127: Marriage

Xu Xin also breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Qiao Yu return unscathed. The fact that Qiao Yu was back and showed no signs of anything unusual was enough to explain the situation.

It seemed Qiao Yu's identity had been recognized by the Family elders, meaning Xu Xin and Luo Feng's relationship could proceed without worry.

After several hours of revelry, it was about time for the party to break up.

Although Mu Mu was still desperately trying to get Qiao Yu's contact information, he refused on the grounds of military secrets. To the once-confident Mu Mu, this was like a bolt from the blue, and her whole world seemed to turn gray.

There was nothing Qiao Yu could do; he couldn't lead her on.

After all the friends had left, it was time for Luo Feng and the Xu Family Members to discuss the actual wedding date. Since the marriage had been personally brokered by Qiao Yu, he naturally had a seat at the table.

Both parties were deliberating in the same place where Qiao Yu had spoken with the Xu Family earlier. This hotel was an asset of the Xu Family, so its privacy and security were beyond question.

At this moment, Luo Fengs Father and Mother sat in the main seats alongside Qiao Yu, while Old Master Xu sat facing the three of them. Luo Feng and Xu Xin stood off to their respective sides.

This scene gave Luo Feng a strange feeling. Previously, he had always been the one taking care of Qiao Yu, but now Qiao Yu was actually sitting in an elder's position.

Although Luo Feng felt a sense of unreality, Qiao Yu's strength was undeniable. It was also through Qiao Yu that Luo Feng and his Family had gained the qualifications to negotiate with the Xu Family, so he naturally had no objections.

However, the current situation was a bit awkward. It was the first time Luo Fengs Father and Mother had experienced such a scene; while they weren't so intimidated that they couldn't speak, they were clearly ill at ease.

After all, this was the first time they were arranging a wedding for their child, and they were quite lacking in experience. Consequently, they subconsciously let the weight of the conversation rest on Qiao Yu.

Old Master Xu maintained his usual kind and gentle appearance, quietly watching Luo Fengs Father and Mother, as well as Qiao Yu.

Luo Hongguo subconsciously nudged Qiao Yu with his elbow, signaling him to speak.

Qiao Yu smacked his lips. This was something parents should decide, so why had he become the one in full control? Nevertheless, since it had all started because of him, he had to take up the mantle.

“Ahem, Old Master Xu, since it's settled that neither side has any objections to Luo Feng and Xu Xin's marriage, let's proceed as quickly as possible. Everyone's life needs to get back on track afterward. An early marriage means they can start carrying on the Family lines sooner.”

Qiao Yu smiled faintly, the weight of his words sounding like a senior elder urging a Junior to get married.

“Cough, cough...”

When Qiao Yu mentioned carrying on the Family lines, Luo Feng's toes curled in embarrassment. If an elder said such a thing, it might seem natural, but having a peer say it in front of elders felt like a total social death.

Xu Xin's face turned bright red instantly.

Hearing this, Luo Fengs Father and Mother finally found their voices.

“In-law, my godson is right. We must let Xiao Feng and Xin Xin marry as soon as possible to give us a healthy baby boy or girl. That way, both families' Bloodlines can be continued.”

“Originally, with Xiao Feng being a Martial Artist and fighting out there, we parents were always living in fear. On one hand, we worry about his safety, and on the other, we worry that Xiao Feng hasn't left behind his own Bloodline. If any accident were to happen...”

The words of Luo Fengs Father and Mother were simple and unadorned, yet they represented the deepest, long-held wishes of these elders.

Old Master Xu naturally agreed, but his perspective was slightly different from that of Luo Fengs Father and Mother.

Given Qiao Yu's strength, an early marriage and children meant the Xu Family would be more deeply tied to this 'Great Buddha' that was Qiao Yu. As their relationship deepened, the benefits for the Xu Family would be immense.

“War God Qiao is absolutely right. How about we set the wedding for the end of this month? There are still about ten days left, which is enough time to prepare.”

Old Master Xu inquired cautiously.

Qiao Yu thought about it and nodded in agreement. It wouldn't take up too much time anyway; as long as it was resolved this month, Luo Feng wouldn't be delayed.

“Alright. For the specific details, Old Master Xu, you can discuss them with Uncle Luo, Aunt Lan, and Luo Feng. After all, I'm not the one getting married; we can't have everything decided by me, or it'll be a mess.”

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Qiao Yu didn't want to bother with the remaining trivialities. He decided to be a hands-off manager, as he was only doing this to earn a favor.

Thus, under the discussion between the Luo Family Members and the Xu Family Members, the wedding was quickly finalized for the end of March.

As for the venue, they had originally planned to hold it at an international hotel under the Xu Family, but when news of Luo Feng's marriage reached the Dojo of Limits, it received strong support from them.

In particular, Jiang Nian, Uncle Wu, and Zhuge Tao, the heads of the Dojo of Limits, took it very seriously. Luo Feng's demonstrated strength and potential had already been recognized by the Dojo's upper management, which significantly boosted the status of these recommenders within the Dojo. Naturally, they wanted to make things as convenient as possible for Luo Feng.

The management of the Dojo of Limits even invited Luo Feng to hold the wedding at the Dojo. With the grandeur of the Dojo of Limits, the Xu Family naturally couldn't compete.

Luo Feng was more than happy to oblige. With the prestige of the Dojo of Limits behind it, his wedding to Xu Xin would essentially have the support of every Martial Artist in the entire Dojo. Who wouldn't be happy with such a massive, free boost to their reputation?

Because of this connection, the Xu Family could also better conduct business with the Dojo of Limits in Jiangnan Base City. It was another win-win situation.

Time flew by, and the end of March approached. The wedding of Luo Feng and Xu Xin drew closer, but while some were happy, others were worried.

Those worried were naturally the other consortia of the HR Alliance, especially Wang Xingping of the Wang Family in Jingdu. He never expected the Xu Family would actually let Xu Xin marry out.

He had also heard that the Xu Family had gained the recognition of a War God Martial Artist, which made him pace around in anxiety. Upon learning this, Wang Xingping immediately began to clear Xu Xin's name, fearing the War God might find some clues and target him.

Fortunately, Wang Xingping's information was timely and his actions swift, so the slander against Xu Xin hadn't spread too far. After spending over ten days on pins and needles, Wang Xingping could only choose to give the Xu Family a grand gift, essentially partnering all his business dealings in Jiangnan Base City with the Xu Family in an attempt to gain Xu Gang's forgiveness.

However, things would not go as Wang Xingping wished. No one knew what kind of blow the Wang Family suffered after that; they only gradually declined.

Finally, at the end of March, witnessed by many members of the HR Alliance and the Dojo of Limits, Luo Feng and Xu Xin were married at the Dojo of Limits in Yangzhou City.
