Luo Jiuyan saw the message during his lunch break.
He was completely shocked by the message sent by Duochou.
He never imagined that his grandfather would go to the Xiao family to offer a betrothal gift without telling him.
Although he knew that his grandfather was not a stingy person, he was still worried that if the betrothal gift was too little, he would be disliked by the two grandfathers and grandmothers of the Xiao family.
It's okay if he dislikes his grandfather, but if he is implicated, he probably won't be able to get married until he is 35.
Luo Jiuyan was struggling over whether or not to ask his senior brother about the situation.
He was also worried that things had developed to an irreversible point as he had expected.
Just when he was about to make a video call to Duochou, Xiao Qingran suddenly walked over with his cell phone in hand.
"My grandma called. She wants to talk to you."
Luo Jiuyan's heart suddenly jumped up.
I always feel like he is being put on trial at this moment.
The old lady called so soon, specifically asking to speak to him. Does this mean that the negotiations with his grandfather had broken down?
The moment the phone fell into his hand, Luo Jiuyan had the illusion of being executed.
But he still subconsciously picked up the phone and looked at the video call on the phone.
Before he could speak, the old lady's voice came over.
"Xiao Luo, tomorrow is Ranran's birthday. She can't come back because she's on a show. You're the only one with her, so you must celebrate for her properly. We've prepared a birthday present for her. We'll wait for you to come back so we can celebrate her another birthday. We've already ordered a cake, and it will be delivered to the production team tomorrow. Go see which kids are close to Ranran and have some fun together."
Luo Jiuyan didn't expect that the old lady came to him because of Xiao Qingran's birthday.
I felt relieved immediately.
But the next second, the old lady suddenly mentioned Grandpa Luo again.
"You should know that your grandfather came to our house today to give the betrothal gifts! Although the wedding date is a bit urgent, it doesn't matter. Just take good care of Ranran, and leave the rest to us."
Luo Jiuyan responded in a daze, and chatted with the old lady about Xiao Qingran. Half an hour later, the old lady hung up the video.
Luo Jiuyan stared at the phone in his hand in a daze, his mind in a mess.
So, his worries before were completely groundless?
The wedding date has been set, so it must have been agreed.
Then why didn't his grandfather even call him or send him a message?
It made him worry for a long time, but it turned out that he was just overthinking it.
At this moment, he was grateful to the old man from the bottom of his heart.
However, since the old man didn't tell him that the wedding date had been set, he might as well pretend that he knew nothing.
He wanted to see what his grandfather was up to.
In the end, the marriage will definitely require him and Xiao Qingran to be present.
After returning the phone to Xiao Qingran, Luo Jiuyan found something to wrap up the birthday present he had prepared for Xiao Qingran tomorrow. He also sent a message to Shen Zhuo, asking him to speak to Director Guo about celebrating Xiao Qingran's birthday tomorrow and see if they could hold a livestream birthday party themed around Xiao Qingran's birthday. This had to be done in secret, without Xiao Qingran knowing.
Shen Zhuo quickly got up from the bed and went to find Director Guo.
In the afternoon, the dating variety show continued as usual.
Chen Zhuo quietly made an OK gesture to Luo Jiuyan.
This afternoon, the guests were having fun and Director Guo didn't know where he went.
However, since Director Guo often disappeared, no one cared.
Director Guo only showed up at the end of the live broadcast in the evening.
Xiao Qingran found her and asked worriedly, "Is Wei Zishu causing trouble for the production team again?"
Ever since Wei Zishu witnessed Xiao Qingran's power, he hasn't appeared since. Director Guo also didn't mention whether Wei Zishu had caused her any trouble.
Xiao Qingran was always worried.
After all, Wei Zishu is a person with a serious mental illness.
He might actually do something that would be detrimental to the program crew.
Director Guo was stunned for a moment. "Oh, that's not the case. It's said that after that night, Young Master Wei quit the food variety show and returned to Imperial Capital. I was worried he'd cause trouble for me, but there's been no movement so far. I think he's either forgotten about it. Or he's planning something big to surprise us."
Xiao Qingran glanced at Director Guo again, and her eyes suddenly fixed.
She saw that Director Guo had been in a bloody disaster recently, and it was related to Wei Zishu.
"Please be careful during this period. It's best if you don't go anywhere during the live broadcast this week."
Director Guo waved his hand dismissively. "There's so much going on, who knows when I'll need to leave to do something else. If Young Master Wei really wants to deal with me, even if I hide in the production crew, I might not be able to escape."
Xiao Qingran thought for a moment and took out a peace amulet: "Then wear this amulet close to your body. Don't take it off except when taking a bath."
Director Guo wanted to refuse. After all, she only believed in science and didn't believe in superstition.
But Xiao Qingran's godlike skills from that night suddenly surfaced in his mind. Director Guo reached out and took it.
"Okay, I will do as you say. I will wear it all the time except when I take a shower."
Seeing this, Xiao Qingran felt relieved.
The next day, May 22nd.
As usual, we played games according to the tasks arranged in advance by the director.
However, when it was almost noon, during a certain part of the process, Luo Jiuyan suddenly came to Xiao Qingran with a bouquet of roses in his hand.
"Ran'er, happy birthday!"
Then, all the guests sent their blessings to Xiao Qingran.
Director Guo came over pushing a birthday cake with more than ten layers.
Xiao Qingran: "..."
She almost forgot her birthday in this life.
When Xiao Qingran saw the candle with the number 18 on it, she was stunned for a moment: "It seems like I'm celebrating my 20th birthday!"
All the guests burst into laughter!
Director Guo even laughed so hard that he held his belly as he explained, "As women, we celebrate our normal birthdays every year unless we are under 18. After we turn 18, we celebrate our 18th birthday every year. This means we are always 18 years old."
Xiao Qingran: "..."
This is the first time I've heard of this.
But, you’re always eighteen!
She can maintain her current appearance forever.
I'm just afraid that after ten or twenty years, if her appearance remains unchanged, it will scare these people.
Therefore, at least ten years later, she will leave the secular world and go to the ancient martial arts world.
After all, her appearance is considered normal in the eyes of people in the ancient martial arts world.
"Sister Ran, I wish you will always be eighteen, forever young, and forever beautiful."
Huang Yawei placed a beautifully packaged small box in Xiao Qingran's hand.
Seeing this, other guests gave their gifts.
When it was Luo Jiuyan's turn.
"I want to announce a good news. The wedding date for Ran'er and I has been set. Everyone is welcome to attend our wedding."
