Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 702: Chapter 702

After Huo Jingrui hung up his family’s phone, a cold light flashed in his eyes as he thought of the Du and Gong families.

After some contemplation, he dialed another number: ”It’s me, Huo Jingrui. How is the matter progressing?”

”Since you gave the order, I naturally have to do it beautifully. Rest assured, I will ensure they are tightly bound together and then give them a head-on blow, making them tremble with fear.”

”That’s good. I’ll treat you to dinner when I return to Beijing. Feel free to order whatever you want.”

”You said it, brother. I will remember it.”

After hanging up, Huo Jingrui picked up the documents on the table and headed towards the meeting room.

There are more than forty days left until Yunyi’s birthday, and he needs to finish his current tasks quickly.

Afterward, he would urge the workshop to promptly turn the other two design works into finished products. Once they’re approved and mass produced, the factory can rely on these products to earn foreign exchange, and the workers can receive higher wages and benefits, making his effort here worthwhile.

The time is tight, and the tasks are heavy.

Today is the wedding day of Du Shujian and Gong Fangyue. To show her regard for the daughter-in-law, Zhang Xiaolu booked six tables at the Yinguolou, demonstrating great generosity.

However, the groom showed no signs of happiness throughout the event.

Many people whispered among themselves: ”I heard that the son of the Du family didn’t agree to this marriage at all.”

”Hah, the deed is done, and now he doesn’t want to? Who is he pretending for?”

”What do you mean?”

”Don’t you know? The Du family’s son and the Gong family’s daughter got involved with each other and were caught red-handed, leading to today’s wedding feast.”

”We heard that the boy from the Du family was set up.”

”You believe that? With his cunning nature, who could set him up? I think it’s the Huo family not budging, and he doesn’t want to wait any longer, so he found this excuse.”

”Why does this involve the Huo family? Which Huo family are you talking about?”

”You don’t know? Of course, it’s the Huo family from the military compound upfront.”

”What’s the story? Tell us quickly.”

”The young girl from the Huo family and the boy from the Du family have been dating all along, initially in secret from their families. Later, the matter was exposed.”

Someone in the know said, ”Given the relationship between the Huo and Du families, they’re likely wasting their effort.”

”You’ve got that right. The adults in both families don’t agree, but the young ones are doing whatever they please. You oppose it your way, I’ll date my way.”

Those unaware now understood the general situation from these conversations. Whether the Du family’s boy was forced or made a move himself, nobody knew.

Zhang Xiaolu, a person who cares about appearances, held a grand wedding. When the dishes were served, the praises were abundant. Hearing everyone’s discussions, her smile never faded; she finally felt a sense of pride.

Marrying into the Gong family brings only benefits to the family.

She flitted like a tireless butterfly today, mingling with the guests at each table.

But just as the wedding feast was nearing its end, police in uniform arrived, directly approached the table of Gong Fangyue’s parents, found Gong Father, and spoke to him quietly: ”Please come with us to cooperate with the investigation.”
