The hotel was crowded and chaotic, and since she was dressed reasonably well, no one noticed her.
Zhu Kexin observed the bride and groom from a distance for a while and then pinpointed their location.
However, before she even got close, someone grabbed her arm and pulled her away.
Once they reached a secluded spot, Erwa shook off his mother's arm, his face serious.
What brings you here?
Zhu Kexin was overjoyed when she recognized her youngest son.
"Yanxun, Mom is so happy to see you. By the way, isn't your brother getting married today? Mom just wanted to come and see him and your sister-in-law."
"It's my brother's big day today, can you please not upset him?" Erwa said, looking annoyed.
Zhu Kexin quickly explained, "I'm not doing anything. I just want to see them from afar. Yan Xun, you can believe me."
Erwa sighed and led her to a place.
"Don't move around here. I'm going to go and call my brother and sister-in-law out to talk. You can take a quick look from a distance and then leave quickly."
Zhu Kexin nodded repeatedly.
Besides that, Erwa couldn't think of a better solution for the time being.
He didn't want to go to his parents now and cause them trouble, nor did he want his brother to know and affect his mood.
After Erwa walked away, he quickly called out to his older brother and sister-in-law, who were unaware of what was going on.
Zhu Kexin gazed at her increasingly handsome eldest son and his new wife from afar, her eyes filled with longing.
Erwa simply made up an excuse to call his older brother and sister-in-law out to talk, and they finished talking quickly.
He only came over after Da Wa Ji Rou left.
"See that? You'd better get out of here."
Zhu Kexin was somewhat heartbroken. "Yan Xun, after all these years, are you and your brother still unwilling to forgive Mom?"
Erwa was extremely annoyed. "Can we please not bring up what happened back then? Do you have to involve my dad and mom?"
When Li Huai and Zhao Qinglan were mentioned, Zhu Kexin became a little scared. She only told Erwa to take care of himself before turning and leaving.
Erwa wiped his face, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Wang Lingling, who still hadn't had time to recover her shocked expression, and felt inexplicably displeased.
Wang Lingling had finally come with her father, and she couldn't bear not seeing Erwa. So, she finally found an opportunity to see Erwa, but she ended up seeing something she shouldn't have.
"What are you doing here?" Erwa's tone wasn't particularly friendly either, as he was in a bad mood.
Wang Lingling bit her lip. "Brother Yanxun, I came with my dad. I'm sorry, I didn't expect this."
"Alright, it's none of your business." With that, Erwa got up and left.
Even if Erwa continued to avoid her, it wouldn't hurt her as much as this coldness and irritability.
She suddenly began to doubt whether she should have come at all.
When she got back, Wang Jianshe became anxious upon seeing his daughter. "Where did you run off to? This isn't Haishi. What if you got lost?"
"Dad, I'm all grown up now, can you please stop worrying about me?" Wang Lingling sat down, feeling wronged.
Wang Jianshe felt embarrassed after being outmaneuvered by his daughter, as he realized he was being laughed at by his classmates, including Lan Xin. "Kids get harder to manage when they're older," he said with an awkward laugh.
Erwa's emotions were somewhat affected, and even though he tried to hide it after returning home, his sensitive and intelligent younger brother Sanwa still noticed.
When the wedding banquet finally ended and the guests gradually left, Sanwa tugged at Erwa.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine." Erwa didn't want to mention his birth mother to his younger brother.
Sanwa raised an eyebrow. The more his silly second brother said everything was fine, the more worried he became.
Xiao Duo finally had time to come to Zhou Yunting's side.
"I've been too busy before, but now I finally have time to talk to you."
Zhou Yunting smiled. "Actually, you don't need to worry about me."
Over there, Zhao Qingju nudged her sister, and when Zhao Qinglan turned around, she pointed towards Xiaoduo.
"Sis, could that young man really be Xiaoduo's boyfriend?"
"I don't know either, I'll ask her later."
Xiao Duo told Zhou Yunting that she would take him to visit various places in the provincial capital when she was completely free the next day, and then they returned.
As soon as she returned, she was met with a teasing look from an elder.
"Xiaoduo, what's your relationship with that young man?" Madam Sun asked first.
If it really doesn't matter, Xiaoduo will frankly say no.
Being stared at by so many people, she blushed before explaining, "A very good friend."
"Oh, you two have a very good relationship," Zhao Qingju said meaningfully.
"Auntie!" Xiaoduo said, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.
Everyone laughed, and Xiaoduo's face turned even redder.
Da Wa and Ji Rou finally returned home and entered their new house. Their friends also went to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber.
The elders, including Zhao Qinglan, naturally didn't get involved and all sat on her side to continue talking.
However, those who were too old to keep up, like Grandpa Dou, went back to their rooms to rest.
Knowing her daughter was shy, Zhao Qinglan didn't press her for details in front of the relatives. She waited until everyone had left and it was just the two of them before asking in a low voice.
"Xiaoduo, tell Mom, is Zhou Yunting really just an ordinary friend of yours?"
Looking into her mother's eyes, Xiaoduo dared not lie.
She lowered her head and twisted her fingers, saying, "He's pursuing me, but I haven't said yes yet."
Sure enough, I realized it wasn't simple.
"And what about you? What do you think?"
"Mom, he's different from Han Yi. He's never had a girlfriend before. I think he's a good guy."
"Oh, nothing's happened yet, and you're already speaking well of them."
"Mom," Xiaoduo said, her voice a little louder.
Zhao Qinglan smiled broadly. "Alright, alright, since you think he's not bad, then bring him home. He's come all this way, he's a guest too."
"I know, Mom."
So, the next day, Xiao Duo went to the hotel to find Zhou Yunting and asked him to come to her home as a guest. Zhou Yunting immediately became nervous.
"I... do I need to prepare anything? Oh, right, I brought gifts for you and your family."
Xiao Duo's ears turned red. They weren't even in a relationship yet, and she had already brought so many gifts. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was bringing her boyfriend home.
Da Wa and his wife spent an unforgettable wedding night. When they got up in the morning and ate breakfast with their family, they noticed that their younger sister was missing, which they found strange.
Where did Xiaoduo go?
"My sister went to the hotel to meet her friend," Erwa answered quickly. After a night, especially with his brother's thoughtful comfort, he had fully recovered.
"Sigh, my sister is going to be taken away too." Sanwa sighed.
The eldest child was shocked upon hearing this. What had happened without his knowledge?
When his mother explained that another guy who was pursuing his sister had attended his wedding, the eldest son raised his eyebrows.
To be honest, Li Huai, as a father, wasn't entirely happy either.
When Xiao Duo and Zhou Yunting arrived with a pile of gifts, Zhou Yunting felt several sharp eyes scrutinizing him.
Fortunately, he had already prepared himself mentally, and greeted everyone with a smile.
