Chapter 687 - A Family Gathering
Xiao Luo followed Su Li’s instructions and turned off the bedside lamp. In an instant, the room became pitch-black, but this was only for Su Li. The system had already strengthened Xiao Luo’s body. In this dark environment, his visibility had reached around 50 percent.
Su Li was very familiar with her bedroom, so it was easy for her to reach the side of the bed. Then, she pulled aside the blanket and gently laid it down. She was lying on her side with her back facing Xiao Luo. She was extremely nervous as if a little deer was running around in her chest.
“It seems to be the first time we’ve ever slept in the same bed, doesn’t it?” Xiao Luo leaned over and hugged her from behind, with his chest pressed tight against her back.
historical
“Yes.”
Su Li’s cheeks were burning as she replied in an almost inaudible voice. She let herself be embraced by the man as her heart raced.
She shrank back and murmured, “Let...let’s rest.”
Seeing Su Li blushed to her ears, Xiao Luo couldn’t help but tease her, “Honey, can you sleep now?”
...
...
Su Li finally became Xiao Luo’s real wife. It was time for him to introduce her to the people around him, such as his younger sister, Xiao Ruyi, and his brother-in-law, Tang Ren. He picked a day and booked a private room at the most luxurious hotel in Xiahai to entertain his family and friends.
The round table was about three meters in diameter. Even if 20 people sat around it, it would not seem crowded.
All kinds of delicacies were placed on the table, which was very exquisitely made. Most of them had been carved by the chefs, and they looked like works of art. Since it was a banquet, naturally, wines were indispensable. There were many bottles of good wine served at the banquet, and each bottle cost several thousands or even tens of thousands. The banquet itself cost at least 200,000 yuan.
But for Xiao Luo, spending more than 200,000 for a gathering of people he held dearly was worth it. He only wanted the best for them.
“Brother, you hid it really well. It turns out that you had already gotten married on the sly a long time ago. Moreover, my sister-in-law is a goddess. My dear god, brother, you’re really awesome!”
Xiao Ruyi was amazed. She used to joke that Xiao Luo should find the nation’s goddess Su Li as his wife, but she did not expect that it would actually come true. It was like a dream to her to sit beside the superstar, Su Li.
“I told you long ago, but you didn’t believe me!” Zhang Dashan said as he sip his drink.
“How can you blame me? Isn’t it all your fault that your credibility is too low?” Xiao Ruyi shot him a look.
“...”
Zhang Dashan was speechless. He could do nothing but lower his head and drink and eat.
“Hello, Sister-in-law. My name is Xiao Ruyi,” Xiao Ruyi left her seat and came to Su Li to introduce herself. “I often listen to your songs and watch your TV shows and movies. You’re my idol!”
“Me...me, too. Sister-in-law. I...I’ll give you a toast.” Tang Ren finally realized what was going on and stood up to toast Su Li.
Su Li smiled politely and greeted Xiao Ruyi and Tang Ren.
“Tang, why are you stuttering?” Zhang Dashan teased.
“I am so...so thrilled that...that I could actually see sister-in-law in the flesh,” Tang Ren answered honestly. A superstar that could only be seen in magazines and on television was right in front of him. He couldn’t find the words to describe how elated he was.
Zhang Dashan scoffed, “F*ck, look at you. How did Ruyi fall for you?”
“So, do you want her to fancy you?”
At this moment, Chai Zhiying, who had been silent all this while, pinched his left ear and said threateningly, “With your looks, as well as your bad habits—always speaking rudely. Only I, Chai Zhiying, am blind to fancy you.”
“Ying, don’t be so mean. Everyone is watching. Save some face for your man. Let go of my ear. Be good!” Zhang Dashan immediately chickened out.
Everyone burst into laughter. Xiao Luo could not help but laugh as well. He never expected Zhang Dashan and Chai Zhiying to be together.
As for the two guys, after he went to Ri Nation, Luo’s Workshop entered into a partnership with Sumir and worked on a range of activities, which improved their relationship. One day, Zhang Dashan drank too much and had sex with Chai Zhiying, so, naturally, they’re together.
Recalling what Zhang Dashan had said to Chai Zhiying when they first met in Jiang City last year, Xiao Luo wanted to say something to make fun of him, but he let it go after thinking about it.
“Lao Xiao, in the past, I didn’t believe in fate at all. Now, I do.”
Zhang Dashan hugged Chai Zhiying and continued, “As for Ying, the more I look at her, the more I feel that she looks like a fairy. Just like the saying: One man’s sh*t is another’s treasure!”
The atmosphere in the room changed slightly.
Chai Zhiying blushed and pinched Zhang Dashan’s waist. “You wretch, what nonsense are you spouting? Shut up! Or I will rip your mouth off!”
How could he be so shameless?
“Zhang Dashan, stop using foul language. There’s an appropriate time and occasion to tell a joke, or it will annoy others.” Xiao Ruyi glared at Zhang Dashan.
“That’s right, that’s right.” Tang Ren nodded his head ceaselessly.
“Brother Shan, you’re awesome. You are really an old hand for that. I’m impressed.” Su Canye could not help but laugh and give him a thumbs-up.
“How vulgar!” Shen Qingyan commented lightly.
Only Su Xiaobei, who couldn’t understand what Zhang Dashan was talking about, sat between Xiao Luo and Su Li as she ate the malt porridge with a spoon. Her mouth was filled with food as she blinked her eyes.
The banquet was filled with laughter.
Xiao Ruyi used WeChat to send a video call to her mother, Hua Heying. She recorded the situation in the room and introduced Su Li to Hua Heying, saying that she was their daughter-in-law.
Su Li was a little embarrassed to see her in-laws on the phone. She politely greeted Hua Heying as “Auntie” and Xiao Zhiyuan as “Uncle”.
“Sister-in-law, how could you still call them Uncle and Auntie. You and my brother have already registered your marriage. You’re now the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. You should call them Dad and Mom the same as my brother.” Xiao Ruyi giggled.
