Lu Qingzhou's gaze swept over Mu Shaohua and Su Qingyao.
She cleared her throat and said to the two women, "Sister Shaohua, Qingyao, the weather is quite nice today, the sun is warm and the breeze is gentle. How about we go for a walk?"
Before Mu Shaohua and Su Qingyao could respond,
Sitting to the side, Leng Yue suddenly clapped her hands, her voice rising several octaves with excitement: "Great! Great! Where shall we go to play?"
Then, changing the subject, she looked at Lu Qingzhou and teased, "But, if you're going out to have fun, just go out to have fun. Why are you talking about it in such a literary way? Are you trying to show off how cultured you are?"
After speaking, she looked at Lu Qingzhou and the others with bright eyes, her previous annoyance and frustration from being fed dog food completely gone.
I'll throw you away, sister...
Lu Qingzhou was speechless for a moment.
Looking at Leng Yue, he thought to himself, "Damn it, I'm asking my own wife! And you're trying to answer before me? Tch..."
However, seeing how enthusiastic and good at livening up the atmosphere this Leng Yue was,
Lu Qingzhou felt a secret sense of joy.
His gaze swept over Mu Shaohua and Su Qingyao again, and he asked softly, "What do you think?"
Su Qingyao smiled gently, her eyes crinkling as she glanced at Mu Shaohua. "Okay."
Mu Shaohua nodded slightly, rested her head on Lu Qingzhou's shoulder, and asked gently, "Where shall we go?"
Lu Qingzhou touched Mu Shaohua's cheek, stood up from the sofa, tilted his head slightly, and thought for a moment: "We're usually stuck in the city all day long. How about we go to the countryside today? Let's go to Qingshuihe. There are guesthouses there, and we can have a barbecue, drink, and sing. It sounds so pleasant, what do you think?"
Upon hearing Lu Qingzhou say that they were going to Qingshui River, Su Qingyao felt a surge of joy. Her lips unconsciously curled up into a sweet smile, and she nodded hurriedly, saying, "Okay, let's go there. I'll go pack my things and bring sunscreen."
Mu Shaohua smiled gently: "Then let's all go as a family. It's been a long time since we've gone out to relax together."
Lu Qingzhou smiled and replied, "Yes, it's better if everyone goes together, it'll be more lively."
The group reached an agreement in a pleasant manner.
Lu Qingzhou hurriedly went to tell Zhouzhou's grandmother about the trip.
Zhang Ruoshui was initially reluctant to go, but then she thought that if she went, she could help take care of Zhouzhou and Momo, which would be good for the young people to relax, so she nodded in agreement.
After everything was prepared,
Leng Yue, along with Zhouzhou, Momo, and Zhang Ruoshui, got into a car;
Lu Qingzhou then took Su Qingyao and Mu Shaohua into another car.
Soon, the two cars set off towards the Qingshuihe B&B.
Along the way,
Leng Yue was like a little ray of sunshine, making the two little girls, Zhouzhou and Momo, chatter on and on.
The two little ones were incredibly excited to know they were going out to play. Zhang Ruoshui and her two daughters occasionally responded with a smile, and the atmosphere seemed fairly relaxed.
After an hour's drive, we exited the highway and turned onto the county road.
When they were still more than ten kilometers away from their destination in Qingshuihe, the group left the county road and continued along the planned rural road.
In the distance, a wide river came into view.
While keeping an eye on the road ahead, Lu Qingzhou said to Su Qingyao and Mu Shaohua in the car, "We'll be at our destination in a little while."
Su Qingyao was wearing a pair of large sunglasses that almost covered half of her face.
She gazed at the picturesque scenery in the distance, a smile playing on her lips, and said to Lu Qingzhou, who was driving, "Qingzhou, I didn't expect you to still remember this place."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingzhou was initially bewildered. What did this mean? I brought you here to have fun. If you didn't know this place, could I have suggested it?
But he quickly recalled. He did seem to have been here with Su Qingyao before. So he replied without hesitation, "I remember, of course I remember. We came here when we were juniors in college. If you hadn't suddenly gotten a high fever that time, I might have 'taken you over' by now."
Hearing him say that, Su Qingyao's cheeks flushed slightly, and she said coquettishly, "Stop talking nonsense. I hadn't even agreed to be your girlfriend back then."
As she spoke, Su Qingyao secretly glanced at Mu Shaohua, whose expression remained indifferent.
She then turned her gaze back to Lu Qingzhou, who was driving, and asked with a hint of reproach, "Qingzhou, I'm curious, when you pursued me so desperately back then, was I really that good?"
The moment Su Qingyao uttered those words, Lu Qingzhou instantly sensed the awkward atmosphere in the car. A sour smell of jealousy filled the entire cabin.
He glanced at the rearview mirror subconsciously and saw Mu Shaohua staring at him with a gloomy expression.
Lu Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, his mind racing, and said, "Qingyao, actually we've known each other for a very, very long time."
That was in my past life, on a snowy winter day, you chased me for a very, very long time. By the way, in my past life my name was Lü Dongbin.
Upon hearing the first half, Su Qingyao felt a surge of sweetness and pride.
But Lu Qingzhou's next sentence puzzled him, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why were you called Lü Dongbin back then?"
She didn't react for a moment, but Mu Shaohua couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Su Qingyao looked annoyed and asked again, "What are you laughing at? What do you mean?"
Mu Shaohua looked at her with a smile, and her previous depressed mood instantly vanished. This silly woman, she didn't even realize it.
