Chapter 680: A Story Within a Story Wedding Invitation
The wind blows the pages of the book and messes up my mood.
The gloomy man in front of the window looked at the pencil-shaped photo for a while, then put it back into the book and hid it.
After the Zhong family handled the case of wrongful arrest, the Zhong couple moved to the garden house the next day.
Considering the safety of his biological son, Zhong Bang did not announce the family affairs to the public. He was also afraid that Zhong Jiasheng would move into the house and there would be traces of Zhong Xu's life everywhere, so he directly hired someone to renovate the Zhong family house.
Because we had to complete the installation before August 1st, we hired double the number of renovation workers to work 24 hours a day.
The series of non-stop private operations made Zhong Xu so angry that he couldn't sleep for several days.
Taking advantage of the good weather on this day, I called a few friends to go out on a yacht to relax and have fun.
Three or five people each called their friends in the same circle, and it suddenly became a lively party with more than a dozen people.
Sea fishing, barbecues and champagne are endless.
We played for a whole day.
Zhong Xu was feeling depressed but couldn't reveal his shortcomings to anyone, so he could only hang out in crowded places to temporarily forget the upheaval in his life.
However, if the problem exists, it must be faced; avoiding it will not help.
When the sun set and the yacht had just stopped at the dock, the yacht manager hurried over to check on the yacht.
I was relieved to see no external damage.
Mrs. Zhong had warned a few days ago not to let Young Master Zhong drive a yacht. At that time, she just thought that it was an internal conflict within the Zhong family that put pressure on Young Master Zhong.
So they did not try to stop Young Master Zhong from driving the yacht today, but they only learned the real story from their boss after they went out to sea.
The original Master Zhong was not the real Master Zhong.
The real Young Master Zhong is someone else, but no one has ever seen him.
The Zhong family did not announce the changes in family members to the public, and only those who were close to them knew about it.
Now that this misunderstanding has occurred, the staff dare not speak out and just want to keep the matter secret.
But when the cleaner who cleans the yacht reported that there was a problem with the lounge door, we realized we were in trouble.
For fear of damaging the company's reputation, the yacht manager could only find someone to repair the yacht secretly, and he did not dare to tell Mrs. Zhong.
The door lock of the yacht lounge has been repaired and can be used normally, but if the door is closed with too much force, the lock core will be shaken. The only way to open the door is to insert the door key and wire together.
But there is no problem with opening and closing lightly.
The yacht manager actually thought about changing the lock, but changing it would definitely leave marks on the door.
Furthermore, the key to the door with a changed lock would not match the key in Mrs. Zhong's hand, which would obviously make it easier to detect the problem.
So I can only leave it like this for the time being, pretending that it has been damaged naturally due to disuse.
…
Busy days always pass quickly, and by mid-June the Ding family had sent out all the invitations.
Ding Qiming wanted to pave the way for his son Ding Li to build connections, so he sent invitations to all the prominent families in Hong Kong.
In fact, it is somewhat like using slander to suppress others.
You have to come even if you don’t want to.
As for Mr. Chen, who had just gone through the pain of losing his son, Ding Qiming was reluctant to invite him at first, but if he didn't send wedding invitations to his family after inviting everyone in Hong Kong, it would be a bit like making an enemy.
The Ding family is going to hold a wedding at the end of August.
The invitation was published in the newspaper the next day after it was sent out.
Everyone in the Hong Kong circle who has some reputation knows the Ding family, but information about the bride's background can only be guessed.
Some said she was the daughter of a wealthy family, while others guessed it was a marriage between two powerful people.
No one thought about ordinary people.
Early in the morning, just after the Zhong family had breakfast, Sister Mei came over with the letter she had received that day to pass on a message.
Yang Ying handled all the trivial matters at home, so she was a little surprised when she opened the wedding invitation.
I couldn't help wondering, "Why did the Ding family send a wedding invitation to our family?"
Yang Ying didn't take it seriously and said casually, "Sister Mei, please remember the date and remind me when the time comes."
Grandma Zhong and Zhong Bangyou had no reaction to the invitation.
Only Zhao Sheng, who was wiping his hands with a towel, looked slightly stiff, with cold eyes. He asked casually, "Whose wedding is it in the Ding family?"
"The man is Ding Qiming's youngest son Ding Li. The woman's name is unknown, only Lin Yiyi." Yang Ying handed the wedding invitation to her son and let him read it himself.
The red wedding invitation seemed a little hot. Zhao Sheng hesitated for a while before reaching out to pick it up. When he opened it, he saw the three words "Lin Yiyi" particularly eye-catching.
Getting married so soon? How long have you known each other?
Zhao Sheng threw the wedding invitation back on the table and got up and went back to his room.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhong actually couldn't figure out the temper of their son who came back halfway, but his behavior just now was obviously wrong.
The couple looked at each other and asked at the same time, "Is he angry?"
Grandma Zhong was an experienced person, and she went to the garden to bask in the sun with a smile on her face, leaning on her crutches.
Every rain falls into dark corners, nourishing the accumulation of mud and dust day and night.
Even without sunlight, soft moss can grow, and over time, flowers unique to the corner will bloom.
In the room on the second floor, Zhao Sheng threw the torn book into the drawer under the desk with an expressionless face, perhaps because he used too much force.
Hit something.
There was another crisp metallic collision sound.
With a bang, the chest of drawers was closed.
The summer in Hong Kong is a bit stuffy, but the new life full of expectations makes people gradually ignore its existence in the busyness.
June passed, Father's Day passed and it was August soon.
With the addition of a talking Lin Yiyi, the Ding family has a lot more laughter and joy, which at least played a big role on Father's Day.
The two brothers of the Ding family did not confront each other as they did in the past.
…
It was August 1st.
The Zhong family held a birthday dinner.
The invitees were mainly friends and relatives of the Zhong family. Zhong's father took the opportunity of the birthday to introduce his biological son Zhong Jiasheng to everyone.
Compared to Zhong Xu, who was mediocre in all aspects, the burly man in front of him looked more like a member of the Zhong family.
His appearance is not particularly outstanding, but his aura is hard to ignore. Further, one can find that he has deep eyebrows and a high nose bridge. However, his lips are too thin, and he does not seem to be a very compassionate person.
The relatives of the Zhong and Yang families had heard some rumors two months ago, and now that they had seen it with their own eyes, they all had their own plans.
If Zhong Jiasheng wanted to be like Zhong Xu before him and just enjoy life, then there would be no need to give a meeting gift.
You can't afford to pay twice to please idle people.
I heard before the New Year that Zhong Bang might be promoted to a higher level this year. However, I haven't heard any news since early August. It seems that there will be no possibility of promotion before the end of the month.
With this in mind, there will be no more gift for meeting someone.
Just giving a decent birthday gift is considered maintaining the etiquette among family members.
Yang Ying attached great importance to her son's first appearance. She carefully selected all his clothes and jewelry, including a sapphire robin brooch and sapphire cufflinks.
Fortunately, the precious jewelry was passed down from her mother, otherwise two months would not be enough to customize the jewelry.
Besides, jewelry that has not been tested over time is only expensive but not valuable.
I had originally intended to give my husband a promotion watch, but due to unforeseen circumstances I couldn't use it. Fortunately it was August, so I just gave it to Gain Capital.
There were many people at the birthday party, and Mr. Zhong kept introducing relatives to his son. A lot of wine was drunk during the party.
Compared with the lively and bustling atmosphere here, it was obvious how desolate it was as Zhong Xu was celebrating his birthday alone for the first time.
Although I received a few gifts here and there, they seemed shabby compared to the past twenty years.
After the birthday party, another piece of gossip spread among the social circle.
The eldest son of the Zhong family is someone else.
