Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 554: Prelude

Views:

Li Jianping took over his sister's wedding, and he wholeheartedly wanted to give his sister a grand and unforgettable wedding. After setting the date, he began to prepare. From the banquet menu to the layout of the venue, everything was planned in detail and thoughtfully. Li Wei was also asked to design the invitations himself, and Li Jianping found someone to print them out in color and help distribute them everywhere.

On September 27th, Li Wei finished recording the last column before the holiday. After the show ended, Li Wei walked out of the studio and returned to the office.

Colleagues in the office were booing: "Li Wei, you are getting married soon. Do you want to have another bachelor party to commemorate your upcoming bachelorhood?"

Faced with this heckle-like suggestion, Li Wei readily agreed: "Okay, I'll treat everyone to a meal, a drink, and a song."

Everyone was very happy, only Zhu Heng said: "You go and have fun, I have something to go back to."

Yang Li hurriedly asked: "Aren't you going to be a producer?"

Zhu Heng said: "I really have something wrong."

Zhu Heng still did not participate in their carnival. Li Wei took several colleagues to a hot pot restaurant to satisfy their cravings. Normally she would never dare to eat spicy food for fear of affecting her throat, but this night she didn't have so many worries. After eating and drinking, everyone went to the KTV. After entering the private room, Li Wei has been acting as a waiter to help everyone, peeling fruits, requesting songs, adjusting the volume, and taking good care of everyone.

Everyone was familiar with Li Wei's singing voice, and no one dared to hand the microphone to her.

When they were crazy enough, they dispersed. Li Wei drank a lot of wine today, so Yang Li took the initiative to send Li Wei all the way home. Although Li Wei was a little drunk, her mind was extremely clear. She Let Yang Li stay.

After drinking a glass of honey water and taking a shower, I felt much better.

At night, the two of them couldn't sleep, so they lay in bed and talked, all about Zhao Qian. Li Wei told Yang Li everything about how he realized and fell in love, but of course he only talked about what happened in this time and space.

After hearing this, Yang Li said with envy: "How romantic. You are also lucky. You are so happy to meet such a person. It seems that I should not fall in love easily, but should take a long-term view. , just find a star who is good-looking and good at making money.”

Li Wei couldn't tell Yang Li all about the grievances between Li Wei and Zhao Qian, and Yang Li couldn't understand them either.

Zhao Qian arrived in this city by plane at noon on the 29th. Li Wei personally went to the airport to pick him up. After picking up Zhao Qian, he went directly back to Huiliang.

Li Wei was driving a newly purchased car. She hadn't touched the steering wheel for so long, and her speed was always controlled at the minimum speed.

"Have you ever wanted to get a driver's license?"

Zhao Qian smiled and said, "I don't have any use for the time being and I don't have time to take the exam."

"Then again, you have a full-time driver, so you won't be able to use it for the time being."

At this moment, Qiu Kai was sitting in the back row and dozing off. Qiu Kai is the best man invited by Zhao Qian.

Li Wei asked about the air ticket again, and Zhao Qian said: "Qiu Kai said it has been arranged for us, at 6:10 in the morning on the 2nd."

Li Wei said: "Time is a bit short."

Zhao Qian said: "There is nothing we can do about it. There is still a lot of work waiting for us behind you and me."

The five-day honeymoon trip was already a luxury for the two of them.

The two of them rushed home, and Li Jianping was extremely busy. He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the protagonists back, and quickly asked Li Wei to confirm the ceremony.

Zhao Qian went to Liu Chunzhi and said hello to Liu Chunzhi.

Since Liu Chunzhi had agreed to the marriage, even if she recognized the son-in-law, she didn't show the same disgust when facing Zhao Qian as before. She just spoke lightly and could not see any joy.

"Second brother, hasn't he arrived home yet?" Li Wei asked.

"It is said that he will not be able to arrive until the evening of the 30th. He is also busy. It is not easy to come all the way back."

As long as I arrive before the 1st, I can catch their wedding.

Modern wedding ceremonies are relatively simplified. In ancient times, especially the marriage procedures of royal children were complicated. Zhao Qian has no parents or other relatives here, only some work friends, so the ceremony is even more simplified.

We started decorating the lawn on the morning of the 30th. Fortunately, we had a lot of people at home. Everyone started to act together, tying flowers, tying balloons, and erecting porches, and the atmosphere was brightened. In the afternoon of the 30th, the relatives and friends who had been invited to the banquet came one after another. Surprisingly, not only the relatives and friends, but also two media came. A print media and a TV station said they wanted to report on the wedding.

Li Wei felt flattered. She turned around and asked Zhao Qian: "Were those media outlets you informed?"

Zhao Qian had roughly guessed it. He told Li Wei: "It wasn't my idea, it was probably invited by the company. The boss said that my marriage is a big event and needs to be made in a big way."

"It's just a marriage. What's there to promote?" Li Wei didn't like high-profile matters. In her opinion, marriage is her private matter, so she doesn't like to be hyped, but she also understands that Zhao Qian's boss must have his own ideas and wants to use this wedding to increase Zhao Qian's popularity. After all, he had disappeared for nearly two years, and just when everyone was about to forget about it, Zhao Qian came back to everyone's attention with just one move. After all, Zhao Qian's new drama will be released in a few months, so this is a good opportunity to promote it.

Li Wei was very polite to both media outlets and specially ordered people to help receive them.

Li Wei didn't have to do the venue decoration herself, but she still had to go to Yongning to burn incense at her father's grave. When his father was still alive, he had always been concerned about Li Wei's life-long events, and now that he was getting married, he had to tell him.

Liu Chunzhi helped them prepare the offerings, and Zhao Qian went to buy a bouquet of flowers. They went to Yongning, and it was Zhao Qian's first time to visit the place where Li Wei grew up.

They went to Li Minghua's grave, and Zhao Qian followed Li Wei to salute and kowtow. Later, the two stood on the hill holding hands and looking down the mountain.

"I came here in 1990, and it's already 2006 here. Sixteen years have really gone by in a blink of an eye. For me, I only stayed in this village for one year, and then I went to Huiliang. Then I was in junior high school and my family was having a hard time. I was confused about the future and didn’t know what I wanted. It wasn’t until I saw you on TV that I found my direction in life.”

Zhao Qian smiled and said: "You just want to get close to me and then kill me?"

Li Wei also laughed: "Yes, I hated you with all my teeth at that time. At that time, I didn't know how to meet you. Later, I accidentally came into contact with the field of hosting, and I happened to apply for a related field when I was in college. As a professional, I gradually got to know you. Now that I have overcome the difficulties step by step, this journey is really not easy.”

"Is it ever easy? But thank you Awei, thank you for finding me and allowing me to make up for my regrets to you here, and thank you for understanding me."

"The knot between us has been untied a long time ago. It was you who made me learn to put down my efforts and look forward."
