At 6:10 in the evening, Su Tiantian changed her clothes and sat on the sofa, holding her belly. "Brother Jing, help me get the pearl jewelry set from the safe. I need the necklace, bracelet, earrings, and brooch. Take out your pearl brooch as well."
Liu Jingze said, "Okay, the dinner won't start until around 7 o'clock, don't worry. Tiantian, do you want to eat something first?"
Su Tiantian asked, "I had cake and fruit at 5pm, so I'm not hungry now. Will Li Lingyue go to Chen Shaogang's wedding tonight?"
Liu Jingze placed the jewelry he had taken out on the coffee table and said, "He invited guests. He invited a table of high school classmates and a table of college classmates. What? Is he jealous?"
Su Tiantian naturally extended her hand and let Liu Jingze put the bracelet on her. Her tone was a little emotional. "Are you kidding? Who's jealous? It's not my turn to be jealous tonight. I'm Mrs. Liu, the one you married with a formal arrangement. I'm pregnant soon. Li Lingyue is your ex-girlfriend you don't want to mention. What do you think she would do if she saw me? The 300,000 yuan she paid back to Dad on behalf of her brother is still lying in my bank account. She's a bit pitiful. She's paying off her brother's debts. I don't know if she really loves her fiancé. She's accepting such a high betrothal gift from others. I'm afraid her husband's family will have opinions in the future."
Liu Jingze put the bracelet and then the necklace on Su Tiantian. Su Tiantian's cute mouth continued to chatter: "I guess Li Lingyue will be jealous when she sees me. Does Chen Shaogang's bride know that Chen Shaogang has a crush on Li Lingyue? If she knows, she will be jealous too. If she doesn't know, she seems a little innocent and pitiful. Does Li Lingyue's fiancé know that Li Lingyue likes you? Does he know that Chen Shaogang likes Li Lingyue? If he knows, he will be jealous too. It's really confusing. It's rare that you and Chen Shaogang can't be friends because of Li Lingyue. You are both rational enough..."
Liu Jingze couldn't help but kiss this chattering mouth.
Liu Jingze's kiss made Su Tiantian calm down instantly. She widened her eyes slightly, then raised the corners of her mouth and kissed Liu Jingze back.
After a moment, Liu Jingze let her go, gently scratched her nose, and said with a smile, "You, you can't stop talking about these things. I believe you won't be jealous of Li Lingyue. You just want to watch the fun. Let me make it clear first, don't blame me for their affairs when you come back. I just attended a wedding banquet out of friendship."
Su Tiantian playfully stuck out her tongue and continued, "That's right. The relationship is very complicated. I don't understand why Chen Shaogang even invited Li Lingyue. Isn't it awkward? By the way, Brother Jing, how much gift money have you prepared for Chen Shaogang's wedding?"
Liu Jingze helped Su Tiantian put on the brooch while answering, "According to the market conditions here, and given our long-standing friendship, I prepared a generous red envelope. However, according to our local customs, when friends get married, they don't accept red envelopes. They touch and return them. So I didn't accept his red envelope when I got married."
Well, the so-called thick red envelopes are just for show, so even if you attend multiple wedding banquets in a month, as long as they are not the wedding banquets of close relatives (close relatives may require you to drink tea or even buy gold items), you don’t have to spend any money.
After packing up, the two set off for the hotel. Along the way, Su Tiantian looked out the car window at the scenery outside. The rain had been falling since morning, not too heavy, but a little dense, bringing a noticeable chill.
Su Tiantian thought about the people she was about to meet and couldn't help but find it funny. She really wasn't jealous at all. No matter how beautiful his ex-girlfriend Li Lingyue was, Liu Jingze didn't like her and didn't have her in his heart. When they were in love before, they didn't take the last step. It wasn't worth being jealous. Besides, she had known Liu Jingze longer than Li Lingyue.
When they arrived at the hotel parking lot, Liu Jingze said, "Azhi, wait for me nearby."
The bodyguard, Azhi, who was driving, said, "I understand, Mr. Liu."
Liu Jingze carefully helped Su Tiantian out of the car and slowly walked into the wedding venue. As soon as they stepped in, many people cast their eyes on them, some with envy and some with blessings. Su Tiantian's belly was very conspicuous, and those who knew them knew that the Liu family was about to welcome a new life, and this is how they expressed their joy.
Chen Shaogang works as a credit manager in a bank. The Liu family is also well-known in the town, and many of the guests Chen Shaogang invited know Liu Jingze.
Chen Shaogang and the bride were welcoming guests at the door. When they saw Liu Jingze and Su Tiantian, they hurried over to greet them.
"Jingze, sister-in-law, you are finally here!" Chen Shaogang's face was full of smiles, and the bride was also smiling sweetly beside him.
Su Tiantian looked at the bride and praised her sincerely, "The bride is so beautiful, Shaogang, you must cherish her."
The bride smiled shyly and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I've heard Shaogang talk about you a long time ago, and I finally get to see you today."
At this moment, Su Tiantian caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye. It was Li Lingyue. She was wearing a fitted purple dress with a beige cashmere coat. Her makeup was delicate and she looked as beautiful as ever, but there was a hint of complexity in her eyes.
It's true that she's beautiful, but I don't know if she's freezing. After all, it's quite cold in the south on rainy nights in winter. Su Tiantian saw the temperature was 11 degrees before she went out to change clothes, so she dressed quite warmly. She wore a loose, off-white, long, round-neck wool sweater, paired with black maternity fleece leggings, a royal blue long cashmere coat, and black low-heeled ankle boots.
Liu Jingze wore a light blue sweater, a light blue shirt underneath, dark gray trousers, and a dark gray cashmere coat, showing his elegance and demeanor.
Both the couple wore a brooch with iridescent pearls as the main feature, which was a couple's style and very eye-catching.
Li Lingyue was slightly startled when she saw Su Tiantian and Liu Jingze, then she walked up to them and said hello: "Jingze, it's been a long time since we last met. How have you been recently?"
