Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lin Zhaonan and Jiang Tongtong’s wedding proceeded as planned.
Lin Gantang seldom encountered Jiang Tongtong’s friends, but this time three of them came, all of whom were Jiang Tongtong’s college classmates.
Mr. Lin was busy welcoming the wedding guests, most of whom were business associates.
Jiang Tongtong’s family members had arrived, and Lin Gantang, accompanied by Wen Yanqing, exchanged a few words with Mother Jiang.
Jiang Tongtong bore a striking resemblance to her mother, and when they stood together, it was evident that they were mother and daughter.
“You must be Tangtang, right? Tongtong often mentioned you to me, saying that the two of you get along very well,” Mother Jiang kindly remarked.
In the past, Lin Gantang had treated Jiang Tongtong poorly, yet Jiang Tongtong had relayed such positive sentiments to her mother. Lin Gantang smiled and nodded. “Yes, I’m Tangtang, and this is my boyfriend.”
Mother Jiang beamed with delight and her gaze landed on Wen Yanqing. “You two look so well-suited together. When are you getting married? Remember to invite me to the wedding.”
“Of course, we will,” Lin Gantang replied with a smile.
The mention of marriage made Wen Yanqing’s heart tremble. He instinctively glanced at Lin Gantang, who accepted Mother Jiang’s well wishes with a cheerful smile. It kindled the hope in his heart like a growing fire.
Lin Gantang had brought Wen Yanqing to the wedding, and all the respectable relatives of the Lin family who came to attend the event knew him.
Although Lin Mingqing and Lin Mingbai envied Lin Mingzhuo’s wealth, they knew their place and didn’t bring up such matters on this joyous occasion. They offered their congratulations with joy and didn’t create any awkwardness.
It was a rare moment of harmony among relatives.
Family and friends didn’t forget to tease with smiles. “Old Lin, now that your son is getting married, isn’t it about time for your daughter’s wedding too?”
Mr. Lin enjoyed hearing this and was elated. He maintained his cheerful smile. “Haha, not yet, not yet. Young people, they all like to date for a couple of years first.”
News of Lin Gantang and Wen Yanqing’s relationship had already spread throughout their social circle. Now that everyone saw Mir. Lin treating Wen Yanqing as part of the family, they began to see the connection.
Many people grasped the implied message.
Wen Rendong also knew that his son had won the heart of the person he had longed for. However, Wen Yanqing and he had a distant relationship, so he merely listened and did not engage further.
When Lin Mingzhuo was sending out wedding invitations, he also sent one to the Wen family. After all, with Gantang and Yanqing being together, they wanted to be polite. However, Mr. Lin hadn’t expected Wen Rendong to attend.
Shengfang Group was a powerful entity, and both father and son from the Wen family were present at the wedding. Many people recognized the connection between the Wen and Lin families and began to redefine the Lin family’s future status in C City, something Mr. Lin hadn’t anticipated.
Wen Rendong’s presence surprised Mr. Lin, and he greeted him with a welcoming smile.
However, Wen Yanqing looked at Wen Rendong as if he were a stranger. His expression was neither sad nor happy, and he didn’t approach to speak.
Instead, it was Mr. Lin who called out, “Yanqing,” before Wen Yanqing walked over to him.
“The wedding is about to begin. Would you please take your father to the front?” Mr. Lin suggested.
“Of course.” Wen Yanqing nodded, making a polite and distant gesture to Wen Rendong.
Wen Rendong felt uneasy, but the past mistakes had already been made, and many things couldn’t be undone.
The sky was crystal clear, and a gentle breeze carried white clouds, symbolizing an enduring love. The oak tree, laden with fruit, stood as a testament.
In the sacred church, the resonant tolling of bells filled the air. The priest placed his hand on the Bible and began reciting the vows.
Lin Gantang noticed the tears shimmering in Jiang Tongtong’s eyes.
She saw the newlyweds locking eyes, and she heard their gentle but resolute “1 do.”
Lin Gantang turned her head, and Wen Yanqing was right there beside her.
He didn’t wear a smile, but his eyes gazed at her with unwavering loyalty and warmth..
