"That's good to know."
Peng Shiyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at him, she said again, "You were doing well in the army, why did you run here?"
"Of course it's for you guys."
Luo Pengfei flashed a wide grin, "I'm so bored all by myself in the army, of course it's more fun to come and see you guys."
"You little rascal, you're really messing around."
Peng Qibo couldn't help but slap him, "Your dad went through so much trouble to raise you, and you just abandoned your responsibilities and ran away. It's really outrageous."
"Brother Qibo, you know I don't like being in the army."
Luo Pengfei rubbed his shoulder, which was numb from being patted, and said, "If it weren't for you in the army, I would have been discharged long ago. How could I have stayed in the army for so long?"
"You little rascal!"
Peng Qibo was speechless. "Since you've chosen to come here, let's not talk about military matters anymore. Besides, you're here in Xiangdu to carry out a mission as well, so there's nothing wrong with that."
"I think so too."
Luo Pengfei was overjoyed. "When I left Beijing, I visited Grandpa Peng and also met Uncle Peng and Aunt Peng. I told them about my arrival here."
He paused here.
Then he said to Peng Shiyu, "Shiyu, Aunt Peng made some pickles herself and asked me to bring you a few."
Grandpa Peng and Uncle Peng only told us to be careful in Xiangdu and to go back and visit them when we had time.
"I will."
Peng Qibo nodded.
He knew he couldn't go back anytime soon.
"I also miss my grandpa, my parents, and my little brother."
When her family was mentioned, Peng Shiyu's eyes reddened. "When Sister Jingyu returns to Beijing next time, I must go back with her."
"By the way, where's Jingyu?"
Luo Pengfei looked at the two of them and asked, "Don't you all live together?"
"I live in the same neighborhood as Sister Jingyu and Sister Xinyue."
Peng Shiyu explained, "My older brother lives here by himself, but you can also stay here. There are two rooms anyway."
Jingyu went to see Mr. Jinming today; she's neither at home nor at the company.
"When it's time for dinner, I'll ask her and Sister Xinyue to come over and welcome you over."
"OK."
Luo Pengfei nodded in agreement.
really.
The two women came over hand in hand that evening.
Once everyone met, they immediately went out for a lively meal.
Tonight is a welcome dinner for Luo Pengfei.
After dinner.
Peng Shiyu followed them back to the suite.
She wanted to take the things her mother had given her back to her own place.
"Qibo, you guys look the same as before."
Thinking about what he had observed that evening, Luo Pengfei couldn't help but ask, "Has Jingyu forgiven you?"
"What do you mean, forgive me?"
Peng Qibo paused for a moment, then immediately understood what he meant. "Are you misunderstanding? She has never blamed me, okay? There is no fault on either side."
It's simply that the two families weren't a good match.
Luo Pengfei asked curiously, "Wouldn't that make it easier for you two to get back together?"
"complex?"
Peng Qibo shook his head. "I've said it before, there's no problem between us. The main reason and the main problem isn't with us, it's with our elders."
We cannot make concessions on behalf of either set of parents, so we have no choice but to accept this outcome.
"What, what kind of situation is this?"
Luo Pengfei couldn't help but complain, "It's clearly you two who are getting married, but instead of giving our blessings, the elders want to break you up. I really don't know what to say."
"Marriage is not just a matter between two people."
Peng Qibo said calmly, "It's a matter between two families. Since the elders of both families can't accept it, we don't want to put them in a difficult position, so we can only let it go."
"Brother, what do you mean the elders of both families don't accept it?"
Peng Shiyu looked displeased. "The person who opposed your marriage from beginning to end was your aunt, okay? If your aunt hadn't gone too far, the elders of the Zhang family would never have known."
"Whoever's daughter is being bullied like this, and they're still willing to marry her off, that's the real problem, okay?"
"Poetic Language"
Luo Pengfei quickly pulled the outspoken man back, saying, "Brother Qibo knows what's going on in this matter."
“I’m telling the truth.”
Peng Shiyu was somewhat indignant, "Sister Jingyu has had it so hard all these years, shouldering so many responsibilities all by herself, and facing life-threatening situations every day."
Her aunt not only showed no consideration for her, but also constantly complained about this and that.
The words they said were so awful, not to mention Aunt Lin couldn't help but hit them, even I felt like I wanted to strike...
"Poetic language, stop talking."
Luo Pengfei tugged at her hand forcefully.
She then said to Peng Qibo, whose expression was grim, "Brother Qibo, it's all my fault for bringing this up at the wrong time. I think Shiyu is drunk."
"I'm not drunk."
Peng Shiyu glared at him, but she was indeed not drunk, despite being able to drink several glasses of wine.
She had been keeping this topic to herself, but tonight she couldn't help but let it out.
Regardless of whether her elder brother was happy or not, she continued, "Brother, you can see how heavy Jingyu's burden is. It's really too much for Aunt to bully her like this."
Don't blame Jingyu for breaking off the engagement with you; I would have done the same if I were in her shoes.
Even if it weren't for her elders, just for her own pride, she could never agree to marry him.
"Stop talking!"
Luo Pengfei picked up the things lying next to him, pulled her and walked out, saying, "It's getting late, you should go back quickly, maybe Xinyue and the others are waiting for you."
