"It's all thanks to the Tang Family's good upbringing that Xiao Yue has turned out to be such an outstanding girl," Zheng Chunhong was practically praising Granny Tang to the skies. Granny Tang was chuckling joyfully, her eyes squinting into slits from her wide smile. After seeing Zheng Chunhong off, Granny Tang began to ask Tang Zhengyuan if the entire Tang Family was going. "Mom, Xiao Yue said she's not hosting a banquet, but as members of the Tang Family, should we go?" Tang Zhengyuan now held his niece Tang Yue in especially high regard. "Granny, Dad's right. I heard that Si Yu has found his biological father. We should definitely go to bolster Xiao Yue's standing, right?" Tang Xian walked in from outside, grinning from ear to ear. Having heard that Tang Zhengyuan had returned, Tang Xian had hurried back as well, just in time to catch Tang Zhengyuan's words. "Dad, our good days now, we owe them to Second Uncle and Third Uncle. We can't let Second Uncle's daughter have a wedding that's too modest, right?" At home, Tang Xian had opened a factory producing chopsticks, which sold well and made good money. Especially now that he had become a father himself, Tang Xian had matured a lot. Of course, the gratitude towards Tang Zhengde and Tang Mingli's families was also deeply etched in his heart. "Xiao Xian is right," nodded Tang Zhengyuan. "Mom, I feel the same way. We are Xiao Yue's maternal family. If her own family doesn't show up in force, others might think she has no one on her side." What Granny Tang loved most was to see her sons getting along. She asked, "What about the factory's business then?" "I'll be absent from the factory for a few days, it's no issue," Tang Zhengyuan said with a smile. "Zhengde mentioned that the restaurant is planning to close for a few days as well." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel{f}ire.net "Given Zhengde's love for his daughter, nothing in the world is as important as Xiao Yue's wedding." Tang Zhengyuan remembered how Tang Zhengde used to protect Tang Yue like the apple of his eye, even when she didn't acknowledge him as her father back then. Not to mention now that Tang Yue recognizes Tang Zhengde, calling him 'Dad' every time. It's not just Tang Zhengde who feels guilty toward Tang Yue, even he, as her granduncle, feels he has wronged her. Initially, because of Wang Aihua, although he had not directly mistreated Tang Yue, he had indirectly allowed Wang Aihua to treat her poorly. "In Second Brother's heart, Xiao Yue is his own daughter," Granny Tang also knew Tang Zhengde's nature well. "Then Zhenghong will certainly go. Youwei has already stayed in Jing City for half a year. And as for Zheng Yue..." "All of us brothers and sisters will go. We can't leave out Zheng Yue," Tang Zhengyuan said. "That's true." Granny Tang also felt helpless about Tang Zhengyue; instead of improving, her life seemed to be getting worse. Tang Zhenghong initially didn't even live as well as Tang Zhengyue's family, but now, Tang Zhenghong had moved to the county and even purchased a house there. Zhao Youwei had become successful, and his two daughters were becoming more beautiful by the day. Only Tang Zhengyue, her life was getting worse with each passing day. She even came to borrow money a few days ago. Granny Tang felt distressed, but she couldn't stand to see her daughter suffer. In Wangjiang County, the Tang Family was finalizing the number of people going to Jing City, while the Mo Family was quite amenable. The Mo Family had always been united, and with the only nephew getting married, of course, the whole family would be present. It wasn't just the Mo Family; even the married Mo Xiaorui along with Luo Wen and their son Luo Xuan were going. Mo Xiaoyu in Sea City, upon learning about the event, immediately agreed and set the time to head to Jing City. Mo Xiaoyu was living in Sea City alone with her child, but Deng Yuhua and her husband called every day, and they visited Sea City regularly. Even during their last trip to Jing City, Deng Yuhua and her husband made time to see Mo Xiaoyu. Now Mo Xiaoyu's business was doing better and better. Aside from lacking a male head of the household, her life with Mo Tiantian was also colorful and full. Tang Yue was busy, barely feeling time passing by. Before she knew it, August 3rd was drawing closer. Sometimes, when she saw Zhang Hualian busily preparing the dowry, Tang Yue truly felt that her own marriage was imminent. "Sister Xiao Yue, let's have dinner together tonight." Lian Qingyang's call came through, and Tang Yue suddenly realized that she hadn't seen Lian Qingyang for a long time. "Sure." Tang Yue didn't refuse. She hesitated about whether to tell Lian Qingyang about the wedding. She recognized Lian Qingyang, but she didn't want to acknowledge Lian He. When it came to the matter of marriage, she agreed to have a meal with both families, but she definitely didn't want to see Lian He. On such a happy day, she wanted to be joyful and blessed, without having to see people she didn't want to see. Xiangwei Restaurant was a place Tang Yue had visited several times before. The food was on the spicier side, which she liked. "Sister Xiao Yue, over here." Lian Qingyang had already been waiting at the entrance. Upon seeing Tang Yue, he excitedly pulled her inside while saying, "Sister Xiao Yue, I want you to meet a friend of mine today." "Someone else is here?" Tang Yue didn't expect anyone else. On the way there, she thought about how Lian Qingyang had been insistently saying he'd introduce her to someone even better than Mo Siyu. She had taken it as a joke. Could it be that Lian Qingyang was serious? Tang Yue couldn't help but laugh and cry at the thought. If it had been anyone else, she wouldn't have even bothered going, but this was Lian Qingyang, her half-brother by the same father. After some thought, she decided to meet him, treating it as an opportunity to make a new friend. Upon entering the private room, she saw a man sitting inside who appeared to be working with some documents. His profile looked slightly familiar. "Brother Jin, my Sister Xiao Yue is here," Lian Qingyang introduced with joy. "Sister Xiao Yue, this is a brother who grew up with me, Jin Yu, a few years older than me. He now owns an entertainment company, and many celebrities are signed with his company." "Brother Jin, this is my Sister Xiao Yue, Tang Yue," said Lian Qingyang proudly. "I told you my Sister Xiao Yue is beautiful, didn't I?" Jin Yu looked up and saw Tang Yue. Both, Tang Yue and Jin Yu, were a bit shocked. "You know each other?" Lian Qingyang was the most surprised one. Brother Jin was the kind that either stayed in Sea City or traveled all over the country; how could he know Sister Xiao Yue? "Yes, we know each other," Jin Yu said with a smile. "We met in Su City, on the train. Your Sister Xiao Yue even helped me get my wallet back." "What a coincidence?" Lian Qingyang couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder and cheerfully beckoned Tang Yue to sit down. "Sister Xiao Yue, you didn't tell me." "I didn't know you knew Mr. Jin," Tang Yue cleared her throat, feeling quite fateful too. Lian Qingyang glared at Jin Yu, fuming, "Brother Jin, I told you about my Sister Xiao Yue before." "You never told me her full name was Tang Yue," Jin Yu put away the documents into his briefcase. "You always referred to her as your Sister Xiao Yue without mentioning her last name, so I didn't know her name was Tang Yue."
