When the in-laws arrived at the hotel, the second uncle was also going back. He stood up and said, "Xiao Chen, let's have a good drink tomorrow and have a proper chat then."

Then he said to Xu's father, "Tomorrow, A-Wu and Xiao Chen will go to the hotel and go to the market town with the convoy."

Mr. Xu nodded. He had originally planned to drive the Junxing M7 there, but with so many people in the convoy, each car definitely needed to have someone.

Chen Xiao and the others stood up, ready to see him off, just as Xu Wu came up from below. Her second uncle saw her and said, "Ah Wu, your second uncle is going back to the hotel first. Why don't you talk to your father and the others?"

Seeing that his second uncle had left and only the family remained, Cheng, the richest man, felt it was inappropriate to linger. He bid farewell to Xu's father, Chen Xiao, and Xu Wu. He felt that he had already gained a great deal by being able to become a familiar face and make an appearance in front of President Chen.

That evening, Chen Xiao drank quite a bit with Xu's father. Xu Wu had already said several times, "Dad, he can't hold his liquor, don't try to persuade him anymore—" "Dad, if you keep trying to persuade him, I'll get angry—" "Dad, if you keep trying to persuade him, I'll put a no-drinking order on you."

"Alright, I won't try to persuade you anymore." With Xu's father defeated in one move, Chen Xiao was able to escape. Otherwise, if the old man had kept trying to drink with him, he really wouldn't have known how to refuse.

"Xiao Chen, my daughter is good in every way, but she has a very strong personality. You should be more accommodating to her."

Domineering? Xu Wu was indeed a very domineering person, but she was completely obedient to him. Hearing this, she nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I won't fight back or talk back when I'm hit or scolded."

Mr. Xu objected, “This won’t do. We’re grown men, we can’t let women run wild. Let me tell you, if your aunt ever gives me a hard time, I won’t tolerate it. I’ll teach her a lesson she won’t forget.”

Xu Wu knew that her father had also drunk too much, and that he was speaking somewhat recklessly.

"dad--"

"Awu, don't interrupt."

"Dad~!"

"I told you not to interrupt. When men are talking, women should stay to the side."

"Dad, Mom's here. She's been standing at the door for ages."

Mr. Xu was startled and quickly turned around. The person leaning against the door of the restaurant was none other than his wife. He immediately stood up and said, "Didn't you finish eating?"

Mother Xu sneered, "In a moment, you tell me how many eyes Lord Ma has."

Ah—Father Xu's expression changed drastically, and he immediately said to Chen Xiao, "Little Chen, it's very late, hurry up and get some rest."

Chen Xiao realized something was wrong, so he went upstairs with Xu Wu. The Xu family prepared a guest room for him in a proper manner, but it was next to Xu Wu's room. This was just an attempt to cover up the truth. Naturally, he went to Xu Wu's room that night.

"Hey, Ah Wu, why do I hear someone loudly apologizing and admitting their mistake?"

Xu Wu took off her clothes, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and turned back to say, "You must have misheard me. Watch some TV."

Did I hear wrong? Chen Xiao's hearing is still pretty good. He clearly heard someone shouting, "Wife, I was wrong," and something like, "Can we not use the washboard today?"

Uncle Xu, you taught me not to spoil women, but why are you setting a bad example? You're putting yourself in this situation to show me what happens if I don't listen.

The next day, early in the morning.

Chen Xiao felt embarrassed to practice again so early in the morning, because Zhou Dawei was going to the hotel to pick up the bride around 8 o'clock. Chen Xiao and Xu Wu would also go with them to Shenjiaji. Zhou Dawei and Xu Li's wedding was being held at the east end of the town, hosted by the Zhou family.

The Zhou family even built a three-story house for Zhou Dawei's wedding, but it's unlikely that the two of them will actually live in it.

When the two got up, their aunt told them that Mr. and Mrs. Xu had gone to the hotel early in the morning and hadn't woken them up because they were worried that the two hadn't rested well. She said that the wedding procession should have already left for Shenjiaji by now and that the two of them should just have lunch at the Zhou family's house before noon.

Xu Wu was extremely embarrassed and looked at Chen Xiao. The meaning was self-evident: Chen Xiao must have been too rough last night, and the two elders had heard it and were worried that the two of them would get tired.

Chen Xiao scratched his head. "Didn't you say it was a little after 8 o'clock?"

He didn't know that this kind of wedding procession wasn't a wedding ceremony, so the timing wasn't fixed. The procession would arrive in the morning, the bride would be ready, and then they would set off.

The aunt prepared breakfast for the two of them, who quickly ate a little. She then arranged for Xiaoqi and the others to come over before heading towards Shenjiaji. Wedding car convoys usually move slowly because they need to film VCRs and such. If they had been faster, they might have made it in time.

Uncle Xu didn't blame Chen Xiao and Xu Wu for not seeing them in the morning; he just told them to go early so the lunch banquet would start earlier.

As the convoy was preparing to depart, a black Range Rover pulled into the Oriental Hotel. My second uncle looked at the car and said, "Wow, a big Range Rover! This car costs 200 million!"

Mr. Xu glanced at the items, but he was no longer interested. Any one of those things in the house could be exchanged for a large Land Rover. The thousand-year-old wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain that his daughter brought back yesterday was said to be worth 1000 million yuan per plant, and the "Yueshan" iron kettle, which she kept for herself, was also worth several million yuan.

He had been drinking last night and was feeling dizzy and didn't really feel anything. But when he woke up this morning, he broke out in a cold sweat thinking about what his daughter had told him last night. His daughter was actually the CEO of Junxiao Group, and Chen Xiao was actually the boss of Junxiao Group.

When he was in Qingyun, he would go out for a walk and occasionally chat with people about Junxiao Group. Many people said that the boss of Junxiao Group in Jiangzhou was the real super-rich man, and that so-called richest man was nothing compared to him.

But now, this super-rich man has become his son-in-law, and his daughter has become the president of a trillion-dollar company. This is one of the reasons why he didn't dare to wake them up this morning. Xu's father is still thinking about all the nonsense he spouted last night, telling Chen Xiaojiu how to discipline women.

"Oh dear—I hope Mr. Chen won't blame me," Mr. Xu suddenly thought with worry.

The black Range Rover pulled up and stopped. A man jumped out, and Uncle Er was stunned. "Holy crap, Lao Cheng? Where did you borrow another car like this?"

It was probably because Cheng, the richest man in China, provided him with a Maybach S680 that he felt Cheng had connections in this area and knew many luxury car owners.

Before Cheng, the richest man, could speak, someone suddenly came running over, "Mr. Cheng, Mr. Cheng—"

He turned around and looked at her. "You're Xiao Zhang? What's this?"

Uncle Xu noticed that this person was dressed very elegantly and was clearly not an ordinary person, but why did this person look so apprehensive in front of Lao Cheng?

Cheng, the richest man, pointed to Xu's father and second uncle beside him and said, "This is President Xu and the second boss."

The man called Xiao Zhang immediately recognized that these two were people whom Cheng, the richest man, respected greatly, and hurriedly bowed and greeted them, "President Xu, Second Boss, hello to you both!"

His second uncle shook hands with him and asked, "Mr. Zhang?"

"Second Boss, I'm currently in charge of the Oriental Grand Hotel—"

The Oriental Grand Hotel? This is the only four-star hotel in the county. What area are they responsible for here?
When pressed by his second uncle, Mr. Zhang explained that he was the general manager of the Oriental Hotel. This startled his second uncle; this person who had seemed so humble in his presence was actually the general manager of the Oriental Hotel. What had he done to deserve such respect from him?

"Oh dear, Mr. Zhang, my apologies, my apologies. You are a very important person."

Mr. Zhang was incredibly embarrassed. "Brother, even the richest man, Mr. Cheng, treats you with such respect. What kind of person am I?" he thought. "Second Boss, you're joking. What kind of person am I? It's all thanks to Mr. Cheng's guidance that I'm where I am today." He then turned to Mr. Cheng, "It's all thanks to your patronage!"

Cheng, the richest man, patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, Xiao Zhang, keep up the good work. I'm quite pleased with your achievements today. Today is the second boss's daughter's wedding, and I'm rushing to the wedding banquet, so I won't be able to chat with you anymore."

"Second Boss, let's get in the car—Mr. Xu, would you like to ride in my car?"

After thinking for a moment, Mr. Xu realized that they would be drinking there anyway, so it would be best if he didn't drive his own car. He nodded and followed Mr. Cheng into the Range Rover.

Uncle Er, watching Cheng the Richest Man's retreating figure, suddenly felt that this old Cheng was somewhat unusual, perhaps not as ordinary as he had thought. He turned to General Manager Zhang of the Oriental Hotel and asked, "Who is Cheng the Richest Man?"

This stumped Mr. Zhang. Didn't you say he was the richest man? Why are you asking me who he is?
"Second Boss, don't you already know who he is?"

"I know nothing," Uncle said in frustration. "I only know his name is Cheng the Richest Man. I didn't ask what he does."

Mr. Zhang was stunned for a moment, then slowly realized that he had thought Mr. Cheng's name was something like Cheng Shoufu. He was both amused and exasperated. If it were anyone else, he would have definitely made some sarcastic remarks, but this man was the richest man in the county, and he was very polite to him. He quickly explained, "Second Boss, his name is not Cheng Shoufu. His surname is Cheng and his given name is Yuan. He is the richest man in our Qingyun County."

Boom! Uncle's mind went completely blank.

Is he the richest man in Qingyun County? The boss introduced him as "Richest Man Cheng" not because of his name, but because of his name.
Thinking about how he had asked Cheng to work for him, and how he had said that Cheng, the richest man, was a natural-born worker, Uncle Er wanted to slap himself. He wondered if Cheng would blame him. Even after getting into the car, Uncle Er was still thinking about this and felt uneasy.

This richest man is too mischievous, always going to his older brother's house to play the role of a gardener. Otherwise, he wouldn't have considered him a laborer. But then he became happy again. Cheng Yuan, the richest man Cheng, was coming to his daughter's wedding. This was a huge honor! In Shenjiaji, he was going to become famous.

The good news was immediately shared with Xu Xin and Zhou Dawei. Xu Xin was also incredulous to hear that the person he had been drinking and having tea with the day before, and who was constantly criticized by his father, was actually the richest man in the county. It was too dramatic.

When Zhou Dawei, who was in the lead car with Xu Li, saw the news, he was stunned for three seconds. The richest man is attending my wedding? Am I becoming the protagonist of a wish-fulfillment novel? I don't have that kind of face.

The second uncle thought about it more and more on the way, and it became clearer and clearer. This richest man, Cheng, seemed to have a very good relationship with the eldest brother, and he was even trying to curry favor with him. What was there for the eldest brother that he needed to curry favor with? Then the second uncle thought of how the richest man, Cheng, had acted when he met his niece, Xu Wu, yesterday. At that moment, he was as humble as a pawn meeting a queen. It seemed that his niece's status was extraordinary.

He had originally intended to ask yesterday, but his wife called and urged him to come. Today, he was determined to find out what his niece did. Could she be managing a key department in a large company? That was the limit of what he could think of; he would never dare to imagine that his niece was the CEO of Junxiao Group.

When the convoy was halfway through its journey, Uncle Er glanced at the rearview mirror and suddenly froze. That Rolls-Royce Phantom convoy? What a coincidence! Were they also going to Shenjiaji? Or were they just passing by? This was a county road, and there weren't many cars. The Rolls-Royce Phantom convoy didn't overtake, but slowly joined the wedding car convoy, following behind Cheng the Richest Man's Land Rover.

My second uncle thought it was difficult to overtake, but there were several good opportunities to overtake, and the car didn't seem to have any intention of coming forward.

"I'm really sorry, the wedding convoy can't go very fast because the wedding company ahead is filming." Uncle suddenly thought, "If the filming technique were better, they could capture the entire Rolls-Royce Phantom convoy; people would think it's a single convoy, how impressive!" He didn't have the filmer's phone number and couldn't give him a heads-up, so he just hoped the guy would be quick and good at capturing the moment.

Gradually, he noticed that Cheng's car slowed down and then moved aside, allowing the Rolls-Royce Phantom to catch up, with the Range Rover following behind.

Beautiful! It seems that Cheng, the richest man, is also an expert at framing scenes. With his gesture, the Rolls-Royce Phantom looks more like a member of his own fleet. This VCR will be absolutely amazing.

Shenjiaji is a few kilometers from the county road. This town's poverty stems from its isolated location and poor transportation, hindering its development. As the car entered the rural road, Uncle Er thought the Rolls-Royce Phantom should have left; it couldn't possibly be heading to Shenjiaji too.

However, the reality was that the Rolls-Royce Phantom continued to follow slowly behind, maintaining a safe distance and moving steadily forward.

Whose relative is this, coming to Shenjiaji? They're trying to steal my thunder! With this Rolls-Royce Phantom, my Maybach S680 as the lead car is nothing.

The wedding car convoy arrived at the Zhou family home. The bride and groom got out of the cars, and many relatives gathered around to watch, creating a lively scene. At the same time, many people were also talking about it.

"Wow, so many cars, how impressive! I heard that the second son of the Xu family has become rich now, it seems the rumors are true."

"Yeah, look at this car at the front, I don't know its name, but it looks really luxurious."

"Auntie, you don't know, do you? That's called a Maybach, a high-end model from Mercedes-Benz. This car costs several million."

"My God, Mercedes is already very luxurious, and this is a high-end model that costs several million? I've never spent that much money in my entire life."

"Oh my, what's that car at the very back? It looks so tall and long—"

A group of people looked back. Uncle Xu was also a little confused. Why was this Rolls-Royce Phantom following his son-in-law's wedding procession and even stopped? Could it be that it was going to attend the wedding?
He got out of the car and looked at the car behind him with confusion. Then he saw the door of the Rolls-Royce Phantom open, and a red high heel stepped out first. A black skirt hung on the jade-like ankle. After the person got out of the car, his second uncle was dumbfounded.

Ah Wu, my niece?

My niece arrived in a Rolls-Royce Phantom. What's going on?

There was a lot of discussion behind them, and some people recognized the car.

"My God, a Rolls-Royce Phantom! When did Shenjiaji get such a car? You can't even see one in Qingyun County."

"Wow, that beautiful woman is so pretty and has such a great presence!"

"The guy she was holding hands with was also very handsome."

At this moment, a commotion arose in the crowd, and someone suddenly exclaimed, "My God, that looks like Xu Wu, the eldest daughter of the Xu family! It really is her, isn't she here for Zhou Dawei's wedding?"

"It's true. She was already as beautiful as a flower when she was in junior high school, and now she's like an unparalleled queen. She's so elegant and beautiful."

"Second Uncle, why aren't you going in? What are you doing here?" Xu Wu stepped forward, followed by her father and Cheng, the richest man in the family, who stood around her.

"I...Awu, what exactly do you do?" Uncle Er was somewhat incoherent. Xu Xin also came over, looking shocked. Last night at the hotel, he was bragging to his relatives and friends about the Rolls-Royce Phantom he had seen. They even joked that they would die happy if they could ride in it.

Could it be that a deity heard my wish and came to let me sit down, but I haven't lived enough yet?

If this wasn't the explanation, how could Xu Wu's cousin be in this car? Xu's father stepped forward and pulled his second uncle aside, whispering, "A-Wu is the CEO of Junxiao Group—"

After saying that, she pulled him along again, saying that the wedding ceremony inside was about to begin, and that we, the bride's parents, should hurry in.

Uncle Er was completely out of his mind. If it weren't for Xu's father holding him back, he would probably be even more exaggerated than Fan Jin after passing the imperial examination. He kept asking Xu's father and Cheng the richest man, "My niece is the CEO of Junxiao Group?"

Then he pulled Cheng, the richest man in China, aside and asked, "My niece is the CEO of Junxiao Group?"

Cheng, the richest man, smiled ingratiatingly: "Yes, Second Boss, Mr. Xu is the CEO of Junxiao Group."

Uncle Er breathed a sigh of relief and broke free from Xu's father's support: "Eldest brother, it's alright, I can handle it. Over the years, I've seen all kinds of storms. Even if the sky falls and the earth collapses, I remain calm. Besides, this is a good thing, a great thing."

Father Xu nodded approvingly. His younger brother was indeed better than him; he hadn't slept well all night because he was so excited. "Second son, let me tell you something else."

"Tell me—"

"Chen Xiao is the boss of Junxiao Group!"

Thump—Second Uncle collapsed to the ground. Cheng, the richest man, and Xu's father rushed forward to help him up. Just then, they heard someone in the crowd saying, "Hey, isn't that Xu's second son? He's doing well now, but he looks like he has a stroke. He can even trip and fall while walking."

Xu Wu and Chen Xiao walked very slowly because people kept greeting Xu Wu.

"Xu Wu—"

Turning her head, Xu Wu didn't know who the other person was. She nodded; they were from the same hometown and looked somewhat familiar.

"Do you remember me? I was your elementary school classmate. We were in the same class for six years."

Looking at the gaunt young man in front of her, who looked like a drug addict, Xu Wuzhen couldn't recognize him. She smiled slightly, which made him completely infatuated.

"Sorry, I vaguely remember her, but I can't recall her name."

Someone nearby jeered and laughed, "His full name is Xu Sheng, and his nickname is Gou Shengzi—"

Chen Xiao almost laughed; the people in his rural hometown were all quite simple and honest. Someone even asked, "Xu Wu, you've struck it rich! I heard your car must cost several million."

"Is this handsome guy next to you your boyfriend? When are you planning to have your wedding banquet? Don't forget to let us know."

Chen Xiao nodded repeatedly to them, then pulled Xu Wu toward the wedding venue; otherwise, they would be surrounded. Several bodyguards strategically positioned themselves to keep them outside.

Upon seeing this, Cheng, the richest man, rushed over. Chen Xiao whispered, "Xu Wu and I will find a quiet place to stay for a while and won't join in the fun."

Judging from the looks of it, they're going to be there soon, and they're probably going to steal the spotlight from the bride and groom.

As Cheng, the richest man, ran over to find the Zhou family to make arrangements, he also dropped a stack of cash gifts at the gift collection point.

In their rural area, it's still an old custom that elders write down the monetary gifts for guests on a piece of red paper so that they can reciprocate later.

When Cheng, the richest man, put down that stack of money, it shocked the relatives who were keeping accounts. How could there be so much?
"My name is Cheng Yuan—"

Cheng, the richest man, left his name and then quickly went to the Zhou family to arrange a quiet place. He wasn't worried that the bookkeeper would make a mistake; it was only 10 yuan, and he didn't care.

"Cheng Yuan? Is this friend of the Zhou or Xu family really that rich?" the people in charge of recording began to discuss.

"Yes, Xu Li's uncle only spent 1 yuan."

Mr. Xu gave a gift of 10,000 yuan. It wasn't that he was stingy; he just felt that it was just a gift and there was no need to be so ostentatious. If he wanted to give it, he could have done it privately.

Xu Wu was not supposed to give a monetary gift, but she still gave 1 yuan, just like her father, not wanting to make a big fuss.

My second uncle and Xu's father attended the wedding ceremony inside. After the ceremony, the emcee joked, "Look how happy the bride's parents are right now."

Many fathers can't help but shed tears when their daughters get married, so it's rare to see one as happy as the second son of the Xu family. They don't know why Uncle Xu is laughing, and he won't explain, otherwise, if people knew he was daydreaming at his daughter's wedding, wouldn't that be a huge embarrassment?

After the ceremony, the newlyweds met with Xu Wu and Chen Xiao separately.

Xu Li was surprised to find that her cousin was so capable, being the CEO of Junxiao Group. When her father secretly told her this news, she thought he was joking. But when she heard people around her saying that Xu Wu had arrived in a Rolls-Royce Phantom, she came over with Zhou Dawei with some skepticism.

"Cousin—blessings to you both!"

Xu Li glanced at Chen Xiao and said with a smile, "You two will be here soon too—"

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "It'll be soon, it'll be soon!" Xiang Jun had said that once the first phase of Chenjia Island was completed, he would have a grand wedding with all the women on his own turf, without having to worry about public opinion.

She pulled out a card and handed it to Zhou Dawei, saying, "This is what Xu Wu prepared for you. With this card, you can travel anywhere in the world and enjoy free admission to all Junxiao Hotel Group hotels." (End of Chapter)
