Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 685 The Eve of the Wedding

"To be honest, I'm a little envious of Aunt Jia."

Watching Jia Zhangshi's departing figure, they felt the intense and sincere affection between Ximen Lang and Jia Zhangshi, which made them both jealous.

Linking arms with Ximen Lang, Xia Yiyi spoke with a mix of emotion and teasing.

"Really, it's just that Aunt Jia's age isn't right, and your standards are exceptionally high. Otherwise, I would have thought it was the two of you... How could this be? Look how sweet they are, even sweeter than us! What kind of situation is this?!"

Upon hearing Xia Yiyi's words, Bai Ling, who had been holding back her words for a long time, immediately followed suit.

"Now you understand how I feel, right? Let me tell you, at the beginning, I watched them bicker every day! But even they were like that! They were like people who fight in bed and then make up in bed. Isn't that ridiculous!"

The two of them talked back and forth, which made Ximen Lang get anxious.

They immediately enforced family discipline, one in each hand!
He hit and scolded at the same time.

"I'll teach you two to talk nonsense! I'll teach you two to talk nonsense! You're spouting rubbish, talking nonsense, and acting recklessly!"

His exasperated look prompted the two to tease him again.

"See, you're getting angry now? We were right, weren't we? Otherwise, why would you have reacted so strongly?"

Enraged, Ximen Lang really wanted to execute them on the spot!

The situation is at a stalemate.

It's hard to say whose savior it is, but Director Wang, who hasn't appeared for a long time, who is both Ximen Lang's dearest Aunt Wang and Bai Ling's closest elder, makes a dazzling appearance.

He was still so doting, and he immediately said something in a bad mood.

"Look at you all! You're all grown up, yet you still don't know when to speak or act appropriately. It's such a worry for us!"

Then, upon hearing that the conversation had just taken place between Jia Zhangshi and Ximen Lang, they realized that the topic of conversation was the affair between Jia Zhangshi and Ximen Lang.

Director Wang immediately became interested as well.

"To be honest, I actually feel that way too. If this weren't so outrageous, I'd even consider setting them up!"

They teased Ximen Lang so much that he wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

They teased Ximen Lang so much he couldn't take it anymore!
Director Wang then stopped using his supernatural powers and patted Ximen Lang on the shoulder.

"Alright, stop with the pretense in front of me! Let's get down to business. I just heard you two talking about getting married, and I've been waiting for this day! You won't believe me, but look, I've even finished decorating your wedding room! Look at the decorations, the furnishings—it's all the work of a master!"

"It's no exaggeration to say that even the restoration of the Forbidden City didn't have such a grand scale! It's a complete fusion of Chinese and Western styles, bringing together the best of the entire architectural world. So, how about it, are you satisfied?"

As he spoke, Director Wang pulled out a mobile phone and, to Ximen Lang's astonishment, skillfully operated it to display the photos and videos he had taken.

Then, who cared about Aunt Wang playing on her phone?

Ximen Lang, Bai Ling, and Xia Yiyi, who had just been recognized as Director Wang's goddaughter, were all captivated by the magnificent decoration and furnishings.

How to describe it?
Let's put it this way. In order to fix up this wedding room for Ximen Lang, Director Wang used all his connections, using the names of Lao Luo and even Bai Ling and other elders, to invite all the masters he could find!
In terms of area, we made emergency adjustments based on the original plan, and spared no expense to include an area the size of two football fields!
They were a group of unparalleled masters in their respective fields, leading a group of apprentices who worked day and night!
We strive for perfection in every single detail!
So just you wait and see, they'll all be completely silent!

As for Ximen Lang and Bai Ling, they were currently in a state of complete silence.

However, though they remained silent, they were certainly quite satisfied!
Especially when Ximen Lang noticed that Aunt Wang's dark circles were so heavy they could rival those of a panda, and that she looked noticeably thinner and more haggard.

How can one word describe how moving this is?
Following Jia Zhangshi, Ximen Lang felt a deep sense of emotion.

He grasped Director Wang's hand and asked with concern.

"Auntie, you've worked so hard. You're so busy with work, yet you still worry so much about such small things for us. You could have easily delegated these tasks to your subordinates; there's no need for you to do them yourself. Look at you, you've lost so much weight, it breaks my heart!"

It's heartbreaking, absolutely true!
Because he put himself in her shoes, Ximen Lang now truly regarded Director Wang as his aunt.

But this is a minor matter.
"Then you're sorely mistaken! Your wedding has been prepared as a top priority for a long time! Look at the road beneath our feet, and there's still so much to build!"

"It's all because the higher-ups are concentrating resources and giving priority to our Nanluoguxiang! Why is that? Besides benefiting the people of Nanluoguxiang, there's another very important reason: it's for your wedding!"

"After all, it's not enough to just have substance; we also need to take care of appearances! Otherwise, if the outside is dilapidated and everything is inconvenient, we won't look good, will we? This is a huge project, and we can't afford to be careless!"

As for this worry...
"You all call me 'Auntie,' so it's only right that I worry about your weddings! What's the big deal about being tired? As long as you're doing well, no matter how tired I am, it's all worth it!"

Wow, it's gone straight to the engineering level!

Moreover, it's a very important image-building project!
That's impossible to explain!

After all, it's obvious that Ximen Lang's wedding is destined to be recorded in history and attract the attention of both worlds!
At that time, all the prominent figures from both sides who can attend will definitely be there!

Of course, it's nothing for our own people in the Four Nine City World.

But it would be bad if future generations saw something unpleasant!

"So this isn't just your business, it's mine, it's our business, and it's the most important thing of all! Anyway, don't worry about it, leave everything to your Aunt Wang! I guarantee everything will be arranged perfectly, and I'll definitely give you the most perfect wedding!"

Since Director Wang has already said so much, what else can Ximen Lang say?
Of course, we can only accept it as the default and then put more effort into logistics.

After all, the emperor doesn't need starving soldiers.

Besides, he's the dignified Brother Lang!

Therefore, after Director Wang expressed his opinion, Ximen Lang immediately began to instruct Bai Ling and Xia Yiyi.

"No matter what, we must do a good job with the logistics! We can't let Aunt Wang suffer, or anyone else who's been running around helping us with all this and that!"

This move naturally received immediate and reassuring assurances from Bai Ling and Xia Yiyi.

Then, very quickly, very quickly.

Time quickly passed, and the day of Ximen Lang's wedding arrived. (End of Chapter)
