The guests have arrived and the auspicious time has arrived.
Romantic and beautiful music was played by the orchestra. Gu Lingyun stood in the center of the T-stage surrounded by flowers, and watched Ye Bingzhu walk into the hall step by step with a smile in his eyes.
The wedding process was very streamlined, without all the messy procedures and rituals that were neither Chinese nor Western. It only retained the most romantic interaction between the two newlyweds.
Gu Lingyun solemnly took Ye Bingzhu's hand from Ye's father, pulled her to hold his arm, and their eyes met. Ye Bingzhu smiled slightly. Gu Lingyun saw some happiness in Ye Bingzhu's eyes, which made him feel a little relieved.
Yes, Ye Bingzhu was happy, although she had never thought that she would enter the marriage hall at the age of 22, when she was young, beautiful and full of infinite possibilities, and that she would marry a man she had only met a few times.
But she had to admit that today was perfect. From the bride-picking ceremony to the wedding ceremony and the groom himself, everything was so perfect and beautiful that she couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation for marriage.
She thought that maybe her marriage was not as bad as she had imagined, and there might be some sincerity in it.
The ceremony ended and the banquet officially began. Gu Lingyun and Ye Bingzhu went to change their clothes and prepare to toast, while the guests ate and drank.
More than a thousand invitations were sent out for the marriage between the Gu and Ye families, but the number of guests who showed up was far more than that. Gu Lingyun initially prepared a semi-self-service format, with only ten tables of fixed seats served by dedicated waiters, and the rest of the guests were all self-service, which provided everyone with an opportunity for socializing.
There were several long tables filled with all kinds of delicious food that they had never seen or even imagined before. Zhao Si and Su Nan felt like two country bumpkins who had strayed into the palace and had no idea where to start.
"Don't just stand there, take whatever you want to eat." Qi Heng came over and said with a smile. Gu Lingfeng accompanied his brother to toast the elders. Before leaving, he asked Qi Heng to help him take care of them. Of course, Gu Lingfeng's words were not so subtle. His original words were "Please keep an eye on them for me and don't embarrass me!"
"Brother Xiao Qi." Zhao Si and Su Nan called out obediently. Gu Lingfeng had already introduced them to their good brothers. It was only today that Zhao Si found out that this guy who lived in the same building with them and looked a bit unremarkable was actually Mr. Gu's good friend.
Qi Heng smiled and nodded in agreement. He treated Zhao Si as his own and took great care of him. He patiently led them around the long tables, and the two of them returned happily with a plate in each hand.
"Wow!" Qi Heng brought them to his good brother's table. Lu Chi immediately teased him, "I heard you guys are going to join the group soon. How dare you eat like this? Did I hear it wrong?"
Zhao Si looked bewildered. With all these delicious treats lying around, he couldn't eat them? What was the point of living? And why couldn't he eat once he joined the group? Mr. Gu hadn't said anything...
Su Nan understood what Lu Chi meant. He was embarrassed to say that he had never eaten these before. He forgot about them because he was greedy. "Uh..."
Su Nan was racking his brains to find an excuse when Ji Mubai, who was sitting next to him, interrupted, "You'd better mind your own business. They're young and they metabolize it after eating. Do you think you'll get a bigger waist after eating like you?"
"Hey! What are you talking about!" Lu Chi was not happy about this. He stood up and walked to Ji Mubai's side. He grabbed his hand and pressed it against his belly. "Touch it! Touch my abdominal muscles!"
Ji Mubai smiled and struggled, but refused to touch her. "I told you not to be a hooligan. I have no interest in your body!"
"Ugh~ Go away, I'm not interested in you!"
Lu Chi returned to his seat angrily. He was just pretending and didn't really want Ji Mubai to touch him. His noble body was not something that could be taken advantage of by anyone.
Zhao Si and Su Nan just buried their heads in eating, not participating in the topics that their brothers didn't quite understand.
Soon Gu Lingfeng came over after toasting. He sat down next to Zhao Si and breathed a sigh of relief. After being busy all morning, he could finally sit down and rest. Fortunately, he didn't have to get married, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Seeing that he seemed very tired, Zhao Si quickly put down his chopsticks and said, "Are you hungry? I'll get you something you want to eat." Then he stood up.
Gu Lingfeng enjoyed Zhao Si's care as usual, "All right, give me some of what you think is delicious."
"Okay." Zhao Si agreed and left in a hurry, fearing that if he was a little slow, his Mr. Gu would starve.
Zhao Si left, and Qi Heng, who was sitting nearby, listened to their entire conversation. He winked at Gu Lingfeng with a sly smile and whispered, "Tsk tsk, you're really good at commanding me. It seems like you're living a pretty comfortable life!"
Gu Lingfeng was also shameless. He raised his eyebrows proudly and said, "Of course not. It's so lucky to have food and clothes provided for you."
"Awesome!" Qi Heng gave his good brother a thumbs up in admiration.
Gu Lingfeng accepted Qi Heng's compliment without a guilty conscience and started gossiping, "Where's your boyfriend? Why didn't he come today?"
"Hey, she's busy and has no time." Qi Heng felt sad when talking about this. Cong Rui recently participated in a singing talent show and was so busy that she was hard to find. It just so happened that he was also busy writing papers and doing research projects recently. The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time.
Gu Lingfeng patted Qi Heng's shoulder sympathetically. Comparing yourself to others will make you feel nauseous. In comparison, his life is so incredibly happy.
No, no, even without Qi Heng to compare him, his life is still extremely happy!
"Here, eat quickly." Gu Lingfeng was still talking to Qi Heng when suddenly two large plates full of food appeared in front of him.
