Cheng Bin patted his chest and said, "I have enough money to treat you to a banquet."
After saying that, he ran like a rabbit, fearing that Zhou Lanping would ask him to get to the bottom of it again and insist on knowing where the money came from. It would be difficult for him to answer then, so he simply didn't give Zhou Lanping a chance.
"Jingjing, look at your uncle."
Liu Liang stared at the sky in silence.
Finally I noticed her presence. How long has she been standing here? One hour, or two hours?
"Mom, I'm hungry. I'll eat first."
Liu Liang picked up the chopsticks and ate the food on the table. She was so greasy that even the dishes were cold.
Zhou Lanping then remembered that the meal was ready, but they had not eaten yet.
"Oh, your uncle Cheng hasn't eaten either, what should I do?"
How would Liu Liang know what to do? If she hadn’t eaten, she could just come back and eat. She wouldn’t die from skipping one or two meals.
She now regrets why she found such a stepfather for herself. It would be fine if she just lacked intelligence, but now even her mother's IQ seems to be a little behind.
Liu Liang finished her meal silently, then went back to her room, intending to stay indoors and not let the two of them get too close to each other.
Cheng Bin, who is always quick to act, came back and had already booked a hotel. He had booked more than 20 tables and was afraid that it was not enough, so he asked for a few more tables to be left. If there were not enough, he could add more tables and it would not be so chaotic and make people unhappy.
"That's too much," Zhou Lanping sighed, "Why don't you ask me if I have more than twenty tables of friends and family?"
She didn’t, really didn’t.
She didn't have many relatives at home, so the only people she could invite were a few people she had a good relationship with, including Qin Hong, Grandma Wang's family, Ma Qiang's family, and her colleagues at school. Oh, yes, Liu Lele's family also had to be included. In total, three or four tables would probably be enough.
"It's okay, it's better to have more than less."
Cheng Bin held Zhou Lanping's hand and said, "When you come home with me, we'll have a big party."
Zhou Lanping really wanted to say forget it, but she was afraid to hear Cheng Bin say that. She despised him for asking for food and it was embarrassing.
Alas, it is so difficult to be a human being these days.
And she still had the audacity to inform everyone one by one that she was getting married, her second marriage.
She originally thought that everyone would laugh at her, after all, remarriage was not a glorious thing, but surprisingly, no one laughed at her. Grandma Wang even held her hand and said that this was a good marriage and her parents would feel at ease in the future.
It was actually at this time that Zhou Lanping realized that only those who truly care about you in this world will hope that you live a better life than before.
"Your stepfather seems to be a pretty good person." Liu Lele was swinging her legs under the table and eating melon seeds.
"She's very pretty."
"fine."
Although Liu Liang said this, she was actually satisfied in her heart. After all, this was chosen by her, and she still trusted her eyes and was not so blind that she could not see.
"You're not lazy, are you?"
Liu Liang also grabbed a handful of melon seeds in her hand.
"Next year I'll be a sophomore in high school. I jumped from high school to sophomore in a flash. There's a year of classes in between, so just don't waste it."
"Am I the lazy type?"
Liu Lele tossed another melon seed into his mouth. "I work very hard. Every day I get up earlier than a chicken, sleep later than a dog, eat worse than a pig, and work less than a cow. I taught myself all the classes for the second half of my sophomore year, and I can do all the math problems. I also found a teacher to help me with English. Although my English isn't as good as yours, it wasn't in vain."
She raised her little face and narrowed her eyes, looking extremely proud.
"Lele, Liu Lele!"
Suddenly, Liu Lele seemed to hear someone calling her name.
She turned her head and when she saw someone not far away, she quickly waved her hand.
"Sun Qing, I'm here."
A girl ran over, followed by several people.
Liu Lele was originally very happy to meet a good friend. They got along well in the first year of high school and were planning to continue their friendship. However, in the end, a few more people joined him.
Liu Lele still doesn't like it.
Liu Lele secretly tugged at the corner of Liu Liang's clothes, meaning that the person was coming.
Liu Jing knew it. She could smell the disgusting odor from a distance, as well as the sound of footsteps that she had been tired of hearing all her life.
"By the way, Lele, what are you doing here? Jiajia is treating us today. Did you also know the news in advance?"
That Sun Qing asked stupidly.
Liu Lele, who was also shocked, almost choked on his own saliva.
How much Liu Lele deserves that bite of food.
"No," she forced a smile, but she was actually rolling her eyes in her heart. Even if she went home and had to eat air, she would not eat a single bite of Xu Jiajia's food. Really, they were not familiar with each other.
"So what are you doing here?"
If you say he is stupid, then he is stupid. Sun Qing still insists on asking. Doesn’t she feel that the current atmosphere is very wrong?
"Come to the wedding banquet, my aunt is getting married."
Liu Lele ate another melon seed. Oh, and then she took a bag of wedding candy from the table.
"This is for you."
"Thank you." Sun Qing took it and was very happy.
"By the way, who is your aunt? Why haven't I heard my mother mention her?" They both lived quite close to each other, but I haven't heard that Liu Lele had an aunt who got married?
"Her aunt is my mother."
Liu Liang met Sun Qing's eyes indifferently.
"Your mother?"
Sun Qing's eyes popped out.
Her mother is getting married, what kind of marriage is this?
"My mother married me a stepfather. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Liu Liang reached out her hand to Liu Lele, and Liu Lele gave Liu Liang a few of the melon kernels she had peeled, while she continued to peel them happily.
"hehe……"
Sun Qing smiled awkwardly. Other people kept their second marriages secret, but Liu Jing's generous admission left them speechless.
I can't express congratulations, and I can't express sarcasm either.
Anyway, I just don’t know what to say, and since I don’t know, there’s no need to say anything.
"Jia Jia, let's go."
Sun Qing turned around and saw Xu Jiajia still standing behind her, and couldn't help but urge her.
Xu Jiajia had a gloomy face, as if someone had snatched her cake.
Even Sun Qing was puzzled. He was fine just now, why did his face look so long now?
Zhou Lanping was talking with Mother Liu and Qin Hong. The three women together were a real drama. It was obvious that they sincerely wished Zhou Lanping a happy remarriage. Mother Liu said something to Qin Hong, who glanced at Zhou Lanping secretly. Then the two understood each other and were laughing at something.
Zhou Lanping felt a little embarrassed by their laughter, so he quickly made an excuse to go to the bathroom and tidied his clothes, as he still had to make a toast later.
Really, she couldn't help but curse Cheng Bin again.
