Chapter 153 It's not just fireworks that are burning.
Jin Gubei looked at Luo Shu, whose face was flushed, turned away, and wanted to say something but didn't.
Yu Zhan ate really well...
"Minister Jin, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Luo Shu pursed her lips.
Jin Gubei hummed in agreement, but didn't look at her.
Luo Shu didn't rush back to her room, but instead went to Yu Yu, Jiang Qi, and Jiang Xue'er, who were drinking and eating barbecue under the pavilion.
"When did you get back? You didn't even say a word?" Luo Shu looked at the three of them huddled together, leaning against each other.
Seeing Luo Shu approach, Jiang Qi sneered, "Your husband paid us a month's salary. I never thought there would be a day like this, when someone throws a check in my face and forces me to rest. Your husband is the first one."
"So when did you start planning this?" She poured herself a glass of wine, glancing at Yu Zhan, who was chatting in the courtyard.
He also noticed Luo Shu's gaze, but simply looked at her gently and quietly, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Yu frowned and thought for a moment, "I think I was added to the group at the beginning of last month, and he started making arrangements in the group on the third day after I was added."
"You even created a group chat?" Luo Shu was shocked.
"Everyone who came tonight is in the group chat, except for you, Mu Bu, and Gong Qingzui. But those two are an exception." Yu Yu leaned her head on Jiang Xue'er's shoulder enviously. "Look at their relationship, so direct and domineering."
Luo Shu smiled, her cheeks flushed, realizing only after the fact that she had received such deep affection.
She picked up a skewer of barbecue and stuffed it into her mouth.
Tonight, she received love from all directions, and her heart was filled with gratitude.
Luckily, I married him.
She made the right choice back then, and she won a fortune from this gamble.
The people in the courtyard left one after another, and Luo Qiu and Zhou Zhiyi's group did not intend to stay.
Luo Shu hugged the two of them tightly, her heart filled with emotion, but she couldn't say anything when she tried to speak.
"I'm leaving A-Zhan in your care." Zhou Zhiyi smiled and pinched Luo Shu's cheek. "He's not just trying to trick you into marriage; he truly loves you."
Luo Shu chuckled.
So, Yu Zhan really does have a touch of marriage fraud about him, and he was quite successful at it.
"Don't even mention you, I'm touched by Zhan's thoughtfulness." Luo Qiu looked at her with relief. "You two must stay together!"
When Yu Zhan was planning this proposal, Luo Qiu couldn't sleep for nights on end; she was too excited to calm down.
"Don't worry, you two beauties." How could Luo Shu not know what Yu Zhan was thinking?
She had decided on this man for the rest of her life.
It was already 1:30 a.m. when I saw them off.
Everyone in the courtyard has left.
Gong Qingzui also walked out of the courtyard.
"Thank you," he said.
Luo Shu smiled and said, "I wish you happiness too."
"Is she alright?" Gong Qingzui was still a little worried.
I'm worried that Jin Zhinan will definitely find a place to hide first thing tomorrow morning and may not show up until the eve of the wedding.
“She’s alright…” Luo Shu didn’t know how to tell him.
"If you can, please apologize to her for me."
Jin Zhinan probably didn't want to pay attention to Gong Qingzui anymore, and even blocked him on WeChat, but he still didn't want to make trouble for himself.
"Okay." Luo Shu nodded.
Gong Qingzui didn't ask any more questions, as Yu Zhan had already told her quite a bit.
Gong Qingzui thought that since the two of them knew they wanted to be together, there was no need to care about so many twists and turns. It seemed that some things still had to be done step by step.
After seeing off the last person, she finally relaxed and walked towards the man in the courtyard.
The campfire was still burning, and the firewood was crackling.
The nights in March are still a bit chilly.
However, since they had both drunk some wine, and with the intense heat of the fire, they didn't feel much cold.
Yu Zhan leaned back on the bench, legs spread apart, one hand holding a wine glass, the other resting on the back of the chair, watching her walk towards him with tender eyes.
Luo Shu sat down next to him, and he naturally put his hand on Luo Shu's shoulder.
"It seems Manager Mu has gone back," Luo Shu said.
"Hmm," Yu Zhan replied indifferently.
"I heard from Yu Yu that you ordered a dress for Teacher Hu."
"Hmm." Yu Zhan took a sip of his drink. "Two hundred thousand, who offered that price?"
"Huh?" Luo Shu didn't understand what he meant by asking the question.
"Two hundred thousand is too little. Teacher Hu is so famous. You can ask for more next time."
Luo Shu chuckled, both angry and annoyed, "I'm just afraid you'll spend too much money."
"It's not like I'm paying for it, why would I waste money?" Yu Zhan's gaze lingered on her face, and he frowned. "Do you think I would spend 200,000 yuan to order a dress for this completely unrelated woman?"
"..." Isn't that right?
Luo Shu saw helplessness in his eyes.
Yu Zhan chuckled to himself and downed the wine in his glass in one gulp.
"This young lady has quite the imagination; in your eyes, your husband is such a promiscuous man."
"I was just asking."
Luo Shu pursed her lips and rested her head on his shoulder.
This Mu Bu is quite cunning. He showed off in public, making people mistakenly believe that the outfit was a gift from the boss. Little did they know that it was just vanity at play.
She smiled meaningfully, it seemed she needed to drop some bombshells.
"It's a good thing you asked, otherwise you would have been maddened by keeping it to yourself." Yu Zhan felt a chill run down his spine. Fortunately, nothing went wrong when he put the ring on her finger, otherwise tonight would have been wasted.
He gritted his teeth and pinched her cheek fiercely yet gently.
"Chasing you has exhausted all my energy, how can I have the brains to care about the life or death of other women?" He grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms.
"I was being stingy." Luo Shu was in a great mood because of his words.
"It's better to be a little stingy," Yu Zhan murmured. He couldn't be generous about something like this.
That day, Mu Bu begged Yu Zhan to help her order a dress. Since she didn't really know Teacher Hu, and she wanted to shine when the company went public, she spared no expense.
But who knew that Yu Zhan was slowly taking back her power and kicking her out of the game? Now she's like a frog being slowly boiled in water, unable to jump up again.
She only realized it belatedly.
Luo Shu wrapped her arms around his waist and snuggled closer to him.
"Ah Zhan, thank you."
"Okay, I'll thank you when I get back to my room."
Yu Zhan curled the corners of his mouth and spoke in a deep voice.
She pressed her ear against his chest, the hot breath and the strong vibrations of his heartbeat clearly reaching her eardrums.
"Look up." Yu Zhan pinched her soft waist.
Luo Shu turned her head and looked up at the sky, but there was nothing there.
In the pitch-black twilight, the night sky resembled an overturned inkstone. The man gently draped his coat over her shoulders, the thin fabric warmly enveloping her flowing hair.
"Three, two, one..." he muttered to himself.
Silvery-white fireworks streaked across the sky, exploding into a waterfall of stars at their highest point, the shimmering starlight illuminating her upturned profile.
The man lowered his head, looking at the profile of her face bathed in a soft, rosy light. He reached out and brushed a strand of hair that had fallen beside her ear, his fingertips accidentally brushing against her burning earlobe.
The moment Luo Shu turned to look at him, a thousand fireworks burned in her pupils, more dazzling than the fireworks at that moment.
That was the Milky Way suddenly surging in his eyes...
And what's burning at this moment isn't just fireworks.
