Chapter 706: Chapter 561: Century Wedding of the Prestigious Family (Part 3)
——"However, we understand each other quite well. Whether at work or in love, she talks about many things with me. Her boyfriend, I know him well too. Back in middle school, he was already circling around my cousin, and now, unexpectedly, they are really together. Fate is truly amazing."
Hearing this, her previously indifferent and serious father-in-law finally showed a slight smile: "Boss Shi and your cousin grew up together, understanding each other thoroughly since childhood, so it’s no wonder they ended up together. After this wedding, if there’s a chance, you and Kun can invite them to Hong Kong City to play, and our family will surely host them well, and you young folks should have a good time together."
Already hitting a brick wall with Ning Youguang, Fang Han couldn’t even guarantee she would attend the wedding in Beijing, let alone convince Ning and Shi Wangyue to go to Hong Kong City with her.
But this was the first time since she knew Li Er that her serious and incredibly dignified father-in-law spoke to her so kindly, so she dared not be too firm in her words. She replied with a more gentle smile, "You know my cousin, as a front-line researcher, is always busy. Her boyfriend has to manage many companies both domestically and abroad, making him even busier. This time, it was because her research project was at a crucial stage that she couldn’t come. They’re often like this, busy to the point of having no time for a date. I don’t know when they will have the time to go to Hong Kong City for vacation, but rest assured, when I see a chance, I will definitely bring them there to play and pay you a visit."
Her father-in-law’s smile flickered for a moment.
But he still nodded politely, "Miss Ning and Boss Shi are both excellent young people; being busy is right."
After saying this, he stood up, "You all sit, a few old friends of mine have arrived, I’ll go have a word with them."
After he left.
Her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, immediately smiled warmly, took off a huge diamond ring from her hand, and put it on Fang Han’s, "My dear, I know you’ve always been the most obedient. Today is your and Kun’s big day. I came here thinking it was troublesome, so I didn’t bring anything good. This ring I got from a Christie’s auction; it goes well with outfits, so I often wear it. Now it’s yours. Wear it if you like; if not, put it away. When you come to Hong Kong City, I’ll give you something better."
Fang Han touched the nearly perfect teardrop-shaped diamond ring on her hand, feeling the discontent in her heart dissipate quite a bit.
With a look of surprise, she touched the ring, then reluctantly took it off her well-maintained, soft, white finger, and with both hands respectfully offered it back to Mrs. Li, speaking sweetly, "Mom, this is your cherished ring; how can I take away something you love? I’ve received your sincere gesture."
As she spoke, her eyes turned slightly red, seemingly deeply moved.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Li’s smile widened even more and she swiftly put the ring, valued at least ten million, back on Fang Han’s hand, "What the elders give you, just accept it properly."
Just as Fang Han was about to decline again, Li Er, at Mr. Li’s eye gesture, immediately grasped her hand, "Today is our wedding, and receiving gifts is everyone’s good intention. If you don’t accept, wouldn’t it waste my mom’s sincerity?"
"This..." Fang Han looked troubled as she glanced at Li Er, then at Mrs. Li.
Seeing this, Mrs. Li laughed continuously, "My dear, I know you’re a good girl from a good family, not valuing these things, but you’re now part of the Li family, and you should get familiar with how our family shows affection. Alright, you’ve had a long day; rest with Kun for a bit. I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll head out first."
She then instructed her son, "Kun, take good care of Hanhan, she’s tired."
"Okay, Mom." Li Er responded energetically.
Once Mrs. Li, dressed in luxurious attire, left carrying a small handbag and walking on her little high heels.
He immediately approached Fang Han and said gently, "When we hold a banquet in Beijing next time, we must invite your cousin and cousin’s husband. We’ll certainly entertain them well."
The voice was extremely tender and considerate. 1314
