A week later——
Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue finally ushered in the day of wedding rehearsal.
Afternoon——
After a few people had lunch, they planned to go to the wedding venue to go through the formalities.
Arriving at the venue, Cai Xiaotang found that the place was completely different from the last time he visited.
"Wow... isn't this so beautiful?"
She looked at the lawn where the official ceremony will be held tomorrow and the surrounding decorations in amazement, and couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
Jiang Baobao suddenly thought of something and reminded her in her ear: "By the way, Xiaotang, I forgot to tell you that Li Xiao will be here soon..."
"ah?"
The smile on Cai Xiaotang's face froze, and she subconsciously asked, "What is he doing here?"
This week, the two of them had no contact.
Cai Xiaotang also rarely mentioned Li Xiao in front of Jiang Baobao. Only when she asked, she would give a few perfunctory words.
After saying that, she immediately realized that she had said something wrong and hurriedly made up for it: "Well... I mean, isn't he very busy recently? How can he have time to rehearse? And there is nothing to do with him tomorrow, right? Just come and participate..."
"He will lead Mo Bai and the others into the venue tomorrow, and he will also come to confirm their location."
Jiang Baobao explained, and then looked at Cai Xiaotang with some confusion: "Aren't you happy that Li Xiao is here? You haven't seen each other for a week, right? Don't you miss him at all?"
Cai Xiaotang:......
What does that bastard have on his mind?
waste time!
Cai Xiaotang complained silently in her heart, but she casually found an excuse and said: "It's not bad..."
As she spoke, she hurriedly pointed into the distance and changed the subject: "Look at Tiantian! How happy it is to hold a bouquet!"
As expected, Jiang Baobao looked in the direction of her finger.
At a glance, I saw three little guys, talking and laughing, not knowing what they were talking about.
In tomorrow's wedding, the three of them will serve as flower girls.
Mo Bai and Yan Bao will appear holding a ring each.
Tiantian stood between the two, holding the bride's bouquet.
Then Li Xiao brought him up.
"Mommy!"
The three little guys felt Jiang Baobao's gaze and ran over with a smile.
Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang immediately started chatting and laughing with the little guys.
Just after saying a few words, Mo Bai suddenly pointed at the entrance with sharp eyes and said loudly: "Daddy and third uncle are here! And Uncle Gu!"
Cai Xiaotang was stunned when he heard this and looked over subconsciously.
Just met Li Xiao's eyes looking over.
When their eyes met, her heart suddenly ached and she looked away instantly.
Li Xiao also saw her dodge, but he could only sigh helplessly in his heart.
In just a few seconds, the three of them came over.
Everyone is here and the rehearsal officially begins.
Cai Xiaotang and Gu Ruohan, as the best man and bridesmaid respectively, stood in their fixed positions.
The three little guys were also led aside by Li Xiao, waiting to enter.
Soon, everyone went through the process.
After confirming tomorrow's clothing, rings and the most important on-site security, the group left.
Gu Ruohan took the initiative and suggested: "Since there are so many people today and there is a wedding tomorrow, how about we go out for a meal together in the evening? President Li, I flew back from abroad specifically to be your best man. Why should you invite me?" Shall I have a meal?”
"I have no opinion."
Jiang Baobao was the first to raise his hand in approval.
Cai Xiaotang also echoed: "I don't have any objection either."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but subconsciously glance at Li Xiao next to her, and then quickly looked away.
"It's time to have a meal together."
Li Xiao also said.
The opinions of several people were surprisingly unified, and the three little guys were naturally more willing. The group of people went directly to a high-end restaurant nearby.
As soon as he sat down, Gu Ruohan waved his hand and said directly: "Since we are all here, let's not go back until we get drunk tonight!"
"If you want to drink it, drink it yourself. I have something to do tomorrow."
Li Beijue ruthlessly poured cold water on him.
When Gu Ruohan heard this, his face immediately fell: "No, I won't come home until I'm drunk. You can drink less, but at least have two drinks with us, right? Uncle, don't you think so?"
Gu Ruohan wanted to win over Li Xiao as a "comrade-in-arms".
Li Xiao shook his head in a funny way. Thinking that he would be the best man tomorrow, he subconsciously wanted to persuade him.
But before he could say anything, he heard Cai Xiaotang suddenly say: "How's your drinking capacity?"
She was obviously asking Gu Ruohan.
Gu Ruohan and Cai Xiaotang were not familiar with each other, but as soon as he heard her question, he instantly felt that he had found a kindred spirit.
"Um...Third Aunt? Can you drink?"
He was a little confused about what to call Cai Xiaotang.
Cai Xiaotang's expression froze: "You should just call me by my name, I don't mind."
Gu Ruohan raised his eyebrows, and seeing that the others didn't seem to have any objections, he shouted in a familiar voice: "Xiaotang, shall I have someone serve the wine?"
Li Xiao's eyebrows jumped sharply, and the hand holding the wine glass suddenly tightened.
Sugar?
Is this guy Gu Ruohan too familiar?
He felt a little sore in his heart, but he knew that he had no position to interfere, so he could only remain silent.
However, Jiang Baobao advised uneasily: "Do you really want to drink? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get up tomorrow?"
"Don't worry, baby, I know it well..."
When Cai Xiaotang saw Li Xiao, she felt heartbroken and couldn't help but want to drink two drinks.
Jiang Baobao had no choice but to stop blocking him and asked the waiter to bring two bottles of lower-alcohol red wine.
As soon as the wine was served, Cai Xiaotang and Gu Ruohan immediately poured a glass each.
Cai Xiaotang picked it up and drank it.
But before their lips touched, Li Xiao suddenly said: "Drink slowly, don't drink too hard."
Cai Xiaotang paused slightly, but couldn't help but feel a little angry.
What does it have to do with him to drink how he likes?
Are you so nosy?
Her eyes flickered for a moment, deliberately pretending not to hear, and drank the red wine in her glass in one breath.
Li Xiao suddenly felt helpless.
However, Gu Ruohan was still cheering from the side: "You really have a good capacity for drinking! Come on, come on, I'll pour you another drink!"
As he spoke, he poured another half glass of wine for Cai Xiaotang.
Li Xiao was speechless and could only keep warning Gu Ruohan with his eyes.
However, the other party did not receive his signal at all.
Cai Xiaotang had wine in her cup again and wanted to drink again immediately.
Li Xiao simply held her hand.
"The food hasn't been served yet. If you drink so much first, you'll get drunk."
He frowned slightly, his expression a little serious.
Cai Xiaotang glanced at the hand he was holding on her and thought it was ridiculous.
What on earth was he thinking?
If you don’t want yourself to misunderstand, then you don’t have to worry so much!
She paused slightly, then stretched out her hand to pry Li Xiao's hand away.
"I know it myself and won't get drunk."
Her tone was lukewarm as she spoke and drank another glass.
Jiang Baobao watched the interaction between the two calmly, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Xiaotang and Li Xiao... don't look like they're okay...
