Chapter 2539 Qiao Ya's Appearance Shocks Everyone
Chapter 2539
Haijing smiled and said, "We've already registered, but the wedding won't be held here; it will be at the bride's family home."
The crowd was somewhat surprised. Li Ping said, "You didn't marry into the family, did you?"
"Generally, only when a man marries into his wife's family will the wedding ceremony be held at the woman's home."
Usually, the groom's family hosts the wedding ceremony, and the bride's family just sets up a few tables.
Haijing didn't want to say much about it, just smiled faintly and found a seat.
Because there was also Joa, he vacated the seat next to him.
After everyone was seated, some people took the initiative to talk to him, and Hai Jing answered them all.
He may not like this occasion, but that doesn't mean he can't handle it.
At this moment, his gaze swept across everyone's faces and quickly landed on Bai Ji's face. He hadn't expected to see her in such a setting.
He frowned almost imperceptibly.
Regardless, Bai Ji was his ex-fiancée, and Xiao Ya was his current wife, so it was bound to be somewhat awkward for them to meet.
But he quickly regained his composure.
For him, Baiji and he were things of the past, and there was nothing he couldn't tell others.
Just then, the door opened, and Haijing thought Qiao Ya had arrived, so he hurriedly turned his head to look.
The man who came in was a bit overweight. He looked to be in his thirties and walked with a swaying gait.
His hairline was starting to recede, and his face was very oily.
After the man entered, he immediately saw Baiji and said with a smile, "Baby, I'm here."
Bai Ji smiled awkwardly and introduced him to everyone: "This is my husband, Li Xu."
Everyone stood up to greet them.
Someone asked, "Where does Mr. Li work?"
Li Xu said proudly, "I own an import and export company."
"The company is not very big, only about forty or fifty people."
As soon as he said that, everyone looked on with envy. In this day and age, to be able to run a company and have forty or fifty workers was truly remarkable.
This company is quite large.
Of course, companies with hundreds or thousands of employees do exist, but they are unlikely to encounter such companies.
For them, owning a shop or a company is already considered a very good deal.
At this point, someone came over to flatter him.
He kept calling him "Brother Li," and Li Ping, who was standing next to him, was slightly displeased by this.
Today we're here to celebrate his housewarming, but everyone's so busy showing concern for others that they don't really care about him.
However, he also knew that Li Xu's company was much bigger than his own. Unlike him, his company was just a shell company with four or five people, and he earned very little money each year.
But Li Xu's company was much bigger than his, so he really wanted to curry favor with him.
Once you think about it that way, there's nothing to be unhappy about.
Just then, the door opened again, and Josiah arrived.
The moment Qiao Ya walked in, countless eyes turned to her.
When they saw Joa, their eyes were filled with shock.
Because Josia wore a red dress today, the kind of evening gown for attending a banquet.
Her dress was shaped like a fishtail, with her hands on her waist, revealing her shoulders and neck.
Her hair was pulled up into a bun, with two loose strands falling down, and she wore a few pearl ornaments.
It made her look radiant and beautiful.
The moment she appeared, she became the most eye-catching presence in the entire banquet hall.
Almost everyone was amazed by her at that moment.
Hai Jing naturally knew what his wife looked like, and he didn't actually want Qiao Ya to come looking like that.
But Joa said, "Today I represent the face of your seaside resort, so I must dazzle everyone. Only in this way can I bring you honor."
Hai Jing didn't seem to care, but didn't say anything more.
Now, seeing Qiao Ya walk in, and hearing the gasps and greedy eyes of the crowd, he felt a pang of regret.
It would be better to tell Qiao Ya not to wear this outfit, but since she's already here, there's no point in regretting it now.
He hurriedly stepped forward, took off his coat, and put it on Qiao Ya.
Qiao looked at him suspiciously and said, "I'm not cold."
Haijing said, "No, you're cold."
Qiao Ya pursed her lips, noticing something in his eyes; she guessed Hai Jing was jealous.
She smiled and took Hai Jing's arm, saying, "Okay, I'm cold. Thank you for giving me the coat, honey."
Hearing Qiao Ya call him "husband," Hai Jing's expression softened slightly, the corners of his lips turned up, and he felt much happier.
The two quickly walked to their seats, and Haijing respectfully pulled out a chair a little and considerately helped his wife sit down.
Then he sat down next to them and completed the whole thing in such a smooth and seamless manner that everyone's eyes were fixed on them, and there was complete silence.
Bai Ji naturally saw this scene as well, and at that moment, her feelings were very complicated.
She had been with Haijing for so long, and Haijing had never treated her like this before, let alone helped her get dressed or moved a chair for her.
He never even did something as simple as handing her an apple.
At that time, the seascape seemed like a giant pig's trotter, completely oblivious to the existence of others.
They are all self-centered.
Now look at the sea view next to Qiao Ya, he's definitely the perfect husband.
Bai Ji couldn't understand how a person could change so much. Was it because Hai Jing had never loved her and never cared about her, or was it because Qiao Ya was a cunning woman?
Most of the people present were ordinary people who did not know Qiao Ya. Even those who were in business, unless they reached a certain scale or level, would not have the opportunity to meet anyone from the Qiao family.
So nobody knew who Joa was.
After everyone was seated, Li Ping tentatively asked, "What's your name, ma'am?"
Qiao Ya looked at him calmly and said, "My surname is Qiao, my name is Qiao Ya, and I am from Hong Kong."
Her words drew everyone's attention back to her.
People from Hong Kong, you all naturally understand what I mean.
Li Ping asked curiously, "You don't sound very Hong Kong. I thought you were a local."
Qiao Ya said gently, "Because I study locally, I am a student at Tsinghua University."
"Having lived in Beijing for so long, I've naturally lost much of my Hong Kong accent. My Mandarin is alright, I guess!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that it was a good idea.
When Joa was dealing with the crowd.
Haijing didn't interrupt. Seeing a plate of boiled shrimp on the table, he turned the plate around and took out two pieces of shrimp.
Then peel the shrimp shells.
The shrimp meat was placed on Qiao Ya's plate.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Ya naturally picked up the food with chopsticks and put it in her mouth to eat.
After taking a bite, she pouted somewhat unhappily and said, "These shrimp are overcooked and not tasty."
Haijing said, "Then give it to me, don't waste food."
Qiao Ya hummed in agreement and stuffed the remaining piece of meat into Hai Jing's mouth.
