"Yangzi, can you hurry up? We're all waiting for you," the胖子 urged on the phone.
"I'm about to become a father, is it appropriate for me to be a best man?" Guo Xuyang was still reluctant.
"What's inappropriate about it? Compared to us, you're practically a young stud. Hurry up, don't dilly-dally."
"Doesn't Xu Dahai have plenty of nephews and nieces? He could have them do it."

"Why are you being so difficult? If we wanted them, why would we need you?"
"Alright then, I'll be there right away."
Xu Dahai was finally getting married, a major event for the Xu family.
This guy was incredibly stubborn; he had always refused marriage before.
No one knew what had spurred him on, but after participating in Stellar Scavenging, he found a girlfriend.
At the time, everyone thought he was just playing around, but they didn't expect it to actually lead to marriage.
Xin Dali and his group had arrived early to help.
His benefactor, Jiang Qixin, had also arrived long ago.
Guo Xuyang and Lu Liang had arrived earlier too, but Guo Xuyang had been tormented for a long time by Lin Ziqi, Li Si, and Gao Lihua.
Even during the rehearsal today, the three women hadn't let him off the hook.

"Hurry up and get over here, we're waiting for you. Why do you look so listless? Were you drained again?
I'm telling you, take it easy. Don't end up like Da Liu, needing a kidney transplant before seventy."
Pao Zi, Pi Xiaoqian, shouted at him.
His shout drew the attention of many people to Guo Xuyang.
Even though Guo Xuyang had a thick skin, he felt embarrassed by everyone's stares.
"If you can't speak properly, just shut up," Guo Xuyang cursed softly and quickly moved to stand behind Xu Dahai.
It was just a rehearsal, so everyone was wearing their own clothes and wasn't dressed formally.
Besides Pi Xiaoqian and Guo Xuyang, Xu Dahai had two other handsome young men as his best men, but Guo Xuyang didn't recognize them and wasn't in the mood to greet them.
Xu Lili's side had no one present; there were no bridesmaids either.
"Didn't you say it was a rehearsal? Why is no one from their side here?" Guo Xuyang whispered.

"The bride will be sent off from her home tomorrow and come directly here," Pi Xiaoqian replied.
"Aren't we going to the hotel? It's at home?"
"It's a traditional Chinese wedding. The ceremony will be held at home before going to the restaurant for the meal."
"That's good too," Guo Xuyang said, looking around.
He then noticed a familiar face in the crowd: Xu Xiaoyu, with whom he had shared intimate moments in America.
She was staring blankly at him, her eyes holding an unreadable emotion.
"That girl is looking at you. Did you do something to her?"
Pi Xiaoqian nudged Guo Xuyang with his elbow.
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful someone overhears you," Guo Xuyang whispered.
"She's so far away, how could anyone hear us?" Pi Xiaoqian said nonchalantly.

"That's my sister, please watch your words," a young man beside them suddenly spoke up.
"Your sister?" Pi Xiaoqian looked at the young man. "What's your relation to Xu Dahai?"
"I'm his nephew. I just came to fill in today."
"Is that your biological sister?"
"Born of the same mother," the young man replied, quite forthrightly.
"I'm sorry, we were mistaken. We thought she was looking at my friend. Turns out she's looking at you." Pi Xiaoqian quickly apologized.
"No, she seemed to be looking at this elder brother too," the young man said.
"Xu Shuai, say less. You have to call both of them uncle."
Xu Dahai seemed to hear them talking and turned to the young man.
"Understood, Second Uncle," Xu Shuai replied after looking at Xu Dahai.

"Hey Yangzi, do you know Xiaoyu?" Xu Dahai asked in a low voice.
"Huh? How could I? This is the first time I've seen her today."
"Then why is she staring at you so intently?"
"Because I'm handsome, right?"
"You're talking nonsense. That's my third uncle's granddaughter. Don't mess with her.
My third uncle's family only has that one precious granddaughter; all the rest are grandsons.
The family dotes on her."
"I understand. Why would I mess with her?"
Guo Xuyang pretended to fix his hair and quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.
His luck was terrible.

Why did he have to provoke her of all people?
Judging by her clothes, she seemed to be pregnant.
If she really latched onto him, wouldn't he have to call Xu Dahai uncle when he got back?
This joke was too much.
He wished he could escape this trouble spot immediately.
After the rehearsal finally concluded, as Guo Xuyang turned to leave, Xu Xiaoyu approached him.
"Long time no see."
"Are you sure you have the right person?" Guo Xuyang glanced at the people around him, unwilling to acknowledge her at all.
"A true man, dare to do, dare to admit. Why can't you acknowledge me?"
"Xiaoyu, what's going on?" Xu Dahai stepped forward.

"Uncle, congratulations," Xu Xiaoyu said. "Is he your friend?"
"My good buddy, Guo Xuyang. How do you two know each other?"
"He took a pregnant woman on some mission over there."
"Yangzi, that's not right. You met her but are saying you don't know her?"
"I really don't know her. We barely communicated."
"Did you do something to Xiaoyu?" Xu Dahai asked with a half-smile.
He knew Guo Xuyang's habits; he rarely acted like this unless he had done something wrong.
"No, how could I?" Guo Xuyang quickly denied.
"Uncle, I have a boyfriend. We've been living together for a long time," Xu Xiaoyu said to Xu Dahai.
"Take care of yourself. You are the eldest daughter of Third Granduncle's family."

"I know, Uncle. I'd like to speak with Mr. Guo alone."
"No problem, you two talk," Xu Dahai said, walking away.
With the wedding tomorrow, quite a few people had come to the house today.
He needed to greet them; after all, they were all there for his matter.
"So, when did you get back?"
Guo Xuyang only spoke to Xu Xiaoyu after everyone had moved away.
"This isn't like you. Why are you so cautious? Where's that spirit you had when you bullied me?"
"It's not..."
"Not what? I'm pregnant, what should we do?"
"Mine?" Guo Xuyang pointed to his own nose.
"What do you think?"
"Didn't you just say you've been living with your boyfriend for a long time?"
"If I didn't say that, would you have been able to save face?" Xu Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at him.
"Is it really mine?"
"How about we go for a paternity test?"
"What do you want me to do?" Guo Xuyang was speechless.
"I want to keep it," Xu Xiaoyu said, looking at Guo Xuyang.
"You're not going to ask me to marry you, are you?"
"Is that not possible?"
"I have many women around me."

"Does that mean you'll ignore me?"
"That's not what I mean. If you agree, I can buy you a house in America."
"Your farm looks nice, I like it."
"You can move in. I can arrange for some bodyguards and maids to take care of your daily needs."
"Really?"
"Otherwise?"
"Where are you going tonight? Can I go with you?"
"I probably can't leave tonight. Your uncle is getting married tomorrow, so I'll likely have to stay with him all night."
"What about tomorrow? You'll have time tomorrow, right? You're not the type to abandon someone after a fling, are you?"
"How could I? I'll call you then?"
"Give me your phone number, I'll call you."
Xu Xiaoyu said, taking out a small phone.
"13..."
"It's connected. Save the number.
This is my phone number in China, and very few people know it."
"Alright then."
"I'll go ahead now, won't bother you any longer."
Guo Xuyang hadn't expected Xu Xiaoyu to be so charming.
