Chapter 31: The wedding anniversary (1)

The next day.

Nana didn’t have the time to even breath. Firstly she confirmed that transportation will be on time for food to deliver. She had already started the food prep last night and now she was completely immersed in cooking. Apart from her own staff, she had also requested help from Mr. Cao to help with some kitchen staff, who will exactly follow her recipes.

The twins also helped a lot. They were coordinating with many other people part of this whole process for everything to go without any hiccups.

At five pm, everything was ready. All the food containers were arranged for transportation.

“Pretty sister, I’m here!”, Mingyu’s cheerful voice came.

“Mingyu.” She picked him up. “Let’s go. We have to leave now. And you remember your promise right?”, she asked.

“Yes. I will always stay beside you.”

“Good.”

Just then Chen Jianyu also came.

“Everything’s ready? You sure you haven’t forgotten anything?”

“Yes. I have cross-checked many times. Everything is ready. We are good to go.”

“Alright. Let’s go.”

Nana took a deep breath and prayed for everything to go well.

They reached the venue – Symphony Royale, some fifty minutes later. Nana and all others were dazzled.

“Wow. This place is so lavishly decorated. And it’s so huge.”

“Look at the chandelier above. So pretty…can I hold my future wedding here?”, Dong Meiling asked.

“Hah! In your dreams!”

Nana said, “We can chit chat about this later in detail. Now we have got a lot of work to do. So hurry up everybody.”

Nana, the twins, and all the staff got busy with arranging the dining area. Mingyu was happily following behind her.

By six-thirty, as estimated, all setup was done. From afar she could see guests starting to fill in the banquet hall. They started arranging for light snacks and drinks.

People from prominent families and businesses arrived. They were all CEO’s of national and international multi-chain companies. There were some politicians as well. They had already started talking among themselves. Every person standing wore outfits costing a million Yuan in the least. Women wore custom-tailored dresses with custom made matching jewelry.

Nana shook her head. This was the first time she closely saw such a luxurious banquet.

So rich! Seriously. How much money can help the underprivileged?

When she raised her head, she could see a gorgeous woman entering wearing a champagne-colored dress. With her was a couple, probably her parents, who were looking equally elegant.

She was seen talking with some guests.

“Mam. Can we start serving the starters?”, Meiling and Xiaoli asked.

“Yes. More than half of the guests have arrived, so we can start serving.”

“Right away Mam.”

Finally, the snacks and drinks were on their way.

“Suyin! You look so beautiful. It’s like the dress is made just for you. I want to see who can have the guts to come prettier than you”, Mo Ya, her friend complimented her.

“Thanks, Yaya.”, Suyin said.

“And what about us? We are also standing here. Madam Tang pouted.

“Of course Aunty. How can I forget you? Mmm.Sorry Suyin, but there is already a person who has outshone you. Your own mom.”

“You!”, she playfully hit her.

“Hahaha. Really. You know how to butter me up.”

“Where is your father?”, Mr. Tang, Suyin’s father asked Mo Ya.

“Ah, he is over there talking to Mr. Su.”

Madam Tang shook her head. “Please forget your work at least for today. We are here to enjoy.”

The staff came serving with trays of light starters – spring rolls, stuffed potato wraps, and chicken tenders.

“These look delicious! Let’s try each of them”, Yaya said.

They all took one bite.

“Mmmm….so yummy! Who made these? They are so tasty.”

Madam Tang also appreciated, “Yes yes. They are really delicious.”

Suyin nodded, “Seriously. Huian has done a good job of hiring this chef. He must be really one well-known chef. I will have to ask her. We can also contact him with one of our parties in the future.”

—

“Nee-chan! Everybody really liked the starters.”, Yukito said excitedly.

“Yes. We heard some guests talking that they can even have dinner on them.” Yukira laughed.

“Obviously. My pretty sister is the best.”, Mingyu chimed in.

Nana sighed in relief. “That’s great. Guests are liking our food. It’s a good start.”

“Mam. The dinner setup is done. Can you please come and check?”

“Yes.”, she turned towards them, “I will come back in a minute.”

“Okay.”

—

Nana quickly checked all the food set up – the appetizers, entrees, salads, desserts, and beverages. She gave one final check to the silverware, bus bins, and water pitchers.

Good. Everything is set. I should now head back.

On her way back, she met Liu Jinhai.

Her heart thudded a little.

“Mr. Liu”, she politely bowed, “Happy wedding anniversary.”

He nodded. “Thank you. And I got the report. The guests are already in love with your food. Good job.”

She smiled widely. “Thank you, Mr. Liu. I’m also very happy to know that they like it.”

He paused for a bit.

“My father is the one who cannot stop eating it. We had to stop him from overeating. He says he got reminded of someone. A few days back, he ate somewhere where he couldn’t forget that food’s taste. He felt it similar.”

“That must be a coincidence.”

He nodded.

Nana felt something off about him. She saw his slightly furrowed brows.

“Umm..are you tired?”
