Chapter 1092: Holding a Wedding Together

~7 min read 1,380 words

Thinking of Li Xiao's sudden disappearance, Cai Xiaotang narrowed her eyes.

She felt there was a conspiracy in this!

Once Li Xiao returned, she would definitely have to ask him properly!!!

But the reality was, before Cai Xiaotang could even ask, Li Xiao came downstairs and took the initiative to find her.

He even called her to the side of the pond, saying he had something to discuss.

Only after arriving did Cai Xiaotang discover that Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue were actually there too.

This situation...

Cai Xiaotang became increasingly suspicious.

Li Xiao took hold of Cai Xiaotang's hand.

As if there were something important, he took a deep breath before saying in a solemn tone—

"Xiao Tang, let's hold a wedding again."

Cai Xiaotang was stunned.

After a moment, she let out a "pfft" of laughter, thinking Li Xiao was joking.

But Li Xiao's expression was extremely sincere.

"What are you laughing at? I am not joking."

His tone was helpless yet sincere.

Cai Xiaotang froze for a few seconds, finally having to believe that he was serious.

But this was just too unbelievable!

Cai Xiaotang slowly reined in her smile and asked tentatively, "So, you really want to hold another wedding?"

"Of course."

"But... I'm already pregnant, what kind of wedding would we hold?"

"Why couldn't we?"

Li Xiao looked straight into Cai Xiaotang's eyes and said tenderly and affectionately, "The previous wedding was just a formality; we went through the motions while carrying out a mission. But a real marriage is about wanting from the bottom of one's heart for the other person to be one's other half. Xiao Tang, this time, I want you to feel my sincerity."

Li Xiao's sweet words made Cai Xiaotang's eyes sting a little.

Actually, regarding that wedding...

She did have regrets.

She regretted that the motive for holding the wedding was impure, and she also regretted that the timing of the wedding was wrong.

If there were a chance to do it

all over again...

Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but feel moved.

Hearing the two's conversation, Jiang Baobao was also filled with emotion.

She knew Li Xiao had put his heart into this.

She was also very happy to be able to witness the two's feelings in this way.

Seeing that Cai Xiaotang was still frozen on the spot, she hurriedly stepped forward, raised her hand to pat Cai Xiaotang on the shoulder, and said in a gentle voice, "Xiao Tang, what are you still hesitating for? Hurry up and agree."

Cai Xiaotang pursed her lips and finally nodded gently.

Li Xiao also instantly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as he pulled her into his embrace.

But just at this moment...

"And what about you?"

Li Beijue suddenly wrapped his arm around Jiang Baobao's shoulder, leaving her somewhat puzzled.

Her?

What about her?

Weren't they trying to persuade Xiao Tang? Why bring her into it?

Wait a minute, could it be that Li Beijue...

wanted her to consider a wedding too?

Jiang Baobao realized something, her eyes widening.

Sure enough, Li Beijue spoke directly—

"I also promised that I would hold a make-up wedding for you."

Jiang Baobao remembered.

But...

Jiang Baobao averted her gaze and said with a look of difficulty, "I'm sorry, Beijue. To be honest, I... have a bit of a shadow over holding a wedding. I'm always worried that at the happiest moment... an accident will happen."

That previous unpleasant experience had left her fearful.

She was very worried that at the most grand moment, some other accident would occur.

Leaving everyone in chaos, and leaving her... caught off guard.

That sense of tension tormented her from time to time.

But even if it was painful, those were Jiang Baobao's own feelings.

Saying it under these circumstances would inevitably be a mood-killer.

Jiang Baobao braced herself and smiled, "I'm really such a killjoy, sorry."

Li Beijue immediately hugged Jiang Baobao and said in a muffled voice, "The one who should be saying sorry

is me. It's me who didn't protect you well."

"Beijue..."

Seeing the atmosphere gradually becoming oppressive, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly said in a loud voice: "Everything is in the past, let's all be a bit more positive."

No sooner had the words fallen—

Li Xiao's voice followed closely: "That's right, then let's start by holding a wedding together!"

What?

Hold it together?

Cai Xiaotang was shocked once again.

She felt that the ideas of the man beside her... were truly unconstrained.

Li Xiao had already made his plans and said slowly: "The wedding won't be a grand affair, just inviting friends and family to witness it; it can also be understood as a kind of family gathering."

"You... this seems like playing house."

"No, this is making up for regrets."

Making up for regrets?

Cai Xiaotang was touched by these four words.

After a long silence, she noticed that Jiang Baobao also had a thoughtful look on her face.

Then...

The two women looked at each other.

And on each other's faces, they both saw a faint smile of relief.

"Let's hold the wedding together!"

Everything after that proceeded very smoothly.

The wedding location was chosen at a manor with beautiful scenery.

There was a large glass house in the manor, inside which were flowers that shouldn't be there in this season.

The flowers were gorgeous and intoxicating.

As for the invited guests, they were all friends and family from both sides.

Since they were friends and family, naturally there was Jiang Chenghao and... Liu Xin'ai.

Ever since Liu Xin'ai returned from B City, every day she was either working or running to the Laboratory.

Even in her bedroom, there were research materials.

And the reason she was working so hard was that she wanted to research results quickly, so she could alleviate Liu Tengnian's illness.

Qin Yiyan had also been busy these past few days, and for the time being, he and Liu Xin'ai were minding their own business.

The two of them were considered harmonious.

However, early this morning, he

discovered that Liu Xin'ai was dressed appropriately, looking like she was going to attend an event.

Qin Yiyan sat at the dining table, waiting for Liu Xin'ai to explain it herself.

But she was almost out the door, and she had no intention of speaking!

Qin Yiyan felt that he had been ignored.

Finally, he was the one to break the silence, frowning as he asked: "Where are you going?"

"To attend the wedding of Li Beijue and Baobao, as well as Li Xiao and Xiao Tang."

Liu Xin'ai's tone was calm.

But Qin Yiyan found it inconceivable and asked with a frown: "Haven't they already held weddings?"

Liu Xin'ai thought of the description Jiang Baobao gave over the phone and restated: "To be precise, it should be a gathering of family and friends with a wedding as the theme."

Qin Yiyan could not understand.

A wedding is a wedding.

It should be grand and solemn.

It should also be a symbol of status and position.

However, how the Li Family chose to do things had nothing to do with him.

It was just that...

"Do you intend to go by yourself?"

Looking at Qin Yiyan's dissatisfied expression, Liu Xin'ai knew he was bothered by it.

Not wanting to waste time, Liu Xin'ai still patiently explained: "The Li Family isn't holding a grand affair this time, they only invited some friends and family."

That was why she intended to go alone.

"Friends and family?"

Qin Yiyan felt resentful inside, and he couldn't help but say sourly: "Then... your old lover will definitely be going?"

Whenever Jiang Chenghao was mentioned, both of them became like hedgehogs.

The difference was that one hedgehog took the initiative to attack.

The other, however, was passively pricked into the shape of a hedgehog.

Liu Xin'ai felt exhausted, but she still had to continue explaining.

"You don't need to probe me; Jiang Chenghao and I have long since had no contact, and I am very clear about my own status, but everyone is in the same circle,

it is hard to have absolutely no contact. I have already tried my best to avoid it; if you are still bothered, there is nothing I can do."
