Chapter 379 I wish you will learn to take responsibility for yourself in the future.
Ye Wanyin was quick; she returned to the scene in less than twenty minutes.
She changed into an elegant cheongsam, with a very traditional and conservative cut, which strangely suited the temperament she exuded.
If Ye Wanyin wanted to create an image of a gentle and refined lady from a prominent family, then she has succeeded this time.
So Old Master Lu nodded approvingly at Lu Wangqian.
Lu Wangqian's mood did not improve much from this nod.
He knew that Old Master Lu was only superficially approving, but in reality, he must have a lot of dissatisfaction, which was just waiting to erupt later.
For example, the fact that Ye Wanyin, despite not being listed in the family genealogy, tried to use the Lu family's name to bully others...
Moreover, he had just heard about the necklace dispute between Hua Duoduo and Lu Xuening, and felt extremely foolish.
I never expected Ye Wanyin's friend to be so brainless... No matter how outrageous Lu Xuening's identity is, she still shares the surname Lu and is listed in the family genealogy.
Hua Duoduo participated in the entire ceremony, but like Ye Wanyin, she was unaware of the importance of the family genealogy.
Moreover, the necklace belonged to the third concubine, and Lu Wangqian really didn't want to cause any trouble with her over such a trivial matter.
His second uncle's speech was already annoying enough, but Lu Mingye's domineering manner and attempt to mediate only made him more irritable, and now the matter of the third concubine had to be added to the mix...
Lu Wangqian felt dizzy at the thought of endless lectures and ancestral rules.
He can't wait to go to Africa to mine.
On the other hand, although Lu Wangqian really wanted to skip the toast and do something else, he could only dream about it. It was too against the rules, so he had no choice but to accompany Ye Wanyin back to the lounge.
It turned out that even something as simple as changing clothes could upset him.
The reason is simple: the cheongsam was packaged in a gift box.
Lu Wangqian wasn't here before, so he naturally didn't know that this thing appeared later. He only noticed that Ye Wanyin's eyes were a little strange.
But Ye Wanyin quickly opened the box and checked it, then picked up the clothes and asked the bridesmaid to help her change. Lu Wangqian did not notice anything else wrong during this time.
But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this cheongsam didn't look like the one Ye Wanyin had prepared, nor did it seem like a backup option brought by the styling team.
Given Lu Wangqian's domineering and possessive personality, he would naturally suspect that some other man was eyeing his young wife. However, he had no evidence, so he could only remain silent.
Actually, he wasn't wrong in his suspicions.
While Ye Wanyin was quickly checking, she found a small card and immediately held it in her hand. After the bridesmaid helped her change her clothes, she told the bridesmaid to leave first and then began to examine the card carefully.
"Happy marriage. Best wishes for our collaboration. -X"
Cooperation... The person who mentioned this word recently seems to be Song Taotao.
Ye Wanyin did not express her opinion at the time, and the other party was not as calm as before when she had to pretend to be strong in front of her. Sure enough, Song Taotao had a powerful backer.
This X...
Ye Wanyin looked at her cheongsam in the mirror.
Based on her experience, she could naturally tell that this cheongsam was not a mass-produced item; it must have been custom-made by a master craftsman a long time ago to achieve this quality.
That's secondary. The most important thing is that the cheongsam fits her perfectly.
This is terrifying, meaning that Ye Wanyin's life is being monitored by some hidden mastermind.
Ye Wanyin roughly sorted things out but couldn't think of anyone suspicious.
Now is not the time to investigate this matter. Since the other party sent Song Taotao out and gave her a gift, Ye Wanyin will assume that the other party wants to make friendly contact.
Am I so charming that someone has a crush on me? That would be perfectly normal, and everything would make sense.
If someone could give a cheongsam as a gift at a wedding ceremony after having a crush on someone, Ye Wanyin was convinced that this guy was deeply in love. Besides, he must have impeccable taste and be financially well-off.
So she decided to get through today first, and then slowly get in touch with the other person.
If it's suitable, then she isn't... unable to remarry.
The card couldn't be seen by Lu Wangqian, so Ye Wanyin stuffed it into the box containing the diamond necklace.
In short, she and Lu Wangqian returned to the scene with their own thoughts, only to find in despair that they had to go back to Ye Sanqing's table to continue toasting.
Ye Wanyin dared not cause any more trouble, and silently returned to her original position, picked up her wine glass, and prepared to toast Ye Jin'er.
Hua Duoduo's attention was immediately drawn to this, but Ye Wanyin didn't notice. She was smiling at Ye Jin'er and said, "Second Brother, I'm so glad you could come today. I'd like to propose a toast to you, thank you for taking care of me all these years... We'll be together forever..."
"Stop." Ye Jin'er immediately stopped her from continuing.
It's terrifying to be her brother and sister forever. Where did this curse come from?
"You..." Ye Jin'er raised her glass solemnly and said, "I wish you will learn to take responsibility for yourself in the future."
His tone sounded more like a threat than a blessing, but that didn't stop Ye Wanyin from immediately downing a glass of wine with tears welling up in her eyes.
Ye Jin'er glanced at Lu Wangqian.
He believed that Lu Wangqian was probably not affected by Ye Wanyin's rumors, otherwise he would not be maintaining this decent expression.
So he didn't plan to settle scores with Ye Wanyin right now. Otherwise, this night would probably be a bit long.
Lu Wangqian didn't say anything to him, but simply smiled and offered a toast in silence.
Just kidding. If he gets another hold of something and starts yelling about starting a war again, would that give Lu Mingye another chance to get involved?
Ye Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief after Ye Jin'er passed by.
Then she wiped away her tears and said to Sheng Hanyu with a smile, "Teacher Sheng..."
Sheng Hanyu shook her head. "That's not right."
Ye Wanyin's expression was slightly puzzled.
She had carefully crafted that pitiful, tearful smile, yet Sheng Hanyu remained completely unaffected?
Gong Yao, resting his chin on his hand, casually spoke up, "Miss Ye... Pfft, sorry, I'm not used to that title. Luckily, I've changed it now. Well, Mrs. Lu, it seems you've made a mistake."
"What is it?" Ye Wanyin really had no idea what they were talking about.
What was wrong with toasting Sheng Hanyu after Ye Jin'er?
"You forgot, the toast to Miss Ye just now was unsuccessful, so we have to try again," Hua Duoduo said quietly from the side.
"Moreover, these two represent the Gong family, and the heir of the Gong family... is not Young Master Sheng, but Miss Gong."
No one expected that Hua Duoduo would suddenly become normal and actually understand social etiquette, especially Ye Wanyin.
Ye Wanyin thought to herself, "What are you trying to show off for now? Do you think you know anything about high society etiquette?"
But she had to admit that because of the ice bucket incident, she had panicked for a moment and had indeed made some mistakes.
The reason why Ye Sanqing and Ye Jin'er are treated the same is because the Ye family currently has no heir, and the person in charge, Ye Yifan, is not present. Therefore, it doesn't matter who they are.
In addition, Ye Wanyin still carries the name of the Ye family, so it can be said that family members are more casual with each other, and there is no major problem.
But Sheng Hanyu and Gong Yao... Ye Wanyin subconsciously toasted the older man, but forgot that in the rules of wealthy families, Gong Yao's status was slightly higher.
Even though she is young and a woman, she is the heir after all, while Sheng Hanyu can only be considered as accompanying her.
Although she was annoyed that Hua Duoduo had reminded her, Ye Wanyin had no choice but to raise her wine glass to Ye Sanqing and toast him before turning to Gong Yao.
