Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 428 - 303 "Li Gui Fire Brigade

The two couples toasted and distributed wedding sweets.

Vice Mayor Miao was very considerate, and accompanied by Yu Xiangqian and Zhang Junyan, he toasted table by table.

Although most of the guests at the wedding banquet were government employees, having a city leader who also holds the secretary position of the Port Authority toast them was a first-time honor, and everyone was pleasantly surprised.

The banquet hall had karaoke, and after having a few drinks and bites, Chairman Qian of the Port Authority labor union came to the center stage again, proposing that the two newlyweds and their parents take turns singing on stage.

Weddings, of course, should be lively and bustling.

This time starting from Liang Xiaojun and Han Xiangmeng, the young couple went on stage amidst warm applause, looked through the song list and picked the song "The Roar of the Waves Remains."

The brother-in-law and sister-in-law sang well, earning rounds of applause.

Han Yu was stumped, as singing was not his strong suit. Moreover, having been on a sea ship for years and slightly disconnected from the shore, then busy with work upon return, he hadn’t been able to learn popular songs like before.

Han Xiangning knew that the latest pop song her junior might know was probably "Asian Heroic Wind", which was popular across the country a few years ago.

But the Asian Games were old news, it wasn’t appropriate to sing now.

Seeing the Master’s wife looking over and clapping encouragingly, she looked again at the song list and asked, "When I grow up, will I become you?"

Han Yu, taken aback, took the microphone and said, "Okay, let’s sing this one."

Chairman Qian did not expect them to choose this song, quickly announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, respected leaders, dear friends, officiating the wedding of Comrade Han Yu and Comrade Han Xiangning today is Dean Shao from their alma mater. Many who have come to the wedding amid their busy schedules are their mentors.

Both of them have always regarded all of you as role models in their studies and work. To express gratitude to the alma mater and all the teachers for their long-term care, they now present ’When I grow up, will I become you?’ Let us welcome them with enthusiastic applause!"

Applause rose again.

Han Xiangning, who enforces maritime traffic regulations rigorously and is never soft when issuing tickets, was a bit nervous facing so many leaders and relatives singing.

She steadied her mind, listened to the melody played by the hotel waiter, raised the microphone and sang, "As a child, I thought you were beautiful, leading a flock of birds flying here and there. As a child, I thought you were impressive, a single word from you could shake the world."

Han Yu quickly followed: "When I grow up, I will become you, only then realizing that the classroom is where hope takes flight, and you are always guarding the nest. When I grow up, I will become you, only then knowing that the chalkboard writes truth, and wipes away utility..."

Some leaders, unaware of the context, saw flowers in a corner and ran to give them to Han Xiangning, then promptly went back to fetch Dean Shao from the Shipping Academy.

The two best students of the ’82 and ’83 cohorts, so deeply affectionate towards their school, not only asked him to officiate their wedding but now also sang to express gratitude.

Dean Shao was touched, quickly adjusted his suit, and got on stage cooperatively.

While Han Xiangning sang, she quickly presented the flowers to the dean of their alma mater.

Dean Shao felt it more honorable than receiving a commendation from the Transportation Department, holding the flowers and standing between Han Yu and Han Xiangning, humming along.

Reporter Wang was also invited tonight, and although he knew well that this song was actually meant for Xu Sanye, he quickly put down his chopsticks and hurried over to help take photos.

Yu Xiangqian, Zhang Junyan, Zhu Chunmiao, and others couldn’t help thinking of Xu Sanye and subconsciously looked at Sister Wei, who already had tears in her eyes but was still smiling.

After Han Yu and Han Xiangning finished, it was the turn of the six parents from the three families.

Speaking of singing, Master Han, Xiang Fan, and Comrade Old Liang could sing until tomorrow as they were all former military officers and used to sing a song before meals in the army.

Both of Han Zhengxian’s and Old Liang’s spouses were not good at singing and were very nervous.

To accommodate the in-laws, Master Han chose a very popular song from last year, which could be heard everywhere, "Wishing You Safety."

Wishing the children safety and all the leaders, relatives, and friends safety, earning rounds of applause.

Once started, it couldn’t be stopped.

Those who could sing and wanted to sing took turns on stage, even Vice Mayor Miao, under the strong invitation of Sister Zhu and others, came on stage for the equally popular song "The Roar of the Waves Remains."

The wedding banquet turned into a concert, and the atmosphere reached a climax.

Liang Xiaoyu originally loved to sing and really wanted to go on stage to showcase his singing, but the passenger ship from East Sea to Hanwu was about to dock, and he and Yang San would miss the boat if they didn’t head to the port now.

Regretfully, he had to say goodbye to the salted fish, Sister Xiang Ning, then bid farewell to the Master’s wife and leaders like Director Yu, Director Zhang, and under the lead of Director Yang, left the banquet hall with their luggage and rushed in the Port Authority car to the passenger terminal.

Xiao Yu’s parents really wanted to see their son off, but Xiao Yu didn’t let them.

Li Weiguo quietly inquired and found out that the special strike team of the Changhang Police Bureau was not only pickpocketing on passenger ships, but also cracking down on illegal crimes in the jurisdictions of various divisions of the Yangtze River Mainline, even secretly inspecting if any divisions harbored harmful elements.

The action of the small team was secret, and there should be no alerting of the dock police without special circumstances.

Li Weiguo advised, "Old Liang, Director Yang can escort him, it’s enough, we don’t have enough room in the car anyway."

They say a thousand-mile journey worries the mother; indeed, fathers worry just as much.

Comrade Old Liang, holding a glass of wine, said with a sad face, "He left just like that, didn’t even finish his meal, hardly spoke a few words."

"Young people, should focus on their work. If you really can’t let go, buy a boat ticket to Hanwu."

"I can’t leave."
