When Cheng Qicai saw Lu Qi again, it was Valentine's Day. She bumped into the two of them in the neighborhood and was slightly taken aback.
Cheng Qicai stared blankly at the couple, arms linked and leaning affectionately against each other, and called out, "Sister? Brother Lu?"
"Seven Colors!" The two greeted her, and Yun Suni looked a little embarrassed.
"Who are you...?" Cheng Qicai asked hesitantly.
However, it's obvious without asking that the two have made up.
“Yes! We’re back together.” Lu Qi nodded, his hand sliding down to take Yun Suni’s hand.
Cheng Qicai's gaze also fell on their intertwined hands.
Cheng Qicai pouted, "Did you two make up just to torture each other with your love?"
Yun Suni smiled faintly, a little shyly, "Thank you, we've made up."
"That's great!" Cheng Qicai was genuinely happy for them.
Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, she winked and teased, "Will we hear good news about your marriage soon? And then have two nephews in three years..."
"What nonsense are you talking about! It's not even true yet." Yun Suni feigned anger, but her face was already flushed with embarrassment, adding to her charm.
"Brother Lu, you'd better do your best!" Seeing Yun Suni's face getting redder and redder, Cheng Qicai felt even happier.
“Okay, I will.” Lu Qi nodded seriously.
After exchanging a few more words with them, the three parted ways.
That evening, Cheng Qicai unexpectedly received a call from Lu Qi.
Cheng Qicai answered the phone with a puzzled look, "Hello, Brother Lu?"
“Yes, Seven Colors,” Lu Qi said. “I have something I’d like to ask you for help with.”
"What's wrong? You mean Brother Lu?"
"Here's the thing, your sister and I have almost made up. I'm going to propose to Su Ni next weekend." Lu Qi dropped a bombshell.
Huh? The joke I made when we bumped into each other this afternoon was actually true.
Cheng Qicai was surprised at how fast they were moving.
"Have you resolved your issues?"
"Alright," Lu Qi replied, "Thanks to you, otherwise I might still be on the wrong path."
Cheng Qicai politely denied it, "No, it's good that you're okay. It's just that in my mind, the process of arguing and making up was like a game of checkers, it was over in an instant, it felt so fast."
"It's not fast. Before my parents came along, the original plan was to propose before the Lunar New Year, and we're already talking about marriage now. So it's still too slow."
Okay, I know you're in a hurry, but you're being way too hasty. Shouldn't there be a six-month negotiation period according to the procedure?
Cheng Qicai suddenly realized they had gone off-topic, and she said, "So what do I need to do?"
"Just bring Su Ni to the proposal venue. I'll have my secretary discuss the specific procedures with you." Lu Qi's tone suddenly became serious. "Thank you, Qi Cai."
"fine."
Cheng Qicai was still somewhat surprised after hanging up the phone.
Is her sister and Lu Qi about to get married?
It's somewhat unbelievable, yet perfectly logical.
It's a really strange feeling now, where fiction and reality intersect, creating something bizarre and dreamlike.
For several days in a row, she felt like she was walking on cotton. It wasn't until the weekend that Lu Qi's secretary took her to the proposal venue.
She wasn't the only one there; Yun Rucheng, Song Luo, and some of her friends from Yun Su Ni's birthday party were also present.
Cheng Qicai walked towards them, "Uncle and Aunt!"
"Seven colors," Yun Rucheng and the others greeted.
"Brother Lu, this is a big investment! Building such a huge set." Cheng Qicai looked at the people coming and going, who seemed to be finishing up the entire set.
Someone who didn't know better might think they were setting up a movie set.
"I told Lu Qi not to do these things, but he insisted on doing them." Although her words were a complaint, the smile in her eyes showed that she was happy at the moment.
Seeing that her son-in-law cares about her daughter, she must feel good.
To Cheng Qicai's surprise, all the designs here, from the overall shape to the small drinks, had been reviewed by Lu Qi.
Cheng Qicai understood immediately; no wonder her aunt was so happy.
Cheng Qicai followed Lu Qi's design and went through the process.
Her task was to bring Yun Suni away from home, while the others were to hand the flowers to Lu Qi, who would then walk towards her with the bouquets.
Then he led her to the center of the venue and proposed.
Countless drones were also conducting drills in the air. At first, Cheng Qicai thought they were just figures of Lu Qi and Yuan Su Ni, but as she watched, she realized that they were depicting the process of Yun Su Ni and Lu Qi getting to know each other, meeting, and falling in love.
It's just like a movie!
As for other details, Cheng Qicai couldn't see them yet. The scene was still just a framework. She heard that the roses were only air-freighted from abroad the night before Lu Qi proposed to ensure their freshness.
Not to mention the others, all of which were carefully selected by Lu Qi with utmost care.
When Cheng Qicai heard about arranging roses all night, she thought that while it was romantic, it was also really tough for working people who had to work overtime all night.
But when she heard that the pay for just one night of flower arranging was three thousand, she instantly burst into tears of envy.
If it weren't for the mission she had to complete, Cheng Qicai would have loved to work an extra night.
I initially felt quite empathetic towards them, but it turns out I was the clown myself.
Putting aside her regret, Cheng Qicai had dinner with the others and then returned home.
When friends have good news, those close to them are naturally infected by the happiness.
The next day when Lin Fengjie went to work, he looked at Cheng Qicai, who seemed to be in a good mood all day, and asked, "Wait, what are you so happy about all day?"
