This Captain Li is really dedicated to his work, isn't he?
However, in his police uniform, Captain Li looks even more handsome and impressive, causing the girls around to be momentarily stunned before their faces turn red in reaction.
Especially the group of girls who had earlier tried to get on good terms with Lin Sisi—they now looked even more excited, their eyes sparkling.
They hadn't expected Lin Sisi's family to be so well-connected.
Initially, they were worried that if Director Li came, Captain Li probably wouldn't. After all, according to Lin Sisi, Captain Li was always busy and might not be able to make it.
But to their surprise, not only did Director Li come, but Captain Li showed up too.
It was truly a delightful surprise.
A woman eagerly stepped forward to greet him. "Hello, Captain Li. Sisi mentioned that you're usually very busy, so it's such a pleasant surprise to see you here today."
"Yes, we're lucky to be here, thanks to Sisi," another chimed in.
Captain Li had just stepped out of the car when he found himself surrounded by several women. He couldn't help but frown slightly.
Hearing their words, he glanced over at Lin Sisi.
Lin Sisi felt a bit uneasy and couldn't help but avert her gaze, her eyes flickering nervously—a telltale sign of someone who had just lied.
"Captain Li, you must really care about Sisi! You even came straight here in your uniform—did you just get off work? That's so thoughtful of you!"
"Exactly, no wonder Sisi said you two are close," another added.
The group kept talking about Sisi, their flattering tone unmistakable.
Those nearby overheard and assumed that Captain Li was so eager to attend the wedding that he didn't even have time to change out of his uniform. They didn't think much more of it.
Sisi's parents were grinning from ear to ear, convinced that if Director Li came personally, then Captain Li must also be here for the wedding. They quickly stepped forward, greeting him enthusiastically, "Captain Li, you're here too! Are you here for the wedding? Our Sisi is truly blessed. Please, this way."
The Fu family exchanged puzzled glances, especially Fu Yang and his relatives.
They had known the Si family for over ten years, yet they had no idea they were connected to such influential people.
It was one thing for Director Li to attend, but why did they also know Boss Wang and Chief Zhang? And then there was Captain Li, who was famous in their circles for his dedication to work, never participating in social events. He was so committed that even if it were his own wedding, he might skip it for work. Yet here he was, attending this event, which left everyone bewildered.
Could Lin Sisi really be that influential?
Mrs. Zheng was overjoyed. "It seems Sisi is truly a blessing for our family, bringing us such a wonderful surprise!"
Her own family background was decent, but the Fu family had three generations of officials and were very proud. They had often spoken poorly of her behind her back, and now that she had finally found a wife for her son, the gossip had only gotten worse. They mocked her for choosing such an insignificant country girl.
If it weren't for the longstanding engagement between the Si and Fu families, well-known throughout the military compound, they likely would have canceled the wedding long ago to avoid embarrassment and protect the children's reputations.
