June 20th
Qin Zifu's 23rd birthday, Qin Zifu and Qi Jingchen's engagement banquet.
Qin Zifu wore a custom-made pink dress with an off-the-shoulder design adorned with pink feathers and a fishtail hem, showcasing her great figure. Around her neck was the Paraiba necklace that Qi Jingchen had purchased for 600 million, which resembled a frozen lake.
Right now, she and Qi Jingchen are greeting guests. One after another, the guests are arriving, and her face is almost frozen from smiling.
Are you tired?
"A little"
Today, in order to look pretty, she chose high heels that were about 10 centimeters high, and her feet are already sore.
"Let me take you to rest."
"That's not a good idea, there are still many people who haven't arrived."
"fine"
Qi Jingchen took Qin Zifu to the rest room.
"Will this really work?"
"It's alright, your parents are downstairs. I'll call you when the ceremony starts, then you can go down."
"Alright, then you can go down now."
Qi Jingchen stood in front of her, bent down and kissed her red lips. He propped himself up on the sofa with his arms, and his tie slipped down with his movement, falling on her chest, which tickled her a little.
"Stop kissing me, your makeup will be ruined."
"Have someone come in and touch up your makeup."
"Then stop kissing and hurry up and get downstairs. There are so many guests."
"good"
"Okay, then let Nuonuo and Shuyu come over."
I'll go call them.
After saying that, he gave her a light peck on the lips.
"Oh dear, let's get out of here quickly."
After Qi Jingchen left for a while, the makeup artist came in to touch up his makeup, and then Su Nuo, Tang Shuyu, and Cheng Xingran came over.
"Miss Qin, let's change our clothes first, then touch up our makeup. We also need to change our hairstyle later."
"good"
Do you need my help?
"No need, it's enough that they're here."
"Okay, I'll go out first. Call me when you're dressed; I'll be right at the door."
"Thanks"
"Did all the prominent figures in Beijing attend your engagement banquet? Mr. Qi, you've really gone all out!"
"I only found out when I arrived today."
I'm tired of using the word "envy."
Tang Shuyu said as she helped Qin Zifu with her clothes.
"Don't be envious, you'll all have that in your time. Besides, if you become my sister-in-law, you won't be any worse off than this, I guarantee you that."
"Don't even mention it, the soundproofing is terrible."
"knew"
Cheng Xingran was unaware of Tang Shuyu's situation, and now it seemed as if she had discovered some earth-shattering secret.
The three of them were amused by her expression.
"Xingran is so cute"
"I don't know anything about this."
"Haha, I'll tell you then, and you'll definitely know everything clearly."
That's more like it.
I'm so tired.
"I'll endure the fatigue, I have to look beautiful today. Your CEO Qi is such a detail-oriented person, and the key is that he doesn't mind the trouble."
It would be a lie to say that Su Nuo has no regrets about her marriage; she has simply gone from feeling very regretful to being more accepting of it now.
"Nuonuo will have it."
"Okay, I'll try my best. Next time I get married, I'll find someone willing to host the wedding."
"That sounds good, Xingran. Do you and Ling Zhiyi have any plans?"
"We don't have a plan, and it's uncertain whether we'll even get married, so let's just enjoy life while we can."
While they were changing clothes and chatting, their conversation was overheard by Ling Zhiyi and Zhou Yixing, who had come to find Qi Jingchen.
"Are you even capable? Your ex-wife is going to marry someone else, and it's your fault for not holding a wedding for her."
Are you sure you can handle it? Your girlfriend thinks you two can't get married.
The two didn't linger, neither speaking, each lost in their own thoughts, and turned to go downstairs.
Now she's changed into a new Chinese-style dress that combines traditional Chinese charm with modern aesthetics.
The moon-white cheongsam, embroidered with silver thread, shimmers subtly as you walk. The collar of the cheongsam hugs your swan-like neck, and the area from the collar to your chest is made of almost transparent tulle. The back has a cutout design, with only a single pearl chain connecting the collar to your waist, revealing your entire beautiful back.
The near-perfect waist-to-hip ratio accentuates the curves of the cheongsam, and the skirt length reaches the instep, with a back slit that doesn't hinder walking.
"This outfit suits you so well!"
"Yeah, I fell in love with it immediately; I felt like this was the perfect outfit for me."
"Honestly, your figure is amazing. If you were just a little thinner, it wouldn't be perfect."
The makeup artist gave her a hairstyle that suited the cheongsam, with her hair pulled back and adorned with a silver hairpin inlaid with pearls, making her look gentle and elegant.
When Qi Jingchen came to pick her up, he was also amazed. Although he had seen her try on clothes before, the clothes hadn't been altered to fit properly, and she hadn't done any special makeup or hair.
"The baby is so beautiful"
Qi Jingchen whispered in her ear and kissed her neck.
"Stop fooling around, time's up."
It was an auspicious time that had been chosen beforehand, and we can't delay it.
The engagement ceremony was relatively simple, without too many formalities. The two signed the engagement agreement, exchanged engagement rings, and exchanged betrothal and dowry lists. Then, Madam Qi and Madam Gu expressed their gratitude.
Then Qi Jingchen and Qin Zifu started dancing, and the spotlight shone on them.
We hadn't practiced much before, so now it's all about teamwork.
At first, the two coordinated their dance steps, but later Qi Jingchen put his arms around Qin Zifu's slender waist, and Qin Zifu wrapped her arms around his neck.
The atmosphere at the scene was electric.
"Give me a kiss, don't just hug me."
The young people started to cheer, and Qi Jingchen, who was in a good mood today, did not refuse them and leaned down to kiss them.
The atmosphere at the scene became even more heated.
After the kiss, Qi Jingchen whispered in her ear, seemingly whispering sweet nothings, but in reality, they were discussing something.
"Baby, how about we don't wear that cheongsam later?"
From the moment he saw her in this outfit, he didn't want her to change into another one. She looked so beautiful in a cheongsam.
"Why? Didn't you say we'd change into another outfit after the ceremony?"
"My baby looks so beautiful in that cheongsam, I don't want anyone else to see her."
"No way, of course I have to wear it, it looks beautiful!"
"How about wearing it home?"
"not good"
After the first dance, Qin Zifu went to change her clothes.
Bai Jin and Xu Yuan came together. Both of them are artists from Gu's Entertainment Company. Their drama has just started airing, so they occasionally appear together to increase their popularity.
Moreover, the Xu family also has connections in Beijing's social circles, so they came along today.
"Hey bro, I knew it! You had to come back for your sister's engagement."
I just got back a couple of days ago.
The two hugged.
"Let me introduce you, this is the Xu family's daughter, my date today."
"It's you?"
I felt a sense of familiarity from afar, and it turned out to be true.
"You two know each other?"
I've met him once.
"What do you mean, 'I've only met you once'? You're my savior!"
"It's no trouble at all, please sit down."
The three sat in the rest area. The two brothers chatted for a while, while Xu Yuan secretly looked at Gu Dining. Gu Dining could notice that she was staring at him, but he did not respond to her.
Su Nuo and Tang Shuyu picked out two desserts and each grabbed a drink, then looked for a place to rest.
"Gentlemen, come over here. Xingran has gone to the restroom and will be back soon."
Ling Zhiyi stood up and beckoned to them, so the two of them had no choice but to go over.
"Didn't you go dancing?"
"I don't want to go, I want to wait for Fufu here."
Someone wanted to ask the two of them to dance, but they politely declined. Su Nuo doesn't like to be in close contact with strangers, and Tang Shuyu doesn't want to dance with others, but Gu Di'an didn't invite her.
Gu Di'an was second only to Qi Jingchen in terms of being busy, and had no time to think about this matter.
Ling Zhiyi did dance a song with Cheng Xingran.
"Mr. Zhou, may I have this dance?"
