Chapter 436 A Double-Standard Woman

"I also think the Chinese style is better." Meng Anran gave Lu Heng a happy smile.

The nerves around Lu Heng's lips trembled slightly.

My sister looks so pretty when she smiles...

Lu Yi rolled his eyes, "What I just said was also Chinese style!"

Meng Anran's smile faded, "I didn't ask you!"

Lu Yi: ...

Haha, a woman with double standards!

It doesn’t matter, how is this not a special treat?

Su Wanman tugged at her husband and whispered in his ear, "Why do I feel like Lu Heng and Lu Yi have changed a lot? Were they like this before?"

Meng Rong curled his lips and said, "If they hadn't changed, they would have been fighting with An Ran by now."

How could they possibly sit here calmly and discuss her marriage?

"I guessed it." Qin Mu looked at Meng Anran with a smile, "I have made an appointment with several embroidery masters to hand-tailor your wedding dress."

In addition to the wedding dress, the phoenix crown, round fan, and wedding shoes also need to be customized.

Something unique deserves a unique girl.

These things take a long time to complete, so there is no rush to set a specific wedding date.

As for miscellaneous matters like wedding photos, the couple can decide on their own and there is no need to discuss it.

Initially, the issue of betrothal gifts and dowry had not yet been decided, so there was no need to discuss it further.

Because they were all rejected by Meng Anran.

The gold, silver, jewelry, jade and porcelain on the gift list were regarded as betrothal gifts, and she would not accept other shops, properties, or shares.

She and Qin Mu can be said to be evenly matched in strength, but they cannot be said to have similar family backgrounds.

When getting married, it is the parents' responsibility to contribute to the dowry. She knew very well that the assets that Mengrong and Su Wanman could provide were far less than the betrothal gift given by the Qin family.

She didn't want to put too much psychological pressure on her parents and empty their family savings just to support her.

Anyway, the dowry will eventually fall into her pocket, and she doesn't need the money.

It would be better to just reduce the betrothal gifts and just give some gifts to add to the festive atmosphere.

All matters, big and small, were basically settled, and it was getting dusk.

"Our home is small, why don't we go to Yandu Hotel for dinner?" Meng Yushu suggested.

"Okay, I'll let Chen Jing prepare the food." Meng Anran immediately called Chen Jing.

There were a lot of people tonight, and she was afraid that her private box would not be able to accommodate everyone, so she asked Chen Jing to reserve a larger room.

The Qin family took the same car as when they came.

Mengrong's Land Rover carried Su Wanman, Mengzhen, and their two sons.

Meng Anran is with the Lu brothers.

Lu Yi rolled his eyes as he sat in the passenger seat. He was so depressed that he wanted to tear Meng Anran's head off to see what was inside. "You actually plan to get married and believe that a man will love you forever?"

"It's hard to say about other men, but I trust Qin Mu." Meng Anran in the back row unconsciously turned the bracelet on her wrist.

"People change. You've known him for twenty years and thought he was wonderful, but who knows if he'll remain the same for the next sixty?"

"Of course people change. A year ago, you and I wouldn't have been able to sit in the same car."

When Meng Anran said this, Lu Yi choked and was speechless.

She continued, "If I find out he's treating me badly in the future, I have the ability to withdraw at any time."

She cannot control others, but she is absolutely confident in her own life.

Do what she wants to do, love who she wants to love, and she has the ability to bear any consequences.

Lu Yi fretfully took out a cigarette, but before he could light it, Lu Heng slapped him hard: "No smoking in the car."

The cigarette box was deformed by Lu Yi's pinch. He hated Lu Heng's preaching the most, but when he thought of his sister still in the car, he threw the cigarette away angrily.

Seeing that he was too angry to talk anymore, Lu Heng glanced at his sister through the rearview mirror and asked, "An Ran, are you really not going to ask for a dowry?"

"I'm the richest person in the Meng family, so why should I ask my parents for a dowry?" Meng Anran replied calmly. Realizing that Lu Heng was trying to give her a dowry, she added, "Don't give me real estate. Why not give me something interesting as a wedding gift?"

When Lu Heng heard this, he nodded in understanding.

His sister likes interesting things, so he has to go back and think about it carefully.

"Is there anything you want?" He probed first. "Anything decorative or practical?"

"It's all right. I want something memorable."

After Meng Anran finished speaking, an idea suddenly occurred to her, and she patted the back of the passenger seat: "Hey, aren't you going to participate in the Bayinke car race? I haven't seen the gold medal in racing yet!"

Lu Yi made an OK gesture without even turning his head, "No big deal, I will definitely win it back for you."

Not to mention a gold medal, even if Meng Anran wanted the stars in the sky, Lu Yi would pick them down for her.

She gave him his life.

Walking towards the light is his only belief in his future life.

Lu Yi had already decided on the wedding gift, and Lu Heng asked, "Anything else you would like?"

"Hmm..." Meng Anran pursed her lips and thought seriously. After a long while, she finally remembered what she wanted: "I also want the medal for the archery competition. There is a horseback archery competition in the border area every August. Can you help me win it? Any medal of any rank will do."

Hearing this, Lu Heng's eyes became complicated and he bit his back teeth.

Horseback riding and archery are things that the Lu family child has been exposed to since childhood. He started learning horseback riding and archery in junior high school, and by the time he was in high school, his horseback riding and archery skills were well-known in the circle.

But... once he was framed, the horse was frightened, and the arrow he shot missed the target and injured another horse.

The blood dyed his eyes red, and he almost had a seizure in public. Fortunately, the housekeeper was there and quickly took him away, thus concealing his bloodthirsty symptoms.

After that, he never pulled the bow again and focused all his energy on business.

Meng Anran poked his arm and deliberately softened her voice: "Brother, is this okay?"

Lu Heng was shocked.

My sister actually acted like a spoiled child towards him?!

"Okay." He heard himself answer without thinking.

Lu Yi was immediately displeased: "You are so mean to me, but you act like a spoiled child to him? No, you have to act like a spoiled child to me like this, or I won't win the gold medal for you."

Meng Anran rolled her eyes at him and said, "You wish! Who on earth did I owe the seventeen years of hardship that I endured in the Lu family?"

Lu Yi was once again restrained by a sentence, "Then... considering that the Ping An Kou saved you from disaster, can you call me Second Brother?"

Meng Anran rolled her eyes to the sky and pouted proudly: "It's just barely passable. I'm just waiting for my second brother to win the Bayinke competition and bring me a gold medal."

Lu Yi was satisfied, and curled his red lips in an evil way, "Of course!"

After sending Meng Anran to the entrance of Yandu Hotel, Lu Heng took Lu Yi back.

They were not familiar with the Qin family, and even less familiar with the Meng family, so they could not eat at the same table.

Now that all matters related to the wedding have been settled, they are too lazy to deal with them.

Meng Anran made an appointment to treat them to dinner alone tomorrow night.

Otherwise, she would have to go to Yatang in a few days, and they might not see each other for a long time.

Fate is a wonderful thing. As soon as Meng Anran walked into the lobby, she saw Lillian and Situ Huajian.

Lillian was dressed beautifully, wearing a heavy dress, with her blonde hair curled into curls and tied up behind her head, looking like a doll.

She was holding Situ Huajian's hand.
