Chapter 191 Showing Affection
Oh, right!
There are still many guests at home!
Both of them forgot about it.
What about her parents and two older brothers? How is she supposed to explain this to them?
Jiang Ruzhen quickly pushed away Lu Mingzheng, who was still nudging her, and said, "I'll be right there."
She wanted to get out of bed and straighten her clothes, which had been ravaged by Lu Mingzheng's large hands.
Lu Mingzheng hugged her tightly, reluctant to let her go. "Ah Zhen, I'll come to your room tonight."
“No, Mei Ling, her parents, and Xie Hui’s mother are all here.”
“I’m not doing anything,” Lu Mingzheng continued to plead.
"No." Jiang Ruzhen pried his hand away and got off the ground to look in the mirror.
Lu Mingzheng followed up and hugged her from behind, kissing her neck like a chick pecking at rice.
Jiang Ruzhen dodged him and laughed, "Lu Mingzheng, why are you being so clingy this time?"
Lu Mingzheng froze, as if all his strength had been drained. He lowered his arms, rested his head on Jiang Ruzhen's neck, and sighed.
"I only took half a month off this time. When I go back, I will officially return to the army. It won't be easy to get out again in the future."
"Oh." Jiang Ruzhen responded with an "oh" after a long pause.
Lu Mingzheng knew Jiang Ruzhen was sad, but he truly loved the blue sky of his motherland and the profession he cherished for the rest of his life!
"What...what do you really think?" he asked cautiously.
Jiang Ruzhen didn't react at first, and only came to her senses after letting out an "Ah".
"Anyway, your position is high enough, so I'll visit you more often when I have time."
"Really? Can I submit a relationship report first...?"
Lu Mingzheng was extremely surprised. He never expected Jiang Ruzhen to suggest visiting him. He had always known that Jiang Ruzhen also loved her career and enjoyed it.
He thought that she was busy and he was busy too, and that the two of them would hardly see each other afterward.
“Sure!” Jiang Ruzhen nodded.
Lu Mingzheng happily tightened his arms, turned Jiang Ruzhen around, and gently kissed her.
"Mom, Uncle Lu, if you don't go over there soon, Grandma and the others will come and catch you." The second son's voice rang out again from outside.
He was forced into this situation; his grandparents, seeing his displeasure, gave him orders.
He dared not disobey, so he had no choice but to come and find someone.
My mom and Uncle Lu are really something. They left the living room in such a mess and then hid away to be all lovey-dovey and affectionate.
He's like a little cabbage in the field, unloved and neglected. He's caught in the middle, suffering all the hardships.
Hearing his second brother urging him repeatedly, Lu Mingzheng cursed angrily.
"Why are you rushing me? Looks like you're having a lot of free time. I should give you a good talking to these days."
"No, I was wrong, Uncle Lu. You can continue, I'll go back and stop my grandma right now." The second son was so frightened that he ran away.
Jiang Ruzhen straightened her clothes with a smile in her eyes, then turned around to help Lu Mingzheng straighten his clothes.
I then noticed that he was wearing only a thin shirt under his cashmere coat.
Jiang Ruzhen said with concern, "Aren't you cold? You're only wearing this much."
Lu Mingzheng grinned mischievously, pulling Jiang Ruzhen's hand to touch his waist and abdomen, "How could you be cold? You're sweating from the heat."
"You filthy scoundrel."
The two smiled at each other and walked hand in hand into the living room.
The second son had never seen the two of them show affection in public like this before, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
She pointed stiffly to the master bedroom on the east side, "Grandma, Grandpa and two uncles are waiting for you inside."
The two seemed oblivious to the second brother's surprised expression and continued walking forward.
Seeing the two walk into the room as if nothing had happened, the second brother quickly pulled Mei Ling to press his ear against the door to eavesdrop.
Mei Ling was very puzzled by the second son's behavior.
"Brother Yi, why don't we go in and listen openly and honestly?"
The second brother shushed, "What if a world war breaks out and affects us two fragile little fish?"
Upon hearing this, Mei Ling realized that what Brother Yi said made perfect sense.
Xin Xin and Lao Si are not here.
It seemed like the two of them were the lowest-ranking members of the family.
So she followed the second sister's example and pressed her ear against the door to eavesdrop.
Jiang Ruzhen and Lu Mingzheng made a dazzling entrance together, almost blinding the Jiang family members.
Jiang Zhengxiao pretended to cover his eyes, peeking out through his fingers, and teased.
"My goodness, which two celebrities have graced my humble abode?! I was caught off guard and suddenly got a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)."
Zhou Qing pursed her lips and muttered under her breath, "Inappropriate conduct..."
Jiang Zhengxiao glared at her, and Zhou Qing immediately shut her mouth.
The eldest son's tuition fees for studying abroad were all borrowed by the family, and the speed was incredibly fast, even exceeding the expected amount.
Recently, her admiration for the head of the household has been flowing like a never-ending river.
He made all the decisions, and she tried her best to tolerate anything that displeased the head of the household.
Jiang Nian'an and Jiang Zhengyu looked at the two with satisfaction, their eyes narrowed into slits with laughter.
Only Tian Rong, with a stern face, glanced at the two's tightly clasped hands and asked.
When did you start dating?
Lu Mingzheng wanted to step forward and take all the blame, but Jiang Ruzhen spoke first.
"It's officially decided today."
She's right. In the past, she always let things take their course and never made relationships a top priority.
It has always been a state of being dispensable.
But today, the moment she saw Lu Mingzheng, she knew she was doomed.
These days, every night when I can't sleep, a surge of longing wells up within me.
There's the passionate harmony when we're whispering sweet nothings in each other's ears, and the sincere love and devotion I feel for him. It seems that all the problems I used to care about are no longer problems.
She would never do it for another man.
But for Lu Mingzheng's sake, she could try to connect with, get to know, and get along with his family.
Once she understands her own heart, she will never be indecisive or wishy-washy in her actions.
"Today?" Tian Rong repeated incredulously.
“Yeah, before, I was just stringing Lu Mingzheng along and playing around with him. But today I’ve made up my mind, I want to be serious with this man.”
"You brat, you really dare to say anything!" Tian Rong got up angrily, wanting to slap Jiang Ruzhen.
What nonsense are you spouting in front of Lu Mingzheng?
What if Xiao Lu loses face, making everyone feel awkward?
As expected, the slap didn't land on Jiang Ruzhen, but instead landed on Lu Mingzheng.
Tian Rong was surprised and tried to withdraw his hand, but Lu Mingzheng grabbed it tightly.
"Auntie, please don't hit Ah Zhen, it will hurt me. If you're really angry, hit me, I'm tough."
Lu Mingzheng playfully shook Tian Rong's arm, and the old lady couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"If you keep spoiling her like this now, she'll be riding on your neck after you get married."
Lu Mingzheng immediately raised his hand to indicate, "I'm willing, I'm willing to let her ride..."
He realized something was wrong as soon as he said it, and his face flushed red. All the Jiang family members around him turned their heads away with unnatural expressions.
The second brother, who was eavesdropping outside the door, clapped his hands loudly in excitement.
"My Uncle Lu is amazing! They're showing off their love to the heavens!"
The second brother looked up and roared as someone smacked him on the head.
"Who hit me? Big...Big brother...why were you eavesdropping too?"
The eldest brother, his face unchanged, shushed her through the door, "Shut up."
"Pfft—" Jiang Ruzhen couldn't help but burst out laughing first, followed by who knows who else, and then a third...
One by one, the people in the room burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere instantly melted away.
