After having lunch and chatting for a while at the Ding family's house, even if Lu Ziyin was thick-skinned, she was too embarrassed to stay there any longer.
Ding Kemeng wanted to ask him to stay a little longer, but the words just wouldn't come out.
Ding Kemeng didn't return until Lu Ziyin had gone quite a distance, her mind still wandering.
Seeing that his daughter was not in a good mood, Mr. Ding assumed that she was unhappy because of her birthday. Not wanting to cause her any more trouble, he said goodbye to his wife and went to work again.
After leaving the Ding family, Lu Ziyin did not linger and went straight home.
After making a phone call to check on her mother's health as usual, Lu Ziyin turned on her computer and continued drawing.
It wasn't until evening that Lu's father and the others returned.
As soon as Lu Zichen got home, he didn't rest. He went straight to the pet room to find Ruan Ruan.
I don't know how Lu Zichen fed the dog. It was just a tiny yellow mongrel back then, but now it's so big and strong!
Mr. Lu wasn't particularly fond of pets, but he didn't dislike them either. However, the little Ruan Ruan in his house was rather indifferent to him, so Mr. Lu didn't bother to approach it. After instructing the kitchen to prepare a light dinner, he went upstairs and headed straight for Lu Ziyin's bedroom.
Lu Ziyin didn't lock the door, and her father didn't knock; he just walked in.
Lu Ziyin's train of thought was interrupted by her father's sudden appearance, and her expression was not good: "Dad, could you please knock on the door before entering someone else's room next time?"
Mr. Lu was too lazy to argue with his son about such trivial matters, so he asked directly, "You didn't go to the Tang family today?"
"I'm gone," Lu Ziyin said calmly without even lifting her eyelids.
"Go my ass!" Mr. Lu didn't believe it at all. He had heard from others that the eldest young master of the Lu family was ill-mannered and didn't even go to the invitation sent by the head of the Tang family!
"It's just a small birthday party. What impact will my not going have on you?" Lu Ziyin smiled dismissively, clearly not taking the matter to heart.
"What do you mean by a small banquet? That's your future wife, Tang Qiushui's, birthday banquet. How can you not go? What kind of behavior is that!" Mr. Lu couldn't understand. Didn't his son get along quite well with that girl from the Tang family when they were young? How come he can't even attend her birthday banquet now that they're all grown up?
"When did I ever say I was going to marry her?" Lu Ziyin snorted and retorted.
Hearing Lu Ziyin's words, Lu's father became even angrier. "If you're not going to marry the eldest daughter of the Tang family, who do you want to marry?!" A marriage between the Lu and Tang families would definitely be a great help to Lu Ziyin.
Mr. Lu couldn't understand why Lu Ziyin would refuse the marriage proposal!
"I will make my own decisions about my marriage; it's none of your business." Lu Ziyin knew what his father was thinking, but no one but himself could control his marriage!
"What do you mean it's none of my business? I'm your father!" Mr. Lu was so angry with Lu Ziyin that he roared, "What's wrong with the eldest daughter of the Tang family? You two grew up together, you're a perfect match, isn't it only natural that you'd be together? Otherwise, do you think there are many girls in B City who would be willing to marry you with your temper!" Mr. Lu wasn't just thinking about Lu Ziyin's career. After all, their Lu family wasn't one of those small, insignificant families. Even without the marriage alliance, with the Lu family's resources, they would never fall into decline.
Therefore, Mr. Lu's biggest worry was his son's temper!
Everyone in B City knows that the eldest son of the Lu family is "sick" and has a terrible temper. Some even say that his son's "illness" is hereditary!
With the rumors spreading like wildfire, everyone in B City's social circles who had ears knew about it! As a result, Lu Ziyin, who already looked extremely intimidating, became even less popular with these young girls!
To make matters worse, at the end of last year, he took Lu Ziyin to a party, where his son actually scared a twelve-year-old boy to tears!
Mr. Lu still remembers that scene to this day!
Which girl would want to marry me...?
Lu Ziyin suddenly remembered Ding Kemeng's face. If the little darling were willing to marry him...
Lu Ziyin's face suddenly turned red.
“I have a girlfriend.” Lu Ziyin raised her head, her expression calm, but her father could inexplicably see a hint of pride on her face!
"Girlfriend?" Mr. Lu began to doubt himself. Had he just imagined it?
His son, Lu Ziyin! He found a girlfriend without his father's help, all by his own abilities?
Mr. Lu's expression was solemn: "Ziyin, I know your own limitations, so please don't joke around..."
Lu Ziyin: "..."
Do I look like someone who's joking?
Mr. Lu was even more incredulous, his voice tense: "You...you wouldn't have threatened that young girl, would you!"
hehe……
Lu Ziyin rolled her eyes. "Don't worry about it. In short, I won't marry Tang Qiushui. And don't try to match me up with Tang Qiushui anymore. My girlfriend will be jealous."
That's what they say, but Lu Ziyin never seems to have ever seen Ding Kemeng jealous about him!
"You...you're really not kidding?"
Lu Ziyin nodded.
"Does he really have a girlfriend?"
Lu Ziyin continued to nod.
"Who...whose daughter is this? Her eyesight is so bad, how could she have taken a liking to you?" Mr. Lu exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Ziyin's expression wasn't good, and she retorted, "I think I'm fine!"
"You're kidding me!" Mr. Lu rolled his eyes at Lu Ziyin and said, "With your looks, if it weren't for the fact that our Lu family and the Tang family are old friends, and that you and Qiu Shui grew up together, tell me, who would be willing to marry their precious daughter to you!" If it weren't for the fact that he had watched Tang Qiu Shui grow up, and that the child seemed to have a bit of a crush on his son, he, as Lu Ziyin's father, wouldn't have been able to bear letting his son ruin the Tang family's daughter!
"I..." Lu Ziyin wanted to argue, but her father didn't give her the chance. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense. Since you already have a girlfriend, I won't arrange any more messy things for you for now. As long as your girlfriend is of good character and looks decent, I don't have any special requirements."
"She's outstanding." Lu Ziyin's eyes were full of tenderness as she thought of Ding Kemeng.
Mr. Lu also noticed his son's affection for the girl, and his expression softened. He said, "Be nicer to her, and don't lose your temper with her all the time. Otherwise, no one can stand you." If I weren't your father, with your temper, you'd definitely get chopped up as soon as you stepped outside!
Thinking of this, a strange sense of pride rose in Lu's father's heart!
After saying these words, Mr. Lu was too lazy to linger any longer, so he pushed open the door and prepared to leave.
"Oh, right!" Mr. Lu suddenly poked his head in again and asked, "Do you have enough pocket money?" These young people nowadays seem to spend money quite extravagantly after falling in love? Regardless of his son's temper, his future daughter-in-law couldn't be mistreated materially!
