Chapter 393: Maid of honor to be
When they returned to the banquet hall, the party seemed to be winding up as some people were on the dance floor slowly moving along to another one of Moxi’s songs. Just as they planned they were back just in time to start bidding the guests farewell.
Chi Lian saw her friends waving at her from across the room.
’I think they want to know if we have successfully signed the papers."
"Go and give them our good news, I will go over to grandpa, he appears to be dozing off. We will tell them together at home." Muyang gave her half of a hug and he walked in a different direction from hers.
She walked calmly to her eager friends and the first thing Rize did was hand her Mei-Mei.
"I don’t know what you are feeding that child but my entire body is about to fall apart."
"She is not that heavy." Chi Lian answered.
To her Mei-Mei was as light as a feather. She could run an entire field twice while carrying Mei-Mei and she would not feel burdened at all.
"Forget Mei-Mei, tell us if you have successfully tied the knot or not." Lili said enthusiastically.
"Hmmm." Chi Lian answered.
"Oh come on friend, you know how much I hate suspense." Lili wailed.
"The peep star already gave us the answer." Yifei said. She put down the glass of champagne in her hands on a nearby table and brought out her phone. "Look at this, it says Mr. and Mrs. Jun. She can only be Mrs. Jun if she is his wife."
"That’s not evidence of a signed document, show us the certificates." Rize retorted.
To put her friends out of their misery she said, "You are now looking at the one and only legal wife of Jun Muyang."
"Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhh." the women squealed excitedly. For some reason, Yifei and Lili tapped their hands together as they jumped up and down.
"Shhh." Chi Lian told them. "You are making a scene."
A few eyes had turned their way after Yifei and Lili squealed. Some of them were from people that looked at them in disapproval. They probably found their behavior to be distasteful.
Indeed, she was right because a distance away, the two women who had been gossiping about Chi Lian in the bathroom had been joined by a third and these three women were looking at Chi Lian and her friends.
The bitterest of them all said to her friends, "See how they are behaving, I told you they don’t fit in with our class."
"They are friends with the princess." another said.
"Then the princess needs new friends. Friends of her class and not servants, I mean look at them. A masseuse, a cook an actress and an ordinary employee in a public relations department."
The other two women chuckled happily while their friend demeaned Chi Lian’s friends.
Qi Lele walked past them and said, "You sound bitter and jealous. Nobody is forcing you to be here, why don’t you leave."
The women looked embarrassed so they walked away and found another place to gather like demons colluding to do evil.
"Unbelievable." Qi Lele shook her head. She wondered what kind of person attended an engagement party for someone else just to gossip about them. What was so classy about their behavior?
Meanwhile Lili was explaining to Chi Lian why she and Yifei could not help but scream "We can’t help it, we are just happy for you."
"Thank you." Chi Lian replied with a big smile on her face. "And thank you all for coming for my special day."
"As if we would miss it." Lili replied. "I call shotgun on being your maid of honor when you eventually wed."
"You can’t do that, she has the right to choose whoever she wants." Rize spoke with sense and then she added, "Like the beautiful, tall princess who is dating her brother."
"Or a beautiful actress who is also dating her oldest brother." Jian Yu remembered to include herself.
Lili glared at Rize who in turn glared at Jian Yu.
Chi Lian knew that Xue Lili was about to sink into this argument like a pit bull. Usually once Lili had an idea in her mind, getting her to let go of it was like getting a dog to let go of a bone.
"Well there is talk of me having the traditional Chinese wedding and a white wedding so maybe you can all take turns being my bridesmaids. Heck maybe Muyang and I can be one of those couples that renews their vows every year so all of you get a turn." Chi Lian made a counter suggestion.
"Only the first one is special." Rize mumbled and the battle for maid of honor ensued.
Chi Lian decided to excuse herself and find her mother because her daughter was sleeping. It was two minutes past the scheduled time of seeing the guests off and yet everyone was still making merry.
Along the way, she stopped many times to say hello to people, smile at them and thank them for coming. When she eventually located her mother, it was to find her with Muyang’s mother holding court over the recent trends in modern weddings.
"Chi-Chi, come here and explain to them that wedding gowns with the sweetheart neckline are back in trend." Mama Chi jumped at the chance to drive her point home when she saw Chi Lian.
"I am not sure mother." Chi Lian replied.
"No, it’s the V line." He Weili countered. "I am a designer, I know these things."
The bickering between the two of them reminded her about another wedding related argument that she had escaped.
"Mother, Mei-Mei is tired. I want to take her home for a nap."
"Is that your granddaughter Weili, she is adorable." one of the women at the table said. "I love her the more I see her."
"Yes, my daughter-in-law is very beautiful and my granddaughter took after her."
"Your Muyang chose well." another woman said.
"To think that Muyang is the first among all of our brats to settle down and start a family. My heart aches when I think about my own sons who claim they are still in their youthful days. What thirty four year old man is youthful!!!!!"
"Girl Chi, do you have any good looking single friends?" one of the women asked.
"She owns that television, Phoenix. Some of their anchors are good looking well educated young girls. Maybe they will be willing to be set up on blind dates." another one suggested.
The next thing Chi Lian knew, her mother was taking down the contacts of all these women to form a matchmaking group for their sons.
She was forced to sit down and tell them about some of her qualified single employees. As she mentioned the ones who came across her mind, old master Jun thanked the guests for coming and bade them farewell.
At the entrance, all those who were leaving immediately were given a thank you gift. It was just some cakes and robot vacuum cleaners like the one she got after spinning the wheel. They were cheap to acquire, visually pleasant and efficient.
When it was over and the last guest left, Muyang asked her, "Can we go home now?"
