Chapter 167 167 Please give me more advice, boyfriend
Compared to Lu Jiaze's panic, Lu Hongzhe was much calmer. He looked at the two of them and asked, "Are you still discussing work during the New Year?"
"Everyone is busy on weekdays, and we just happened to have some free time during the New Year, so we discussed the next steps for Youbei." Jiang Lili did not deny it. After all, the reason why Cheng Yuntian did not go home was too personal, and she probably didn't want others to know.
"Shall we go over and set off the fireworks now, or do you have other plans?" Lu Hongzhe did not continue discussing this topic and instead asked for their opinions.
"Yes, we can't set off fireworks here, right?" Jiang Lili was not very clear about the regulations on setting off fireworks.
"Well, I know a great spot. I'll take you there." Lu Hongzhe said, then remembered that Cheng Yuntian also had a car, so he continued to ask, "Would you like to sit directly with me, or drive your own car?"
"I'll drive behind you." Cheng Yuntian made a decision quickly. Because of Old Cheng's recent actions, she felt that she was almost disgusted with men.
"Okay." Lu Hongzhe calmly got into his car. After making sure the three people behind him had gotten into another car, Lu Jiaze asked his question: "Brother, who was that person? She's like a Cheng Yaojin who showed up unexpectedly. Are we still going to continue with the plan? Will she ruin your plans for today?"
"Of course she will continue. She is the boss of Tongqu Players and Lili's most trusted partner." After all, in addition to Tongqu Players, they are also tied together with Baby Paradise and Youbei. Lu Hongzhe thought that sometimes he was actually quite jealous of Cheng Yuntian.
"Then I should just take Tongtong with me for now, okay?" Lu Jiaze asked tentatively. After all, he was not familiar with that person at all.
"Well, you just need to take good care of Tongtong." Lu Hongzhe nodded. As for Cheng Yuntian, she thought she should be tactful.
"That's good." Lu Jiaxing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the people in the car behind them were also discussing something, but the issue they were discussing was related to fireworks. Jiang Qitong looked at Jiang Lili and said, "Sister Lili, do we really not need to buy fireworks?"
"If they have prepared it, we don't have to." Given Lu Hongzhe's personality, since he asked them to set off fireworks, he must have prepared these things in advance.
"Okay." Jiang Qitong's tone was a little depressed.
Seeing her disappointed look, Jiang Lili was puzzled, and then hesitantly said: "Then should we go buy some more?"
"Okay, I want some more fairy wands." Jiang Qitong's tone instantly became cheerful. Jiang Lili now understood the reason for her disappointment. Was she afraid that she wouldn't like what Lu Hongzhe prepared? Thinking that he was driving, she called Lu Jiaze and told him that they needed to buy some fireworks that Tongtong liked.
"Okay, then we'll wait for you at the intersection ahead." Lu Jiaze glanced at Lu Hongzhe and said gloatingly, "Tongtong seems to think she doesn't like the fireworks you prepared. It seems your sister-in-law is not easy to please!"
Lu Hongzhe ignored him. He was just thinking about what was going to happen next. But the people next to him were chattering like a sparrow: "Brother, are you going to tell both parents about you and Lili?"
"I'm fine with either. It depends on her decision." Lu Hongzhe said this before suddenly remembering something. His expression softened. "Are you so sure she'll agree to me?"
"That's my intuition. Do you think she's so smart that she wouldn't be able to detect your thoughts? The fact that she didn't stop you from getting close to her is already a tacit consent." The two of them have known each other for so many years, and Lu Jiaze still understands this. Just like after they were divided into different classes before, she directly and quickly cut off their excessive contact.
"Really?" Although he said uncertainly, the raised corners of his lips showed his good mood.
"Okay, stop showing off. Don't force me to say things you don't want to hear. Let's go, they are back." Lu Jiaze saw Cheng Yuntian's car in the rearview mirror.
"Um."
After buying the fireworks, Jiang Qitong became very happy and anxious along the way, and kept muttering, "How long will it take? Why hasn't it arrived yet?"
"Tongtong, be quiet." Jiang Lili patted her shoulder.
"Am I not too excited?" Jiang Qitong stuck out her tongue at her a little embarrassedly. After more than half an hour, the car in front finally stopped. At this time, it was almost dark.
"It's so dark here." This is an undeveloped area, and the only lights around are the headlights of two cars.
"Then just put it where the car lights are shining." Jiang Lili comforted.
"Okay." Jiang Qitong said and followed Cheng Yuntian to get the fireworks. It was at this time that they realized that they had forgotten to buy a lighter.
"Brother Lu, did you bring a lighter?" Jiang Qitong was very familiar with the Lu brothers, so she asked directly.
"I brought it. We also bought a lot of varieties here. Do you want to come with me?" Lu Jiaze said and looked at Jiang Qitong.
"Okay, then let's go together. Sister Lili and Sister Cheng are still waiting for me." Jiang Qitong urged.
"I'll be right there." Lu Jiaze said, then turned around and glanced at Lu Hongzhe. It was his turn to go on stage next.
In recent years, Cheng Yuntian has been following Old Cheng to visit relatives and friends during the Spring Festival. She almost forgot when was the last time she set off fireworks. Seeing the pile of fireworks behind her, she joined them directly.
Just as Jiang Lili was about to step forward to join them, Lu Hongzhe's voice came from behind: "Lili."
"Hmm?" Jiang Lili looked back at him, waiting for his next words.
"This is a New Year's gift for you." Lu Hongzhe said as he handed her a small box, which looked like a jewelry box.
Jiang Lili was a little surprised, then said a little embarrassedly: "But I didn't prepare any gifts?"
Lu Hongzhe was touched by her words. His eyes were full of smiles and his tone was gentle: "This is not a gift exchange. I just want to give you a gift."
"Thank you." Jiang Lili took the box from him and opened it. She found a bracelet inside. The shining light on it seemed to tell her what it was made of. She frowned and looked at the person opposite her: "This is too valuable. I can't accept it."
"What should be measured for a gift is the thought behind it, not its value. Lili, don't reject me." Lu Hongzhe said with a double meaning.
Jiang Lili couldn't help but clench her hands holding the box, and a guess flashed through her mind. At this time, the voice next to her continued: "Lili, I originally planned to wait until you graduate to talk to me about some things, but I seem to have overestimated myself." At this point, Lu Hongzhe couldn't help but smile bitterly.
At this moment, Jiang Lili felt her heart throbbing. For a moment, she hesitated whether she should stop him from saying the next words. At this moment, the fireworks trio next to them had already started lighting the fireworks, and even Jiang Qitong on the other end was calling her, "Sister Lili, come quickly."
Before she could react, she felt someone grab her wrist. She lowered her head to look at the hand that held hers. She felt her entire reaction become dull. She only heard the person next to her say, "No need to go over there. I can also take you to set off fireworks."
Next, Jiang Lili was like a human puppet, completely led by Lu Hongzhe. Her head was dizzy the whole time and she didn't remember how long she had walked. She only remembered that Lu Hongzhe handed her a burning match and signaled her to light the fuse.
Jiang Lili had many questions in her mind, but her hand was quicker than her brain and she lit the fuse first. Then, with a "bang bang bang" sound, she was pulled back by the person next to her. She was still a little confused until the person next to her reminded her: "Look at the sky."
The fireworks in the sky were very bright, and patterns could be vaguely seen. Jiang Lili was surprised and curious at the same time: "Is it prepared for me?"
"What?" The sound of fireworks was too loud. Lu Hongzhe lowered his head and put his ear close to her. The distance between them made Jiang Lili's ears start to heat up, and her whole body felt numb. This feeling was very strange, making her fall in love and resist at the same time.
The person who didn't get a response for a long time turned to look at her, and his tone was gentler than usual: "Lili, what did you say just now?"
"Did I say this was prepared for me?" Jiang Lili looked up at the fireworks that were still being set off.
"Yes, it's prepared for you. It's the first time I do this, so there are some flaws. It will get better next time." Lu Hongzhe said.
Hearing him say "next time", Jiang Lili's lips widened with a smile, and she repeated his words: "Next time?"
"Yes, next time. So, Lili, are you willing to be with me and give me another chance to set off fireworks for you next time?" Lu Hongzhe said and looked at her steadily.
She was still hesitant at first, but when she saw his fist hanging at his waist, she suddenly felt relieved and chuckled: "You look nervous?"
The person who was seen through coughed twice in embarrassment, then nodded: "A little bit."
"If I agree, will you be even more nervous?" Jiang Lili smiled cunningly.
"Probably." Lu Hongzhe said and spread out his palm towards her. The wetness inside proved his nervousness just now.
This was a side of Lu Hongzhe that was hard to see. Jiang Lili couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and whispered, "Then you can be more nervous now."
Lu Hongzhe was stunned for a moment, then looked at her, suppressing his emotions: "Are you agreeing?"
"You've prepared so much. It would be unreasonable for me to refuse." Jiang Lili said this before she realized the fireworks had stopped. The person opposite her suddenly became serious. "Lili, if this is the reason, you still have the right to refuse. I arranged all this simply because I hope you like it."
Seeing his serious expression, Jiang Lili realized that there was something wrong with what she had said. She quickly explained, "Brother Hongzhe, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that my heartbeat told me the answer, and my heartbeat came from the surprise you prepared and from you."
Her words instantly softened the originally serious man: "Then from today on, you are my girlfriend."
Jiang Lili smiled and stretched out her right hand towards him: "Then please give me your guidance, boyfriend."
