People in this era are still very simple and honest. Things like wedding pranks almost don't exist, but the liveliness of weddings has not diminished.
Lin Yanbai and Gu Xingfan wore big red flowers and read their wedding vows in front of the statue of the great man in front of everyone. At the moment the ceremony was announced, Lin Yanbai looked at Gu Xingfan, feeling a little unreal in her heart. She really... got married... in the 1970s!
Suddenly, she thought of something: "Xiao Qi, my mission is completed, why hasn't the reward been issued yet?"
"Host, the system has determined that you have only held a wedding. If you want to receive the reward, you must obtain a marriage certificate!"
Although this requires science, most people would ask a fortune teller to calculate the date for their wedding. Unfortunately, they had to wait two days for an auspicious day to get their marriage certificate.
Lin Yanbai didn't care about the auspicious date, as long as it wasn't a bad omen, it was fine. But her brother Gu, upon hearing about the auspicious date and the promise of a happy marriage, took it as an imperial decree and insisted on carrying it out. It was a complete mess!
After the wedding, it was time for the toasts. Lin Yanbai followed Gu Xingfan from table to table, looking listless. Gu Xingfan said with some concern, "Yanbai, why don't you go and have a rest? There aren't many tables left!"
Lin Yanbai gave him an annoyed look: "Comrade Gu, what are your intentions? The bride and groom were toasting, but the bride ran away. What will they think? They might even think I have something against them!"
"Yes, yes, Comrade Lin, I was inconsiderate! I hope you can forgive me!"
Seeing Gu Xingfan's playful appearance, Lin Yan gave him a blank look: "What a bad character! Such a handsome young man, how come he becomes more and more shameless as he grows older!"
Xiao Qi: ...I learned this from someone, bah, what a dramatic actor!
After finally finishing the toast, she could finally take a break and eat something. She was almost going crazy with hunger!
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Just as I picked up the chopsticks, two uninvited guests arrived.
"Xingfan! Now that you're married, you should be nicer to your wife from now on. She's such a good girl!"
"Don't worry about it, uncle. Of course I love my wife. Just take care of your own business!" The implication is that it is none of your business, so don't meddle in other people's business!
Lin Yanbai was certain that Gu Xingfan and his uncle had a bad relationship... Wait! Wait! Gu Xingfan's uncle? Isn't that... the father of the original protagonist, Gu Xingyu?
The next second, Xiao Qi's cheerful voice rang out in his mind: "Bingo, congratulations to the host, the main storyline of the novel is about to begin. Please keep up the good work and create more brilliance!"
Lin Yanbai looked at Gu Changrong carefully. To be honest, as a man over fifty, he was in pretty good shape. He didn't have the usual weight gain that people of this age group usually have. He exuded the charm of a middle-aged man. He was indeed worthy of being the protagonist's father.
That's right, if the father is ugly, how can the son he gave birth to be the male protagonist? You know, the first element of a domineering CEO novel is that the male protagonist must be handsome!
But she didn't like Gu Changrong very much. Lin Yanbai's sixth sense was very accurate. She always felt that Gu Changrong's kind smile looked very wrong, as if he was hiding something...conspiracy!
When Gu Changrong was mentioned in the novel, he was already the top leader of Yanbei District in Yanjing City. It can be said that half of the protagonist's dream of a business empire was built by him!
But these were not important to Lin Yanbai. What happened to him was none of her business. Besides, without the blessing of Gu Xingfan's inheritance, the fact that he and his son were able to build their business was also due to their own ability.
Lin Yanbai's thoughts were all over the place, while Gu Changrong was already reminiscing about the past. Lin Yanbai was a little impressed by Gu Changrong; he was indeed a real character! Even she could see that Gu Xingfan was impatient, but Gu Changrong could still keep talking about it with a nostalgic look on his face!
However, Gu Xingfan is no pushover: "Uncle, I haven't seen you for a while, and you've become more and more eloquent in your speeches! You're worthy of being the deputy district chief!" Gu Xingfan emphasized the word "deputy", specifically hitting his sore spot!
Gu Changrong is a power-crazed person, but he has been in the position of deputy district chief for more than ten years. He has outlasted three district chiefs, but he has not been promoted himself. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to a power-crazed person!
The expression on Gu Changrong's face almost froze, and the scene fell into awkwardness for a moment. The guests around them looked at the delicate atmosphere between them and did not dare to say anything more.
Just as Lin Yanbai was about to say something to break the awkward atmosphere, a clear and melodious voice came from behind: "Xingfan is still that bad tempered. Every time he sees my dad, he's like a little firecracker, igniting at the slightest touch!"
Gu Xingyu came over supporting Grandpa Gu. His words cleverly defused the tense atmosphere, and everyone started laughing and chatting again, except for Lin Yanbai.
Gu Xingyu's words sounded insignificant at first, as if meant to lighten the atmosphere, but upon closer inspection, his words were very profound, and he simply put all the blame on Gu Xingfan.
Feeling Lin Yanbai's meaningful gaze, Gu Xingyu turned to look at her and gave her his signature smile, showing the temperament of a modest gentleman with a gentle temperament like jade.
Seeing this, Lin Yanbai countered the opponent's move and showed an even brighter and more standard smile. This guy looked much more difficult to deal with than his father. Anyway, he didn't know what to say, so he just smiled!
Seeing that Lin Yanbai behaved completely differently from other girls, Gu Xingyu's smile paused slightly. This girl looked difficult to deal with, and he suddenly had such a strong premonition.
Even if he disliked Gu Changrong, Grandpa Gu still couldn't bear to be cruel to his grandson Gu Xingyu, especially since Gu Xingyu was almost raised by him.
For the sake of his grandson's face, Grandpa Gu reluctantly drove Gu Changrong out without breaking up. As for Gu Changyue, he didn't come today at all. Gu Xingfan believed that his good aunt was most likely afraid that if she came, she would have to give her nephew a blessing gift, so she didn't come.
Lin Yanbai was speechless. There were strange things every year, but this year was especially full of them. But seeing Gu Xingfan acting perfectly normal, she felt there was bound to be more fun to come!
Grandpa Gu was so busy these past two days that he hardly slept a wink, so as soon as the guests left, Gu Xingfan told Aunt Chen to go back with Grandpa quickly so that Grandpa could have a good rest.
When only the couple were left in the courtyard, they looked at each other and began to clean up the mess reluctantly.
However, the wedding was kept simple, so there wasn't much to pack. In a short while, Gu Xingfan had finished packing.
That’s right, Gu Xingfan is the main force, and Lin Yanbai... cough... his wife is responsible for taking a general overview of the situation and cheering him on!
