The Soft-Hearted Wife of Mr. Big Shot-Chapter 201: Attending the Wedding

Time passes quickly, and days flow by in seconds and minutes.

Cecilia Bennett is always as tired as a dog, while Holly Sawyer is as idle as a salted fish, their lives a striking contrast.

Cecilia promised to take Holly to crash some wedding banquets, and she really did.

"Getting married in such cold weather must be tough."

Holly tightened her coat around her and shrank her neck as she spoke.

It’s so cold, the bride might get frozen.

"Eating at the banquet is no easier."

Cecilia replied.

Indeed, it’s tough in such cold weather.

However, standing together, Cecilia Bennett and Holly Sawyer create a clear seasonal contrast.

Holly is definitely winter, while Cecilia looks like autumn.

Holly is wrapped in a thick cotton coat, with a scarf and a thick hat.

Cecilia wears a bright red woolen coat and a knit hat on her head, looking very fashionable.

"You’re wrapped up like a dumpling."

Cecilia rested her hand on Holly’s head and said calmly.

Holly’s head was almost invisible, she had wrapped herself up so well.

"Style or warmth, I choose the latter."

Holly shrank her neck deeper into her scarf and yawned.

Between style and warmth, she decisively chose warmth; she was afraid of the cold, even if it meant wrapping herself into a ball, she didn’t mind at all.

"You’re making it seem as if I care about style."

Cecilia reached out her cold hand to pinch Holly’s face.

Holly quickly jerked away and slapped Cecilia’s hand hard.

Her hands were so cold, and she still wanted to touch her face; she was just asking for trouble.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, don’t you know getting hit in winter hurts more?"

Cecilia wiggled her hand, looking at Holly with a face full of grievance.

It didn’t really hurt; she was just pretending.

"I know."

Holly rolled her eyes at Cecilia.

The two playfully bickered all the way to the wedding venue.

There were many people. Cecilia pulled Holly’s hand, found a warm corner to sit down, and they chatted while munching on sunflower seeds.

"I finally understand why you were always without suitors."

Cecilia said bluntly, looking at Holly after turning down yet another guy who wanted her WeChat.

Even when sitting in a corner, many noticed Cecilia’s looks, wanting her WeChat.

Cecilia was naturally pretty and well-dressed, easily catching people’s eyes.

As for Holly, she was always left unnoticed.

Holly was wrapped up so tightly, only her black eyes visible.

"Why?"

Holly asked nonchalantly while munching on seeds.

She wasn’t really bothered by it.

"Just look at yourself now."

Cecilia took a mirror from her bag and held it up to Holly’s face.

"Nothing’s wrong."

Holly blinked at her reflection, looking confused.

Nothing seemed wrong.

"You’re so bundled up, who could recognize you?"

Cecilia put away the mirror and gave Holly a big eyeroll.

Good looks are meant to be shown. If you don’t show them, how would others know, right?

Holly’s response was bland: "Oh."

"Saves me trouble."

Holly yawned and said softly.

If it’s all about rejection anyway, avoiding complications is better.

"There’s really nothing to it; see, I have a boyfriend and you don’t, right?"

Holly spread her hands and shrugged.

Cecilia: "..."

She felt a bit hurt, though she didn’t show it.

Between best friends, teasing and banter is perfectly normal.

"So many quality guys; they’re still not as good as Leo Grant."

Holly said, smiling when mentioning Leo.

None of them could compare to Leo. In her heart, there was only Leo.

"Oh wow, you’re trying to show off, aren’t you?"

Cecilia grabbed a candy and stuffed it into Holly’s mouth, a bit aggressively.

Holly just needed a little payback. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

They were used to teasing each other, always pointing out each other’s flaws, but never really getting mad.

"Just reminding you to find a boyfriend. I don’t want to have a boyfriend while you’re single, or get married while you’re single, or be pregnant while you’re single, or have my kid start school while you’re still single."

Holly counted on her fingers, speaking slowly, with a smile in her eyes as she looked at Cecilia.

These kinds of lines have been quite popular lately, and Holly thought it suited her current speech.

"Holly, you’re cursing me!"

Cecilia glared at Holly, as if about to eat her alive.

"No, just worried that even by the time my kid gets married, you’ll still be single."

Holly shrugged, looking relaxed.

Cecilia felt like she was about to explode with anger, desperately wanting to hit Holly, ahhhh.

"Here, warm up your hands."

Leo Grant suddenly appeared, handing a cup of hot milk tea to Holly, speaking gently.

Knowing she was here, he came over, bringing her hot milk tea to warm her up a bit.

She was afraid of the cold, and the milk tea could warm her.

"Thank you, Leo."

Holly’s eyes lit up instantly.

"Why did you come?"

Holly immediately asked.

Leo should be working at this time, right?

"Grandpa asked me to. Knowing you were here, I came over."

Leo adjusted Holly’s hat and spoke slowly.

Even though Old Man Grant and the others were close, Leo wasn’t particularly close to these two younger ones, rarely interacting.

Whether he came or not didn’t matter, but knowing Holly was here, he decided to come.

Holly nodded: "Oh."

"I’ll head over there first; call me if you need anything, I’m nearby."

Leo rubbed Holly’s head, his voice doting and gentle.

Holly was chatting with her friend, so he didn’t want to disturb, going to find Noah and the others instead.

He wondered what kind of mood Nathaniel was in now.

"Okay."

Holly nodded, watching Leo leave.

Cecilia folded her arms, watching Holly with interest.

"People with partners are different."

Cecilia remarked, shaking her head at Holly.

"Here, have a sip of milk tea."

Holly inserted a straw and handed it to Cecilia, speaking softly.

The milk tea was still warm. Holding it, Holly felt her whole hand warm up.

"Milk tea bought by someone else’s boyfriend really does taste different."

Cecilia accepted it without hesitation, taking a big sip of Holly’s milk tea, speaking slowly.
