At first.

After Jin Lanting graduated from university, he took Xiao Chuchu back to the Jin family, only to be kicked out by Jin Shenhan.

This matter is not a secret in Beijing.

Although the Jin family felt that "family scandals should not be publicized" and they were hiding it, but everyone here was from the four major families, so naturally they knew some inside stories.

Look around.

I happened to see Xiao Chuchu sitting down, casually chatting with Lu Xiao, Su Ho and others beside him.

Jin Shenhan's face changed slightly, looking a little unsightly.

This was considered a scandal to him, and the relationship between father and son was completely stiff at that time.

Han Wenru sighed and said in a gentle tone: "It was indeed our Jin family that was sorry for that girl back then."

"After so many years of not seeing each other, that girl looks more mature than she did three years ago."

Everyone heard the words.

Hearing Han Wenru’s candid words.

Jiang Fu was a little embarrassed for a while and continued to "taunt" Jin Shenhan.

Qi Wenjun casually smoothed things over: "What happened in the past is in the past."

"But that girl is our Lili's friend in the entertainment industry, and she is also the bridesmaid. Head of the Jin family, don't let us lose face when we meet again."

Jin Shenhan was silent, did not speak, but looked at the second table.

…

Second table.

Jin Lanting's eyes looked in Xiao Chuchu's direction from time to time, but he couldn't find any suitable reason to go there.

Qin Yi took the initiative and said, "Brother Jin, if you want to go, just go directly. No one will laugh at you."

"where to?"

"Ah."

Qin Yi chuckled.

Qi Ying looked like she was eating a big melon, tugged on Jiang Mingxuan's sleeve, and asked in a low voice: "Cousin, is Brother Jin's first girlfriend who came in just now?"

"Um."

"The one who sweeps out the house?"

"Shhh."

Jiang Mingxuan quickly stretched out his hand to ask his cousin to keep her voice down.

Qi Ying didn't mind watching the excitement, so she looked at Jin Lanting and asked, "Brother Jin, if you like him, go for it."

Jin Lanting: "..."

Qi Ying: "Boys must take the initiative in this kind of thing. You've been in love so many times, what's wrong with it?"

Jin Lanting: "..."

Qi Ying: "Uncle Jin and Aunt Han have been urging us to get married. Otherwise, you can take us directly to meet the parents. My father and aunt are both here. If there is any conflict, they will definitely stop it."

Everyone suddenly became confused.

Are you looking forward to some kind of conflict now?

Jin Lanting sighed silently, did not respond to Qi Ying's words, and had no intention of going to another table.

A man drank tea in front of him.

Qin Yi glanced at the other table and said in a casual tone: "I want to go over and talk to Lu Xiao about something, do you want to come with me?"

"Um?"

"Forget it if I don't go."

Said.

Qin Yi stood up and walked towards the other table.

Jin Lanting immediately stood up and followed, with a smile on his face: "Sister Qin Yi, I will accompany you to take a look."

"..."

The two of them came to another table together.

Su Ho was chatting with Lu Xiao and Xiao Chuchu, while Xu Qianwen listened quietly and said nothing...

I found Qin Yi and Jin Lanting coming over.

The four of them were all stunned.

Su Ho smiled and took the initiative to say hello: "Mr. Jin, Mr. Qin, who are you?"

Qin Yi nodded slightly, responding to the other party's greetings, and casually sat down next to Lu Xiao: "Jin Lanting is too embarrassed to come here alone, so he has to let me accompany him."

The words have been spoken.

Everyone looked at Jin Lanting and Xiao Chuchu.

Jin Lanting was suddenly filled with questions. Looking at Lu Xiao and Qin Yi sitting side by side, he suddenly felt like he had been cheated.

"I……"

"What's wrong, Mr. Jin?"

Xiao Chuchu looked at Jin Lanting and asked in a cold tone.

Jin Lanting looked a little embarrassed, hesitating and not knowing what to say: "That me..."

Organize the wording room.

The door of the banquet hall opened again.

This time everyone's eyes were focused on the door.

Gu Qian wore a black suit, held Jiang Li's hand, and walked into the banquet hall under the eyes of the guests.

When Jin Lanting saw this, he immediately sat down on the chair next to him.

The two protagonists arrive at the banquet hall.

The engagement party also kicked off.

In the sound of music.

The old man from the second room of the Gu family came on stage as the master of ceremonies and said some clichés such as "Thank you for all the guests."

Gu Qian and Jiang Li stood side by side holding hands.

"nervous?"

Gu Qian squeezed Jiang Li's hand and asked in a gentle voice.

Jiang Li shook his head slightly: "Fortunately, I want to know when the banquet will be held. Will there be sacrifices to ancestors or something?"

"These tedious processes have been omitted."

Gu Qian thought for a while and said, "But later we will sit down at the table to toast together, you..."

"I have a good drinking capacity."

"I mean, I've already asked someone to replace our wine with mineral water in advance."

"You look down on me?"

"There are dozens of tables here, each with a glass of liquor, are you sure?"

"All right."

Jiang Li shrugged and chose to give in.

She is quite aware of her ability to drink. When she was in the cast of "Heartbeat", she even made a joke because she was drunk.

Today is such an important day as the engagement party, and Jiang Li doesn't dare to mess around.

On stage.

The second-fang old man who served as the master of ceremonies carried out the process in an orderly manner.

Marriage certificate.

Brief speeches from both parents.

The newlyweds exchange tokens.

…

These are some basic engagement rituals.

As for the cumbersome sacrifices and prayer processes of wealthy families, Gu Qian has canceled them all on the grounds of "feudal superstition."
