Chapter 299 The Best Man and the Bridesmaid
In the next following days, Ling Tianyi was still very busy. He had to comfort Xia Xiaoluo’s mood and explain it to his own parents. He also helped Li Fei and Qiao Anna to be together and paid back to the Shen’s Group and other groups for their supports…
Of course, Ling Tianyi spent most of the time and energy in repairing the relationship between him and Xia Xiaoluo. Although Xia Xiaoluo chose to forgive him, he knew that there was a big rift between them due to the recent matters. If he couldn’t make up for it, the rift would become bigger and bigger and it would be more troublesome.
Li Fei and his parents also went to the Qiao family to propose marriage in person and basically decided the plans for the wedding, so Li Fei was busy every day. He even put his business in A City aside temporarily, just focusing on giving Qiao Anna a decent wedding.
The Qiao family approved Li Fei finally. Although Li Fei’s family background and appearance were not as good as Ling Tianyi, Li Fei seemed to care about Qiao Anna very much. And he took the initiative to make a premarital property notarize and prenuptial agreements. He was not greedy for the property of the Qiao family, which satisfied Sir Qiao temporally.
Ling Tianyi arranged his secretary Luna to help Li Fei, he wanted to help Li Fei as much as possible. Although Li Fei was rich, after all, he was a lawyer, not a businessman. His parents were not businessmen either. Moreover, Li Fei had just come back, so he didn’t have many friends. Ling Tianyi couldn’t interfere with this matter too much, but he wouldn’t let Li Fei arrange all the things by himself.
Qiao Anna was thinking at home every day, and she was planning something secretly. She would like to arrange a meeting that everyone was present. She would like to confront Xia Xiaoluo face to face and Xia Xiaoluo into the abyss thoroughly.
After Qiao Anna thought about it, she found Li Fei.
“Li Fei, we are going to get married next month. Have you decided who will be the best man and bridesmaid now?” Qiao Anna sat in the cafe, but she dared not to order the coffee, so she could only drink the milk.
“I have just come back, and I don’t have many friends here. As for my old friends, I’m either not so familiar with them or some of them have already got married. So, only Ling Tianyi and Yao Sheng are available now, but I don’t want to invite Ling Tianyi. As for Yao Sheng, he’s not reliable. As a result, I’m going to ask the wedding company to arrange the best man for me. As for the bridesmaid, you can choose your best friend, or you can also ask the wedding company to help you to arrange one.” Li Fei said. When he looked at Qiao Anna’s beautiful face, he was attracted deeply and he vowed in his heart that he would give Qiao Anna the best wedding.
“In fact, I just came back from abroad. I don’t have many friends in A City, which is similar to your situation. Originally, I had an old classmate, Tianxue, but recently she went abroad to pursue her love. She didn’t plan to come back in a short time. Alas! It is a nuisance!” Qiao Anna said, pretending to be in a dilemma.
“It doesn’t matter! I can ask the wedding company to arrange for us. They have such services, and their best man and bridesmaid are very professional so they can guide us not to make mistakes at the wedding.” Li Fei said.
“But I don’t think so! I don’t like the best man and bridesmaid from the wedding company. They are just strangers to us.” Qiao Anna said and she looked embarrassed.
“Oh? What’s your suggestion? Tell me about it. I’ll listen to you. And I will follow your orders, I will do the specific things if you have the arrangements.” Li Fei followed Qiao Anna’s words. If Qiao Anna didn’t like the best man and the bridesmaid arranged by the wedding company, he would never arrange the people from the wedding company to be their best man and bridesmaid.
“I think we can invite Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo to be our best man and bridesmaid.” When Qiao Anna finished, she looked at Li Fei, waiting for his reply.
“Anna, are you sure that you want to invite them? I am even wondering whether I should invite them to our wedding!” Li Fei said. He was still very angry when he mentioned Ling Tianyi. He couldn’t stand anyone to hurt the woman he liked. So, when Ling Tianyi’s secretary Luna wanted to help him these days, Li Fei refused.
“I do!” Qiao Anna said seriously.
“Anna, I love you. As long as it’s your request, I’m willing to satisfy you. But I can’t understand why you want to invite them to be our best man and bridesmaid. I don’t know what you are thinking about. Why do you want to invite them?” Li Fei was very confused. But he also knew that if Qiao Anna insisted on, he would not refuse her.
“Are you unwilling to do that?” Qiao Anna looked at Li Fei with a grievance.
“If that’s what you want, I will never refuse you. But Anna, I’m also for your own good. Ling Tianyi hurt you, but you still…” Li Fei couldn’t finish.
“Li Fei, I know you are kind to me. In fact, it’s not totally Ling Tianyi’s fault for that, I also have the responsibility.”
“I knew that Ling Tianyi loved Xia Xiaoluo from the beginning, and I don’t want to break them up due to this incident. In fact, what Ling Tianyi said is right. If he marries me reluctantly due to his responsibility, it will be the tragedy of me, Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo. So I agreed to Ling Tianyi’s behavior of cutting the knot. Even if he wanted to marry me reluctantly, I would not agree because I won’t marry someone who doesn’t love me.”
“Li Fei, you must know that I don’t love you. But I promised to marry you because I could feel your care and love for me. So I made such a choice.”
Qiao Anna said seriously, and Li Fei listened to her carefully.
“Anna, you can understand my goodwill, I’m really moved. Also, I’m really happy that you can think about the problems so thoroughly. Anna, don’t worry. I will be kind to you, and I will love you, put you in the first place in my heart and protect you. When the baby is born, I will be kind to the baby as well. I believe that you will fall in love with me one day.” Li Fei said with love. It seemed that he had forgotten to invite the best man and bridesmaid.
Of course, Qiao Anna wouldn’t forget it.
Qiao Anna sighed and said to Li Fei, “Ling Tianyi is your friend, he is also my best friend, Ling Tianxue’s brother. Ling Tianyi and I are also friends. Ling Tianyi and I don’t break up our friendship due to this matter, and we are still good friends. So I don’t want you to break up with Ling Tianyi due to this.”
“Anna, you are so generous. I’m so lucky that you are willing to marry me.” Li Fei sighed. He thought that it was rare for a woman who was so generous.
“You are flattering me. In fact, I also have my own plans.” Qiao Anna said with a smile.
“Oh? Really?” Li Fei was confused.
“The Qiao family and the Ling family have close business dealings all the time. The Ling family’s Huasheng Group is the business leader in A City. Although the Qiao’s Group is not bad, it is going downhill these years, while the Ling’s Group is rising steadily. If the two families broke up due to this, it will affect the business and my family. Now Ling Tianyi is also very sorry for me and He wants to take responsibility in another way. He has promised many times that he would help me as much as possible, in addition to my marriage and love. So, I also hope that when it is necessary, he can help the Qiao’s Group to create a win-win situation together.” Qiao Anna said.
“Anna, you are really…really…, I don’t know how to describe you. You’re such a wonderful woman. You think more than me.” Li Fei sighed.
“If we invite Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo to be our best man and bridesmaid, then many of the previous unpleasant things will be gradually forgotten along with these pleasant things and our two families can still be very good friends. Especially for me, I don’t have any talent in the business. If Ling Tianyi could support me behind scenes, it will be beneficial to me.” Qiao Anna said.
“Since you say so, I will not object. I will invite Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo to have dinner together when we have time. I don’t think they will refuse us, and I think they dare not to!” Li Fei said.
“Well! At that time, just stop aiming at Ling Tianyi. You have been friends for so many years, and I don’t want you to break up your friendship since childhood because of me.” Qiao Anna said gently, but she was planning something evil in her heart.
“Well, I’ll arrange it as soon as possible! But can you stand it? Or I’ll go there alone and discuss with them?” Li Fei was really worried about Qiao Anna. He thought that the pregnant woman needed to be protected all the time. Even Qiao Anna asked him to go out, he would confirm her physical condition again and again, for fear that Qiao Anna could not stand it.
“Don’t worry, I’m okay. I’m just pregnant for about a month, and you have already been concerning like this. Then will you be scared to death when I am about to give birth to the baby?” Qiao Anna said jokingly. Of course, she must go, no matter what the situation was, she must go. Otherwise, she could not be able to frame Xia Xiaoluo.
“OK, if you are uncomfortable, please tell me in advance, and I will try to arrange it according to your time.” Li Fei said, and then he added, “Anna, it’s too dangerous for a woman to give birth to a baby. This is the first time for you to give birth to a baby, and I won’t allow you to give birth to a baby again in the future.”
Qiao Anna was moved by Li Fei’s words again. If there was no Ling Tianyi, maybe she would really fall in love with Li Fei. However, there were no ifs in the world. She had fallen in love with Ling Tianyi. It was her destiny that couldn’t be avoided or changed.
Li Fei called Ling Tianyi in front of Qiao Anna.
Ling Tianyi was also very happy in his heart to receive Li Fei’s call. Because Luna told him that Li Fei was very indifferent to her and was unwilling to accept Luna’s help these days. Li Fei took the initiative to find him this time, so he finally had a chance to make up for it.
But Ling Tianyi didn’t expect that Li Fei wanted to invite him and Xia Xiaoluo to be their best man and bridesmaid.
“Li Fei, I will be the best man for you, and I can be a good best man. But I have to discuss with Xiaoluo about it after she finishes her classes, and I don’t want to force her.” Ling Tianyi said.
“OK! Tell her as soon as possible. I’ll wait for your answer. But Ling Tianyi, don’t be too proud. Now that Anna invites you, do you want to refuse her?” Li Fei said.
“I see, and I’ll try my best to arrange it. You can call me at any time if you need help.” Ling Tianyi said.
