That night, Jiang Xiaoli was so sleepy that her eyelids kept drooping. Zong Jiayu persuaded her, "Xiaoli, go to sleep. I'll call them later. There won't be any problems."
She yawned and waved her hand, "It's okay, it won't be long."
She held out until 12:30 a.m. and then called Jiang Chengle, "Brother Le, is everyone here?"
It's 7:30 a.m. in China right now, and there are less than 3 hours left before the charter flight to bring relatives and friends to Great Britain takes off.
It was noisy on Jiang Chengle's end, so he raised his voice, "Everyone's here, everyone's here! Dafu and I are checking in luggage with some people right now, so we'll have to go now! See you later!"
Jiang Xiaoli pouted as she listened to the dial tone, "Brother Le hung up on me."
Zong Jiayu hugged her and said, "They must be very busy checking in their luggage. If you want to know the situation, you should call Ren Zhiyi and the others to ask."
"That's right!"
She realized what was happening and called Ren Zhiyi, "Zhiyi, have you checked your luggage?"
Tan Xuanyi's voice came through the phone, "Hey Xiaoli, Professor Ran practically dragged me here. If anything happens to me, you'll have to take responsibility!"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "Don't worry! I've bought insurance for you."
Tan Xuanyi was speechless. "Fine, I'll give up."
The familiar beeping sound came again.
"Hey—this old man probably thinks I called him, doesn't he?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ren Zhiyi's name flashed on the phone. "Xiao Li, Professor Tan just heard it was you on the phone and snatched my phone away."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "It's alright, but Professor Tan is a little afraid of flying. You guys should be extra careful after you board the plane."
"Don't worry, I know, Brother Le has arranged everything," Ren Zhiyi replied.
Yan Chengcheng's voice suddenly came through the phone, "Xiao Li, there's a surprise!"
"A surprise?" she asked, a little curious. "Give me a hint, in what way?"
Ren Zhiyi said with a smile, "I can't reveal that. You'll guess as soon as I tell you."
"Alright, alright, see you later then."
See you later!
Zong Jiayu smiled and said, "Are you relieved now? Go to sleep early."
No one responded.
Upon closer inspection, he saw that the person next to him had tossed their phone aside and instantly fallen asleep.
Zong Jia chuckled softly, pulled the blanket up for her, and hugged her as they fell asleep.
On the morning of October 16, they traveled by car to Birmingham.
On the way, Li Guizhi asked, "What time will the plane land?"
Zong Jiayu said, "Around 2 p.m.
Jiang Xiaoli yawned, "Mom, it will take us more than two hours to get to Birmingham. Once we get there, you and Uncle Xiao and Auntie can go directly to the manor, and Ayu and I can go to the airport."
Li Guizhi nodded, "Okay, your aunt and uncle are taking care of the Jiang family at home, so they won't be able to get over until tomorrow or the day after at the earliest. We'll take care of things here."
She nodded. "Don't worry, Auntie said she's arranged enough staff. Just ask Baizhi if you need anything."
Xiao Jincheng was tempted again. He discussed with Xu Feng, "Feng'er, let's go back and find a reliable person to study at that housekeeping school that Miss Bai mentioned last time for a few years. Our lives will be much easier then. They'll arrange everything perfectly. What do you think?"
Xu Feng thought for a moment and didn't refuse directly, but said, "Where are we going to find a reliable person willing to be a housekeeper?"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled slightly, "Uncle Xiao, if there isn't a suitable person, it would be more convenient for you and Auntie to go directly to the housekeeping academy to choose one."
Xiao Jincheng nodded, "Okay, we'll talk about it after your wedding. We still have important things to do!"
She nodded. "Don't worry, I remember everything!"
Xu Feng didn't understand. "What kind of riddles are you two playing?"
Xiao Jincheng chuckled, "As for the leasing of the 'Jinghua Center,' Xiaoli and I are planning something big!"
Xu Feng frowned. "Old Xiao, why can't you make money at any time? Why do you have to cause trouble at Xiao Li's wedding?"
Jiang Xiaoli quickly smoothed things over, "Auntie, please don't talk about Uncle Xiao. This is something we discussed and agreed upon. Businessmen can always make money wherever they go, it's fine."
"Are you really alright?"
"It's really nothing!"
"Alright then." However, Xu Feng still emphasized, "But you're not allowed to do anything that conflicts with Xiao Li's wedding, understand?"
Xiao Jincheng quickly assured him, "I know, I know. How could I not care about Xiaoli's wedding? Don't worry."
Jiang Xiaoli leaned against Zong Jiayu to catch up on her sleep. When she woke up, only the two of them were left in the car.
"Huh? Where are my mom and the others?"
Zong Jia tidied her messy hair, "Another car picked them up and took them to the manor. Don't worry, someone is with them."
She stretched and nodded. "What time is it?"
Zong Jia stretched out his arm and held his watch in front of her eyes. "It's 1:30. The plane will be arriving soon."
Jiang Xiaoli sat up straight. "Let's go, let's go out and get some exercise."
The two of them, along with Cao Jie and Wan Qiong who were following Zong Jia, strolled leisurely to the VIP passage.
After the staff served them a few cups of coffee, they were told that the chartered plane would arrive in 13 minutes.
Before she finished her coffee, Jiang Xiaoli's phone rang. It was Jiang Chengle.
"Little Pear! We've arrived, where are you?"
She replied, "The VIP passage. You'll see me as soon as you come out."
Because we had communicated in advance, the customs opened a separate clearance channel for us, and our luggage was delivered to the manor by the staff.
Half an hour later, Jiang Xiaoli saw the "surprise" that Yan Chengcheng had mentioned in the early morning.
She rushed up to him, beaming with joy, and asked, "Xin Xin! Brother Yuan! What brings you here?"
Hu Jingxin pointed to her mother behind her, "It was my mother's suggestion. She said that A Yuan and I would definitely regret not attending your wedding. If you mind my dad... I'll come with my mom for a couple of days and then go back."
She waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "I don't mind, I don't mind. I was just worried that it would be inconvenient for you and your aunt to follow certain customs."
Mrs. Hu stepped forward with a smile and said, "Xiao Li, Xin Xin and I are now relying on each other for survival, so there's nothing special about it. Your wedding will be the main event."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and nodded, "Okay! Thank you, Auntie. I'm really happy that you, Xin Xin, and Brother Yuan could come."
While they were talking, Jiang Chengle had already organized everyone to leave. "Little Pear, is the car ready?"
"You guys talk, I'll go talk."
Zong Jia walked over to Jiang Chengle and helped him coordinate the traffic issues.
Jiang Xiaoli looked at Tan Xuanyi and Ran Hui, who were standing behind them, and asked, "Professor Tan, are you alright? How was your first time flying?"
Tan Xuanyi pursed his lips, "It's just so-so."
Ran Hui chuckled and said, "Xiao Li, don't listen to this old man's nonsense. He's just saying one thing and meaning another! Lying in that first-class seat, he kept telling me that he wanted to buy a sofa like that when he got home!"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "That's easy, I'll give you one when we get back!"
