Chapter 557: A moment of fear



In addition, the way everyone looked at Su Qingyun changed again. Not only did the big leader come to her wedding in person, but he also went on stage to give such a speech. His words were full of optimism and respect for her. It went without saying that this girl had a promising future, and perhaps she would rise to the top just like her name.

We are all smart people. After thinking about this, we have more considerations in our minds about the Qin family, the Ji family, and the Su family.

After all the ceremonies were over, the food began to be served.

Yu Wan clapped her hands gently, "Serve the food."

The waiters who had been prepared to bring the dishes came in one after another quickly. As each dish was served, the name of the dish was announced loudly.

“This is the dragon and phoenix flapping their wings and flying high into the sky (original stewed chicken wings)”

“This is the eternal union of a couple (Curry Red Bean Paste Pastry)”

“This is the auspicious family feast of Ruiguo Chengxiang (seasonal fresh fruits)”

"This is the long-lasting friendship between the dragon and the blue waves (traditional steamed grouper)"

"This is the Mandarin Duck Jade Gold Belt (Steamed Lobster with Garlic Sauce)"

“…”

Each dish was exquisitely presented and had a nice and resounding name. These were all ideas that Yuwan had racked her brains to come up with. Since Yashe started accepting banquet contract reservations, it was necessary to build a good reputation, and this wedding banquet was the best opportunity.

Yuwan knew that the guests present were basically all well-known figures in the capital. As long as they were satisfied, Yashe would have no worries about becoming famous or having no guests.

"This store has quite a lot of variety, and the name is quite fresh."

"That's right, he speaks in a very coherent way, and it sounds really pleasant to the ear."

"That's great. Next time we have a happy event, we'll hold it here too."

Yuwan heard the guests' discussions and smiled with satisfaction. She knew that Yashe had done a great job today.

After the banquet was over and Su Qingyun personally saw the guests off, she went to Yuwan to express her gratitude.

"Aunt Yu, I'm very satisfied with today's wedding banquet. You really took some trouble." She said sincerely.

Yu Wan smiled brightly, "Helping you is actually helping myself. It's the best of both worlds, so why not do it?"

"You're right," Su Qingyun also smiled, "Please give me the bill and I'll pay it."

"Pay the bill?" Yu Wan was surprised for a second, then covered her mouth and smiled, "Qingyun, your uncle has already paid for all the expenses, so you don't need to pay anymore."

"What?" Su Qingyun immediately turned to look at her uncle and said angrily, "Uncle, what are you doing? How can I let you pay for my wedding banquet?"

"What's this little money?" Qin Xun waved his hand nonchalantly. "Let's go."

Yuwan couldn't help laughing.

"My uncle is like this. He is always very generous when spending money on us." Su Qingyun felt helpless. "It seems that I still need to find an aunt to take care of him, otherwise no matter how much money he has, he will squander it all."

Aunt? Yu Wan's smile faded slightly. Did Mr. Qin really want to get married?

"It's not that bad. It's mainly because my grandma is a little worried that my uncle is still not married at this age."

When Yuwan heard Su Qingyun's words, she realized that she had asked what was in her heart.

She listened to Su Qingyun continue.

"Grandma seemed to have said a few days ago that she introduced a university teacher to my uncle. He has a gentle personality and is very kind. I wonder if they can find common ground?" Su Qingyun said casually while working, and then observed Yuwan's expression.

After noticing that she was a little distracted, Su Qingyun smiled secretly and did not continue talking. For some things, hints can only be given here.

"Then Aunt Yu, we'll leave first."

"Oh... okay."

Yuwan watched them leave, sat back in her chair, dazed, not knowing what she was thinking.

————————

The news of this lively and grand wedding banquet soon spread throughout the capital. When people mentioned it, the adults sighed and the young people envied them. Especially after knowing that the big leader was also present, many people gasped, shocked and scared, and frantically tried to recall whether they had offended the Qin and Ji families in any way.

A wedding banquet caused quite a stir.

On the other side, Ji Xiu also returned home depressed. The Ji family was such a jerk that they took him directly to the police station and didn't let him go until dark.

As soon as he entered the house, his wife Hu Ping looked at him nervously.

"I'm asking you, did you go to the Ji family's wedding banquet today?" Hu Ping asked him sternly.

"No!" Ji Xiu said impatiently.

"Then what did you do?" Hu Ping didn't believe it and asked.

"I'm in a bad mood. Can't I go for a walk?"

"You really didn't go?" Hu Ping asked suspiciously.

"Really!" Ji Xiuli said confidently. He didn't go in in the first place.

"That's good." Hu Ping breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest, still feeling a lingering fear. "I waited for you at home all day, afraid you'd run to the wedding banquet and cause a scene. Luckily you didn't go, otherwise we'd be done for."

"What's unfinished? Is it really that serious?" Ji Xiu scoffed, "Look at how timid you are."

"Timid?" Hu Ping glared at him. "No one going to the wedding banquet today is brave enough."

"You went out today, you didn't know?"

"What do you mean?" Ji Xiu noticed something was wrong and asked hurriedly, "Did something happen at the wedding banquet?" His tone was a little excited, with a sense of gloating, as if it would be great if something happened.

"What could possibly happen?" Hu Ping was speechless. "A high-ranking official was at the scene."

"What big leader?" Ji Xiu didn't react.

"What big leader are you talking about?" Hu Ping said unhappily. She pointed to the sky and said, "Of course, the big leader at the top of the sky."

"What?!" Ji Xiu jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on. "Are you saying that the big boss personally attended the Ji family's wedding banquet today?"

"Yeah, that's why I said you're lucky you didn't go and make a scene, otherwise our family would be ruined." Hu Ping looked at him and frowned. "Why are you making such a fuss? It's good that you didn't go. I was just afraid that you might go."

Ji Xiu's whole body stiffened and he sat down blankly. He could no longer hear anything she said. Only waves of fear surged in his heart.

He understood, he finally understood.

Why would there be people from the National Security Bureau at a simple wedding banquet? They are the ones who protect the big leaders!

Ji Xiu couldn't even imagine what would happen if he barged into the wedding banquet today. What kind of consequences would there be? Forget about his ambitions to move up, even keeping his current position was a question.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder.

After Ji Xiu felt scared, he felt relieved. Fortunately, fortunately, he couldn't get in.
