Li Yanyan and Zhu Fengrui arrived at the villa an hour after receiving Sun Lixia's ecstatic phone call about the engagement. They burst through the doors, faces alight with excitement at the long-awaited news.
"Where is the happy couple?" Li Yanyan exclaimed. She rushed over to pull Zhang Mei and Li Chen into rib-cracking hugs when she spotted them, tears of joy already glimmering in her eyes.
Zhu Fengrui heartily clapped his cousin on the back. "Finally someone gets married, a joyous occasion after everything our family is facing."
Li Chen rolled his eyes in mock exasperation, but couldn't keep a wide smile from spreading across his face at his family's reaction. Within minutes, Li Yanyan had her tablet out, immediately video calling the best caterers and florists in the city to start wedding preparations. Sun Lixia was on the phone with venue managers.
