His Genius Wife is a Superstar

Chapter 1310 - Congratulations, Mr. And Mrs. Lu



Dragon Palace Home #10.

The wedding banquet this time was very small because of the lack of ample time for preparations. Not every guest they called could attend on such short notice. 

Despite this drawback, the final result suited the newlyweds just fine. Both Lu Zihao and Long Jinjing preferred this kind of more intimate atmosphere in having fewer people to help celebrate their marriage.

In fact, Long Jinjing was genuinely surprised and amazed upon returning at the mansion. She couldn't believe that her friends were able to pull together something like this within just a few hours. Literally.

At first, she thought that they would only have a slightly more luxurious early dinner together. She didn't expect that there would be an actual banquet prepared for her and Lu Zihao in such a short amount of time.

Iris and Jin Liwei did everything in their power to host a memorable banquet inside their own home. Their household staff demonstrated their excellence by how swift, organized and flexible they were all throughout the rushed preparations, and of course, how excellent their level of service during the actual banquet. It wasn't just the food and table arrangements. Even the decorations were beautifully done. 

But the biggest credit should be given to Chen Fei who was the mastermind of this rushed marriage celebration. Without her, Long Jinjing might have continued delaying her marriage with Lu Zihao due to her low self-esteem.

Long Jinjing couldn't stop herself from feeling so emotional when she saw everyone greeting her and her fiancé. Oh right, Lu Zihao was now her husband!

"Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Lu!"

"Best wishes to the new husband and wife!"

"Everybody! The newlyweds have arrived! You know what time it is? Time to partaaaaaaaayyyy!!! Yay!!!!!"

The newlyweds were showered with joyful wishes all around. 

When Long Jinjing saw her mother, her tears flowed down without control.

"Don't cry!" Sun Jingfei wiped her daughter's tears with a handkerchief. "Your marriage is a happy and festive event. There shouldn't be any tears!" Her own red eyes watered even as she said this.

"Mom!" Long Jinjing hugged her mother—or tried to. She could only do some sort of a side hug with her huge swollen belly. "You're here. I'm so happy that you're here!"

"Of course, I'll be here! What kind of mother will miss her own daughter's wedding without any valid reason? I want to scold you for only informing me this morning and almost giving me a heart attack but I'll do it another time. For now, go ahead with your husband and thank everyone who came today to celebrate your marriage."

She nodded.

Lu Zihao also greeted Sun Jingfei. "Auntie."

"Why are you still calling me that? Call me mom."

He paused for a moment and looked a little uncomfortable but still said, "Mom."

Sun Jingfei grinned and nodded in approval. "Now go, you two."

Lu Zihao took his wife and they personally greeted everyone. 

Long Tengfei and Yang Jiahui came. The bride's father was a little disgruntled. He had already been busy at work earlier this morning when he suddenly got a call inviting him to attend his own daughter's wedding banquet in the afternoon. He had a déjà vu of his other daughter's wedding last year.

"Why do my daughters love having surprise weddings?" Long Tengfei grumbled. "They're indeed sisters! Is it really that hard for them to give me, their father, at least three days, no, even just two days notice of their actual wedding day?"

Yang Jiahui only listened to him without saying anything. She knew that her husband was happy for his two daughters deep inside despite his complaints. 

Grandma Li attended as well. Her daughter-in-law, Huang Yuyan, was still staying at Dragon Palace to personally help take care of the twins. 

Actually, Huang Yuyan was supposed to leave after Iris completed her confinement but the new grandmother was extremely reluctant to leave her adorable baby grandsons so she couldn't help but extend her stay in the mansion. Fortunately, her son Jin Liwei and daughter-in-law Iris didn't mind her presence. To her credit, she didn't interfere with how the husband and wife ran their household so there was no friction between them.

The two older Jin madams had grown rather close to Long Jinjing especially after she started working for Iris' company, Orchidia. It was only natural for them to attend today's wedding banquet, not to mention that the groom was Lu Zihao, Jin Liwei's fifth brother and practically a family member to the Jins.

Alric Bauer, Orchidia's German CPO, also took a half day-off like Chen Fei to attend today's wedding banquet. He felt that he must attend because Long Jinjing held Orchidia's purse strings. If he displeased her, his budget increase requests might not get approved.

Jin Chonglin was unable to attend due to his full schedule today. He could only send a present to the newlyweds.

After chatting, everyone headed to the banquet. Even though everything was rushed, the girl squad still managed to come up with a simple yet enjoyable programme.

Dom happily became the emcee and entertained everyone with his lively wit and humour. 

Iris also stepped forward and performed three songs while playing the piano. She would have performed more songs if not for her twins, specifically the eldest twin Little Mochi, crying for her attention.

There were speeches by Grandpa Lu and the parents of the bride, Sun Jingfei and Long Tengfei.

Long Jinjing turned into a sobbing mess while listening to her parents. Lu Zihao was at a loss on how to coax her to stop crying. Fortunately, there was the adorable Little Jun who managed to distract her and make her feel better with his cuteness.

The cats, Ice Cream and Popcorn, were also free to roam around during the banquet. Ice Cream guarded her twin baby brothers. Anyone who didn't know how to carry the baby twins properly received a judgmental glare from the fat, grey cat.

The atmosphere was casual yet still elegantly effortless thanks to Iris and Jin Liwei's very competent household staff.

Finally, Dom handed the microphone to the new Mr. and Mrs. Lu.

"Thank you very much for coming today," Long Jinjing said through her teary eyes.. "Zihao and I are so happy to share this special memory to all of you."
