, I wonder if the few people you selected this time can beat you in ten moves?"
Su Boren thought to herself that this naughty girl was still the same as she was when she was little, and now she even dared to make fun of her father. "That will definitely work. If not, we'll just quit."
Su Mi and Wei Rushuang looked at each other and both couldn't help laughing.
"Hey! Stop laughing, you two. I'm telling the truth."
Su Boren thought it was fine. "It's good this way. I have a good reputation. If anyone messes with my daughter in the future, I will mess with his whole family."
Wei Rushuang looked at her husband and raised her eyebrows. "You always make things difficult for the whole family. If you do this, your in-laws will be scared."
"Shuangshuang, this is how I am. You didn't just know this on the first day, right?"
Su Mi was listening nearby and couldn't help but ask the question in his mind, "Dad, if you are so worried, why are you in such a hurry to find me a partner? Actually, I don't really want to get married and start a family so soon."
Su Boren sighed, "There's a saying that goes, 'Girls can't be kept when they grow up. It's only a matter of time. Dad might as well help you choose a suitable one in advance. Otherwise, the longer you wait, the better ones will be chosen by other families."
"How could that be? There are so many good ones."
This time it was Wei Rushuang who answered, "It is easy to choose the good from the bad, but the difference between choosing the best from the good is huge."
Su Mi understood and chose the most perfectly carved piece of jade from among thousands of raw jades.
Su Mi originally thought that she didn't care, but suddenly she realized that it wasn't a question of whether she cared or not, and there might be someone who cared more than her.
Suddenly she remembered that there was a woman in the socialite circle who had always been at odds with her, her name was Bai Xinran.
She also comes from a wealthy family, but her family is slightly worse than the Su family, ranking in the second tier.
Bai Xinran herself is not as famous and influential as Su Mi, and the media always ranks her behind Su Mi. So, after a while, Bai Xinran began to compete with her in every way.
Although Su Mi doesn't pay much attention to it and doesn't follow the news in the socialite circle too much, she still saw the discussion some time ago.
Bai Xinran got married not long ago. Her husband is Qin Lingyun, the eldest son of the Qin family, a wealthy family in Jiangcheng.
Qin Lingyun is the most popular bachelor in Jiangcheng. He is well educated, talented, and has the best conditions in all aspects. Many socialites aim to marry him.
Therefore, Bai Xinran's ability to win Qin Lingyun has made many celebrities jealous.
Their century wedding was even more breathtaking. The media felt that it was unprecedented and spectacular. Bai Xinran became very famous for a while.
Even now, the socialite circle still supports Bai Xinran.
Su Mi thought, maybe Bai Xinran now felt that she had finally won against her and turned the tables.
After all, Su Mi doesn't have many options now.
Su Mi had known the wealthy families in Jiangcheng, but there were only a handful of them that could compare to the Qin family.
Thinking of this, Su Mi shook her head and gave up the idea. Her marriage was not for comparison.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, let's talk about it once everything is settled. Now you should go back and rest."
Seeing that it was almost time, Su Mi urged his parents to go back to their room and rest.
