Chapter 797 - 426: Wu Xu’s Surprise

"Ladies and gentlemen, as you enter the cabin, please pay attention to the seat numbers at the edge of the luggage rack and take your seats accordingly..."

In the business class of the Boeing 738, Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi sat together, whispering to each other about what attitude they should adopt when negotiating with Huang Tianxuan’s parents upon arriving in Hangzhou.

Li Peifeng and the two girls, Xu Man and Wu Wenyue, sat in the row behind. Unable to use their phones during takeoff, both girls were a bit bored.

With nothing to do, Xu Manning noticed Li Peifeng resting with his eyes closed, so she wrapped his arm around hers and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Li Peifeng opened his eyes and immediately made up a story without hesitation, "I was thinking about why your makeup is extraordinarily beautiful today."

Xu Manning smirked and hummed with a smile, "Nonsense, you were probably chatting with some other woman... Connect me online; I want to see what Tianxuan is doing."

Wu Wenyue glanced at her and also grabbed Li Peifeng’s hand, saying, "Connect us. I want to know where you two went during your first meeting in Hangzhou; Manning and I want to go too."

Perhaps with more experience in group ’chatting,’ they gradually adapted to this convenient mode of communication and no longer resisted it, even taking the initiative to ask Li Peifeng to set up a ’chat room,’ just like Zhao Qingge.

Li Peifeng believed this represented a major breakthrough in their relationship. As Zhao Qingge said, he had overcome the emotional challenges. Although disputes occasionally occurred among the girls, they had generally accepted the ’five-in-one’ relationship and were gradually embracing each other.

But for everything to be perfect, there was still one last hurdle: the trials of life that Zhao Qingge mentioned, the external challenges, which were the biggest troubles.

Even without considering how the parents of several girls would react if they knew the truth, or what severe repercussions Li Peifeng might face, the sheer acceptance of Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi alone was a hurdle.

Huang Tianxuan was about to give birth, and this trip to Hangzhou was definitely about discussing the marriage of their children. However, the previous statements by their eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao Qingge, left the old couple unsure of how to explain to Mr. and Mrs. Huang. Yet not explaining would betray their second daughter-in-law, Tianxuan.

How can both Zhao and Huang daughters-in-law be satisfied? They discussed it for a long time on the plane but couldn’t come up with a solution, feeling utterly torn!

Fortunately, when they actually met with Huang Tianxuan’s family, they did not show their inner dilemma.

Soon, the plane arrived in Hangzhou, where Mrs. Huang, Gina, and Huang Tianxuan’s eldest brother greeted them with two cars. The two girls, Xu and Wu, avoided meeting them for the time being, planning to visit the Huang Mansion later in the evening as friends of Huang Tianxuan.

Upon arriving at the Huang family home, the Li family was welcomed with a luncheon to celebrate their visit.

At the banquet, Old Li first gave a barely convincing reason for why they only arranged for the meeting of both families after ’the rice was cooked.’ That reason was that Yu Huizhi was pregnant and they couldn’t manage any sooner, and he then apologized to Huang Jianzhong and Gina.

Their sincerity dissolved the small grudge in Mr. and Mrs. Huang’s hearts, making the atmosphere more cordial.

In reality, they weren’t too upset about it because Li Peifeng had shown his sincerity before, evidenced by the hundred million bride price he gave to Huang Tianxuan.

This amount might be nothing to the Huang family, but it was a significant sum for Li Peifeng. Both Huang Jianzhong and Gina were initially surprised by Li Peifeng’s financial capacity and determination when their daughter told them about it, but they believed it after seeing the transfer record.

Through this incident, they understood that Li was committed to marrying their daughter and taking responsibility, with the timing of the wedding just a matter of sooner or later.

Now, at the dining table, with both families seated together, the matter inevitably came up, with Li Peifeng bringing it up himself...

He knew that, as a filial son, he couldn’t embarrass his parents or make things difficult for the entire Huang family.

"Tianxuan and I have discussed before about setting the wedding around September or October, with the location in Hangzhou."

Li Peifeng said, "The weather will be mild, neither hot nor cold, making it suitable for a wedding. Most importantly, the baby will be half a year old by then, and Tianxuan’s body will have fully recovered, allowing her to appear in her best condition."

Huang Tianxuan silently nodded to show support. Choosing September or October for the wedding had an additional, unspeakable advantage: it avoided Zhao Qingge’s pregnancy term. Even if news leaked, it wouldn’t anger the other party to the point of affecting her health, ensuring the safety of mother and child and preventing Old Zhao from acting rashly, turning the joyous occasion into a tragedy.

"Qiyuan, what are your thoughts?"

Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi said nothing at first, but upon Huang Jianzhong’s inquiry, the former pretended to be open-minded and said, "We have no opinion... Let the kids, uh, the two kids decide."

Gina smiled and said, "Then it’s settled, but you still have to get the marriage certificate first, which is not a hassle and can be done in a few minutes."

Ordinarily, getting the marriage license is indeed as simple and swift as Gina said, but Li Peifeng is a special case and can’t do it that way, though there are other methods available. Moreover, before obtaining the certificate with Huang Tianxuan, he needs to first obtain certificates with Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning.

"We don’t care what method you use; just remember one thing: you haven’t divorced Qingge yet, so you absolutely can’t make a big deal out of this. If your relationship turns into a plaintiff and a defendant, your mom and I really won’t be able to help you."
