Chapter 202: The Wedding Date Has Been Set

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the end, the wedding was scheduled for April, in the early spring of the following year. The weather would be temperate and the flowers would be blooming at that time. With this, they could take their time to plan and prepare for the wedding. In the end, they decided to look for a wedding planner to help them with the preparation.

As for the venue of the wedding, Huo Zheng planned to find someone to build a mansion by the sea, in a forest, or on a private island. However, Lin Xiaowan shook her head and waved her hands when she found out about it. She thought it would be too wasteful.

“It’ll take a long time for the construction to be completed, right? Moreover, what are we going to do with it after the wedding?”

“It’s fine. We can use it as a holiday home in the future,” Huo Zheng replied.

“Forget it. It’ll be empty most of the time, and it’ll cost a lot to maintain it. It’s not worth it,” Lin Xiaowan said before she added, “I think we can just rent the venue. What do you think?”

Huo Zheng did not agree with this, but he did not want to refuse her too directly. After all, it would make it seem like he was too domineering. Hence, he decided to use his brother as an example to refuse her. He said, “When Brother and Sister-in-law got married, they bought an island and spent a year decorating the venue…”

Back then, Huo Cheng had spent more than 200 million to buy the island, and that was excluding the construction and everything else.

A few days ago, Qiao You’an had mentioned this island when they met.

Lin Xiaowan glared at Huo Zheng and hit him lightly before she said, “Why didn’t you say that the island is open to tourists now? Brother and Sister-in-law didn’t let the island go to waste. They’re making money…”

Huo Zheng was not focused on the key point. He pulled her into his arms and asked, “You call Huo Cheng ‘Brother’, but you won’t call me ‘Brother’?”

Lin Xiaowan wanted to hit him again. “Why are you focused on this?”

The longer she was with Huo Zheng, the more shameless he became. He was no longer serious or aloof when he was with her. In her previous life and during the time when she had just been reborn, he had always kept a straight face and was very taciturn. It was as though that version of him was a fake.

In the end, after much discussion, Lin Xiaowan got her way, and they decided to rent the venue. The venue was in a manor in a private forest overseas.

The manor belonged to a very good friend of the Huo family. It was a typical ancient manor. Its design was complicated and gorgeous. It was mostly vacant and served as a holiday home or a place to hold parties.

When the other party found out about Huo Zheng’s intention to borrow it for the wedding, he agreed without hesitation. He even said that there was no need to pay him rent to use it. Not only that, but he also told Huo Zheng that they could use the staff members there.

Huo Zheng expressed his gratitude by giving him a 10% profit from the latest cooperation project.

The reason Huo Zheng had given in to Lin Xiaowan was due to a few casual sentences from Huo Zheng.

At that time, Huo Cheng had said, “If Xiaowan wants to rent the venue, then so be it. You’re her husband. Why do you have to be at odds with her over such a small matter? If you really want to own your wedding venue, then just buy it…” Huo Zheng nodded. He felt that Huo Zheng’s suggestion was quite good.

Meanwhile, the enthusiastic and friendly owner of the manor had no idea that his manor had already been coveted by others.

The shop next to the dessert shop had already opened.

Lin Xiaowan had fun in the shop, making various desserts with the patissier. She had been coming to the shop a few days in a row.

It rained in the afternoon when Huo Zheng’s car pulled up to the entrance. His assistant had come to deliver the wedding plans to Lin Xiaowan.

Lin Xiaowan, who was secretly eating a small cake, hurriedly put the cake away and wiped her mouth when she saw the assistant. She asked, “Assistant Song, why did you suddenly come?”

Before Assistant Song could reply, she added guiltily, “There’s a new flavor of cake so I was just testing it…”

She had been going out a lot recently without Huo Zheng and had eaten too many sweet things and snacks. She also drank iced sparkling drinks, which caused her teeth to ache. One night, she was greedy and ate half an extra bowl of rice and meat. As a result, she vomited in the middle of the night until she was dizzy. For two to three days, she had a stomachache and a toothache.

Huo Zheng did not say anything, but the faint reproach in his gaze was obvious. Seeing this, Lin Xiaowan felt guilty and took the initiative to admit her mistake.

However, Lin Xiaowan’s self-control was truly too poor. Without Huo Zheng around, she could not help but eat. At this time, she was worried that Assistant Song would tell on her so she quickly explained herself.

Assistant Song smiled, pretending he did not see it. He handed her the proposal and a tablet as he said, “President Huo wants me to deliver wedding plans to you. He’s gone through them, and these are the few that he had selected. He wants you to choose from them…”

Lin Xiaowan scrunched up her face and said, “No need, no need. Huo Zheng can decide on this matter.”

Huo Zheng was an incredibly difficult client. He was very picky and controlling when it came to things like the color schemes, the varieties of flowers, the custom-made fireworks, and even the way the plates were arranged. He even controlled what kind of decorative tip was used to apply icing on the cake.

Lin Xiaowan had accompanied him a few times to deal with these things before fleeing. She thought she had successfully gotten away, but unexpectedly, Huo Zheng asked Assistant Song to send the proposal to her.

Meanwhile, Assistant Song turned a deaf ear to Lin Xiaowan’s words and focused on completing the task Huo Zheng had given him. He said, “Young Madam, President Huo wanted to know what you want to have for dinner, and he also asked me to send you back after this.”

Lin Xiaowan pouted and followed Assistant Song into the car.

When Lin Xiaowan arrived at the company, Huo Zheng was in a meeting. There were also two people waiting in the reception room.

When Lin Xiaowan walked past the two people, she turned slightly and asked in a low voice, “Assistant Song, is Huo Zheng very busy today? There are still people waiting for him in the reception room.”

It was almost 6 PM, after all, and she wondered if Huo Zheng could get off work on time.

When Assistant Song left to look for Lin Xiaowan, there was no one in the reception room. As such, he did not know the purpose of their visit. After bringing Lin Xiaowan into the office, he went out and asked around.

When Assistant Song returned to the office, Lin Xiaowan had already made herself a cup of milk tea. It was the kind made with instant milk tea powder and syrup. She also did not forget to add ice cubes to her drinks.

Lin Xiaowan had been here many times and had long familiarized herself with the people in the president’s office. She was very comfortable and was not as reserved as she was in the beginning. She even drew on mugs and gave them to the people in the president’s office. Everyone’s mug had a cartoon portrait and their name on it. Huo Zheng had one too, but he did not usually use it. He would only use it once in a while when his assistant made coffee for him. When she came, she would serve milk to him in the mug, but most of the time, he would coax her into drinking the milk instead.

Assistant Song sighed helplessly and said, “Young Madam, you’re drinking this again.”

“I’ve not been drinking milk tea recently,” Lin Xiaowan said confidently, “It’s been a long time since 1 had milk tea.”

As an employee, Assistant Song could only persuade her. After all, he could not tell her what to do. In the end, he said, “President Huo’s meeting will take a while. Do you want to go to the reception room? The people who came are here to discuss President Huo and your wedding attire…”

“Huh?”
