Kiss the wrong pregnant bride

Chapter 239 Preparing for the Wedding

The banquet ended in an orderly manner, and after seeing off the guests, Zuo Xiaomo specially stayed to discuss the preparations for the wedding with Shao Le.

Ling Xiaoxi sat on the sidelines in a daze, turning a deaf ear to what they said.

Zuo Ruoxin held Shao Qipeng's arm shyly, ignoring his stiff body, and leaned into his ear from time to time, chatting intimately.

"I don't have any requirements for the marriage. Mr. Shao can make the decision. I just hope that my younger sister can be treated as she should be in the Shao family, and that the crown prince can treat her kindly." Zuo Xiaomo casually wrote the documents of the wedding plan Throwing it on the table, Xin Chang's figure was lazily leaning against the sofa, gently playing with Ling Xiaoxi's strands of hair hanging from her shoulders, and said in a deep voice.

"Ruoxin has always been my dearest relative at home, and I don't want to see her suffer any grievances."

The smile on Shao Le's face changed obviously. He didn't know if Zuo Xiaomo knew about the no progress relationship between Zuo Ruoxin and Shao Qipeng during this period of time, or did he just mention it casually?

"Of course, if Ruoxin will marry into the Shao family in the future, it will be our Shao family. As an elder, I will treat her well." Shao Le nodded immediately and gave a promise.

Zuo Xiaomo raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and turned his gaze to Shao Qipeng. His answer was what he wanted to hear.

Shao Le hastily winked at Shao Qipeng. At this time, he doesn't want his son to commit another crime. Now that the wedding date has been set, no matter whether he is willing or wants to repent, he must continue. I'm sorry for this man!

Shao Qipeng raised his eyelids slightly, his eyes hurriedly swept across the people in the guest room, and finally fell on Ling Xiaoxi, that gaze full of pain and determination made Ling Xiaoxi have the urge to rush out, even, she At one point, she wanted to speak, hoping to end the marriage, but reason stopped her.

Under Shao Qipeng's fiery gaze, her head slowly dropped, and dark shadows emerged around the corners of her eyes.

Zuo Xiaomo clenched her fingers and almost broke her hair.

The faces of Zuo Ruoxin and Shao Le also gradually became ugly, the atmosphere of silence permeated the whole room, danger was imminent.

"Qi Peng..." Shao Le called out in a cold voice, and gave Shao Qi Peng a warning look with his bright eyes.

"I will treat her well." The words were almost squeezed out from between the teeth, stiff and dry.

He knew that in this life, he really couldn't be with the woman he loves anymore.

His heart, like thousands of ants gnawing on it, was so painful that he broke into a cold sweat.

Zuo Ruoxin breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged his stiff arm tightly, "Qi Peng, you are so kind!"

After finishing speaking, she tiptoed and kissed Shao Qipeng's face quickly.

Shao Le smiled cheerfully, and seemed to be extremely satisfied with this scene, "Okay, if there are no other questions, I will let people prepare for the wedding according to the plan."

"No problem." Zuo Xiaomo chuckled lightly. This kind of ending, both for him and for Shao Le, was welcome.

Ling Xiaoxi kept watching Shao Qipeng's appearance from the corner of her eye. She didn't miss his stiff expression, or the pain and numbness on his face.

Heart, sank to the bottom.

When leaving, Zuo Ruoxin wanted to stay at Shao's house no matter what, and wanted to promote their relationship with Shao Qipeng, but Zuo Xiaomo didn't force her, but just told her to pay attention to safety, so she took Ling Xiaoxi and drove away. Xiao Xi's mood was not high all the time, she pursed her lips tightly, staring at the street scene outside the window in a daze, what kept churning in her mind was Shao Qipeng's almost numb face.

"If you really think about him, you should make yourself more cruel. Indecision will only make people more painful." Zuo Xiaomo saw her hesitation and struggle, his face sank slightly, and said cruelly: " The marriage between the Shao family and the Zuo family is imperative, even if you regret it now, it's impossible, not to mention breaking the cocoon, don't you understand this truth?"

Ling Xiaoxi's eyes darkened slightly, "I'm just a little guilty."

Seeing Shao Qipeng like that made her feel very uncomfortable. The brother Qipeng she knew should be gentle, kind, and perfect like a prince.

But what about him now?But like a walking dead.

"I'm really guilty, so try to let him come out." Zuo Xiaomo said indifferently, he admitted that he has selfish intentions, a man who is eyeing his own woman, it's best to solve it as soon as possible!What's more, if Ruoxin likes him, to facilitate this marriage, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for the brothers and sisters.

Ling Xiaoxi nodded slowly: "I know what to do."

Hesitating all the time will only make her and him more painful, and a sharp knife can cut through the mess.

The wedding date is approaching, and Zuo's workload is gradually increasing. During this time, Zuo is preparing to win the foreign market. Zuo Xiaomo leaves early and returns late almost every day, while Ling Xiaoxi accompanies Zuo Ruoxin to prepare working on the wedding.

"Isn't the wedding dress ready yet? Didn't it mean that the design was rushed out last month?" Ling Xiaoxi threw the bridesmaid's dress on the bed and asked with a frown.

"I don't know, the Shao family is the designer. I remember the contact information of the designer in my brother's dedicated computer." Zuo Ruoxin pouted and said softly, "Help me to find out about these photography companies. , which one is better?"

"I'll go to the contact number of the designer first, you can look over here." Ling Xiaoxi patted her on the shoulder, turned around and walked out of the room, into the study, she opened Zuo Xiaomo's personal notebook, and was recording the contact form In the document, I found the contact information of the designer. Just as I was about to leave, suddenly, there was a ding dong in the mailbox that was automatically logged in, and there was the sound of receiving an email.

Ling Xiaoxi opened the mailbox and saw that it was an invitation letter from Las Vegas Casino.

"Zero, next month's gambling king competition, I hope you can come to participate, as the last gambling king to cut the ribbon for the competition, in addition, you asked me to destroy all the materials about five years ago, all have been cleaned up, remember to pass the balance to my account."

Las Vegas?

A city so sensitive that Ling Xiaoxi will never forget, the information from five years ago...

She squinted her eyes carefully, carefully read the invitation letter a few times, and faintly, she always felt as if she had grasped something.

"Sister-in-law?" Zuo Ruoxin's loud voice came from outside the house, Ling Xiaoxi hurriedly turned off the computer, the doubts in her mind were suppressed in her heart, maybe she was just worrying too much.

After contacting the designer, the other party claimed that the wedding dress had been sent to the country by a special plane yesterday and would arrive at the airport in the evening, Zuo Ruoxin clenched her fist and cheered excitedly.

"By the way, have you chosen a photography company yet?" Ling Xiaoxi asked with a smile seeing her ecstatic appearance.

"Not yet, why don't you help me make up my mind." Zuo Ruoxin passed all the information of the photography company to Ling Xiaoxi, "These are all well-known domestic photography companies. good."

Ling Xiaoxi chose the company for her to shoot, and accompanied Zuo Ruoxin to finalize the location of the wedding photo shoot. The smile on her face never disappeared throughout the whole day.

Until late at night, Zuo Ruoxin had been busy all day, just returned to the room, fell asleep after washing, Zuo Fengyu fell asleep after finishing his homework, and was comforted by the nanny. outside quiet.

Ling Xiaoxi sat on the sofa set in the living room, holding a teacup, with a slightly dazed expression.

She hasn't forgotten the unexpected email, and no matter how she thinks about it, she always feels that something is wrong.

Zuo Xiaomo secretly asked people to destroy what materials from five years ago?How did he become the king of gambling in Las Vegas?

The more he thought about it, the more Ling Xiaoxi frowned.

"Om—" The sound of the sports car's engine being turned off interrupted her meditation, and Zuo Xiaomo's muscular figure slowly walked into the villa.

"Are you back?" Ling Xiaoxi hastily put down the cup in his hand, and walked forward with a smile.

"Specially waiting for me?" Zuo Xiaomo raised the corner of his mouth, this feeling of being waited on made him extremely satisfied.

"Today is an hour earlier than yesterday, I thought you would be busy until midnight." Ling Xiaoxi took off his suit jacket for him, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and said softly.

Zuo Xiaomo reached out to wrap her arms around her waist, raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly: "Wouldn't it be better to come back early to accompany you?"

"Slick tongue." Ling Xiaoxi had already grown resistant to his sweet words from time to time, "By the way, the wedding dress will be delivered tonight, and I accompanied Ruoxin during the day to choose the shooting location."

"It's up to you to decide such a small matter, there's no need to tell me." Zuo Xiaomo sat on the sofa wearily, picked up her teacup, and took a sip.

"It smells so good." The words meant something, I don't know if it's the used cup or the tea that smells more fragrant.

Ling Xiaoxi folded the coat, put it on the counter beside him, and gave him a blank look.

Carefully smoothing out the folds on the clothes, she pretended to be casual and asked, "By the way, did you know? I recently read the news and heard that the Gambling King Contest is about to start."

Zuo Xiaomo's expression changed slightly, something flashed quickly in his deep eyes, "Are you interested in this kind of thing? Why didn't I know before? Do you want to go?"

His tone was the same as usual, without any change.

"I haven't seen the legendary Gambling King Contest yet, so I'm a little curious, so I just asked casually." Ling Xiaoxi said vaguely and perfunctorily, but the doubts in his heart continued to increase instead of diminishing.

His expression was too normal, but according to that email, if he was the last gambling king in Las Vegas, how could he be so calm.

Ling Xiaoxi always feels that Zuo Xiaomo is hiding something from him, but he can't explain why.

In addition, at this time, he seemed to have become unfathomable.

"If you're interested, I can take you to Las Vegas, but it won't be until after our wedding." Zuo Xiaomo said indifferently.

"It's still early." Ling Xiaoxi put away the deep thought in her eyes, and smiled: "I'll get you bath water."

Zuo Xiaomo nodded slightly, until her figure disappeared into the room on the second floor, then pulled the buttons of his shirt and walked towards the study.

The position of the notebook had been obviously moved. His long figure was isolated by the desk, his deep eyes slowly swept across the entire desk, and then he pressed the power button with his index finger, but nothing abnormal was found.

That email had already been completely emptied by Ling Xiaoxi.

Just a coincidence?She suddenly brought up the gambling king contest...

Zuo Xiaomo's face was slightly gloomy, under the dim light, his cold and perfect face exuded a chilly aura.
