Time is so fleeting, half a lifetime passes in the blink of an eye.
For people who are engaged in scientific research or are busy with their careers, it is basically the same. One and a half years pass by very quickly.
July has passed in a flash, and the original engagement day has arrived.
The ceremony was held in Bincheng.
After all, this ceremony was held mainly to calm the hearts of the Ruan family and their daughter. If it was held in another place, who would they show it to?
The location is at the Shangri-La Hotel. Some relatives who are close to the family will hang out at the Ruan family villa. Those who are more distant will come over for a meal to witness and then leave.
For this ceremony, Lu Yan gave himself three days off. The day before the ceremony, he took a flight from Jinling to Bincheng.
The person who drove to pick me up was my cousin Liang Kun.
This person currently works at Meituan, with a medium position, a good salary, and drives a BMW 320. His life is extremely comfortable.
In addition, he is not bad looking and has been with several partners, so he is developing into a bit of a scumbag.
As he drove to pick up Lu Yan, he kept talking, "Brother, are you just engaged like this?"
Lu Yan smiled: "The ceremony will be held tomorrow, what's wrong with this!"
"Tsk tsk!"
Liang Kun sighed, looked at the road, and said: "You said you are only two years older than me and haven't left school completely. Why are you so anxious?"
Lu Yan smiled: "Just for peace of mind!"
"Aren't you afraid that those beauties will be sad?"
"Tch, I don't have any confidante!"
"Come on, what you said is so shameful. It's worse than Lu Tao's kidneys!"
"What's wrong with him?"
Liang Kun chuckled: "That kid asked me a while ago why he couldn't do it?"
Lu Yan said: "You're too nervous!"
Liang Kun smiled: "That's not good. You said your little brother has grown up and left the profession, so why are you still withdrawing from the world? Who will lead us from now on?"
Lu Yan smiled: "Get out of here, you!"
While we were chatting and joking, the car drove to Guanjiang International Community.
Because Bincheng's housing prices, compared to other cities across the country, did not increase much for a long time. It was only in 2016 or 2017 that they began to skyrocket.
Therefore, Lu Yan doesn't own much real estate in Bincheng. In the past six months, he bought a second-hand, well-decorated house in Guanjiang International, where he worked.
I stayed here during the ceremony.
I went upstairs and took a shower first, then made a few phone calls.
My family, such as my parents, two uncles, an aunt, grandparents, etc., were all arranged in the hotel.
High school and college classmates were also placed in the hotel.
Business partners usually send a representative to send their blessings.
Most of the senior executives of their own companies still go to work, and they also send a few representatives to attend and gather around the table to discuss things.
What gave him a little headache were the girls he had feelings for.
These people seemed to have agreed upon it. Perhaps they felt that they would not have the courage to attend Lu Yan's wedding ceremony in the future, but they came in droves to get engaged.
Gao Jingwen, who had been working at Meituan’s Beijing branch, lived in Lu Yan’s house.
When Lu Yan returns to the capital, we occasionally get together.
I heard that Lu Yan was going to hold an engagement ceremony, so I contacted my high school classmates and asked for leave. I arrived yesterday. There should be a group of classmates eating and drinking again.
Mu Yunrong was still studying for a master's degree in law at Central China University and was at home during the summer vacation. When she found out that Lu Yan was engaged, she also promised to return and give Lu Yan a big red envelope.
Zhou Xiaoqing, who is responsible for the daily operations of Meituan, did not come.
But Chen Yishan, this crazy girl, had already announced that she would come to Lu Yan's engagement.
And Su Li, will come accompanied by Bao Bufan.
Hu Xiaoxian, who left after the graduation ceremony, actually said to his classmates that he would attend the engagement ceremony.
Thinking about these guys really makes my head hurt!
But fortunately, there is no ex-girlfriend table.
And Lu Yan’s real girlfriend is always Ruan Xiaoxiao!
"Hey, are you home yet?"
Ruan Xiaoxiao called and she came back a week in advance to discuss various details with her family and the wedding company.
For most people, getting engaged is no longer as solemn as it used to be.
It doesn't matter if we sleep together, who cares about whether we are engaged or not?
But for Ruan Xiaoxiao and Xiao Wanru, this engagement ceremony was extraordinary and quite meaningful.
Lu Yan is a sports star, entrepreneur, and public figure. Everyone knows that holding an engagement ceremony is very restrictive. After all, even reporters will come.
Although it is not as well-known to the world as the leader and his wife, and it is so star-studded, Lu Yan's engagement ceremony was still visited by local media and entertainment reporters from Bincheng.
In addition, Yang Mi and Tong Liya will be present, and Hu Ge and a few other artists who have dealt with Lu Yan also called to express their congratulations.
In short, the ceremony will be grand, with loud gongs and drums and firecrackers blasting!
Ruan Xiaoxiao is full of happiness, but Xiao Wanru hopes to change engagement to marriage. Then she will have no regrets in the short term!
"I'm here at the hotel, entertaining my classmates! Wait, are you going to meet your classmates too?"
Lu Yan said: "Well, let's take a look!"
"Oh, I didn't expect the engagement ceremony to be so complicated. I'm going to be so exhausted when I get married!"
Lu Yanxiao: "Marriage means torturing people to death with complicated and complicated rituals. It consumes a lot of energy and financial resources. Only then can people respect marriage and not leave easily!"
Ruan Xiaoxiao shouted: "Ah, you are not allowed to say unlucky words, bah, bah, childish words are unbridled!"
Lu Yan smiled and thought to himself: "I'm just having a purely academic discussion, okay!"
That's how it is. People always lack awe and respect for what is easily obtained.
If you take 300,000 yuan to open a store and do business, most people will be very cautious.
But when it comes to stock trading, many people will lack research and buy stocks after hearing the news and seeing the name.
Because it’s so easy to buy and sell at the same time!
Marriage is almost the same. Unfortunately, people nowadays are so disrespectful of marriage!
Not long after talking to Ruan Xiaoxiao, Fan Tongguang called.
This guy has always been outspoken. Although he works at Meituan and is very different from Lu Yan, his tone of voice is the same as before.
"Hey, Brother Yan, where are you? Everyone is waiting for you!"
"We just arrived in Bincheng, where are you playing?"
"Where can we be? A bunch of stragglers can't gather together without you. Point to a place, and a large force will assemble immediately and kill them immediately!"
Lu Yan smiled. To be honest, he quite liked Fan Tongguang's tone of voice, which reminded him of high school.
It would be meaningless if you were only submissive and just talked about it.
Furthermore, Fan Tongguang, although he speaks freely, can distinguish between situations, which is pretty good.
"Then, let's go to the hotel first? You can help entertain everyone. I might arrive later because there are too many friends here!"
"Understood, I promise to arrange everything properly!"
