The people who came and went got to know Chi Hailang.

  It was hard to tell if they were sincere or just trying to flatter him, but a number of them, taking his arm, proclaimed that they had to find a partner for him.

  Chi Hailang shuddered nervously and kept saying that he already had a girlfriend. This left the group of nosey women who wanted to suck up to Li Beinian looking disappointed.

  However, there were a few tactless people who started to ask Chi Hailang details such as what his girlfriend looked like, where she was from, how old she was, and where she lived. It was as though they were trying to get him a new girlfriend.

  Hence Chi Hailang came smiling and left a nervous wreck. From then on, he never did dare to step into places with too many women. This situation only improved after he had married Lin Yuxin.

  Of course, this was all in the future.

  With everyone’s blessings upon her, the bride was happily escorted into the car.

  \r \r \r

  After Li Beinian got into the car, she saw someone whom, while not completely unexpected, was still rather surprising to see.

  Li Haoran stood a distance away and seemed to have noticed Li Beinian looking at him.

  However, when he met Li Beinian’s clear and translucent eyes, there was a moment of awkwardness. He looked away in embarrassment and did not dare to look her way again.

  Fortunately, Li Beinian did not dwell on him for long and quickly looked away as well.

  She acted like she didn’t know him.

  Li Haoran clenched his fists and relaxed them again, feeling rather upset.

  He felt a sense of helplessness as he watched the sleek and fiery red Bentley drive the couple away. His emotions were complex.

  In the past, he had ever tried to imagine what it would be like to give his daughter’s hand in marriage.

  However, he could never have imagined that Li Beinian would be led by her “other father”, to be given to the man who would be her husband.

  Regardless of whether it was Mu Xichen or Nico, Li Haoran found it hard to compare with them and felt rather pathetic.

  Fang Zhili stood beside Li Haoran and seemed to have read his mind. However, she gave his hand a squeeze and did not say anything.

  Old Master Li was in high spirits as his granddaughters crowded around him. Everyone enjoyed listening to pleasing words. Besides, Li Kun and Li Ying had a natural talent in sucking up to others. Old Master Li was overjoyed from all the coaxing and gave them red packets, making them even more attentive.

  It wasn’t that they were after the money in the red packet. It was just a joyous occasion, and it was never wrong to have a good time on a happy day.

  Li Meng did not join them. Instead, she stood from afar and suddenly saw a very formally dressed and noble-looking man of mixed parentage walking towards Li Haoran, with the help of a middle-aged gentleman.

  She recognized that this man with dark hair and eyes was Li Beinian’s biological father.

  Of course, Li Haoran knew his identity. As Nico approached, oddly, he became nervous.

  Nico had a natural aura of superiority, one look was enough to completely suppress the man.

  Although Nico tried his best to restrain himself and smiled as much as possible to make himself look amiable, this innate quality could not be concealed.

  Li Haoran’s palms started to sweat.

  Nico smiled and greeted the man, “Hello, Mr. Li. I’m Nico Rothschild, Beinian’s biological father.”

  Li Haoran smiled and extended his hand. “How do you do.”

  However, Nico had no intention of shaking his hand. His smile became even more amiable. “Thank you for giving Beinian a terrible family. Mr. Li, have a good day.”
