Chapter 662: Your Good Fortune Is Still Ahead
"Hey~ why are you looking at me like that? Shouldn't you be congratulating me?"
Wang Yanlin looked at Bai Liang's strange expression, quite baffled.
Wait, is a bro getting married really such a weird thing?
Bai Liang: "Congrats, congrats. It's just, don't you feel what you said is a bit off? Did you buy insurance?"
"Insurance? My wife bought some for me." Wang Yanlin clearly still hadn't caught on for the moment — why on earth was he suddenly being told to buy insurance?
By then, Unlike Ni Ni and Zhao Liying, who had gotten out of the car together, could no longer hold it in.
Little Sister Zhao had also worked with Wang Yanlin on "Princess Agents," so while they weren't super close, they'd chatted plenty of times.
So she held back her laughter and took the initiative to spell it out: "Wishing you a happy newlywed life, but what you just said — if you put it in a TV drama or movie, it'd be a classic setup."
Before she could finish, Wang Yanlin got it!
Damn, he was setting a flag on himself!
Those contestants who say things like "after this battle, I'll go back and get married" — not a single one of them actually made it back to get married.
Way too damn inauspicious!
*Slap! *
This bro was a real straight-shooter — he gave himself a slap right on the mouth, then immediately switched his line: "I'm getting married in two months, Immortal, you free to be my best man?"
"I'm definitely free!"
An invitation like this, Bai Liang obviously wouldn't refuse — if his schedule really was full, he'd just adjust it~
Giving Sister Yanzi a heads-up two months ahead, he'd be able to free up the time one way or another.
But he turned his head and casually asked: "Did you arrange one of those activities where you toss the bridesmaids into the water?"
Hearing this out of nowhere, Wang Yanlin still didn't catch on and instinctively replied: "That could be arranged~"
The moment those words left his mouth, the looks the two sisters beside him gave him turned strange~
Ohohoho, so this kid is actually that kind of guy?!
Wang Yanlin, who finally caught on again:... Crap, he's become a pervert~
What Bai Liang was talking about was that big internet uproar from a few years back — Liu Yan was a bridesmaid for Bao Beier and her husband, and a bunch of people tried to throw her into the pool.
Those involved, including the bride and groom, got absolutely savaged online.
Wang Yanlin hurriedly waved his hands: "Cough cough, that really isn't happening! Don't mess with me, Immortal!"
Bai Liang: Hehe~
"We're good bros, how could I mess with you? Speaking of which, will you be nervous for your first marriage?"
The way he asked that felt off again. Wang Yanlin had finally learned his lesson — once bitten, twice shy — and after two seconds of deliberation, said: "I don't know~"
His answer was pretty honest — after all, he'd really never been married; how could he know what it feels like without experiencing it?
Bai Liang's eyes lit up: "Then you've come to the right person! When it comes to this stuff, I do know a little~"
"How the hell do you know a little bit of everything?"
Honestly, in other areas, Wang Yanlin would absolutely believe his "jack-of-all-trades" good bro really knew his stuff — but you claiming you even know what getting married feels like? That's just too much bullshit.
But he quickly thought of a blind spot, frowning: "Immortal, you didn't count filming and getting married on variety shows as experience, right? That's not the same thing, yo!"
"How could I~ Anyway, today the two of us can just chill a bit and that'll be that!"
"Sure, let's chat."
The two of them chatting about marriage here did manage to sting the two currently unmarried sisters beside them.
They're all women in their thirties — hearing this kind of topic still makes them frown.
After all, every holiday they're guaranteed to get nagged by family.
But in the female celebrity business, marrying and having kids late is pretty common — the more popular you are, the more so.
People like Big Mi Mi and Liu Shishi who married that early are rare exceptions.
Of course, Big Mi Mi married early and divorced early — she's always a step ahead in everything, no wonder she's one of the most present and longest-running stars among the post-85 flowers.
"Take me along for drinks tonight too, I'm quite interested in this topic!" Unlike Ni Ni spoke up at this point, applying to join the activity.
"You want to get married too?"
Hearing this, Unlike Ni Ni couldn't help but shoot Bai Liang a look. "Not in that much of a rush, depends on fate I guess, I'll try my best to work at it."
Her words once again left Wang Yanlin beside her confused.
Is it leaving it to fate, or working harder?
How is that not a contradiction?
"I think you'll definitely get what you wish for — your good fortune is still ahead~" Bai Liang gave his answer after a brief moment of thought.
Unlike Ni Ni's eyes lit up — oho, is this little punk hinting at her?
Should she go knock on his door tonight tonight... She'd specifically packed a stepmother dress in her suitcase, super sexy.
"Why though?" Little Sister Zhao suddenly asked, effectively breaking the spell.
Good question!
Bai Liang: "Unlike Ni Ni's eight characters are great."
"Eight characters?"
"Her birthday is August 8, 1988 — that's super auspicious!"
"Ah, this..."
Little Sister Zhao could barely hold it in, the corners of her mouth curving into a smile, then nodding repeatedly. "Indeed auspicious! Envious~"
And Wang Yanlin, this guy, actually piped up: "Unlike Ni Ni's fate holds wealth!"
Unlike Ni Ni:... You bastard!
She thought it was a hint, and instead he hit her with this?
But what does this have to do with the eight characters? Is it the real kind of eight characters?
And does getting rich have a direct connection to marriage fate? She's pretty well-off right now, isn't she? Yet she's been longing for this for so long and still can't get it.
Although she felt a bit played, she couldn't bring herself to be angry—after all, Bai Liang did remember her birthday.
Sister Xiao Zhao: How could anyone not remember that? I've already remembered it!
Wang Yanlin: Same here.
Bai Liang had still somewhat underestimated the impact of the topic of "marriage."
Sure enough, he had just arrived at his suite and hadn't even had time to settle his luggage when someone knocked on the door.
He had originally thought it was Unlike Ni Ni unable to hold back and wanting to give him some new task, but when he opened the door, it was Sister Xiao Zhao.
"It's not time to eat yet, is it?"
"You only know how to eat. I came to help you pack and organize your things. Could this young master possibly handle it? You're probably almost unable to take care of yourself."
That remark made no sense—Bai Liang wasn't without an assistant.
But clearly, his assistant was about to be temporarily unemployed.
Because after Sister Xiao Zhao glared at him and came inside, she immediately took off the rubber band on her wrist, gathered her hair, and tied it into a simple ponytail.
Then she just went ahead and helped him organize his luggage, sorting things into categories, hanging clothes and such in the wardrobe.
The way she looked so "virtuous in domestic matters" made it obvious she was quite out of practice—she probably hadn't done this kind of work herself in a long time either.
