The next afternoon, Bai Ruichen, despite his busy schedule, personally accompanied the young couple to the airport. "Wanzheng, remember to call your dad when you get there. If you miss your mom, give him a video call. Remember to come back soon."
Having finally reunited with his daughter, Bai Ruichen was truly reluctant to part with her so soon, worried that she would be blinded by the allure of the outside world and never return.
Lu Wanzheng had no idea what Bai Ruichen was imagining, but she could still see the worry on his face. So she gave Bai Ruichen a hug and rubbed against him as usual, saying, "Dad, I'll be back soon."
Bai Ruichen was a little stunned by his daughter's sudden enthusiasm, as he had never encountered anything like this before. He stiffly raised his hand and touched Lu Wanzheng's head, "I know, it's time to board, don't be late."
Out of a father's duty, he looked at Xiao Qifeng and said, "Qifeng, you better take good care of Wanzheng. If I find she's lost weight when you come back, I'll break your legs." Bai Ruichen spoke fiercely, showing no respect for Xiao Qifeng.
Xiao Qifeng could only smile apologetically and promise to raise Lu Wanzheng to be plump and healthy.
The son-in-law would probably not get much benefit from his father-in-law's treatment, so Lu Wanzheng would naturally not let Xiao Qifeng be at a disadvantage.
She released Bai Ruichen. "Dad, Qi Feng took care of me before. I'm lively and energetic every day. She took good care of me, so don't worry. If you don't believe me, touch my face. This is all thanks to Mr. Xiao's money that I've been fattened up."
Xiao Qifeng naturally knew that Lu Wanzheng was helping him. He could tell that she would choose to stand by him rather than her father. Thinking about it this way, Xiao Qifeng's bad mood from being bullied by his father-in-law just now disappeared instantly.
Bai Ruichen didn't actually pinch Lu Wanzheng's cheeks. He glanced at her, sighed, and said, "Girls grow up and leave home, out of sight, out of mind. Let's go. If you're wronged, remember to tell me, and I'll definitely fly to Kyoto to beat up that brat for you!"
"Thank you, Dad!" Lu Wanzheng took Xiao Qifeng's arm, and the man beside her pushed the suitcase in his hand. The two walked towards the boarding gate. Lu Wanzheng turned around and saw Bai Ruichen still standing there. She waved and said, "Dad, let's go back. Tell the driver to drive carefully. There's no need to rush."
Bai Ruichen waved to his daughter as well. Seeing Lu Wanzheng turn around and chat with Xiao Qifeng, and watching the two enter the boarding gate, he turned and left. When he walked out of the airport, he didn't know if it was because of the wind blowing in his face or something else, but he raised his hand and gently ran his fingertip across the corner of his eye.
After Xiao Qifeng and Lu Wanzheng boarded the plane, Lu Wanzheng preferred to sit in the window seat and disliked sitting in the aisle seat the most.
Xiao Qifeng looked at Lu Wanzheng, who was looking out the window, and took her hand, placing it on his lap.
Lu Wanzheng's attention was originally focused on the view outside the window, and she didn't notice at first that the man next to her had taken her hand to his side. It wasn't until Lu Wanzheng felt an itch in her palm that she turned her head and looked at the man next to her in confusion.
Why are you playing with my palm?
Xiao Qifeng: "Thank you for earlier."
Xiao Qifeng's nonsensical remark completely baffled Lu Wanzheng. "Mr. Xiao's sudden politeness is quite flattering. Also, what are you thanking me for?"
"Thank you for speaking up for me earlier," which made me realize how important I am to you.
However, he didn't say the last sentence.
Lu Wanzheng seemed to understand what he was talking about. "You did nothing wrong. It's all my dad who's deliberately making trouble for you. Of course I have to help you."
Xiao Qifeng seemed to understand something, and he asked in return, "Then if I'm in the wrong and cause trouble for my father-in-law, whose side will you take?"
Lu Wanzheng blurted out, "You're not that kind of person. You would never cause trouble for my dad for no reason. Even if you did, it would definitely be because my dad provoked you first."
For some reason, Lu Wanzheng felt that Xiao Qifeng would never do anything to provoke her father first.
"I never expected that I would have such a good image in Miss Lu's heart." The words Lu Wanzheng just said were even more pleasant and delightful than when she spoke up for him at the airport.
Since confirming her relationship with Xiao Qifeng, Lu Wanzheng has made it a habit to give him candy and say nice things to make him happy. Naturally, she would say, "My feelings for Mr. Xiao started with his looks and ended with his character. Are you satisfied?"
After speaking, Lu Wanzheng smiled at Xiao Qifeng. This scene made Xiao Qifeng feel that the girl's eyes were as bright as the Milky Way, always attracting him deeply.
"satisfy."
How could he not be satisfied?
Lu Wanzheng likes to sit on the edge of the bed and look out. It's not that she particularly enjoys looking at the scenery, but rather that looking at the scenery outside helps her relax and allows her to calm down and think things through.
Just now, she was thinking about the film festival the day after tomorrow. She had agreed that Xiao Qifeng would accompany her on the red carpet, but there needed to be a reason for that.
So she told them about it.
"You don't need to worry about that. I've invested in 'The Great Path to Success.' I'll go with you as an investor. Besides, the whole internet already knows we're husband and wife, so no one will say anything."
Lu Wanzheng nodded, and quickly realized, "So you were the one who invested so readily back then. I was wondering how I could get my role so easily."
At the time, Wang Xiyou was the female lead, and the Wang family were investors. How could Wang Kun allow himself to dabble in the entertainment industry? He would definitely obstruct him.
Xiao Qifeng said, "I'm just a support; your strength is what makes you shine."
The two exchanged a glance.
The person behind them pressed the service bell, and the flight attendant walked past them, asking if they needed anything.
The two of them had been speaking very softly, so as not to disturb those around them.
"Sleep for a while, I'll wake you up when it's time." He put Lu Wanzheng's head on his shoulder.
That's what he said, but sometimes when Xiao Qifeng saw that Lu Wanzheng was sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear to wake her up. Instead, he would carry her away through a special passage.
Lu Wanzheng nodded.
After several hours of flight, the plane landed.
Lu Wanzheng also woke up.
Xiao Qifeng had told Mu Qinshu about their return to the capital a long time ago.
Mu Qinshu arrived at the airport right on time to wait for the two. As soon as Lu Wanzheng and Xiao Qifeng came out, she saw them and immediately walked towards them.
When Mu Qinshu learned that Lu Wanzheng had found her parents, she was overjoyed for her, and the joy was evident on her face. She pushed past Xiao Qifeng, took Lu Wanzheng's arm, and the two women chatted for a while.
Squeezed aside, Xiao Qifeng could only silently pull his suitcase from behind.
"Mom, why don't you and Dad come with us to N City to meet my parents?" The two sets of parents haven't met yet, so this is a good opportunity for them to meet. The two places are so far apart that it's difficult for them to see each other normally.
Mu Qinshu immediately agreed, "Okay, let me know in advance when you're coming, and ask your father to help finish the company's business as soon as possible."
The three of them got into the car that had been parked at the airport that morning.
Even though Lu Wanzheng was completely covered up, Xiao Qifeng was not. There were plenty of eager reporters at the airport, but fearing Xiao Qifeng's power, they couldn't get forward and could only secretly hide in a corner to take pictures.
However, these reporters were conscientious and didn't say anything out of line; they simply posted photos of the three people online.
Everyone says that marrying into a wealthy family is like entering a melting pot, and the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult. I never expected Lu Wanzheng to have such a good relationship with her mother-in-law.
[Lu Wanzheng is so lucky! She married a handsome and wealthy man, and her mother-in-law is so gentle. I'm so envious!]
I want to know if her mother-in-law came to pick her up from the airport or if the three of them came back together. If it's the former, then Lu Wanzheng is truly blessed! If it's the latter, then she's blessed too!
[It seems Lu Wanzheng hasn't shown any signs of making any public appearances for over a month. Is she planning to retire from the entertainment industry after marrying into a wealthy family?]
[I'm guessing Lu Wanzheng and her husband went on their honeymoon. There's a film festival the day after tomorrow, and Lu Wanzheng will probably come back to attend. I wonder if she'll win any awards.]
Lu Wanzheng had long since stopped paying attention to what was happening online. She told Yao Zijun that Xiao Qifeng would accompany her to the film festival as an investor.
On the other end of the phone, Yao Zijun didn't react at all, only saying that she knew.
