Chapter 805: Ruining the Event (4)
Traditionally, as an etiquette, the pair of newly-weds would be at the wedding venue entrance together welcoming their guests.
However, Mu Donglin was now inside the venue, socializing with a group of people who were obviously trying to curry favor with him.
He was not the warm and friendly type to begin with. He had a poker face and was an aloof man. In the white suit, he looked even more indifferent and distant.
Initially, all the guests put on their best smiles. After all, it was a joyous occasion for the Mu Family.
Alas, the groom’s sullen expression caused the guests to wonder.
Mu Donglin didn’t seem to care, and would rather hang around inside the venue to talk about work than to welcome arriving guests.
Except that, at some point during his conversation, he became distracted.
Holding his glass of wine, he could hear the commotion around him. He couldn’t help but look up.
Then he saw a couple approaching.
That this was a good-looking couple was secondary. The main thing was that they were stunningly dressed.
In particular, Li Beinian’s dress attracted a lot of attention.
Mu Donglin had no doubt that next to the bride Lin Kerou, Li Beinian was by far more outstanding.
The man was stunned watching Li Beinian smiling sweetly as she walked in holding Mu Xichen’s arm. His grip on the wine glass tightened, draining the color out of his knuckle.
Those who were standing around and discussing business with Mu Donglin were naturally astute people.
When they noticed Mu Donglin staring, they followed his gaze.
“Isn’t that Miss Li?” A CEO said aloud. “It’s been such a long time!”
Li Beinian turned around and the coquettish expression on her face faded a little. With a pleasant smile and her arm still around Mu Xichen’s, she walked up and greeted the man. “Hello, it’s really been a long time.”
The CEO smiled happily even though he could tell that Li Beinian did not recognize him at all.
It did not affect his good mood.
He glanced at Li Beinian and immediately praised her. “How beautiful, Miss Li and Second Young Master Mu are such a perfect match. I wonder when we’ll get to attend your wedding banquet? I can hardly wait.”
“Soon, on the eighth day of February. The wedding will be held a month after the New Year.” Li Beinian replied casually without so much as a glance at Mu Donglin. “I hope to see you all during the event.”
“That’s wonderful. I hope you won’t kick me out when I turn up.”
“How could that possibly happen? It’s a wedding. Of course, the more people there are, the merrier. Don’t you agree, Hubby?” Li Beinian’s smile lit up her face, making her look all the more beautiful and compelling.
Particularly so when she addressed her husband. Her tone and expression was exactly the way Mu Donglin had imagined her to be, if she had fallen in love with him.
HIs grip on the wine glass tightened further when he saw how the normally stoic Mu Xichen lowered his head with his eyes full of gentle affection saying, “You’re right.”
The man was completely agreeable and compliant.
This was extreme indulgence!
The overly-friendly CEO immediately smiled and said, “Isn’t it fantastic to be young… doting on your wife with such passion.”
“Hey, Leader Mu, be careful not to spoil your woman or there’ll be difficult days ahead,” someone teased.
Mu Xichen smiled and said helplessly, “What can I do? I have only one wife.”
