110. Weddings
It was already five o'clock, and Lin Rongshen had already called on time to ask if I had rested well last night, so I naturally wouldn't tell him that I cried all night last night.
Of course, he replied that he had slept well, but as soon as I opened my mouth, my voice exposed me, and he asked me what was wrong with my voice.
I laughed and said it was because of a cold.
Lin Rongshen seemed to have guessed something, but he didn't ask much, but told me not to be nervous today, just follow him the whole way, and also give me a vaccination in advance and said that there may be a lot of people.
In fact, I have long guessed that there will be many people, although there are not many relatives in my family, but the relatives of the Jian family alone are worth all the relatives of my family, not including the business partners of the Jian family.
Although it is false to say that I am not nervous, I am also a person who has experienced a wedding, and because of my experience, I am not as afraid as I imagined, and I continue to respond to Lin Rongshen's words.
Lin Rongshen saw that my mood was okay, and he seemed to be a little relieved, and he said, "Wait for me to pick it up, Mrs. Lin." ”
I mumbled quietly.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xiaoya, who couldn't wait, asked, "Okay?"
I nodded, and after confirming that I was well, Zhang Xiaoya immediately called the makeup artist to put on my makeup, and I sat in front of the mirror, looking at myself in the mirror with an inexplicable sense of unreality.
This time the unreality was even worse than the previous ones, and I thought I must have been too nervous, so I took deep breaths repeatedly and vigorously for a long time to calm myself down.
The most anxious person is my mother, who keeps looking outside the door and asks if we are okay, my mother herself may be more nervous and anxious than me, she probably hasn't slept all night, so even in the morning even the conversation is a little upside down.
Zhang Xiaoya could only say to my mother over and over again, that it was almost fine.
During my makeup, Zhang Xiaoya saw that my mother was panicked, so she could only accompany her outside to comfort her.
After the makeup was done, everything was finished and I was just waiting for Lin Rongshen to pick me up, but I waited until almost ten o'clock, and Lin Rongshen, who was supposed to be on the way to the hotel with me, never arrived.
Zhang Xiaoya was so anxious that she stood behind me repeatedly and made a phone call, so she asked and said, "What's the situation, why haven't you come yet." ”
I'm also a little panicked, the banquet is about to start, why hasn't Lin Rongshen arrived yet, and why can't his phone get through, does he regret it? Or does he want to get out of the marriage, or like my mother said, he is trying to take revenge on me, and deliberately wants to make me ugly today.
Just when I was thinking crankily in my heart, the doorbell outside the door finally remembered, Zhang Xiaoya was the first to rush to the door to open the door, and when she saw that the person standing at the door was Lin Rongshen, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief and asked loudly why he came to pick me up now.
Lin Rongshen didn't explain, but asked directly: "What about Lailai." ”
Zhang Xiaoya hurriedly got out of the way from the door and said to her, "I've been waiting for you with makeup a long time ago." ”
Lin Rongshen directly skipped Zhang Xiaoya and walked towards me in the room, when he saw me looking at him at the door of my room in a wedding dress, he looked in a trance, but after a while, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he walked in front of me step by step and stretched out his hand to me and said, "Lailai, you come here." ”
I just looked at him like that, looked at him, and then walked towards him in small steps, Lin Rongshen took my hand, and then laughed, he lowered his voice and said in a volume that only the two of us could hear: "Sorry, it's late." ”
I didn't speak, just looked at him with a little sour eyes, Lin Rongshen looked at my nervous appearance, and he said again, "Are you willing to go with me?"
When he asked me this, my mind was blank, I was silent for a long time, and Lin Rongshen asked again: "Are you willing to go with me?"
Zhang Xiaoya saw that I was familiar with Lin Rongshen's words, so she was so anxious that she stomped her feet on the side, and also reminded me in a low voice for me to answer.
I suddenly realized that if I don't answer now, then I still have a way back, if I say yes, then it means that I have stuffed myself into a dead end, I don't know if it's a thorny jungle or a broad road, and I'm also gambling.
Lin Rongshen was not anxious about my silence, just waited patiently, I took three minutes to think carefully about myself, and when the atmosphere in the room fell into an indescribable embarrassment, I replied in a whisper: "Okay." ”
Zhang Xiaoya was so frightened that she was in a cold sweat, patted her chest and said, "You are really, you are a mother-in-law and mother-in-law when you get married, who are you trying to scare to death." ”
Someone gently pushed her on the side to remind her to pay attention to her words, only to find out that she said an unlucky word, and immediately smacked a few times on the ground, which was considered to be unlucky.
Lin Rongshen was getting my answer, a smile spread on his lips, he didn't speak, just led me and walked out the door.
Cheng was silent in an instant, and the room was instantly commotioned, and someone was there shouting that the bride was going out.
There was the sound of fireworks exploding in the room, and Lin Rongshen and I were all full of colorful ribbons in front of me, and I couldn't see the road clearly at all, so I could only let Lin Rongshen pull it.
At that time, I was thinking, I still couldn't resist Lin Rongshen, he was like a catastrophe in my life, the temptation for me was too great, and I didn't get it, so I was always a little unwilling in my heart, I thought that this unwillingness was not consummated, and I would never forget him for the rest of my life.
When I arrived at the banquet venue, I was almost startled when I saw the people walking one after another with champagne in the venue, and asked in surprise, "So many people?"
Lin Rongshen said: "Well, they are all partners of the Jian family. ”
He felt the tension in my body and said, "Don't be too nervous, just treat it with a normal heart, and if someone comes up to toast, it's good to be behind me." ”
I said, "What about you?"
Lin Rongshen smiled and said, "No way, you have to talk about it once." He stroked my back and said, "I'll try to stay awake." ”
I said, "It's not going to be like the last time I got married, is it?"
Lin Rongshen said: "No, these people will have a symbolic toast at most, don't worry." ”
I nodded, and Lin Rongshen led me to walk at the banquet, but after only two steps, Lin Rongshen's assistant came to us and whispered to remind Lin Rongshen that Old Man Jian was invited.
Lin Rongshen nodded quietly, and then said to me, "Let's go." ”
I nodded and followed behind Lin Rongshen.
After hitting the lounge where Jian Lihua was, he was listening carefully to what the secretary next to him was saying, nodding from time to time.
Lin Rongshen led me to stand at the door, knocked lightly, Jian Lihua raised his face and looked over after hearing the sound of the door opening, and when he saw that it was us, he said lightly: "It's here." ”
Lin Rongshen led me in, and after taking me to sit down on the sofa, he said to Jian Lihua, "Grandpa, is there something wrong?"
Jian Lihua also knew that time was pressing, so he didn't waste any time, he said: "That's the case, Rong Shen, I discussed it with the host just now, because of the particularity of the two of you, many of the people who came here to attend the wedding are also Lin Haixin's old friends, and there are many people who also know Lailai's mother, so I don't need Lailai's mother to go up in person to toast and talk to my parents later, I have already found someone to replace me." ”
I heard Jian Lihua's words and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"
Jian Lihua's secretary seemed to be afraid that I wouldn't understand, so she immediately accosted me and said, "Mrs. Lin, Mr. Jian means that your mother doesn't have to attend such a scene, and we have prepared another identity for you to introduce you at the wedding banquet, so that the previous affairs between you and Mr. Lin will not be gossiped about." ”
I said, "You mean to keep my mom from attending, and then at the ceremony you're going to introduce me in the capacity you've prepared, and then let someone I don't know act as my parent, right?"
The secretary said, "That's right. ”
I refused and said, "I don't agree, this is my wedding, I am my mother's daughter, this wedding means a lot to me and my family, my mother is my only relative in this world, I can't let a stranger be my parent, it's absolutely impossible." ”
The hardness of my attitude made Jian Lihua's face change slightly, and he said, "You mean you want people to poke the backbone of my Jian family?"
I said, "I don't have such thoughts, but I don't have anything to do with Rong Shen now, even if someone knows what happened to us before?"
Jian Lihua sneered and said: "You are really frank about the previous things, yes, as soon as Lin Haixin dies, the relationship between you and Rong Shen has broken down legally, but in the eyes of others, it is not as simple as you think, this is not just talking, and my Jian family can't afford to lose this person, so this matter is not discussed at all, and it must be handled according to what I said." ”
I said, "If that's the case, then there's no need for this wedding at all." ”
Jian Lihua's face sank angrily and said: "Okay, it's better not to handle it, I just think that you and Rong Shen are not suitable, I can claim that the wedding is dissolved, I can afford to lose this face." ”
Lin Rongshen saw that the atmosphere between Jian Lihua and me was getting more and more tense, and he said on the side: "Grandpa, it's better to be like this." ”
Jian Lihua looked at him and said, "You say." ”
Lin Rongshen said: "It is indeed a bit reluctant for her to let someone else pretend to be Lailai's mother, so it is better to remove the toast and the parent's speech, what do you think?"
Jian Lihua seemed to be quite satisfied with this neutralization method, and he didn't speak for a long time, he said: "It's okay to pull it out, it doesn't matter if I go on stage anyway, let the host control everything." ”
Lin Rongshen said: "I will discuss this matter with Lailai's mother." ”
I asked Lin Rongshen and said, "You mean that my mother can't even sit at the table?"
Lin Rongshen said: "This is the best way. ”
I said, "I don't care what other people think. ”
Lin Rongshen said: "I think, you don't want your mother to be pointed at behind the back by people in the know." ”
