CHAPTER 1320: CHAPTER 1321: [SPECIAL EPISODE] THE WEDDING (PART 55)

Chongchong nodded and naturally turned her face to look at Andre beside her, meeting the man’s gentle gaze as soon as she turned.

With a smile, she reached out her hand and clasped his fingers.

The man immediately closed his fingers, wrapping her small hand in his palm.

Everyone turned to look at their beloved; Gu Shi gently swirled his glass, looking in Leng Qianyu’s direction.

The man wasn’t looking at his phone anymore. Instead, he was bent over, fiddling with a sprout at his feet, lost in thought...

With her eyelashes lowered, she raised the glass to her lips and downed most of it in one go.

Everyone was lost in their own thoughts and didn’t notice her.

Leng Zirui turned to Huangfu Ao, "Everyone has spoken. General Huangfu, don’t you have anything to say?"

"Me?" Huangfu Ao mused for a moment, "I don’t really know what to say. I just hope you young ones... don’t miss out on your loved ones."

Back then, due to a misunderstanding, he and the lady duke were separated for over twenty years.

Fortunately, fate brought them back together.

However, twenty years of youth, the best times wasted, always feels regrettable in hindsight.

"Did you hear that?" Shen Yizhou glanced at his grandson, "Xiaoting, you should hurry up too. Take a look at Xiaojue, Nanke... When will you let me hold my great-grandchild?"

"Exactly, Yunting, you should hurry up, right?" Leng Qianfan chuckled.

"What are you laughing about?" Xu Xia glared at him. "You haven’t even sorted out your own matters yet!"

"Grandma, why are you bringing me up now? Can’t I focus on my career first?"

"Do you know what ’family before career’ means? It implies you establish a family before your career."

"No rush, no rush." Leng Qianfan lightly shook the grass in his hand, "I should at least let a few of my older siblings go first! A gentleman doesn’t steal someone else’s thunder; we have an order of seniority! If you want to urge, urge Brother Xiaoqi first!"

Xu Xia immediately turned to find Huangfu Qi, looking around but not seeing him.

"Where’s Xiaoqi? I just saw him, where did he go?"

Chu Le just laughed.

"As soon as you mentioned marriage, he left."

Xu Xia turned around and indeed saw a lone figure strolling lazily along the lakeside, unmistakably Huangfu Qi.

"That brat!"

"Just leave him be!" Leng Zirui laughed and waved his hand, "Don’t mind his current smugness. Sooner or later, a girl will fall from the heavens and tame your monster! You elders shouldn’t keep bringing up marriage. Weren’t you just as carefree when you were young? Why meddle with the youngsters now? Kids have their own blessings, seize the day, drink for today. Tonight, we’re not leaving until we’re drunk!"

Everyone continued eating and drinking, and unknowingly it was already late at night.

Guoguo was asleep, nestled in Gan Tang’s arms, while Gan Tang sat on the grass, nodding off repeatedly.

"These two little ones," Leng Xiaoye laughed as she walked over, "Xiaotang, come on, spend the night with Grandma."

Situ Nanke picked up Guoguo, and Huangfu Yaoyang came over willingly to pick up Gan Tang.

The two couples took away the two children, and the people sitting around the bonfire also stood up one by one, partnering up to return to their rooms or leaving individually to find a place for private chats or strolls.

Leng Qianfan looked at Gu Shi drinking by the small table, then walked over and gave Leng Qianyu, who was busy with his phone, a light tap.

"Brother Qianyu, Sister Lele and I have something to do. We’re counting on you to look after Chongchong."
