Vol 2 Chapter 361: , preparations before the wedding
361,
You can imagine what their expressions were like when we rushed abroad and appeared in front of my parents.
That was almost like saying "Holy shit, they came here."
Seeing this, my father asked us with a puzzled expression: "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be waiting at home to arrange your engagement ceremony?"
Su Xi smiled and answered them: "The engagement ceremony has been arranged perfectly. It only needs you two to join us."
Obviously he kept scolding me on the way, and my parents were in every good place in his mind. But in front of these two people, to **** with it, these two people are also his father-in-law and mother-in-law, legally speaking. His parents, so they still have to give each other some face when they meet.
When my father heard this, he sighed and said, "I can't go. I'm very busy recently."
“It won’t delay you too long. Our engagement ceremony is on the cruise ship, so you can participate here without having to return home.”
Not only that, the guests who sent the invitations also had to be moved here to hold the event. This was the most laborious thing in the semester, but none of those people complained.
After all, everyone who will come will need to rely on the Su family in the future. Compared with this, mere air tickets and flying abroad to participate are simply irrelevant. What's more, the cruise ship, catering and entertainment equipment held by our ceremony this time are extremely luxurious and popular. Everyone invited participates for free. Even if it is treated as a vacation, the money saved is much cheaper than a mere plane ticket.
People in the upper class are actually much more pragmatic than others.
After hearing this, my father was speechless for a while, but he still insisted: "It's still not possible. To attend your ceremony, you have to attend at least a whole day, right? We can't spare a whole day to do such a thing in the near future. Besides, , you are not officially married, you are just engaged, not to mention you have already been engaged once before, this time it is just a replacement."
That's right. After all, domestic tradition does not pay much attention to engagement, let alone our ordinary families.
However, Su Xi’s expectations and preparations for this engagement are not to the extent that she can give up just because my parents said this.
There are stubborn people on both sides, and all that remains is to look at their respective strengths and cards.
"Are those overseas speeches really that important? You can even ignore your own daughter?"
Su Xi seemed to want to preach before showing her trump card.
"What do you mean by not caring about your own daughter? Why are we working so hard? Isn't it for this family and for her?"
"I think you just can't give up your reputation now, right?" Su Xi sighed and said, "Now Hao Siyu just goes to a performance and earns more money than the two of you combined in a lifetime, while Hao Jingqi is studying outside. My second uncle’s company that I will take over is also making money every day. They no longer need your care. If you are really doing it for the good of the family, how about you just stay at home and take care of yourself in the future? "
“What do you mean by that?”
Seeing my father getting angry, my mother quickly patted him on the back, comforted him for a while and then said to Su Xi: "You can't say that. We have agreed to give this speech a long time ago. It's okay to suddenly break the promise." Not so good, isn’t it?”
"You said you agreed a long time ago... You didn't refuse when we told you about the time for the engagement ceremony, right? Were you ready to break the appointment at that time? Or did you agree to someone else after that? Right?" Su Xi sighed unhappily and said, "I think you simply chose to give up the one that would cause less harm after rejection, or choose the one with higher benefits."
"How...how can you talk like this? Hao Siyu is also our daughter after all. If this is a formal wedding, we will definitely attend, but now it is not just an engagement."
Even my mother said this. She neither refuted nor corrected Su Xi’s words. It seemed that she was right.
These two people used to be like this. As long as they are not blamed at home, they are enough. In fact, they are at all ... even if this 'other' includes family members, they all dismiss them.
I couldn't help gritting my teeth when I thought of this, and then said angrily: "What if I say that this time we are officially married?"
"what are you saying…"
Staring at my mother's stunned expression, I told her: "I'm not lying. This time the engagement ceremony will be followed immediately by the wedding, which will be held within one day. Originally, the engagement was a scene that Su Xi rearranged to make up for what happened before. , the real purpose is to get married.”
When my father heard this, he glared at me and said, "Don't be ridiculous. We didn't announce the wedding in advance at all. Please postpone it until later."
"I don't!" I replied stubbornly, "Originally you agreed to the engagement ceremony, but didn't you refuse to participate in the end? So what's the point of me changing the date of the ceremony? In short, either you will participate, or in the future... in the future you will also Don’t see me anymore, I’ll do what I say!”
"Not only Hao Siyu and I, but also little Su Quan," Su Xi interrupted at this time, "Originally I didn't want to announce this matter so early, but it won't work if I don't announce it now. Hao Siyu already 'has it', So I have no other choice.”
Hearing this, my mother smiled and said, "Isn't it? Still using this trick? It's too old-fashioned..."
As soon as she said this, she stopped as if someone suddenly stepped on her neck.
Because Su Xi took out something in front of them at this moment, and that thing was one of the pregnancy test sticks that my mother had personally handed to me...
The scale above shows that she is clearly pregnant.
Both the mother and the father covered their faces with their hands at the same time. After a while, the father said: "I know, I will definitely be there this time. You kid... just wait for me to talk to you."
Anyway, we finally settled the matter on my parents' side.
When we left the hotel where they were staying and got into the rented car, I immediately grabbed Su Xi by the collar and said, "You guys, when did you take the test?"
"Just before we came, I had already thought that if we were not prepared this time, we would not be able to convince those two stubborn people."
Hearing this, I couldn't help holding my head and wailing: "Wow... I didn't expect to get pregnant so easily... It's too much..."
“Don’t worry, it’s fake.”
"What?"
Before I could figure it out, Su Xi had already started to explain: "To be honest, the pregnancy test stick is not 100% accurate, and it is quite easy to use it to make a fake."
“…But how can you be 100% sure it’s fake? We’ve never been to the hospital.”
“The results of the pregnancy test were faked by me myself. I didn’t follow you to the toilet... Besides, I took birth control measures.”
At this moment, Chen Li's voice suddenly came from the back seat of the car and said: "So you two have already done it..."
I was startled immediately and turned around and asked, "Why are you here?"
Chen Li frowned and replied: "You said you would stop by New York City to buy and eat authentic American burgers after the show, so you took me with you, and because it was inconvenient to take me to participate in the negotiation with my parents, you let me stay in the back of the car. Are you waiting?"
After saying this, I thought that there is indeed such a thing.
“…I’ve always wanted to ask you, does that kind of thing… hurt the first time?”
“I won’t answer your question even to death.”
I crossed my hands and looked at the car windshield in front of me in anger.
I didn't expect that the matter would be exposed so easily. It turned out that although Chen Li was tight-lipped, she was a big talker in front of acquaintances. This matter was immediately known to everyone she knew.
After all, we have been dating for almost a year, and we will be officially engaged soon, and marriage is also on the agenda, so I am not considered a nymphomaniac... definitely not...
Although I regretted it for a long time afterwards, fearing that my decision had been made too early, Su Xi not only did not love me less, but spent more time with me as much as possible, and also loved me. My uneasiness quickly disappeared, and my trust in Su Xi also increased to the highest point.
I always feel that such a boyfriend is too perfect... No, I should find time to change my name to husband.
I couldn't help but blush again when I thought of this.
The engagement ceremony was getting closer day by day, but I still felt like something was missing. At this moment, I suddenly received an invitation from Su Xi, who offered to take me to see the wedding dress.
I just said that there is one very important thing missing. How can there be no wedding dress in the wedding?
At this time, Chen Li asked me a little worriedly: "Is it too late to start making wedding dresses at this time? With your status, you are not planning to rent it, right?"
Although I also want to save money, as a wedding dress is such an important thing right now, I certainly don’t want to rent it if it can be made to order. When I heard Chen Li say that it would be too late to make it again, I couldn’t help but feel a little worried.
But Su Xi promised: "It's absolutely no problem. The wedding dress has been made. All that's left is to pick one."
I asked in confusion: "Generally speaking, shouldn't we select the items first and then make them?"
“You have forgotten that you are a world-famous model, and a world-renowned fashion design master has promised to personally be responsible for making your wedding dress.”
"Is it Aunt Song?" I shouted out in surprise, "She is still so interesting."
"It's more than interesting," Su Xi said with a wry smile, "This time I saw her and realized that she had brought hundreds of wedding dresses, and you can choose some of them in a while."
Chen Li was stunned for a moment and said, "Isn't it? Wedding dresses are not cheap to begin with. They can cost hundreds of thousands. And they are made by a world-class designer like Aunt Song... There are still more than a hundred pieces left?"
"It is impossible for her to be responsible for designing and making hundreds of different wedding dresses by herself, but this time because it is Hao Siyu's engagement ceremony, many designers hope that she can choose the work, so they all volunteered to come up with top-notch wedding dresses. My godmother refused to agree to the work at first, but then she couldn’t hold back so many people who came to her to ask for her work. In the end, she had to bring some works by designers of the same level as her, and then asked Hao Siyu to choose one by herself. Of course, those designers also have conditions, which is to serve as the chief model in the fashion show of the fashion designer whose work is selected.”
I didn’t expect that the fashion industry and the modeling industry would be so closely connected... My wedding was noticed by so many people.
I then nodded and agreed, "That's not a problem."
