Chapter 1865: Chapter 1864: Discussing Marriage Arrangements
Mo Xiuchen glanced at the few people beside him, a subtle curve forming at the corner of his mouth.
He did not share their regrets.
Although he and Ranran didn’t have a wedding when they first got married, they just got the certificate.
But later, he made up for it by holding a grand wedding for Ranran. As for Gu Kai’s resentful gaze, he simply pretended not to see it.
Anyway, Gu Kai and Bai Yiyi went on their honeymoon, and the wedding originally planned for him and Bai Yiyi was eventually used to capture the bad guys…
**
Regardless of whether Meng Ke was captured, life went on as usual.
The next day, Luo Haofeng came to the Bai Family to discuss the marriage with Bai Xiaoxiao’s parents.
In the delicately decorated and warm living room, Mr. and Mrs. Bai sat on one sofa, while Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao sat on another sofa,
After hearing what he said, Mr. and Mrs. Bai didn’t agree immediately but pondered.
“Is this just your idea, or have you discussed it with your parents?”
After a moment of silence, Mother Bai calmly asked.
Mentioning his parents, Luo Haofeng’s expression shifted slightly but quickly returned to normal as he smiled and replied, “Aunt, it’s my personal decision. I can make my own decisions about my marriage.”
In other words, he didn’t need to discuss his marriage with his parents.
But Mother Bai didn’t see it that way, “You’d better discuss it with your parents, especially your mother. We only have Xiaoxiao, and on her once-in-a-lifetime wedding, we don’t want anything to go wrong.”
Even though Luo Haofeng had said that his parents agreed with him being with Xiaoxiao, Qiao Xiuyun couldn’t fully trust him without seeing Wu Jingfang in person.
Although she never wanted to meet Wu Jingfang in her life, now that Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng were going to be together, it was unavoidable.
Last night, she even told Xiaoxiao that if Wu Jingfang didn’t want to attend their wedding, she didn’t have to.
But after thinking it over, she felt increasingly that before finalizing the marriage arrangements, she must meet or at least have a phone call with Wu Jingfang.
To get Wu Jingfang’s affirmation and guarantee.
Bai Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and spoke softly, “Haofeng, mom is right. Marriage is a major life event. Even if you can decide, you should inform my parents.”
She understood her mother’s worries, and at the same time, Bai Xiaoxiao was also worried that Wu Jingfang wouldn’t like her.
Luo Haofeng noticed Bai Xiaoxiao’s concern, gently grasped her hand, and said softly, “Alright, I’ll call my parents right now.”
He took out his phone and dialed Luo Rongbin’s number.
Meanwhile, Luo Rongbin and Wu Jingfang were on a scenic island abroad. Luo Rongbin glanced at the caller ID and said to Wu Jingfang beside him, “You can go play on the beach first, and I’ll find you later.”
Though Wu Jingfang was over fifty, with her great figure, she very much enjoyed beach activities.
She asked who was calling, and upon learning it was their son, she left at ease.
With such good sunshine and beautiful scenery, of course, one should enjoy it thoroughly.
Watching Wu Jingfang walk away, Luo Rongbin answered the call cheerfully, “Hello, Ah Feng.”
“Dad, I’m at Xiaoxiao’s house discussing my and Xiaoxiao’s wedding. Her parents asked me to call you and mom for your opinions.”
Luo Haofeng didn’t say this behind Mr. and Mrs. Bai’s backs but openly in front of them.
His face calm and composed.
On the other end, hearing Luo Haofeng discussing marriage, Luo Rongbin happily laughed and said, “You and Xiaoxiao should get married soon. But there’s no need to ask for your mom’s and my opinions. Just follow your in-laws’ arrangements.”
Hearing this, Luo Haofeng smiled, “Dad, is that just your opinion, or both yours and mom’s?”
“Turn on the speakerphone.”
Luo Haofeng glanced at Mr. and Mrs. Bai and turned on the speakerphone.
His father’s voice resonated in the silent living room from the phone, “Of course, it’s both mine and your mom’s opinion. Your mom is enjoying herself too much here and doesn’t plan to return soon.”
“Are you not coming back to attend our wedding?”
There was a hint of regret in Luo Haofeng’s voice when he said this, but inwardly, he was glad.
He knew his mom still had reservations about the last event.
Not coming back was actually a good thing.
“We’re not coming back. We will choose nice gifts and send them to you and Xiaoxiao later.”
“Where are you now?”
Luo Haofeng didn’t call his parents every day, only once every few days, so he wasn’t sure where they were at the moment.
Meanwhile, Wu Jingfang had just found a place to sit when a gentleman approached her, speaking fluent Chinese, “Mrs. Luo, my friend would like to invite you for a cup of coffee…”
Following his gesture, Wu Jingfang looked towards a distant cafe, seeing a man sitting by the window.
Facing in her direction, their eyes met, and the man waved and smiled at her.
Wu Jingfang knew this man from the beach yesterday, but she didn’t know the one sitting inside the cafe,
“Please, Mrs. Luo.”
Wu Jingfang smiled and agreed, getting up to follow the man to the distant cafe.
Inside the cafe, the man sitting by the window had already come to the door, saying to Wu Jingfang, “Mrs. Luo, let’s talk in a private room upstairs.”
A hint of suspicion flashed in Wu Jingfang’s eyes, and there was a touch of caution in her gaze towards him, “Sir, I don’t know you, so there’s no need to talk in a private room, right?”
Saying this, she turned to look at the man who invited her in.
The man gave a friendly smile and explained gently, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Luo, there’s another friend upstairs who would like to meet you.”
Wu Jingfang wanted to refuse, but before she could speak, the man urged, “Please, Mrs. Luo.”
Though he made a polite gesture, there was always a chilly feeling in his courteous demeanor.
Wu Jingfang hesitated, glanced outside, but since Luo Rongbin didn’t come along, she could only follow the two men upstairs.
The two men led her upstairs, one in front and one behind, opened the private room door, and invited her in.
A man sat on the sofa inside the private room, and from the doorway, Wu Jingfang could only see half of his profile, her first reaction was that she didn’t recognize this person.
After entering the private room, the man behind her closed the door.
The man sitting on the sofa slowly turned his face to her, and when Wu Jingfang saw his face clearly, her expression changed slightly.
“Please sit, Mrs. Luo.”
The man had a smirk at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were icy cold.
Wu Jingfang snorted unpleasantly, glanced back at the two men behind her, and walked over to sit on the sofa.
