Chapter 286 Charity Gambling
"You two... got married?"

When the two marriage certificates were placed in front of Huang Tian, ​​he felt a mixture of joy and a little disappointment.

On the one hand, he was happy that Huang Lei had found a good husband; on the other hand, from today onwards, his daughter would be someone else's wife.

It feels like just yesterday that my daughter was so cute as a child, and suddenly, all the children have grown up and gotten married!
"I'll go get the wine. You have a couple of drinks with me. I'll call Ah Hui and tell her."

Huang Tian laughed a few times, walked towards the wine cabinet, and started making phone calls to invite his close friends to have a meal together.

On the sofa, Li Jiayuan held his new wife, leaned close to her ear, and deliberately said mischievously:

"Honey, are you nervous about going back to your parents' house?"

Huang Lei's heart trembled upon hearing the word "wife," her beautiful eyes filled with tender affection, and she lightly patted Li Jiayuan's chest in annoyance.

Shyness kept it silent.

Li Jiayuan chuckled, and soon his mother-in-law arrived.

Upon arriving, he pulled his daughter aside to whisper to her. Judging from their expressions, they seemed to be confronting her.

They were probably questioning why they hadn't told their families about the marriage, such a big thing, and why they hadn't discussed it with their families before even going to the notary office to get it notarized.

Not only Shao Jiahui, but Huang Tian also had a lot of opinions about this. After all, it was his daughter's wedding, such a big event that only happens once in a lifetime.

They had no involvement whatsoever; the marriage was done first and they were informed later. They only found out after the two had become a legal couple.

It would be a lie to say they didn't have some minor complaints, but they couldn't say these things in front of their son-in-law, Li Jiayuan, so they could only tell their daughter.

Huang Lei was extremely annoyed by what she was being said and also felt a little regretful. She should have given prior notice, otherwise things wouldn't have turned out this way.

"Leilei, getting married is such a big deal, you should discuss it with Mommy."

"Mom, I'm an adult now. I know what to do in this kind of situation."

Seeing that her daughter seemed annoyed by the questions, Shao Jiahui wisely shut up. Since they had already done it, why should they be asked to divorce and remarry to give them a sense of participation?

"When do you plan to hold the wedding? You're already married, so you should hold the wedding as soon as possible."

"wedding?"

Huang Lei glanced at Li Jiayuan, who was making a phone call not far away, and then thought of Ruan Mei at home. She suddenly felt a bit resistant to the wedding.

Admittedly, a grand wedding is every girl's dream, but Huang Lei doesn't actually want her life to be under too much scrutiny. Her husband is one of the leading businessmen in Hong Kong.

If you're going to have a wedding, you'll definitely have to deal with the paparazzi on Hong Kong Island, and then the whole world will know about it.

She wasn't afraid, but she was worried that Ruan Mei might have something on her mind.

After all, Ruan Mei's identity is not something that can be done openly and honestly. Huang Lei is genuinely thinking about her friend and taking care of Ruan Mei's feelings.

"There's no rush for the wedding. A-Yuan's career is still on the rise, so let's focus on his career first and talk about it in a few years."

Hearing that her daughter was so indifferent to the wedding, Shao Jiahui was baffled. How could someone get married without being in a hurry to hold a wedding? This is unacceptable.

"What do you mean, 'in a few years'? What nonsense are you spouting? Do you expect us to wait until you have kids before having a wedding?"

"It's not impossible."

Huang Lei casually picked up an orange and peeled it, seemingly in a good mood.

Shao Jiahui was genuinely angered by him.

Just then, Huang Tian arrived.

"What are you talking about."

Shao Jiahui immediately had someone to confide in.

“Leilei said that we shouldn’t have the wedding for now. How can you say that? It’s a once-in-a-lifetime event.”

"No wedding?"

Huang Tian cast a surprised glance at Huang Lei.

"It's not that we won't have it, I mean we won't have it now. A-Yuan is so busy with work, how can he have that much time? Besides, marriage is a matter between the two of us. We just need to live our own lives well. I don't think it's important whether we have a wedding or not."

"you you."

Shao Jiahui was truly angered by her daughter's outrageous remarks.

Huang Tian was seriously considering the matter. Actually, he didn't have any particular thoughts. His daughter was right; he had experienced a failed marriage.

Therefore, I understand even more clearly that marriage is a matter between two people. As long as the two people are happy, it doesn't matter whether there are any other formalities or not.

He didn't have much objection to the decision; he let his daughter do whatever she liked.

"It's okay to postpone the wedding, but we can't not have it at all. A-Yuan is quite busy with work right now, so let's postpone it for now and talk about it later. I've invited some friends to have a simple meal together today, and you two can't miss it."

"Look how understanding Dad is, he'll reward you with an orange."

Huang Tian was overjoyed when Huang Lei called him "Dad." He smiled and reached out, receiving an unpeeled orange.

As for the orange, which had been peeled and had even the white pith carefully removed, Huang Lei had already stuffed it into Li Jiayuan's mouth.

Huang Tian: "."

He now understands why there's a saying: "A married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl."

No, it seems that in Huang Lei's heart, her status as her father has never been higher than that of Li Jiayuan.

Huang Tian couldn't help but think back to more than a year ago, when Huang Lei first asked him out to dinner, and she brought Li Jiayuan with her that day.

That was the first time he saw Huang Lei beg him for someone, and that person was a boy.

He had sensed something was wrong back then, but the two of them wouldn't admit it at the time, which he found amusing. In the blink of an eye, they were both married, and now the only thing that could worry him was his youngest daughter.

At this time, Huang Yin, who had become a servant of the Jiayuan Group, was following Long Wu around, doing her best for the company.

As evening fell, Li Jiayuan called his brothers to dinner at the hotel Huang Tian had booked, and briefly announced that he and Huang Lei had been officially licensed to work.

JOJO and the other girls were all surrounding Huang Lei, talking about something, and Huang Lei's face was all red.

Ruan Mei also arrived, staying obediently by Huang Lei's side, inseparable.

After dinner, the three of them returned home, and it was almost midnight.

"Leilei, let's go take a shower."

Reeking of alcohol, Li Jiayuan carried Huang Lei inside and placed her on the sofa before going to take a shower.

Ruan Mei was taking care of Huang Lei, who was completely drunk. She cooked a bowl of ginger soup, held Huang Lei and made her drink it, and then helped her to the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower, Li Jiayuan sat on the sofa for a full hour before the two people came out.

If he hadn't been able to hear the two people talking inside, he would have thought something had happened to them.

After taking a shower, Huang Lei was still dizzy, but she had sobered up, and Li Jiayuan helped her.

"I'm leaving now, going back to my room to sleep."

"Xiaomei, you should go to bed early too."

"Oh"

After the two entered the room, Ruan Mei stood in the living room, holding up her two breasts with her hands, her face flushed.

"Will it really get bigger? Leilei isn't lying to me, is she?"

"Brother Yuan, it's only a two-day trip, you don't need to bring so many batteries, right? And the ship should have enough."

Victoria harbour

A convoy of imposing black cars. Lin Liangshui looked at the bodyguard carrying a bag of mobile phone batteries and couldn't laugh at all.

Li Jiayuan pulled down his sunglasses, his disdainful gaze seeming to say, "What do you know, you single dog?"

Do you have a wife?

Lin Liangshui: "."

"I don't"

"That's it. You wouldn't understand if you didn't have a wife. Your wife at home is too clingy and always wants to call."

"Should I not have asked?" Lin Liangshui felt a wave of helplessness.

Actually, Li Jiayuan didn't bring these batteries himself; Huang Lei asked him to bring them. She didn't know where she heard that the Jiang family would also be going, so Huang Lei prepared so many batteries for him.

He was prepared to call and check up on things at any time, but of course he couldn't tell his subordinates that, as it would be embarrassing.

To avoid being accused of being afraid of his wife.

Just kidding, this is about respect between husband and wife. Jimmy is the one who's afraid of his wife, while Li Jiayuan is the one who loves her.

This charity betting event will be attended by virtually all the prominent and wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong.

Moreover, many wealthy businessmen from Taiwan will also attend in person, making it a great opportunity to build connections.

Li Jiayuan went there simply to broaden his horizons; as for gambling, he'd just play around.

Li Jiayuan saw many familiar faces boarding the ship one after another.

Qiu Degen, Li Jun's family, and that eldest son of the Zheng family and that old guy Zheng Tong.

It was almost time, so Li Jiayuan boarded the ship.

This time, he only brought Xiao Zhuang with him. Xiao Zhuang was the least experienced, but he used to be a professional assassin with outstanding skills. Even as a bodyguard, he was excellent.

As for Zhang Bao and Lai Fu and their group, they would travel in four boats to accompany them and follow behind the gambling ship in case of any emergency.

When traveling, it's important to prioritize safety.

Such large-scale public charity gambling is generally not allowed, even with prior application, because it is feared that some people might use it for money laundering. Therefore, they need to sail their ships to international waters.

Once we reach international waters, we can officially begin to enjoy ourselves.

After boarding the ship, Li Jiayuan was led to his room by a waiter. Although the gambling ship was very large, it was not easy to accommodate so many people.

Therefore, there are usually two beds in the room for rest.

After boarding the ship, Li Jiayuan fell asleep immediately. He had no interest in attending those people's parties. By the time Xiao Zhuang woke him up, it was already dark outside the gambling ship, and the charity gambling game officially began.

"Brother Yuan, Boss Qiu and Boss Lin are waiting for you outside."

"understood."

Li Jiayuan followed Lin Xin and Qiu Degen to the reception. The organizer was giving a speech, and Li Jiayuan glanced at the people on the second-floor railing opposite.

There were many familiar faces, but also many unfamiliar ones; I'd never seen them before, and they didn't seem to be from Hong Kong Island.

"Look, those people over there are all from Taiwan."

Qiu Degen pointed to Li Jiayuan, and the group opposite nodded to Qiu Degen. At this moment, Li Jiayuan turned his head away, looking annoyed.

"That woman really did come!"
