Chapter 501: Yanyan Asks for Help
Every weekend, Xiaomai's life is unusually fulfilling. She spent the day at the old house yesterday. She had planned to take a day off at home today, spend time with her children, and start a new job on Monday.
But there are always unexpected things when you plan for something! Just after breakfast, Xiaomai's phone rang and she quickly picked it up.
"Hey! Yanyan."
"Hey! Xiaomai, do you have any plans for today?" Xi Yan asked straight to the point. The relationship between the two could be said to be like that of a pair of trousers, so there was no need to beat around the bush.
"No, tell me! What do you want to do?" Xiaomai said.
"Well, I want to prepare some wedding supplies. If you have experience, can you help me?" Xi Yan said embarrassedly.
"Ah! Have you and Achen set a date for your wedding? I must help, I'm your family!" Xiaomai said excitedly. Yanyan finally had a status, and she was really happy for Yanyan.
"Well! The time is set for the 17th of next month. Time is a bit tight, so I have to ask you for help. I can avoid taking detours." Xi Yan said.
"So anxious! Achen is so fast! Is he afraid that you will run away? He is so anxious to announce to the world that you are the wife of the famous star Xu." Xiaomai teased.
"The child is already born, where can I run? Who knows? He keeps saying whatever he wants and even says he won't hold the wedding in Su City." Xi Yan said.
"If we don't do it in our hometown, then where can we do it?" Xiaomai asked.
"Achen said that the Xu family is not a wealthy and prominent family, and they don't have many relatives and friends. This is even more true for me. I'm not an orphan, but I'm worse than an orphan. I don't have any relatives at all. Moreover, it is popular for celebrities like them to hold weddings abroad, which just avoids the embarrassment of me having no relatives. He said to hold the wedding in Bali." Xi Yan said.
Last time, Xu Chen announced the fact that he was married at the new drama launch conference. Of course, he wanted Xi Yan to have a legitimate reason so that they could go out without hiding.
After the two returned home, Xu Chen told his father and mother about his idea of giving Yanyan a grand wedding. The two elders must have been very supportive. They liked Yanyan very much. She was kind and filial, and gave them a big fat grandson. They had wanted their son to have a wedding for a long time, but due to Achen's profession, they had indeed wronged their daughter-in-law a lot. Now that their son had brought it up, they were naturally very happy.
When the family was choosing the date and wedding venue, they took Xi Yan's situation into consideration, and finally Xu Chen decided to hold the wedding in Bali. At that time, the few friends and relatives could just charter a special plane to go there.
"What about us friends? Can we go?" Xiaomai asked. I heard that most of the weddings held in Bali are held by well-known artists, and most of the people who attend the weddings are also people from the entertainment industry. Can ordinary people like me go?
"You guys! You must go, otherwise I will really be left without any family members." Xi Yan said.
"Okay, for you, I'll give it my all." Xiaomai said proudly.
"What do you mean? It sounds so forced to me." Xi Yan asked.
"You just realized that your wedding is full of celebrities. I would be a clown if I went there," said Xiaomai.
"Forget it, with your looks and figure, even celebrities would feel inferior to you. Just don't steal the limelight from me, the bride." Xi Yan said exaggeratedly.
"Okay, stop flattering me and tell me! What do you want me to do today?" Xiaomai asked.
Xi Yan smiled and said, "Xiaomi is the one who knows me best. I am not prepared at the moment. If you are free today, please accompany me to look at wedding rings and wedding dresses!"
"Where's Achen?"
"He has been notified to go to work and will be back in the afternoon. I can't wait." Xi Yan said.
"Is that so? Okay, I'll accompany you today and then you two can decide when Achen comes back. See you later!" Xiaomai said.
"Okay, see you at the old place later." So the two hung up the phone, and Xiaomai went to renew the appointment.
He Lingting strictly forbade Xiaomai to drive out by herself because of the last car accident, but today's situation was special! She couldn't go shopping with Yanyan and still have a driver! So she took the car keys and was about to go out, but was bumped into by an uncle who came in from outside.
"Where are you going? Didn't I tell you not to drive?" He Lingting asked coldly.
Xiaomai looked at the uncle's Bao Zheng face and wanted to act unruly, but after thinking about it, she didn't dare to do it. She decided to be gentle!
"Honey, Yanyan asked me to help prepare wedding supplies, and it would be inconvenient for me to take a taxi." Xiaomai said cautiously.
"It's not convenient. I'll take you there." He Lingting said coldly.
"That's not very convenient! You're not the groom, so it's not good to go along to buy bridal supplies!" Xiaomai said.
He Lingting thought about it and said, "Then I'll be your driver. It's ok if you don't follow me when you go shopping!"
"That's a bit of a waste of your time. How about this! You just drop me off and then go do what you need to do. After we're done shopping, I'll text you to pick me up, okay?" Xiaomai saw that He Lingting was determined not to let her drive out by herself, so she compromised.
"That's okay!"
Afterwards, He Lingting sent Xiaomai to the old place where he and Xi Yan had agreed to meet, and then he went to the company to work, while Xiaomai and Yanyan also went shopping.
"Xiaomi, I want to take a look at the wedding ring first." Xi Yan said.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." So the two of them came to the jewelry street and looked for a whole morning, but Xi Yan didn't have a favorite style. In the end, she could only settle for three simple and elegant ones, and wait for Achen to confirm them accurately.
Xiaomai saw what Xiyan was thinking, and she said hesitantly, "Yanyan, don't you have anyone you like?"
"Well, there's really nothing I particularly like."
"Yanyan, I have two wedding ring design drawings in my hand, which I just drew not long ago. I will send the designs to you and see if you like them. If you like, you can start customizing them!" Xiaomai said.
Then Xiaomai sent two wedding ring designs, one for a man and one for a woman, to Xiyan's mobile phone. Xiyan's eyes lit up at first sight and she liked them very much.
"These are the two that I like the most. Xiaomai, I love you so much. When I go back, I will ask Achen to transfer the design fee to you." Xi Yan said excitedly while hugging Xiaomai.
"Are you stupid? Asking me about money hurts my feelings. I'll ask the factory later and tell you how many days it will take to produce the finished products. Don't leave it too late as it may cause delays." Xiaomai said.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaomai." Xi Yan said with emotion. She felt happy enough thinking that she would walk into the marriage hall wearing the ring designed by her best friend.
