Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 680 - 597: Surnamed Lu

The wedding march began to play, Bai Shasha slowly walked towards Xu Er, her arm linked with Mr. Bai’s. The emcee led the ceremony as the couple stepped onto the stage, accompanied by their bridesmaids and groomsmen, who stood by jokingly teasing the bride and groom in sync with the emcee’s words. Everything proceeded smoothly.

When it came to the segment where the groom was asked to perform, Xu Er unexpectedly broke out into a dance.

It was truly eye-opening, yet Bai Shasha was clearly thrilled, laughing with her hand over her mouth, showing how much she loved it!

Long Wu cheered enthusiastically from the crowd, but Su Meng kept glaring at him until he finally quieted down!

Li Si and Leng Ning, sitting to the side, couldn’t stop laughing. One was onstage, the other in the audience—it was all too entertaining!

Their table was surrounded by some of the Bai Family’s relatives.

While watching the lively scene on stage, they conversed softly amongst themselves.

Leng Mochen wasn’t paying attention to what was happening onstage. After glancing at it briefly, he turned his focus to observing the guests in the room. Li Si noticed his actions curiously, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "What are you looking for? I’ve felt something was off with you since earlier! Are you still not going to tell me the truth?"

From the moment they entered the hotel, Leng Mochen had acted unusually. Bai Shasha and Xu Er’s wedding banquet was being held in the Sunshine Hall on the third floor.

He seemed to have a particular connection to this place. Along the way, he even touched the stairway handrails with a distinctive emotion.

Leng Mochen glanced over at Long Wu, who was humbly coaxing Su Meng nearby, then at Leng Ning, who was busy texting. He mimicked Li Si’s gesture and leaned closer to her ear to whisper, "The owner of this hotel is Lu!"

Lu? Li Si’s eyes widened in surprise. She quickly deduced the meaning of his cryptic remark.

So, the person named Lu must be...

Leng Mochen could tell she had understood by the questioning look she gave him. He nodded lightly, indicating their shared tacit understanding built over time.

Li Si squeezed his hand tightly under the table and asked, "How do you feel?"

Realizing her question wasn’t ideal given the noisy setting, she leaned back in to comfort him, saying, "Don’t think too much about it!"

How would he feel at this moment, facing his biological father from a previous life?

Leng Mochen gave her a reassuring glance and said, "I’m fine! Don’t worry!"

He didn’t harbor strong thoughts; he simply felt a sense of complexity.

After all, this place held some memories from his previous life. Back then, upon returning from abroad, his foremost goal had been to reclaim the management rights of this hotel.

Sadly, he’d been only one step away when he went to attend a banquet at Emperor and ended up tragically killed.

Lu Zhengming had calculated that he would inevitably attend.

After reincarnating as Leng Mochen, he’d conducted investigations into the Lu Family from North City.

He never expected that Xu Er and Bai Shasha’s wedding would be held at this hotel. Life truly is unpredictable!

Li Si recalled the elevator accident they had experienced—their souls had floated back to the Lu Family, overhearing some vile remarks from that disgusting mother-son duo. From their conversation, it seemed evident that the old Lu likely hadn’t been aware of what they’d done.

Still, going by how Leng Mochen had struggled alone abroad at such a young age, old Lu clearly wasn’t a qualified or competent father either.

In this lifetime, that Lu Zhenghang had died in a car accident at the age of 25, while Lu Zhengming was in prison. As a father, how should he be judged? And what about that stepmother? How could a son end up in prison while she still carried herself so arrogantly?

Neither spoke further. Both lowered their heads, lost in thought.

Long Wu looked up and noticed their dark expressions. He teased, "What’s up with you two? Who’s cooked you up? Why the long faces? Don’t tell me Xu Er’s antics got to you?"

He had long known that Xu Er would pull off something like this. At Bai Shasha’s side, he danced solo—but wait until they returned to Beijing; the guy had even more tricks up his sleeve.

Leng Mochen shot him a faint glance and said, "The one who’s upset should be you!"

Long Wu felt a pang of guilt. Honestly, he was a little affected. If only he’d thought of incorporating this idea into his own wedding—it would’ve been perfect!

But when the time came, all he could think about was how he was about to become a father, and his beloved woman would finally marry him. Nothing else seemed to matter. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Still, he refused to admit it. Clearing his throat, he turned to Li Si and said, "Sisi, aren’t you even a little envious? Cold Er’s dancing used to be impressive too! Wouldn’t it be moving if he did a performance for you?"

Li Si shook her head vigorously and said, "Not envious! Don’t want to see it either!"

If Leng Mochen ever danced for her someday, she wouldn’t be moved—she’d be downright terrified.

She’d doubt whether the original Leng Mochen’s soul had returned! After all, Lu Zhenghang had no talent for dancing; it was his Achilles’ heel.

Long Wu turned to Leng Ning next and said, "Xiao Ning! Among us here, you’re the only one who still has a chance. When you get married, make your boyfriend perform a dance! Wouldn’t it be amazing?"

Leng Ning smiled, her eyes curving into crescents. "Brother Wu! Don’t say that—I think it’d actually be pretty awesome!"

"See? Xiao Ning agrees!" Long Wu declared smugly. "Don’t be like your sister-in-law; she has no sense of romance!"

Li Si rolled her eyes and retorted, "Xu Er’s dance was indeed romantic! But Brother Wu, not every man has the guts to dance in front of so many people. Could you? If you dare, give us a performance right now! No, scratch that—how about performing for your beloved Meng Meng right here? Can you?"

Su Meng winked at Li Si and gave her a thumbs-up, then focused her gaze firmly on Long Wu.

The entire table, including those who had been chatting, paused to eagerly watch the show.

Long Wu felt embarrassed and chuckled awkwardly. "I certainly have the heart for it! But during occasions like this, it’d be inappropriate to steal the spotlight from the groom on his wedding day!"

He then looked at Su Meng with profound affection and promised, "Alright, Meng Meng, when we get home, I’ll dance for you privately!"

Li Si’s group was beside themselves with laughter at his reply.

Su Meng: "..." She regretted sitting at the same table as him!

On stage, Bai Shasha’s flushed cheeks and Xu Er’s wide grin made them look all the more intimate together. Beside them, the emcee announced, "Now, representatives from both families will come up to give a speech."

Xu Er’s father stepped up. His joy was apparent, as he gave an elaborate speech praising Bai Shasha, followed by a few remarks to the guests that were impressively eloquent.

Everyone knew Bai Family’s girl had secured a match with a wealthy family from Beijing, leading the crowd to respond with generous applause and laughter.

Next was Bai Shasha’s family. Mrs. Bai and Mr. Bai hesitated below the stage, each urging the other to go up. Mrs. Bai argued that Mr. Bai, as the head of the family, should take the lead. After all, Xu Er’s side had sent a man to speak!

But Mr. Bai was reluctant to step up. Normally, he was an easygoing person, but facing such an occasion, he was afraid—it wasn’t his strong suit, and he worried that any mistakes might embarrass Bai Shasha and cause her to blame him later.

Eventually, Mrs. Bai straightened her outfit, smoothed her hair, and confidently stepped onto the stage.

The emcee, apparently an acquaintance of hers, greeted her warmly and made a few lighthearted jokes.

Mrs. Bai, though initially a little nervous facing the crowd, soon loosened up as she spoke highly of Xu Er, whom she obviously admired deeply. Her words were well-prepared, rhythmic, and eloquent, earning waves of applause and cheers from the audience.

Just as Mrs. Bai finished, gracefully waving to the crowd and preparing to step down, a woman’s angry shout suddenly erupted from the banquet hall’s entrance...
