Chapter 611 Tonight's wedding banquet was a bit dull
After serving tea to both sets of parents and completing a major part of the wedding process, Luo Baozhi changed into a cheongsam in the private room next door. When she returned to the banquet hall, the first thing she looked at was Li Youyou at table 3.
However, Luo Baozhi, who should have seen the other party sitting there stiffly, actually discovered that the man next to the other party was chatting happily with another person, and Li Youyou was also echoing them with a smile on her face.
This was totally different from what she had expected. After returning to seat number one, Luo Baozhi couldn't help but ask her husband, "Who is that person?"
"who?"
Hearing his wife's question, Du Yixia, who had just eaten a few bites of hot food to fill his empty stomach and drank some wine, reacted a little slowly and asked with some confusion.
Although the hotel has humanely prepared bottles of alcohol filled with mineral water, inexperienced people don't know the ins and outs of it, but when facing some important people, the groom still needs to drink real alcohol.
Just now, the old leader at the same table said a few words to him, and Du Yixia clinked glasses with him twice, drinking authentic Wuliangye with full sincerity.
"The one next door to Li Youyou."
"Director Tong?!!! Why is he sitting at that table? I clearly arranged for him to sit at the main table."
Du Yixia said in surprise when he saw the young man chatting happily with his ex-girlfriend's current girlfriend.
That was his old predecessor, the personal secretary of Wuzhou No. 2 and the actual deputy director of the municipal government office. He, the newly appointed secretary of Wuzhou No. 3, could only be regarded as a younger brother in front of him.
What's more, the other party now represents Wuzhou No. 2 behind the scenes. Du Yixia had previously arranged the other party to sit at the main table, next to the new father-in-law - the former former former former Wuzhou No. 1.
As a result, the other party actually sat at table number three and seemed to be very familiar with Li Youyou's current boyfriend.
What is going on?
Du Yixia, who had drunk a little wine, thought a little slowly.
"He is the secretary of Magistrate Zhou?"
"Um."
After hearing what her husband said, Luo Baozhi was even more surprised, but there was a little more understanding in her eyes.
Humph, why do you pretend to be so noble all the time? In the end, you still found a rich and powerful man.
Women, they are all the same.
However, Luo Baozhi did not express his inner complaints on the spot.
Today is her big day, there is no need to lose her dignity over such a small matter. Among the guests present are many well-known figures in Wuzhou, and her husband may need them in the future.
This is good too. This time, her husband should give up completely.
"Wait a moment, the bride and groom are about to start toasting, please don't leave in a hurry. In the interactive game we will be playing, there are many gifts to be given away, and there is also a grand prize provided by the newlyweds tonight, a doll that is more than one meter tall, and ten latest Nokia mobile phones."
When the two newlyweds were about to start toasting, the host, who had hurriedly eaten some bread he brought with him, came on stage to warm up the atmosphere, to avoid the situation where most people would leave before the bride and groom had finished their toast.
Listening to the host talking about the grand prize, Zhou Anan couldn't help but feel a little more emotional.
The latest Nokia mobile phone costs at least three or four thousand yuan each, and ten of them would cost thirty or forty thousand yuan. That would require a lot of money at home.
Judging from this momentum, it is worthy of being a symbol of the bride's family's wealth, and the groom's vision is not in vain.
"Be polite when you toast later."
After toasting the guests at table 2, Du Yixia, with a slightly red face, worriedly instructed his wife beside him.
The people at Table No. 2 were all big shots that he needed to pay attention to. Even though some of them came as couples, he toasted them one by one and drank quite a bit of wine.
Fortunately, he usually follows his leader and has improved his drinking capacity, so he can hold on.
"Don't worry, I won't ruin my husband's career in this kind of situation."
Knowing the hidden meaning in her husband's words, Luo Baozhi took his arm and spoke softly and appropriately.
After all, Li Youyou, whom she had occasionally envied, also bowed to society. There was no need for her, Luo Baozhi, to take him to heart, and there was no need to pay attention to such an opponent who no longer posed a threat.
Besides, even if she found a rich boyfriend, her husband had already taken an important step in his career.
In the future, they will be people from two different worlds with no intersection.
"Director Tong, thank you for coming."
"Brother Tong, my family still needs your advice on a daily basis."
Arriving at table No. 3, Du Yixia and his wife first toasted the most important secretary, Tong, with the most sincere smiles on their faces.
"You're welcome. I wish you a happy marriage."
It can be seen that Zhou Anan is not very familiar with the other party, and Tong Ziqian is just treating the other party as an ordinary colleague, with a smile on his face and a slightly flat tone.
"Thanks."
Du Yixia drank the small cup of genuine Wuliangye in one breath and expressed her gratitude with a red face.
The fact that the other party can come is to give face to him and to his mother-in-law's family.
Although he is now the face of Wuzhou No. 3, the gap between him and Wuzhou No. 2 who is in charge of a government is still obvious.
After seeing Secretary Tong show up, the big guys at tables 2 and 3 became much more enthusiastic towards him.
A man's face should be like this.
"Mr. Zhou, Youyou, thank you for coming."
After toasting Secretary Tong, Du Yixia did not take the water Wuliangye handed to him by his wife. Instead, he took the real Wuliangye from the bridesmaid next to him, poured a full cup, and said to his ex-girlfriend and two girlfriends with a smile.
Although he achieved success in his career, he gave up a relationship that lasted for more than four years, but he did not have too many regrets.
He is an ordinary college student from a remote small county. If he wants to survive better in a big city, he has to work many times harder than ordinary people, and still get no results.
In this slightly confused situation, Luo Baozhi appeared before him, illuminating his originally ordinary life and giving him the opportunity to surpass his peers.
Sure enough, with the help of his wife's family, he has already stood at a high starting point that ordinary people may not be able to reach in their lifetime, and his future is even brighter.
Even if God gave him another chance to choose, Du Yixia would still make the same choice.
Career is a man’s most important companion.
The only thing I regret is that after four years of dating, I still haven't truly possessed each other.
Li Youyou is so beautiful tonight, she is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman he has ever seen.
Du Yixia couldn't help feeling unhappy because he had never truly possessed the other person and was likely to be overtaken by someone else.
Once upon a time, he had thought about relying on the help of his wife's family, and after successfully taking charge of a region, he would come back and renew his past relationship with Li Youyou.
Now it seems that it was just his wishful thinking. Women are hypocritical.
"Happy wedding."
Li Youyou chose the most ordinary blessing and drank a glass of white wine. She covered her mouth and held back a cough, without much emotion in her heart.
This cup is for the past, to commemorate the love in the past.
"Eat and drink well."
After her husband finished drinking, Luo Baozhi suppressed her inner unhappiness and said to the two of them with a forced smile.
You have to be patient in a situation with so many people around.
If there is anything, just deal with it privately. After all, her husband is now a man of status and position. Otherwise, it would be her face that would be lost, the reputation of their Luo family in Wuzhou.
Looking at the bride who endured her anger and acted as if nothing had happened, Zhou Anan, who was there to help out, gave her dozens of thumbs up in her heart.
Originally Zhou Anan thought that the bride would ridicule his confidante endlessly, and he would help his confidante to get back on her feet. However, the bride tonight was not as sharp-tongued as the first one he encountered.
Apart from a few witty remarks before the wedding banquet, the bride's overall performance was very generous and decent. It seems that she does have some IQ and EQ.
There don’t seem to be many of those brainless rich girls in TV dramas in real life, and Zhou Anan has not met many of them.
But tonight's wedding banquet was a bit dull.
"Let's have tea together sometime."
When Du Yisha and his wife had toasted for most of the banquet, Tong Ziqian, who had just eaten half his fill, was ready to leave. He had to go back and prepare for his leader's schedule for tomorrow.
This is the bad thing about following a big boss. You can't eat too much as you please, for fear of being suddenly called away and affecting the boss's image.
"OK."
There would naturally be no attempt to keep anyone in such an occasion. Since everyone was so familiar with each other, Zhou Anan was prepared to wait for the bride and groom to finish their toast before leaving with her confidante.
"Now we'd like to invite a kid to pick out the first grand prize winner of tonight, 306."
