Chapter 183
Chapter 183
Shao Ji stood in front of the flower gate and watched, the red carpet spread out under his feet stretched to the bottom of the swearing-in platform.Shao Ji looked at them and smiled slightly. This was the first step, the first step in becoming a family.
Thinking of this, Shao Ji lowered his head, but it's a pity that he doesn't even have a normal family. Although her mother finally managed to get the title of Mrs. Shao, it was still a bit short.He guessed it might be because her mother had never taken this step.It's time to go through the rolled out red carpet, stand on the oath platform, and promise each other the "first step" to form a family.
Is it because she also feels regretful, so she always loves to wear red high heels.
Shao Ji couldn't help guessing like this.He couldn't figure out whether this was the case, but Ji Shuping had already walked behind him.Shao Ji looked up at him, and looked behind him, but he came alone.Shao Ji frowned and asked, "What about him?"
"Still changing clothes." Ji Shuping glanced at the flower gate in front of him, and then at the guest seats lined up on both sides of the red carpet, before walking in. He really wanted to check that there would be no mistakes in this wedding.Shao Ji looked at Ji Shuping's back in dissatisfaction, and ran after him, "You promised me to see him. I even tipped you off!"
"I didn't say I wouldn't let you see." Ji Shuping stopped in the middle of the red carpet, and glanced at the dining table not far away.The wedding is about to start, and the waiters have already started to put the dishes on the dining table one after another. The three-tiered wedding cake and champagne not far away have been put on the dining car. When the wedding starts, the bride and groom will push them up after the vows are finished. Pop the champagne and cut the cake.
Seeing that everything was going on in an orderly manner, Ji Shuping turned around to look at Shao Ji in satisfaction, "Has Zhou Yuan passed away?"
Shao Ji shook his head, "Not yet."
"The cooperation with Ji's has broken down. Your mother can't wait. Tomorrow night's reception, you will officially appear as the protagonist."
Shao Ji lowered his head and bit his lip, "So before that, I want to see him."
"I've said it before." Ji Shuping lowered his head and turned the watch on his wrist, "I didn't say I won't let you see." He raised his head and looked at Shao Ji who was bowing his head in front of him, frowned, and stretched out his index finger to provoke him. His chin said, "Look up, you are the future owner of Shao's. It's best not to be so downcast at the reception tomorrow night. Master Shao will be dissatisfied when he sees it. I will take him to meet you after the wedding ceremony."
Shao Ji was forced to look at him with his chin raised, "What do you want me to do this time?"
"Give Zhou Yuan the wind."
"Ji Shuping." Shang Xuechen changed his clothes and was excitedly waving his hands and calling his name to rush towards him. He just ran to the flower gate in front of the red carpet but stopped. He saw Ji Shuping stretching out his hand to pick Shao Ji's chin.Shang Xuechen wrinkled his face, and stood there with his arms crossed, obviously angry at being caught in bed.
Ji Shuping quickly withdrew his hand, and Shao Ji turned to look at him when he heard the voice.Just about to walk over to talk to Shang Xuechen, but was stopped by Ji Shuping, "Don't go over now. He will misunderstand."
Shao Ji looked back at the resentful look standing under the flower gate again, hesitated, Ji Shuping walked towards Shang Xuechen, passed by, and told Shao Ji, "You go to Yuan Li'an first. I'll coax him first."
Coax him.When Shao Ji heard these three words, he didn't know whether he envied Ji Shuping or Shang Xuechen for a moment.Because no one ever wants to come and coax yourself.Shao Ji saw Ji Shuping walking towards Shang Xuechen step by step on the red carpet, and finally turned around obediently and walked away. He didn't intend to go to Yuan Li'an, he just wanted to be alone for a while.
Ji Shuping was walking on the red carpet, seeing Shang Xuechen standing under the flower gate with a dark face, he couldn't help laughing before stepping forward to explain.Shang Xuechen was standing under the flower gate with a straight posture, not seeing Ji Shuping come up to explain to himself, he was walking around the courtyard with a smile on his lips.
Seeing him like this, Shang Xuechen couldn't help but get angry, his pinched upper lip became tighter and tighter, and his lower lip became more and more raised.Ji Shuping still walked towards him in such an unhurried manner, the people in his sight were getting closer and closer, until he stood still, Shang Xuechen's angry face completely occupied his eyes, and he couldn't even distinguish them from the corner of his eyes. God, cast all your heart and soul on Shang Xuechen's angry face.
Ji Shuping reached out to touch his cheek.Shang Xuechen shook his shoulders, turned/dodged his hand, "Here, why don't you touch those young children." He squinted at Ji Shuping, "Why are you touching me?! The things in your mouth don't taste good, young people Only fresh."
Ji Shuping laughed when he heard that, and Shang Xuechen felt even more angry when he saw that he was still laughing indifferently.Letting go of his clenched arms, he was about to hit Ji Shuping on the shoulder with a punch, and he was still cursing, "You bastard!"
Although the mouth is cursing.But when the fist came out and was about to touch, he slowed down intentionally or unintentionally.Ji Shuping didn't need to pay too much attention, and easily wrapped Shang Xuechen's hand at the door.Shang Xuechen was about to pull out, but Ji Shuping just wrapped his hands tightly.
Shang Xuechen frowned and looked at him, "Let go of me! Who are you, do I know you well? You must have mistaken the person, the one you just touched was someone else."
Ji Shuping didn't explain, and took his hand through his arm, then turned around and stood with him under the flower gate.Shang Xuechen was still struggling with his hands awkwardly, "What are you doing, I'll call you molested if you do this again!"
"You forgot?" Ji Shuping turned his head to look at him, "You forgot, I'm related to him? How could there be anything between me and him?"
As soon as these words came out, Shang Xuechen was stunned. He just watched the scene where Ji Shuping stretched out his hand to pick Shao Ji's chin. When he got excited, he really forgot the fact that they were relatives.He just felt that his blood pressure was rushing to the top of his head, so he wanted to ask Ji Shuping to give him a reasonable explanation.
Even thinking of this fact, Shang Xuechen still insisted on making a fuss, "Oh, then you are really good. My nephew can still pick uncle's chin."
Ji Shuping sighed, "Okay, I was wrong."
Shang Xuechen was dissatisfied with him admitting his mistake so quickly, he only thought it was perfunctory, "What do you mean? Do you think I'm making trouble for no reason? What's the matter with the sigh? You think I can't hear it, because you think I have nothing to do." Rescue, so just dismiss me with a sentence that I was wrong?"
Ji Shuping looked at him with a smile on his lips, "Do you still know that you are making trouble for no reason?"
"You!" Shang Xuechen wanted to say more, but Ji Shuping directly lowered his head and kissed him between the eyebrows.Shang Xuechen didn't quarrel with him anymore, he just turned his head hastily to see if anyone saw Ji Shuping's behavior towards him.Before the guests arrived, only two or three waiters had set up the dessert table and turned to leave.No one cared about them, Shang Xuechen breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Shuping put his hand on the back of his, and Shang Xuechen turned to look at him, "Can you stop doing this kind of thing in public?"
"Then can you also concentrate?"
"What do you want me to concentrate on?"
Ji Shuping turned his head and raised his chin, signaling Shang Xuechen to look forward.Shang Xuechen turned around and realized that they were standing at the place where the bride entered the arena.
Shang Xuechen looked down at the red carpet under his feet, then at the hand that Ji Shuping held onto his arm, and then looked up at the flower gate above his head, the flower ball hanging in the middle of the gate happened to be on top of their heads .Shang Xuechen finally understood after seeing it, raised his head and smiled at the bouquet hanging above his head, and finally turned his gaze to Ji Shuping who was looking at him.
Ji Shuping reached out and picked out the necklace around his neck, the ring was just surrounded by the colorful light projected by the square glass mirror.Ji Shuping asked him with a smile, "Did you ever play house when you were young?"
Shang Xuechen shook his head, "I've been alone since childhood, how can I play? Let my dad's men with scar faces play with me?"
"What a coincidence, I haven't played it either. Now play with me."
Shang Xuechen rolled his eyes at him, "Childish." After speaking, there was a smile on his lips.
Ji Shuping knew that he was saying yes, so he looked back at the stage not far away and said loudly, "Newcomers are invited to enter."
Shang Xuechen held back his laughter, and followed Ji Shuping two steps forward, feeling bored again, "Are you just walking like this? It's so boring."
As soon as Shang Xuechen finished complaining about the monotony and boredom, Ji Shuping started to compose music for himself, "Thump, thump, thump..."
Shang Xuechen realized that he was humming a wedding march, and after licking his lips, he began to hum along with Ji Shuping, "Deng, thump, thump——"
The two hummed all the way to the oath stand.Although Ji Shuping only said that he was playing house, Shang Xuechen still touched the necklace on his neck nervously.Ji Shuping turned to face him, Shang Xuechen let go of his arm, swallowed his saliva before turning to face Ji Shuping.
Ji Shuping looked at him and asked, "Shang Xuechen, whether you are suffering from illness or poverty..."
"No, I still don't want to be poor." Shang Xuechen interrupted him, thought about it and then continued, "I don't want you to have illnesses and pains either. Do you have to talk about such a happy marriage? It's better to be purely Chinese. When the matchmaker guides the couple in, she only speaks auspicious words, unlike the Western style where she has to say something depressing."
Ji Shuping felt that what he said was reasonable, so why did he have to say something frustrating, so he skipped the long paragraph before, "Then you are willing to..."
"Whoo-"
Shang Xuechen was waiting for Ji Shuping to ask, but the sound at the scene suddenly pierced, causing him to quickly plug his ears.When the stereo stopped, their house-playing game also stopped.Ji Shuping pulled him off the stage, "The sound is being tested, the wedding is about to begin."
"Oh." Shang Xuechen replied with some disappointment. Seeing Zhou Ge and Yuan Li'an trotting over, and the guests entering the venue one after another, he shrugged his shoulders and comforted himself in his heart. Forget it, this wedding is not his own either. , After all, it is someone else's wedding.
Ji Shuping sensed his disappointment, led him to sit down on the guest table, and watched Brother Zhou stand on the podium.The master of ceremonies cleared his throat, the band joined in the fun, and the bride stood at the flower gate waiting.The drummer beat a series of notes, and the guests present fell silent, and then the wedding march sounded, and the master of ceremonies held a microphone and said loudly, "Newcomers are invited to enter."
Shang Xuechen applauded, and turned his head to see Jiajia, who was veiled, being led by his father on the red carpet to the swearing-in stage. Brother Zhou stood on the stage smiling and watching Jiajia walk towards him step by step.Tired of applauding, Shang Xuechen put down his hands, sighed and accidentally said what was in his heart, "I'm really envious."
As soon as these words came out, he heard Ji Shuping's voice in his ear, "There will be."
Shang Xuechen looked back at him, Ji Shuping put his arms around his waist and said, "We will have our own wedding."
Shang Xuechen smiled, he couldn't care less about Brother Zhou and Jiajia, he just focused on Ji Shuping's smiling face, and heard the emcee on the stage say the same words again, "Mr. Zhou Dafu, would you like to marry Mrs. To be a wife, to be one with her, to love her, to respect her, to protect her as yourself, and to be faithful to her in sickness and in health, rich and poor, till the day of death?"
Before Shang Xuechen heard Brother Zhou's answer on stage, Ji Shuping reached out and poked his waist first, without speaking but with a questioning expression on his face.Shang Xuechen understood, but he didn't speak. He raised his eyebrows and raised his chin, intentionally rushing Ji Shuping.Turning his head, he pretended to focus on the people on the stage.
"I am willing." Brother Zhou shouted loudly on the stage, and Jiajia lowered her head with a shy smile.
"En." Shang Xuechen only said this, and nodded after Brother Zhou's "I do".
"What do you mean?" Ji Shuping asked him anxiously.
Shang Xuechen glanced at him, spread his hands and said, "It can only be understood, but cannot be expressed in words."
Ji Shuping hugged his waist tightly, "But I'm a fool."
Shang Xuechen rolled his eyes at him, "Pull you down, you're so cloudy."
"I want to hear from you myself."
"Then you come here. I will tell you quietly."
Ji Shuping believed that he really got close to him, Shang Xuechen stuck to his ear, covered his mouth, and pretended to be whispering to him, then rolled his eyes and stared at the stage.After the newcomers on the stage had finished their oaths, the master of ceremonies fired a small salute, and the band joined in the fun. Shang Xuechen saw the timing and deliberately shouted into Ji Shuping's ear, "Ah——"
Ji Shuping covered his ears tightly, Shang Xuechen was happy after he succeeded, "You scoundrel, you have slandered me so many times, and I finally hit back." Ji Shuping covered his ears, and looked back at him leisurely.Shang Xuechen's heart skipped a beat when he saw him, and he looked back at the stage.He was afraid that Ji Shuping would take it back from him, so he was thinking of finding an opportunity to escape.
Brother Zhou and Jiajia had already opened the champagne, and they cut the cake with the same knife.Shang Xuechen spotted Yuan Li'an who was standing beside him, who was in a hurry to help distribute the cake, and immediately got up and said, "I'll go up and help them."
Before Ji Shuping could respond, he immediately ran to the stage.Ji Shuping was still sitting in his seat, and the guests who were given the cake either got together to chat and laugh, or drank champagne to look at the scenery in the hotel, and some went to the dining table to eat by themselves.Ji Shuping just sat still, watching Shang Xuechen stepped up to the stage, slapped Brother Zhou on the back, and then laughed with Brother Zhou.
Ji Shuping sat watching Shang Xuechen and Zhou Ge Jiajia who were in a good mood talking and laughing, and the corners of his mouth curled up.Footsteps came, until they stopped in front of him, blocking Ji Shuping's view of Shang Xuechen.Ji Shuping sighed, got up and walked to the dining table, brushed Shao Ji's shoulder and said, "I don't have a long time for you, just the time for me to eat."
Shao Ji looked at Ji Shuping's back as he walked away, and looked back at Shang Xuechen who was eating cake with Brother Zhou and the others on the stage.Shao Ji didn't know what kind of opening remarks he should make, just like he didn't know how to face his own brother naturally.
Shang Xuechen took a bite of the cake, took Jiajia's white gloved hand, looked at the ring on her ring finger again and again, raised her head and said to Brother Zhou beside her, "Did you buy this ring from Chow Tai Fook?"
"Fuck you!" Brother Zhou stretched out his hand and twitched Shang Xuechen's back, Jiajia covered her mouth and laughed.Yuan Li'an also laughed, and only after he finished laughing did he realize that Shao Ji was standing beside him, "Xiao Ji." Yuan Li'an called out to him in surprise, and reached out to take out the red envelope in his pocket, "When I went to pick up my relatives this morning... ..."
"Brother Zhou, happy wedding. I wish you a long and sweet life." Shao Ji passed Yuan Li'an, stepped forward to stand beside Shang Xuechen, and first said his best wishes to Brother Zhou and the others.Half of the red envelope in Yuan Li'an's pocket was drawn out, and Shao Ji, who was no longer by his side, looked down at the red envelope he was about to take out, then stuffed it back into his pocket, and said to himself, "Forget it, wait until you are free." give it."
Brother Zhou happily accepted Shao Ji's blessing, "Thank you very much." Then he handed a piece of cake to Shao Ji, "Here, you can eat whatever you like. The high-end buffet is free of charge, and it's all arranged by Ji Shuping. "Brother Zhou said this proudly, and Jiajia scolded him as he stretched out his hand and patted Brother Zhou on the shoulder.
Shang Xuechen smiled and forked a piece of cake into his mouth. After all, he praised Ji Shuping, and he felt that his face was also bright.After eating the cake and seeing Shao Ji looking straight at him, Shang Xuechen looked back and found that Ji Shuping was no longer sitting at the guest table.Shang Xuechen withdrew his gaze, fell on Shao Ji's face, and greeted him naturally, "You can take whatever you want to eat, Xiao Yuan is here, let him accompany you."
Shao Ji lowered his head and pursed his lips, then raised his head and said, "Brother Chen, come with me."
"I won't..."
"He agreed."
Shang Xuechen glanced at Shao Ji in surprise, then turned back to look for Ji Shuping's figure, but unfortunately he didn't see him.Shang Xuechen frowned and thought, what does this mean?Why did Ji Shuping agree with Shao Ji to be alone with him?
Seeing that he couldn't figure it out, Shao Ji stretched out his hand and pulled him down the stage, "I want to see you, but Ji Shuping has always disagreed. Today is a good day, and I have asked his permission."
Brother Zhou watched Shang Xuechen being dragged away by Shao Ji, Yuan Li'an glanced at them and then looked back at Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou shrugged his shoulders at Yuan Li'an, then smiled and fed Jiajia the cake, looking completely ok Big deal expression.
Yuan Li'an no longer went to see Zhou Ge and the others' scenes of you and me, but looked back at Shang Xuechen who was dragged away by Shao Ji.Brother Zhou can of course look like nothing happened, because he doesn't know anything, but he knows it.Yuan Li'an looked down at the cake on his plate, he knew they were brothers, do you want to stop them from getting close?But what position do I have to stop it?
Yuan Li'an touched the red envelope stuffed in his pocket, he had some sympathy for Shao Ji.Yuan Li'an raised his head and saw Ji Shuping who hadn't seen anyone just now, and he was also looking at the figures of the two people who had just left.Yuan Li'an sighed and thought, forget it, he wasn't in a hurry, so what was he in a hurry for?
