Chu Ge smiled as he approached Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan, saying, "Just in time, seeing you two makes me feel at ease. Come on in, my friend's wedding is in your hands."

Xu Jingyuan giggled, "Chu Ge, saying that puts a lot of pressure on us, but rest assured, we won't let you down."

Chen Jiatong chimed in, "Chu Ge, we'll trouble you to let us meet the bride and groom and their parents first. Firstly, we have some things we need to ask them, and secondly, we need to get their input on the hosting style."

Chu Ge nodded, "Alright, you two are seasoned at this, just go ahead. You have enough time to communicate. Try to be as thorough as possible in considering everything. I'll see what else I can help with, so I won't accompany you."

"Okay, we'll make sure this wedding is well-managed. Chu Ge, let's keep in touch."

Both Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan agreed with a smile, giving Chu Ge a reassuring look.

With the assurance from these two women, Chu Ge turned to Lin Fang and said, "Lin Fang, the bride should be in the lounge right now, take these two hosts over."

However, at that moment, Lin Fang seemed not to hear Chu Ge at all, standing stunned in place, with a look of disbelief still on her face, not only her but also the girl who came out with her to greet the hosts seemed petrified.

Even witnessing the lively conversation between Chu Ge, Chen Jiatong, and Xu Jingyuan in person, they still couldn't accept this reality.

Who was Chu Ge? Just a driver for someone, even if he was the chairman's driver of Tianjiao Group, that wasn't that impressive, right?

And Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan? They were definitely well-known figures! Even Zhu Youcai, who had climbed to the position of Section Chief at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and doing exceptionally well, didn't have the power to invite them over.

Yet, Chu Ge seemed to have no special reaction upon seeing these two people? These two even appeared to be taking their cues from him?

Is this world crazy, or am I dreaming?

Seeing Lin Fang's face full of astonishment, Chu Ge couldn't help but feel speechless. Wasn't it just a simple matter, so why the fuss?

Amused, he patted Lin Fang and urged again, "Hurry up, the two hosts are waiting for you."

Feeling the force on her shoulder, Lin Fang finally snapped back, blinking and murmuring naively, "Uh... huh? What?"

Chu Ge broke into a sweat, realizing Lin Fang didn't hear a word he had said all this while.

"I said, please take them to meet the bride. They need to know some details before they can host Stone's wedding."

Hearing Chu Ge say this, Lin Fang turned half-petrified again, after two or three seconds, she pointed at herself with an uncertain tone and asked, "Me... me? Take... take them? Did I... did I hear wrong?"

With more black lines on his forehead, Chu Ge firmly nodded, "Yes, you heard right. Go quickly, if you delay any longer, the ceremony will start."

This time, Lin Fang finally came to a full realization, quickly nodded, and with excitement approached the smiling Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan, made a "please" gesture, took over the attire they brought, and then led them into the hotel doors.

Seeing Lin Fang lead Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan forward, the girl who came out with her could not hide her envy. She cast a timid glance at Chu Ge, momentarily unable to speak out of extreme astonishment, only rushing after them in delight when Chu Ge humorously gestured for her to go along and help.

With everything settled here, Chu Ge returned to the banquet hall to find Shi Tong and told him the hosts had arrived and wanted to meet with him and Wang Na's parents.

To Shi Tong, this was indeed a piece of good news worth waiting for, a burden in his heart finally fell, he sincerely expressed his thanks without asking anything else, and then called his future parents-in-law to head towards the bride's lounge.

Seeing this scene, everyone started to get the sense of things, and when Chu Ge rejoined the group, someone asked, "Chu Ge, are the hosts here?"

Chu Ge nodded, "Yes, they're here."

Hearing this, Guan Rui and Zhu Youcai felt a bit displeased, especially Zhu Youcai, feeling that Chu Ge had taken the spotlight meant for him, but since he hadn't managed to arrange this, he could only sulk quietly without saying much else.

Everyone did some odds and ends, and finding nothing else to do, returned to the table, only to realize at that moment that Lin Fang and another girl hadn't come back yet.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Where did Lin Fang and the others go? They'll need to set off the fireworks later."

Chu Ge casually replied, "Oh, they took the host to see the bride, they should be back soon, it won't delay anything."

Zhu Youcai was already in a foul mood, and hearing the word "host" just made him more upset. He snorted and said, "Ha! This host is quite full of themselves, needing an entourage just to meet the bride. Do they think they're some big star?"

Hearing this, Chu Ge immediately chuckled. Zhu Youcai had really hit the nail on the head; in their eyes, Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan did seem like stars.

Seeing Chu Ge laugh, Zhu Youcai assumed he was mocking him, so he asked with a forced smile, "Chu Ge, who exactly is this host you found? It's about time you stopped teasing us with suspense, isn't it?"

Catching the sour tone in Zhu Youcai's words, Chu Ge couldn't help but smile slightly. He finally understood what it meant to be a glutton for punishment. Since Zhu Youcai was basically asking for it, Chu Ge didn't mind giving him a metaphorical slap.

However, just as he was about to speak, Lin Fang and another girl came running back with excited expressions, eyes fixed on Chu Ge, full of surprise and admiration.

Seeing Lin Fang and the others look at Chu Ge like that, Zhu Youcai frowned and asked them, "Lin Fang, did you see the host? Are they really that impressive?"

Lin Fang nodded with a smile, "Mm-hmm, we saw them, they definitely are impressive. But as for who it is, I think it's best not to say for now, better to keep some mystery, right? You'll all find out soon enough."

After speaking, Lin Fang gave Chu Ge a bright smile, her eyes shining with excitement and a hint of cunning.

"Lin Fang, are you keeping secrets from us too? Being all mysterious, who is it? Are you sure the host Chu Ge found is reliable?" Someone else asked, getting even more curious since Lin Fang wasn't saying.

Lin Fang had decided to surprise everyone and shook her head, "Oh, they'll be out soon enough, you'll see then."

Seeing Lin Fang continue with the mystery, Liang Jinjiang couldn't help but laugh and said, "I bet Chu Ge actually got Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan to come?"

"Ha! What a joke! If Chu Ge could really get them to come, I wouldn't need to be a section chief anymore, I'd just go be with Chu Ge."

Hearing Zhu Youcai say such things, Chu Ge couldn't help but roll his eyes internally, thinking to himself, "Can't you just stop with the nonsense? With your capabilities, wanting to hang out with me? No thanks, who do you think you are?"

Lin Fang and the other girl's expressions became strange, trying not to laugh, especially Lin Fang, who almost spat out her sip of water.

Noticing the change in their expressions, Zhu Youcai suddenly had a bad feeling, wondering if he'd gone too far with his words?

However, after a second thought, he concluded that with Chu Ge's status, there's no way he could really invite people like Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan. He must be overthinking it, Chu Ge couldn't possibly have that kind of pull.

The same scene caught Cao Xu's attention, and he found it quite amusing. He took a drag from his cigarette and slowly said, "Youcai, if Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan really do show up, will you actually resign and follow Chu Ge?"

Zhu Youcai froze, and even though he had previously judged that Chu Ge couldn't pull it off, he now felt a bit uncertain.

Listening to Cao Xu's question, Chu Ge was speechless and, to prevent Zhu Youcai from continuing to tangle with him over this, he quipped, "Da Xu, Section Chief Zhu was just joking around, why so serious?"

Initially, Zhu Youcai did feel a bit insecure, but seeing Chu Ge say that, he regained his confidence.

Plus, since Cao Xu kept backing Chu Ge and opposing him, he lifted his chin and said, "Of course."

Then Zhu Youcai suddenly changed his tone, turning to Chu Ge and said, "Chu Ge, but if the ones you invited aren't Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan, shouldn't there be some sort of explanation?"

Chu Ge internally rolled his eyes again, thinking, "Can this guy be any more shameless? Betting on a sure loss and acting so smug, what the hell is in his head?"

Speechlessness aside, Chu Ge outwardly smiled and said, "Section Chief Zhu, it's all a joke. Let's change the topic?"

The more Chu Ge tried to de-escalate, the more confident Zhu Youcai became, thinking Chu Ge was guilty and scared, and shook his head, turning his nose up and said, "Chu Ge, how about this, if Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan don't come, you'll... treat us all to a meal, and I'll pick the place, how about it?"

Although Zhu Youcai wanted to make a more shameless suggestion, knowing that Cao Xu and Liang Jinjiang were supporting Chu Ge, there was no way he could say anything too outrageous, so he reluctantly made this request.
