Chapter 899 Qixi Festival Engagement
"Taking a plane?"
"No, I'll drive myself."
"Dragon Claw Hand!"
Lu Yuanqiu turned around abruptly, pinched Bai Qingxia's soft breasts with both hands, and even made a "bouncy" sound effect before running away with satisfaction.
Bai Qingxia chased after him, waving her fists in exasperation. But when she saw Lu Tian come out of the room, she stopped abruptly, put her hands in front of her and resumed her calm demeanor, though her ears were red. This scene made Lu Yuanqiu, who had fled to the bathroom, laugh like an idiot.
He lifted the toilet lid and closed the door: "Wait until I've finished clearing out the inventory."
"Oh," Bai Qingxia responded, then greeted Lu Tian softly, "Good morning, Uncle Lu."
"Ah, Xia is here." Lu Tian walked towards the refrigerator with his hair in the same mess as his son's, too sleepy to keep his eyes open.
"Uncle Lu, my dad is getting married."
"Huh?!" Lu Tian, the muscular man, turned around.
Bai Qingxia quickly tightened her lips, genuinely feeling that Uncle Lu was naturally humorous.
...
This was a road trip. After arriving in the town, the group checked into the same hotel as before. Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia still had two rooms, but Bai Songzhe and Zhang Ru only booked one room this time.
To Bai Qingxia and Lu Yuanqiu's amusement, the two of them became embarrassed when they were at the front desk.
The next morning, Zhang Ru walked out of the room arm in arm with Bai Songzhe, looking more petite and dependent than ever before. Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia watched this scene silently from behind, wondering what Bai Qingxia was thinking. In Lu Yuanqiu's mind, the phrase "still sharp as ever" came to mind.
As expected, an old Ferrari is still a Ferrari; it's not just the exterior that's sturdy, but also the engine.
After bringing Zhang Ru's parents back to Lucheng, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia's Dragon Boat Festival holiday officially ended. Bai Songzhe chose a wedding date, June 7th, which happened to coincide with the day of the college entrance examination.
The wedding procession encountered some obstacles on the road, but it didn't affect anything. Many people came to the wedding, including Sister Li, whom I hadn't seen in a long time.
"I really didn't expect to be able to attend your father's wedding before attending your engagement party," Zhang Li said with a smile to Lu Yuanqiu and his wife.
She has gained a lot of weight, and her waist has grown a size larger. Her monthly salary at Lu's headquarters has also increased to eight thousand. Sister Li is very satisfied with this and has declined Lu Yuanqiu's special treatment in private many times. In her opinion, it's not about how much money you have, but about stability.
She was accompanied by a girl who looked to be in junior high school today.
Lu Yuanqiu bent down to look at the little girl, raised his hand and gently pinched her nose: "Xiao Hui, do you still remember your brother?"
The little girl I met in the countryside back then has now become a junior high school student in Lucheng. She shyly hid behind her mother and nodded to Lu Yuanqiu with a blush: "I remember."
The little girl is more familiar with Bai Qingxia because Bai Qingxia has tutored her many times over the phone. This makes Sister Li proud in front of her daughter, after all, Bai Qingxia is a high-achieving student whom she "raised".
"Sister Li, please sit at my parents' table. Our friends have arrived," Lu Yuanqiu said, while also giving Bai Qingxia a meaningful look.
Zheng Ye arrived, accompanied by Zheng Yifeng and Ye Hui.
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia stepped forward.
"Uncle Zheng, Aunt Ye."
Zheng Ye and Ye Hui both responded with smiles. They were dressed quite formally today. Lu Yuanqiu hadn't seen Ye Hui for quite a while; the last time he saw her seemed to be back in high school.
"It's really rare that the three of them could get together without knowing the relationship between their elders," Zheng Ye said, turning to Ye Hui.
Ye Hui smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's all fate. Some people are destined to be together, while others are not. It was all predetermined from the beginning."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Ye's smile took on a hint of melancholy.
The couple was still arm in arm, but their actual relationship was probably not as harmonious as it appeared. Zheng Yifeng had been in Zhucheng for the past few days and didn't know the details. When he returned home, he noticed that they were talking normally, at least not as cold as they had been a few days ago. But what they were really thinking was something only the couple knew.
Lu Yuanqiu learned from Bai Songzhe that Zheng Ye brought back a lot of cutting-edge technology he had learned in the United States after returning to China, and officially took over the shares in Daohe from his younger brother, restoring his status as the highest shareholder of Daohe.
Zheng Yifeng's second uncle is very trustworthy. Lu Yuanqiu suspects that this second uncle is a complete brother-obsessed brother. Not only has he been a worker for his brother in the company for so many years, but he has also taken good care of Zheng Yifeng and his mother for a long time. In addition, he is a nephew-showing fanatic.
It seems that these two brothers wouldn't be able to do these things unless their love for each other reached a certain level.
But in other words, does this really mean that Zheng Ye possesses a charm that Lu Yuanqiu and others cannot see from their perspective?
But why would someone like that spend most of his life fixated on Li Yuntan?
Or perhaps Li Yuntan was also a very charming woman back then?
A highly educated woman, primarily a doctor, also a part-time writer, from a well-off family, and the unrequited love of both Zhang Zhisheng and Zheng Ye…
The Zheng family and the Lu family sat at the same table. Lu Tian, the supermarket owner, naturally had nothing to talk about with Zheng Ye, and the two had hardly ever met. The conversation between the two families naturally turned to the topic of the two couples' engagements.
Lu Tian flipped through the calendar and said, "I think it should be Qixi Festival, August 2nd. Why do young people these days choose Qixi Festival? They get married on Valentine's Day, it's quite normal."
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia said they had no objections, and Zheng Yifeng waved his phone to signal to everyone, "Teacher Su also has no objections."
Su Xiaoya smiled and said, "Then it's happily decided! The children will get engaged on Qixi Festival!"
She and her husband clapped, and Zhang Li and her daughter followed suit. Zheng Ye and Ye Hui, however, simply nodded slightly with faint smiles on their faces. Lu Tian and Su Xiaoya, unaware of the truth behind the couple's relationship, only thought that this family was truly introverted.
As the wedding began, Bai Qingxia, watching her father and Zhang Ru make their grand entrance, took out her phone and snapped many photos.
After taking the photos, she looked down and suddenly felt a little sad, even though she had always supported her father and Zhang Ru being together.
Lu Yuanqiu saw Bai Qingxia crying. The girl silently shed tears, picked up her phone and continued taking pictures, holding the phone very close to her face, as if to block her eyes.
Lu Yuanqiu handed him a piece of paper.
Zheng Ye turned his head and looked at the stage for a moment. He also took out his phone and found a group photo of four people that he had carefully saved. The photo was a bit old and showed two couples.
He then turned around and showed Ye Hui the photo on his phone. Ye Hui looked down, her expression somewhat moved.
Inside, she was wearing a beautiful wedding dress, Zheng Ye was wearing a suit, and Bai Songzhe and Luo Ran were next to them. The two couples took a happy photo together at the wedding.
That was in 1995, and a year later both families would face a huge change.
