Lin Yuan became the best man?

After the call ended, Lin Yuan was still in a daze.

He was inexplicably invited to a wedding, not only asking him to go, but also telling him to bring more people.

How rich was this person? How much face did he want? He wished more people would come, right?

But the problem was, if he was really that rich, why hadn't he bought a house even though he was getting married?

Something’s not right!

Very not right!

But the Client said the feast was free, so there was no reason to refuse, right?

No matter what his purpose was, a big meal was the priority.

Just then, the noodle shop owner brought over two bowls of noodles.

The Photographer picked up his chopsticks, ready to eat.

But Lin Yuan suddenly stopped him: “Don’t eat!”

“Huh?” The Photographer still maintained his posture of preparing to slurp noodles, looking over with a blank expression: “What’s wrong? Are the noodles poisoned?”

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, asking teasingly: “Do you want to eat a big meal?”

The Photographer nodded without hesitation: “Of course I do, but we’ve already ordered noodles, haven’t we?”

“Let’s go, don’t eat these. Brother will take you to a big meal.”

Hearing the words “big meal,” the Photographer immediately dropped his chopsticks and excitedly asked: “Where are we eating?”

“You’ll know in a bit.”

After Lin Yuan paid for the noodles, he took the Photographer and hailed a taxi to West Sea Hotel.

Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the location.

Standing before them was a magnificent building, looking about 20 stories high.

In front of the building was a plaza, with cars parked on both sides.

At the corner of the plaza near the road, a huge billboard stood, with “West Sea Hotel” written on it.

After getting out of the car, Lin Yuan walked directly towards the main entrance.

At this moment, the hotel entrance was already adorned with flowers and a red carpet.

On both sides of the red carpet, wedding photos of the groom and bride were displayed.

The LED sign above their heads also flashed continuously.

“Congratulations to Groom Qin Fen and Bride Miao Xue on their happy marriage.”

Seeing this scene, the Photographer felt a little flustered, asking uncertainly: “Brother, you said we were eating a big meal, you’re not saying we’re here to crash a wedding banquet, are you?”

Lin Yuan smiled faintly: “Stop talking nonsense, just follow me.”

“Oh, oh~~”

The two walked through the lobby and took the elevator to the wedding hall on the third floor.

As soon as they exited the elevator, they saw the wedding hall filled with banquet tables. A preliminary estimate suggested no fewer than 200 tables.

Such a scale made Lin Yuan couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement. No wonder he was told to bring more people.

So many tables could accommodate one to two thousand people dining at the same time.

At the very front of the hall, there was a stage, with a T-shaped aisle extending from the middle.

Both sides of the aisle were filled with bouquets of flowers, looking like a floral corridor, extending all the way to the main entrance.

At the end of the aisle, there was also a huge floral arch, which must be the entrance for the bride.

Just as Lin Yuan was looking around, his phone suddenly rang.

He took it out and saw it was the Client calling.

After answering, an anxious voice came from the other end: “Hello, buddy, have you arrived?”

Lin Yuan was a bit confused by this overly familiar groom, and smiled, nodding: “I’m here.”

“Oh, oh, I see you. Wait a moment, I’ll be right over.”

After the call ended, Lin Yuan immediately saw a handsome Xiao Hu in a suit, wearing a groom’s boutonnière on his chest, running over from the direction of the main entrance.

He greeted them very warmly and proactively: “Buddy, welcome, welcome!”

Lin Yuan looked at the name on the Client’s boutonnière and immediately realized he was indeed the groom.

He smiled and replied: “Congratulations! You’re too polite.”

Qin Fen waved his hand, replying indifferently: “What’s this… By the way, can you do me a small favor?”

Sure enough!

Hearing this, Lin Yuan’s heart skipped a beat, guessing that he wouldn’t call him to eat for no reason.

To avoid digging himself into a hole, he could only pretend to be unwilling and nodded: “Tell me, I’ll listen.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Fen’s face showed embarrassment, and he smiled awkwardly: “Actually… it’s not a difficult thing. It’s just to be a Groomsman, change into a suit, and go through the motions. What do you think?”

“Ah?” Lin Yuan was completely bewildered.

He had thought of several possibilities.

But he never expected to be asked to be a Groomsman.

In his impression, anyone who could be a Groomsman must be a very close friend, right?

But he was asking a real estate agent to be one?

He didn’t even know Lin Yuan’s name.

This was too much of a joke, wasn’t it?

Qin Fen looked at Lin Yuan’s expression and knew that his request was a bit abrupt, so he quickly explained: “Just change into a suit and go through the motions. You don’t need to do anything, and you don’t need to spend a single penny.”

“And after the wedding, I’ll give you a red packet, and then you can take me to see houses, how about that?”

Listening to the Client’s string of promises, Lin Yuan’s expression turned strange, and he asked uncertainly: “Can you tell me why you’re looking for me?”

“Uh…” Qin Fen’s face stiffened, and he replied hesitantly: “The Groomsman I had arranged had an accident and couldn’t come, and I can’t find a suitable replacement on such short notice.”

“I figured you’re about my age, and I’ll be buying a house from you after this, so you should be willing to help, right?”

Lin Yuan looked at Qin Fen, frowned, and fell into thought.

A moment later, he asked with a serious expression: “Are you sure you’re not lying to me?”

Qin Fen’s face immediately lit up, and he quickly nodded: “Brother, I’m getting married! This is such a big deal, how could I lie to you? What do you think?”

“That’s true~~” Lin Yuan nodded in agreement: “Alright then, for your big day, I’ll help out, but let’s be clear, I’m just going through the motions.”

“Absolutely!!”

“Come, come, I’ll take you to the backstage dressing room to change.”

The netizens in the live stream were all stunned at this moment. They came to a banquet for no reason and inexplicably became Groomsmen. This wasn’t a wedding; it was too hasty, wasn’t it?

— [Why do I feel like he’s not the one getting married, but looking at his boutonnière, he is indeed the groom. But the problem is, this is too outrageous. Randomly pulling someone to be a Groomsman for such a big event as a marriage, I completely can’t understand it!]

— [Didn’t he say that he was stood up at the last minute? He probably had no choice but to pull Lin Yuan in to make up the numbers, because there’s a vested interest, which makes him more trustworthy.]

— [Do you even believe that yourself? I’d rather have one less Groomsman than casually pull in some unclear person to be a Groomsman. I bet this groom has a problem, Lin Yuan needs to be careful.]

— [What’s there to be afraid of? I’m not in West Sea City. If I were, I’d definitely take a taxi over to get a free meal. This good of a hotel, the food definitely won’t be bad.]

Led by Qin Fen, Lin Yuan arrived backstage in a daze.

In the room, several young Xiao Hu were uniformly dressed in suits, gathered together, chatting and laughing, looking like other Groomsmen.

Besides them, there were also several beautiful Girls sitting on chairs opposite, playing with their phones, uniformly dressed in pink tulle skirts.

From their attire, they seemed to be the bridesmaids for the wedding.

Although their backs were to Lin Yuan, from their backs and figures, they should be quite attractive.

Qin Fen gave some instructions to a staff member nearby, then took Lin Yuan to the dressing room to change into a suit.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lin Yuan showed a satisfied expression.

Even the staff couldn’t help but praise his handsomeness.

After stepping out of the dressing room, Lin Yuan looked around, thought for a few seconds, and walked towards the chatting Groomsmen without hesitation.

Everything about today’s event was strange, so this was a good opportunity to chat and sound them out.

The other Groomsmen saw Lin Yuan approaching and all proactively smiled and greeted him: “Handsome guy, come chat.”

Lin Yuan smiled and nodded, politely responding.

After all, they were all young people, and all Groomsmen, so Lin Yuan quickly started chatting with them, and the atmosphere was quite good.

However, as they chatted, he discovered a strange phenomenon.

These three Groomsmen didn’t know each other before!!

They all only met today.

This was a bit baffling.

Normally, those invited to be Groomsmen are almost always good friends from university, work, or the military.

Not to say everyone has a very close relationship, but at least they know each other.

Situations like this, where no one knows anyone else, are truly rare.

However, Lin Yuan didn’t think much of it and chatted enthusiastically with the other three Groomsmen.

As they chatted, one of the Groomsmen wearing eyeglasses, lowered his head and whispered: “Did you see the bridesmaids over there?”

Everyone nodded upon hearing this.

The Eyeglasses Man chuckled: “I’ve seen their faces before, one is prettier than the next. There are four of us, and four of them. We each pick one, let’s see who gets lucky.”

Hearing this, their eyes lit up, and they all showed lewd smiles.

Only the slightly heavier Groomsman looked bewildered, muttering with a bitter face: “I… I don’t know how. I’ve never dated anyone. Can you guys teach me?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone gave him scornful looks and offered suggestions in a flurry.

“What’s so difficult about that? Just go for it, be bold, careful, and thick-skinned.”

“Exactly, there’s nothing to lose if you fail anyway.”

Listening to them talk, the fat Groomsman didn’t show happiness, but rather became more melancholic.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan sighed helplessly and patted the fat Groomsman’s shoulder: “Buddy, have you taken the driving test?”

“Yes! Just got my license this year.” The fat Groomsman nodded blankly.

“That’s good then.” Lin Yuan explained earnestly: “Remember, dating is like taking a driving test.”

“Before pursuing a Girl, it’s like Subject One, you have to learn a lot of theoretical skills.”

“The process of pursuing is like Subject Two. When dealing with various unreasonable demands, you must never mess up, like rolling back on a half-slope start.”

“When facing unpredictable emotions, you can’t hit her chassis when handling them, it shouldn’t be like a right-angle turn.”

“Once you’ve successfully wooed her, it’s like Subject Three. You can try driving on the road, but you must handle all kinds of emergency situations well.”

Listening to Lin Yuan’s analysis, everyone was a bit confused and didn’t understand at all.

The fat Groomsman tilted his head, asking doubtfully: “What about after you get the license?”

Lin Yuan grinned: “Please drive courteously!”

Pfft~~

As soon as he finished speaking, a bridesmaid who was playing with her phone not far away suddenly burst out laughing.
