Chu Panshan and Han Ziyuan exchanged a glance, and they understood what Lu Qing meant.
When Lu Qing returned, they desperately wanted to give her all the love they hadn't given her in the past twenty years, without considering whether Lu Qing could accept it.
"I'm sorry, Qingqing, we didn't consider your feelings!"
“Okay, Mom will decorate your room. If you don’t like it, just tell Mom and Mom will change it for you!” Han Ziyuan said.
Lu Qing nodded: "Okay! Just do whatever you want, I'm not picky!"
Han Ziyuan certainly wouldn't just pick anything; since Lu Qing wasn't picky, she would choose the best.
At Chu Panshan's signal, his five sons also said goodbye to Lu Qing and left.
When Gu Xicheng saw that the crowd had dispersed, he was about to go and talk to Lu Qing when he was stopped by his five brothers-in-law.
"Young Master Gu, it's so late, aren't you going home yet?"
Knowing that Lu Qing was engaged to Gu Xicheng, the five of them surrounded him without prior arrangement.
Even Gu Xicheng was breaking out in a cold sweat at this moment:
"I...I'll say something to Lu Qing, then I'll leave!"
"Can't we talk about this tomorrow? It's so late, is it appropriate for you to be in a girl's room?"
"Even if there's an engagement, you can't be this casual before getting married!"
Gu Xicheng: "I... okay!"
He felt somewhat helpless; his five brothers-in-law seemed to harbor quite a bit of hostility towards him.
But it's understandable. After searching for twenty years, the person was almost someone else's after they were finally found. If it were him, he wouldn't be happy either.
"Qingqing, I'll be going now!"
Just as Gu Xicheng finished speaking and was about to leave, Lu Qing chased after him, pushed through the circle of his five older brothers, and grabbed Gu Xicheng's arm.
"Come over tomorrow morning and bring me the yellow bag I left at home, then take me to school."
Gu Xicheng was delighted and nodded with a smile: "Okay! I'll come earlier tomorrow and take you to eat at that noodle shop near Yueqiao!"
Lu Qing nodded repeatedly: "Okay!"
"I'll be going now! See you tomorrow!"
Gu Xicheng raised his hand, intending to pat Lu Qing's head as before, but as soon as he raised his hand, he felt five murderous gazes fall on him.
He glanced at his brothers-in-law out of the corner of his eye, then ignored their stares, pinched Lu Qing's cheek provocatively, and whispered in her ear:
"Good night!"
Lu Qing's ears were practically melting from listening.
She wasn't a fan of sound quality, but Gu Xicheng's voice was excessively pleasant.
Lu Qing blushed upon hearing this.
Gu Xicheng was very satisfied with her reaction, and after feeling smug, he bid farewell to Chu Panshan and Han Ziyuan.
The two nodded with forced smiles.
They couldn't be polite to Gu Xicheng right now, since their daughter was closer to him and they were somewhat jealous.
After Gu Xicheng left, Chu Panshan hurriedly asked:
"Qingqing, when did you meet Gu Xicheng? When did you get engaged?"
Lu Qing thought for a moment and answered, "One year old!"
"Huh?" The crowd was puzzled.
“My master arranged it when I was one year old. He said that he and I were destined to be together, and that our birth charts were very compatible. I also liked him, so we got engaged.”
"Are you satisfied with this engagement? Do you like Gu Xicheng?" Han Ziyuan asked cautiously.
Lu Qing nodded without hesitation:
"I love him! I'm so happy when I'm with him!"
Seeing Lu Qing's smile, Han Ziyuan was a little reluctant, but she still respected her wishes.
"I'm glad you like it! So... when are you planning to get married?"
Han Ziyuan was a little scared, afraid that her daughter would marry someone else as soon as she returned, and she wouldn't even have time to spend with her daughter.
Lu Qing said with a smile:
"Grandma said I'm still young and in school! There's no rush to get married. We'll talk about it when I'm ready!"
Upon hearing this answer, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"No rush!"
It was late at night, and after a busy day, Lu Qing finally had some time to herself.
Han Ziyuan had prepared everything for her, even the clothes she would wear tomorrow.
The mattress was too soft, and she wasn't used to sleeping on it.
After taking a shower, Lu Qing had just lain down when she heard a knock on the door:
"Qingqing, are you asleep?"
It was Han Ziyuan's voice. Lu Qing immediately got up and went to open the door.
"Mom, why are you here so late?"
"I...I..." Han Ziyuan seemed to have some difficulty saying it, and hesitated for a long time.
"Mom, just tell me what's on your mind!" Lu Qing said with a smile.
"Qingqing, I want to sleep with you, is that okay?"
Upon hearing this request, Lu Qing was taken aback:
"You're sleeping with me? What about Daddy?"
Han Ziyuan: "If you weren't already grown up, he would want to come too."
"Qingqing, you've never been by our side since you were little. I haven't held you in all these years."
Lu Qing couldn't help but chuckle:
"Okay! But I'm a restless sleeper, so please remember to stay away from me tonight!"
Lu Qing wasn't just being polite; she really does have a restless sleep at night.
At school, the bed was small, so she couldn't do much, but here, the bed is so big, her hands and feet are no longer restricted.
...
"ah!"
A short, sharp cry of pain suddenly rang out in the pitch-black night.
Lu Qing rolled over, slammed his arm heavily onto her chest, then lifted his foot and pulled her close, using her as a pillow.
Although it hurt quite a bit, Han Ziyuan's face was full of doting smiles.
She turned to the side, reached out and gently patted Lu Qing's back, as if coaxing a child.
Lu Qing originally thought she wouldn't be used to sleeping with someone else in the bed, but smelling Han Ziyuan's fragrance, she slept very soundly.
The next morning at six o'clock, Lu Qing was woken up by the alarm clock.
Han Ziyuan was still asleep. She tiptoed out of bed, but still woke her up.
"Qingqing, why are you up so early?" Han Ziyuan asked.
"I have something to do, Mom, you can go back to sleep. I can manage on my own."
After Lu finished washing up, Gu Xicheng arrived.
She hurried downstairs and ran to the door. Han Ziyuan couldn't sleep anymore and was standing on the balcony watching what Lu Qing was doing.
She felt somewhat helpless when she saw Gu Xicheng appear in the courtyard.
A daughter is like a tree that grows up and leaves home, but fortunately Gu Xicheng is a decent person!
When Han Ziyuan came downstairs, Chu Panshan had already woken up. He was puzzled when he saw Lu Qing fiddling with a bunch of strange things in the yard.
"Qingqing, what are you doing?"
Lu Qing did not answer, so Gu Xicheng stepped forward to explain:
"Uncle Chu, Aunt Chu, Qingqing is setting up an evil-repelling and fortune-gathering formation in the house!"
"Set up an array? What's the point of setting up an array?" Chu Panshan asked.
Gu Xicheng: "It protects the home and ensures safety. With the formation, no matter what kind of evil spirits or monsters they are, they can't get into the house. People living in the formation will also become more and more energetic."
Lu Qing set up one of these formations for the Gu family, and after the family reunion, he thought about setting up one for the Chu family as well.
Although Lu Qing wasn't very familiar with the Chu family, they were all her blood relatives, so she naturally did her best to treat them well.
Fifteen minutes later, Lu Qing had set up the formation. Once activated, everyone instantly felt that their breathing became much easier.
From the outside, there is no change; only those inside can perceive the difference.
At this moment, all five older brothers also got up and came downstairs.
After the formation was activated, everyone was in high spirits, except for the second brother, Chu Qianlin, whose brows were furrowed and who seemed to be feeling unwell.
"Dad, Mom, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Qianlin suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood.
