Yang Tao glanced at the price tag on the bridesmaid dress next to her, and then thought about how exquisite the wedding dress was.
"Sister, do you have a misunderstanding about what 'too expensive' means?"
"Um?"
Ye Qingyan glanced up at her.
"This dress is already very expensive, okay? It cost me a year's salary!" And it's a bridesmaid dress.
Ye Qingyan peeled back the label: "A little over ten thousand, it's alright."
Yang Tao's words caught in her throat: "Sorry to bother you."
“Custom-made items always start at tens of millions, so it makes sense that Qingyan says this isn’t expensive.” Yuanyuan was amused by Yangtao.
"This is the difference between me and the rich. I'm crying."
"Alright, those few items are fine. I don't want to try them on anymore. I'm too tired." Ye Qingyan handed the card to the shop assistant directly: "Just send the clothes to the address I gave you."
“Yes, Mrs. Huo.”
"Mrs. Huo?" Yang Tao exclaimed in surprise again.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I was just thinking that all of you have already taken on the role of husband."
"They insist on doing this during Qingming Festival, saying it's fun to hear. They have so many problems." Ye Qingyan waved her hand.
"Go ahead and show off. Show off." Yuan Yuan poked her on the head.
"Let's go home." Ye Qingyan stood up after receiving the bank card from the shop assistant. "The wedding is in three days. Let's go a day early. We can have a party."
"Why bother with all this fuss when you're already married?"
"You don't understand, the last night of being single."
"Sister, have you forgotten that you've been married for almost two years?"
"I don't care, I ...."
...
When Ye Qingyan arrived home, Huo Qingming was already there.
"What are you rummaging through?" Ye Qingyan took off her shoes and walked over. "Xiaoying has thrown her toys around again?"
"No, I just remember having some blank invitations left over."
"yes."
"Where?" Huo Qingming asked, straightening up.
"Didn't you say it was untidy to put in the living room and you wanted me to put it in the study? It's that drawer you usually use."
"Oh, there it is." Huo Qingming went to the study, found a few sheets of paper, and put them in his briefcase.
"What's it for?"
Huo Qingming walked back, waved to Ye Qingyan, and the two sat down on the sofa together: "The company is pushing forward a cooperation, and this invitation is for the other party."
"If we're going to cooperate, then let's cooperate. But why does this feel like you're trying to curry favor?" Ye Qingyan said, puzzled.
"No, it's just a small business. But I admire the boss, which is why I wanted to help him out."
Ye Qingyan was surprised: "You've taken a liking to him, so he must be very outstanding?"
"His abilities are undeniable, and it's said that he started from scratch; his family was very poor and couldn't help him at all." Huo Qingming said, putting his arm around Ye Qingyan as he pondered, "At first, we all thought he was a rich kid. He has a lot of character, unlike a child raised in an ordinary family. He has a lot of integrity."
"That sounds pretty impressive."
"But I heard that he encountered quite a few setbacks a few years ago. The main problem is that some principles are a plus, but if you go too far, it means you don't know how to be flexible. After suffering losses for a few years, he seems to have learned a lot."
"I can tell you really like him." Ye Qingyan poked his chest. "If I didn't know he wasn't a woman, I would have thought you had your eye on someone else, given how much you praise him."
"Nonsense." Huo Qingming pinched her cheek. "Have you tried on the wedding dress?"
"Okay. We'll be fine once they bring it over." Ye Qingyan stood up and stretched. "Did you send Xiao Xiao and Xiao Ying to Mom and Dad?"
"It's been delivered. Mom and Dad are very happy."
"It's true that some people are happy while others are sad. I'm going to take a shower."
"Aren't you taking me with you?"
"roll!"
…………
Three days pass in the blink of an eye.
Ye Qingyan called Zhen Tian and the others over early because it was a huge hassle to get up early for hair and makeup.
And because it was held in a coastal city.
So after a day on the plane, I went straight to sleep at the hotel, and there was no singles party at all.
Ye Qingyan was still trying to throw a tantrum when she got up.
"Alright, alright, your husband isn't here either. Who do you think we are to comfort you?" Yuan Yuan poured a bucket of cold water on her, and Ye Qingyan glared at her resentfully.
"Hurry up, your husband is outside greeting the guests."
Because it was a Western-style wedding, skipping all the usual wedding processions and formalities, the couple met directly at the venue. Therefore, the wedding wasn't held very early.
Unlike Zhen Tian, who had to get up at three or four in the morning.
Guests arrived one after another. Huo Qingming's parents and Ye Qingyan's father stood at the door to greet them, while Huo Qingming greeted the business associates he had invited.
"Mr. Huo."
"You've arrived." Huo Qingming strode over.
Congratulations!
"I'm also very happy that Mr. Du could come." The two shook hands: "Please make yourself at home."
"OK."
After Huo Qingming left, this Mr. Du wandered around the venue, greeted some acquaintances, and finally walked to the huge wedding photo.
His gaze lingered on Ye Qingyan's face for a moment.
The wedding was still some time away, so Ye Qingyan and the others finished their hair and makeup quickly. Bored, she wandered aimlessly along the beach in her wedding dress.
These scenes, when viewed by someone with a discerning eye, may take on a different meaning.
"Ye Qingyan".
Ye Qingyan, who was still lamenting that she couldn't wade in the water while wearing her wedding dress, turned around when someone called her name. Her expression clearly froze, and she remained there for a long time.
The man took two steps forward: "Ye Qingyan, you still remember me, don't you?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Ye Qingyan's mind, but in the end she simply said, "Du Yu."
"I knew you'd remember." The man seemed pleased. "Long time no see."
"It's been a long time." Ye Qingyan smiled. She had cursed this man countless times in her heart, cried for him countless times, and even fantasized countless times that if she saw him, she would beat him up and ask him why he left without saying goodbye back then. But at the moment of actually seeing him, she felt that she had let go of those things long ago.
This was the only first love that caused her such heartbreak.
Her high school tutor.
Du Yu.
"You're getting married."
"Isn't it obvious?" Ye Qingyan tugged at her wedding dress. "You're here for a wedding?"
"Hmm." Du Yu took a few steps forward, walked straight up to her, and kept a distance far less than normal social distance. "After I learned that you were getting married, I thought of many ways to see you. But in the end, it was President Huo who gave me the invitation."
"You wouldn't happen to be the person he was admiring, would you?" Ye Qingyan suddenly found the whole thing rather ironic.
If it's Du Yu, then everything makes sense.
He certainly lived up to his reputation for starting from nothing and his stubbornness.
"appreciate?"
"nothing."
