Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1126: In Dire Need

Upon sighting the wedding procession, relatives and friends of the He family felt deep envy for He Jiewen, while her parents brimmed with joy for their daughter yet lingered in worry.

A dependable man, Sun Zhenjun fretted over possible concerns from his in-laws, so he notified his family ahead of time.

Before setting off, Han Chunxue took care to remind the bride-retrieval team to greet the He parents with warmth.

Sun Zhenjun's eldest uncle's oldest daughter and her husband joined him to fetch the bride. They chatted amiably with the He parents upon meeting, greatly easing their anxieties.

Harmony flowed between the two families, and everything progressed seamlessly as the propitious moment struck.

He Jiewen’s dowry was borne out by those seeing off the bride.

Sun Zhenjun hoisted the fresh bride He Jiewen into the car, sparking cheers and applause from the crowd.

Not distant from the Sun household stood their chosen hotel, and firecrackers crackled at the Suns' the instant the convoy hit the junction.

Beaming widely, Sun Baowei and Han Chunxue stepped forward: "In-laws, hello!"

Noticing their in-laws emerge to welcome them, the He parents swiftly presented them to relatives alighting from the vehicles: "These are Jiewen’s parents-in-law."

After exchanging further courtesies, Han Chunxue promptly directed her sister-in-law Su Aihong to usher everyone into the yard to get seated.

They had barely wrapped up when the bride alighted from the car.

Neighbors prodded Sun Zhenjun to scoop up his new wife for the house entry, leaving He Jiewen faintly bashful, but he nimbly lifted her and, surprising all, marched straight into the courtyard.

Moments later, when others snapped to, an excited procession trailed behind them.

Xinyan watched the scene avidly from nearby, thinking: Cousin truly spoils his wife—to shield her from rough crowds, he hurried her inside.

Suddenly, He Jinxuan breathed into her ear: "When we get married, I’ll also take good care of you."

Sweetness surged in Xinyan’s heart, and envisioning it flushed her cheeks: "Who wants to marry you?"

Even as she spoke those words, her lips quirked upward.

Noting her look, He Jinxuan grinned and stealthily grasped her hand: "If you don’t marry me, who else would you want to marry, hmm?"

Xinyan parted her lips to retort when cousin Sun Zhenling's waving call rang out: "Cousin, Uncle and Second Aunt are looking for you."

Xinyan swiftly pulled her hand free from He Jinxuan’s and gave a playful pout.

That charming gesture coaxed a soft laugh from He Jinxuan.

Xinyan dashed back to the courtyard, where Han Jingchen stood beside a sharply dressed man. She recognized him at once as Director Hu of the Beijing Ministry of Commerce.

Correction—he’s advanced; now Vice Minister of the Commerce Department.

Xinyan instantly divined his errand and smiled warmly: "Minister Hu, long time no see."

The man grinned: "Deputy, Deputy."

With a smile, Xinyan offered: "Congratulations, though belated, it’s heartfelt."

Vice Minister Hu chuckled heartily: "Thank you, thank you. My visit today is truly urgent."

Xinyan cut straight to it: "What happened that you had to come personally to find me?"

A trace of urgency colored Vice Minister Hu: "Let’s talk as we walk, there’s really no time."

Xinyan furrowed her brow: "Where are we going?"

Vice Minister Hu replied crisply: "The airport."

Then, nodding to Han Jingchen: "I apologize, but we urgently need Han Xinyan’s assistance, and we must leave now."

Han Jingchen comprehended fully and eyed his daughter: "Go ahead, I’ll explain to your aunt, uncle, and cousins."

Xinyan nodded before trailing Vice Minister Hu away.
