A beautiful summer night

After the wedding ceremony of Sherlin and Luo Biyu was completed, the host announced the start of the banquet, and the guests moved around and clinked glasses.

Xie Qiyansui, the head of the Xie family, refused to sit with the Xie family members and instead put his arm around his daughter-in-law's waist and went directly to sit at Jiang Baichuan's table.

Xie Tan followed along eagerly, carrying his wine glass that he used to hold juice.

"Will Brother Baichuan and Sister Yunli be my brother and sister-in-law's best man and maid of honor?" In the new year, Xie Tan didn't grow any taller, but he did look much more mature than last year. Perhaps he learned it from Xie Qiyan, as he is now speaking more directly.

Yunli raised her glass and clinked it with hers, raising an eyebrow: "Of course I can't wait, but you're missing the point in your question. You should ask your brother and sister-in-law when they're getting married."

Xia Wanzhi chuckled: "You two."

They had to resort to a double act to ask her for information.

Yunli immediately guessed what was going on from Xia Wanzhi's expression, sat up straight, and exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be next month?"

"So fast?" Xie Tan's eyes widened.

Xia Wanzhi said calmly, "This year."

"Not decided yet?" Jiang Baichuan nudged Xie Qiyan's shoulder.

Xie Qiyan just smiled at Xia Wanzhi: "The plan is still being revised."

Every night before bed, Xie Qiyan would go through the wedding plan in his mind, but each time he finished, he would have many new ideas, so the plan was revised one after another.

He only discussed the wedding with Xia Wanzhi, saying it would be held this year. As for the other complicated matters, he didn't tell Xia Wanzhi about them yet.

Whether it was planning the wedding or during the wedding ceremony, he hoped that Xia Wanzhi would enjoy it.

Jiang Yourong happened to run back and overheard the conversation, interjecting, "Are you short of flower girls? We can have Chaochao and Mumu be your flower girls then."

Jiang Baichuan said with dissatisfaction: "The 'morning and evening' time is reserved for me and your sister-in-law."

"You haven't even given Yunli a betrothal gift yet, and you're already dreaming of being a flower girl at the wedding?" Jiang Yourong provoked him.

Yunli: "Cough..."

"Even food can't shut you up." This was the only thing Jiang Baichuan had ever lost to Jiang Yourong in since childhood. He groaned inwardly, but could only raise his glass and shout, "Come on, let's all down one!"

After finishing his drink, Jiang Baichuan secretly took Yun Li's hand, a smile playing on his lips: "Shall we go upstairs after the banquet?"

That's why the Xie family chose such a wonderful wedding location; it's perfect for him and Yunli to go on a date in their penthouse suite.

Yunli glared at him, neither agreeing nor refusing.

"This is delicious, Sister Wanzi, you should try it." Xie Tan, who rarely gets to eat at the table, happily turned the round plate on the table for Xia Wanzhi, who was focused on eating.

Xia Wanzhi nodded repeatedly: "Mmm-hmm!"

"You two are really..." Yun Li was so angry she almost laughed. "So pathetic."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw a person standing not far away, looking straight at him. The distance was not far, only a few tables of guests away. The person's eyes were sharp and a little flustered, as if he was staring intently at someone.

Noticing Yun Li's gaze, the man hurriedly looked away and prepared to leave.

"Wanzi," Yunli gestured for Xia Wanzhi to look, "Do you know that woman?"

Xia Wanzhi swallowed a mouthful of soup and looked in the direction Yun Li was pointing: "Who is it?"

I didn't see anyone's face, but I noticed a figure hurriedly leaving, with long, curly hair and a light-colored hair.

"I didn't see clearly." Xia Wanzhi frowned slightly. "What's wrong?"

"I feel like I've seen him somewhere before, but I can't quite place him." Yun Li leaned back in her chair, feeling like the answer was about to come out, but she just couldn't quite put her finger on who it was.

"Then let's not think about it anymore." Xia Wanzhi stood up and pulled Yunli along with her. "Let's go to the restroom."

“Okay.” Yun Li had been wanting to find out what was going on, but when she got up and saw someone coming over to toast Xie Qiyan and Jiang Baichuan, she simply kept quiet and ran off with Xia Wanzhi.

Just as she stepped out, before she even entered the restroom, someone rushed straight at Xia Wanzhi—

"Xia Wanzhi, please save me, save my child..."

Xia Wanzhi was pushed back a few steps, her expression serious.

There was no reaction because they recognized who this person was.

Yunli pushed her away forcefully, asking, "Who are you?"

"You've got the wrong person, Sun Lingzhi." Xia Wanzhi stopped, her voice unusually calm and indifferent, and called out to Sun Lingzhi, who was frantically grabbing her hand.

Yunli was bad at recognizing people. When she first heard the name Sun Lingzhi, Sun Jian reacted and immediately got angry: "Who do we have here? It turns out to be Zhou Yu's little lover."
