Chapter 419 - How Can He Be Worthy of My Cousin
Chapter 419: How Can He Be Worthy of My Cousin
Qi Hao was the protagonist today, but most of the people at the wedding were here for Qi Yihan.
Looking at Qi Yihan, who was surrounded in the middle, Tang Zitong, who was sitting at the other table, said with a smitten expression, “Fourth Brother-in-law is so capable. Look, everyone is toasting him.”
Su Ziqing glanced over and said calmly, “If he’s not capable, how can he be worthy of my cousin?”
Tang Zitong was stunned when she heard this. She felt that something was wrong, but she couldn’t tell exactly what. She thought for a moment and said, “I think Fourth Sister and Fourth Brother-in-law are equally good. There’s no such thing as one being worthy of another.”
Su Ziqing pursed her lips and did not reply.
Tang Zitong was a little bored and wanted to discuss with Xiang Wanwan, but when she turned around, she realized that Wanwan was not at her seat.
She was surprised and asked Su Ziqing, “Ziqing, where did Wanwan go?”
“Her brother is here.”
“Oh.” Tang Zitong was relieved and started to eat. At that moment, someone called her. She quickly looked up and saw someone she knew. The person waved at her. “Tang Zitong, come and drink.”
When Tang Zitong heard this, she quickly ate some food and picked up the wine glass. She asked Su Ziqing, “Ziqing, do you want to go over and drink with us? I know all those people. They’re easy to get along with.”
“No, I don’t like drinking with strangers.”
Tang Zitong knew her personality and did not force her. “Alright, take your time. I’m going to drink.”
“Eat some more. Otherwise, you won’t have time to eat later.”
......Tang Zitong felt that it made sense, so she picked up her chopsticks and ate a few more mouthfuls. Feeling full, she walked to the group of women who called her.
After Tang Zitong left, Su Ziqing looked around. Seeing that many madams and ladies were surrounding Tang Li and were respectful to her, she was relieved.
She then looked around and suddenly realized that Xiang Wanwan’s brother had also gone to greet Qi Yihan, but Xiang Wanwan didn’t follow.
She looked around again but still didn’t see anyone. Her gaze turned cold and she took out her phone to call Xiang Wanwan. At the same time, she stood up and walked out.
She had to stop Xiang Wanwan from being with Qi Lingxuan. In her previous life, it was because of them that her cousin ended up miserably. In this life, she had to stop them.
…
On Tang Li’s side.
As soon as she picked up her chopsticks, a madam brought her daughter over to toast her.
“Fourth Madam, congratulations. I’m the wife of the CEO of XX Group. This is my daughter, Lu Ting. Lu Ting, greet Fourth Madam.”
“Fourth Madam, hello.”
Tang Li nodded.
Mrs. Lu added, “Come, let’s toast to Fourth Madam. I hope Fourth Madam…” Mrs. Lu wanted to say that she wished Tang Li would become more and more beautiful, but Tang Li was really too beautiful, so she took back her words and changed them. “I wish you two an ever-lasting love between Fourth Madam and Fourth Master.”
The corners of Tang Li’s lips curled up into a faint smile. “Today is not my wedding day. Mrs. Lu, aren’t you toasting the wrong person?”
“No, no. Fourth Master and Fourth Madam are about the same age as your nephew. While congratulating the newly-wed couple, I also sincerely wish Fourth Master and Fourth Madam the best.”
Tang Li nodded and clinked glasses with her before taking a sip.
Seeing that Tang Li had drunk, Mrs. Lu quickly took a sip as well and asked in a casual tone, “As the madam of the Qi family, Fourth Madam should be able to manage the marriage of your nephew and niece, right?”
Not only did these words make Tang Li look at the mother and daughter, but the others also looked at them.
Mrs. Lu did not seem to feel everyone’s gaze and started to promote her daughter.
“My daughter graduated from M Nation’s M school and majored in international finance. A big family like the Qi family will definitely need such a talent to manage their finances. Money is something that can’t be managed by just anyone…”
After saying that, Mrs. Lu looked at Tang Li nervously, thinking to herself, “Fourth Madam, you should understand what I’m trying to say, right?”
Tang Li sat there with her beautiful fingers casually placed on the dining table. The corners of her lips were still curled up into a faint smile as she said, “It does sound good, but after all, my nephews and nieces have their own parents. It’s not my place to interfere. If Miss Lu likes someone, why don’t you tell his mother?”
Mrs. Lu quickly nodded. “Of course, of course. We’re just here to greet Fourth Madam. We’ll definitely go and greet the other two madams later.”
Tang Li gestured for them to leave and the mother and daughter walked towards Third Madam.
Then, many madams brought their daughters or nieces to greet Tang Li. These people were all hoping to marry the girls into the Qi family. Tang Li asked them to look for Second Madam and Third Madam.
Only when a girl mentioned Qi Lingxuan did Tang Li become interested and looked up.
The woman standing in front of her looked to be in her twenties. She was pretty and had a dimple when she smiled. When Tang Li looked at her, she lowered her head in embarrassment and said, “I’ve been attracted to Young Master Lingxuan since the first time I saw him. I hope Fourth Madam can help me.”
Tang Li said, “I can’t make the decision. Instead of talking to me, why don’t you talk to First Master?”
The woman quickly said, “You’re the Madam of the Qi family. Don’t you have the right to decide his marriage?”
A faint smile appeared on Tang Li’s lips again. “I’m the Madam of the Qi family, but we are not living in the last century. In this century, people have the right to choose their loved ones.”
The woman was a little disappointed. She wanted to say something but was stopped by her mother.
The middle-aged woman said something nice to Tang Li and left with her daughter.
After the two of them left, Tang Li looked around and realized that Qi Lingxuan was not here at all.
Not only was Qi Lingxuan not around, but Xiang Wanwan was also not around.
She took out her phone and called Butler Zhang.
Butler Zhang quickly walked over. “Madam.”
Tang Li asked, “Where is Lingxuan?”
“I saw Young Master Lingxuan walking in the direction of the bathroom just now.”
“Who else is with him?”
“Miss Xiang and Miss Su, Miss Xiang went out first. Miss Su went out after Young Master Lingxuan went out.”
When Tang Li heard this, she narrowed her eyes. At that moment, she saw Xiang Wanwan walking towards her anxiously.
After Xiang Wanwan walked over, she leaned forward and whispered into Tang Li’s ear, “Miss Tang, Ziqing suddenly fainted just now. Hurry up and go see her.”
Tang Li stood up and told Butler Zhang to help her deal with the people who came to toast her before walking out with Xiang Wanwan.
