Chapter 641: 598 Wedding 1 (First Update)

Lu Family’s restaurant, Bai family members also came over.

Ge Qing called for Sun Qing, who was also one of Tang Su’s bridesmaids on the wedding day. Starting tomorrow, she would be off work, having asked for a few days off to rest and recharge, not wanting to disgrace Tang Su.

Duoduo was also a bridesmaid, and Long Siyan was a bridesmaid who had taken the initiative to volunteer; she would arrive the day after tomorrow.

The Su family members were also brought over by Bai Wei, who had people specially pick them up.

The four families gathered at three large tables, all in one spacious private room.

It was a harmonious and cheerful atmosphere.

Duoduo also arrived; she was Bai Wei’s god-daughter, had paused her work for these few days, and was preparing around the clock for whatever Bai Wei might need from them.

Seeing Tang Su surrounded by adoring stars, her female cousins were incredibly envious. Who could have imagined that the ugly duckling they had always looked down upon would one day become a beautiful swan?

Thus it goes to show, not all fairy tales are deceitful; the tale of the ugly duckling, indeed, has many successful cases.

Envious as they were, now no one dared to treat Tang Su with disrespect.

The difference between the Tang family and the Su family was that, although the Tang family knew Tang Su had ’climbed up the social ladder’, they kept a very level-headed attitude, without any thoughts of taking advantage of the Lu family through Tang Su.

The Su family, however, was different. Whether it was those who had changed their attitudes for the better or the Su Family eldest who had never been willing to change, they all felt entitled to Tang Su securing benefits for the family having ’married up’.

For instance, since she knew such a good man like Wu Jie and didn’t like him, introducing him to her cousin was something she ought to do.

Not only did she not do this, but she also took every opportunity to undermine Shen Yi. This was deemed unprincipled of Tang Su.

To this day, they could not persuade Tang Su and Su Ruoan to side with them; naturally, Shen Yi couldn’t get close to Wu Jie, and ultimately had to give up.

Furthermore, with Shen Ao’s fortunes swept away, Su Wanyi could no longer maintain her arrogance.

Lady Su’s attitude had greatly improved, especially towards Zhao Xinlan—she had learned only later that Zhao Xinlan’s maternal grandfather was Harbor City’s richest man of the last century.

Moreover, he had left Zhao Xinlan a lot of money.

It was more than she could spend in a lifetime; no wonder Zhao Xinlan seemed so comfortable living as a dean’s wife, doing nothing, with everyone assuming the money came from her husband, the dean.

Turns out, she was spending her own wealth.

Lady Su’s change of heart towards Zhao Xinlan wasn’t just because she was the granddaughter of a wealthy man, but also because her own mindset had shifted, clarifying many things for herself.

Her youngest son loved her, and in his life, he would marry no other woman. As a mother, she surely didn’t wish her own son to live a life of solitude.

Even if Zhao Xinlan couldn’t have children, having her as a companion for her son was good enough.

Shen Ao didn’t come today; Su Wanyi planned to divorce him.

Of course, such matters wouldn’t be discussed openly by Su Wanyi, as it was not something to be proud of.

Patriarch Bai very much liked Tang Su’s grandparents but only exchanged greetings with Tang Su’s maternal grandmother without having a conversation with her.

Considering the Tang family members had traveled such a long distance by plane, even if it was on a charter plane, they must be exhausted. Even if there was much to discuss, under Bai Wei’s management, the dinner concluded early after two hours.

She arranged for drivers to take the Su family back, while all of the Tang family were settled into the villa, with dedicated butlers and servants taking care of their diet and daily life.

Whatever they wished to eat, they just needed to inform the butler.

Knowing that there were many children in the Tang Family, the villa was stocked with an abundance of snacks, drinks, fruits, and milk.

After everything was arranged, Tang Shengyi and Su Ruoan went to stay with the Lu family.

In the evening, Bai Wei planned to have a serious talk with Su Ruoan.

Tang Shengyi was also very satisfied, as this meant he could go night fishing at the Lu Family’s.

May 18th.

Long Siyan and her elder brother arrived in Beijing, and Lu Han arranged a hotel for them. Grand Elder Long was getting on in years, so he spared himself the trouble; however, he sealed a big red envelope himself and had the siblings bring it over.

"How’s Grand Elder Long’s health?" Lu Han asked.

"Not too bad, he spends his days at the community’s entrance watching the old men play chess."

"That’s quite good."

Lu Han invited them to dinner at Xinghua Hall. Even though the Ouyang Family had gone through such a big ordeal, Ouyang Chen’s issues hadn’t affected Xinghua Hall.

Ouyang Chen had no interest in running the company, so after the Ouyang Family members were gone and the affairs settled, his plan was to simply sell the group.

With the money from selling the company, he aimed to expand Xinghua Hall directly.

After dinner, Tang Su took out several sets of formal dresses for Long Siyan, "Try these on tonight when you get back to the hotel. It’s a bit of a hassle, but if anything doesn’t fit, message me on WeChat. I’ll find someone to fix them for you tomorrow."

"Mm, they should fit. I haven’t gained any weight recently, hehe." Long Siyan said, laughing.

Knowing she was to be Tang Su’s bridesmaid, and wishing to seriously impress Longyi that day, Long Siyan dared not gain any weight.

"Alright."

On the last day before the wedding, Tang Su and Lu Han didn’t organize any bachelor or bachelorette parties.

Most brides-to-be would be too excited to sleep the night before their wedding. Tang Su was excited too, but in order to be in a better state for the wedding day, she drank a glass of milk and went to bed early.

After lying down, she didn’t think much and fell asleep quickly.

By her side, Lu Han waited until Tang Su was deep asleep, then he quietly got up and left their bedroom.

"Tang Su fell asleep?" Bai Wei turned off the lights in the hallway, also planning to go to bed early and wake up early the next day.

"Mm, she’s asleep."

"And you’re not sleeping yet? Where are you going?"

"Oh, just stepping out to get something nearby. I’ll be back soon."

"Come back early, okay?"

"Mm, got it."

Lu Han went out but didn’t leave the residential area; instead, he directly headed to the villa next door.

That villa, which his mother always thought was unoccupied, actually had someone living in it, and the owner was his mentor, Professor Ming. Before, Bai Wei had thought about buying that villa next door so when Su Ruoan and the rest came over from Hua City, they would have their own space and be willing to stay for more days rather than feel like mere visitors.

Bai Wei had long-term considerations, only to be thwarted by the owner next door who acted as if money was no concern, neither living there nor selling it.

Lu Han got in with a facial recognition scan, and the house was devoid of any butler or servants.

Lu Han went straight into the house where Professor Ming was sitting in the living room, drinking white liquor.

As soon as Lu Han entered, Professor Ming didn’t even turn his head, "You’re here?"

"Yes, I thought you wouldn’t arrive until tomorrow." Lu Han walked over; on the coffee table, there was another glass of white liquor along with some peanuts.

Professor Ming’s meals were simple and plain, and in the evenings he would enjoy some liquor with peanuts, leading a life of utmost simplicity.
