Chapter 260: Before the Wedding

Su Yu, Liang Yan and Tang Can shouted in unison, "No!"

"Alright!"

The three of them being happy is enough.

…

On the day before Zhu Xueheng and Liang Lijiang's wedding, Su Yu, Liang Yan and Tang Can's winter‑break tutoring came to an end. The remaining lessons will resume after the seventh day of the new year.

Zhu Xueheng is taking Liang Yan to have a family portrait, and he came early in the morning to pick her up.

Liang Yan held Su Yu's and Tang Can's hands, not really wanting to leave.

"Dad, can I stay one more day? Tomorrow's wedding, I'll go with little sister Xiao Yu and Can Can together!"

Zhu Xueheng's face twisted grimly; he took a deep breath and told himself it was because he had been too busy lately and had neglected his daughter. The daughter didn't stop loving them; she just preferred to play with her little friends.

She is a sensible good child!

After his usual self‑pua, Zhu Xueheng softened his voice and said, "Sweetheart, we're the hosts; we have to take photos together, and the house can't be without you!"

How can a daughter come over like a guest just because her parents are getting married?

Moreover, the three of them haven't even taken a family portrait yet! The last time he called Liang Yan, he asked for her opinion; Liang Yan said they should wait until dad and mom wear nice clothes. Now he has everything ready, but she still wants to wait until tomorrow to go back, so what about the photos for tomorrow's wedding?

"Sweetheart, dad and mom miss you a lot!"

The daughter hasn't been home for over ten days; why doesn't she miss home, nor make a fuss to return?

Liang Yan looked at Su Yu and Tang Can with a hint of reluctance, "Shall I go first then?"

"Yeah, Huo Huo, you're great; we'll see each other again tomorrow!"

【Let's go home; Zhu Xueheng looks like he wants to hit the kid!】

Tang Can, thinking of the snacks Su Yu gave before, felt a craving, "Huo Huo, remember to save us some tasty treats!"

"Okay, I will!"

Liang Yan felt a heavy responsibility; she has to host little sister Xiao Yu and Can Can!

Su Yi watched from the side, truly admiring Zhu Xueheng; his bottom line with his daughter seemed nonexistent—though clearly angry, he was gentle toward her, as if he would never lose his temper with her.

Liang Yan went home, and Su Yu and Tang Can stopped making ice lanterns. The two children went to sleep obediently, recharging for tomorrow's wedding.

Early the next morning, Su Yu and Tang Can finished breakfast, changed clothes, and got into the car with the adults.

"Auntie, isn't she going to Dad and Mom's wedding?"

Tang Can saw Su Yu's parents and elder uncle board the car, but didn't see her own aunt, which seemed odd.

Ji Yan said gently, "Your aunt is waiting for you at the venue; when we go over you'll see her. Your aunt said your dad and mom have also returned."

"Okay! Thanks, Auntie!"

Learning that her aunt would go, Tang Can felt much more at ease.

"Ruanhuohu, why aren't you wearing the matching shoes yet?"

"I'm supposed to wear little white shoes; they get dirty too easily!"

For Zhu Xueheng and Liang Lijiang's wedding, the first choice for flower girl was Liang Yan; the second spot wavered between Tang Can and Su Yu, and finally Tang Can was chosen. Tang Can and Liang Yan have similar builds, making the overall look more harmonious.

But Liang Yan also wanted to team up with her little sister Xiao Yu. Zhu Xueheng, struck by inspiration, assigned the ring‑delivering task to Su Yu.

Su Yu initially didn't want to take the task. Don't think she didn't know; Zhu Xueheng originally intended to give the role to a dog!

Yet she couldn't resist Liang Yan and Tang Can's relentless coaxing; Su Yu eventually agreed.

Su Yu's outfit had to match the bride and groom, not outshine them, so her attire was entirely white, with only the head wreath matching Liang Yan's and Tang Can's, highlighting her presence.

Tang Can, wearing a light‑pink dress, nodded with a hint of distress, "Yeah, the wreath is so beautiful I don't even dare to wear it, afraid I'll break it!"

Their wreaths were made of pale pink, light blue and white blossoms intertwined with pale green vines, looking very pretty. Yet the wreaths had a drawback: they were extremely fragile.

The staff gave them three wreaths in total. After opening them, they let the adults place the wreaths properly, fearing they might break them themselves.

"I wonder if Guoguo's little sister will come? I haven't seen her in ages! We could use the wreaths to tease Guoguo's little sister!"

【Hehe, Guoguo should be able to crawl quickly now, it should be more fun!】

Tang Can nodded, missing the plump arm feel of Guoguo's little sister; Ruanhuohu lately doesn't want her to hug!

Su Yi knew, "Shi Xu will come, Mingmeng won't, and the kids probably won't follow."

He is to openly attend the industry banquet with Ji Yan as a married couple today, feeling extremely excited.

But his daughter seems to have a relapse; when she hears him speak, she completely ignores him!

What else?

Su Yi gave Su Xi a look; Su Xi shook his head. Their younger brother might be too absorbed at work, not noticing anything amiss.

Ji Yan patted Su Yu's head, "Did you both bring enough candy? If you get hungry, eat candy to fill your stomach!"

The candy was specially made by the chef at Ji Yan's request, perfect for replenishing energy. Ji Yan worried Su Yu might get hungry midway.

Su Yu cheerfully said, "All set!"

Tang Can heard Su Yu's voice and nodded, indicating she had brought hers too.

The car drove to the banquet hotel, one of the most expensive member‑only hotels under the Su Clan. Zhu Xueheng and Liang Lijiang's wedding was set in a glass greenhouse the size of a regulation soccer field.

Inside, flowers cultivated early swayed gently under the climate control, welcoming the guests.

As soon as they got out, Su Yu and Tang Can saw Liang Yan behind the glass.

Su Yu and Tang Can shouted as they ran toward Liang Yan, "Huo Huo, we're here!"

Liang Yan, wearing the same pink dress as Tang Can, bounced excitedly in place, "I've asked the chef to make something tasty, come quickly!"

Ji Yan hurriedly followed, also sending a message and location to Tang Tang.

The three kids gathered to eat, and Su Yi moved next to Su Xi, sincerely asking, "Brother, what's up with Xiao Yu? She suddenly ignores me; I really don't like this."

"If you can marry a wife, it means our family's ancestral tomb is smoking green."

Su Yi suddenly understood, "I… I…"

"Yan Yan said there's no need!"

Su Xi's experience raising kids during this time was: "Girls care more about attitude. She can say she doesn't want it, but you must prepare it. Preparing it and she refuses, versus not preparing it and she refuses — those are two different things. Our family isn't short of this little bit of money."

Su Xi always felt that Su Yi had become stingier after waking up, reluctant to even spend money. No proposal, no wedding — landing a wife relied entirely on Ji Yan being blind.

He now suspected his younger brother was a scumbag!

Su Yi, who had handed over all his money to Ji Yan: ……

"Big brother, I don't have money to spend."

Su Xi's aloof, expressionless face showed some cracks. "What did you say? You lent money to someone again?"

"Brother, did you forget? All my money has been handed over to Yan Yan."

Su Xi hadn't forgotten. "What about the money you make taking private commissions online?"

Good night, darlings~
