Chapter 65: A Hawaiian Wedding
After speaking, Wanqiu quietly waited for Lin Xiao's reaction, but after a long time, he still didn't have any reaction, Wanqiu smiled bitterly, let go of the hand that had been holding Lin Xiao, and turned around and walked in the direction of the hotel.
Lin Xiao was the only one left in the empty street, standing in front of the fountain in the hotel square, like a sculpture, motionless.
Late autumn had a casual lunch in the hotel restaurant and went back to the room, only to remember that this was originally Lin Xiaoding's suite, his luggage was still there, late autumn quickly sorted out his luggage, opened the mobile phone APP, and was about to open another guest room for himself, at this time the door of the room opened, and Lin Xiao walked in.
"You'd better have your own room. Late autumn picked up the suitcase and prepared to leave: "I'll just open another room." ”
Lin Xiao grabbed Wanqiu's arm and stopped her from continuing to walk out: "I'm sorry, I was so shocked just now that I didn't react for a while, can we talk again?"
Wanqiu nodded, put down the salute, and then sat on the sofa, and Lin Xiao followed her to the sofa.
The two sat relatively wordlessly, and after being silent for a long time, Lin Xiao stammered and asked, "You... How old is the child?"
"One or two years old, I gave birth to him and left the United States. ”
"Boys and girls, do you go back to see him every year?"
"Boy, I've never been back to see him, I didn't want to, and I won't. Late Autumn's answer was cold and decisive
Lin Xiao was too shocked: "Then why did you give birth to him." ”
Late autumn sat indifferently on the sofa for a long time, so long that Lin Xiao thought that she would not want to answer this question, she rolled up the sleeve of her left hand, took off her watch, and revealed the hideous scar:" I knew that I wanted to kill after I was pregnant, but my physical condition was not very good at that time, and the doctor asked me to raise it again, and then because of some things, I committed suicide, and I was very surprised, the child did not flow out, but at that time, I could not have an abortion because of excessive bleeding, and the Qin family was afraid that I would die in the United States and had no way to explain to my father, so they put me under house arrest until the child was born. ”
"Then the Qin family used their own power to let the child's father adopt the child?" Lin Xiao's guess was actually logical. The love between Qin Fengyan and Leng Yingzi was too vigorous, and no one would have thought that there would be a late autumn among them.
"Sort of. "Late autumn, suddenly, I lost the courage to explain, it turns out that this kind of thing also has to be done in one go.
"That kid's father..."
Wanqiu didn't wait for Lin Xiao to finish speaking, and then resolutely interrupted: "He is about to get married, and he and I will not have any intersection in the future." ”
Committing suicide, being under house arrest, and being forced to give birth to a child, Lin Xiao didn't know what he experienced in the United States in late autumn, but looking at the hideous wound, Lin Xiao only felt unbearable heartache and lost the courage to continue to ask.
Everyone has a past that they don't want to recall, An An is his past, and maybe for Late Autumn, the child's father is also that past. Thinking like this, Lin Xiao felt that he and Wanqiu were also in sympathy, he took Wanqiu into his arms and said in a domineering tone: "After that, you really can't meet him again, otherwise I will be jealous." ”
"You..." Wanqiu pushed him away slightly, looked up, and couldn't believe it: "... You really don't mind if I had a baby?"
"To be honest, a little bit of mind. Lin Xiao said seriously: "But I will try to accept it, just like you accept An An and my past, in fact, I was still guilty of you, and now... Flattened. ”
"Okay, it's flat. Late Autumn finally showed a sincere smile.
"But..."Lin Xiao's tone changed, looking at Wanqiu, his brows furrowed tightly: "I still feel a little uncomfortable at the thought that you have had a child with someone else, you have to compensate me." ”’
"How to compensate?" Late Autumn was a little overwhelmed.
Lin Xiao raised Wanqiu's face with one hand and made her stare at herself, then lowered her head, aimed at her soft lips, and kissed her heavily, lingering for a long time before parting: "Just make up for it the way last night." ”
Wanqiu's face was flushed all of a sudden, she gently drooped Lin Xiao with her hand, and said in a very gentle voice: "As long as you can, I will definitely cooperate." ”
"You..." This is simply provoking him, Lin Xiao picked her up from the sofa, and then walked into the bedroom and put her on the bed.
Lin Xiao took off his coat and lay beside Wanqiu, held her hand, and smiled: "I really don't have the physical strength now, sleep with me for a while, maybe it's really okay at night." ”
"Good. Late autumn put her arms around Lin Xiao, sweetly closed her eyes and slept obediently, for the first time, she experienced the happiness of two lovers.
On Valentine's Day on February 14, on the beach of Maui, Hawaii, an unprecedented grand wedding is about to be held, and almost all the rich and high-ranking officials of the Chinese upper class have arrived, and there are many rich people in Europe and the United States who have only been seen in newspapers and magazines.
"The Qin family is so magnificent, and they have turned a wedding into a global financial summit. Lin Xiao took a cocktail in his hand, looked left and right, and praised convincingly.
Today he attended the wedding banquet on behalf of the Lin family, wearing a black straight expensive suit to make him handsome and heroic, and there were many upper-class ladies and ladies around him who frequently paid attention to him.
"That seems to be a super-rich man in Malaysia, what's it called......" Lin Xiao asked Wanqing
"Li Chengzhong?"
"It's him, Li Chengzhong, the richest man in Malaysia, I heard that 60% of the casinos and five-star hotels in Southeast Asia are run by him, what is the relationship between him and the Qin family?"
Wanqing thought for a while and said: "He is Qin Fengyan's uncle, his wife Lou Xiaomin is Qin Fengyan's aunt, he is in his sixties this year, but his knees are still empty, and several of his nephews and nieces are eyeing his property, but I heard that he has made a will, and his wife Lou Xiaomin is the only beneficiary." ”
Lin Xiao smiled: "When did you become a Bai Xiaosheng in high society, you even know about other people's wills." ”
Wanqing was a little weak-hearted, blushing and said, "... My mom wanted to develop a casino plan in the Philippines with him, and I overheard someone check his background. ”
Lin Xiao didn't pay much attention to Wanqing's abnormality, only stared at Lin Qianying, who was looking for an opportunity to talk to Li Chengzhong, and asked casually, "Is Qin Junyan really not coming today? It was his brother's wedding." ”
"No, this is a world where the winner is the king and the loser is Cole, and everyone in high society knows that his father is in prison, and he will only be embarrassed to appear at the wedding. ”
"Do you think this wedding is really too magnificent?" As the guests entered the venue one after another, Lin Xiao's heart slowly gave birth to a trace of doubt.
For a wedding, the whole beach and the entire five-star hotel were chartered, although it was a little grand, but Wanqing didn't think there was any problem.
"Since the Qin family settled in the United States, the style of action has always been very low-key, except for the storm two years ago, the family members rarely report, usually the banquet is with some super-rich or aristocratic families, this wedding, in addition to those top aristocratic rich people, there are many middle-class people and some not very high status ** important members. The Qin family has always regarded itself as a nobleman, and those lawyers, doctors, and parliamentarians are just pawns in their eyes, so how could they invite them to the wedding of their heirs?"
Wanqing looked at the reporters of various TV stations who were stopped outside the venue by the security guards, and really felt that this was the grandest wedding she had ever seen: "Maybe someone married the first beauty in high society, and they were happy and wanted to celebrate with the whole world." ”
As a man, Lin Xiao could understand Qin Fengyan's mood of marrying the woman he loved and wanted to announce it to the world, but even if it was to show off, this wedding was too high-profile.
was pondering, Wanqing suddenly pointed to the big screen next to the rostrum and called him: "Lin Xiao, isn't that person Wanqiu's roommate?"
There are two large screens next to the rostrum, according to the general wedding customs, this screen should be used to play music later or a short film of the bride and groom meeting and falling in love, and now the wedding has not yet begun, and the screen is showing the scene of the wedding scene in real time, so that the reporters who are guarding outside can know a little about the situation in the venue.
Lin Xiao looked in the direction of Wanqing's finger, and sure enough, Tang Shanshan was sitting in an inconspicuous corner on the huge screen, surrounded by bustling people, but she was sitting there out of place, quietly playing with her mobile phone.
Wanqing and Lin Xiao found Tang Shanshan at the end of the banquet according to the direction on the screen, and Wanqing sat next to her with a smile.
On the day of the opening of the school report, Tang Shanshan greeted Wanqing, knowing that she was Wanqiu's sister, but she didn't expect to meet Qin Fengyan's wedding banquet, and was a little surprised: "... You're Late Autumn's older sister... What a coincidence..."
"Is the banquet boring?, why are you sitting here alone?" Lin Xiao asked casually, and his hands naturally fell on the back of the chair where Wanqing was sitting.
Tang Shanshan looked at Lin Xiao and then at Wanqing, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
Seeing her look, Wanqing guessed what she was thinking, and explained, "He is my cousin." ”
Tang Shanshan said in shock: "Cousin? Isn't it..."
Wanqing thought about how to tactfully explain the complicated relationship between her family, and Lin Xiao had already said bluntly: "Wanqiu is the daughter of my uncle and other wives, and she has no blood relationship with me......"
Wanqing glanced at him fiercely, and smiled dryly at Tang Shanshan: "... Hehe... My dad used to have two wives..."
Tang Shanshan's mind was racing, thinking that Lin Xiao's aunt should refer to Lin Wei's daughter, Lin Wei has a son and a daughter under his knees, and her daughter is the famous Lin Qianying, Lin Qianying's husband is not the self-made rich He Mutian who is famous in Macau... When she was playing in Macau that day, she knew that Wanqiu's family opened a casino, and because of her surname, she also vaguely guessed that Wanqiu was He Mutian's daughter.
"Didn't Late Autumn come with you?" Thinking of that night, she happily told Late Autumn and missed that she could come to this wedding in the dormitory, and felt extremely embarrassed, if those gossip magazines were not wrong, He Mutian's second wife was not the current Qin family's third young grandmother Wang Xiaolei, who had been doing it for a long time, this was her "cousin's" wedding.
"She hasn't been in good health lately, and my dad took her to the south of France to recuperate, and she only came back in early March. ”
Tang Shanshan said suddenly: "No wonder I haven't seen her go back to the dormitory in the past two days, it turned out that she went to France, you let her cultivate with peace of mind, I will copy notes for her for the schoolwork she lacks." ”
Wanqing liked Tang Shanshan's well-behaved and dignified personality very much, and seeing her sitting here alone, she thought that it was because she was incompatible with the ladies and ladies of the upper class, so she planned to accompany her to sit at the end of this banquet first. When the wedding banquet officially started and then went back, Lin Xiao was not sociable, but most of the people who came to attend the wedding this time were prominent families in the upper class, and many rich children knew Lin Xiao.
And Wanqing is not idle here, since she sat in the last seat, many people with heads and faces have come to greet her, some are asking her to greet He Mutian on her behalf, some are interested in her wealthy young master, and some are sisters who grew up with her to go to school.
In this lively atmosphere, the bride took her father's arm and walked into this open-air banquet hall with a smile.
In the past, when she lived in the Qin family in late autumn, Wanqing also went to the United States to visit a few times, and lived in the Qin family for a few days, at that time the Qin family had not yet had any changes, Qin Fengyan was in college, lived in school on weekdays, and only went home on weekends, I still remember the weekend when I first met him, she dragged up the late autumn in the morning, and planned to go out for a jog and a few laps to exercise and exercise, in addition to the two sisters, there was also a Qin Junyan who had been attentively accompanying her since she went to the United States, and the three of them were ready to go out with a smile, but they met Qin Fengyan who had just returned from school, at that moment, Wanqing only felt that the morning light in the sky was bright, and everything in heaven and earth was quietAt that moment, it seemed that a breeze was coming from the distant mountains, gently caressing her heart, itchy, warm and numb, and her eyes could only accommodate that peerless face.
"Hello, I'm Leng Yingzi. Just when she was stunned, a pair of Qianqianyu hands reached out in front of her, and looked up at the owner of the hands, her skin was like condensed fat, and her eyebrows were like distant mountains, which was the most beautiful woman she had ever seen since she was born.
The most beautiful woman, intimately holding the peerless man, they are just standing there, they are already the most beautiful scenery in the world, a pair of beautiful people made in heaven!
Since then, she has never seen him again, every time she goes to the United States to visit the late autumn, she always picks up when he is not there, not because she doesn't want to see him, but because he and the woman beside him, make her ashamed of herself, if she doesn't meet, maybe she can leave herself with a self-deception, however, thoughts are thoughts after all, after today, the throbbing in my heart will eventually return to dust.
Sighing silently, Wanqing hid her complicated emotions in her heart, turned her head to Tang Shanshan and said, "The wedding is about to start, I'll go back to my seat first." ”
Tang Shanshan stared at the bride and groom in a daze, and didn't react for a while.
Following Tang Shanshan's gaze, Wanqing looked at the groom again, wearing a black tuxedo, he was in a beautiful demeanor, with a faint and clear distant smile on his face, a pair of eyes, bright and bright, the ladies present were all taken by his demeanor, and cast their eyes on him or amazed or admired or longed, Wanqing only felt that the lakes and mountains of Switzerland, the thousands of miles of glaciers in Greenland, and the thousands of miles of meadows in Shangri-La were the most beautiful scenery in the world that she had ever seen, and they could not match the grace of one ten-thousandth of the man in front of her.
Wanqing didn't dare to look at it anymore, hurriedly returned to her own table, and waited for the wedding banquet to start and everything settled.
Lin Qianying and Lin Xiao, who had been socializing at the venue, also sat back one after another.
