Chapter 569: Cousin's Wedding! The Woman Who Suddenly Appeared!

"Boss!"

"Boss, why are you here?"

"..."

Jiang Xiaoyue, Xu Qin, and Li Xiaoyun quickly reacted.

"My cousin is getting married, how could I not come?" Su Yang said helplessly. "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and pick up the red envelopes!"

"Oh!"

Su Yang also quickly crouched down to help them pick up the red envelopes from the ground.

If they didn't pick them up now, they would all be snatched by others...

Jiang Xiaoyue moved to Su Yang's side and asked in surprise, "Boss, He Zhiheng is your cousin?"

The other two bridesmaids also pricked up their ears.

"Yes!"

Xu Qin gritted her teeth slightly. "That Wang Juan!"

Li Xiaoyun also muttered, "Wang Juan did such a good job of keeping this a secret!"

They lived in the same staff dormitory as Wang Juan.

As the wedding date approached, they noticed that Wang Juan was in a very good mood.

They assumed Wang Juan was very satisfied with He Zhiheng.

They also felt He Zhiheng was decent; though he wasn't handsome and came from the countryside.

But at twenty-five, he was already a junior supervisor at the Jufan Holdings headquarters.

He had a very promising future!

But they never dreamed that He Zhiheng had this kind of relationship with the big boss!

This was no longer just a matter of having a promising future!

This was clearly having a fucking backer!

And this backer was both high-ranking and solid!

For no reason, the three girls suddenly felt a bit uneasy...

Wang Juan was indeed quite good-looking, but they felt they weren't bad either!

Su Yang didn't know what these three girls were thinking. Seeing that the red envelopes on the ground had been snatched up, he distributed the ones in his hand to the three of them.

By this time, his cousin had already brought the bride out.

The most difficult task of fetching the bride was considered complete!

Later, when they were almost home, He Zhiheng was pulled out by relatives and friends for some pranks along the way.

However, with Su Yang watching nearby, those relatives and friends... including Cousin Wei Yang, didn't go too far. They just used some eggs and flour, making his cousin look slightly disheveled.

Accompanied by the crackling of firecrackers, the master of ceremonies led them through the local traditional rural wedding process. Everything was full of joy.

To be honest, seeing his cousin's happy face, Su Yang felt somewhat moved.

He saw his nephew running around the wedding scene with two other children, and it was like seeing himself and his cousin when they were little.

He had also run around at other people's weddings with his cousin, even going to pick up unexploded firecrackers.

He had also run all over the village with his little cousin!

When his cousin was little, he was very clingy, just like those children who liked playing with his nephew.

Su Yang had taken him to blow up cow dung, dog bowls, dry latrines, fish ponds, and even his family's water tank!

He had taken him to raid bird nests, roast sweet potatoes, and dig up old graves... mainly because he liked watching archaeology when he was a kid!

In fact, they never dug up anything.

Just as Su Yang was lost in thought while looking at his cousin on the wedding stage, a hand suddenly rested on his shoulder.

He couldn't help but shudder.

Then he noticed his father, sitting next to him, had an expression like he'd seen a ghost!

Tao Xue also stared blankly at the person behind him, looking very surprised.

Su Yang glanced at the hand; it was smooth and white, likely belonging to a beautiful woman.

Turning around, he saw that glamorous face. "Chen Li? Why are you here?"

Chen Li said calmly, "Your cousin invited me!"

Good heavens!

Su Yang couldn't help but complain in his heart: That total trap!

He looked up at his cousin. Standing on the wedding stage, He Zhiheng silently lowered his head.

He had obviously noticed the situation here as well!

Tao Xue quickly greeted her, "Sister Chen Li, hello!"

"Mm." Chen Li nodded, then smiled at Su Yang's parents. "Auntie, Uncle, hello. It's been a long time!"

"Yes!"

"Long time no see!"

Su Yang's parents didn't know the inside story, so they were a bit embarrassed.

Chen Li pointed out, "The colleagues He Zhiheng invited are all at that table!"

"Then I'll go see them!" Su Yang said to Tao Xue. "Tao Xue, you wait for me here!"

Tao Xue nodded obediently.

Su Yang stood up and followed Chen Li away.

Looking at Chen Li walking ahead, Su Yang quickly regained his composure.

His surprise earlier was just because it was sudden and he wasn't mentally prepared.

Besides, Chen Li obviously wasn't there to cause trouble!

Chen Li asked in a low voice, "You brought Tao Xue back with you?"

"Yes."

"She must be very well-liked by your parents, right?"

"Of course not!" Su Yang denied. "When my mom found out it wasn't you who came back, she wasn't in a very good mood!"

"Then will you take me back for the New Year?"

"Can I take both of you back together?"

Chen Li gave Su Yang a sharp, annoyed look.

Fortunately, Su Yang soon reached the employees' table.

Although his cousin was relatively introverted, he still had a few friends in the company.

Combined with his colleagues from the same office, they definitely had to come and show their support for the wedding.

Even if they couldn't make it in person, the gift money would be sent.

The internal gift money within the entire Jufan system was two hundred yuan, so the burden wouldn't be too heavy!

As soon as they saw Su Yang arrive, the whole table of people stood up:

"Boss!"

"Boss, why are you here?"

"Boss!"

"..."

Su Yang explained simply, "Because the groom is my cousin!"

Everyone looked at each other, and some suddenly realized—no wonder He Zhiheng was promoted so quickly!

The group wanted to make a seat for Su Yang, but he politely refused with a smile.

He was afraid they would feel uncomfortable if he sat with them!

Just as Su Yang was about to leave, Chen Li followed him. "I'm going to your table!"

"This..."

"Don't worry, I won't cause trouble!"

Su Yang glanced at the employees behind him, then at Chen Li's expression, and finally nodded. "Alright then!"

When Su Yang left with Chen Li, Su Yang's mother was a bit worried.

She still quite liked this first girlfriend who had come home with her son for the New Year.

Although she was a bit older than her son, she was sensible and hardworking.

And with those wide hips, she looked fertile!

She whispered to Tao Xue, "Do you know Chen Li?"

"I do!"

Tao Xue nodded honestly.

Seeing the strange look in Su Yang's mother's eyes, Tao Xue felt she might have been misunderstood!

But how could she explain it?

Should she say it was all her son's fault?

Su Yang's cousin-in-law pulled her uncle's arm and whispered, "Who is that Chen Li?"

Su Yang's father said helplessly, "It seems she's your cousin's ex-girlfriend!"

Su Yang's cousin-in-law suddenly understood!

Just then, Su Yang returned with Chen Li.

Chen Li carried a plastic stool and placed it right next to Su Yang. "Auntie, can I sit here?"

"Of course you can!"

What else could Su Yang's mother say?

So, Chen Li and Tao Xue flanked Su Yang on both sides.

The atmosphere at the table became more or less strange!

Su Yang's cousin-in-law pursed her lips and whispered in her husband's ear, "Cousin is really popular!"

She understood completely now and was happy to enjoy the drama!

She actually quite liked this cousin, since he was good-looking!

His cousin had even shared stakes in their family's Jiuxiang Hotpot Chain.

Their family received several thousand in dividends every month, occasionally even over ten thousand... She liked Su Yang even more now!

Sometimes she even wanted to persuade her husband to go to Rongcheng and work with Su Yang.

Didn't you see how quickly He Zhiheng made a name for himself following Su Yang? He even bought a house and settled down in Rongcheng.

But she was also afraid her husband wouldn't be able to swallow his pride!

Wei Yang took a deep breath and said, "Yeah!"

His wife whispered again, "Are you very envious?"

"How is that possible?" Wei Yang shook his head repeatedly. "I only love you!"

"I'll take that as the truth!"

"It's the absolute truth!"

"..."

Soon, chopsticks were handed out, and the banquet officially began.

Chen Li asked for an extra set of utensils and sat down quietly.

"Eat some shrimp!"

Tao Xue helped Su Yang peel a shrimp, dipped it in wasabi sauce, and placed it in Su Yang's bowl.

Chen Li picked up a piece of soft-shell turtle and put it in Su Yang's bowl. "Eat more of this to nourish yourself!"

"Auntie, you eat too!"

"Dad, have a piece of radish!"

"..."

Chen Li stared blankly at Tao Xue, who made a face at her, looking very playful!

Almost at the same time, both of them felt a sharp pain in their thighs, and then they both looked at Su Yang.

They quickly quieted down; they didn't want to make Su Yang angry!

Seeing this, Su Yang's parents also breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after, He Zhiheng brought Wang Juan over to toast. When they reached Su Yang, He Zhiheng looked embarrassed.

He had been too busy yesterday and had only slept for two hours today... He had forgotten about inviting Chen Li.

But to his relief, his cousin seemed to have stabilized the two women beside him.

As expected, his cousin was the strongest.

There was no problem he couldn't solve!

Wang Juan also noticed the issue with the two women next to Su Yang, but she still very happily called him "Cousin Su Yang!"

From now on, he was her cousin... The feeling of calling the boss "Cousin" wasn't bad at all!

After Su Yang had eaten his fill and saw that Chen Li and Tao Xue were also mostly finished, he said goodbye to his relatives and parents at the table and left with them.

When Chen Li and Tao Xue left, Tao Xue even took Chen Li's hand.

Chen Li hesitated for a moment but didn't refuse.

Strictly speaking, the two of them were closer than typical best friends; they were mahjong buddies who had played together!

Wei Yang was sitting directly opposite Su Yang, and seeing this, his mind went a bit blank!

He had heard what his wife asked his uncle earlier and knew that Chen Li was Su Yang's ex-girlfriend and Tao Xue was his current girlfriend...

Su Yang's cousin-in-law had just picked up her bowl to drink some silver ear and glutinous rice ball soup, and seeing this scene, her eyes widened.

Then she quickly lowered her head, coughing violently before finally coughing out a rice ball!

She looked up, staring at the two women walking further away like best friends, and asked her husband, "Did you see that? They're actually holding hands!"

"Yeah."

"What's going on?"

Wei Yang took a deep breath. "How should I know?"

Su Yang's cousin-in-law still couldn't wrap her head around it.

At first, she thought Tao Xue, as Chen Li's best friend, had stolen her friend's boyfriend, but Chen Li was still deeply in love with Su Yang...

But now, seeing Chen Li and Tao Xue acting like good sisters, her brain couldn't process it.

These two were just competing at the dinner table!

Should they be hostile toward each other?

Even if they didn't directly start a fight, pulling each other's hair or ripping each other's clothes, at the very least, they couldn't be like sisters, right?

The world was starting to feel strange to her!

Su Yang led the two women out of the banquet hall. Turning around, he saw Tao Xue holding Chen Li's hand, and the bit of resentment in his heart mostly dissipated.

"Sister Chen Li, where are you going next?"

"Are you trying to kick me out?"

"No, I just can't exactly invite you to my house as a guest, can I?"

"It's not like you can't!" Just as Su Yang felt helpless, Chen Li changed her tune. "I'm just kidding. But when are you going back to the company?"

Su Yang thought for a moment and said, "I'll go back on the third."

"Come to my house as a guest on the third!" Chen Li glanced at Tao Xue beside her. "You can bring Tao Xue, but you'll have to appear as my boyfriend then. Since I didn't bring you back this time, my parents have been nagging again."

"Fine!"

Su Yang agreed immediately.

Tao Xue suddenly had a wild idea. "Then can I play the role of the bad woman who steals her best friend's boyfriend at her best friend's parents' house?"

Chen Li immediately gave her a hard flick on the forehead!

What kind of insane train of thought was this?

Even if she liked excitement, she couldn't push it onto her!
