Chapter 2743 - 2805: The Arrival of Important Figures

"Take it now, I know my dad, he doesn’t mean anything by it. Besides, given our relationship, you’ve been to my house for a meal, it’s only reasonable for you to accept the red envelope, so don’t overthink it!" said the female classmate.

"Alright, I’ll accept the red envelope, and when you get married, I’ll give you a big one!" said Wang Yaxin.

"Hehe, that’s great, but first, you have to find me a boyfriend. Hmm, I don’t want anyone else, just introduce the male god to me later, I heard he’s not married yet!" the female classmate laughed.

As soon as they heard he wasn’t married, the others perked up with curiosity. Wang Yaxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes and said, "Don’t count on it, Brother Li has been married, and his kid is already quite big, it’s just that you don’t know about it."

"What? That’s impossible, getting married is such a huge deal... Oh, maybe it was overlooked. But so what if he’s married, a male god like him having a hundred or eighty women outside is normal, right? Anyway, I want to have his kids!" the female classmate said nonchalantly.

"Come on, I actually know a bit about this. I heard... Of course it’s just hearsay, but I heard the male god has many wives, maybe more than ten. All of them are as beautiful as goddesses, both beautiful and capable. Many of the Li family’s businesses are managed by his wives, which is why they’ve grown so quickly. So there’s no chance for us!"

"Really? Is that true?" the female classmate blinked, and upon getting a confirmed answer, suddenly laughed and said, "Doesn’t that mean I have a good chance? I have both the looks and the figure after all!"

"Little Liu, don’t joke around like that. Mr. Li being able to come is an honor for our whole family, and for my husband and me too. Don’t joke too much," said.

"I know, it’s just that he hasn’t arrived yet, so we’re fantasizing a little. Once he gets here, we won’t even have time to joke," said.

"See? I think I’m going to be so nervous that I won’t be able to handle it, my palms are already sweating," said the female doctor.

"Actually... I’m nervous too. You know I used to be quite bold, hosting school events without even needing a script, but now that I’m getting married, I feel so unsettled!" said the bride, Wang Yaxin.

"Maybe it’ll be the same when we get married. It’s the biggest event in life, the next one being having kids, or rather, the kids getting married."

"Let’s not talk about that for now, it’ll just make us more nervous. Let’s discuss the male god’s story instead, you know I love gossip like that, it’s useful to talk about it with others later," said the female doctor.

"You all, you’re just talking about rumours, don’t spread them after we leave, to avoid causing trouble," said Wang Yaxin.

All the bridesmaids nodded, but the graduate student was still a little confused as to why these people were so interested in a rich man. Oh, he sounds wealthy, but money can’t be eaten, and no matter how good a man is, he can’t be more fun than doing experiments?

The others didn’t know her thoughts, but if they did, they’d probably laugh their heads off, because this graduate student was about to apply for a PhD and was almost thirty without a partner, clearly not knowing the taste of love. No, she possibly never even had a crush, because Wang Yaxin had never seen her interested in anything beyond studies, she was simply... a miracle.

While the women were chatting and laughing, there was some commotion outside. A lackey ran over to report to Brother Hu, and Brother Hu got angry upon hearing it. Someone’s causing trouble on this joyous day? Isn’t that just ruining the event? Who dares to be so bold to cause trouble, I won’t let them off!

Just as he was about to react, Brother Hu remembered his role as the groom, he couldn’t get into a fight, it would ruin the wedding, so he took a deep breath and said, "Let’s go check it out!"

With that, he led a few lackeys out, heading to the entrance on the first floor. There Brother Hu saw his lackeys blocking the way, with a group of strong-looking men on the opposite side, who were clearly not to be trifled with. He quickly scanned them but found no familiar faces, which was to be expected.

The two sides were pushing and shoving, apparently having clashed already. Brother Hu parted the crowd and called out, "What’s going on?"

"Boss!" The lackeys were a bit embarrassed to see Brother Hu there, failing to handle it themselves and making the groom come out was shameful.

"No more shouting! What does this look like!" Brother Hu’s voice was firm, he looked over at the other side, cupped his hands and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is my joyful day, this place is already booked by us. If you want to eat, please go to the restaurant next door, no need to come in here!"

"We’re here to attend the wedding, this is a red envelope!" someone from the opposite stepped forward, looking about forty, dressed neatly, speaking as he pulled out a large red envelope and handed it over. Brother Hu frowned and asked, "May I know who you are? Forgive my poor eyesight, but I don’t recognize you?"

Come to deliver a gift for no reason? That’s impossible. It must be for Li Yifei. In this case, Brother Hu couldn’t let them in easily, especially since the other party was offering a gift. If the boss found out, he’d be upset.

Brother Hu knew the stakes, so he asked.

"What, not welcome?" The other party was slightly displeased, but didn’t withdraw his hand.

"It’s not about not being welcome. Anyone who comes is a guest, but... It’s already overbooked today. To be honest, I only prepared fifty tables, and now it’s up to eighty, we can’t fit anymore, so... If I don’t know you, please leave a name, and I’ll definitely visit another day to apologize," Brother Hu said.

"No need to apologize, we’re just here to attend!" the other party said.

Now, that’s causing trouble! Brother Hu and the dozens of lackeys behind him realized and responded accordingly.

"Bro, it’s a joyous day, let’s not make a fuss. We don’t know each other, I can’t accept the gift, what would that mean?" Brother Hu said sternly,

"No worries, we don’t know you either, just here to attend the wedding!" the other party replied.

"Then forgive me for not entertaining you well, this door can’t be opened. Inside are all my family and friends, you are unfamiliar, I can’t let you in. If there’s a disturbance at the table, it would be embarrassing for me," Brother Hu said, firmly rejecting them.

The opposite party paused, squinting his eyes, "Tiger, are you sure you want to deny me this face?"

"You haven’t even said your name, how can I let you in?"

"Haha, well said, Tiger, no wonder you can be friends with Clan leader Li!" the other party suddenly laughed, as if the previous tension had vanished, laughing loudly.

Tiger frowned even more, the other party had made it clear they were here for Li Yifei, so he said, "Clan leader Li is my boss, but aren’t you going to say your name?"

"Take the red envelope, according to the family hierarchy, Li Yifei should call me uncle. Of course, now that he’s the clan chief, there’s no need for that title. I’m from the Provincial City Ye Family; you are his underling and getting married in the provincial city. This joyous occasion, naturally, our Ye family would send someone to join and celebrate!" the other party said.

What? Brother Hu’s jaw dropped.

Huh? The lackeys behind Brother Hu were also shocked.

It’s not that they didn’t hear clearly, it’s because they heard it too clearly, which is why they were shocked. Brother Hu, with his status, knows about the several major families in the provincial city, and knows that some were wiped out by the boss. And the Ye family... that’s one of the boss’s wife’s families, specifically Ye Yunzhu, who is now the Vice Mayor of Mile City, her family coming to attend his wedding?

Oh, the Ye family is one of the top three families now, right? Even if not, they are very close. Such a big family attending his wedding? Well, although it’s because of Li Yifei, it’s still an honor. Brother Hu originally thought having Li Yifei was enough, now because of him, another prominent family, the Ye family, has sent people, regarded as Li Yifei’s uncle...

Oh my god, Brother Hu pinched himself, the pain made him alert, and he said, "I apologize for not recognizing you, Uncle Ye."

"What’s with the uncle talk? Only Li Yifei would call me that, you don’t need to. I’m still young," the other party laughed heartily, "Alright, take this envelope, it’s just a small gesture, don’t be so formal. Since you’ve settled in the provincial city, engage with the Ye family when you get a chance, you never know about business cooperation, we could all make money together!"

Brother Hu nodded repeatedly, showing a sincere smile. This was the boss’s in-law, so they were family too, especially since Ye family is also a big family. He knows how powerful Ye family is, basically, if Brother Hu were to rank them, except for the Li family, they are probably the most formidable. After all, he has the Li family as an ally, and they wouldn’t ignore any trouble.

This face being granted was beyond surprising, it was delightful, he coughed, quickly signalling his lackeys to step aside, making a gesture of invitation, "Uncle Ye, I’ll still call you uncle, otherwise it confuses the hierarchy, please come in, I’ll set up a separate table for you."

"Why bother, you said there was not enough space, let the others wait outside, move the cars away from the entrance!"

"That’s not proper... Well, I’ll arrange a separate room nearby, please don’t be shy, order whatever you’d like to eat, coming at noontime and not eating isn’t right, I’ll come over to toast later!" Brother Hu hurriedly said, it would be embarrassing if he couldn’t handle this task properly.
