Andrew stood in the audience, quietly watching this heartwarming scene, feeling a surge of emotion. At the same time, he was also reminded of the complex, overt and covert conflicts within his own family.
Looking at the newlyweds hugging each other affectionately on the stage, Andrew secretly made up his mind that from now on, he would not only protect his career as he protected this sincere love, but also stop those uncles with ulterior motives from usurping his rights and wealth at all costs.
Qin Nuo raised his glass with a smile, gently clinking it against Andrew's, making a crisp, pleasant sound. Gratitude gleamed in his eyes, and he said with a smile, "Thank you so much, Andrew! If you hadn't intervened in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. It's truly unbelievable that my uncle, who's always been incredibly capable and omnipotent, would actually be so helpless!"
Andrew smiled slightly upon hearing this, his lips curled up into a beautiful arc, and he said slowly, "Haha, there's an old saying in this world - care leads to confusion! I'm sure what your uncle wants most urgently is how to make your beautiful and gentle aunt trust him completely."
Andrew paused briefly, as if he was about to speak, but he took a deep breath and continued, "Arnold, the development plan for Yufeng Mountain may need to be delayed for a while. After a field investigation, I found that the infrastructure there is extremely weak and rudimentary. Under the current circumstances, I simply cannot find sufficient and convincing reasons to convince the elders in the clan to agree to move forward with this project. After all, for businessmen, profit is always the primary consideration. Without good development prospects and considerable profit margins, such a project will naturally be difficult to carry out smoothly."
After hearing Andrew's words, Qin Nuo frowned slightly, pursed his lips, and after a moment's silence, he slowly responded, "Hmm...it's true that I didn't consider it thoroughly enough before. In that case, let's not think about tourism development for now, and just think of it as experiencing the unique mountain New Year's Eve banquet firsthand! Anyway, there's no need to rush tourism development so quickly."
Bai Nini sat quietly beside Qin Nuo, her beautiful eyes filled with wonder as she stared at him intently. When Qin Nuo had mentioned developing Yufeng Mountain, she had assumed it was just a spur-of-the-moment idea. But now, from his determined gaze and serious attitude, she realized that he wasn't just talking nonsense; he truly wanted to turn Yufeng Mountain into a tourist destination.
If Yufeng Mountain could be successfully developed and the booming tourism industry could drive local economic growth, then the villagers would no longer have to leave their hometown to seek a living elsewhere and could earn a substantial income right at home. The thought of this filled Bai Nini with anticipation and joy.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Even Andrew had already made it clear that if an undeveloped mountain like Yufeng Mountain were to be carefully transformed into a popular tourist attraction, it would not only cost a huge amount of money, but it was also uncertain whether it would ultimately yield the desired returns! Thinking of this, Bai Nini sighed helplessly in her heart, then lowered her head silently and began to eat the dish that Qin Nuo had just put in her bowl.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the grand and romantic wedding of Luo Shujun and Liu Dandan came to a successful conclusion. After the wedding banquet, Qin Nuo and Bai Nini personally bid farewell to Andrew and Alice, and returned to Qin Nuo's luxurious villa together.
The night was as dark as ink, dotted with stars. Bai Nini stood quietly in the garden, the soft light like a veil, gently enveloping her petite figure, as if she were covered in a dreamy cloak. Yet, within this tranquil atmosphere, a faint sense of loneliness lingered, like the most distant star in the night sky, twinkling faintly but always out of reach.
At that moment, Qin Nuo slowly walked out of the room, Bai Nini's coat in hand. His footsteps were as light as a breeze, afraid to disturb the tranquility. When he reached Bai Nini, he carefully draped the coat over her shoulders, then stretched out his arms and gently embraced her from behind.
He lowered his head, leaned close to Bai Nini's ear, and whispered softly, "Baby, what are you thinking about? Are you envious of your uncle and aunt's love? Don't worry, we'll get married as soon as you graduate! Then, everyone will know that you are my bride."
Hearing Qin Nuo's words, Bai Nini's face flushed slightly, as cute and charming as a ripe apple. She said coquettishly, "Oh, what are you talking about! I don't envy them at all. I'm just wondering, are you really planning to ask Andrew to develop Yufeng Mountain?"
Qin Nuo smiled slightly, loosened his embrace, and gently turned Bai Nini to face him. He gazed into her clear eyes, lowered his head affectionately, and gently kissed her forehead. Then he said, "Nini, it's not just about asking him to develop Yufeng Mountain. I'm going to develop it with him in a joint venture. It's just... right now isn't the best time. I heard that the government has contacted many large conglomerates in recent years, hoping to develop this precious land. But as soon as they come to inspect it, they shake their heads and leave after taking a look. So, if this thing is to succeed, it may not be that easy."
"Over the past two years, our great motherland has continuously increased its support and assistance to impoverished mountainous areas. Whenever I think of this, my heart is filled with anticipation and longing. For me, when I finish my studies and return to China, perhaps a great opportunity will arise! And right now, the reason I brought Andrew to these deep mountains is simply to let him experience firsthand what life there is like."
"Nini! If one day Yufeng Mountain can be fully developed and utilized, then at that time, I can really stay by your side forever and stay quietly with you in this beautiful mountain!"
Hearing this, Bai Nini couldn't help but widen her eyes, staring at Qin Nuo in astonishment, and asked anxiously: "But, what about Shenghai Group? After all, you will need to take over the management of Shenghai in the future!"
