No one came to pick him up after he exited the high-speed rail station. Lou Cheng disguised himself and hailed a black cab. He negotiated the price from 30 to 15 with a disdainful attitude.
It had nothing to do with money. He just didn't want to be fooled by the driver. If he wasn't in a good mood, he would have crushed the road with his feet.
Lou Cheng arrived home without a word. He put down his backpack, hailed a cab, and went straight to Xiushan City Hotel.
Today was Lou Yuanwei's wedding day!
He had planned to come back early to observe the wedding preparations and gain some experience. However, he was delayed by a temporary task and could only attend the main event.
At the entrance of the luxurious City Hotel, there was a huge picture of Lou Yuanwei and his bride, Tang Ning. There were balloons, flowers, and other decorations. It was a joyous occasion.
"Her face is still so round …" Lou Cheng chuckled and took out the red envelope he had prepared in advance.
To the left of the entrance was the place to sign in and receive cash gifts. Lou Yuanwei and his wife stood there, welcoming guests with a smile.
"You, you're back …" As a relative, Lou Yuanwei recognized him immediately even though Lou Cheng was wearing black-rimmed glasses and a baseball cap that covered half of his face. He hesitated but didn't show it.
"Of course." Lou Cheng chuckled and handed the red envelope to his cousin. He looked around and said, "Let's talk about it later. There are quite a lot of guests."
He turned to look at Tangning and called out with a smile, "Hello, Tangning.
"Hello, Sister-in-law!"
Tang Ning was a pretty girl from a humble family. She looked a little strange with the heavy makeup on her wedding day. She and Lou Yuanwei were online dating. They dated for a long time and spent some time together in real life before they got married.
She responded to Lou Cheng's greeting with a smile. When he entered the banquet hall, she came back to her senses. She opened her eyes wide and approached Lou Yuanwei. She whispered in his ear, "Your younger brother?"
The famous younger brother?
"Yeah." Lou Yuanwei smiled and nodded proudly.
He squeezed the red envelope and found that it was so thin that he couldn't feel anything. He opened it curiously and saw only a piece of paper. He took it out and scanned it. It was a check!
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the joke that Lou Cheng had made in the family group chat.
"Then I'll close my eyes and press zero. It's fate to write more or less."
"It's true …" Lou Yuanwei was both amused and dumbfounded.
Stepping into the banquet hall, Lou Cheng looked around and sensed his surroundings. In an instant, he found his parents. They were helping to greet some familiar guests, such as his ex-ex-neighbor, Zhao Zijun, who was already a director.
"His daughter and my brother went on a blind date. Wouldn't it be awkward for her to come to his wedding?" Lou Cheng complained in his heart. He leaned over and said in a low voice, "Dad, Mom, Uncle Zhao, Auntie Huang."
Qi Fang glared at him. "Why didn't you come back last night? We have to hurry! "
"All kinds of things happen when you're out there." Zhao Zijun chimed in and responded to Lou Cheng's greeting in a slightly restrained manner.
When he first approached Lou Zhisheng and his wife, he thought that his son was acquainted with Director Xing and had a good relationship with him. Furthermore, his son had potential, background, and a bright future.
Who would have thought that in just a few short years, he would have a bright future, let alone a Xiushan prefecture-level city police chief!
His status and identity no longer needed others to set him off!
Thinking back, it was like a dream!
"Yeah, I haven't seen Fatty Jiang and Jiang Fei in a long time." Lou Cheng smiled.
After a few words of greeting, Zhao Zijun said goodbye and returned to his seat. After a few steps, he suddenly turned around and said with a smile,
"Director Xing is here too."
"Uncle Xing is here too? Where is he? "Lou Cheng was surprised.
He didn't know his cousin!
"In front." Zhao Zijun looked at Lou Cheng's disguise. "Do you want me to call him?"
"No need. I'll call him directly." Lou Cheng waved his phone.
"Okay, then we'll wait for the wedding to start." Zhao Zijun and Huang Qun returned to their seats reluctantly.
Lou Cheng dialed the number and walked out of the banquet hall to a secluded lounge.
After a few minutes, he heard Xing Chengwu's hearty laughter.
"You just came back?"
"Yeah, I just put my luggage down and came back. I didn't expect to see you here." Lou Cheng greeted him with a smile.
Xing Chengwu laughed and said,
"I'm familiar with your brother. He has been following Erzi for two years and is familiar with the land in Xiushan. Some of the higher-ups didn't come because of their status, but they all sent gifts."
Tsk, he had made a name for himself. Even if he didn't follow Erzi, with such connections, he could do anything in Xiushan as long as he didn't break the law. Lou Cheng was surprised and happy at the same time.
He joked, "Uncle Xing, as the police chief, it's enough!"
Xing Chengwu replaced the retired director a month ago and officially took charge of the Xiushan police system.
"Are you making fun of your Uncle Xing?" Xing Chengwu stared at him deliberately. "I'm the director and most of the people give you face."
"I didn't mention anything." Lou Cheng spread his hands and smiled. He asked, "I heard that Sister Jingjing took the initiative to practice and won't be back until Chinese New Year?"
As for where he heard it from, of course, it was his classmate Ke.
"She has the guidance of a Physical Invulnerability senior who specializes in illusion-type martial arts. She's making rapid progress. In one or two years, she might even reach the Inhuman level and surpass me, her father." Xing Chengwu's face glowed with pride when he talked about his daughter's growth.
"Like father, like daughter." Lou Cheng joked.
Xing Chengwu chatted happily for a while, then suddenly sighed and said,
"She's good at everything now, but she's still not willing to come into contact with men. Sigh, as parents, we don't ask for much. What we want is for our children to have a companion by their side when they grow up after we pass away. They can talk to each other, and they won't be alone in the house. That's what it means when young couples grow old."
"Actually, being a bachelor isn't bad. It's more comfortable and relaxing …" Lou Cheng's voice gradually became softer and less convincing. Xing Chengwu's eyes were clearly saying that a man with a girlfriend who was about to get married had no right to say such things.
Xing Chengwu wiped his hair with his hand that was as thick as a bear's paw and said,
"Sigh, you don't have to comfort me. Your aunt and I have thought about it. Jingjing hates men. We won't force her. Anyway, it's fine as long as she has a companion. We can also accept girls …"
Lou Cheng was speechless for a moment. After a long time, he gave a thumbs up and said,
"Uncle Xing, you guys are so fashionable!"
After chatting for a while, Lou Cheng and Xing Chengwu returned to the banquet hall and sat down.
Lou Cheng was worried that people would remember his disguise, so he decided to show his real face. After all, the people at the same table were his grandparents, aunts, and cousins.
But even so, as soon as he sat down, he felt many gazes on him. Some were excited, some were excited, some were curious, and some were pointing at him and discussing animatedly.
"Brother Lou Cheng, I finally understand what it means to be a public figure!" Qi Yunfei, who was studying in university, said with a smile.
Since leaving Xiushan and going to Gao Fen, she had been dressing fashionably. Coupled with her cute and pretty face, she had many suitors.
Just as Lou Cheng was about to answer, he suddenly saw a girl with big eyes, hunched over from the other side of the wedding platform. She took out her notebook and pen excitedly and nervously, saying, "Hello, Mr. Zhang.
"Lou Cheng, Lou Cheng, can I have your autograph?"
"Okay." Lou Cheng casually took the pen and paper and scribbled his name on the paper. He wrote his name in a flamboyant style.
At this time, he found that a few people were ready to move. He passed the pen and paper back and said to the girl with big eyes,
"You told them not to come together, one by one, and not to ruin the wedding, right?"
"Yes, yes!" The girl nodded vigorously and then turned back. She lowered her voice and said to her companions, "He talked to me! He talked to me! "
So, you've forgotten what I've told you? Lou Cheng had excellent hearing and almost covered his face.
After the commotion, it was finally quiet. Qi Yunfei looked at him with a smile and took out a thick notebook and pen from her bag.
"Brother Lou Cheng, I almost forgot if they didn't ask for your autograph! Come, sign it, every page! "
"Are you rebelling?" Lou Cheng said with a smile.
"Brother Lou Cheng, Sister Feifei wants to be a profiteer!" Chen Xiaoxiao, who was still in high school and still had baby fat, exposed her sister's purpose.
Feeling the gaze of her cousin, mother, grandfather, grandmother, and others, Qi Yunfei smiled embarrassedly.
"You don't know, Brother Lou Cheng's autograph is very valuable! It can be sold for so much! "
She stretched out five fingers and gestured.
Lou Cheng was dumbfounded. He took the pen and paper and began to sign.
"I was thinking that since I'm officially working, I should give some New Year's money to my sisters and brothers who are still in school. Since you can earn it yourself, I'll give you a share."
Qi Yunfei's smile froze and she asked blankly,
"Brother Lou Cheng, how much are you going to give?"
"I'm not stingy, am I right, Xiaoxiao?" Lou Cheng casually gave a number.
After his grandfather Qi Jiayu and grandmother Kong Meizhen heard this, they said at the same time,
"How can you give so much?"
"You have to spend your money wisely! It's a waste for them to give so much money! "
"It's not much." Lou Cheng evaded the question.
Qi Yunfei's lips moved a few times and she said with a sad face,
"Brother Lou Cheng, I don't want your autograph, I'm wrong!"
"It's already been signed." Lou Cheng replied with a smile.
"Is this still my brother?" She was sad and indignant.
Lou Cheng laughed and said,
"Only real brothers are like this."
"I hate you!" Qi Yunfei pretended to be teary.
While they were fooling around, the wedding officially began. Lou Cheng took out his phone and took pictures and recorded videos to send to his wife.
When the bride's father sent her off, the host began to reminisce about the past. The bride couldn't help but cry.
Lou Cheng's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but complain to his little fairy on QQ,
"Weddings nowadays really have to be forcefully moved. It's a joyous occasion, but it always makes people sad."
"That's right, that's right. It's so awkward! We don't need a host in the future! [Nodding like a chick pecking at rice].
"Then how do we proceed? [Stunned expression]" Lou Cheng asked back.
"You can partner with Talker ~ You can also do a crosstalk ~ [Covering mouth and laughing expression]" The girl said.
"Where's the dignity of a physical invulnerability expert? [Covering face and sighing expression]" Lou Cheng said.
The rest of the wedding process went smoothly. For the next half a month, Lou Cheng stayed at home with his parents except for a few days in Ningshui. Of course, there were also some social activities. It was good to maintain a good relationship with his parents in his hometown.
