The Self-cultivation of Omega Running with the Ball
Chapter 149 Extra 2 Wedding
After careful consideration, the couple decided to choose the Banbury family's ancestral castle as the wedding venue. Unlike those open tourist attractions, the castle has been carefully repaired and preserved, but it has never been open to people other than family members.
They do not plan to spend huge amounts of money on a world-renowned wedding like some celebrities do, but prefer to invite relatives and friends to witness this important moment together.
In addition, Wen Qiu also proposed something. He wanted to cover half of the wedding expenses with the money he earned from filming "From the Depths".
This is not a small amount of money. The box office has exceeded 10 billion before the movie is completely taken off the screen, not to mention the revenue from future overseas releases.
In addition to the recognition the film itself received, the money was the thing that made Wen Qiu happiest. According to the profit sharing agreed upon in the previous contract, he expected to bring about 3 million yuan in profit to Pei Du - perhaps not a big number for Pei Du, but of great significance to him.
Wen Qiu has never forgotten what Pei Du said to him when he was busy trying to attract investment and lying on the hospital bed with a fever. He said he was willing to invest in him, not out of emotion, but because he understood and recognized his ability. "I am willing to invest in you because I believe you can bring me rich returns."
Later, he suffered a lot while filming the movie and encountered many difficulties. Every time he was pushed to the limit and wanted to give up, Wen Qiu would think of this sentence. Sometimes he felt that his heart was a furnace, and it would glow, heat and emit energy just by filling it with faith, and his faith was to prove it to Pei Du.
Now he has achieved it. He is no longer a canary that needs to be raised with money, but another pillar of the family. If Mr. Pei really falls into poverty one day, Wen Qiu will also have the confidence to support this family.
It was with this in mind that he insisted on paying for the wedding equally.
Pei Du understood why he had such an obsession, and sometimes he couldn't help but feel sad. He readily agreed to Wen Qiu's proposal, and put it into practice in his life. For example, today he bought a huge cake and went home, and deliberately said: "I originally wanted to buy a small one, but when I thought about how much money Qiu Qiu made for me, I couldn't help but buy the biggest one."
For example, on a weekday morning, Pei Du would lean on the bed with his pajamas half-open, and said lazily: "Oh, I don't want to go to work, so I might as well quit. Qiuqiu can support me anyway..."
Wen Qiu accepted all of his exaggerated acting skills and purposeful praise and enjoyed it very much. If he had a tail, it would definitely wag it happily.
Even Wen Zhiyao couldn't stand them anymore, and secretly said to Lan Ze: "Have you seen that emoticon? The one with people clapping and cats dancing wildly on the sofa?"
In this way, with the intensive preparations, the details of the wedding were gradually perfected and the date was approaching day by day.
Wen Qiu and Pei Du took their children to England in advance, tried on tailor-made dresses, finalized the layout and arrangements for the event, and met with people in their social circle.
The moment they set foot on British soil, a piece of news naturally spread like wildfire - the illegitimate son of the Banbury family is back! And it is said that he has hooked up with a local tycoon and is preparing to get married in the castle!
Those nobles who were too arrogant, clinging to their bloodline which had been diluted for countless generations, were full of prejudice against the nouveau riche in their eyes, and naturally regarded this matter as a joke. Even some family members were disdainful in the beginning.
To be honest, when Wen Qiu returned to England five years ago, he was quickly accepted by his family, in part because of Wen Jierui's persistence, but more because he was gentle and harmless, had a face that could embellish the family's reputation, and was engaged in elegant art that was not competitive with the world.
No one really takes this illegitimate child seriously. Those ALPHAs who claim to be noble will even use ambiguous eyes and frivolous attitudes to secretly comment on this OMEGA who is related to them by blood.
This arrogance continued until the owner, Leona, received the guest with the highest standards, and the attendees would never forget what happened that day.
Their unfortunate angel, the beautiful and pitiful Amber, is back. Look, he is still so lovable, and even the meanest lady can't help but shed tears of sympathy when she hears about his experience. But after not seeing him for a year, his temperament has changed a lot. He is no longer as melancholy and cold as before, and he is not as carefully dressed as before. However, when he turns around to look at the people behind him, his face shows a bright smile that they have never seen before.
The Alpha that he dragged in was far from the nouveau riche they had imagined. His height and appearance alone made the gentlemen present feel a sense of crisis, not to mention his aura that could not be ignored, which made all the Alphas subconsciously tense their bodies - if you must say it, the feeling was like a lion entering the territory of a wolf.
So their moon-like beautiful Amber was held hand by such a dazzling sun and entered the banquet hall together. At that moment, all eyes were cast over, but they seemed not to care and continued to talk and laugh.
"Oh my God! Amber, is this your husband? What a handsome Alpha!" A gorgeously dressed lady took the initiative to greet him, "I thought you would find a rich husband, but I didn't expect you to choose true love!"
"Thank you for your blessing, Mrs. Morrison," Wen Qiu nodded and smiled at her, "I have indeed found true love - even if my husband is not worth billions, I love him very much."
Pei Du found it interesting because the expression on Wen Qiu's face at the moment was something he had never seen before, a smile that could be commonly known as "green tea". Presumably, during his four years in England, he had become accustomed to this kind of difficulty and knew how to fight back.
Billions of dollars in assets... Mrs. Morrison's smile froze for a moment, and suddenly she caught a glimpse of something, then she smiled and held Wen Qiu's hand, "Oh, so this is your engagement ring? It's really... very design-conscious."
The couple rings they wore were the engagement rings that had special meaning to them back then.
"It was my negligence," Wen Qiu smiled and pulled her hand back, "My husband did give me an Eternal Blue, but I accidentally lost it."
"Eternal Blue?" Mrs. Morrison certainly remembered the blue diamond ring that was auctioned for 3 million yuan, but how could it be lost? Distrust flashed in her fox-like eyes, "That's really a pity..." "It doesn't matter," Pei Du put his arm around Wen Qiu's waist and said politely, "It's lost, and there will be better ones in the future."
Wen Qiu didn't care about things like diamonds, nor did he pay attention to the jewelry for the wedding, but Pei Du still prepared the best for him, which is of course a basic quality of a husband.
The diamonds on the wedding rings were taken from two 17th-century crowns, belonging to the former king and queen. After revolutions and wars, the fate of the two diamonds has been closely intertwined since the day they were mined. Their value can no longer be measured by simple money. Before long, Mrs. Morrison will probably be surprised to see the true appearance of the rings in the news.
"Old Pei! And Amber, long time no see!" At this time, a hearty laugh came, interrupting their friendly exchange. The person who came was dressed in a trendy outfit, and it turned out to be Qiao Yi, an old friend who had met in Yan City before.
The three of them reunited in the UK and inevitably exchanged pleasantries. Soon, Leona, wearing an elegant dress, came to greet them personally and introduced Pei Du to the family members.
Qiao Yi is a loudmouth with a wide range of friends. His friends are either rich or noble. Seeing him getting along well with Pei Du, someone soon came up to him and asked, "Who is that black-haired Alpha? Why does Leona think so highly of him?"
"Haha, you don't know?" Qiao Yi smiled and waved his hands, "Whose company do you think is about to become the Asian regional general agent of Banbury's luxury goods and cosmetics brands? Who do you think is making me not even dare to pursue Amber?"
"What? It's him!" Some people who knew the inside story covered their mouths in surprise.
Luxury goods and cosmetics are the two industries that the Banbury family relies on for their livelihood. They have a long history and excellent quality. However, due to the arrogance and old-fashionedness of the operators, the brand influence has always been limited to the European market.
Nowadays, noble titles are not as profitable as they used to be. In order to maintain their self-esteem and extravagant lifestyle, the money of the rich is becoming increasingly tight. In addition, the European debt crisis and the Brexit crisis in recent years have led to a very bad economy. Leona often feels the urgency of eating up all the resources.
Therefore, this cooperation is like a blessing from heaven to save them from danger. With the influence of Peiyuan Group and the vast Asian market behind it, it is entirely possible to foresee considerable revenue in the future. And as a gift to express sincerity, the benefits that Pei Du gave up in the contract are so generous that it is unimaginable.
Other families heard about this pie that fell from the sky and were envious. But today they found out that the actual person in charge of Peiyuan Group was the extremely superior ALPHA brought back by Amber.
The looks from those who were looking at him suddenly changed. Someone immediately took the initiative to step forward and looked for an opportunity. He changed his previous cold attitude and politely said to Pei Du, "Excuse me, sir, I haven't greeted your name yet?"
Pei Du looked him over and recognized him as one of the people who had gossiped about Wen Qiu behind his back. So he didn't even shake hands with him, but just replied calmly, "Pei Du."
He doesn't have an English name, not even when he was studying in the United States. No matter where he goes, others always have to adapt to him.
"Oh, it's Mr. Pei." The man's pronunciation was very awkward.
Calling the wrong name was very rude, so Pei Du just casually responded to his greeting and concentrated on getting food for Wen Qiu, responding to his arrogance with an even higher level of arrogance.
Throughout the welcome dinner, he undoubtedly left a deep impression on everyone present. He went from an insignificant upstart to a cold, arrogant, and unapproachable mysterious oriental tycoon - of course, except for Wen Qiushi. His meticulous care for his wife and his 100% friendly attitude also made the OMEGAs present couldn't help but look at him sideways (and secretly pinch their husbands).
After the banquet, the two left the magnificent hall and walked along the winding path outside. The evening breeze blew away the atmosphere of decadence and extravagance, leaving only the fresh scent of camellia in the air.
“Haha, did you see the fat guy’s expression just now?” Seeing that there was no one around, Wen Qiu chuckled, “He loves racial discrimination the most. He used to look down on me when he spoke to me before, but just now he actually nodded and bowed to you. Hahaha, it’s so satisfying…”
"As long as the baby is happy." Pei Du smiled faintly, and that gentle smile concealed the coldness between his brows.
You have to know that Wen Qiu has been with this group of people for four years as an illegitimate child. He silently wondered how much grievance and suffering Wen Qiu had endured under the surface glory.
But in the final analysis, it was because I made him unable to stay in the country that he had to live in this place surrounded by tigers and wolves.
"There's actually no need to deal with that group of people. For example, Mrs. Morrison is still using the golden toilet that was passed down from her ancestors." Wen Qiu could see that he was unhappy, so he hugged his arm and said heartlessly, "Sometimes I suspect that their minds are filled with pickles from the last century - what's the point of arguing with a jar of pickles?"
"Well, I know, but I still want to do something," Pei Du hooked his fingers, the night wind blew his hair, covering his eyes that hid the gentle moonlight, "I hope you are not an insignificant person no matter where you are."
Wen Qiu paused, turned to look at him, and suddenly smiled and hooked his finger at him. Pei Du lowered his head slightly and felt a warm wet mark on his cheek. It was Wen Qiu who rewarded him with a kiss and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Pei, you are really worth it."
