Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

At six in the afternoon, many vehicles had already gathered outside the gate of Huangsheng Hotel, and guests attending this wedding ceremony arrived one after another.

Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan wore simple clothes and welcomed guests outside; those who did not know the truth might well think they were relatives of the bride and groom responsible for greeting guests.

Liu Mei Qi was also welcoming guests at the door; she wore a high-end formal wedding dress, and without question, tonight she would be the most dazzling woman among the crowd, but at this moment she was not very happy, forcing a smile to welcome the guests.

The reason was none other than that her groom Wang Erhai had still not returned at this moment.

"How come Second Brother still hasn't come back?" Wang Dashan said to Liu Mei Qi at this time: "Sister-in-law, why don't you call him to urge him."

Liu Mei Qi hurriedly said:

"Okay, okay, I'll call him right now."

Actually, she had long wanted to call Wang Erhai to urge him.

Now almost every guest who arrived, besides praising her beauty, would casually ask her a sentence: Where has the groom gone?

Every time she was asked such a sentence, Liu Mei Qi's inner heart would be pricked once.

She certainly could not honestly say that Wang Erhai, that bastard, did not care about her at all, and at this time had run to the sales department of Huangsheng New City to work.

She could only politely make excuses, saying the groom had gone to attend to other matters and would be back shortly.

The phone rang for a long time, but Wang Erhai actually did not answer.

Liu Mei Qi became even angrier and hurriedly called again.

This time, Wang Erhai finally answered.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, his tone was somewhat impatient:

"What's wrong?"

Hearing this dead ghost Wang Erhai's tone, Liu Mei Qi immediately became furious.

She coldly questioned:

"Where the hell did you go? Is this wedding going to happen or not?"

Wang Erhai was stunned; he knew Liu Mei Qi was angry.

But after being stunned, he immediately recovered his calm:

"I am receiving a client; I'll go over later."

Liu Mei Qi became even angrier:

"Wang Erhai, today is our wedding, and now guests have started arriving one after another, yet you, the groom, are not here—is that like something a person would say? Which is more important, work or our wedding?"

Wang Erhai, without a trace of hesitation, righteously said:

"Isn't that nonsense? Of course work is more important!"

Liu Mei Qi was left speechless.

Wang Erhai said again:

"You receive the guests first; after I receive this client, I'll go over!"

Possibly realizing his attitude was too cold, Wang Erhai added:

"Don't be so petty; my parents and your parents are both present, and my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law are also present—they can help receive the guests!"

After saying this, Wang Erhai hung up the phone.

Turning to face the client, he showed a polite and courteous smile.

He entered the state in one second, patiently explaining to the client the various pros and cons of this property development at Huangsheng New City.

"Mr. Liu, the greatest advantage of Huangsheng New City is that it is backed by the County Government; this location will very obviously develop into the center of County Town in the not-too-distant future, buying now is earning now, and moreover there is a public primary school here, making it very convenient for children to attend school..."

On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Liu Mei Qi had tears swirling in her eye sockets, and her nose felt sour.

She endured for a long time before not crying out.

But her expression had already betrayed her.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Seeing Liu Mei Qi on the verge of tears, Wang Dashan hurriedly came over with Du Xiaojuan to ask with concern.

"It's nothing; Erhai said he'll be here shortly."

Liu Mei Qi sniffed her nose, saying it was nothing with her mouth, but anyone who was not blind could see that something big had happened.

"Dashan, call your second brother to urge him."

Du Xiaojuan said this to Wang Dashan at this time.

Her meaning was very clear: at this time Wang Erhai still had not come, which was obviously Wang Erhai's fault.

"Okay, okay, I'll call him right now."

Wang Dashan dialed Wang Erhai's phone number.

"Second Brother, why haven't you come yet? The guests have started entering the venue."

Wang Erhai said: "Eldest Brother, I am receiving a client; I'll go over soon. My place is not far from the hotel; it's a three-minute drive!"

Wang Dashan couldn't help but say:

"Second Brother, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but today is your wedding—how can you leave your wife here and go receive a client yourself?"

Wang Erhai gave a dry laugh:

"Eldest Brother, aren't you and the others presiding over the wedding venue? Today is the opening sales of Huangsheng New City, which is very important to me and to Shanhai Real Estate. Let's not say more; I'll go over soon!"

After saying this, Wang Erhai hung up the phone.

Wang Dashan was also speechless about this, but there was nothing he could do.

He could only hurry to comfort Liu Mei Qi:

"Sister-in-law, Second Brother said he'll be here in a moment. Whatever he did wrong, I apologize to you on his behalf. Don't blame him—he works so hard, isn't it all to give you a better life in the future? Why fuss over such a small matter, okay?"

Du Xiaojuan also comforted Liu Mei Qi:

"The wedding dress you're wearing today is truly beautiful, and your makeup looks great, like a female movie star. Anyway, men are just supporting characters; tonight you're the leading lady. Don't worry about when he comes—as long as he comes, that's enough!"

Liu Mei Qi nodded:

"Mm, I won't fuss with that bastard Wang Erhai. Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, you two are really good people. Will you blame me for stealing your spotlight tonight?"

Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan weren't wearing suits and wedding dresses; under Liu Mei Qi's exquisite makeup, they indeed looked dim and lackluster.

But Du Xiaojuan didn't care about this.

"How could we blame you? We're grateful you and Erhai came. We're freeloading off your venue—you've helped us a great deal!"

Du Xiaojuan said with a laugh.

This was the honest truth.

Wang Erhai and Liu Mei Qi had indeed helped them a great deal.

After all, a wedding venue wasn't something you could just freeload onto whenever you wanted.

Just then, Du Jiabao walked over.

"Sister, Mom and Dad want you to come over; they have something to say to you."

Du Xiaojuan was stunned. She knew in her heart that when her parents called her over to talk, nothing good would come of it.

Still, she followed Du Jiabao for a trip.

As expected, when they came to a corner beside the hotel, she saw Du Guoqing and Lin Xiudi.

Du Guoqing opened his mouth with a displeased emotion:

"Wasn't it said that your partner was so poor he had to borrow online loans for the bride price? So why is this wedding so lavish tonight, with so many guests? Doesn't look like someone without money!"

Lin Xiudi said:

"Who are you trying to deceive? Why deceive us? We are your birth parents!"

Du Xiaojuan certainly knew what Du Guoqing and Lin Xiudi were thinking.

She remained expressionless and explained:

"This wedding was paid for by Dashan's second brother. Dashan and I are just freeloading off the venue. Where would we get money for all this?"

Du Guoqing asked coldly:

"How can his second brother earn money, but this big brother of his can't earn any?"

Du Xiaojuan explained:

"His second brother does real estate in the County Town. He's got a head for business and knows how to handle things, so it's normal he can earn money. Dashan works outside, so it's normal he can't earn money."

Lin Xiudi said coldly:

"His second brother is too lacking in human feeling, isn't he? He made money but doesn't support his own big brother."
