Chapter 470: Jealous of brother-in-law?

The toasting ceremony was the pinnacle of the engagement banquet, a moment when joy and celebration reached their zenith. The villa, aglow with the soft light of lanterns and the delicate fragrance of white roses, had been transformed into a stage for heartfelt toasts and jubilation.

At the center of the hall, a long, elegant table had been set up, adorned with crimson silk and ornate porcelain dishes. The table sparkled with crystal wine glasses, each one waiting to be filled with fragrant jasmine tea, baijiu, and other celebratory drinks.

The guests, resplendent in their finest attire, were seated in a semi-circle around the table, their eyes focused on the couple of honor, Qin Yan and Xi Ting. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation, and a hushed reverence descended upon the gathering as they prepared for the toasting ceremony.

Qin Yan and Xi Ting, radiant in their engagement attire, stood side by side at the head of the table. They held in their hands two intricately designed goblets, each one adorned with symbols of love and unity. Their smiles were infectious, reflecting their excitement and happiness on this momentous occasion.

As the evening breeze gently rustled the leaves of the cherry blossom trees, the eldest member of the Xi family, Grandma Xi, rose to her feet. Her presence commanded respect and reverence, and her words held great significance in this traditional ceremony.

Grandma Xi raised her glass, "Ladies and gentlemen, family and friends, we gather here tonight to celebrate the union of two hearts, Qin Yan and Xi Ting. May their love be as enduring as the mountains and as deep as the ocean."

The guests, their faces beaming with smiles, raised their glasses in unison, their eyes locked onto Qin Yan and Xi Ting.

All the guests roared in unison, "To Qin Yan and Young Master Xi!"

The clinking of glasses and the harmonious cheers filled the air, a symphony of love and support for the couple. One by one, family members and close friends rose to offer their toasts, each speech filled with well-wishes, blessings, and anecdotes that celebrated the love story of the newly engaged couple.

Xi Jung couldn’t resist adding a touch of humor to his toast.

Xi Jung raised his glass with a grin, "To Big brother and sister-in-law, may your journey together be as smooth as baijiu and as sweet as honey!"

Laughter rippled through the guests as they clinked their glasses, appreciating the lighthearted sentiment.

The title of Xi family’ engagement banquet alone was intimidating. Even though they had only invited their close friends and relatives, the banquet was as lively as ever.

After toasting to each table of guests, Qin Yan and Xi Ting went to the seats reserved for them to rest, and the elders took care of the rest for them.

As soon as the couple sat down, they saw Qin Mufeng walking towards them. When she saw Qin Mufeng walking over, Qin Yan also rushed towards her brother. Xi Ting was mercilessly left behind. His gaze swept past the little lady who was rushing towards Qin Mufeng, and his eyes darkened slightly.

Qin Mufeng curled his lips and embraced Qin Yan, rubbing her head while he was at it, "Yan Yan, you are happy right?"

Qin Mufeng’s scrutinizing gaze moved from Qin Yan to Xi Ting. Even though he knew that he was not on par with the man in front of him, he didn’t mind going down with him if he dared to bother his sister.

Qin Yan gazed at Qin Mufeng and understood his concern. However, she also knew that there was no reason to worry. She replied, "Brother, don’t worry, I couldn’t be happier."

Hearing Qin Yan’s confident reply, Qin Mufeng’s frown eased. He knew that her life could not be any worse that what was in the Qin family, instead it would be better from now on. His sister would get the love and respect she deserved.

Still, he couldn’t stop himself from saying, "Yan Yan, no matter what, your brother will always be with you."

Qin Yan gazed at Qin Mufeng and nodded emotionally. It could be said that only Qin Mufeng was present from her side of the family. No matter what, the support of her maternal family was essential was a girl. Even though it was just Qin Mufeng, getting his support was also a big thing for Qin Yan. Her heart was filled with warmth.

At this time, Xi Ting chuckled and reached out his hand, "Mr. Qin, long time no see."

"Mm..."

Qin Mufeng gave a faint smile and nodded meaningfully, "It has been a while."

Qin Yan was very happy that Qin Mufeng could get along well with Xi Ting. Her voice was soft, and she said proudly to Qin Mufeng, "Ah Ting is a very good person, and he treats me very well. You will know in the future."

The smile on Qin Mufeng’s lips deepened, but it did not reach his eyes.

His phoenix-like eyes narrowed, "Oh?"

"Ahem..."

Grandfather Xi came to Qin Yan’s table. His coughs attracted everyone’s attention. With a warm smile on his face, he walked to Qin Mufeng’s side and patted him on the shoulder.

"Welcome, welcome. Yan Yan, why don’t you introduce us?"

Qin Mufeng reached out his hand, "Hello, Grandfather. I am Yan Yan’s older brother, Qin Mufeng. You can just call me by my name."

"Oh, yes, sure! You are indeed a handsome man!"

Grandfather Xi laughed so hard that his eyes disappeared. He held Qin Mufeng’s hand and said affectionately, "Since you are Yan Yan’s older brother, then we are family."

"Yes, Yan Yan is my beloved sister," Qin Mufeng tapped Qin Yan’s nose, his voice gentle and doting.

Grandfather Xi glanced at Xi Ting, who seemed to be at ease, and snorted lightly.

Punk, you’re even jealous of her brother?

Grandfather Xi ignored Xi Ting and asked Qin Mufeng, "Mufeng, what are you doing currently?"

Qin Mufeng had a great respect for Grandfather Xi. He knew that the person in front of his had single-handedly taken the Xi family in the top players of the food chain.

Thus, he replied politely, "Grandfather Xi, I am studying in my final year of business management in Beijing University. Also, I have started a small technology company with my roommates."

Qin Mufeng replied to Grandfather Xi’s questions honestly.

"Good, good, good," Grandfather Xi nodded in approval, "Mufeng, is your company developing smoothly?"

Qin Mufeng frowned at Grandfather Xi’s question, ’Why would he ask something like this? Is he doubting my capabilities?’ Numerous thoughts flooded in Qin Mufeng’s mind.

However, he did not show anything on his face. He smiled and said, "Yes, the company is running smoothly!"

Grandfather Xi nodded and said, "That’s good. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask Xi Ting. Also, if your company has any problems that you can’t solve, you can also look for your him. You are his elder brother-in-law and he is obligated to help you!"

Qin Mufeng could not help but laugh out loud. Now he understood why the old man had asked him such a question. He found the old man extremely cute. He nodded obediently and said, "Sure, sure. I have a brother-in-law who is an emperor of the business world. If I don’t learn from my brother-in-law, who should I learn from?"

In the past, Qin Mufeng only knew that the Xi family was very rich and that his brother-in-law was very rich. However, after entering the business world in the capital, he finally realized how powerful Xi Ting was. Although he did not really like Xi Ting for stealing his sister, there was no doubt that he secretly admired Xi Ting.

Xi Ting smiled and said, "Alright, brother-in-law, if you have anything to ask, feel free to look for me. If you want investment for your company, I can help too. I know the company will develop well in future, and I don’t mind making extra profits."

Xi Ting also recognized Qin Mufeng’s ability. Previously, with the help of Qin Mufeng, the Qin Corporation was growing well. However, at this moment, when Qin Mufeng had gone on backfoot with respect to his home company, Qin Corporation was going downhill. Moreover, Xi Ting also knew that in just a year, Qin Mufeng’s tech company had grown very well and he was sure that it would continue growing like this.

Xi Ting’s business foresight was impeccable and him saying that Qin Mufeng’s company would grow well was a great recognition to Qin Mufeng’s capabilities. Qin Mufeng himself understood this and his heart surged with confidence on hearing Xi Ting’s words.

Qin Mufeng immediately waved his hand and refused with a smile, "Thank you for your confidence in me, but I think it’s better for the company to develop slowly and accumulate experience."

Hearing Qin Mufeng’s reply, Grandfather Xi nodded with satisfaction. Qin Mufeng’s attitude towards business was very good and upright. It was really difficult for someone to refuse a short cut and plan to work hard. In this era, where everyone wished for quick success, Qin Mufeng’s patience was admirable.
