Urban Soldier Young Master

Chapter 983 - 982: The Wedding Approaches (Part 2)

"Feeling..." Chu Ge thought for a moment, "To be honest, I'm a bit bewildered. I don't really know if I can become a good husband, or if I can be a good father in the future."Hearing Chu Ge say this, Yu Jingsong burst out laughing again.

"Oh my? Our fearless Chu Ge, who always thought he was the best in the world, actually has moments of insecurity? But your answer really surprised me; I thought you'd say you can't just go hit on girls randomly anymore."

Chu Ge rolled his eyes, this old Yu, still so irreverent...

The Hummer continued forward, the senior and junior on board arguing and laughing as the car reached the restaurant Chu Ge had booked in no time.

Chu Ge and Yu Jingsong got out of the car, and the bus following the Hummer also stopped. Dozens of people got off, but the atmosphere seemed quite peculiar. The looks directed at Chu Ge carried different meanings: some were observing him like a curious creature, some seemed to be resigned, and others couldn't help but giggle.

Different looks, but the same silence.

Until Zhu Youcai, walking awkwardly, stared straight at Chu Ge, then tripped and fell flat on his face, only then did the crowd erupt in laughter, breaking the eerie silence.

Although no one explicitly said anything, Chu Ge understood the situation at a glance. After all, Liu Weijiang was also on the bus, and Zhu Youcai, after boasting at the last gathering, now met Liu Weijiang and clearly learned things he probably never dreamed of.

Moreover, to be honest, within the bus, Liu Weijiang wasn't exactly a heavyweight figure. It's no wonder Zhu Youcai responded so dramatically. Not to belittle him, but the fact that he hasn't wet his pants already shows he has decent composure.

The private room Chu Ge booked was on the third floor of the restaurant, very spacious, with four tables placed at an appropriate distance from each other.

Chu Ge greeted everyone, they settled down, he thanked them, toasted everyone with a drink, and the meal officially began.

At the beginning, the atmosphere was quite awkward. Except for He Qing, everyone else appeared somewhat restrained, sitting upright, their gazes a bit unfocused.

Even Mu Xiaoting, who considered herself experienced with many occasions, felt some pressure in the face of He Qing's inadvertently strong presence; as for others, even more so.

Chu Ge wasn't surprised by this situation. But isn't there a saying, "The first time is unfamiliar, the second time becomes familiar," just eat and mingle, and it'll be fine.

Everyone there was a guest; Chu Ge couldn't possibly attend to them all individually. Besides, among these people present, who knows, they might end up helping each other in the future. It was beneficial for them to get to know each other, and achieving their desired outcomes would depend on their abilities.

Supporting Chu Ge was their best reward, and many here, only by being in this room, realized what a rare opportunity it was, and how Chu Ge had such powerful friends.

While many in the room felt nervous, excited, and tense, they didn't realize that aside from those present, many who had interacted with Chu Ge never received notice of his wedding.

For Chu Ge, this banquet lineup, which many found incredibly impressive, was actually quite low-key.

Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan, worthy of their reputations as charming speakers, maintained their poised smiles even with Chen Jue, who shared some unpleasant memories with them, understanding well that given the relationship with Chu Ge, Chen Jue wouldn't trouble them over it.

In this slightly awkward atmosphere, Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan quickly made an impact, and with Chu Ge's assistance, started a table game where losers drank or performed. In less than five minutes, laughter and light conversation filled the room.

After eating and drinking for a while, tomorrow's bride Qin Ruojing appeared in the private room. It wasn't that she intended to neglect Chu Ge's friends; after all, some came to Kyoto for Chu Ge, while others specifically for Qin Ruojing.

Qin Ruojing hadn't stopped all day, constantly greeting and accommodating friends and family from afar, sneaking away to have her sister handle things just so she could come and toast.

Today, Qin Ruojing wore a fiery red dress that perfectly accentuated her figure. Her black hair was elegantly tied in a bun, and she wore light makeup on her delicate face, looking bright-eyed and radiant.

When Qin Ruojing entered the private room, she instantly captivated everyone. Lin Fang couldn't help but recall the previous gathering where she teased Chu Ge, remembering her exact words.

"Chu Ge, it seems like you're set to become a general manager, take the CEO title, marry a beautiful rich lady, and reach the pinnacle of life. Isn't it a bit exciting just thinking about it?"

How much time has passed... The jokes she made about Chu Ge have all turned into reality, and Chu Ge's wife is truly stunning!

When Qin Ruojing approached Chu Ge with a beaming smile, it wasn't just Lin Fang who thought of this. Everyone who attended the last gathering also thought of the same thing, and they all sighed in their hearts.

However, they quickly realized that Chu Ge must have already been doing quite well back then, just not fond of showing off, thus keeping a low profile. After all, not much time has passed since the last gathering. If Chu Ge and Qin Ruojing hadn't already had this relationship, how could they have gotten married so quickly?

At this moment, Zhu Youcai was filled with regret. If he had known Chu Ge was this impressive, why did he bother to show off when he last saw him?

In Chu Ge's eyes, Zhu Youcai was probably nothing but a complete fool, which is why Chu Ge couldn't be bothered to argue with him.

The same scene, viewed through different people's eyes, carried different thoughts. Chu Ge's childhood friends from the orphanage were astonished by his abilities, while the women attracted to Chu Ge were full of envy and admiration for Qin Ruojing's skills.

Yes, if Qin Ruojing didn't have skills, with so many women around Chu Ge, why was Qin Ruojing the one chosen to be his wife?

Under these emotions, several almost inaudible sighs quietly sounded.

Qin Ruojing and Chu Ge first toasted Yu Jingsong, who was not only the oldest in the room but also one of the people Chu Ge respected the most. Despite their bickering banter, their familial affection was genuine.

The feeling was that they could mock each other all they wanted, but if anyone else criticized either of them, the other would immediately be displeased.

As they drank the toast, Yu Jingsong felt gratified that Chu Ge had made it this far and found such a beautiful and wealthy wife, as that was Chu Ge's good fortune.

Despite feeling gratified, he couldn't help but feel some regret. Once upon a time, he thought that Chu Ge and Situ Ying were inseparable, yet tomorrow Chu Ge would be married, and that girl who seemed like Chu Ge's shadow was nowhere to be seen.

After finishing the drink, Yu Jingsong felt a mix of emotions.

Although Yu Jingsong didn't say much, only smiled and set down his glass, Chu Ge understood from his eyes the regret and sighing in his gaze, feeling a bit lost himself.

After toasting Yu Jingsong, Chu Ge and Qin Ruojing moved on to toast the others more casually, since Yu Jingsong was at the table, Qin Ruojing planned to first toast all of Chu Ge's childhood friends from the orphanage.

Before toasting, Chu Ge was ready to briefly introduce everyone at the table to Qin Ruojing, first gesturing toward Cao Xu.

"This is Cao Xu, you can just call him Brother Xu. Your husband used to hang out with him, and he's now the director at the Qinggang City Bureau of Electricity."

Qin Ruojing smiled and shook hands with Cao Xu, "Hello, Brother Xu."

While their hands shook formally, Qin Ruojing suddenly remembered that time when Chu Ge went to Qinggang City, leading to the bizarrely frequent power cuts and calls from a game company, and her hand paused slightly as she glanced at Chu Ge.

"Honey, let me formally introduce you to this one. This is Liang Jinjiang, your husband's close buddy, now working at Lidu Customs."

Seeing the hint of suspicion in Qin Ruojing's eyes, Chu Ge quickly diverted the topic, laughing while introducing Liang Jinjiang, Lin Fang, Zhang Qing, and the others to Qin Ruojing.

While Chu Ge was introducing these people, Zhu Youcai was incredibly tense. The closer it got to his turn, the more nervous he became, with sweat beading on his forehead, his eyes twitching slightly, and his heart pounding like a rapid drumbeat.

Zhu Youcai was sitting next to Zhang Qing, and during the introduction of Zhang Qing, the sweat on Zhu Youcai's forehead increased, with a few drops even sliding down his greasy forehead onto his chubby cheeks.

Because, after Chu Ge introduced Zhang Qing, he was next.

The word 'anxious' could no longer describe Zhu Youcai's mood at this moment. He dreaded Chu Ge might say something unpleasant or skip over him to introduce Qin Ruojing to Guan Rui on his other side, which would utterly humiliate him in front of everyone.
