But the two of us were still tornted all the way through by the three couples in formal attire taking pictures, especially since Zhao Huai and Xiaoi even ended up as a pair, wearing a wedding dress and a suit to take those kinds of photos.
At dinner, everyone went out to a private restaurant, and Jiang Zhiyuan asked, "Why don’t we go to AM?"
"That’s a question for our boss Mu!"
Helian Hao said, casting a sharp glance towards Mu Yichen.
Mu Yichen let out a slight smile, "So who’s paying for today’s wedding photos?"
Suddenly, silence fell around us.
We were led to an elegant private room, took our respective seats, and then, smartly, Helian Hao shut his mouth.
"Definitely not , I’m just a poor worker, and really poor at that!"
Xiaoi fiddled with her teacup while talking, her round black eyes looking at Qin Mu.
"Nor , I’m just a poor driver, and also a groomsman," Zhao Huai also said, dead serious.
"Xiaohao and I don’t make much," Jing Jian added severely.
Helian Hao poured himself a cup of tea, sealing his own lips even tighter.
"Qiao Yi and I only took a couple of shots, and as two single dogs, would you really have the nerve to ask us for money?" Jiang Zhiyuan comnted, with Qiao Yi nodding along.
"Looks like I’m footing the bill then. Shouldn’t you guys be more considerate and not ask for depressing stuff?"
Mu boss poured tea for his wife, opting for a herbal tea that was safe for pregnant won, which he had specifically requested from the staff.
Qin Mu laughed, "I’ll take care of the bill tonight, feel free to criticize away!"
Upon hearing this, several n blushed, especially Jiang Zhiyuan and Qiao Yi.
Zhao Huai continued shalessly pretending to be poor, and Xiaoi joyously freeloaded food and drinks as well.
"When Mumu and I first t Su Zhen, we thought she must be an actress or a model, what a figure she has," Helian Hao chid in again.
"Yeah! It was quite nice!" Mu Yichen remarked before sipping his tea, then winced as he felt pain in his thigh, still holding his coffee but unable to resist giving Qin Mu a bad grin.
Qin Mu pinched his thigh and glared at him.
"Haven’t I already told you everything I think?"
Qin Mu, recalling how she had pledged her loyalty just the night before, instantly felt a surge of joy and began to sip her water in small, delicate gulps.
Qin Mu was supposed to et with Qin Haiming these past two days, but since Qin Haiming suddenly went on a business trip, she was relieved of that burden for the ti being.
After dinner, everyone headed ho. Before Helian Hao and Jing Feng left, Qin Mu, as Helian Hao’s close friend, warned Jing Feng: "Take good care of our Xiaohao or you’ll have to answer to ."
Mu Yichen stood on the side, rembering how not long ago Helian Hao had issued him the sa warning; the two won were indeed close sisters.
Then Qin Mu got into the car, and Mu Yichen followed suit.
Jing Feng stood beside his own car but suddenly walked towards hers, opening the car door for her.
Helian Hao curiously glanced at him, "No need for that."
"I’m afraid Qin Mu will ask Mu Yichen to beat up. You know he’s quite skilled, and I might not win every ti," Jing Feng said, a man not usually given to jokes.
Yet, for so reason, Helian Hao felt moved by those few words and got into the car without looking up.
Jing Feng closed the door for her, reminded her to buckle up, then made his way to the driver’s side, started the car, and drove off.
The whole ride ho was quiet, but inside, both were actually very excited.
Even though they had co to watch others take wedding photos, they ended up taking so themselves, albeit not many.
They had done this before, but this ti, it felt...
Completely different.
When they arrived ho, Helian Hao went to take a shower, while Jing Feng cut so fruit for her in the kitchen, but then he received a call from ho.
It was his mother.
"Xiaofeng, I heard Xiaohao is pregnant. Is it true?"
His mother’s voice was still soft, and Jing Feng’s eyebrows twitched slightly before he responded with a heavy "Hmm."
"Really? Then I’m going to be a grandmother?" His mother’s voice, tinged with excitent, ca through the phone.
In the dark night, this voice sounded sowhat fragile.
"Mom! Can we talk about this tomorrow? It’s very late," Jing Feng didn’t quite know what else to say at the mont but wanted to let Helian Hao know that his family was aware of her pregnancy.
"Oh, alright! Please take good care of Xiaohao. If there’s anything we can do, just let us know. She shouldn’t overexert herself now that she’s pregnant. Rest is what a pregnant woman needs the most."
