"Thatās just perfect, thereās nothing much you need to help with, itās just a meal together, you just need to be there, Iāll book your rooms at the hotel. See you then, and have a safe trip."
"Okay, okay, goodbye."
After hanging up, Xu Linjiang let out a sigh of relief.
On the afternoon of the fifth day of the New Year, Meng Xinian finally got his leave and returned to the Capital City.
As soon as he entered, he noticed that everywhere was decorated with large red āhappinessā characters and some red balloons.
This...
Didnāt we say not to bother with these?
There were only two grown men at home these days, how did they manage to do all this?
Cheng Cheng leaned against the doorframe and shrugged at him. "I didnāt do these, Wang Yi and Chen Yin did."
He pointed to the room Meng Xinian was using as the wedding room, "Wang Yi asked when youād be back, said the new room isnāt decorated yet, and remember to call her when you arrive."
Meng Xinian raised an eyebrow.
"No need, Iāve already decorated the new room."
He didnāt want anyone else going into the new room.
"Suit yourself. And the hotel rooms are already booked, you said youād find a restaurant yourself, have you done that?"
They initially found a restaurant, but after realizing they needed three tables, Meng Xinian decided not to go there and wanted to find a new place himself.
With the wedding tomorrow, surely heās figured it out now?
"Itās sorted, you can drive over to pick people up then."
"Is it supposed to be a secret?"
"Not a secret," Meng Xinian said, "Little still has to go to college, she doesnāt want people to know sheās getting married. Having three tables at another restaurant could mean bumping into people we know, so I found a smaller place and booked it all."
That way, there wouldnāt be any other guests, so there was no worry about being seen.
Cheng Cheng was momentarily stunned.
"From the way you look, I thought you couldnāt wait to make it so the whole world knew you were getting married."
Meng Xinian smiled slightly.
"I really do want everyone to know that Iām marrying Little, my wife is the most beautiful and smartest in the world, and everyone knows sheās mine, Meng Xinianās. It would be great."
"But Little said she doesnāt want anyone to know, so you eagerly booked an entire restaurant," Cheng Cheng sneered.
"I listen to my wife."
"Alright, but youāre not even married yet, stop calling her your wife, itās so cheesy to hear."
"Cheesy? Then you go find one too."
Scoff.
Heās in no mood to find a wife right now, is there a problem?
He simply doesnāt want to find one.
"Will Little be able to make it back today? Why hasnāt she called?" Cheng Cheng is worried about this now.
Everythingās ready, just waiting for the bride.
If Little canāt make it back, Meng Xinian might just lose it.
He glanced at Meng Xinian.
"Maybe itās not convenient to make an international call from there, but I believe she will make it back," Meng Xinian said.
"Hmm."
"Whereās Uncle Six?"
"Heās gone there," Cheng Cheng pointed in a direction, referring to the secret location Li Hanzhong was preparing outside, since Ah Liu couldnāt easily visit them directly, they would meet there, "He said they canāt make it to the wedding banquet tomorrow but have prepared gifts for you."
If Li Hanzhong and Jiang Yingqiong showed up at their wedding feast, it would be too flashy and quickly attract a lot of attention, increasing the chance of Ah Liu being exposed.
Meng Xinian nodded.
He didnāt mind whether they attended or not.
Anyway, he would still give Chiang Xiaoxiao a grand wedding in the future.
