Master Head of the Dragon Soul

Chapter 200

“Dear, let’s not wait any longer. As Feng said, he’s on his way here soon, to put on the wedding dress for her and to see her off,” Liu Minglan, who stood behind, suggested cheerfully. Her wrinkled face was full of joy and happiness. “Seeing both of them finally getting along together really makes my day! And oh, did you see Yingying’s wedding dress? Oh my god, it costs 400 million! Feng is really awesome! I wonder how he is able to earn so much!”

“Ha! Of course he is able to do so! He is my son after all!” Zhou Lie laughed. He continued proudly, “Like father, like son. That kid got a temper the same as mine when I was young. Ha!”

“Oh, you shameless old fool!” Liu Minglan remarked crossly. She began to contemplate seriously, “By the way, the kid is old enough to get married himself, am I right?”

Zhou Lie glared at Liu Minglan. “What a busybody old lady you are!”

“Well, yes, I am! What do you care about anyway?” Liu Minglan put her hands on her hips. With a pair of lively rotating eyes, she glanced at almost all the girls within the suitable age range around the place. She then began to consider them one-by-one carefully in her mind.

Indeed, it was normal for old women like Liu Minglan to be interested in matchmaking. After all, the joy of marrying her daughter off to someone was very different from the joy of her son getting married himself. Liu Minglan preferred having grandchildren from his son over having grandchildren from her daughter.

“Zhou Lie, Liu Minglan, what are you doing outside on such a merry wedding day?” Suddenly, the proud Tang’e walked toward Zhou Lie and Liu Minglan in an annoyingly pretentious and arrogant manner. She stopped about three meters away while frowning and fanning her hand in front of her nose, as if she smelled something obnoxious from Zhou Lie and Liu Minglan.

“Are you waiting for some VIP relatives? Oh, of course, today is Mingxuan and Zhou Ying’s wedding day, certainly you need to invite some notable relatives so that you don’t feel humiliated, am I right? Look at all the guests of our Sun Family, they are mostly businessmen, entrepreneurs, lecturers, corporate leaders and other notables. All of them are prominent figures in the society,” Tang’e sighed and remarked disdainfully.

“Mr. Tang, don’t say that. You’re being too kind.”

“That’s right. Mr. Tang, it’s our honor to be able to attend your grandson’s wedding today.”

“Mr. Tang, if you need my assistance in the future, please do not hesitate to ask. I’ll try my best to assist you.”

The surrounding guests were busy buttering Tang Taishan up with flatteries. They were happy and honored to be invited to the wedding.

Meanwhile, Sun Mingxuan and Tang’e were on cloud nine to be flattered by their guests. They felt excited and were extremely proud of themselves.

Sun Jianye too, came and shook Secretary Wang’s hand excitedly. “Secretary Wang, I’m truly sorry to bother you to come all the way here by yourself. You’re too kind,” Sun Jianye said.

Although Sun Jianye was the third-in-command of Jiangling City, he still treated Secretary Wang, the Chief Secretary of the Mayor with respect.

“You’re welcome. It’s an honor for a younger generation like me to be of service to an honorable senior politician like Mr. Tang, who serves the citizens earnestly. I’m certainly lucky to witness Mr. Tang’s graceful demeanor and to have such a golden opportunity to learn from the great man,” Secretary Wang said with much sincerity in his voice. Then, he turned to Sun Mingxuan and smiled. “You must be Mingxuan. Initially, Mayor Yan planned to come in person and congratulate you on

your wedding, but unfortunately, he had to attend to some important businesses, so he asked me to come on behalf of him and send his best wishes to you instead. Here is the calligraphy written by Mayor Yan himself, as a wedding gift for you, Mingxuan.”

As he finished, Secretary Wang passed Sun Mingxuan a large piece of Chinese calligraphy. There were four Chinese characters ‘Bai Nian He Hao’ written on the calligraphy piece, which carried the meaning of ‘live together in harmony forever’. The calligraphy looked graceful and magnificent.

Sun Mingxuan’s excitement was beyond description. He bowed and thanked Secretary Wang repeatedly, “Thank you Mayor Yan. Thank you Secretary Wang. I-I really appreciate it!”

The guests were envious of Sun Mingxuan. Those were calligraphy written by the mayor of Jiangling City himself. The calligraphy would bring glory and repel any bad omen—even demons and monsters would be frightened away—if it was hung in the lobby of the Sun Group, not to mention its commercial and artistic value. The calligraphy was a solid proof which showed that the Sun Family was completely under the protection of the mayor of Jiangling City. Who would be daring enough to harm the Sun Family? Weren’t they afraid of losing their lives for doing so?

Tang Taishan laughed heartily. Putting on a façade of seniority, he said, “Wang, continue your hard work. You’re a bright young man. You’ll achieve greatness in future.” There was an obvious trace of pride and arrogance in his words. “Years ago, Yan used to be my secretary who helped with some ordinary daily chores like serving tea and running errands. I often scolded him back then, but look at him now, he became the mayor of a city! I’m sure you’ll be more successful than him.”

“Mr. Tang, it is all because of your guidance. I still have a lot to learn from you and will certainly listen to your teachings in future.” Secretary Wang nodded with a smile. He left in a hurry after exchanging some greetings with Tang Taishan.

Suddenly, the wedding became merrier following Tang Taishan’s arrival and the discussion revolved around him.

The guests were surprised by the Sun Family’s ability to invite a prominent figure like Tang Taishan, even the Mayor of Jiangling previously worked under him. The old man was truly incredible!

Tang Taishan smiled and nodded at the relatives of the Sun Family while exchanging brief greetings with them. He also greeted the poor relatives from the Zhou Family with a simple nod and grin, pretending to treat his beloved citizens with equality in order to show off his noble act of egalitarianism. However, like Tang’e, Tang Taishan kept his distance of at least three meters away from the Zhou Family, while keeping himself closer to the notables and other powerful and influential guests.

The guests were orderly divided into different cliques according to their social status. This put Zhou Lie and his family ill at ease. Since his arrival, Tang Taishan behaved like an orchestra conductor and became the center of attention as the guests were busy acquainting themselves to him. It was as if he was the Sun and the Earth would have to revolve around him.

It was not long before Tang Taishan smiled and looked at Zhou Ying. “You must be the bride, such a beautiful and virtuous lady. You mustn’t forget to behave yourself and to be obedient after you’re married into the Sun Family, alright?”
