The Garden Hotel was once an old hotel in City A. It was later renovated and given a new name. The renovated hotel follows the Internet celebrity route, and the various halls inside have different styles. The Rainforest Hall chosen by the Zhang family this time is an outdoor platform. The entire platform is surrounded by beautiful European-style white railings, and there are plantings everywhere on the platform. Various lush and tall plants. The dining table is not a regular round table for ten people, but a long table covered with white tablecloth. The table is decorated with beautiful bouquets and garlands. The entire platform is like a scene in a fairy tale, very dreamy.
Because it was an engagement party, the Zhang family did not invite many people. Apart from relatives, they were all very close old friends, and Liang Jili was naturally among them. Pang Deyou didn't have any relatives or friends here, so Guo Ming and Wu Yuanyuan attended together as relatives and friends of the man.
It was only half past four when everyone arrived, but the buffet reception in the Rainforest Hall had already been set up, and the long buffet table next to the waiter was filled with all kinds of drinks and snacks. Most of the old friends invited by the Zhang family are Zhang Renyi's comrades and colleagues, and they are all about the same age. Everyone who came in now laughed and exaggerated that Renyi was trendy and chose such a beautiful place to display the wine.
Zhang Qiang himself also invited a few close colleagues and friends, plus Zhang’s mother’s friends, there were more than 30 people here. Everyone gathered together to eat fruit snacks and chat, it was so lively. Of course, the main content of the chat is roughly to praise Pang Deyou.
Pang Deyou, who had been praised many times by people from all walks of life, took the opportunity to escape from Zhang family's relatives and friends, poured a glass of wine and stood next to Guo Ming, rubbing his cheeks that were stiff from laughter, and did not forget to praise Guo Ming's new clothing.
"Miracle doctor, you look much better in this outfit than in those clothes full of pockets!"
"I look good no matter what I wear, why do you have to tell me?" Guo Ming glared at him arrogantly.
"Hey, this important event in life has already taken a step towards success. How do you feel about it, groom-to-be?" Guo Ming picked up a piece of fruit and asked while chewing it.
"It's like a dream, there is always an unreal feeling. Am I going to settle on a wife? If, if my parents were still here, seeing this scene... Hey, let's not talk about this, we are human beings in two lives. !" Pang Deyou drank the wine in one gulp, turned around and poured another glass, and then looked at Guo Ming: "It's you. I'm already worried about you here. What about you, do you still plan to be alone?"
"Me? I have been in love with Miss Wu for a long time." Guo Ming smiled, turned around and picked up a piece of fruit with a fruit fork and forked it.
"Oh, that's such a good thing! Why didn't you tell me earlier! I usually see you and Miss Wu being so close, I thought they were just close friends, but it turns out we are already in love! Congratulations! I didn't know you two When are you getting married?"
"Getting married? Why don't I want to be like you and tell the world that that woman is my lover? What a pity... Hey! The customs here are different from those in Tianrong, and they cannot tolerate same-sex love like ours! "Guo Ming stared at a banana tree not far away, his expression gloomy.
"This is not like you." Pang Deyou said, staring at Guo Ming. "When did I, Tianrong's number one assassin, turn into a person who is too hesitant about gains and losses?"
"Let me ask you, if your love brings trouble to Miss Zhang, will you still be as enthusiastic towards her as ever? If you know that the Zhang family will definitely oppose your marriage, and may even cause Miss Zhang to betray her relatives, can you Will you still stick to your feelings?"
"But...but..."
"We are still insisting. I just think that if there is a way to stop her from worrying about our relationship and allow her family to face it calmly, even if they don't agree, they can acquiesce. This is also OK."
"This...seems like this is all we can do..."
Everyone chatted lively for a long time, and it was almost time for dinner. The sky is still bright, but various colored lights have been lit up on the rooftop, making it look like daylight. The waiter removed the fruit plate and snacks, and several dining carts came over one after another, pushing new hot and cold dishes, and placed them neatly on the long table one by one.
There was a small stage surrounded by a few short trees, with star-like colored lights behind it, flowing down from the top of the trees like a curtain. Seeing that it was almost time, Zhang Renyi took his wife's hand and walked up together.
"Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend the engagement party between Pang Deyou and his daughter Zhang Qiang..."
After a polite exchange of greetings, the engagement party officially began.
Because it was a buffet, everyone had a lot of freedom, and the Zhang family did not deliberately arrange seats, so the guests all gathered together to eat and chat according to their own preferences. It could be said that the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
Although the engagement banquet is in Western style, the toasting activity is still in Chinese style. After all, most of the people here are elders. If you just stand there and say a few toasts and then make a toast, it will inevitably make people feel that the etiquette is not enough. In addition, Zhang Qiang and Pang Deyou were originally lively and not afraid of drinking, so they simply raised their wine glasses and started toasting table after table.
While they were toasting, the foreman came over and saw that the two of them were busy, so he walked to Zhang Renyi and whispered: "Mr. Zhang, in order to wish your two newlyweds a happy engagement, our hotel specially presents a plate of iron plate and beef. Professional Japanese chefs will cook it for you on the spot. I wish you a harmonious and prosperous life!"
When Zhang Renyi heard this, he was very impressed and nodded immediately: "Okay, okay, your hotel is interested!" He also told the people around him about this news, which was considered as an advertisement for the hotel.
After a while, two waiters came over pushing a large cooking table. There is a huge iron plate on the cooking table, and on the white countertop next to it are pieces of beef with beautiful textures, as well as other sauces.
Coming with the cooking table was a tall chef wearing a turban, wearing a navy blue cardigan and an apron, and carrying a cloth bag with him.
I saw him standing in front of the cooking table, placing the cloth bag in his hand on the table, slowly opening it, and the cold light suddenly appeared!
It turned out that there were several chef's knives from large to small inside, each of them polished to a shiny shine and freezing cold.
The surrounding guests all exclaimed, what a beautiful knife! To be honest, even if veterans who are accustomed to fighting on the battlefield have retired, they still like the beautiful swords, guns and sticks. Among the people here, there are quite a few such people.
For some reason, Guo Ming felt vaguely uncomfortable when he saw the knife in the man's hand. The knives used to cut the beef in his hands gave Guo Ming a hint of murderous intent.
Thinking of this, Guo Ming glanced at the man warily and found that he was only looking at the squeaky beef being burned on the iron plate. Guo Ming was still worried, so he looked at Pang Deyou again.
Pang Deyou was watching the chef's performance with everyone when he felt a gaze coming towards him and raised his eyes to meet it. Although he had drunk some wine before, luckily he was still sober. He instantly received the message Guo Ming gave him, and his face became solemn.
"Wow~~~~~" With a loud shout, a flame rose from the iron plate on the cooking table! The aroma of wine, wrapped in the aroma of beef fat, is coming to everyone!
