She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.

As soon as Xiao Mohan finished speaking, the marriage certificate was displayed in front of everyone. The private room was silent, as if time had frozen.

Haiyang stared in disbelief, his mouth slightly agape, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

He reached out and took the small red booklet, examining it from top to bottom, as if trying to confirm that it wasn't a prank.

"It really is! It's a marriage certificate!" Haiyang exclaimed, his voice filled with disbelief. "The date on it is really—three days ago?"

His gaze darted back and forth between Xiao Mohan and Lin Manlin, his eyes filled with confusion and shock: "You two confessed your feelings just three days ago, and then got your marriage certificate the very next day?"

Xiao Mohan nodded slightly, a hint of barely perceptible smugness in his eyes: "Some things are pointless to delay. Now that it's decided, there's no need to wait any longer."

Lin Manlin sat quietly beside Xiao Mohan, a faint blush on her cheeks, but her eyes shone with determination.

Upon hearing Xiao Mohan's words, she couldn't help but smile, a gentle smile spreading across her face.

Su Maiqi was also shocked. As Lin Manlin's closest best friend, she hadn't even had a chance to witness the official start of this relationship before it came to an end.

"Then we absolutely must celebrate!" Gu Tingyu broke the brief silence, stood up, walked to the wine cabinet, and took out a bottle of fine champagne. "This is double the joy!"

Mo Yan walked over, took the champagne, and skillfully opened it. With a "pop," the golden liquid overflowed from the bottle, shimmering with a captivating light under the lamp.

"Congratulations!" Mo Yan rarely smiled, pouring champagne for everyone. "Best wishes to you all."

Su Mairou gently patted Xiao Duoduo's head and raised her glass, saying, "Wishing you happiness and a fulfilling life together."

Little Duoduo seemed to sense the joyful atmosphere as well. Even though she didn't quite understand what was happening, she clapped her hands happily: "Uncle Xiao and Aunt Lin got married!"

After several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became increasingly lively, and the initial shock gradually turned into blessings, with laughter filling the private room.

The waiter served up the carefully prepared dishes, each one a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, with exquisite presentation, showcasing Xiao Mohan's attention to detail.

While everyone was enjoying their meal, Gu Tingyu couldn't help but ask, "When are you planning to have your wedding? Do you need Maggie and my help?"

Xiao Mohan and Lin Manlin exchanged a glance, then shook their heads together.

“We’ve decided against a traditional wedding,” Xiao Mohan said calmly. “It’s too complicated and doesn’t suit our personalities.”

Lin Manlin nodded in agreement: "Yes, we'd prefer to celebrate this relationship in our own way."

She paused, a look of anticipation appearing on her face: "We're planning a three-month vacation, a round-the-world trip together, as our honeymoon."

"Three months?" Haiyang's eyes widened in surprise. "That long?"

Xiao Mohan smiled. "This is just the beginning. We want to use this time to see the world and give each other more opportunities to get to know one another better."

“Our first stop is Menor Island,” Lin Manlin added, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. “It’s a small island in the Gili Islands, known as ‘Honeymoon Island.’ It’s said that couples who spend their honeymoon there will have a lifetime of happiness and fulfillment.”

"That sounds romantic," Su Maiqi commented with a smile, "It suits you two perfectly."

“We’re leaving in three days,” Xiao Mohan said. “We’ve arranged everything. This trip is not only our honeymoon, but also a new beginning in our lives.”

He held Lin Manlin's hand tightly, his eyes filled with tenderness and promise: "We want to plan our future together on this journey, and consider the path we'll take in life."

Lin Manlin squeezed his hand back, her eyes also filled with tenderness and expectation.

The unspoken understanding and intimacy between the two made everyone present feel the power of love.

The dinner lasted for nearly three hours. From the initial shock to the subsequent blessings, from the lively celebrations to the in-depth exchanges, the atmosphere remained warm and harmonious throughout.

During dessert time, Su Maiqi gently tugged at Lin Manlin's hand: "Come with me to the restroom."

Lin Manlin understood her best friend's intention, nodded, and got up to follow.

Inside the restroom, soft lighting illuminated their faces, creating a private atmosphere.

Su Maiqi whispered in Lin Manlin's ear, "You're really something, getting married without even telling me. But I believe in your choice, and I'm sure you'll be happy."

Lin Manlin's eyes welled up slightly: "Thank you for your continued support and understanding. This was indeed a bit sudden, but when the moment came, I knew it was the right thing to do."

“I can tell,” Su Maiqi said with a smile, “The way Brother Xiao looks at you is one of the most focused and tender I’ve ever seen. As long as he treats you well, I’m at ease.”

The two smiled at each other; the tacit understanding and tacit agreement between longtime best friends could be conveyed without many words.

Back in the private room, Xiao Mohan was discussing something with Gu Tingyu and Mo Yan. When he saw Lin Manlin return, his eyes immediately lit up, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.

Su Maiqi noticed this subtle change in expression, and she gently squeezed Lin Manlin's hand, her eyes full of blessings.

In the time that followed, everyone spoke freely, sharing their recent situations and future plans.

Mo Yan and Su Mairou's relationship is now stable and public, and the warm and harmonious atmosphere between them has made their daughter, Xiao Duoduo, even more lively and cheerful.

Surprisingly, the girlfriend Ya Xuan that Haiyang brought this time was completely different from the type of girl he had dated before.

Ya-xuan has a calm and reserved personality, and her speech and behavior are well-mannered and refined, which is in stark contrast to Hai-yang.

What's even more surprising is the change in Haiyang—the playboy of the past seems to have disappeared, replaced by a mature and steady man.

The respect and appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Ya Xuan were something that Haiyang had never shown before.

"It seems our generation is finally starting to live a mature and stable life," Gu Tingyu remarked. "I remember a few years ago, we were all staunch singles, especially Brother Xiao and Haiyang, who were practically the representatives of the 'anti-marriage alliance.'"

Haiyang laughed heartily: "Yes, time really is the best catalyst, allowing us to all find the right person for us."

He looked at Ya-xuan, his eyes full of tenderness: "When you meet the right person, you'll want to change yourself and grow."

Ya Xuan smiled slightly, a gentle and reserved smile, but her eyes shone with a determined light.

Xiao Mohan nodded thoughtfully: "People always grow by meeting different people and experiencing different things."

Most importantly, find someone who is truly right for you, someone you can grow with.

His gaze fell on Lin Manlin, his eyes filled with tenderness and affection: "It's like I've found Manlin."

Lin Manlin looked back at him, a sweet smile on her face.

In that instant, it was as if an invisible magnetic field connected the two of them tightly.

As the banquet drew to a close, everyone was slightly tipsy, their faces beaming with happy smiles.

When the time for parting arrived, everyone bid farewell to Xiao Mohan and Lin Manlin, offering their sincerest blessings.

Haiyang patted Xiao Mohan on the shoulder: "Brother Xiao, don't say I'm a womanizer anymore. I'm ashamed of my own speed compared to yours!"

Ya-xuan blushed and tugged at Hai-yang's sleeve, but her eyes were filled with a smile.

Mo Yan stepped forward and, unusually, extended his hand to shake Xiao Mohan's: "Best wishes to you both. Please feel free to contact me if you need any assistance during your trip."

Su Mairou gently hugged Lin Manlin: "I hope your journey will be full of wonderful memories."

Little Duoduo skipped over and hugged Lin Manlin's leg: "Aunt Lin, when are you coming back?"

Lin Manlin knelt down and gently stroked Xiao Duoduo's hair: "Auntie will bring you a gift in three months."

Little Duoduo's eyes lit up: "Really? I'll wait for you to come back!"

Su Maiqi and Gu Tingyu were the last to leave.

Su Maiqi hugged Lin Manlin tightly again and whispered something in her ear, making Lin Manlin blush slightly.

Gu Tingyu patted Xiao Mohan on the shoulder, his eyes full of admiration and teasing: "Your efficiency is really impressive."
