After dinner, Shi Xuan took Dou Shiliu home. Next, they had to attend various important banquets. Actually, Shi Xuan didn't need to attend them, but some banquets were just a formality.
At another banquet, Yu Keke, dressed in an exquisite little dress, was arguing with someone.
It was less of an argument and more of a casual chat between friends, but Yu Keke's exaggerated expression made her look a bit comical.
She rolled her eyes without any decorum and stuck her tongue out at the people over there, but I have to say this girl is kind of endearing.
Dou Shiliu showed no disgust. Seeing that her eyes were fixed on the woman not far away, Shi Xuan glanced at Yu Keke.
"know?"
Dou Shiliu shook her head, "I don't know her, she just looks cute."
Shi Xuan laughed, his eyes falling on Dou Shiliu, who was more charming than any woman today. "Who is more obedient than you?"
Dou Shiliu chuckled: "What my husband says makes sense."
She smiled and gave Shi Xuan a flirtatious wink. A look of helplessness flashed across the man's eyes, and then he pulled her a little closer.
"Why did He Zicheng bring you here?"
Yu Keke glanced at the boy drinking in front of her with annoyance. His eyebrows and eyes were still immature, but there was a hint of maturity in his eyes.
Looking at the unusually well-behaved boy, she glanced at Yu Keke, her lips, stained red like vermilion, parted slightly, and said, "None of your business."
Like the clear sound of a flowing spring, even swear words sound incredibly elegant.
Yu Bai's eyes held a faint disdain. This woman was incredibly uncouth. He really didn't know what Uncle He had taken a liking to, that he would make her Brother He Zicheng's wife.
He Zicheng was unavailable today, so he asked his cousin to come with Yu Keke.
"I'm going to tell He Zicheng that you used foul language," Yu Keke said, a smile flashing in her eyes, but she still frowned, pretending to be about to complain.
"A childish brat from kindergarten," Yu Bai glanced indifferently at the woman embracing Shi Xuan, then pointed a finger at her. "Do you know what a woman is? She's a goddess among women, understand? Childish brat?"
His tone was full of sarcasm.
Yu Keke turned her head to look at Dou Shiliu, who was all smiles. Her eyes narrowed slightly. This girl was really pretty, but...
Yu Keke was stunned for a moment. Yu Bai looked at her bewildered, infatuated expression and felt a little embarrassed: "What are you doing?"
He frowned and gave her a nudge. "Don't keep staring at people!"
This banquet is not for ordinary people; those who can enter are all extraordinary. He Zicheng instructed him to be courteous in every action and not to disgrace the He family.
"I know that girl!"
Yu Keke ignored Yu Bai beside her and went straight over; she wanted to greet the fairy sister.
Yu Bai: "..."
This woman... really is...
Seeing that Yu Keke actually went to greet him, Yu Bai couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. This troublesome girl, afraid that something might happen to Yu Keke, he gradually followed her.
"Hello, Miss," Yu Keke said with a smile as she approached Dou Shiliu, "Do you remember me? The little girl who praised you for being pretty at the auction that day~"
"Hello," Dou Shiliu said with a faint smile. This female lead is really quite outgoing.
Yu Bai, who followed closely behind, thought that Yu Keke really knew the beautiful woman. Unexpectedly, it was Yu Keke who shamelessly praised her, which meant that the woman did not know her at all, and it was Yu Keke who shamelessly approached her.
Yu-Bai: How do you escape underground? How can this woman be so shameless?
He hurried over and hesitantly said, "Young Master Shi, I've long admired your name."
Shi Xuan glanced at the boy, not recognizing him, but still nodded politely, "Hello."
"My sister-in-law caused you trouble, I'm sorry."
Yu Bai apologized calmly, then took Yu Keke's hand, "Let's talk next time. Brother He Zicheng just asked us to pick something up."
Upon hearing He Zicheng's name, Yu Keke snapped out of her reverie and stopped pestering Dou Shiliu with questions.
"Hey beautiful lady, can I add you on WeChat? Let's grab dinner sometime!"
Yu Bai's movements quickened, and Yu Keke didn't even see Dou Shiliu respond.
Yu Bai pulled her away quickly.
The funny female lead, Dou Shiliu, smiled. She felt something warm on her hand and looked up.
Shi Xuan lowered his eyes and looked at the woman, "Do you really like that young lady?"
Dou Shiliu was stunned. "No, I just think she's cute," he said, adding that she was a bit more clumsy and awkward than the previous female leads.
"Heh, I'll be jealous," Shi Xuan whispered in her ear, raising his hand to twirl a stray strand of her hair.
A slight tickle ran down Dou Shiliu's cheek, and she chuckled softly, "What's there to be jealous about?"
Shi Xuan lowered his brows, thinking to himself that none of the women around him had ever been kind to others. "You glanced at her several times."
No one's eyes are on him anymore.
Shi Xuan was caught off guard and suddenly adopted a slightly coquettish tone.
Okay, I won't look at her anymore.
Dou Shiliu's eyes curved like crescent moons, and Shi Xuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He kissed her fair face.
Many people at the banquet witnessed how affectionate President Shi and his wife were.
...
Much later, Jiang Yang finally had the courage to see Dou Shiliu. It was at their wedding. Yan Jun and Shao Yi also came, bringing several houses and cars as gifts, and then gave a large red envelope containing a card.
Bai Xiaoyi and Ye Xiaye also got married, tying the knot two months before Dou Shiliu and Ye Xiaye. They even sent Dou Shiliu an invitation, but she didn't read it and forgot about it.
Bai Xiaoyi wasn't angry, after all, she had already achieved her goal and wouldn't hold a grudge against Bai Juhan.
Yu Rou and Si Li brought their baby to give her their blessings. The project that Si Li and Shi Xuan were working on together is now very stable and they have made a lot of money.
Dou Shiliu looks beautiful today. Her striking face is adorned with light, delicate makeup, her eyes are styled with elongated corners, making her appear less childish. Her lips are a vibrant red, and her traditional bright red wedding dress makes her look exceptionally beautiful.
"This woman is so lucky; she actually married Shi Xuan!"
"Shi Xuan's family fortune is countless, enough for her to live on for several lifetimes."
"This woman is beautiful too. You really have to be beautiful to be considered attractive."
"The tea used at this banquet is the finest Hongzi Jiao, and the wine is also quite expensive. It's clear how much Shi Xuan values this wedding."
The guests whispered among themselves as they watched the newlyweds, dressed in bright red, make vows of loyalty to each other on the stage.
"Are you willing to marry Mr. Shi Xuan and grow old together?" The emcee asked with a smile, looking at the exceptionally good-looking newlyweds.
"willing"
"Alright, please exchange rings."
Under the flickering lights, Dou Shiliu tiptoed and took the initiative to kiss those cool, thin lips...
May it last a long, long time.
