956 Try on Wedding Gowns
"Oh, I must go with you!" Cao Wenxin was more interested in watching Gu Man trying on wedding gowns, which was more fun than decorating the house.
…
Gao Yi and Qiao Ya left for a nearby hotel after they sent them back to Huafu Hills. While Gu Qinyang and the others were used to going to bed early so they went to sleep after resting for a while.
Cao Wenxin didn't want to sleep alone in her home tonight, so she went to fetch her sleeping gown before she slept with Gu Ning.
…
"Ningning, will your schoolmates come?" Cao Wenxin asked.
"Yeah, there are eight of them. Five are boys and three are girls," Gu Ning said.
Chu Peihan and the others were Gu Ning's best friends, so she had invited them to come.
Although Gu Ning was unwilling to interrupt their studying, because the National College Entrance Examination was around the corner now, she thought that they might be disappointed if she didn't invite them.
When they heard that Gu Ning's mother was going to be married, they all agreed to come without hesitation.
In order to save their time, Gu Ning booked plane tickets for them on Friday night. They would stay in City B on Saturday and fly back to City F on Sunday. It would be fine if they only took a break of a weekend. They wouldn't miss their classes either.
Gu Ning booked round-trip tickets for all of them, and they joked that they were going to cost her a lot more money since she was so rich.
"Unfortunately, we can't stay in City B for a few days longer, otherwise we would be enjoying ourselves there!"
"I think that we can, but I'm afraid our boss has a different idea. She's kicking us back to City F on Sunday."
"Alright, our boss just doesn't want to interrupt our studies."
They clearly knew that, so they didn't blame Gu Ning for it, and were just joking. They hadn't seen Gu Ning in a long time, so they actually ached to gather together with her.
Gu Ning promised them to do that the next time.
"You have many friends. Are you only going to invite a few of them?" Cao Wenxin asked again.
"Yes, they're my best friends," Gu Ning said.
Gu Ning had no intention to invite her common friends or acquaintances. It was her mother's wedding after all, so it wasn't necessary for all of her friends to be present.
Gu Ning understood that her other friends might blame her if they found out that they weren't invited, but she still believed that it wasn't suitable for them to show up at her mother's wedding. If she was going to be married one day, she would invite them then.
Hearing that, Cao Wenxin agreed.
The next day, Tang Yunrong and Jiang Lihua visited Gu Ning's house with the wedding gowns to help Gu Man try them on.
Gu Man was very nervous when she saw those gorgeous wedding gowns, because they reminded her that she would soon be married. At the same time, she was also excited and thrilled. Every woman wanted to marry her beloved man in a beautiful wedding gown.
Even though she wasn't young anymore, it was the first time that she was getting married, so she was full of anticipation now.
Gu Man introduced Tang Yunrong and Jiang Lihua to her family and they greeted each other kindly.
Gu Qing and the others were aware of Tang Yunrong and Jiang Lihua's high social status, but both Tang Yunrong and Jiang Lihua were very friendly to them. So after a short while of chatting, they got along very well.
Although Gu Qing and the others still didn't know the Tang family's influence, they sensed that the Tang family must be very rich too.
Gu Man also relaxed when she saw her family getting along well with her sisters-in-law. Gu Man had told her family that her sisters-in-law were very kind and easy-going, but her family didn't believe it until they witnessed it with their own eyes today.
"Have you eaten?" Tang Yunrong asked.
"Yes," Gu Man said.
"Great, then let's go try on the wedding gowns and dresses," Jiang Lihua said, then went upstairs with all the females.
Jiang Xu and Gu Qinyang were left in the living room.
When they went to try on the wedding gowns, the people who came with Tang Yunrong and Jiang Lihua began to clean and decorate Gu Ning's house.
Because of Gu Man's age and her requests, the wedding gowns weren't very sexy, but were still fashionable. She needed to try them on, one after another to find the most suitable one.
When Gu Man was trying on the wedding gowns, both Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin started to dream about their own weddings. They would be married one day in the future too.
Cao Wenxin and Xin Bei were deeply in love now, but they had only been together for a short time, so their wedding day was probably still far away. They preferred to take it slowly.
And although Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had been together for a long time, and they wanted to marry each other, Gu Ning didn't meet the age of consent yet. She was also busy dealing with her businesses right now.
The others helped Gu Man choose the most suitable wedding gown and the dress for the toast. However, in case any accidents happened, they kept other gowns and dresses as backups.
It took nearly an hour for Gu Man to try on those dresses, so they went to have tea in the dining room afterwards.
