Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 785 Have A Wedding Together



Qi Xiu's presence was anticipated yet unexpected. Now that he was here, Qi Xiu was considered family.

That night after a pleasant dinner.

Pulling Qi Xiu to stand together, Fu Junqiu dropped a bomb. "Handing, Yanqiu, Qi Xiu and I have gotten our marriage license. We intend to have a wedding sometime this year."

She was not one to drag her feet. Once she had her mind set on something, she would see it through immediately.

Munching on an apple, Shen Xi nearly choked herself to death. She hacked violently.

Li Yuan, who sat beside her, immediately patted her back tenderly.

"What? You got a problem?" Fu Junqiu looked at Shen Xi.

"No, I don't." Shen Xi coughed while denying. It simply took her by a pleasant surprise. Why would she have a problem?

"What about you?" Fu Junqiu turned to the rest.

Fu Qingye cleared her throat. "So long as you're sure, Aunt Junqiu. I respect your decision."

Fu Qingxuan raised his hand. "I concur."

Fu Qingli nodded his head. It was not like their objection could change Aunt Junqiu's mind.

"Handing? Yanqiu?" Fu Junqiu's glare and voice simmered down when she looked at them.

"Your brother and I only want the best for you. We're happy if you're happy." Shangguan Yanqiu was taken aback by the couple taking it to city hall, but it did not take long for her to accept the fact.

Fu Yanqiu was forthcoming with her feelings. It was not out of character for her to get married right away if she loved somebody.

Fu Handing nodded his head. "Yanqiu is right. We can relax knowing you two are meant for each other."

"Brother, Sister-in-law, don't worry. I will look after her and make her happy." Qi Xiu solemnly gave his word.

Fu Junqiu held his hand tightly. Truth be told, she was nervous as this was her first step into marriage. Upon getting their stamp of approval, Fu Junqiu was relieved. "So then, Handing, you're the man of the house. If you could find someone to pick an auspicious date for us."

Although Shen Xi had not gotten rid of the catch in her throat, she could finally speak. Raising her hand, she weakly uttered, "I can pick an auspicious date for you."

Fu Junqiu then turned to Shen Xi. Her eyes lit up as it struck her. "Oh, you and Li Yuan are getting married this year. Why don't we have a wedding together?"

One to take charge, Song Wenye stood up and raised her hand too. "Don't forget us. Aunt Junqiu, me and Yu Yuanxi too."

They were tying the knot this year too. Besides, the wedding had to be held within two months, or else she would have to wait until she gave birth before walking down the aisle.

"That's right. You, too." As it dawned on Fu Junqiu, she made the call. "We three should have a wedding together, a mass wedding ceremony. It will be a spectacle and a lot easier to do it in one go. Otherwise, it'd be troublesome to go through multiple weddings in one year."

"Aunt Junqiu." Taking a glance at Shen Tang, Yu Qiubai got on his feet. "Count me and Tangtang in."

Shen Tang was caught off guard. Following his words, she did not dare to show her blushing face.

What was with Yu Qiubai jumping on the bandwagon? When did she agree to get married this year? He sure took the liberty to decide for her.

"Tangtang." Fu Junqiu knew a thing or two about what went on between the two. She looked at Shen Tang and asked, "Did you say yes?"

Fu Junqiu knew about Xixi and Li Yuan, as well as Lil' Ye and Yuanxi. However, this was the first time she heard that Tangtang was going to marry this guy. She had to be sure.

Grabbing Shen Tang's hand, Yu Qiubai looked at her with expectant eyes. "Tangtang."

Shen Tang glanced at her parents and little brother.

Shen Zhanglin cleared his throat. "You and Qiubai should be the ones to decide. It's your call."

It would be special and memorable to have a group wedding. The merrier the better.

Du Juan bobbed her head as she lovingly stared at the pair.

Mrs. Yu was embarrassed by her son's sudden proposal. It was not very nice to put Tangtang in the spotlight if she was unwilling. She apologetically glanced at Du Juan. "Qiubai doesn't know better. Sorry for the inconvenience."

Du Juan smiled. "Qiubai is a good kid. We can let the kids decide for themselves. Let's just leave it to them."

Shen Feng was upset, but he did not show it on his face. Not only did Yu Qiubai steal his sister away, but they wanted to be tied down so soon too.

Afraid that Shen Tang might be flustered, everyone in the living room kept quiet but they averted their gaze from her as they waited for her answer.

Shen Tang paused for a moment before murmuring, "Yes."

It was a blessing and a great thing to be able to wear a wedding dress and walk down the aisle with her best friends on the same day.

"That makes four of us." Fu Junqiu grinned from ear to ear. "If there are no objections, I'm going to start the planning. Well then, on to the discussion. Where should we have the wedding?"

The venue had to accommodate a lot of people. After all, they had a few public figures among them. It was still up for discussion whether it was going to be a public or private wedding.

"You lot can talk about it. We'll chat over there." Yun Jinping was the first to get up. Holding Shangguan Yanqiu's arm, they walked away smiling.

The others took off one after another.

In the end, Fu Qingli, Fu Qingye, Fu Qingxuan, and Shen Feng stayed behind to act as advisors.

Shen Xi turned back and looked at Fu Qingli. "Big Brother, how about we count you in as the groom as well?"

Fu Qingli furrowed his brows as a glint flashed past his eyes. Clearing his throat, he stood up and changed the subject. "I'm going to check on Guoguo and Lil' Zhen."

"Big Brother, the wedding plans would take at least two months. You can do it!" Shen Xi cheered him on.

After Qingli and Fu Hannian went missing, she could be sure of one thing – Lu Li did bear some feelings for Qingli.

On the other hand, Qingli had fallen in love with Lu Li.

"You can do it, Big Brother!" Song Wenye stood up and made a fist gesture to root for him.

Fu Qingli stopped in his tracks for a moment before resuming his way. Curling his lips into a faint smile, he fell into deep thought.

Perhaps he should really give it a try.

The plan for Shen Xi and Li Yuan's wedding was to be held at Li Mansion. Li Mansion was big enough to accommodate a mass wedding ceremony.

The few discussed at length and unanimously agreed to have the wedding at Li Mansion. Always there to stir the pot, Song Wenye whispered to get ready for one more couple to join them. That was of course if Qingli was able to get Lu Li onboard before the wedding.

The date was set on the 18th of March, which was also the 6th day of the second lunar month. They now only had a lead time of two months and six days to prepare.
