I thought that some people would stay for dinner, but in the blink of an eye, the banquet hall that was bustling just a moment ago was empty with only the Xu family's three members and the staff.
Xu Zhiheng looked around with a lonely expression, as if he had just dreamed.
If the Xu family continues to stay in this situation, they will just become a laughing stock for the hotel staff.
The family of three returned home in a mess. Did Xu Zhiheng think Xu Dake would be furious?
Unexpectedly, Xu Dake just changed his shoes and went upstairs in an eerily quiet manner, leaving the mother and son looking at a loss.
Xu Dake sat in a corner of the dim room, his expression like a complex painting, a mixture of anxiety, anger and unwillingness. His fingers tapped the table unconsciously, making a rapid and weak sound, as if telling of his inner struggle and helplessness.
With his brows furrowed, he stared blankly at the documents and charts in front of him. Those plans that were once full of hope now seemed like shaky sand castles that could be washed away by the ruthless reality at any time.
His breathing became rapid, and every breath he took seemed to be trying his best to draw a little comfort from the thin air. But the room was filled with an oppressive atmosphere that made him feel suffocated.
Xu Dake's heart was filled with fear about the future. His plan had been so perfect and every detail had been carefully planned, but now, everything was in jeopardy.
He recalled the countless days and nights he had devoted in the public sector to achieve a class breakthrough, but all those hard work and high expectations might now be in vain.
This feeling of loss is like a cold current, rising from the soles of the feet and spreading to every corner of the body.
He was filled with resentment. Why? The Fang family canceled the wedding with a simple sentence, but it was his Xu family who had to pay the price?
Fate really plays tricks on people. Is God playing a cruel joke on him?
Xu Dake closed his eyes, trying to find a trace of peace in his heart.
However, deep down inside, his heart was in turmoil, like a pot of boiling water that could not be calmed down.
He knew that if all the plans based on his son's marriage to the Fang family failed, it would not only be a financial loss, but also a serious blow to his personal abilities. The reputation of his company among its peers, his self-esteem, and his future would all be affected immeasurably.
Xu Dake stood up, walked to the window, pushed it open, and let the cold night breeze blow on his face.
He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to blow away the negative emotions. He knew that now was not the time to indulge in the feeling of failure. He needed to wake up and find a way to solve the problem.
But at this moment, his heart is still full of uncertainty and fear. His plans, his efforts, and his future are all hanging on a thin thread and may break at any time.
Xu Zhiheng and Li Fenyan had no way of knowing Xu Dake's worries and anxieties. All the pressure was on Xu Dake alone.
Suddenly, Xu Dake felt that the burden on him was too heavy to bear.
After Mo Yinchuan and Jiang Tiantian left the scene, Mo Yinchuan did not take Jiang Tiantian home directly, but took her to a secluded restaurant halfway up the mountain, surrounded by the sea.
Mo Yinchuan knew that no matter how other people's wedding banquets went tonight, Jiang Tiantian would not be able to enjoy the beauty of dinner in such an occasion, so he carefully arranged this dinner in advance.
In any case, Mo Yinchuan had no intention of staying at someone else's extremely boring dinner party for long.
Mo Yinchuan chose a restaurant located halfway up the mountain, surrounded by blue water on three sides, like a secret garden hidden on the edge of a bustling city.
The afterglow of the stars sprinkled on the sea, sparkling like countless golden gems jumping. The breeze blew, bringing the salty taste of the sea water and the faint fragrance of flowers in the distance, adding a sense of tranquility and romance to this night.
Jiang Tiantian followed Mo Yinchuan's steps and walked through a green path. The good show just now did not affect Jiang Tiantian's good mood. Mo Yinchuan said he would take her to a special place for a date? Jiang Tiantian's mood could not help but become relaxed and happy.
As Jiang Tiantian took light steps, her skirt swayed gently, blending into the surrounding scenery like a moving picture. Mo Yinchuan still looked particularly gentlemanly in his every move. He carefully led Jiang Tiantian to ensure that she would not be tripped by the small stones on the road.
When they arrived at the restaurant, a waiter was waiting at the door. He greeted them with a smile and led them to a seat overlooking the entire bay.
The table was covered with a snow-white tablecloth and placed with exquisite tableware and crystal wine glasses. Everything looked particularly elegant.
As the starlight and soft moonlight slowly sank into the sea level, the sky was dyed a light elegant yellow color. The moonlight and lights reflected on Jiang Tiantian's face, making her look more gentle and beautiful.
Mo Yinchuan personally pulled out a chair for Jiang Tiantian so that she could sit down, and then personally ordered a bottle of carefully selected red wine and several of the restaurant's specialty dishes.
During dinner, the two had a pleasant conversation. They tacitly did not mention the little incident at the wedding. Jiang Tiantian knew that it must have been Mo Yinchuan's work.
Mo Yinchuan and Jiang Tiantian met by chance six or seven years ago, and now they are married again. Their daily life seems to be inseparable, but in fact they are living too hurriedly. Mo Yinchuan's every move reflects the life quality of countless families in different worlds, while Jiang Tiantian is busy with multiple jobs and the heavy responsibilities implied in her career...
The two of them never had a chance to sit down together and calmly talk about each other's work, past life details and future plans.
Although Mo Yinchuan and Jiang Tiantian's first meeting and subsequent marriage were hasty, Mo Yinchuan was able to manage their relationship to be as deep as aged wine, so that Jiang Tiantian did not feel dissatisfied with their lives at all.
This was their second date after their marriage. Mo Yinchuan chose this picturesque seaside restaurant, hoping to draw a beautiful blueprint for their future with Jiang Tiantian on this romantic coastline.
As night falls, the stars dot the sky, and the lights of the seaside restaurant are gentle and soft, like bright gems inlaid in the dark night. The breeze blows gently, bringing the fresh breath of the ocean, and the waves gently hit the shore, making a chord like the sound of nature.
They sat at a table near the window, and through the glass they could see the boundless sea, the waves sparkling, the moonlight sprinkled on the water, forming a silver band of light. There were exquisite candlesticks on the table, the candlelight danced, coating their faces with a layer of golden warmth.
Mo Yinchuan was wearing a well-tailored suit, looking particularly gentle, while Jiang Tiantian was wearing an elegant evening gown. Her beauty made everything around her seem to lose its color.
They sat opposite each other, their eyes revealing deep love and expectations for the future.
As the dinner progressed, the two began to share their past experiences and future plans. Mo Yinchuan talked about how he took over the family business when he was young, how he secured the position that Mo Yifu wanted him to secure despite the eager eyes of many family members, how he struggled in the ups and downs of the business world over the years, and his future prospects for career and family.
Mo Yinchuan's voice was firm and confident. Every word he said revealed his certainty about the future and his unshakable confidence in his own feelings and the lifestyle he chose. This indirectly made Jiang Tiantian have confidence in their relationship and life.
Jiang Tiantian shared some details of her childhood life and her dreams, what kind of person she wanted to be, and what impact and wonderful changes the shocking accident brought to her life...
The two chatted aimlessly about the recent changes in their identities, their feelings about adapting to them, and their surprise at the reconciliation between their mother Jiang Yun and father Huo Junge.
Jiang Tiantian's words are full of wisdom and tenderness, and every one of her plans takes into account their common future.
In this quiet seaside restaurant, Mo Yinchuan and Jiang Tiantian communicated with each other. Their conversation was not only about planning for the future, but also about the fusion of two hearts. They knew that although the road to marriage would not be smooth, as long as they supported each other and faced it together, nothing would be impossible.
After dinner, the two walked hand in hand on the beach. Under the moonlight, their shadows were very long. Their hearts were full of longing for the future. They believed that as long as they loved each other, they could create a beautiful tomorrow together.
This time the beach was so quiet that it seemed as if they were the only two people there for their dinner appointment. In fact, there were only the two of them. Mo Yinchuan didn't want to be disturbed, so there were really only Mo Yinchuan and Jiang Tiantian on the entire beach.
After this exchange, the two tacitly felt that their hearts were closer to each other.
Compared with the peace, tranquility and happiness of Mo Yinchuan and Jiang Tiantian, the Xu and Fang families are not so harmonious.
Although the Fang family will not be affected too much by the cancellation of the wedding on the surface, Fang Tianzuo is used to being in a high position. After he retired, fewer people came to greet him and curry favor with him. He invited many old comrades to Fang Minyi's wedding. Their generation pays the most attention to completion. Although the times are different, they also know that they should respect the ideas of young people. Fang Tianyou always feels that he has lost face.
After returning home, Fang Tianzuo went back to his room without saying a word, and it was obvious that he was very angry.
Perhaps, Fang Tianzuo was not angry about Fang Minyi's way of handling the problem. Marriage is not the goal, happiness is. How could Fang Tianzuo not understand such a simple truth?
What made Fang Tianzuo angry was that Xu Zhiheng, who usually looked upright and considerate to Fang Minyi, turned out to be such a person. As the saying goes, a good rabbit does not eat the grass near its burrow, but Xu Zhiheng, on the other hand, only picked the one closest to it. Fang Tianzuo was so angry that he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage in the hotel.
The hot-tempered Fang Minyi's perfect wedding, which she had carefully planned for a long time, ended in such an embarrassing way. She did not show the rage, hysteria, or fury that Fang Keqian was familiar with, but was rather quiet and a little scary.
"Minmin, just now in the hotel, in front of so many important business and political figures, you showed great calmness. When faced with the worst situation, you solved it in the best way. Daddy wants to thank you for being so sensible." Fang Keqian knew his daughter well and could not criticize her at this time. In addition, Fang Minyi had indeed performed very well in the hotel just now.
In the face of such an emergency, Fang Minyi's calmness was perfect. If the Fang family accepted the Xu family's theory of "AI synthesis, unfair..." and went on with the wedding as if nothing had happened, it would be the biggest joke in Beichuan.
Originally, Fang Keqian was not happy with his daughter's devoted following of that boy Xu. Fang Keqian always felt that his daughter was smart and pretty, and had a good education, so she should marry a wealthy man. Fang Keqian always felt that Xu Zhiheng was not worthy of his daughter.
However, Fang Keqian has never been able to change Fang Minyi's demands, including major life events. When Fang Minyi refuses to listen, Fang Keqian always has to accommodate Fang Minyi's ideas.
When Fang Keqian saw the video just now, he wanted to fold the table in anger, but he was afraid that Fang Minyi would really treat it as if nothing had happened and insist on going through with the wedding. It would not look good if the family was torn apart on the spot.
Fortunately, Fang Minyi figured it out on the spot, and reacted quickly, doing her own public relations on the spot. Now, even if she has no more dealings with the Xu family, Fang Minyi's Fang family's reputation will not be affected in the slightest.
As for the wedding expenses?
The Fang family can afford that little bit of money, so Fang Keqian doesn't feel bad about it.
Fang Keqian thought that as long as Fang Minyi opened her eyes and looked at people more clearly in the future, there would be plenty of boys from good families who could be her match.
"Dad, don't worry. I won't linger on a man who betrays me easily. Thank you for respecting my choice." Fang Minyi's calm tone was totally different from her usual style, which surprised Fang Keqian again.
I couldn't believe it. When did my daughter, who usually did whatever she wanted, without considering the consequences and not caring about other people's feelings, become so calm and rational?
"Silly child, when has your dad not supported your ideas? There have been some gossips outside these days. Why don't you stay at home and rest for a few days. After a few days, there will naturally be other new things to occupy their gossip space, and they will no longer pay attention to our family's affairs. Plus, you handled the situation very well just now, okay?" Fang Keqian looked at Fang Minyi lovingly.
"Well, I know, Dad. You're really tired from preparing this and that these days. My skin has become tired and dull. I need to get some beauty sleep for three days and three nights." Fang Minyi stepped forward and gave Fang Keqian a big hug.
Fang Minyi was not in a hurry to tell her father what she was really thinking. She needed to have a good rest and sleep well first, and then make long-term plans after she had a clear mind, so that she could hit the target with one move and make sure Jiang Tiantian had no chance of turning over. By then, Mo Yinchuan would naturally be her, Fang Minyi's, pocket.
Fang Minyi, who usually looks harmless, becomes a different person when she needs to. Not only does she have a clearer mind, but she also handles things faster, more ruthlessly, and more accurately...
