Chapter 1385 Nervous
Jiang Ling let out a long breath, and the heavy stone in her heart seemed to dissipate along with the breath. She could finally see Xu Xiaoxiao.
The anxiety and anticipation along the way are like the drizzle in spring, gentle but omnipresent. Now I finally have hope.
"Or...you can give Xiaoxiao a call."
There was a barely perceptible tremor in Jiang Ling's voice. She turned her head to look at Nan Weiwei beside her, her eyes filled with a complex mixture of expectation and uneasiness.
Nan Weiwei raised her lips gently when she heard that. She nodded, took out her cell phone from her exquisite handbag lightly, slid her fingertips lightly across the screen, and dialed the familiar number.
However, the word "off" on the phone screen was like a cold shower, instantly cooling Jiang Ling's expectations.
"Aunt, Xiaoxiao has turned off her phone. She must be on the plane. Don't worry, Xiaoxiao will definitely come to my engagement party."
There was unquestionable firmness in Nan Weiwei's words, and she tried to use this optimism to dispel the haze in Jiang Ling's heart.
However, Jiang Ling just nodded slightly, her face a little pale, and there was still some unspeakable worry between her brows.
Nan was so immersed in her own joy that she didn't notice the subtle change in her aunt's expression.

A convoy of various luxury cars was moving slowly forward on the wide road like a long winding dragon.
These vehicles are either luxurious and grand, or exquisite and compact, or solemn and elegant. Each one shines with a unique brilliance, which is dazzling.
When the convoy finally circled to the five-star hotel, time seemed to be shocked by the spectacular sight and stopped for a moment.
The sunlight shines on the golden exterior walls of the hotel, reflecting dazzling light, making the entire building look like a dazzling palace, exuding an unparalleled atmosphere of dignity.
The clock hand pointed exactly to eleven o'clock in the morning, and there was only one hour left until twelve o'clock on the auspicious day.
This hour is undoubtedly full of anticipation and tension for the newlyweds who are about to enter the marriage hall.
This hour is also crucial for everyone in the team. They need to make sure everything is ready to welcome this special moment.
The hotel is the Nan family's own hotel, which is comparable to the Fu Group's. The vast open space in front of the hotel is crowded with people and extremely noisy. Various sounds are intertwined to form a sea of noise.
People were dressed in gorgeous suits, the men were elegant and the ladies were graceful, their clothes were fragrant and their hair was beautiful, which complemented each other.
Celebrities from all walks of life gathered here. They were chatting and laughing, or greeting each other. The scene was grand and breathtaking. After all, the Nan family was not simple.
Nan Xi and Du Yunxi had already arrived early. They were dressed in gorgeous clothes and their behavior revealed extraordinary temperament. They became the focus of everyone's attention. They were very happy today.
Nan Yifeng’s biological father was also present at the scene.
The moment Nan Yifeng saw his father, his expression changed slightly involuntarily. It was a complex and indescribable emotion, and the past that was difficult to let go was surging in his heart.
But this emotional fluctuation was fleeting. He quickly adjusted his state and regained his usual calmness and composure. Today was his big day... He would not make himself uncomfortable or make Nan Weiwei unhappy because of a small thing.
The layout of the venue is magnificent, ingenious and breathtaking.
The flowers are all imported flowers transported by air. The arch formed by the flowers is like a majestic castle, standing high in the center of the venue, attracting people's attention.
Each flower seems to have been carefully carved, blooming just right, and the petals are so tender that they seem like they will fall off with the slightest touch.
These flowers are far more than just ordinary decorations; they are more like the purest and most beautiful gifts that nature has given to mankind.
The faint fragrance they emit is like a clear spring, refreshing and intoxicating, making people unable to extricate themselves.
The stairs paved with flowers are even more unique. Each step is carefully laid with the finest white roses, forming a magnificent picture.
The scene was both high-end and grand, yet warm and romantic, as if bringing people into a dreamlike world.
In this world, everything is so perfect and there is no flaw at all.
Every detail seemed to be tailor-made for this grand engagement banquet, just to witness the happy moment of this perfect couple and let their love be eternally frozen in this beautiful scene.
Nan Weiwei stood there, staring at the scene in front of her, feeling an indescribable tension and uneasiness in her heart.
She saw people dressed in gorgeous clothes, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, each of them exuding unique temperament and charm.
These guests were either chatting and laughing, or whispering, as if they were all closely connected to each other.
Nan Weiwei's eyes wandered among the crowd, trying to find a hint of familiarity among these unfamiliar faces, but to no avail.
Everyone is like an independent world, with their own stories and purposes, but she is like a lonely person lost in the vast sea of people, unable to find a harbor where she can rest in peace.
Her hands seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, tightly grasping Nan Yifeng's sleeves, as if that was the only thing she could rely on in this vast crowd.
Her voice trembled slightly, like a candle flame swaying in the wind, which made people feel pity.
She said softly, "Yi Feng... um, there are too many people... I'm a little scared. What if I can't handle it and something goes wrong? I... I... How about I go to the room and calm down? And come out for dinner?"
When she said this, her eyes were a little wandering, as if she didn't dare to look directly into Nan Yifeng's eyes, as if she was afraid to see a hint of disappointment or blame from him.
Nan Yifeng turned his head and looked at Nan Weiwei's slightly helpless eyes, and a feeling of heartache surged in his heart.
Nan Yifeng looked at Nan Weiwei's slightly nervous expression, and couldn't help feeling a bit curious and tender in his heart.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a light smile. That smile seemed to contain a hint of teasing, but more of it was a kind of reassuring gentleness.
He said softly, "Weiwei, what's wrong? Do you dislike occasions like this, or is it because today is our engagement day that makes you so uneasy?"
Nan nodded slightly.
Nan Yifeng smiled and said, "Actually, you have experienced similar situations before. Don't tell me you have forgotten them."
He paused for a moment, as if recalling something, and then continued, "Think about it, every time you performed on stage, the audience was much larger than the people here today. At that time, you were able to fully display your talents in front of so many people without any stage fright. So, you will definitely be able to do it today, don't worry too much."
Nan Weiwei was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then a helpless smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She shook her head gently, with a bit of shyness and determination in her eyes: "That's different, Yi Feng. When performing, I know what I should do and what I should say. That's my job and I'm used to it. But today... today is our engagement day, I... I'm afraid that I won't do well and it will have a bad influence on you."
At this point, Nan Weiwei's voice trembled slightly, and a hint of uneasiness flashed in her eyes.
She held Nan Yifeng's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that he would leave her at this moment: "You know what? Yifeng, I have always cared about you and our relationship. I don't want our engagement party to have any flaws because of my negligence."
Nan Yifeng looked at Nan Weiwei's sincere and affectionate eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He gently embraced Nan Weiwei in his arms, and said in a gentle but firm voice: "Weiwei, you don't have to worry. Today, you just need to be the most authentic yourself, and you are the most beautiful scenery. Our feelings will not change because of any flaws. And, with me by your side, everything will be fine."
In Nan Yifeng's arms, Nan Weiwei felt unprecedented security and warmth.
She nodded gently, with a firm light in her eyes: "Well, I believe you, Yi Feng. Today, I will be the best version of myself and add a beautiful memory to our engagement party."
He gently patted the back of Nan Weiwei's hand to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, Weiwei. You are my heroine today. With me here, nothing will happen. Besides, you are the best. Those guests are just here to witness our happiness. You just need to show your true self."
Nan Weiwei felt relieved when she heard this, but the anxiety in her eyes still did not completely disappear.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down: "I know, but I've never been in such a big situation before. I'm afraid I'll make a mistake and embarrass you."
Nan Yifeng smiled slightly, that smile was warm and firm: "You will never embarrass me, Weiwei. In my eyes, you are more dazzling than anyone else. Don't worry, I will always be by your side and accompany you to face it all together."
After saying that, he gently held Nan Weiwei's hand and led her through the crowd towards the stage that belonged to them.
At that moment, Nan Weiwei seemed to feel unprecedented courage and strength. She knew that as long as Nan Yifeng was by her side, she could face it bravely no matter how big the situation was.
