Chapter 143

~7 min read 1,254 words

This is all because the Xiao family patriarch, Xiao Shan, had a nephew who returned and reunited with Xiao Shan.

That person was called Xiao Ming.

In the discussion, everyone also learned that the remarkable-looking man who had been receiving guests together with the Xiao family people at the gate was actually the nephew of the Xiao family patriarch, Xiao Shan.

He is today's main character, the uncle of Xiao Junrong.

He had previously gone viral online several times, but these rural folk didn't understand the city's turmoil, so they simply didn't know Xiao Ming.

Soon, everyone learned another inside story!

The groom Xiao Junrong's uncle is extremely wealthy, but no one knows just how wealthy he is.

Being able to have two horse tyrants personally attend his nephew's wedding, invite so many celebrities, and use a helicopter to fetch the bride—just from what this person called Xiao Ming does, one can see he is an existence of extravagant wealth with no peers.

Afterwards, during the drinking session, Xiao Ming, who usually could hold his liquor well, unusually drank too much.

Really, there were too many people coming to toast him; even if it were just water, drinking that much would have filled him up.

Seeing so many big shots giving Xiao Ming face by personally attending the wedding, and hearing through gossip that his identity was not simple, nobody wanted to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they all rushed to toast Xiao Ming.

Compared to this, if such an opportunity were missed, there would be none later.

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Xiao Ming also felt embarrassed to refuse.

Faced with this situation, Xiao Ming revealed a helpless smile.

Sigh, he is getting further and further from a low-key life.

The first to toast him were the bosses of International Trade Jade Capital like Zhao Dequan and others; Zhao Dequan is a famous tycoon in the business world, and upon receiving Xiao Ming's call, he rushed over without a word—this favor, Xiao Ming must remember.

Zhao Dequan came to toast him; he surely couldn't put on airs and refuse to drink, could he?

Afterwards came Wang De An, Luo Jun, and others.

Wang De An had helped a lot in the matter of Xiao Yunzhe seeking Xiao Ming's uncle Xiao Shan; furthermore, Wang De An's wife is also a close friend of Xiao Ming's daughter-in-law Geng Jing Shu.

Amidst these myriad connections, the toasts people offered, he could not help but drink.

As they drank, some guests, seeing Xiao Ming's good attitude, also grew bold and came to toast him.

Xiao Ming was in a good mood, so he drank them all.

During this period, Xiao Ming's mood reached its peak; initially, when he felt life was empty, his three children suddenly came to his side, letting him experience the beauty of familial love, and now, reuniting with his uncle, made him even happier.

Being too happy, he unconsciously overindulged, and before he knew it, he had drunk too much.

Seeing Xiao Ming drink so much, his two daughters took him to the hotel's resting room to rest, as drinking harms the body, and they couldn't bear to see their father drink too much.

After Xiao Ming left, there was no choice; Xiao Yunzhe could only shield his father from drinking.

Basically, all these guests came for Xiao Ming's face; with Xiao Ming absent, they naturally turned their gaze to his son, Xiao Yunzhe.

"Dad, why did you drink so much? Aren't you usually so sensible?" Xiao Yuchun fetched a hangover tea from the attendant, brewed it, and thoughtfully placed it before Xiao Ming.

Xiao Jingrou, meanwhile, thoughtfully massaged Xiao Ming's shoulders, trying to ease his discomfort as much as possible.

"Because Dad is in a good mood," Xiao Ming said with a smile, "Not only have we reunited with you, but I also found your little uncle; our family is finally all together, and I feel especially fulfilled in my heart."

"Now I have no regrets at all; I am happy, extremely happy."

"We've come back, little uncle is also very happy; I've seen him for several days secretly watching you from afar, tears in your eyes," Xiao Jingrou said.

Actually, they are the ones who can best understand the feelings of little uncle and father Xiao Ming.

The three siblings lost their mother early, and their maternal grandmother's family treated them like weeds; although they knew they had a father, they just couldn't find him, and they understood the sorrow of having no relatives nearby.

"Come, let's go back to the hall." After Xiao Ming finished the hangover tea and washed his face, he prepared to return to the banquet: "If I'm not there, who knows how those old things will torment your brother."

Mm, Dad, when you go back, you're not allowed to drink again. Xiao Jingrou and Xiao Yuchun, although they felt sorry for Xiao Ming, could still tell right from wrong; at this moment, Xiao Ming's absence is indeed inappropriate.

I'll do my best!

After Xiao Ming returned to the hall, there was wave after wave of toasts, and Xiao Ming still did not refuse anyone, just as before.

As a result, after an hour, Xiao Ming was completely drunk, and once again Xiao Jingrou and Xiao Yuchun took him back to the resting room.

After Xiao Ming left, the proceedings moved on to another blessing segment.

After the female host exchanged some pleasantries, she invited Xiang Jiangtao onto the stage.

While everyone still didn't understand what was happening, Xiang Jiangtao led two etiquette ladies onto the stage, each holding a tray.

"What's in this tray is a wedding gift from the groom's uncle to this newlywed couple. I think everyone must be very curious about what's inside. Let's witness it together."

Speaking, Xiang Jiangtao lifted the cloth covering the tray.

Only see the host walk over, pick up a large red booklet, open it and glance, then the host exclaimed in surprise: "Good heavens, it's actually a property deed for a villa!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the guests below erupted in an uproar; to give a villa outright at the first gesture—this is too generous, isn't it?

But Xiao Ming's blessings were not limited to these; only see the host one by one picking up the gifts from the tray and displaying them before everyone, then while displaying said: "In the center of Yun Cheng, a 300-square-meter apartment; in Anjin City, a villa worth eighty million..."

Just talking about houses, Xiao Ming gave Xiao Junrong a full six sets, and they are all top-notch.

"Besides, there's also a Lamborghini, a McLaren, a Mercedes..." The host read out a total of ten luxury cars of various brands.

This still isn't over; the host continued in a shocked tone: "Besides, there are also 1,111 gold bars, representing Mr. Xiao Ming's wish for the groom and bride to be a couple for life, united in heart until old age."

This is already enough to shock people; I didn't expect there to be more.

"99,990,000, representing Mr. Xiao Ming's wish for the newlyweds to have long-lasting happiness."

After the host finished speaking, the entire hall remained completely silent for two minutes, after which came a deafening exclamation.

Earlier, everyone had been secretly thinking that since Xiao Ming was so wealthy and had held such a lavish wedding, he would surely give the Xiao Family a lot of money, and give this newlywed couple a lot of money as well.
