Chapter 1100: Chapter 1143: Eve of the Celebration

In the evening, everyone made a special trip to visit Su Yiyi’s father, and they were highly respectful towards him. Despite his past as a gambling addict and his poverty, he was still Su Yiyi’s father, and they had to show him sufficient respect.

This left Su Yiyi’s father pleasantly surprised and overwhelmed. However, seeing the beautiful women around, he was also worried. He always thought his daughter was very beautiful and hence would be highly favored here, but now he realized that the girls here were each more beautiful than the next, and Su Yiyi’s appearance did not stand out.

However, Li Yifei did not come over, as he had a dinner to attend this evening, which spared Su Yiyi’s father some awkwardness.

Tonight, Su Yiyi’s father enjoyed delicacies he usually didn’t have the chance to eat. After dinner, he walked around the garden-like courtyard before returning late to sleep in a room that was like those in a star-rated hotel, feeling as if he were dreaming.

Today, Su Yiyi did not arrange for her father to meet Xu Yingying and Lin Qiong’s parents. It was fine for her father, but there would definitely be issues with Xu Yingying and Lin Qiong’s fathers, so they decided to wait and meet together on Saturday.

On Friday, the Li family’s house was even busier. The first to arrive were He Fangqing’s parents, specially picked up by her. Her parents were ordinary people working in a government agency without significant authority, especially her father, who was very stubborn and principled. He had never been corrupt or taken advantage of his position, which was exactly why He Fangqing found him challenging.

Li Yifei and He Fangqing went to the airport to pick them up together. Upon seeing Li Yifei, He Fangqing’s mother scrutinized him and smiled, clearly satisfied with him, while her father remained stern and silent.

Once in the car, He Fangqing sat in the front while her parents sat in the back. Finally, her father spoke.

"Do you know Fangqing has been divorced before?"

Li Yifei immediately responded, "Yes, uncle, I am aware."

"Then, with your conditions, what kind of girl could you not find? Why choose our Fangqing?" He Fangqing’s father did not like these wealthy individuals. He preferred his daughter to marry a sincere, ordinary man. His previous son-in-law appeared too slick, which made him uneasy.

Li Yifei replied with a smile, "It’s all about fate. Fangqing and I get along well, and we have a great relationship. I don’t care if Fangqing has been married before. I only know that she likes me now and wants to be with me, and that’s enough."

"Do you intend to marry Fangqing?"

"Yes."

"Would you be willing to joint own the family assets as shared property with your spouse?"

He Fangqing’s mother immediately said, "You old man, why bring this up?" But she was eyeing Li Yifei, indicating that this matter was very important to her. Whether a man is willing to spend money on a woman signifies his affection, and in the case of a wealthy person, his willingness to share his assets even more so illustrates the sincerity of his intentions to marry.

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Everything I own will be shared with Fangqing. When we marry, I will certainly follow what uncle and aunt suggest."

"Are you just saying this?" He Fangqing’s father followed up.

Li Yifei earnestly responded, "Uncle and aunt, without a stable family, no matter how great the achievements, it’s not a success. I will never part from Fangqing in this lifetime, so what’s mine is Fangqing’s."

He Fangqing’s parents were finally satisfied with Li Yifei’s answer.

Most importantly, Li Yifei gave a very reliable impression, absolutely not like the previous one, making He Fangqing’s father feel uneasy.

Upon reaching Li Yifei’s mansion, He Fangqing’s parents were astounded. Although they knew Li Yifei was wealthy, they had never imagined to what extent; it was beyond their imagination.

After settling He Fangqing’s parents, Li Yifei went to pick up Song Lianyao’s parents, who were businesspeople owning a small factory with assets worth a few million. Businesspeople tend to be more tactful, and given Li Yifei’s wealth, they showed a flattering attitude, making them much easier to deal with. After seeing the Li family’s mansion, both were eager for Song Lianyao to marry Li Yifei immediately, and after settling them, Song Lianyao told her parents that her close friend, Li Xinyue, was also following Li Yifei.

This left Song Lianyao’s parents somewhat disappointed, yes, just disappointed, not angry. If they only had a daughter and Li Yifei was an orphan, they could have considered this place half their home in the future. Now with others involved, they couldn’t do so.

Song Lianyao mentioned Li Xinyue precisely because she knew her parents were quite snobbish. If she didn’t let them know early, they would easily get suspicious, and since Li Xinyue was her close friend, her parents would more readily accept her.

These people had arrived early, and Li Yifei did not accompany them that evening. Although he really had no engagements tonight, dining with anyone would still be problematic, so he simply hid away, deciding to deal with everything tomorrow.

Saturday, the day before Li Yifei’s grand housewarming celebration, all the family relatives were due to arrive today, otherwise, someone would miss the ceremony scheduled for eight o’clock tomorrow morning.

In the afternoon, several key figures finally arrived. First were the Ye family members with the Old Master of the Ye Family personally attending, besides Ye Yunzhu’s parents and the young girl, Zhou Xiaoyue.

Li Yifei had just welcomed them when Su’s Third Eldest, the old men from Xiao and Zheng Families also arrived, bringing along several other important members of their families.

The Old Master of the Ye Family was already a notable figure, but compared to these three families, he was somewhat less significant.

What made Li Yifei somewhat uneasy was that in addition to these three families, a significant family from the Capital City had also arrived, comprising Ning Xin’er’s family, with the Ning Family’s Old Master, her parents, and several other key Ning family members attending.

Su’s Third Eldest clapped Li Yifei’s shoulder and chuckled, "I say, kid, you stood me up last time, so this time I brought the Ning family too. You eloped with their daughter, let’s see how they settle this with you."

Li Yifei knew Grandpa Ning and approached him with an awkward greeting, "Hello, Grandpa Ning."

Grandpa Ning glared and snapped, "Humph! You scoundrel, eloping with my granddaughter, and you still dare to address me like that? Believe it or not, I could smack your ear!"

Li Yifei hurriedly replied with a smile, "Yes, yes, Grandpa, if hitting me eases your anger, go ahead."

"Humph, you think I wouldn’t hit you?" Grandpa Ning, a former high-ranking military officer, still carried an imposing aura, and raised his hand menacingly but eventually patted Li Yifei on the shoulder.

"Grandpa!" Ning Xin’er approached at that moment.

"You little rascal, that’s really inappropriate," Grandpa Ning scolded Ning Xin’er, but his eyes softened with affection. Ning Xin’er had always been his most beloved granddaughter, and he had missed her greatly during the years they saw little of each other.

"Grandpa, I’m wrong, please don’t be mad," she pleaded.

"If I were truly mad at you, you’d be long gone by now. Where’s my great-granddaughter? Bring her here for me to see."

Ning Xin’er quickly brought over Little Yifei. The Ning family members crowded around, confusing the little girl slightly, but fortunately, she was now used to having many grandparents around, and she wasn’t shy.

Su’s Third Eldest patted Li Yifei’s shoulder again and winked, "Kid, you’re really something now. You eloped with their daughter, and they don’t even make a fuss about it. If it were someone else, the Ning family would’ve chopped him up and fed him to the turtles by now."

Li Yifei understood that the Ning family’s current amiable attitude likely resulted from his recent interactions with several senior officials. Now a highly sought-after figure, these prominent families wouldn’t want to miss such an opportunity.

Watching the camaraderie between Li Yifei and Su’s Third Eldest made members of the Xiao and Zheng Families envious. If only they hadn’t made poor decisions before, their relationships might not have been as close as Su’s Third Eldest’s, but it would have been much closer than others’. Now, because Ning Xin’er had given birth to Li Yifei’s first child, the Ning family had become closer to Li Yifei than they were.

Li Yifei led the guests around his estate, and even these prominent families couldn’t help but admire Li Yifei’s home. These influential families could easily establish such a home without much effort, but doing so could attract a lot of criticism, unlike Li Yifei who did it with ease and grace.

The only families now missing were Li Xinyue’s and Michelle’s. Li Xinyue originally didn’t want her family to come, as she felt strong aversion towards them. But for such a grand event, it would be inappropriate if her family didn’t attend. After some discussion, Li Yifei decided to invite Li Xinyue’s family. Even if her stepmother was not very nice and her brother was somewhat scoundrelly, Li Yifei had many ways to deal with them if they crossed the line.

As for Michelle’s parents, Li Yifei had not had much contact with them, meeting them only twice before. He planned to personally pick them up later. As the only woman close to Li Yifei besides his wife, he was determined to ensure that Michelle would enter the Li family in full glory.
