BXBX NOVEL Chapter 181 - 181: Where is the groom?
The night passed by, but Qiao Yin did not sleep well.
She had dreamed about Lu Lingche again.
This time the dream was even more absurd. She dreamt that Lu Lingche and Lan Yuyi had eight children, and the couple insisted that she bless their children and even name them, which grossed her out.
After waking up, she rinsed her forehead harshly with cold water, hoping to clear her head so that she’d stop having such outlandish dreams.
Her mobile phone rang, she answered it, only to hear Lu Yanxi’s rushed voice: “Second Sister-in-law, have you divorced my Second Brother? Why did I receive a wedding invitation from Second Brother and Lan Yuyi? They are holding their wedding tonight!”
“We haven’t divorced.”
Lu Yanxi was extremely surprised: “You haven’t divorced? Then why are they holding a wedding? Has… has my Second Brother lost his mind? Is he really this desperate to marry Lan Yuyi?”
Qiao Yin gave a bitter laugh: “I also don’t know what’s going on. It’s probably true love.”
However, Lu Yanxi was steadfast: “Second Sister-in-law, I’m definitely on your side. I won’t be attending their wedding! I’m going to protest by not attending!”
“No need, Yan Xi, just go to the wedding. However, I do need a favor from you.”
“What can I help you with, Second Sister-in-law?”
“I remember you have connections with some decent styling teams, could you recommend one for me? And also, can you lend me a decent-looking gown?”
Lu Yanxi was stunned: “Second Sister-in-law, what do you need a gown for? You’re not actually planning to go to my Second Brother’s wedding, are you?”
“Yes, you guessed right.”
Qiao Yin wiped her face and looked at her somewhat pale complexion in the mirror, managing to summon an ugly grin: “Lan Yuyi sent me a message last night asking me to bless her and Lu Lingche. What do you say if I send my blessings in person?”
Lu Yanxi was instantly overflowing with admiration: “Second Sister-in-law, you’re psychologically strong, even daring to step foot at their wedding ceremony! Don’t worry, I’ll definitely secure the best styling team for you!”
The day passed quickly with the evening swiftly arriving.
Guests arrived one by one at the Lu Family’s private estate.
The estate was decorated lavishly with classical touches. Madam Lu and Wen Bilan welcomed the guests, their faces filled with joy.
The wedding was arranged hastily, so both sides didn’t invite many people, just their closest friends and family. They barely managed to throw together five tables of people, most of which were friends and family of the Lan Family.
However, even after the wedding time had passed, the groom was nowhere to be seen.
Not only the groom, but his father was also absent.
After the last guest was seated, an anxious Madam Lu took out her phone to call her son.
Regrettably, no matter how many times she called, no one answered.
Then she dialed Lu Mingzhen’s number, but it was also unanswered.
She was sweating with anxiety: “How can both old and young be so unreliable! The wedding is a big deal, how can they be late!”
Shengling Corporation.
Lu Lingche stood in front of several directors, undergoing a severe interrogation.
“Us old fellows have been fighting with the Dongfang Family for decades, and we’ve never lost so badly before! We’ve lost all our face, Lu Lingche, and it’s all because of you!”
“Losing face is secondary, Lu Lingche, do you know how big our loss is without Siya Automobiles? Fifty billion, at least fifty billion! What exactly are you doing? How could you even lose Siya? Which project is next? Are you planning to lose all of our big projects?”
“The Eastern Empire announced this morning that Siya is about to collaborate with their corporation, their stock price has skyrocketed! We’re now in a very passive position!”
“I heard that the person responsible for the Siya Automobiles project on their side is Dongfang Mu, that prodigal son who bolts every responsibility; Lu Lingche, can’t you beat even a prodigal son? If so, it would be better for you to step down from the CEO position!”
