Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 110 - : This Year’s Mid-Autumn Festival is Especially Sweet
Chapter 110: Chapter 110: This Year’s Mid-Autumn Festival is Especially Sweet
Not long after they set off on foot, they reached the site of the bonfire party.
The night was a bit chilly, but with several bonfires around and the crowd of people, it wasn’t the usual cold but rather sweltering with heat.
Gu Wei and Xiao Ding had already arrived; he stood among the crowd and waved at Su Meixi, who then jogged over to him.
After all, the townspeople already knew they were a couple, so there was no need to hide it.
There were three bonfires in total, with two to three hundred people attending. Initially, everyone danced in a circle around the bonfires, with simple steps that anyone with all their limbs could follow.
Su Meixi and Gu Wei danced hand in hand.
...
The firelight cast a reddish glow on their faces, and it wasn’t long before they were both breaking out in sweat.
When the dancing was over, it was time for free activities.
Some continued to dance, while others started wrestling on the grass.
Su Meixi, tired from dancing, found a spot on the grass and sat down with Gu Wei.
“Having fun?” he asked loudly.
It was noisy with so many people around.
She smiled and replied, “Happy.”
With him by her side, everything was joyful; even the air she breathed tasted sweet!
There was roasted lamb at the event, cheap too—five bucks for a big chunk of meat. Gu Wei asked Su Meixi if she wanted some, and she nodded.
While Gu Wei was buying the roast meat, Su Meixi saw Bi Yuanhang also purchasing two pieces of roast meat not far away, handing one to Weina.
Weina took it and said thank you with little enthusiasm.
Soon enough, two local men approached Weina and asked her to join them in a dance.
Holding her lamb, Weina replied, “I’m still eating, can’t dance.”
“Eat after dancing,” they suggested.
“It’ll be cold after, not as tasty,” Weina declined.
The men seemed inclined to linger, but Bi Yuanhang stepped in front of Weina and said, “Let her finish her food first.”
“Who are you?” one of the men inquired.
“Don’t you know him? He’s one of the doctors here to help,” said the other, looking at Bi Yuanhang.
“Pretty boy.” The man left with these final words.
Bi Yuanhang didn’t take offense, as it wouldn’t be wise to provoke local confrontations.
Weina, seeing Bi Yuanhang stand up for her, got to her feet and said, “You don’t have to defend me, I can handle these things.”
“I… was just worried about you,” Bi Yuanhang responded.
“There’s nothing to worry about.”
Weina left him with those words and went elsewhere.

Bi Yuanhang stood there, stunned.
Though they had been intimate several times since then, it seemed confined to that. She was passionate at night, but during the day she was cold towards him.
Was she unable to let go of her deceased husband, or did she simply see him as a fling?
He wasn’t just a tool to warm her bed, was he?
This thought left Bi Yuanhang somewhat despondent.
…
After eating roasted meat, Su Meixi danced a bit more with Gu Wei.
Later, Gu Wei found the place too noisy and suggested they drive to their old spot to watch the moon.
Just as they were about to get in the car, Xiao Ding remarked, “The boss is going to ditch us again!”
Su Meixi turned to see both Xiao Ding and Da Liu looking at them with longing eyes.
Today was a festival, and festivals were meant to be lively. Seeing the look in Xiao Ding’s eyes, she couldn’t help but say, “Then come with us.”
Xiao Ding asked, “Is that really okay? Won’t we be third-wheeling?”
Despite saying this, his eyes glanced at Gu Wei, hoping for his approval.
Little did he know that Gu Wei’s brother had sent over top-grade custard mooncakes through special channels, and Xiao Ding was eager to try them.
Noticing the hopes of Xiao Ding and Da Liu, Gu Wei said nonchalantly, “Since my wife has invited you, follow along then!”
Xiao Ding and Da Liu were overjoyed at the moment.
At this time, Weina also called out to Su Meixi, “Dr. Su, where are you and Major Gu planning to go?”
“We’re going to another grassland to admire the moon,” Su Meixi asked. “Do you want to come along?”
After all, everyone knew each other well, and it was no issue to celebrate together.
Weina said, “Then may I ride in your car to go there?”
“Sure,” Su Meixi agreed.
Xiao Ding and Da Liu had come in a pickup truck, so there were still seats available.
At this moment, Su Meixi happened to catch a glimpse of Bi Yuanhang nearby.
Bi Yuanhang was eagerly watching Weina, but he was too embarrassed to ask to come along.
For the first time, Su Meixi took the initiative to invite Bi Yuanhang: “Senior, would you like to join us?”
Bi Yuanhang’s eyes lit up, and he quickly followed.
Gu Wei drove, Su Meixi sat in the passenger seat, leaving the back seats to Bi Yuanhang and Weina.
On the way, only Su Meixi and Gu Wei talked, while the two in the back were as quiet as chickens.
10 minutes later, they arrived at the grassland they often visited.
There were many people tonight, so they didn’t set up tents, just spread a tarpaulin on the grass.
Gu Wei took things like mooncakes, cantaloupe, grapes, and red wine out of the car.
Su Meixi and Weina went to cut the fruit first.
Xiao Ding wasn’t good at these delicate tasks, so he took a soccer ball from the car and kicked it around with Da Liu.
Seeing this, Bi Yuanhang also joined in.
Once men had a ball, they would instantly get to know each other; no introductions were needed.
Under the moonlight, Weina watched Bi Yuanhang playing soccer.
He was quite agile, and he played well.
Su Meixi couldn’t help but ask Weina, “Is there something going on between you and Senior? I’ve noticed he’s been looking at you a lot lately.”
Weina laughed and said, “I don’t think so. He’s more likely looking at you. He originally came pursuing you.”
“No, he hasn’t been looking at me lately. I’ve often seen him smiling to himself at work, and he’s in a rush to get back to the restaurant after work. That’s a state of being in love. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have dared call him to come along.”
Weina paused, but then quickly put on an indifferent face: “Well, if he moved on that fast, chasing you one moment and changing his heart the next, it shows he’s not a committed man.”
Su Meixi: “…”
It wasn’t that Bi Yuanhang was two-timing; he was just pursuing another person he liked after failing to get the one he liked. That seemed normal enough.
Su Meixi even sympathized with Bi Yuanhang.
All she could say was, “You’re overthinking it. Just spend more time with him and you’ll know what he’s like.”
…
When the men finished playing soccer, they all sat on the grass, chatting and admiring the moon together.
The moon here seemed much bigger than in Feng City; as described in ancient poetry, it was like a white jade plate.
Su Meixi felt that the moon was particularly beautiful this year, this year’s mooncakes tasted better than before, and the people seemed particularly pure.
Now she had a lover, friends, as well as wine and mooncakes.
They drank and chatted merrily, toasting the bright moon, chatting into the night.
Bi Yuanhang, who had always seemed like an outsider, finally integrated into their group.
Since Su Meixi had spoken to Gu Wei about him and Weina, Major Gu was no longer on guard against Bi Yuanhang; he even gave him a slice of mooncake with egg yolk while they were cutting it.
Into the latter part of the night, they still set up tents; Su Meixi and Weina slept inside the tents, while the men slept outside on moisture-proof mats.
Emboldened by their numbers, they slept on the grass until dawn like this.
…
In the morning, Gu Wei took Su Meixi to the health clinic and dropped Weina and Bi Yuanhang at the small restaurant.
Weina yawned, planning to go back to sleep a bit more.
Bi Yuanhang quickly called out to her: “Nana!”
