When Guo Xuyang and Yu'er arrived, the room was filled with people, chatting and laughing in small groups.
Lu Liang was talking with Jiang Qixin, bursting into laughter from time to time.
"Brother Liang, congratulations," Guo Xuyang walked over.
"You finally made it, kid. The boss said you were exhausted from your trip and were catching up on sleep at home."
Guo Xuyang blushed, smiling, "Fortunately, I lived up to expectations and completed the task assigned by President Jiang."
"I heard you even captured a beautiful woman?"
"Who said that? Your information is inaccurate."
"Who else would say that? You won't admit it, will you?"
"There's really no beautiful woman. It's not convenient to talk about this here."
"Trying to keep a mistress, huh?"
"No. It's mainly because the mission was highly confidential."
"Then forget it. Will you help me hold the quilt or light the firecrackers?"
"I'm already married, holding the quilt wouldn't be appropriate, would it?"
"How about lighting the firecrackers?"
"Don't steal my livelihood," Pi Xiaoqian chimed in. "I'm the professional firecracker lighter."
"Then you can help me hold the quilt. Let's not be so particular."
"What will I say when I get there?"
"What's there to say? You're my friend, here to help hold the quilt.
What are you worried about? Afraid her parents will recognize you? Put your mind at ease.
With so many people, who knows who? As long as you don't give yourself away, it'll be fine."
"Alright then, I'll help you hold the quilt," Guo Xuyang agreed.
"Your wives must help as bridesmaids."
"Why are they being brought into this again?"
"Xiao Yu specifically requested them, and he's already spoken to them. Xia Li, Ye Zi, Yu'er, Lin Ziqi, Xin Rui, Xu Lili."
"Xu Lili isn't one of my wives," Guo Xuyang quickly clarified.
"I know. Old Xu also came, right? It was decided on the spur of the moment today."
"Yes. As long as it's easy for them, I have no objections. What about the groomsmen? Who are they?"
"You, Fatty, Xu Dahai, and I asked Xu Hui to find a few more handsome guys from the shop."
"How was the car situation arranged?"
"Xu Hui helped arrange all that. I didn't ask. A total of eight cars. The boss will lead the convoy."
"Is there anything else that needs preparation?"
"No need. Xia Li helped bring the jewelry set. We just need to pick up Xiao Yu the day after tomorrow."
"Mm. It's just a formality anyway, we're an old married couple, not that excited anymore."
"That's not right, even an old married couple is getting married for the first time, the necessary formalities must be observed," Fatty Pi Xiaoqian said from the side.
"Yes, President Pi is right. Regardless, this is life's first time," Wu Youzhi added in support.
"Why did you all rush back?"
"Of course, we had to come back to help with Brother Liang's wedding. By the way, I heard you're planning a collective wedding in Brazil on May 4th. Count me in, how about it?" Fatty asked.
"What are you talking about now? Why are you only thinking of it? Have you spoken to Xiao Xi?"
"What's there to talk to Xiao Xi about?" Fatty asked in confusion.
"Her team helped arrange all of this. Where are you planning to get your marriage certificates?"
"Of course, here. What do you mean?"
"You and we are not on the same path," Guo Xuyang said. "We had to go abroad because it was difficult to get marriage certificates domestically."
"You never told me this."
"Didn't I? I remember mentioning it when we were discussing your marriage with Xiao Xi. Did you forget? President Wu remembers, right?"
"I've already contacted Xiao Xi," Wu Youzhi said.
"Is Sister-in-law willing?" Guo Xuyang hadn't expected Wu Youzhi to be so bold.
"She agreed after I told her about Xu Liping's pregnancy."
"Sister-in-law is truly good to you."
"I'm far from being as good as you. Perhaps it's because your sister-in-law agreed so readily out of consideration for your wives."
"President Wu, you're not using me as an excuse, are you?"
"No. I just mentioned it in passing."
"I knew you would talk about me."
"Brother, what else could I do?"
"Then will Sister-in-law go?"
"Yes. Why wouldn't she? She specifically spoke to Xiao Xi and said she's going too."
"Go ahead. It'll be more lively if we all go together. I've already told my parents, and we'll charter a plane directly to Brazil. President Jiang, I was looking for you. We'll need your help to coordinate this flight." Guo Xuyang suddenly turned to Jiang Qixin.
"No problem. I paid attention when I heard about this during the last wedding. I'll call them tomorrow morning, and it should be easy."
"We'll all go to Brazil for a collective wedding then, and take the opportunity to visit other countries, see their customs and traditions. Consider it a destination wedding."
"Your destination wedding is quite extravagant, chartering a plane," Fatty said enviously from the side.
"If you're going, you can get your license here first, or get it when we return if that's not possible."
"How long will the trip be? Wang Yu and the others might not be able to get leave if it's too long."
"My plan is for seven days to half a month, but the exact duration will depend on everyone's opinion," Guo Xuyang said.
"Then I'll hurry and call Wang Yu to prepare. Can we still arrange it with Xiao Xi now?"
"You'll have to ask Xiao Xi. I haven't inquired about this matter at all. I just got back and came straight to Brother Liang's place."
"Tell me, who has a life as good as yours? Your collective wedding is being personally organized by your wife. I really don't know what good karma you've accumulated over lifetimes," Fatty said enviously from the side.
"It's no use having a good life. You can't ask for it," Guo Xuyang deliberately provoked him.
"I'm not talking to you anymore, it's depressing," Fatty feigned grief and went aside to call Li Minxi.
"Is the restaurant booked?"
"Of course. It's still your Junyue Grand Hotel."
"That's what they call keeping business within the family," Guo Xuyang said with a chuckle.
"Everything is ready except for the final touch. You all just need to come a bit earlier the day after tomorrow," Lu Liang said.
"Let's go, we'll have a pre-wedding banquet today and see how the dishes you ordered are prepared?"
"Of course, no problem. Xiao Xi and Xiao Yun helped decide these."
"If Xiao Yun decided them, then there's no problem. If they are also there tonight, should we change the venue?"
"Brother Guo, why don't you call and ask? If they are going, we'll change the venue. If they aren't, we'll go and taste it," Wu Youzhi said from the side.
Guo Xuyang thought that made sense and directly dialed Liu He's number.
"Manager Liu, Xiao Yun and the others haven't booked a table at the hotel tonight, have they?"
"No, President Guo. What are your instructions?"
"Prepare a table for us as if it were the banquet the day after tomorrow, and I'll bring these friends to try it."
