"Do bridesmaids have to be this bad?" asked Ah Qing confusedly, holding Lin Kui's arm.
Ah Qing thought about Momo, Lingren, Tang You, Yuyu, and Miaomiao, and felt that having them as bridesmaids shouldn't be bad at all!
It's often said that four girls in a dormitory have sixteen groups of friends, but Ah Qing definitely didn't feel this way.
"It's not about being bad, just that everyone has different thoughts."
"Just like in college when dating, my roommates always said I could marry better and constantly criticized Tianyun," Lin Kui casually reminisced, chuckling:
"They never liked Tianyun, so if I invited them to be my bridesmaids, who knows what mischief they would cause."
The complaints from Lin Kui's roommates can be summed up as: "Why help those in need? You should marry up!"
In reality, for Lin Kui, the concept of marrying up or down doesn't exist.
Her marriage is only about alliances or recruiting sons-in-law. Alliances between clans only happen after strong mutual benefits are established, never as an act of charity.
The so-called recruiting of a son-in-law is, frankly, to find someone capable of maintaining the family's wealth.
Lin Kui's father's business is tied to the Lin Clan, so there can't be alliances between relatives.
Marriage between clans involves a lot of implicit rules and cannot be simply explained by marrying up or down.
Sometimes, getting married is just to make one's social image appear mature and steady.
Lin Kui doesn't have any grudges against her roommates, but their views are just too romantic.
Beauty is only a stepping stone, not capital. If being pretty really solved everything, Foot Bath City wouldn't have so many beautiful top workers.
However.
Lin Kui didn't clearly explain these complex social rules to Ah Qing.
She simply narrated why she prefers to hire a bridesmaid team rather than involve unreliable sisters and girlfriends.
"Hmm..."
Ah Qing scratched her head, feeling somewhat sympathetic for Sister Kui, surrounded by so many troublemakers.
"Master Fuli! You're here!"
Ah Qing hugged Master Fuli and entered the villa. As soon as he arrived, Lin Kui's family and close relatives warmly welcomed him, all with courteous expressions.
Lin Kui's father's head even had a curling iron meant for styling stuck in it.
Clearly, he was also being styled inside, but when he heard that Master Fuli was visiting, he promptly came out to greet him.
"Everyone here is family, Master Fuli, Chairman Lin just arrived..."
Lin Kui's father, all polite, gestured upstairs and mentioned that Lin Ying had just arrived, inviting Master Fuli upstairs.
"Oh..." Ansheng, looking mature, patted Lin Kui's father's shoulder.
"Come! I'll show you the styling process." Lin Kui giggled and linked arms with Ah Qing, leading her upstairs.
They ascended from the sunken first-floor living room up to the second floor.
Ah Qing saw, placed in the living room on the second floor, stacks of dowries, dozens of boxes of cash, a box of gold and silver jewelry, and a box of what appeared to be property certificates.
Ah Qing looked on in astonishment at the dowries piled almost to the ceiling.
"Sister Kui, may I take pictures?" Ah Qing asked Lin Kui.
"No problem posting on Moments, but you can't live-stream in front of the netizens..." Lin Kui responded but reminded her not to broadcast during the wedding process.
Because of Master Fuli, Lin Kui's father actually spent two hundred million to show off.
Despite the family's legitimate wealth, live-streaming a wedding might end up in the newspapers or trending, leaving traces behind.
The Lin Clan doesn't need such fame and certainly doesn't want to appear publicly in such a manner.
"Master Fuli—"
In the tearoom of the second-floor study, Lin Ying didn't join in the youngsters' chaos, but instead sat here drinking tea. When she saw Master Fuli arriving, she smiled and greeted him.
"Oh..."
Ansheng jumped from the floor and lay in Lin Ying's arms, saying comfortably, "Early morning is best spent snuggling with Lin Ying; no need to wake up early."
With Lin Ying's fondness for Ansheng, she couldn't bear to let the little fox wake up before dawn.
"If you say that, Ah Qing will be upset," Lin Ying smiled gently, stroking the little fox's belly.
"Ah Qing can barely move now..." Ansheng pouted and complained.
Ah Qing, seeing Lin Kui's dowry, shot photos with twinkling eyes.
Even Fox Mother was deep in thought, looking at Fox Father, as if planning how to bring home some gold bars.
"There's no reason not to move; if Master Fuli wishes, hosting a grander wedding wouldn't be difficult..." Lin Ying said confidently.
"By the way..."
After reassuring the little fox, Lin Ying looked at him with excitement and said:
"I've now evolved into a Nine-tailed Fox, and there seem to be some changes in my physique. Master Fuli, would you help identify them tonight?"
After Lin Ying's spiritualization, the growth of tails doesn't directly equate to Master Fuli's abilities.
It's the convergence of external traits.
Due to the evolutionary influence of Master Fuli, having always liked to be close to her, Lin Ying seemed to have undergone some new physique changes through subtle influence.
However, this mutation was discovered accidentally during Lin Ying's spiritualization in recent days and hasn't been studied yet.
"You're a Nine-tailed Fox too?"
Ansheng heard and looked at Lin Ying with surprise.
"Too?" Lin Ying's expression froze with surprise, gazing at the word "too" from Master Fuli.
How could it be "too"?
"Things are complicated; currently lying in the Security Bureau undergoing a physical check, might come for the banquet shortly," Ansheng waved nonchalantly and joyfully circled around Lin Ying's upper body.
Little Angel is a wild Nine-tailed Fox, incomparable to the family's Lin Ying.
Lin Ying is the first Nine-tailed Fox under their domain.
"This can be wild?" asked Lin Bingyun, who was responsible for brewing tea, full of surprise.
A wild Nine-tailed Fox Spiritualizer...
That's exceedingly wild, isn't it?
"Sister Lin, you're all here?"
As Lin Ying was petting the fox, Ah Qing, having gone to see Lin Kui's styling process earlier, knocked and entered the room, holding Fox Father and Fox Mother, with each of them holding a gold bar given as a greeting gift by Lin Kui's father.
"Ah Qing's here..."
Seeing Ah Qing, Lin Ying waved to her, indicating for Ah Qing to sit by her side and place Huhu in her arms.
"Hehe..."
Ah Qing hugged Lin Ying's arm, smiling, "The pick-up team seems to have set off already. Sister Kui asked me to invite Sister Lin Ying and Fox Grandmaster to come over."
Master Fuli, honored as the Grandmaster, when Chen Tianyun comes to pick up the bride later, besides serving tea to Lin Kui's parents, Master Fuli's cup and Lin Ying's senior tea cup are indispensable.
