"This is good, it'll save me trouble. I can have my team handle it," Li Minxi said from the side.
"Why do you take on every job?" Guo Xuyang muttered.
"I'm doing this for free. Take it or leave it."
"Yes, why wouldn't we take it if it's free? Someone has to do it. Xiao Xi is the best at this," Lu Liang chimed in quickly.
"I'll give you a big red envelope later."
"Forget the red envelope. Just give me thirty percent of the profit," Li Minxi said with a smile.
"My dear, can't you be a little less greedy, even for a robbery?"
"Agreed or not?"
"Agreed, agreed. But you have to put your heart into it."
"I say, we're not even married yet, and you're already worrying about Brother Liang's wedding. Isn't that a bit early?"
"Early for what? Do you think everyone is like you, a free spirit who just hands off responsibility?" Li Minxi shot him a look.
"My team members also need to eat."
"Are you milking Brother Liang dry?"
"You don't get rich without exploiting those you know," Li Minxi said proudly.
"Then you can't ask for a share from our side."
"What do you mean? You can milk Brother Liang, but not me?
Brother Liang gets one share, how many do you think you have?
Brother Liang's thirty percent profit is thirty million. I won't ask for more from you, how about one hundred million? One hundred million and I'll settle everything for you."
"You're too much! Isn't one hundred million a bit much? We're practically an old couple, be a little cheaper."
Guo Xuyang immediately cried out in distress and hurried to bargain.
"I have a professional team. All you need to do is show up. My team will handle all the food, accommodation, and travel.
The marriage certificate, wedding ceremony, and venue – my team will make it all beautiful."
"Even then, one hundred million is a bit much." Guo Xuyang was still not satisfied.
"Brother Liang's thirty percent would also be thirty million, right? And that's for one person.
How many people are on your side? Consider this a discounted price.
If you're not happy, you can pay the same as Brother Liang, thirty million per person. How about that?"
Li Minxi was ruthless when she wielded her knife.
"Fine. One hundred million it is. In that case, I'm actually getting a good deal."
"Of course. We're family, after all. I'll give you a special discount."
Guo Xuyang could only force a wry smile; he didn't dare to bargain further.
Thank goodness he had money, otherwise, he really couldn't afford to keep this wife.
Several issues were resolved over the meal.
The other women were also excited; at least, they would have marriage certificates to show for it in the future.
Guo Xuyang posted a photo of their dinner on his social media, along with a message: "I will be holding my wedding ceremony with Miss Li Minxi on March 12th. I invite all my friends to attend and celebrate. We have prepared drinks and food and look forward to the arrival of all relatives and friends."
"What did you post?" Li Minxi was the first to hear the notification and looked at it.
"Didn't you ask me to post on social media? What's wrong?"
"Why did you write my name? You could have just said a wedding ceremony was being held, why mention my name?"
"I'm making a public announcement. Telling everyone that you are my wife, the one I'm marrying."
"What about everyone else? Delete it quickly."
It had to be said that Guo Xuyang was a bit thoughtless, especially since he had so many women. This was clearly provoking hatred towards Li Minxi.
Hearing Li Minxi's words, Guo Xuyang also felt it was inappropriate, so he deleted the post and re-posted: "I will be holding my wedding ceremony at noon on March 12th. I invite all my friends to attend and celebrate. We have prepared drinks and food and look forward to the arrival of all relatives and friends."
"That's more like it. Are there any specific people you need to invite separately? If so, invite them in advance.
Do you have any other confidantes that we don't know about? You'd better give me a list in advance so I can prepare marriage certificates for you."
Li Minxi provoked Guo Xuyang with a jab.
"Let's focus on our wedding first. After that, we can talk about other things. Haven't Brother Liang and his partner confirmed their date yet?"
"Okay. Once Brother Liang sets the date and venue, I'll arrange for my team to start preparations. Old Li, can these photos be ready tomorrow?"
Li Minxi asked a long-haired man at the dining table.
"No problem, Chairman. All of them can be ready by tomorrow afternoon."
"Good. Once they're ready tomorrow afternoon, hang them directly in the villa.
Make three photo albums. I'll take one when I go to Kyoto the day after tomorrow.
On the wedding day, you will follow Yangzi from start to finish. We'll arrange three photographers and three videographers in Kyoto, and the same here besides you. I don't want any mistakes."
"Yes, Chairman. Mission guaranteed."
"After dinner, you can all get busy. If you need anything, contact Su Ran directly.
My wedding will be prioritized for the next few days. Other matters can be temporarily put on hold."
"Yes, Chairman."
"Has everyone finished eating? If so, let's all head back," Li Minxi said, looking around the table.
"We're done. Let's go," Lu Liang said, about to stand up.
"Everyone, please bear with us for any shortcomings in today's hospitality. We'll gather again another day if you haven't eaten well. Master Li, thank you for your hard work today.
Brother Liang, Brother Hui, let's go back and chat." Guo Xuyang also stood up.
"Mr. Guo, you're too kind. This is our job. It's our honor to serve you.
Thank you very much for your generous hospitality," Old Li said, also standing up.
Everyone stood up, exchanging pleasantries.
"Mr. Guo, are you still going upstairs to take a look?" Manager Liu asked.
"I'll take the guests out first before coming up. Has Xiao Xi seen it?"
"She has. She said you should take another look. If there are any unsuitable areas, we'll make adjustments."
"Alright. You escort the guests out with me, and we'll come up again later."
As they spoke, they went downstairs to see off photographer Old Li and his group, then returned upstairs to check each room, paying particular attention to the performance stage.
"Manager Liu, this stage doesn't need to be fancy, but it must be sturdy. It should at least be able to support the weight of a hundred people. Some relatives, friends, or colleagues might come up for photos with the stars, so don't let anything go wrong," Guo Xuyang instructed.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Guo. Director Li specifically hired people to build this; there will be no problem."
"Xiao Xi, please arrange for someone to reinforce it. We must guard against such things. I don't want a joyous occasion to turn into a disaster."
"Alright. I'll have them come and check it again tomorrow," Li Minxi said after walking onto the stage.
The group went around upstairs and downstairs, and by the time they finished and returned home, it was past nine o'clock.
