Chapter 894 Chi Qian and Lin Tan Meet

"If it were me, I would try to build a good relationship with her." Chi Yuan is a very free-spirited person who doesn't follow many rules. "The moment Jiang Ruan came back, I would act as her good brother. If a good brother is in trouble, how could his sister not help him?"

"I haven't seen you give the position of heir to the Chi family to Chi Qian either," Xie Yi retorted naturally.

Chi Yuan said calmly, "You talk as if I'm the one who has the final say."

Xie Yi: "If you die or are crippled, then you'll belong to her."

Chi Yuan: "?"

Chi Yuan stared at him: "Something's not right."

Xie Yi slightly raised his eyebrows.

Chi Yuan voiced the thought that had been nagging at him: "Do you like her?"

Xie Yi didn't even glance at him, clearly too lazy to bother with him.

"Your two families had previously discussed a marriage alliance, and both sides were willing to match Chi Qian with him," Qin Mo reminded them. "But both of them refused."

"Maybe this guy knew my sister wouldn't agree, so he refused to save face," Chi Yuan said casually. "Or maybe he loves my sister deeply and doesn't want her to be trapped by an arranged marriage."

Qin Mo didn't reply.

I don't think either of his statements is normal.

Chi Yuan was just saying it casually; he didn't really think that Xie Yi and his sister could have any romantic feelings for each other.

After all, the two of them practically grew up together.

If there are feelings involved, you might start dating during puberty.

But neither of them noticed that after Chi Yuan said those words, a fleeting, unnoticed ripple crossed Xie Yi's eyes, which disappeared in an instant.

In the time that followed.

The three of them chatted about other things.

It didn't end until 7 or 8 pm.

Before leaving, Chi Yuan asked Qin Mo, "Did you tell Lin Tan about the wedding?"

"I mentioned it briefly before, but I didn't go into details," Qin Mo said. "If you guys don't agree, I'll have to come up with another plan before I tell her, otherwise it will just disappoint her."

Chi Yuan smiled and said, "That's good."

Qin Mo hummed in agreement.

After the party ended.

Qin Mo then sent Lin Tan a message: 【Are you busy?】

Lin Tan: [Not busy.]

Qin Mo made a phone call.

Lin Tan answered immediately.

"Are you on set?" Qin Mo asked.

"No, I'm in the car." Lin Tan sat in the back seat. "Teacher Song Zhi invited me to dinner. It's about a ten-minute drive away."

Qin Mo: "I see."

Lin Tan: "Is there something you need?"

Qin Mo pursed his lips and told her, "Didn't I mention the wedding to you before?"

Lin Tan hummed in agreement.

"I still plan to hold it this year or next year," Qin Mo told her his idea. "The venue will be a small island that I bought before. I will strictly screen the guest list and will not invite the media, so it will not have any negative impact on your career."

"Okay," Lin Tan agreed readily.

Qin Mo: "Then I'll start preparing now. We'll find a date to hold it after you finish filming this movie, or you can set a time."

"We'll do it your way." Lin Tan wasn't too concerned about this, "but..."

Qin Mo asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Thinking about Huo Sinian's phone call that night, Lin Tan still felt worried and uneasy: "What if Huo Sinian causes trouble? He's the kind of person who holds grudges, I'm worried something might happen."

"I'll take care of everything," Qin Mo said. "You don't need to worry."

Considering Qin Mo's style of doing things, Lin Tan agreed: "Okay."

"Then when you have time, give me a list of the family and friends you want to invite." Qin Mo was quite thoughtful. "I'll have invitations made and send them over."

Lin Tan said "okay".

After the matter was settled, the two hung up the phone.

Lin Tan didn't need to invite many family and friends. Besides her two best friends and her younger sister Lin Ling, there were only Jiang Ruan's agent Xiao Fengyun and Song Qi.

As for Lady Jun and the others.

From both a relationship and interest perspective, it would be more appropriate for Qin Mo and his group to extend the invitation.

A moment later.

When Lin Tan arrived at the restaurant that Song Zhi had booked, the restaurant manager led her to a private room. When she opened the door, she saw that in addition to Song Zhi, Madam Jun and Chi Qian were also there.

I saw her come.

Madam Jun stood up first: "Tan'er is here, come and sit down quickly."

"Aunt Jun, Teacher Song Zhi." Lin Tan greeted them politely, but when her gaze fell on Chi Qian, she didn't know what to call her for a moment.

She knew Chi Qian.

She manages Xingyue Media, the number one company in the industry.

It boasts numerous top-tier and popular celebrities.

"This is Chi Qian." Madam Jun didn't want to embarrass her, and after speaking, she said to Chi Qian, "This is Lin Tan, whom I mentioned to you."

"Hello, Miss Chi." Lin Tan nodded and smiled.

"Just call me Chi Qian." Chi Qian smiled, giving off a very approachable vibe. "Come sit down and eat."

Lin Tan: "Okay."

A short while later.

Lin Tan sat down in the reserved seat.

To her left was Madam Jun, to her right was Song Zhi, and opposite her was Chi Qian.

At first, everyone chatted about trivial things, everyday life, and other mundane topics.

As they chatted...

The conversation then turned to Lin Tan.

Lady Jun was the first to ask, "Tan'er."

Lin Tan: "Hmm?"

Madam Jun hesitated for a moment, then asked, "I heard you and Qin Mo got your marriage certificate? Is that true?"

Lin Tan: "Really."

Lady Jun: "How come you didn't tell me about such an important matter?"

"I was thinking of inviting you when we get married," Lin Tan said slowly, her eyes gentle. "I didn't specifically mention it."

"Alright, would you mind if we attended as your family?" Madam Jun asked this question cautiously, as if afraid of being rejected.

Lin Tan was taken aback.

Seeing the tenderness in their eyes, Lin Tan knew they weren't joking.

A few emotions welled up in her eyes, and a sudden pang of sadness rose in her nose.

After a few seconds of pause.

She suppressed her emotions and said, "I would be very happy if you were willing."

Given her relationship with Lin Jiancheng and the others, she was destined not to invite them to the wedding.

She has almost repaid the debt of gratitude they owed her over the years with the money she has earned.

If we invite them, the wedding will be a complete mess, and they might even ask for exorbitant prices.

She didn't want the pure feelings between her and Qin Mo to be ruined.

“Then it’s settled.” Madam Jun’s eyes were filled with happiness. “From now on, we will be your family. If the Qin family treats you badly, just tell us.”

Lin Tan swallowed hard. "Okay, thank you."

She thought that was how her life would be.

But now I feel it could have been even better.

She will work hard for a better future and not let it be ruined.

"What is Yu Peiyun's attitude towards your marriage registration?" Madam Jun asked with concern.

“It’s great,” Lin Tan replied. “On the night we got our marriage certificate, she even gave me her family heirloom bracelet to support my career and our relationship.”

Lady Jun's tense heart relaxed slightly: "That's good."

Song Zhichao glanced at it.

She knew that she truly treated Lin Tan like a daughter.

The dinner started with Junyi and Song Zhi caring for Lin Tan, and later Lin Tan chatted with Chi Qian, sometimes about fashion, sometimes about career and plans.

After a meal.

The conversation went quite well among everyone.

After the group took a walk, Lin Tan and Song Zhi left together towards the film crew, while Jun Yi went home with Chi Qian.

On the way back.

Chi Qian saw Xie Yi's call.

She raised an eyebrow slightly, and answered after a few seconds of ringing: "Hello."

"I heard you went out to dinner with Lin Tan with my mom tonight?" Xie Yi asked without much emotion.

Chi Qian chuckled lightly: "You're quite well-informed."

Xie Yi: "How about that? Isn't it impressive?"

Chi Qian: "?"

Chi Qian: "What's not simple?"

Xie Yi: "Lin Tan".

Chi Qian thought for a moment.

Judging from that meal, Lin Tan isn't the typical innocent girl; she has good social skills and can maintain a facade while talking to people in her social circle.

From a certain perspective, it's not simple.

"Are you with my mom right now?" Xie Yi asked again.

"Hmm," Chi Qian replied softly.

"Could you persuade her to have less contact with Lin Tan later?" Xie Yi had always been wary of Lin Tan. "She trusts what you say, and she'll treat you to dinner if it goes well."
