Chapter 1564 Planning the Engagement
At noon the next day, go home for dinner and discuss engagement matters.
...
The chefs have returned, a table of delicacies, a glass of red wine in front of each person, after eating a round of dishes, my sister spoke: "A week later will be a good day, my father and I think it is a good day, So I would like to ask you two opinions, A Li and Lin Xi, we will hold an engagement ceremony for you in a week, what is your opinion?"
I put down my chopsticks, shook Lin Xi's little hand, and said with a smile, "I'm fine."
Lin Xi's pretty face blushed slightly, and she nodded lightly: "Mmm~~~"
"That's fine."
The father picked up the red wine glass and said, "You two are engaged, and one of my worries is settled."
My sister toasted: "Come, come, everyone, let's celebrate in advance after drinking this glass of wine!"
"Uh-huh!"
Shen Mingxuan and Gu Ruyi raised their wine glasses together, while Ah Fei weighed the amount in his own wine glass. When it was too much, he poured it back into the wine dispenser before drinking in one gulp. After drinking, he wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "I'm really I didn't expect it... Ah Li found the Daoist partner one step ahead of me, tsk tsk, I thought his stupid brain would not be settled until you arranged a blind date for him~~~"
Father and sister chuckled.
Shen Mingxuan raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Now you say you are not angry, A Li is getting engaged immediately, and his fiancée is Lin Xi, although your A Fei has a lot of chicks, is there anyone prettier than Lin Xi? "
"No……"
A Fei shook his head again and again: "All the girls I've dated together are not worthy of lifting Lin Xi's shoes..."
Lin Xi coughed: "Be careful."
"Oh~~~"
A Fei nodded again and again, he has joined the Yilu Guild for a long time, Lin Xi, the beautiful leader, has long formed a fixed impression on his subordinates, so A Fei is actually quite afraid of Lin Xi, for fear that if she is unhappy, she will work hard to confuse him The position of the deputy head of the hand was lost, and it will be even more difficult to find girls in the guild later.
"And one more thing."
My sister pursed her red lips, looked at Lin Xi and me with her beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "I discussed with my father, we can't make your engagement with Lin Xi too vague, so...we plan to use the name of Tianming Group To host this engagement wedding, the company will bear all the expenses, and as a promotion for the game "Magic Moon", how can the engagement ceremony of the number one assassin in the national server, July Liuhuo, and the number one goddess in the national server, Lin Xi, be too shabby? Sometimes there will be a live broadcast of the whole process, and all the popular game anchors will be there, so... this is even more important to ask your opinions."
"ah?"
I was slightly taken aback: "Wouldn't it be a big deal in this way? Lin Xi and I are low-key people..."
"Mmmmmm, yes yes yes!"
Lin Xi also nodded with a smile.
"It's okay..."
The elder sister squinted her beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "My dad and I just set up 40-50 tables. After all, my dad and I have more friends and business contacts on the company side. There are at least 20 tables, maybe you can’t hold it anymore, and you, Lin Xi, your best friend group, Ah Li, your brother group, plus so many good friends in your guild, invite everyone who should be invited, 50 tables may not be able to hold, so our budget is 100 tables, and we will add more tables if more people come.”
"Do you want such a big scene?"
My scalp was a little numb: "It's just an engagement, a normal marriage isn't such a big scene, right?"
My father smiled and said: "Don't reject this kind of ostentation in your heart. After all, you will take over the company in the future. You will have to face more of this kind of scene in the future, so you should get used to it slowly. Lin Xi, you too, get used to it. In the future, I will manage the company with Lu Li, your sister has not been married for so many years because of the company, shouldn't you two relieve her stress?"
On the side, the elder sister had a black thread: "I don't... I don't have a man I like, Dad, you don't have to worry."
I glanced at Lin Xi: "What should I say, promise?"
Lin Xi felt a little guilty: "I don't agree...isn't it good?"
"Um."
I nodded and spoke on my behalf as the head of the family: "Okay, one hundred tables is one hundred tables, but since the company bears all expenses, it goes without saying that all travel expenses will be reimbursed, right?"
"Reimbursed."
The elder sister nodded and said with a smile: "We will send a dedicated financial team to be responsible for all capital operations."
"Okay, that's it."
So, the date was set to be seven days later, September 21, 2023, a day suitable for marriage, and after that it was time to contact relatives and friends. After dinner, I drank coffee in the corridor, while Lin Xi took her mobile phone to the balcony to greet her. Her aunt made a phone call and returned happily a few minutes later, smiling, "Auntie agreed!"
"Uh-huh!"
I also breathed a sigh of relief, now that Lin Xi has an elder here, she won't be too disappointed.
...
In the afternoon, return to the studio and go online. It's time to announce it in the game.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the big map had stabilized, and a Jingguan City was refreshed in the depths of the maple forest in the Northern Territory, with continuous walls on both sides of the city. Overlooking the entire Northern Territory, at this time, there is a prosperous and peaceful atmosphere in Fanshu City. Players come and go, some teleport to Longyu to go to the secret land of mountains and seas to continue exploring, and some go to the map of the Northern Territory to hunt treasures. There is an endless stream of players forming teams.
After I repaired the equipment, I turned around and entered the Great Cathedral. Soon after, Lin Xi also arrived, and the two of them sat side by side in the last row of benches in the Great Cathedral.
"Are you coming?" she asked with a smile.
"Well, I'll come."
I slapped my chest and said with a smile: "A man has to do his job!"
She chuckled: "Yeah!"
So, I directly posted an announcement in the group as the deputy leader: "Announcing good news, I will hold an engagement ceremony with Lin Xi in Suzhou on the 21st of this month, and I will invite some friends from the guild to attend Wedding engagement, but due to limited conditions and not too many table reservations, there must be many brothers and sisters who cannot be invited, but it doesn’t matter, there will be an online live broadcast that day, and everyone can also send you through online tipping Precious share money~~~”
In an instant, the guild exploded——
Qing Deng: "Damn, you two are really going to get engaged?"
October Nuanyang: "Congratulations, Brother Xiaoqi, congratulations, Master Lin Xi!"
Jiu Ge: "Congratulations, I want to go too, can you give me a spot, sir!"
Haotian: "I don't care, you have to give me this invitation letter, if you don't give it to me, just bring me a bowl of rice and go!"
Tianchai: "What about me...I want to go too!"
Calorie: "It's nothing to say, I have to go even if I skip work and school this day!"
...
The screen of the guild channel was swiping rapidly, and everyone I knew or didn’t know strongly demanded an invitation letter, but I was a little embarrassed because I had never seen such a big scene, so I said: "Ahem... because the number of places is limited, I and Lin Xi will pull in a small group of inviters, and slowly pull in those who have received invitations one by one, please wait a little while, and thank you for your blessings!"
Lin Xi also came forward: "Thank you everyone, Lu Li and I will start a group chat right away, please wait a moment~~~"
Not long after, Lin Xi personally created the group, and then only pulled me in. After that, I pulled Shen Mingxuan and Gu Ruyi in. We discussed the list together. My sister gave us a quota of 20 tables for gamers, 10 people per table, There are a total of 200 people, which is quite a lot, but compared to the friends we met in the game, it seems a little less.
Soon, private chats continued, and people like Killing Fanchen, Qingdeng, and July Flowing Water sent messages one after another, claiming that they would be very angry if I didn’t invite them, so they were pulled into the group one by one, and when Lin Xi and I put When all the familiar friends and some active members of the guild were pulled in, there were already 170+ people, which was almost full.
"drop!"
A piece of news came from Yanshi Bugong, an outsider: "Damn it, Lu Li, you and Lin Xi's engagement is such a big deal that you didn't even know about us? Did you look down on us, Wuji? I don't care, you give me 10 places, and I Wuji must A table full of people, Wu Xing, Wu Mou, and Xiao Han also want to go, you have to settle this matter for me!"
"..."
I hesitated for a moment. The Wuji Guild was our opponent before, but after that they started to join forces. They are definitely the most solid allies. It is really unreasonable not to ask, so I nodded: "Okay! Give Wuji a table, you put the list Give it to me, I'll pull them into the group!"
"okay!"
As a result, in less than a minute, Chaotic Feng first sent a message: "Lu Li, do you look down on our cavalry brothers from the Chaotic Alliance? I also have to have a table. We have shared so many troubles together, don't you ask us to justify it? "
I was speechless: "Okay, give me a table!"
"Okay bro, I'm waiting for your invitation letter!"
Less than two minutes later, a "beep" sound came, this time it was a message from Purgatory Shuguang, the deputy leader of the Mythology Guild: "Lu Li, this... Can we also have a table with Mythology? Me and Xue Jing, And the boss of Longevity Tale, they all want to go, after all, it is you and Lin Xi's engagement, which is the most sensational event in the game."
I thought for a while: "Well, fine, leave a table for Shinhwa!"
"Um!"
In the end, the number of people obviously exceeded the limit, so I had no choice but to call my sister and tell her that I must expand to 30 tables, otherwise I really can’t sit down, but my sister agreed with a smile.
...
The whole day, I didn't do anything in the game, I was busy counting the number of people, counting everyone's ID card information, etc., and thanks to the help of Shen Mingxuan and Gu Ruyi, otherwise Lin Xi and I would have been too busy , and in the game forum of "Magic Moon", the top news has already become the headline news of "July Liuhuo and Lin Xi are about to get engaged". up.
