Chapter 579: 0569 Wedding Banquet Chapter 579: 0569 Wedding Banquet When this scene was posted online, it immediately caused quite a stir.
Even though the list of betrothal gifts wasn’t specifically made public, the mere sight of the entourage was enough to make everyone in Yong City green with envy.
People sighed in admiration at Su Xinyan’s good fortune and murmured about the formidable strength of the Gu Family.
It was just a wedding, yet money was spent like water.
As soon as Gu Heng entered the Su Family’s main door, he saw the woman in the living room.
Today, Su Xinyan was in a pure white bridal gown, an off-shoulder design with white pearl flowers embellishing the chest, a cinched waist emphasizing her slender figure, and a long train trailing on the floor.
Her face bore delicate makeup, nothing flashy or ostentatious.
Her milk tea-colored hair was all swept up, and she wore a white Phoenix Crown on her head, with a veil that floated ethereally, making her seem full of celestial grace.
Seeing Su Xinyan so pure and beautiful, Gu Heng was momentarily stunned.
Seeing the spellbound Gu Heng, a look of extreme satisfaction flickered in Su Xinyan’s eyes. She stepped forward slightly and approached him.
Blushing and happy, her tender voice was like the babbling of spring water.
“Brother Heng, have you arrived p>
Hearing this, Gu Heng finally snapped out of it. He hurriedly greeted Su Zhongyuan and Wen Peipei, then his gaze fell back onto Su Xinyan.
“Xinyan, you look so beautiful today p>
Su Xinyan smiled and looked up at him. Their eyes met, filling the air with a layer of ambiguous affection.
“Cough p>
Wen Peipei, seeing the two as if no one else existed, couldn’t help but cough lightly.
The color on Su Xinyan’s face deepened, and she shyly bit her lip, bowing her head.
Gu Heng, upon seeing this, had a face filled with tenderness and indulgence.
“Gu Heng, today I am entrusting Xinyan to you, you must not bully her p>
Gu Heng nodded his head. His expression was firm and serious, and his tone was more earnest than ever before.
“Grandma, rest assured, I will never let Xinyan down p>
Wen Peipei always held herself above others, but since Gu Heng became her prospective grandson-in-law, no one else could catch her eye.
It was as if the Su Family was now perched at the peak of a mountain, looking down on others with a sniff of their noses.
But no matter how satisfied, the necessary gestures of respect still had to be made.
Society was too realistic, and after marrying into the Gu Family, Xinyan would still need to face a whole household of the Gu Family’s members.
Although the Su Family was inferior to the Gu Family, their daughter was not someone who could be easily bullied.
Hearing the promise, Wen Peipei finally nodded in satisfaction.
It was then that Su Zhongyuan stood up from the sofa, speaking in a deep voice:
“Alright, it’s almost time, let’s get ready to leave p>
Wen Peipei frowned and glanced at the time, realizing that it was indeed almost time.
So, the group hurriedly got ready, and at exactly nine minutes and nine seconds past nine, they left the house on time.
The wedding banquet was scheduled for twelve o’clock at noon, while Gu Heng and Su Xinyan were first to head to the Gu Family’s place.
At eleven o’clock in the morning, Emperor View Hotel.
The wedding ceremony of Su Xinyan and Gu Heng was about to commence.
The entrance of the hotel was bustling with cars and guests, gathering a vast majority of attendees including celebrities and magnates from within the circles.
The atmosphere and grandeur of the scene were indeed befitting of the “Century Wedding” that had been the focus of attention a month prior.
President Su Hongde, Tan Lirong, along with President Gu Qiming and Deng Jingru, were currently standing at the entrance, receiving guests.
“President Su, President Gu, congratulations p>
“President Lee, you’re too kind, please come in p>
“Congratulations, President Su and President Gu, from today onward, the two of you are officially in-laws. This really is the envy of others p>
“Director Sun, congratulations to you as well, and I hope for your continued support in the future p>
“Certainly, certainly p>
Guests had already begun to arrive in an endless stream, creating quite a lively scene.
Deng Jingru, beaming, arranged the guests, feeling incredibly fortunate about her decision as she looked at the gathering of powerful and wealthy families.
Luckily, Gu Heng ended up with Xinyan. If it had been Su Ran, would the wedding banquet have today’s grandeur?
She knew that many people were here because of the international competition.
After this award ceremony, Xinyan would truly be known around the world.
The world champion’s work, personally endorsed, self-produced and sold.
And this world champion hailed from their Gu Family.
Xinyan was not simply an artist under Chongguang, she was now also their daughter-in-law, bringing glory and wealth enough to make others green with envy for a lifetime.
And of course, the Gu Family stood to benefit the most.
In this way,
Xinyan was not only the Su Family’s Lucky Star.
She was also the Gu Family’s Lucky Star, not to mention elevating Chongguang several notches, with profits beyond imagination.
Who could say her decision back then was wrong?
Time passed by the minute, and more and more guests arrived.
Among them were naturally guests who harbored a thousand dissatisfactions with the marriage between the Su and Gu families.
Especially with both families looking so proud and aloof, many found it difficult to watch.
With many guests already seated, Deng Jingru bustled about, her face perpetually wearing an arrogant and complacent expression.
Well-matched in social and economic status, the Golden Boy and Jade Girl.
This was the phrase she heard most that evening.
Some couldn’t bear to see Deng Jingru’s haughty demeanor, scrutinizing the wedding site with a trace of disdain flashing across their faces.
“The Gu and Su families are first-rate in Yong City, and now that they’re uniting, why couldn’t they pick a better hotel? Not to mention six-star or seven-star hotels, but at least they should have settled for a five-star hotel, right p>
Her companions, hearing this, also appeared to take pleasure in the disaster, with a hint of jealousy in their hearts, begrudging anyone a life better than their own.
“Exactly, didn’t they hype up ‘the wedding of the century’ online? Is this it? Whom are they looking down upon p>
“To spend 150 million on an engagement ring but fail to find a decent place for the wedding, that’s just embarrassing p>
“Turns out you’re all out of the loop, huh? I heard there’s a ban in the industry. All five-star hotels and above in Yong City are not to host any banquets for the Su or Gu families. So, it’s not that they can’t find a location, it’s that the hotels simply don’t want to serve them p>
“In that case, won’t the Gu and Su families be forever barred from five-star hotels p>
Their whispers did not escape Deng Jingru’s ears, who glanced back at them.
They looked at her, smiled awkwardly on their faces, exchanged glances, and fell silent, yet their hearts brimmed with disdain.
What’s there to be smug about?
They can’t even enter the elite social circles, yet they dare to put on airs in front of them!
Before long, most of the guests had arrived.
At twelve o’clock, the wedding banquet officially began.
After the master of ceremonies concluded his passionate welcome speech, the solemn wedding march began to play.
At the end of the red carpet, the grand doors slowly opened, and Su Xinyan, dressed in a white wedding gown, clung to Su Hongde’s arm, taking steps toward the other end of the carpet.
Filled with excitement, her beautiful eyes stealthily searched for Su Ran’s figure among the crowd but found no one.
Her brows furrowed slightly, a moment of doubt crossing her mind.
