"So angry?" Qin Man laughed.

"They are all wishful thinking people. Don't worry about them. If they can't get what they want, they will always try to make trouble. How can I please them and do what they want?"

Qin Xiao didn't take this matter too seriously, and after a while, his anger subsided.

Qin Man went to the bank in the afternoon and deposited the red envelopes from her uncle's twins into her passbook.

The red envelope was also large, with each person receiving 10,000 yuan.

At this time, the hundred-dollar bill was still light blue and light yellow.

On the night before leaving for Kyoto, Qin Man gave Jiang Lian the money she was going to use as a gift for Cheng Song's wedding.

"I can't attend Cheng Song's wedding. Please bring the gift money to me and apologize to him for me, saying that I can't attend because of something!"

Jiang Lian felt the red envelope in her hand was a bit hot. She originally didn't want to participate.

After all, given her previous relationship with Cheng Song, it was not appropriate for her to show it in front of the bride, so as not to cause trouble for her.

"Sister-in-law, I don't really want to go either. How about you ask your colleagues at the electronics store to take me there?"

"Why not go? Didn't you promise me last time? Will you go?

I can't go, so there's no other way. Otherwise, I have to go and show my support. You can't avoid it, so you might as well face it directly. Besides, Cheng Song won't tell his soon-to-be-married wife about you, so just go!"

"But I..." Jiang Lian still hesitated.

"Don't worry, I trust you, just go have a meal, and come back when you're done!"

If she doesn't go, people will think she is deliberately avoiding suspicion.

The next morning, Qin Man and his wife packed their luggage and took their children and brother back to Kyoto to meet their relatives.

Jiang Lian had no choice but to get dressed and go to Cheng Song's wedding day.

When we arrived at the entrance of Dongyuan Hotel, Cheng Song was wearing a formal suit and his hair was combed back, looking meticulous. He was usually sunny and handsome, but today he looked more mature and elegant.

Next to him stood a woman wearing a bright red cheongsam embroidered with peony flowers. This dress was designed by Cheng Song and Wan Qian. This should be today's heroine, the bride.

Her hair was tied up, and she wore a pair of gold dragon and phoenix bracelets on her hands. The necklace was also made of gold, and the ring was also made of gold. It was a size bigger than the one my second brother bought for my second sister-in-law.

I guess Cheng Song's family is well off. They can hold a banquet in the Dongyuan Hotel and make it so lively, so they must be from a wealthy family.

However, the girl’s appearance was not outstanding, just average. She smiled brightly and must be very satisfied with this marriage. She just whispered a few words to Cheng Song and then went in. Cheng Song continued to greet guests at the door with his parents, with no expression on his face. Occasionally, when someone came, he would smile and chat with them.

Jiang Lian came here on foot. Dongyuan Hotel was not far from where she lived.

Cheng Song spotted Jiang Lian in the crowd at a glance, trotted down the stairs, and came to greet her with a smile on his face.

"You're here, but why are you alone?"

Cheng Song looked left and right, but couldn't see Qin Man.

"Don't look for her anymore. My second sister-in-law is reunited with her family in Kyoto now!"

Cheng Song nodded. He knew a little about Qin Man's affairs, but not in detail. However, it was not a good idea to ask too much about other people's private affairs.

"Come in with me, there are melon seeds, peanuts, fruits and snacks inside. If you are bored, I can arrange for someone to play mahjong with you or chat with you!"

Cheng Song led Jiang Lian to the hotel. Jiang Lian deliberately kept a distance from him, not walking side by side with him, but two steps behind him.

"Don't bother. I'm here to give a gift and also give one to my second sister-in-law. I won't stay here for long. My second sister-in-law went to Kyoto. The commercial house she just bought is still under renovation. I have to help keep an eye on it. The second store over there at my eldest sister-in-law just opened not long ago. The business is so good every day. I have to help look after it too!"

Jiang Lian didn't plan to stay here for that long. The banquet would start at three o'clock in the afternoon and it was only eleven o'clock now, so there was still plenty of time!

"I see. I originally thought you wouldn't come, but I'm so happy that you came in person!"

As he walked onto the stairs, a trace of loneliness flashed across Cheng Song's face.

"A'song, why haven't we seen this lady before?" The speaker was Cheng Song's mother.

"This is my aunt's colleague from the fifth store. His surname is Jiang!" Cheng Song introduced.

It was only later that they found out that Manager Peng was actually Cheng Song's biological aunt.

"So that's the case. Then Miss Jiang, you must eat and drink well today!" Mother Cheng led Jiang Lian in.

Jiang Lian walked to the place where favors were recorded, took out two red envelopes, stated her own name and that of her second sister-in-law, registered them, took the souvenirs in return, and without even asking to go in and take a look at the wedding scene, she turned around and was about to leave.

"Ms. Jiang, why don't you eat before leaving?" Cheng's mother tried to persuade her to stay.

"No, Auntie, I still have things to do, so I'll leave first!" Jiang Lian refused with a smile.

"You have to eat some wedding candies before you leave!" Cheng Song took out some red date candies from his pocket and handed them to her.

Jiang Lian only took one, peeled it open and ate it on the spot.

"It's so sweet. One is enough for me. There are still many more here!" Jiang Lian waved the souvenirs in her hand, which were all filled with candies.

The dates were so sweet that they made her teeth ache.

Cheng Song smiled knowingly and did not answer.

"Oh, I forgot to congratulate you. I wish you a happy wedding, a long-lasting marriage, a son soon, and good luck!"

After Jiang Lian finished speaking, she walked down the stairs.

After walking a few steps, I heard Cheng Song shouting from behind:

"When you're about to get married, remember to let me know so I can return the favor!"

Jiang Lian turned around with a smile as bright as the wind:

"Then you may not be able to pay it back in the next few years. Maybe I will have to come over next year to give you a full moon wine as a favor!"

Jiang Lian has no plans to fall in love now. She wants to follow the example of her second sister-in-law and concentrate on her career.

Her figure gradually faded in Cheng Song's eyes until it disappeared completely. He stood there in a daze for a long time, until finally, he smiled with relief.

The bride saw him staring at the receding graceful figure from behind and felt puzzled, so she walked over to him and asked:

"A-song, who is she? Why have I never seen her before?" The bride took his arm.

"No one, just an ordinary colleague!"

Cheng Song acted calm and nonchalant, as if he and Jiang Lian were really unfamiliar with each other.

"She's just an ordinary colleague. Why are you staring at her? Is she pretty?"

The bride was plain-looking and had always been anxious about her appearance. She also liked Cheng Song's tightness. She had just glanced at him from a distance and saw that Jiang Lian was so beautiful and seemed very familiar with her husband, so she naturally felt uncomfortable.

Who can tolerate having a woman who is so much prettier than herself around her husband?

"You look the most beautiful today!" Cheng Song patted the back of her hand soothingly, then pulled her hand off his arm and went in by himself.
