Looking at Gu Xinyi, who was still like a child, Yu Qingyu smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, alright, alright. When you get married, I will definitely design the most beautiful wedding dress for you."

"Thank you, Sister-in-law. Sister-in-law is so kind." Gu Xinyi changed how she addressed her instantly, which made Yu Qingyu feel a bit embarrassed.

Gu Rui, meanwhile, gave Gu Xinyi a big look of encouragement: Well done!

Gu Xinyi proudly lifted her head, showing her disdain.

The two of them planned to hold their wedding in the near future; although the time was a bit short, Yu Qingyu had actually designed the wedding dress long ago—it was just a youthful impulse from a previous period, but now it could finally be put to use.

Their wedding would be held here in the United States, and they did not plan to invite anyone; it would just be the people within their own circle.

Yu Qingyu had no family left, and she did not want to tell Yu Mingcai and those people; ever since she left that home, she had completely severed ties with it.

As for Gu Rui, that was because his family absolutely did not agree to this wedding.

Gu Rui had already spoken to his parents, and his attitude was extremely firm: he would marry no one but Yu Qingyu.

But once his parents learned of Yu Qingyu's age, they certainly would not agree.

Gu Mama was only forty-six or forty-seven years old this year, and Yu Qingyu was only a few years younger than her; how could she possibly become her daughter-in-law?

But Gu Rui had been very opinionated since he was young; once he made up his mind about something, not even ten cows could pull him back.

So, after several failed attempts at persuasion, Gu Rui stopped contacting his parents altogether.

He planned to talk to them after the wedding; by then, the rice would already be cooked, and even if his parents objected, there would be nothing they could do.

Moreover, they did not need financial support from their family now; although their family ran a real estate business in Huaxia, Gu Rui did not want to take it over.

He had things he liked to do himself.

Furthermore, Yu Qingyu was not short on money either, so they would not need to live with his parents in the future.

If nothing unexpected happened, Gu Rui would also choose to settle down in the United States.

He had thought about returning to his home country before, but after meeting Yu Qingyu, he no longer wanted to go back.

Yu Qingyu had once briefly told him about some things regarding her family, so Gu Rui did not want Yu Qingyu to go back to the country and face such frustrating matters again.

Besides, staying far away from home had one benefit: they would not have to face his parents' angry emotions.

In this way, it was better for everyone.

After Zhang Ran finished handling matters in Los Angeles while accompanying Huo Zhiyuan, he returned to New York and prepared to pack up to head back.

But it was at this moment that He Yong walked over and whispered about Yu Qingyu's situation.

Zhang Ran had not given Yu Qingyu any special care, but he had still asked people to look after her a little so that if she encountered any trouble, he could help.

After all, she was the maternal aunt of Zhang Sicheng and the others, and she was the relative Yu Qingwan had recognized the most.

If he could look after her, that was fine.

Hearing that she was getting married, Zhang Ran was stunned for a moment, then felt somewhat happy; he was also happy for this sister-in-law, as it was not an easy thing to find one's happiness at this age.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Ran said, "Go and have someone... never mind, let Sicheng stay in the country."

Zhang Ran had originally thought about calling Zhang Sicheng over to attend the wedding together, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.

He did not dare to put all his eggs in one basket now, and after all, this was the United States, not Huaxia, so it was better to be careful.

Although Zhang Ran could guarantee that even if those people were given a hundred times the courage, they would not dare to strike in the open, it was still better to be safe than sorry.

Zhang Ran said, "Go and make arrangements. I won't be heading back just yet; I'll wait until after I attend her wedding."

He Yong nodded to show he understood and then went out.

After Zhang Siyan and the others returned, Zhang Ran told them a little about the matter: "After all, she is your maternal aunt and she hasn't done anything to wrong your mother. We can say we are her only relatives now, so we will go and attend her wedding."

Zhang Siyan did not have much of a feeling toward Yu Qingyu, but hearing Zhang Ran say this, she also nodded to show she understood.

As for Liu Lu, she was indifferent.

"Dad, what gifts should we prepare? How much should the cash gift be?" Liu Lu's question was more practical.

However, this was not being mercenary; after all, for a family like theirs, there was no need to be mercenary, and it was just a matter of social etiquette.

Now, these matters of the Zhang Family were all considered to be handled by Liu Lu.

Zhang Ran thought for a moment and said, "For the cash gift, let's make it 88,800. Each of you prepare a gift, and have the two little ones prepare a small gift as well."

Since he was going this time, as a family relative, he would not be too stingy.

Although 88,800 was a very small amount of money to him, generally speaking, it was not a small sum.

Moreover, their main purpose this time was to offer blessings, and Yu Qingyu was not short on money now.

Taylor had given her quite a few bonuses; aside from Yu Qingyu's personal efforts, most of it was actually at Zhang Ran's suggestion.

Yu Qingyu actually understood this point, but she did not refuse such kindness from her brother-in-law.

Yu Qingyu had actually struggled for a long time over whether or not to invite Zhang Ran, because she knew Zhang Ran had come to the United States.

After all, there had been such big news during this period that almost every financial news outlet had reported on Zhang Ran.

It would be hard not to know.

But in the end, she still did not tell him, because Yu Qingyu did not know if Zhang Ran's family was willing to acknowledge her as a relative.

It was better not to say anything, so as not to make things difficult for Zhang Ran's family and to avoid embarrassment for herself.

Yu Qingyu's wedding was in five days; everything here in the United States would follow Huaxia customs, which was actually a unique kind of wedding.

This time, they were holding the wedding in secret; after all, apart from their friends, no other relatives had been notified.

Besides the reason regarding Gu Rui's parents, Gu Rui had actually considered Yu Qingyu's feelings.

He knew that Yu Qingyu had no family or relatives coming to the wedding, so he did not plan to invite any either.

The wedding preparations were going very smoothly; now, Yu Qingyu's circle was basically filled with Hanfu enthusiasts, and they were all very much looking forward to such a unique wedding in the United States.

So, everyone worked together, and the progress was quite fast.

Plus, neither of them was short on money, so the speed was beyond question, and Gu Rui had even specifically invited a chef from Huaxia to prepare the banquet.

This wedding was entirely in the Huaxia style, with no mixing; even the wedding banquet was a Huaxia-style banquet, without any form of buffet or the like.

Looking at Gu Xinyi, who was still like a child, Yu Qingyu smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, alright, alright. When you get married, I will definitely design the most beautiful wedding dress for you."

"Thank you, sister-in-law, sister-in-law is so kind." Gu Xinyi changed her address instantly, which made Yu Qingyu feel a bit embarrassed.

Gu Xinyi proudly lifted her chin, showing her disdain.

The two were preparing to hold their wedding in the near future; although the time was a bit short, Yu Qingyu had actually designed her wedding dress long ago, a remnant of youthful infatuation from a previous period, which could now finally be put to use.

Their wedding would be held here in the United States, and they didn't plan to invite anyone, just people from their own circle.

Gu Mama was only forty-six or forty-seven years old this year, and Yu Qingyu was only a few years younger than her; how could she become her daughter-in-law?

But Gu Rui had been strong-willed since he was young; once he made up his mind about something, not even ten cows could pull him back.

So, after several failed attempts at persuasion, Gu Rui stopped contacting his parents altogether.

He planned to talk about it after they were married; by then, the rice would already be cooked, and even if his parents opposed it, there would be nothing they could do.

After all, she was the aunt of Zhang Sicheng and the others, and the relative whom Yu Qingwan had recognized the most.

If he could look after her, that was fine too.

Hearing that she was getting married, Zhang Ran was stunned for a moment, then felt quite happy; he was glad for this sister-in-law, as finding her own happiness at this age was no easy feat.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Ran said, "Go and have someone bring... never mind, let Sicheng stay in the country."

Although Zhang Ran could guarantee that even if those people were given a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to make a move in the open, it was still better to be safe.

He Yong nodded to show he understood, then went out.
