"Jia! Waaah!" The person who opened the door was clearly Hai Mingyue, who had long been lovesick. When Li Jia's familiar face appeared before her, for a full sixty seconds, her mind went blank. The feeling that time seemed to stand still was completely shattered after Li Feng's brief words, "I'm back!" Through her blurry tears, Hai Mingyue threw herself into Li Jia's arms. From soft sobs to loud cries, the overwhelming joy allowed Hai Mingyue to release her emotions in Li Feng's arms for over half an hour!
"Brother Li, you...you're back...Sister Mingyue. Please come upstairs. I'll close the door!" The timid voice made Li Jia look up and see Zhou Xiaoyu standing on the stairs. The little girl he hadn't seen for many days had now grown into a graceful and poised young woman!
"Xiaoyu, come here, let Brother Li give you a hug. You've had a hard time while I was away!" Li Jia smiled, opening his arms to hug Zhou Xiaoyu, noticing her reddened eyes, and extended a gentle invitation. "Brother Li, you're so naughty! But... just this once!" Zhou Xiaoyu blushed after hearing Li Jia's words, and then blurted out a sentence that surprised Hai Mingyue and Li Jia, who then laughed happily. This little rascal, she's quite good at lightening the mood!
This night was destined to be a sleepless one. Before the daytime, Passat rushed to the mall to buy a cell phone, then notified everyone of his return. Finally, at lunchtime, Li Jia drove Hai Mingyue, Li Xiaoqing, Li Xiaotong, and Hu Xiaojun to Deyuelou Restaurant.
"Xiaoqing, Xiaojun, your big brother is back now, and it's about time you two got married. You can discuss the details yourselves. If you need anything, just tell your big brother." After a few rounds of drinks and several dishes, Li Jia brought up Xiaoqing's marriage.
"Okay. I understand. Big brother, we're just waiting for you to come back so we can set a date. I've been waiting forever!" Hu Xiaojun was thrilled after hearing Li Jia's words. Clearly, the daunting task of winning the heart of his beloved had been weighing him down. With his parents' urging and Li Xiaoqing's insistence, they had finally reached this day.
"Xiaoqing, what about you? Do you have any thoughts?" Li Jia nodded as she looked at Hu Xiaojun's happy expression, while Li Xiaoqing looked shyly at the dishes on the table and ate in silence.
"Big brother, you can make the decision." The barely audible voice made Hu Xiaojun, who was sitting anxiously next to him, jump up and start spinning Li Xiaoqing around the private room. The others in the room watched the two of them immersed in happiness with excitement and raised their glasses in unison.
"My sister is getting married on October 2nd, National Day!" Sitting in front of the computer, Li Jia edited a message and sent it to a group. Only after doing this did Li Jia relax. She sat at her computer desk, drinking coffee and squinting her eyes in deep thought.
Li Xiaoqing's marriage was originally a good thing, but for Li Jia, it also meant that her younger sister was leaving home. As the head of the family, Li Jia could not hide her reluctance.
For the past two months, Li Jia has been busy assisting Hu Xiaojun with buying and decorating a house, as well as communicating, chatting, discussing, and planning the wedding with Hu Xiaojun's parents. Fortunately, the two elderly people are very understanding and simply handed over the matter to Li Jia to handle. The old couple happily walk their birds, play chess, and dance the Yangko every day, waiting for their daughter-in-law to be brought into their home.
"Brother, which of these photos do you think looks best?" Wedding photos are an essential part of any wedding. Li Xiaoqing and Hu Xiaojun's preparations are nearing completion. Apart from selecting the photos for the wedding and handing them over to the wedding planning company, all that's left is to wait for the day to come and walk into that sacred hall!
"Here are a few photos. Oh, and remember to prepare several outfits for the wedding. Wear a white wedding dress for the ceremony, and change into one for the reception. Also, this wedding will be a cocktail party, so you might need to prepare some things." Li Jia was already a little dizzy from all the work. Originally, Li Jia wanted a traditional Chinese wedding, but her sisters Li Xiaoqing and Li Xiaotong severely criticized her for it. "What era are we living in? Why are you still so concerned about these things?" In the end, Li Jia simply followed Li Xiaoqing's suggestion and communicated with the wedding planning company to finalize the wedding plan.
The hectic days are finally over. Tomorrow is my younger sister's wedding day, and the wedding venue is the Green Shirt Hotel, for reasons that are self-evident.
Starting at 9:00 AM on October 2nd, the wedding company staff at the hotel were already busy. In the Green Shirt Hotel's parking lot, wedding cars gradually began to enter. "Screech!" A piercing screech echoed as a red Hummer sped into the parking lot entrance. Moments later, a woman in a red dress gracefully walked towards the hotel entrance. "Guest autographs."
"Yan Ruyu! Here, this is a red envelope for Xiao Qingdi!" The woman in red said, taking off her oversized sunglasses, holding a pen in her fair hand, and writing her name in a flowing, elegant handwriting, along with the thick red envelope!
At the designated area for signing in and giving out red envelopes, sat Li Yan and his girlfriend, the young couple undertaking the arduous task of collecting the red envelopes. Meanwhile, the wedding company's ushers were guiding the wedding guests to the wedding banquet venue.
