Chapter 8 She Wasn't Sensible Before
In the kitchen, Mother Zhou whispered to Father Zhou, "My daughter is actually dating the CEO of Lu Yi Group. How could his family, who is so rich, be interested in a humble family like us?"
Mother Zhou was quite satisfied with Lu Yanzhi. He was polite and generous. The pair of jade bracelets was probably worth hundreds of thousands.
He is also considerate. When visiting Qingti's parents, he did not forget to bring a gift. He was willing to meet Qingti's parents after only one month of dating. It can be seen that he really wants to develop a long-term relationship with his daughter.
Unlike Lin Xiye, he had been with his daughter for more than a year and only met her once by chance in a store. It was obvious that they were not aiming for marriage, and he indeed cheated on her.
Mr. Zhou was also very satisfied with Lu Yanzhi, but he was also worried about the disparity in strength between the two families. If his daughter was wronged there in the future, he would not be able to help.
Their daughter likes him, and the old couple are both happy and worried.
Lu Yanzhi picked a few more green grapes to eat. Zhou Qingti saw this and silently noted in his mind that he liked to eat Qingwang.
"Didn't Auntie say I could go to your room and take a look?" Lu Yanzhi was quite curious about the environment she grew up in.
"Knowing more will keep the truth from being revealed." Lu Yanzhi added, fearing she might be too abrupt.
Zhou Qingti agreed with him very much. As the boss of a large enterprise, he was very thoughtful and took care of every detail.
Zhou Qingti's room was not big, and the two of them standing in the aisle between the bed and the desk felt a bit cramped.
They were so close that Zhou Qingti could smell the faint scent of perfume on him.
It was a cool, bitter woody note that inexplicably attracted her.
She must have never brought a man into her room, Zhou Qingti thought.
It's so annoying.
She lived here before college, and there are even some books from middle school and traces of her idol-chasing days in the room.
Lu Yanzhi looked at the torn but still clear photo of the man under the transparent plastic on the desk and asked her, "Did you like him before?"
Zhou Qingti felt a little embarrassed and reached out to cover the photo. This male star later fell from grace, which was considered her black history.
But the photo had been stuck between the plastic and the desk for so long that it couldn't be torn off.
He smiled awkwardly and said, "I haven't liked it for a long time. I was ignorant before."
Lu Yanzhi showed a look of understanding, "He is indeed ignorant. He still owes me a lot of liquidated damages."
"Haha, damn him." Zhou Qingti laughed dryly and changed the subject: "Look at my old photos."
Zhou Qingti took out a mini photo album from the drawer, which contained Polaroid photos from her college days.
"You said you and I go to the same school, but I don't think I've ever seen you in school."
If she had seen him, she would never forget his face.
"The school is too big, and I'm in the Department of Economics and Management." Lu Yanzhi let go of the photo album. Zhou Qingti at that time was more well-behaved than now, and she had shallow dimples when she smiled.
Lu Yanzhi felt that her current cool temperament was more suitable for her.
Zhou Qingti was a little confused: "You are so handsome, why wasn't you among the candidates for the school idol?
"I had it removed because I didn't want to attract too much attention and cause unnecessary trouble." Lu Yan's previous 27 years of life were filled with only two things: learning and management.
"Besides eating sweets, what else do you like to do?" Zhou Qingti needed to get to know him better so that he could play the role better.
"Work out and read some financial news."
Zhou Qingti didn't know how to respond because she didn't like fitness and never read financial news.
"No wonder you have such a great figure." If you don't know how to continue the topic, just compliment the other person.
"You can tell that?" Lu Yanzhi asked seriously, still wearing long sleeves and a coat in this season.
Zhou Qingti chuckled: "Yes, your head-to-body ratio is perfect. You must look thin when you're dressed and muscular when you're undressed."
Father Zhou stood at the door and asked the two to go to eat. Zhou Qingti took him to wash his hands and sat at the dining table. The dishes were more abundant than those during the Chinese New Year.
Halfway through the meal, Zhou Qingti took the initiative to bring up the matter of marriage, "Mom and Dad, Yanzhi and I are going to get the marriage certificate the day after tomorrow."
This statement caught the two people opposite them off guard. So soon? They thought they would have to date for a year or two before considering marriage.
Mother Zhou put down her chopsticks: "Aren't you being a little too hasty?" Not to mention that the two had only been dating for a month, to get married, the parents of both sides had to meet and choose an auspicious day.
Zhou Qingti also put down his chopsticks, took Lu Yanzhi's arm and began to express his determination: "Mom and Dad, I really want to marry him. I have never been so sure of anything. He is also the first person I truly love. Please agree."
Zhou Qingti felt her acting skills were perfect after the heartfelt confession. Lu Yanzhi held her hand and said, "Yes, uncle and aunt, we are truly in love and soulmates. I will treat Qingti well in the future and I have the ability to treat her well."
Zhou Qingti appeared moved and nodded repeatedly, looking at his parents expectantly, but in his heart he was giving Lu Yanzhi an Oscar for Best Actor.
Lu Yanzhi continued to add: "If uncle and aunt are free tomorrow, our two families can have dinner together."
Father Zhou could only agree: "Then we'll talk about it when we meet with the parents tomorrow, we'll talk about it when we meet..."
His daughter's sudden determination to marry Lu Yanzhi frightened him so much that he unconsciously picked up a peppercorn and ate it.
After lunch, Lu Yanzhi took Zhou Qingti to her room and told her, "Come to my house for dinner tonight."
I should go. Fifty million is not that easy to earn. Zhou Qingti was a little nervous. "What if your family doesn't like me?"
It is understandable that my parents like Lu Yanzhi, but I am afraid that his family will not be impressed by my conditions.
If she doesn't like it, how can she get married? If she can't get married, what will she do with the 50 million?
Although they haven't obtained the marriage certificate yet, Zhou Qingti has already taken ownership of the 50 million yuan.
"As long as I like it, it won't be a problem if you can deal with my grandma." Lu Yanzhi comforted her.
If a third person heard their conversation, they would think they were a real couple.
Zhou Qingti was very nervous and didn't notice anything wrong with Lu Yanzhi's words, "As long as I like it."
"So what does your grandma like? What gift should I bring for them?"
"Don't worry about the gift. I've asked our driver, Assistant Dong, to buy it for you."
The two of them drank two cups of tea with Zhou's parents and then left. Zhou's parents wanted to keep Zhou Qingti to ask them some questions, but she made the excuse that she had to go to the store and buy things for Lu Yanzhi's parents, so she quickly followed Lu Yanzhi.
She didn't want to stay and be questioned, and her current personality was love-brained, so she wanted to revolve around Lu Yanzhi.
Zhou Qingti had originally planned to go to the store but now she was not in the mood to go, so Lu Yanzhi sent her back to the small house where she lived alone.
Zhou Qingti thought it was time to tell his good friend Lin Miao about this.
If I wait until I get the marriage certificate before telling her, she will definitely be angry. She is still struggling with whether to tell the truth or continue her love-brained persona.
In the end I decided to just be in love. The more people knew about the marriage agreement, the more dangerous it would be.
Zhou Qingti felt like he was living in front of a 24-hour live camera, acting all the time.
