Chapter 411: 264 Gathering in Pingjiang City, the most bizarre engagement ceremony (3 updates)

The engagement was held in Pingjiang, and the entire Jiang Family arrived a day early, traveling together with

Shen Zhixian, Taotao, and Xie Duo.

Although Xie's senior had no ties with the Tang Family, he was an old acquaintance of Grandma Jiang. It was only

right for the Xie Family to send someone for Jiang Jinsang’s engagement. Plus, since Shen Zhixian was invited,

and he was getting on in years, he had Xie Duo run the errand.

Tang Wan and Tang Yunxian personally went to the airport to pick up the guests.

The grandmother wasn’t sure if it was due to excitement or if it was just too hot in Pingjiang City—once she got

off the plane, she broke into a sweat.

She held onto Tang Wan's hand, remarking on how much Pingjiang had changed.

Since it was still early, everyone was arranged to check into the hotel directly. The rooms had been booked days

before, so Tang Wan took care of the check-in with everyone's identity cards and then distributed the room

cards.

Grandma and the couple Jiang Zhenhuan, Jiang Chengsi, and Jiang Jinsang were settled in a four-person

apartment suite.

"Big Brother, these are for you and Teacher Shen," said Tang Wan as she handed the room card to Jiang Yanting

before giving a single room card to Xie Duo, "Master Xie, this is yours."

Shen Zhixian arched an eyebrow subtly. She and Jiang Yanting...

Sharing a room?

But before she could say anything, someone else beat her to it.

"Miss Tang, about this arrangement... isn’t it somewhat inappropriate?" Xie Duo frowned.

Although he knew about the situation between Jiang Yanting and his aunt, it just seemed wrong for a bachelor

and a single woman to share accommodations.

"I've booked them a suite; they aren’t in the sroom. Plus, they both have children. It's bound to be noisy,

and it wouldn't be suitable to place them with grandma and my fifth brother—one is elderly and can’t take the

noise, the other is sick and needs rest. When the two children are together, they're easier to manage and will

have each other for company."

Tang Wan explained to Xie Duo with reasonable and well-thought-out points.

She was indeed trying to play matchmaker for Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian, even rationalizing with a bunch of

sound arguments.

"Xie Duo, why don’t you stay with my brother? You can take care of the children?" Jiang Chengsi said with a

laugh.

Xie Duo and Jiang Yanting exchanged glances. They had been rivals since childhood, and now there was a

chance that one could becthe other’s uncle. If looks could kill with sharpness, Jiang Yanting would have

been sliced to ribbons by Xie Duo’s gaze by now.

If the two of them stayed in the sroom, it was likely they might cto blows.

Gritting his teeth, Xie Duo relented, "Let it be so, then."

Once that was decided, he helped Shen Zhixian carry her luggage upstairs. They were only here for an

engagement party, and the stay wasn’t long, but Shen Zhixian didn’t travel light, especially with a child in tow.

"Dad, why aren't you helping?" Jiangjiang tugged at his deadbeat dad’s clothes. "You need to be proactive."

Not only was this father a slacker, but he was also obtuse. At this rate, when would he ever get together with his

mother?

"Be proactive with what?" Jiang Yanting raised an eyebrow.

"Be proactive and help out. You need to make a good impression."

"Huh?"

"It's like this on TV: to woo a girl, a guy has to be extra nice to her, to get her to notice him. You need to take the

initiative."

"Later on, we'll be under the sroof. There will be plenty of chances to impress. Right now, we have free

labor for moving the luggage. Why reject it?"

Jiangjiang’s little face scrunched up; his father’s words seemed... somewhat reasonable.

Once Tang Wan and Tang Yunxian had the Jiang Family settled, they hurried off to take care of other matters, with

Tang Yunxian heading to the hotel to finalize details for the engagement party.

The marriage wedding would definitely be managed by the Jiang Family, so for the engagement party, Tang

Yunxian nearly did everything himself, taking it very seriously. Meanwhile, Tang Wan drove to the train station to

pick up more guests.

On the way, she received a call from Ruan Mengxi.

"Hello, Xixi—"

"My plane lands tonight around six, and I should arrive in Pingjiang by around nine."

"Should | cpick you up?"

"No need. You've been tired lately. My dad will cto get me."

"Then just be safe."

"It’s not just me; I'll be with him..." Ruan Mengxi was, of course, talking about Qi Zeyan. Whenever she

mentioned him, her voice seemed to carry a sweet breeze.

"Would you rather not?" Qi Zeyan already intended to bring an assistant on the trip, and since she was Tang

Wan'’s close friend, he thought it convenient to include her.

"Not at all, | want to."

Publicly-funded travel, plus she could see Qi Zeyan all the time—what’s there not to like?
