Honeyed Marriage

chapter 13

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the hotel where the full moon banquet was held.

This is the second time Ruan Yan is going to see relatives from Zhou's family, except for Zhou's father and mother.Zhou Mengyan is not by her side, so she has to face it by herself for the time being, saying that it's fake not to be nervous.

But you shouldn't be too nervous, it must be just a meal.

Ruan Yan relaxed himself a bit and got out of the car.

Ye Qing escorted her into the hotel. On the second floor, they found the Hongyan Hall where the full moon banquet was held. They saw her at the Zhou Erjian's family meeting at the door, "Hey, is that Meng Yan's wife?"

"It seems like..."

"As my aunt said, she really can't see it..."

Xu Wenping turned her head to look at her and found that she looked exactly like the girl in the photo, and even more beautiful.

But she thought she could marry into Zhou's family based on her beauty?Besides, it's still a physical defect?

Ruan Yan was taken forward, Zhou Erjian smiled slightly and said, "This is Yanyan, right?"

"Ok……"

Ruan Yan listened to them introducing their identities, standing in front of them were Zhou Mengyan's uncle Zhou Laijian, aunt Xu Wenping, and cousin, cousin, and cousin's daughter are the protagonists of the full moon banquet tonight.

After learning of their seniority, Ruan Yan said hello to him.

Xu Wenping looked at her with a faint expression: "This child Meng Yan is too capricious to get married, and he doesn't let us see the woman beforehand and learn more about Yanyan."

Ruan Yan was slightly startled, Zhou Lajian said gently:

"Young people nowadays, flash marriages are not popular. Meng Yan has grown up so much, he must know it clearly in his heart."

Xu Wenping sneered: "What kind of status is Meng Yan now? Can I get married so casually? I grew up watching Meng Yan. Of course I know what girl is suitable for her."

Cousin Zhou Tian retorted: "You are not a cousin, how do you know that it is appropriate, and he and Sister-in-law Ruan Yan have already obtained the certificate."

Xu Wenping didn't expect her son to speak for outsiders, so she stared at him with anger, Zhou Tian rolled his eyes, Xu Wenping calmed down, looked at Ruan Yan, and laughed:

"Yanyan, I didn't say you are embarrassed, but you must be careful when you get married."

Ruan Yan didn't know how to answer, so he nodded.

"Sister-in-law, where is Brother Meng Yan, he hasn't come yet?"

"He should be here soon."

"Every day, you take your sister-in-law to sit down and chat with several other relatives. They haven't seen each other yet." Zhou Yanjian said.

Xu Wenping thoughtfully: "It's okay, I'll take her in."

So Ruan Yan was taken inside by Xu Wenping, but the latter said: "Let's go and talk, aunty hasn't talked with you yet."

"it is good……"

Ruan Yan didn't know what was going on, but he could only follow Xu Wenping to the lounge, and then Xu Wenping asked Ye Qing to leave first.

"sit down."

Ruan Yan and Xu Wenping sat opposite each other, and the latter asked, "Yanyan, how old are you this year?"

"23 years old."

"Then you should still be in college," Xu Wenping looked at her, "You are so beautiful, you should have a lot of boys chasing you, how many boyfriends did you talk to before?"

"I... haven't talked about a boyfriend before."

"Never talked about it?"

how is this possible?Is it possible that those photos of her with other boys are fake?

"It's not a big deal to fall in love. Just talk about a few."

Ruan Yan was a little embarrassed and explained it a little bit. She really hadn't talked about it, because there was no small flame of love ignited for various reasons.

Xu Wenping heard her saying, her brows were already frowned, "I haven't talked about it, then...do you usually play more with boys?"

"What?" Ruan Yan didn't understand.

Xu Wenping was a little annoyed with her attitude of asking three questions, "Ruan Yan, as an elder, I am talking to you, do you plan to play stupid?"

Ruan Yan became even more confused, "Auntie, I really don't understand what you mean."

"I came to talk to you today. On the one hand, it also represents the meaning of Meng Yan's parents. I will tell you the truth. It is absolutely impossible for the Zhou family to let a girl who is not clean--"

Before she finished her voice, a cold male voice came through the door:

"Auntie."

Ruan Yan was stunned when he heard Zhou Mengyan's voice. Xu Wenping was also a little surprised. With a serious expression, she stood up and laughed: "Meng Yan, you can count it."

"Ok."

Zhou Mengyan came over after he was busy. Just now I heard Zhou Tian said that after Xu Wenping brought Ruan Yan here, he came to look for them.

The man watched the two of them stay alone inside, sitting face to face. He noticed the atmosphere was not right, and then walked in, but Xu Wenping walked to the door and stopped him: "Come here, auntie and you alone Say something."

Zhou Mengyan was silent for a moment, and walked out of the lounge with her.

At the door, Xu Wenping closed the door and lowered her voice: "Meng Yan, about Ruan Yan...I think there are some things that you and your parents don't know, but my aunt has to mention it to you."

"what happened."

"I think your marriage was too hasty. I didn't take her to meet with elders like us beforehand. Let's not talk about her eye problems. This girl is not dignified and improper, and is not worthy of you."

Xu Wenping didn't see Zhou Mengyan's face, so she took out her mobile phone and showed him the text message received a few days ago:

"Look at her private relationship with boys so close, and after you get the certificate, how do outsiders see it? Meng Yan, you said your conditions are so good, why look for such a girl with a bad reputation, When the time comes, others will point her to her and lose face of our Zhou family, right?

Xu Wenping picked up the elders' set, and she was very touched when she said it: "Meng Yan, I tell you this is for your own good. Your parents are abroad and don’t know many things, so I have to do it for you. check……"

Who knows she hasn't finished speaking, Zhou Mengyan's cold voice directly stopped her:

"I know what kind of person Ruan Yan is."

Xu Wenping raised her head in shock, and looked at the man with a stern and displeased expression: "My marriage, it's not yet another person's turn to judge."

He didn't care about Ruan Yan and other people's affairs, but he still couldn't tolerate outsiders' rhetoric. He ran to him and made various evaluations, pointing to his decision.

"Why do you talk to auntie like this? I'm all for your own good..."

"If it's good for me, these chasing messages are still less."

At this moment, the man no longer had the patience to listen, he pushed open the door of the lounge and walked in.

Ruan Yan was at a loss when he heard someone coming in, and then stopped in front of her:

"go in."

Zhou Mengyan's voice was low, as if something happened just now.

"Okay..." Ruan Yan answered and stood up.

Zhou Mengyan took Ruan Yan to the banquet box, Xu Wenping was stunned, so angry that he couldn't fight, and then Zhou Tian walked over, "What's wrong?"

"Tell me about your cousin, who was so polite to me before, but now he dares to confront me for Ruan Yan. I just said that this marriage cannot be married..."

Zhou Tian said helplessly, "Mom, can you stop believing those photos that you don't know where they come from? Do you know whether they are true or not? Listening to the wind is rain, and the cousin finds his wife for what matters to you, you are not his mother.

"You still help him speak? I grew up watching Meng Yan when I was a child, just like my own child. Can I not care?"

"Here's this one again. Is that your son?"

Xu Wenping: "...you!"

The son embraced her and walked out, "My mother, don't you become the aunt of the neighborhood committee?"

On the other side, Ruan Yan and Zhou Mengyan walked to the box. She thought of the conversation just now, and it was better to tell Zhou Mengyan after some thought: "Just now my aunt came to me and asked some strange questions..."

He whispered: "Don't worry about it."

"...Oh, good." She had no choice but to respond.

In the evening banquet, because Zhou Mengyan was sitting next to Ruan Yan, some of the relatives in the room did not dare to talk in person because they all knew that Zhou Mengyan was definitely not a good talker.

Looking at his face, Xu Wenping felt jealous, knowing that if Zhou Mengyan was really offended, it would inevitably destroy the relationship between the two families.

After the banquet, Zhou Mengyan took Ruan Yan back home, the car stopped in front of the mansion, the servant came out, and first took Ruan Yan in.

Then the man got out of the car, stood by the car, lit a cigarette, and looked at Jiang Cheng:

"What's the end number of the phone that sent you a picture of your wife last time?"

Jiang Cheng checked the phone, "The end number is 0438."

Zhou Mengyan recalled that the ending number was the same as the ending number of the photo sent tonight on Xu Wenping's phone.

"Zhou, what do you need to do?" Jiang Cheng followed Zhou Mengyan, naturally knowing how to observe his words and colors.

Smoke filled the man’s face, blurring the emotions on the man’s face. After a while, he curled his eyelashes and pressed the smoke out:

"The courtesy exchanges, give Ruan Ling something back."

The next day, in Ruan’s villa, Ruan Ling was sitting lazily on the sofa and was manicured by a servant.

Today is the weekend, she came back from school, planning to do a manicure, and go shopping with friends in the afternoon.

"It hurts you."

She frowned suddenly, and the maid said in a panic, "I'm sorry, the second lady..."

Ruan Ling rolled his eyes, too lazy to care about her.

After a while, a servant walked into the hallway, "Second Miss, a gentleman outside is looking for you."

"Who?"

"The man said he was Mr. Zhou Mengyan's assistant."

"Zhou Mengyan's assistant?" Ruan Ling was surprised, "Why did he come to me?"

Ruan Ling walked out of the villa and saw Jiang Cheng standing at the door, holding a box in his hand.

She walked up to him: "Are you looking for me?"

Jiang Cheng smiled faintly, and handed her the box in his hand, "Miss Ruan Ling, this is what Zhou always asked me to bring you."

Ruan Ling took the dark red wooden hollow carved pattern box in his hand, feeling extremely delicate and beautiful, and he was secretly happy.

This is not a gift Zhou Mengyan brought to her, right?

She opened it immediately and saw a white greeting card tied with a crimson ribbon.

"what is this……"

"Miss Ruan Ling will know when you open it."

She opened it expectantly--

I saw the most eye-catching gold characters printed on the paper: "Zhou Mengyan & Ruan Yan".

Ruan Ling was stunned for two seconds before reacting, "Marriage... wedding invitation?!"

The wedding time written above was the next weekend. Ruan Ling was shocked. She spread so many rumors to Zhou Mengyan and Zhou's relatives about Ruan Yan's private life. He didn't believe it at all, so he still wanted to marry Ruan Yan in the end?!

Jiang Cheng looked at her stunned, and spoke coldly:

"Miss Ruan Ling, Mr. Zhou knows everything you did in private. The reason why Mr. Zhou didn't deal with these things before was not because he believed it, but because he was very busy and didn't bother to spend a little energy. On you, but please don't challenge Zhou Zong's patience again and again.

If you slander Mrs. Zhou in private, affect Mr. Zhou’s reputation, and find out again, you won’t be so kind to you. You will definitely not be able to afford the result at that time, so please do it yourself."

Ruan Ling heard the words, tightening the invitation in his hand, his eyes turned red, and he couldn't say a word.

Jiang Cheng drove away, and Ruan Ling watched the car drive away, burning with anger, frantically tearing up the invitation in his hand, tears bursting into his eyes.

A week later, on the seashore of Ambergris Island in Belize, the blue sky and the golden water lined up, and a grand wedding was held here.

The glass ceremonial pavilion decorated with flowers of various colors extends into the sea, with stars and colorful ribbons hanging above it, and the carpet that extends here is covered with rose petals.The waiter shuttled back and forth with red wine and champagne while a professional orchestra played cheerful music.

The list of invitations to the wedding this time is not too many, but every one of them can be regarded as a famous person in the business district.

On the second floor of the seaside villa next to the wedding venue, Ruan Yan is wearing a white wedding dress, holding a bouquet, and standing in front of the mirror. His impeccable facial features and makeup are beautiful and beautiful.

This is a wedding dress tailor-made for Ruan Yan. The skirt of white veil is dotted with streamers of Xinghai Waterfall, and the top is dotted with pink diamonds, with a light veil that is dragged to the ground, which is extremely beautiful and magical.

Zhu Xingzhi beside him couldn't help but smile: "Yanyan, if you can see it, you will definitely be beautiful by yourself."

Ruan Yan smiled lightly, "Really?"

"Do you remember? We all imagined ourselves in a wedding dress before, and now you realize it before me."

Zhu Xingzhi held Ruan Yan's hand, "Although there is something you know for sure, but I still want to tell you that I just want you to be happy. Although this marriage may not come as you wanted, I hope you never wronged yourself , You must remember that you are my forever little princess."

Ruan Yan smiled and hugged her, "Okay."

Zhu Xingzhi was called away, and only Ruan Yan was left sitting in front of the French windows facing the beach. She felt like she was a life away from a month ago.

I still remember that when she told her uncle about the marriage, the other party made a lot of fire, saying that she was too sloppy. She didn't know how she would agree to such a marriage, but since she has come to the present, there is no room for change.

The only thing she can do is to have some beautiful visions for the future.

Not about love, only about yourself.

The sky was getting dark, and the soft sea breeze in the evening rolled up Ruan Yan's veil, and the blue sky was dyed with warm orange.

The wedding officially begins.

Under everyone's attention, Ruan Yan and Zhou Mengyan stood at the forefront of the carpet, walking slowly along with the band playing music.

Ruan Yan is holding him, can't see everything, can only feel the calm company of the man beside him.

On such occasions, her heartbeat did not consciously accelerate.

After speaking the vows and exchanging rings, she finally heard the priest say in English, "Now, the groom can kiss your bride."

She felt her veil lifted, the next moment--

A very shallow and light kiss under the corner of her lips.

Although she was told in advance that this was a fixed process, at this moment, her heart was still shaking.

The evening breeze slowly seemed to make everything extra gentle.

The wedding banquet in the evening ended smoothly. In the dim night, warm lights lit up in the white villa by the sea.

Ruan Yan was sitting in front of the dressing table, being served by a servant taking off the decorations on his body and the top of his head, and then removing his makeup.

The door of the bedroom was open, and Zhou Mengyan's voice from outside came to his ears from time to time.

He is still busy.

After removing the makeup, she was taken to the bathroom by the servant, and opened the bathroom door. A faint rose scent came on her face. The servant left, she took off the clothes and walked closer to the huge rose bath.

She leaned against the pool, closed her eyes, and finally relaxed from the exhaustion of the day.

She has drunk a lot tonight and already feels a little drunk.

Before coming to take a bath, she passed by the living room and heard Zhou Mengyan was still busy.

It is true that for him, the wedding is just a process without any meaning.

And tonight, they should also rest as usual.

After the shower, she put on the pure white ice silk suspender skirt prepared by the servant. The hem of the skirt was just as big as the middle of the legs, and the tail was beautiful lace.

After she walked out of the bathroom, wrapped in a cloak, she went to the balcony in the bedroom, intending to blow the hair, and went to bed.

At this moment, the door of another bathroom on the same floor was opened.

The man finished taking a shower, changed his clothes, walked out of the steaming water, and then said to the servant standing on the corridor: "It's okay, you can go downstairs."

After all the servants had left, Zhou Mengyan looked at the wedding decorations on the corridor, and the next moment he stepped towards Ruan Yan's room.

Ruan Yan faced the sea and put his hand on the railing, the wind whizzing past his ears, covering up the sound of the door closing behind him.

She was thinking about her heart. She didn't clenched one of her hands, and the tulle cloak on her body was blown away by the wind. She bent down, because she couldn't see, she could only move slowly and fumble on the ground a little bit, and then heard a faint drop on top of her head. Male voice:

"At this."

She was stunned when she heard Zhou Mengyan's voice, and quickly stood upright.

Ruan Yan was stunned, and the cloak was put into her hands. She hurriedly said, "Thank you..."

She wondered, why would Zhou Mengyan come here?

If it was usual, they wouldn't meet after the shower, and he was even less likely to come to her room. The previous two were just accidents.

She put on her coat, leaned her back on the railing, and turned to him naturally, and she smelled the faint shower fragrance on his body, mixed with the night wind, which disturbed her inexplicably.

She always felt Zhou Mengyan's mood tonight seemed different from before.

It must be her illusion.

Seeing that he was silent, Ruan Yan tried to ease his embarrassment and asked casually: "Are you finished?"

His eyes grew deeper and he looked at her.

"There is nothing to do tonight."

"Um... Then you can have a good rest. I must be very tired these few days."

"Ok."

She felt that this topic should be finished, so she raised her lips, "Then I'll go back to the room first, and you should go to bed earlier."

She walked sideways, and within two steps, her wrist was suddenly held.

With his strength, she withdrew back to her original position, leaning against the railing, feeling the man standing in front of her, closer to him, as if he was half-circled in his arms.

The strong male hormonal aura swept towards her, making her mind blank.

"you……"

"Ruan Yan."

The man's shallow breathing fell to the top of his head.

He looked at her thin red cheeks, his voice sinking--

"On the wedding night, there is one final process."

The author has something to say: Mr. Zhou: I must be a man tonight.
