Chapter 156 [End] Grow old together! Never separate!
Li Qingqing has been busy with the store renovation these days, and Lu Yan's Tianjing Company has also successfully overcome the difficulties. Everything is moving in a good direction.
That day, after Li Qingqing finished her work in the store, she went to the Wei family's old house.
Wei Jingzhe had already returned to Xicheng. Li Qingqing felt that Old Mrs. Wei was lonely in the old house, so she went to talk to her and cheer her up.
The old lady was very touched to see her filial piety, as even her own grandson did not have this awareness.
Although the elderly do not have to worry about food and clothing, they always have to find something to do. Old Mrs. Wei usually has a small vegetable garden where she grows some fruits and vegetables.
Seeing Li Qingqing coming, there was nothing good for her to take back, so he picked some crisp radishes for her.
"As for the money, your father has given it all. I don't have much to give you here. I have carefully taken care of this small vegetable garden for a long time. If you don't mind, take some radishes back to try."
Li Qingqing was very happy. "Thank you, grandma. These radishes are much more important to me than money."
She didn't say this intentionally to flatter him. This kind of thing that takes time to nurture has always held a heavy weight in her heart, just like the coral necklace Lu Yan gave her.
After leaving the Wei family's old house, Li Qingqing went straight back to Wanhua. She had been living in Wanhua these days.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the apartment, Li Qingqing met Shen Xing.
When Shen Xing saw her, he immediately showed a look of surprise on his face, and then pretended to be nothing and greeted her.
"Hello, Miss Li. Mr. Lu is waiting for you upstairs."
Li Qingqing felt that Shen Xing’s behavior when he saw her was a little strange.
"wait for me?"
"That's right... I'm leaving first. Goodbye, Miss Li." After saying that, he ran away.
Li Qingqing looked at his back as he hurried away, and was completely confused for a moment.
She went upstairs with doubts, unlocked the door with her fingerprint, and found that the apartment was pitch black. Li Qingqing reached out to turn on the light, only to find that there seemed to be a power outage.
However, thinking about Shen Xing's performance just now, Li Qingqing felt that things should not be that simple.
He said Lu Yan was waiting for her. Maybe this was some romantic surprise Lu Yan had prepared for her?
She looked inside and found a tall figure standing in the living room.
Thinking of the naughty words he said to her in bed last night, Li Qingqing decided to tease him today.
She took out the big green radish from the bag and, imitating Lu Yan's words, said to the figure in the dark in a super greasy bubbling voice:
"Little handsome brother, do you want to taste your sister's big treasure?"
“Bang!”
The lights in the room came on, and the sudden white light made Li Qingqing almost unable to open her eyes.
But when she saw the situation in the room clearly, she wished she were really blind.
…
Everyone in the room stood there in amazement, only Lu Yan was looking at her with a big bouquet of flowers and trying not to smile.
There was also a banner hanging behind that read "Wishing Mr. Lu and Ms. Li a happy marriage."
It really was a “surprise”.
But she didn't expect so many people to come and witness it.
…
For a moment, no one had the courage to speak first.
Li Qingqing took a quick look and found that almost everyone she knew was there.
Shen Lu, Lu Yu, Qin Yichuang, Cheng Yang, and even Wei Qingming and Song Jihe were there.
Li Qingqing held the radish in the air, not knowing whether to put it away or not, so she just stood there awkwardly.
Faced with this sudden change, everyone secretly criticized in their hearts:
Shen Lu: Do these two usually play like this?
Lu Yu: Is my goddess actually this kind of person in private? I'm so disillusioned...
Qin Yichuan: This girl is really fierce...
Cheng Yang: I told you I had already seen through the affair between them!
Wei Qingming: ...
Song Jihe: This girl...just now...should have been talking about radish...
Li Qingqing was like a pot of boiling water at this moment, with steam coming out of her ears, and her whole body was visibly red and warm.
Although Lu Yan was secretly happy, he still came over and hugged her.
"She's talking about carrots, don't get the wrong idea."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and asked her, "Baby, were you talking about radish just now?"
Seeing his evil smile, Li Qingqing tapped his chest resentfully and complained to him in a low voice: "Look, you've led me astray."
Now that things have come to this, it has to be a radish.
Li Qingqing smiled awkwardly and pretended to be calm. "This is the radish that grandma planted. It's delicious. You all should try it..."
Everyone agreed, and this embarrassing scene that made people pick their feet passed.
However, the romantic atmosphere of the proposal was completely broken. Finally, amid everyone's cheering, Lu Yan proposed to Li Qingqing again as usual.
This time it was a real diamond ring. In the presence of relatives and friends, the two hugged each other and cried.
Li Qingqing didn't know why Lu Yan was crying, she only knew that she was crying because she was too embarrassed.
Everyone talked and joked together for a long time. Seeing that his son's proposal was successful, Song Jihe decided to go back first.
Lu Yan and Li Qingqing sent her to the door, and Song Jihe suddenly turned around and said "thank you" to Li Qingqing.
"Ah?" Li Qingqing was confused.
Lu Yan, who was standing by, quickly explained, "Didn't you say you were giving Mom that set of jade jewelry as a birthday present?"
So that's what it was. Li Qingqing instantly understood Lu Yan's good intentions, and she said in agreement, "...as long as you like it."
Song Jihe knew the price of that set of jade jewelry. Now Lu Yan gave it to Song Jihe in the name of Li Qingqing. Even if Song Jihe looked down on Li Qingqing's identity before, he had nothing to say in the future.
After sending Song Jihe away, Li Qingqing lay in Lu Yan's arms and cried again, "Why are you so good to me? I can't repay you enough."
Lu Yan pinched her little face and comforted her: "Silly girl, if it weren't for you, Tianjing would have been lost long ago. What's this little thing? Besides, you will be my wife in the future, so what's yours and mine? I am all yours now."
After hearing Lu Yan say this, Li Qingqing felt a little better.
Lu Yan wiped her tears, and the two of them returned to the house hand in hand.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard two "bang bang" sounds.
Scattered fragments of fireworks fell from the sky, and all the fireworks and ribbons that had not been set off just now were now released all at once.
Everyone's face was filled with happy smiles. They exchanged glances and shouted in unison: "Grow old together! Never separate!"
Amidst the fireworks scattered all over the sky, Li Qingqing and Lu Yan looked at each other, smiling, their hands tightly held together.
From then on, nothing could separate them.
