Chapter 790: Wedding (2) of 2

Senior Xie Mansion.

The sun is s.h.i.+ning down on the people brightly.

Congratulations to you two. Haha.

Thank you for attending our wedding, Uncle Liu. Haha. Xiao Bing, this is Ministry of Healths Minister Liu.

Director Wu, please come in. This is my husband. This is Director Wu from the Development and Reform Commission.

Haha. Aunt Chen, this is Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing, this is our Aunt and her husband.

The mansion is crowded.

Xie Huilan grew up in this environment and is used to these events. She knew most of the people there, but not Dong Xuebing. Sweat is dripping off his forehead after receiving guests for around one hour. His suit is wet, and he is exhausted. He knew such a political event would be tiring, but he did not expect it to be so exhausting. His throat is dry, and he doesnt even have time to go to the toilet.

Guests are still arriving.

Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan stood by the door to receive the guests, and Xie Guobang, Xie Guoliang, Han Jing, and the rest entertained them inside.

Suddenly, Xie Jing walked over. Sis, Brother-in-law, the Chief Secretary is here.

Dong Xuebing quickly straightened his back and tried to look smart. His palms are wet from his sweat.

Xie Huilan nodded and replied as if nothing had happened. I know. She continues smiling and chatting with the arriving guests.

A few moments later, the Chief Secretary walked over with a bright smile.

This is Dong Xuebings first time meeting the Chief Secretary, and he is very nervous.

Xie Huilan held Dong Xuebings arms and walked forward to greet the Chief Secretary. Other guests either stop chatting or lower their voices.

The Chief Secretary points at Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan. Hahaha. Huilan. Its been a few years. You are getting prettier and prettier. I almost didnt recognize you.

Xie Huilan smiled gracefully. Chief Secretary, you are making me blush.

Blush? I have not seen you blush after your sixteenth birthday. Hahaha. You must be Xiao Dong. The Chief Secretary patted Dong Xuebings shoulder. You have done well, young hero.

Dong Xuebing quickly acknowledge modestly.

The Chief Secretary did not stay there to chat with them. He congratulated Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing and entered the mansion.

Senior Xie walked out with the help of his doctor, and he nodded to the Chief Secretary.

The Chief Secretary quickly went up to help Senior Xie. Senior Xie, why did you come out?

Senior Xie laughed. You are here. Come in.

The Chief Secretary smiled and helped Senior Xie return to the house.

This is not a surprise. Although the Chief Secretary is the highest-ranking Premier in the Nation, Senior Xie is one generation above him. Senior Xie and his father were formerly comrades, and he is the Chief Secretarys elder. The Chief Secretary must show his respect toward Senior Xie. Only a handful of people in the country hold the same status as Senior Xie.

Dong Xuebing is relieved after the Chief Secretary left. He is honored for the Chief Secretary to attend his wedding, but he knows he is here because of Senior Xie. He had heard from Xie Huilan that the Xie Family could enjoy its status because of Senior Xie.

After a while, the Premiers wife arrived.

Dong Xuebing forced himself to remain calm and alert again.

The Premiers wife congratulated Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan. She told them the Premier could not attend the wedding because of work. She is here as his representative and has brought gifts.

Dong Xuebing quickly thanked her.

Everyone is here, and the banquet starts.

The Chief Secretary chatted with Senior Xie and congratulated Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan again before leaving. The Chief Secretary is very busy and has no time to wait until the end of the banquet. Furthermore, Xie Huilan is the Third Generations eldest daughter. She is not the eldest son, and theres a slight difference in the guests att.i.tude.

Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing walked the Chief Secretary out.

The Premiers wife did not leave. She continued to chat with Senior Xie and asked about his health.

It seems that Senior Xie is the star of this wedding.

After the banquet started, Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan went to all the tables to drink with the guests.

This is a test of alcohol tolerance, and all the guests are at least Bureau-Director level. Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan had to drink with every guest, respectively, and could not drink with all the guests at the table. They couldnt even count the number of gla.s.ses if they did it. Luckily, Han Jing had switched the Maotai in Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilans bottles to water. This is not disrespecting the guests. No one on earth can drink so much alcohol, and the guests are understanding. They will not point it out even if they know its water.

Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan offered toasts to the seniors, like Senior Xie, Fourth Grandpa, Xie Guobang, Luan Xiaoping, etc., followed by every guest at the various tables.

Minister Liu, let us offer you a toast.

Director Chen, thank you for coming despite your busy schedule.

Aunt Liu, we will bottom up. I know you cant drink. Hahaha. You can take a sip while we finish our gla.s.ses.

Xie Huilan does all the talking, and Dong Xuebings job is to drink the alcohol.

One gla.s.s.

Five gla.s.ses.

Ten gla.s.ses.

Dong Xuebing felt his stomach bursting as he continued to smile and chat with the guests.

Even if they are not drinking alcohol and water instead, he is getting bloated.

A wedding is a such torture. Why was I so anxious to get married?

Dong Xuebing grumbled in his heart but stopped grumbling when he saw his mother drinking with Han Jing happily.

Its rare to see his mother so happy.
