"What's going on with Xiaodong? Why hasn't anyone arrived yet, and the phone call can't be reached!" Li Yuncong shook his phone irritably.
"Yes, and Tingting is not here either. She is my bridesmaid, so she is too unreliable!" Zhuang Wen was also worried about her bestie!
Fortunately, she has many friends. Although the temporary substitution was a little hectic, she managed to cope with it.
"Come on, it's time for us to toast!" Li Yuncong pulled Zhuang Wen out from behind after changing clothes.
At this time, Liu Dong's figure also appeared at the door of the banquet hall. Seeing this, Li Yuncong looked happy and was ready to greet him. But fortunately, he still knew the priorities and temporarily suppressed his concern for his friends and pulled Zhuang Wen toward him.
Go to the table in the center of the banquet hall. Mr. Li, as well as the eldest elders of the Li family and the Zhuang family are all there. Their status is the most respected, so naturally the grandchildren must come to them first to toast.
"Xiaodong, here!"
Looking at Zhou Bin waving, Liu Dong walked over quickly.
Although he ran for a while, due to Liu Dong's ability, there was no trace of sweat on his body, and even his breathing was not messy at all, so no one noticed anything strange about him.
With Zhou Bin's identity, it was not difficult to ask the waiter to add another chair. Although the people next to him didn't know Liu Dong, they knew Zhou Bin, so no one refused to give him face.
"Xiaodong, what's the matter with you? How come you're here now! You even missed Yuncong's wedding!" Liu Dong just sat down, and Zhou Bin couldn't wait to ask.
Hearing this, Liu Dong smiled bitterly in his heart. He couldn't tell the other party that because he was so quarreled by Jiang Tingting and Lin Ling, he got so excited that he put the two women into bed and Hu Tianheidi, so he missed Li Yuncong's wedding!
As for the traffic jam, forget it, there were not many traffic jams in Beijing in 2001!
"It's something that happened at home. My dad suddenly fainted. I caught a flight back and I'm just back now!"
The only thing more important than brothers getting married is family love!
"Mom and Dad, for the sake of your son and for the sake of having more grandchildren in the future, you must forgive your son for being unfilial!" Liu Dong kept praying in his heart.
"Uncle fainted, is it serious?" Zhou Bin asked with concern.
"It's not serious. Because the family conditions were poor and the food was not good, my dad was a little anemic. He will be fine if he rests for a while!" Liu Dong explained after apologizing to Zhou Bin in his heart.
"Oh, that's good. Why didn't you give us a call? Yun Cong and I thought something had happened to you!" Zhou Bin said with a sigh of relief.
"I forgot about it when I was in a hurry!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"Forget it, since this is the case, I won't blame you. I originally wanted to fine you three bottles of wine, but wait until next time!"
Hearing this, the corners of Liu Dong's mouth twitched. Fortunately, he was smart, otherwise he would have been lying there if he had lost three kilograms of Maotai!
Later, when Li Yuncong came over to toast, Liu Dong inevitably had to explain again.
Moreover, Zhuang Wen also inevitably asked about Jiang Tingting, and Liu Dong couldn't think of a better reason, so he had to give the reason why he had perfunctory Zhou Bin just now. Although it was a bit far-fetched, he finally managed to deal with it.
"By the way, where are you going for your honeymoon?" Liu Dong said.
"Haha, we have already thought about it. We plan to visit all the resorts around the world. We have plenty of time anyway!" Li Yuncong said with a smile.
Zhuang Wen next to her also smiled and nodded.
"I really envy you!" Liu Dong said.
"What are you envious of? It's not like I can't go when you get married, and you're not short of money now!" As he said that, Li Yuncong punched Liu Dong's shoulder.
"Haha, that's true!" Although he was smiling, Liu Dong's smile always contained a hint of far-fetchedness. Thinking of the women who were now entangled with him, Liu Dong felt filled with a sense of accomplishment as a man, but also had some headaches.
Big, and when to get married and who to marry are all issues that he needs to consider carefully.
"By the way, although it's a little late, I've prepared your wedding gifts!" Liu Dong took out two small boxes from his trouser pocket!
One was handed to Zhuang Wen, and the other was given to Li Yuncong.
"Xiaodong, can I open it now?" Li Yuncong asked curiously.
"certainly!"
"So beautiful!" Zhuang Wen first exclaimed.
After she couldn't wait to take out the contents of the brocade box, she suddenly caught the eyes of most people around her.
Someone who knows a lot about jade can tell at a glance that the jade bracelet on Zhuang Wen's hand has at least reached the level of glass sun green, which is only slightly worse than the top glass emperor green. Even because of the glass emperor green
It is so rare that many merchants sell this slightly inferior Yang green bracelet as Imperial green.
"Who is this person? The first thing he sells is an 8 million sun-green glass bracelet!"
"Eight million, is it really that expensive?"
"Of course, sometimes you may not even be able to buy it for 8 million, and glass-type sun-green jade is hard to see in the world!"
Listening to the discussions around him, Liu Dong smiled bitterly in his heart. Originally, he wanted to avoid being too public, so he didn't give away the imperial green glass jewelry as a gift, but the movement that occurred at this moment was obviously beyond his expectation.
"Xiaodong, this bracelet is too precious!" Although Zhuang Wen likes this bracelet very much, the jade bracelet worth more than 8 million yuan is too precious for her.
"Haha, Zhuang Wen, please accept it. I cut this when I went to Myanmar to gamble on stones. The cost is not much!" Liu Dong said.
"Yes, this bracelet is a piece of Xiaodong's heart. Just accept it. This kid is worth hundreds of millions now, and this little money is just a drop in the bucket. You don't have to be embarrassed!" Zhou Bin next to him said with a smile.
If we talk about his understanding of Liu Dong, he knows it in much more detail than Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen!
"Xiaodong, thank you, you are so interesting!" Li Yuncong motioned to Zhuang Wen to hand over the jade bracelet, and said gratefully to Liu Dong.
"Okay, if you hadn't gotten married, I wouldn't have given you such a big gift!" After smiling, Liu Dong pointed to the key in Li Yuncong's hand and continued, "This key was mine last month.
I ordered a Bugatti Veyron. Don’t you like sports cars? I’ll give it to you!”
"Really, where is the car?" Li Yuncong said in surprise.
"It's kept at my house. You can open it yourself when the time comes. Don't expect me to give it to you!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
Compared to Zhuang Wen, he was more open-minded in front of Li Yuncong!
"No problem, no problem!" Li Yuncong agreed repeatedly.
"Okay, don't wait any longer at our place. There are still many guests waiting for you and your wife to toast today!" Zhou Bin said.
"Okay, let's go over first. Let's have a good gathering after today!" Li Yuncong also knew that now was not the time for them to chat, so after finishing speaking, he took Zhuang Wen and picked up the wine glass and continued to walk towards the next table.
.
And just after Zhou Bin took Liu Dong to sit down, a tall, dignified old man with white hair and beard at the banquet table at the center of the banquet glanced at Liu Dong and said to the old man next to him who looked 70% similar to him.
: "Second brother, is that young man the Liu Dong you often call him?"
"Well, he is a very sensible and capable young man!" Li Renfang looked at Liu Dong's back with a faint look of expectation on his face!
"So you passed Chenxiang Pavilion to him!" the tall old man continued.
"Yes, it's rare to meet someone who likes me and is so talented in collecting and appraising antiques. For him to inherit my mantle, I have given up on my last wish!" Mr. Li sighed with a little sigh.
.
The tall old man nodded. His only younger brother inherited his father's hobby of antiques, but the younger generations of the Li family had no interest in their ancestors' career. This has always been a regret that lingers in his younger brother's heart. Now the successor of Chenxiang Pavilion
Even if someone has a foreign surname, it is better than letting the sign of Chenxiang Pavilion be lost in history!
Looking at the young man's back in the distance, the tall old man thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Second brother, do you think this young man looks familiar?"
"Familiar? Of course he does. I've known him for almost a year!" Mr. Li couldn't help but laugh when his elder brother, who was always strict, asked such a topic.
After glaring at his brother, the tall old man continued: "You know what I mean!"
"But you haven't seen him before, so why would you think he looks familiar? Besides, although Xiaodong looks average, he's not a popular face!" Old Li said.
"So, Lao Li, you feel the same way? This young man looks familiar to me, as if I've seen him somewhere before!" At this time, sitting on the left side of the tall old man, wearing a white shirt and carrying an elegant air.
He said with a thoughtful look on his face.
When Liu Dong gave his granddaughter a jade bracelet just now, he also saw it. The other party was so generous, which naturally attracted his attention.
Mr. Li stopped talking now. It was easy to talk to his eldest brother alone, but now that both of them are like this, there is obviously a problem!
And after the two old men finished speaking, several old ladies who were also present next to them also nodded at the same time!
At their table were all the eldest elders of the Li and Zhuang families, and they were brought together today because of the wedding of their two grandchildren, Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen.
"Do you think this young man looks a bit like Old Liu? They both have flat noses and big noses, and his eyes are similar to those of Old Liu!" An old lady next to her put on her reading glasses and looked at Liu Dong for a long time.
, said suddenly.
"When the little sister said it, she really thought that! This young man really looks a lot like Lao Liu, and the more he looks at him, the more they look alike!" Mr. Zhuang also nodded in agreement.
After Mr. Zhuang finished speaking, the people next to him looked at Liu Dong for a long time and nodded in agreement.
"Brother, Lao Zhuang, it can't be such a coincidence, Xiaodong is also named Liu!" Mr. Li said in surprise.
"Second brother, you have known the young man for a long time. Do you know his father's name?" the tall old man said. ___小/说/巴/士___
