After a secret marriage, I became the biological mother of a rich and cute baby

In the large lawn garden behind the hotel, the wedding scene was decorated as dreamy and romantic as a fairy tale world.

Shi Ye originally wanted to hold the wedding in a church, but Gu Jinlan said that she did not believe in gods or fate, and her faith was in herself.

So Shi Ye arranged the wedding in the large garden of the hotel owned by the Shi family.

He remembered that when Gu Jinlan attended the lawn wedding of Yun Luoxi and Zhao Jingchuan, there was longing and yearning in her eyes.

The hotel’s garden was planned and created by an international gardening master and is an iconic check-in attraction in Haicheng.

After being decorated, it looks like a paradise on earth.

The guests present had begun to get restless as the bride and groom had not shown up.

Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "The bride is finally here!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw Gu Jinlan walking slowly towards them like a princess, surrounded by the Zhao family.

"Why is there only the bride? Where is the groom?"

"Look! The bride is from the Zhao family in the imperial capital. What's their relationship?"

"..."

When they saw the bride appear, everyone calmed down a little, but the groom was still nowhere to be seen. The guests began to speculate and talk about it.

Some unpleasant words reached Gu Jinlan's ears, but she remained calm and continued walking forward.

Qingli came over pushing Si Mo who was sitting in a wheelchair, and Matt followed beside them.

As they got closer, Matt asked quickly, "Lanlan, what's going on? We can't contact Master Shi."

"Wait a minute." Gu Jinlan said.

Matt was stunned for a moment, Si Mo also said the same thing to him.

They stayed in the hotel. As best men today, they originally planned to wait for Shi Ye's notification in the hotel, and then set off to Shi's house and go to Zhao's house to pick up the bride with the wedding party.

But they didn't receive Shi Ye's call for a long time.

When Matt called, the line was either busy or no one answered.

Later, Si Mo stopped him from making further calls and told him to wait, and also told him not to ask too many questions and not to interfere.

Matt was confused and wanted to ask, but Si Mo spoke first.

"Lan, why did you come here by yourself?"

The corners of Gu Jinlan's lips curled up in an arc that seemed like a smile, "What era is this now? It's not necessary to follow the process of the groom picking up the bride."

After saying that, Gu Jinlan continued to walk forward and stood on the flower stand in the middle of the garden, holding the microphone with her slender fingers.

The guests who were talking among themselves suddenly became quiet.

Gu Jinlan's calm eyes swept across the faces with different expressions in the audience, and he spoke slowly:

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Thank you all for coming to my wedding with Shi Ye. The wedding will be held as usual today, but it will be slightly postponed."

In the audience, Shi Ye's fifth cousin Fan Wen asked loudly, "What do you mean by postpone it? Is there a specific time? Everyone's time is precious, but we don't have time to play around with you two. If the wedding is to be cancelled, tell us earlier so we can leave earlier."

Someone nearby immediately echoed, "That's right! They didn't even tell us a specific time, and left us waiting here. What's the point? We're all hungry."

"Yeah, time is money! We can't afford to waste it!"

Zhao Jingchuan was about to argue with her with a dark face, but was stopped by Zhao Jinchen, "Jingchuan, don't be impulsive, Lanlan will handle it."

Zhao Jinchen stood there calmly and steadily.

As the eldest brother, he would naturally not let his younger sister get hurt, but there were some things that might backfire if they stepped in.

He believed that Lan Lan would handle such a small matter.

On the flower stand, Gu Jinlan's cold gaze fell on Fan Wen.

Fan Wen is the elder sister of Xia Nian’s scumbag ex-husband, and no one in the Fan family is a good person.

Fan Wen always looked down on her, thinking that as a kindergarten teacher, she was not worthy of becoming the future mistress of the Shi family.

She and Shi Ye did not invite Fan Wen to witness their wedding.

The guests of the Shi family present were all arranged by Grandma Shi.

Grandma Shi said that after all, they were a family, and if no one from the Shi family was present at the wedding and rumors spread, it would affect the share price of the Shiguang Group.

Gu Jinlan looked at Fan Wen and sneered: "If you feel that you have wasted time, you can leave now. The door of the hotel is always open. Shi Ye and I don't care about people who don't sincerely wish us well to witness our wedding."

Hearing this, Fan Wen was stunned and suddenly felt caught in a dilemma.

Even though Gu Jinlan said so, she still stayed here because she couldn't lose face.

But if she left now, it would be tantamount to openly opposing the person in charge of the Time Group. Not only would it make her grandmother angry, but Shi Ye would also have an excuse to exclude her and her husband in the future.

After weighing her thoughts carefully, Fan Wen sat there shamelessly without moving.

The few people who had just agreed with her did not leave either.

If I leave now, and the wedding goes on smoothly later, I will really offend Shi Ye.

Gu Jinlan added: "Those who wish to stay, please have your meal first. I wish you all a pleasant meal."

The original plan was to have dinner after the ceremony, but it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was really inappropriate to let the guests wait on an empty stomach.

Gu Jinlan walked off the stage and whispered to Jiang Kun, "Notify the hotel kitchen immediately and let everyone eat first. Also, make sure to refill the snacks, desserts and drinks at the buffet."

Jiang Kun nodded. "The buffet has been refilled, and we have eaten up several rounds. Madam, don't be angry. It's already past lunchtime, and everyone is waiting with empty stomachs. It's inevitable that they will be a little upset."

"I'm not angry, you go and arrange it." Gu Jinlan said.

Some insignificant people won't affect her mood.

She didn't have the energy to be angry now.

Jiang Kun turned around to arrange the meal, and someone from the Zhao family came up.

"Lanlan, are we just going to wait like this?" Zhao Zihua looked at Gu Jinlan distressedly, "What if..."

"It doesn't matter what happens." Gu Jinlan interrupted.

Knowing that the Zhao family members felt sorry for her, she tried to put on a smile, not wanting to make everyone worry, "Let's eat first, I'm hungry."

Gu Jinlan ate as if nothing had happened, and it seemed that her appetite was not affected at all.

However, all her relatives and friends who cared about her at the table had no appetite.

Gu Jinlan raised her head and looked at them, "Why don't you eat?"

"Eat!" Matt nodded quickly, "Eat now!"

The others also picked up their knives and forks, thinking that at this time they had to pretend that nothing had happened to make Gu Jinlan feel better.

Halfway through lunch, Zhao Jingchuan finally couldn't help it and said, "Lanlan, it's not a good idea for us to just wait like this. I'll go to Shi's house to look for Aye myself."

"No one is allowed to go." Gu Jinlan didn't even raise her head and continued to cut the steak on the plate. She said in a firm tone, "No one is allowed to go."

Zhao Jingchuan asked anxiously, "Why? We have to find out what's going on, right? Are we just going to wait here in confusion?"
