Chapter 836 A Grand Occasion
Meanwhile, Xue Lang's parents, Xue Changfeng, the head of the Xue family, and his wife arrived in a high-profile manner, riding in a luxurious Rolls-Royce.
Led by Ye Rongcheng, the members of the Ye family personally went to greet them, doing their best to please and flatter.
As soon as Mrs. Xue stepped out of the car, she looked around with a somewhat disdainful expression. She took off her sunglasses and said, "Old Master Ye, are these the 'heavyweight guests' you invited? All of them are from second-tier wealthy families, with a market value of over ten billion. Only the few deputy provincial-level leaders here are barely acceptable.
"Our son Xue Lang is the sole heir of our family. His marriage is a significant event for our family. At the very least, it should be done decently. Look at this. Is this the grandeur you've prepared?"
With his hands behind his back, Xue Changfeng snorted, "Old Master Ye, I entrusted the wedding organization to your family because I trusted you. Is this the response you give me?"
"I, um… Master Xue, we've done our best." Ye Rongcheng felt extremely embarrassed, and the members of the Ye family all wished they could bury their heads in the ground.
For this wedding, the Ye family spared no effort, and Ye Rongcheng, too, threw his dignity out the window to beg guests to attend. However, the Ye family's resources were inherently limited, and although they had managed to invite guests of this caliber, it still fell short in the eyes of the Xue family.
"Whatever, I can't be bothered to argue with you. This will do. What can we do when our son is infatuated with Ye Mei'er," Mrs. Xue scoffed.
The Ye family members breathed a sigh of relief. Still, they felt extremely aggrieved.
Ye Rongcheng pulled Ye Wenhui aside and asked, "Wenhui, I asked you to invite Mr. Shen Wanqian to attend our Ye family's wedding a week ago. How did it go? Have you got any news?"
"Yeah, Wenhui, you are good friends with Mr. Shen, a young man he values. Given your friendship, it should be a piece of cake, right?"
"Hurry up and ask Mr. Shen to come so we don't have to endure this frustration."
The Ye family members urged Ye Wenhui one after another, putting all their hopes on him. They still believed that the 'intimate friend' mentioned by Shen Wanqian was Ye Wenhui, and they thought Ye Wenhui had a significant connection with Shen Wanqian.
"But I…" Ye Wenhui broke into a cold sweat, feeling helpless. For the sake of his pride, he had been keeping quiet about this, making sure no one knew the truth. However, it seemed that he couldn't keep it hidden anymore.
Unable to bear the hopeful eyes of the Ye family members, Ye Wenhui gritted his teeth and decided to tell the truth, "Grandfather, Mom, Dad, actually, Mr. Shen and I… We—"
"Mr. Shen Wanqian of the Xi Bei Shen family is here!"
Someone suddenly shouted, and instantly, the whole scene erupted with excitement.
Even the high-profile Xue Changfeng and his wife willingly stood up and ran over with smiles to personally welcome the multi-billionaire.
Shen Wanqian was the richest man in Xi Bei, worth hundreds of billions. He was also the mastermind behind the charity banquet that received the protection of the Dragon Soul Warlord and the recognition of the military. Now, he was a celebrity in Xi Ye. There wasn't a person in Xie Bei who wouldn't give Shen Wanqian due respect.
Soon, Shen Wanqian, accompanied by Shen Jing and their entourage, arrived. Following them were more than a dozen patriarchs from top-tier families, each with strength comparable to the Xue family! This was truly a grand occasion.
"Oh, Wenhui, you've really outdone yourself." Ye Rongcheng was beyond excited, pride written across his face. "Not only did you convince Mr. Shen to come, but you also managed to invite so many patriarchs from renowned families."
"How generous of Mr. Shen. This is all thanks to Wenhui." NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
"Wenhui, you truly live up to the reputation of being the future of our family!"
The Ye family members were ecstatic, showering Ye Wenhui with praises.
Ye Wenhui was utterly dumbfounded, standing there in shock, feeling overwhelmed…
His family members might be oblivious, but he knew full well that he had no power to get all these big shots to come on this day.
So, who exactly invited them?
