### Chapter 578: Brothers, Let’s Toast to This Handsome Guy First
Inside the hotel, the decor was lavish, and the hall was filled with guests. The seating was divided into two main areas.
On the left side were Liu Qiang’s friends, family, and former colleagues. On the right side were Li Wenxin’s friends and family. Liu Qiang had been a food delivery guy, and his family wasn’t wealthy or influential, so he had few relatives and friends attending, making up only five or six tables, including his former colleagues.
On the right side, Li Wenxin's relatives alone occupied seven or eight tables, along with four or five tables of business partners and another five or six tables of close friends. This lineup completely overshadowed Liu Qiang’s side.
Moreover, the people on the right side, in terms of clothing and appearance, outshone those on the left side by several levels, not to mention their assets. Anyone picked at random was at least a millionaire or a business elite.
On the left side, everyone was from ordinary working-class backgrounds, including Liu Qiang’s parents. A table of delivery guys even sat at the back. The gap between the two sides was enormous and unbridgeable. The people on the right looked at those on the left with disdain.
One young man glanced at the back table and muttered loudly enough for everyone to hear, “I don’t know what Sister Li was thinking, marrying such a poor loser. Look at the kind of people on that side. Even delivery guys are here! It’s ridiculous.”
“Keep your voice down. Don’t let the groom hear you and get upset,” a nearby person said with a smile, his voice even louder, clearly intending for Liu Qiang to hear. He added, “You don’t understand. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. A person’s fate is set from birth. A sparrow, no matter how high it flies, can never become a phoenix.”
He paused, glanced at Liu Qiang, and continued, “A toad, no matter how high it jumps, can’t eat swan meat!”
The implication was clear: they were mocking Liu Qiang and his friends and family.
“What did you say!?” One of Liu Qiang’s friends stood up angrily.
The young man, Zhao Song, glanced at him and chuckled, “What? Want to fight? Come on, hit me. If you dare, I’ll make sure you lose everything. My life is worth at least five million. Can you afford that?”
Liu Qiang’s friend was furious. He had seen arrogant people before, but never someone this brazen. If it weren’t for Liu Qiang’s wedding, he would have already taken action, regardless of how much the other guy was worth.
Seeing that the other side didn’t dare to make a move, Zhao Song grew even bolder. He nudged a friend next to him and pointed at the last table, “Oh wow, look at that table. Are those delivery guys? Did I see that right? Since when can delivery guys eat at the Pangu Hotel?”
“Zhao Song! Shut up!” Liu Qiang shouted angrily, furrowing his brows. “This is my and Wenxin’s wedding. If you want to stay, then shut up!”
Zhao Song wasn’t fazed at all. He smiled and said, “Sorry, I was invited by Sister Li. If anyone tells me to leave, it’s her. You? You’re not worthy!”
The people around him laughed loudly, their mockery undisguised. Liu Qiang’s shoulders trembled with rage.
Before Liu Qiang could speak, Zhao Song stood up, holding a glass of wine, and said with a smile, “Everyone, we rarely get to gather with the in-laws. We don’t know each other yet. How about we go over and toast them? Come on, let’s go.”
Most of Li Wenxin’s older relatives didn’t move, but Zhao Song seemed to have some influence among the younger generation. As soon as he spoke, many young people stood up, cheering, “Let’s go toast them. I want to see how many of them earn millions a year and how many girls they’ve dated. Probably lifelong bachelors, right? Hahaha…”
A group of young people lined up and walked toward the left side, starting with the last table.
“Hi, I’m Zhao Song, owner of a tech company. May I ask what you do?” Zhao Song asked with a smile.
The person across from him looked upset and replied, “I deliver food.”
“Oh, a very promising career. Keep it up!” Zhao Song smiled smugly and moved on to the next person.
“Hi, I’m Zhao Song. I own a tech company, focusing on game development. What do you do?”
“I drive for Didi.”
Zhao Song: “Hi, I’m Zhao Song, and you are…?”
The other person: “A restaurant waiter.”
Zhao Song, leading the group, continued this from the last table up to the second table. The next table had Liu Qiang’s parents and relatives.
Seeing this, Liu Qiang angrily shouted, “Zhao Song, don’t go too far!”
Zhao Song paused, looked at Liu Qiang, and smiled, “I don’t know what you mean. I’m just introducing my friends to your parents and elders. Why are you so nervous?”
He then walked toward the first table with a sinister glint in his eyes. Zhao Song had once pursued Li Wenxin, a woman worth tens of millions, but she had only seen him as a younger brother. Now, she was marrying a lowly delivery guy? This was a huge insult to him. Today, he would vent all his anger on Liu Qiang and his relatives and friends.
Even though they were married, Zhao Song wouldn’t give up on Li Wenxin. Today, he would thoroughly humiliate these people who didn’t belong in his league.
As Zhao Song approached the first table with his drink, a voice came from the door, “Sorry, Liu Qiang, traffic was bad, so I’m late!”
Hearing this, Zhao Song and the others turned around. Liu Qiang looked delighted and said, “Brother Ye, you’re here! That’s great!”
Zhao Song’s interest was piqued: Brother Ye? Liu Qiang called him Brother? So they’re close? Zhao Song narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Ye Xiu. Hmm, cheap clothes, lazy demeanor, no aura of a high-status person. In short, he’s handsome but nothing else.
After sizing up Ye Xiu, Zhao Song laughed. “So, you’re close with Liu Qiang? Perfect, let’s start with you.”
“Hey, we missed someone. Brothers, let’s toast this handsome guy first!” Zhao Song ordered, leading his friends toward Ye Xiu.
Liu Qiang initially wanted to intervene but then remembered Brother Ye’s multimillion-dollar Lykan Hypersport. Instantly, he felt no urgency, even feeling a bit pleased. Honestly, among all my friends and family, Brother Ye is the most impressive. Zhao Song, make sure to show off with all your might. I’m looking forward to seeing you cry.
