Chapter 49
At four o'clock in the afternoon, a mysterious small group inside the "Yimeng" game media company.
Zhizhiberry: Oh no! Oh no!
Zhizhimeimei: Rumor has it that we have to work overtime tonight!!
Xiao Juan'er: ? ? This actually happened.
Xiaojuaner: Why? I haven't worked overtime in a long time.
The management of "Yimeng" is very humane. Not only does it provide generous benefits, but it also respects the private lives of employees and advocates that "only those who enjoy life can work better."
Therefore, unless there is an extremely urgent task or some special situation occurs, all employees leave work on time.
Zhizhimeimei: I don’t know, I just heard it from someone else.
Zhizhimeimei: Is Her Majesty the Queen's personal maid here?
Zhizhimeimei: Is there any reliable information @A Little Lamb?
Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Yang, Jiang Zhuoyan's assistant, surfaced.
A little lamb: What are you arguing about? I’ll wait for the notification later.
A little lamb: Get ready to grab the opportunity to work overtime, don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Zhizhi Berry: What are you grabbing?
Xiao Juaner:???
Xiaojuaner: Xiaoyang, have you gone crazy from working so hard? You're still trying to snatch overtime?
Although Yimeng's overtime pay is much higher than other companies in the industry, after a day of high-intensity work, employees still prefer to go home to recharge and rest, or call a few friends to go out and have fun.
A little lamb: Five times the overtime pay.
Xiao Juaner:!!!
Zhizhimeimei: The young master???
Xiaojuaner: What kind of job is so expensive?
Zhizhi Meimei: Who cares? For that price, I can go to a construction site and swing a sledgehammer.
A little lamb: I don’t know either.
A little lamb: Her Majesty the Queen said it was her own private matter, and everyone felt sorry for it, so they gave more.
Zhizhimeimei: Your Majesty is too polite.
Xiao Juan'er: Please give me your orders!
***
The most high-end wedding satisfies the players' fantasies about the world of martial arts to a great extent.
The bride was dressed in red attire for ten miles, with phoenix crowns and colorful robes. The carriages for welcoming the bride were lined up from one end of the street to the other. The majestic horses were draped with gorgeous red silks. It was a spectacular sight at first glance.
Chen Fengni and Zhezhi sat together in the front carriage and passed through the huge crowd.
According to the wedding process, after picking up the bride, the newlyweds will parade around the city and receive blessings from relatives, friends and passers-by.
In the bright spring scenery of the ancient city, the weeping willows on both sides of the road are tied with thin red ribbons, looking joyful and swaying gently in the breeze.
The players following the wedding car were very enthusiastic. They scrambled to grab the red envelopes scattered from the convoy, and occasionally used some skills with beautiful special effects to liven up the fun.
"Not bad?"
Shen Fengni heard the people around her ask.
She smiled and answered seriously, "Perfect."
In fact, as a person, Shen Fengni was not used to such a bustle, nor was she used to being the focus of the crowd, especially when the number of onlookers was much larger than she expected, she felt even more at a loss.
But the presence of broken branches can offset all the discomfort.
When Chen Fengni thought about these people sending blessings to herself and Zhezhi, she felt that everyone was a kind-hearted person and there was nothing to be socially anxious about.
Zhezhi moved closer and clasped his hands under his wide sleeves. "As long as you like it."
Shen Fengni looked at her and said, "I like it very much."
Whether it is Zhezhi or Jiang Zhuoyan, they rarely wear bright and eye-catching colors. Today, they suddenly put on wedding dresses, which made her eyes brighten.
The dress was bright red, like the flowing clouds in the sky, and was embroidered with a lifelike golden phoenix, magnificent and radiant.
When worn by Zhezhi, it did not steal the show at all, but instead highlighted her red lips and white teeth, making her look unparalleled in her elegance.
Chen Fengni couldn't help but wonder what it would look like if this dress was worn by Jiang Zhuoyan.
Zhezhi looked at her thoughtful expression and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"I..." Shen Fengni was too embarrassed to express her thoughts and was speechless for a moment.
She paused and changed the subject, "I'm wondering if there are too many people following the car?"
Now it was Zhezhi's turn to be stuck. He was silent for two seconds before saying, "Maybe he's here to grab the red envelopes."
She leaned out of the window, ostensibly to observe the situation, but in fact she was signaling to the onlookers to stay a little further away from the carriage and not to crowd too closely together.
Shen Fengni didn't quite understand, "There shouldn't be so many people."
Sometimes when Chen Fengni and Zhezhi have nothing to do, they will go to other people's weddings, send their blessings, and grab red envelopes to join in the fun.
Even at the most upscale weddings, the largest red envelope would not exceed ten yuan when converted into RMB, and each player could only grab a maximum of five red envelopes, which together were only enough to buy a cup of milk tea.
So unless they are very good friends, most people will grab five red envelopes for good luck and then disperse automatically.
The parade is now halfway through, but the number of onlookers is only increasing, which is really strange.
However, Zhezhi did say that he would invite friends...I don't know what proportion of it will be included.
Zhezhi's tone was a little stiff, "Maybe everyone is a little free today."
Shen Fengni didn't think much about it: "It's possible."
At the same time, in the crowd following the car, several girls dressed up in fancy clothes were chatting in low voices. They were the three lucky ones who had been discussing enthusiastically in the small group during the day and successfully grabbed the opportunity to work overtime.
"I never thought playing games would count as overtime, and I get five times the salary."
Zhizhi Meimei raised her voice excitedly, "Can this kind of good thing happen more often? I suggest that all the senior executives in the company follow suit..."
Before he could finish his words, someone patted him on the back of his head.
Xiao Yang, holding a folding fan, glared at her, "Why are you shouting so loudly? Are you afraid that others can't hear you? Why don't you stand in front of Her Majesty the Queen and shout?"
"Wrong, wrong, oops!" Although Yugi had no sense of pain, Zhizhimeimei still subconsciously covered her head. "But it's really hard not to talk. Can't I just keep my voice down?"
Xiao Juaner reminded her, "Go review the precautions in the group again."
Zhizhiberry nodded honestly: "Oh, okay."
After several generations of changes, the current game cabin design has become very user-friendly. You can connect to your mobile phone even when playing games, and there will be no problem answering calls, receiving messages or using other apps.
Zhizhi Meimei opened the small group of three and found the pinned message.
Today's priority: act as enthusiastic passers-by, don't let the princess know that we were invited by Her Majesty the Queen, and don't discuss this matter in the company in the future.
To be on the safe side, please do the following:
1. Keep a safe distance from the Queen and Princess.
2. Don’t speak unless necessary. If you can’t help it, speak quietly.
3. Do not use words that reveal your identity, such as "a dream" or "Mr. Jiang"
4. Send the most sincere blessings to the Queen and Princess warmly, friendly and politely!
Zhizhi Meimei absentmindedly poked at the message, clicking it here and there, trying to engrave it into her DNA. After reading the last bit, she couldn't help but gossip furtively with her friends, "Who do you think the princess is?"
Everyone was shocked when they learned about the overtime work tonight. When they learned that the person getting married was Mr. Jiang, they were ten times more shocked.
Who is this woman who can make the usually calm and composed Mr. Jiang so concerned? This has become a common question for all employees of "Yimeng" Game Media Company.
In order not to add psychological burden to this person, Jiang Zhuoyan also specifically told everyone to keep this matter confidential and not let the other bride know that they were paid extras. What kind of love is this that is given silently and without asking for anything in return!
Even though they are just a couple in the game, there must be love between them, right?
"Let's gossip later." Xiao Yang pulled her along dutifully, "We'll be at the wedding ceremony soon, hurry up and follow us."
The hall was filled with joy, and the flickering red candles cast a faint warm glow on the people around.
Chen Fengni and Zhezhi stood side by side in the middle of the hall, listening to the instructions of the officiating NPC and performing the three bows ceremony.
Generally speaking, the "three bows" refer to "bows to heaven and earth," "bows to parents," and "bows to each other as husband and wife." However, specifically bringing in four NPCs to act as the player's parents would be a bit strange, so the game's settings have changed "bows to heaven and earth" to "bows to the Jianghu." Bowing to a plaque inscribed with "Jianghu Promise" completes the ceremony. After all, people in the Jianghu world don't mind small details.
Shen Fengni didn't care what to worship, but as the wedding process progressed, her confusion deepened.
There are red envelopes to grab during the wedding car parade, but there are no benefits during the wedding ceremony, so the people who participate in this part are generally friends of the newlyweds.
As the NPC read the host's words, Shen Fengni's eyes swept over the crowd of onlookers.
The hall was packed with people, so crowded they couldn't fit any more people in. Many had to stand outside. And the most bizarre thing was that everyone had warm, happy smiles on their faces, as if they were getting paid to watch them get married... What the hell was going on?
"Feng Ni, what are you thinking about?"
Zhezhi asked in a low voice.
Shen Fengni came back to her senses and chose to answer truthfully, "I was wondering why there were so many people watching the wedding ceremony?"
"Just joining in the fun?" Zhezhi seemed reluctant to discuss the issue further and brushed it off casually. "I'll go find the NPC to start the wedding banquet. You can go directly to the scene to meet them. Let me know when you've successfully started it."
Shen Fengni nodded, "Okay."
As time goes by, vulgar customs like the wedding night prank are no longer popular, so the event after the wedding ceremony has become a wedding banquet.
This is also a relatively lively party. The food on the table can be interacted with, and during the interaction, there is a chance to obtain snacks and small medicines that can temporarily enhance attributes. If you are particularly lucky, you can even get rare enchantments, so the enthusiasm of the people to participate is still very high.
The wedding banquet has not yet started, and the tables in the spacious courtyard are empty, which looks a bit deserted, but some players have already taken their seats in advance.
As soon as Shen Fengni entered the courtyard, she saw three pretty figures gathered together, talking about something.
She had noticed the three girls who were sitting at the door with their backs to her during the parade because their clothes were too bright and flamboyant and they liked to jump around in the crowd.
With such a personality, she should be a very lively and cute girl in real life.
Shen Fengni smiled and was about to move forward, but suddenly stopped.
The three people in front were completely unaware that the bride was right behind them and were chatting animatedly.
Zhizhimeimei: "Her Majesty's wedding was truly lavish."
Xiao Juan'er: "The highest grade, 10,000 yuan, what do you think."
Zhizhi Meimei: "But I only grabbed ten yuan in red envelopes. It hurts...Xiao Yang, why are you so quiet?"
Xiao Yang lowered his head, as if thinking about something.
She raised her head and pondered, "Just now, I thought she heard Her Majesty the Queen call out 'Princess Feng Ni'. What are these two words? Do you have any idea?"
The two girls looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.
"Think about it, have you ever heard of someone with a similar-sounding name?"
Xiao Yang was still not giving up. She frowned and said, "Why do I feel that this name is a little familiar? 'Feng Ni', where have I heard it before..."
Before she finished speaking, someone patted her shoulder gently.
Xiao Yang was startled and turned around, his eyes meeting a dazzling red.
She almost had a cardiac arrest and jumped up from the chair, "Wang Wang Wang Wang..."
What's going on? Why is the princess suddenly here?
"Hello." The woman in gorgeous wedding dress stood behind her and asked gently, "I thought I heard someone calling my name just now?"
