Chapter 27 I can definitely walk to him
Gu Yian was very surprised. He didn't expect that Ji Qingyu still hadn't let go of his feelings for Lu Shiyan after so many years?
But it’s no wonder that Ji Qingyu couldn’t let go. It’s hard for any girl to dislike Lu Shiyan, a noble young man from a wealthy family who is so dignified, self-respecting and has a dignified character, right?
But she was obviously the bright and beautiful second daughter of the Ji family, and also the perfect goddess pursued by countless wealthy young men. However, in just a few words, Gu Yian could truly feel her humility and lack of confidence in this ten-year secret love.
After all, she was his cute and pretty little cousin. Gu Yian didn't want her to get hurt, so he subconsciously reminded her, "You know Ayan's temper. If he doesn't have any feelings for you, it's useless for you to like him."
Ji Qingyu took a deep breath and pretended to be open-minded, "I know, don't worry, Brother Yi'an. If I really can't catch up with him, then I can give up and return to England to get married."
"Marriage?" Gu Yian was stunned. "How old are you?"
"Uncle Ji wants you to get married so soon?"
A trace of sadness and helplessness flashed in Ji Qingyu's eyes. "My parents are old, their health is declining, and their energy is gradually failing. Now the entire Ji family is supported by my eldest brother alone."
She laughed self-deprecatingly, "But a family like ours can't escape the fate of an arranged marriage in the end, so what's the difference between an arranged marriage early or late?"
Gu Yian felt the same way. Even if they had fun and spent money outside, they still had to return to their family to marry into the family. This was the price these rich kids had to pay for enjoying a rich life.
After all, only when the two families join forces can they go further and longer, and the families can become more prosperous.
As for love, most couples are physically together but spiritually apart, and they play their own games.
Gu Yian smiled and consoled him, "Then I wish you can capture A Yan as soon as possible. That way, you can live in North City permanently and we can take care of you."
Ji Qingyu smiled and thanked him, "Thank you, Brother Yi'an. During my time in Beicheng, I happened to help take care of several industries in Beicheng, and this Hongzunfang is one of them. It's a good opportunity for me to take care of Ji Lin."
"This Hongzunfang actually belongs to your Ji family, isn't that a coincidence?" Gu Yian asked in surprise: "You said that kid Ji Lin is back too?"
It's no wonder Gu Yian couldn't believe it. Ji Lin was the Ji family's cherished little devil. "How could Uncle Ji and Aunt Ji be willing to send him back to China?"
Ji Qingyu's head ached when he heard about his younger brother. He choked up and said, "It's because he had too much fun abroad, which made my mom have a heart attack. Then my dad was furious and threw him back to China to let him feel the righteousness of the motherland."
"Repent and turn over a new leaf!"
Gu Yian couldn't help laughing out loud, and at this moment Lu Shiyan also walked into the private room under the guidance of the manager.
Ji Qingyu stood up nervously, looking at the person whom he could only see in financial magazines with burning eyes.
Lu Shiyan was wearing a well-tailored black custom-made suit with dark patterns today. His handsome and elegant face was filled with a stern and cold air. His slightly upturned Ruifeng eyes were deep and unfathomable, which made his lazy and noble aura even more prominent.
"Hello Miss Ji, Lu Shiyan."
Ji Qingyu seemed to see the cold and aloof boy who was particularly favored by the moonlight on the balcony many years ago. That night, her princess dress was soiled by the naughty Ji Lin, and she was so angry that she hid on the balcony and cried.
After she had cried enough, she realized that there was another person on the balcony. The young man had an innate noble temperament. He didn't say anything, but just took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, then turned and left.
At that moment, she knew what love at first sight meant, and love lasted forever at first sight. She could never forget that cold and aloof figure in the years that followed.
"Qingyu?"
Seeing Ji Qingyu in a daze, Gu Yian quickly reminded him.
Ji Qingyu's face flushed instantly, and her ears burned. She tried hard to suppress the thumping of her heart. She stretched out her soft, fair hand and shook Lu Shiyan's warm hand. "Hello, Mr. Lu, Ji Qingyu."
"Just call me Qingyu like Brother Yi'an."
When Gu Yian saw Lu Shiyan coming, he quickly asked the manager to serve the dishes, and then attentively poured wine for Lu Shiyan, "Ayan, Qingyu just returned to China not long ago."
"This time when we return to North City, we have to help manage several of the Ji family's businesses. If there's anything she doesn't understand, you have to teach her."
Ji Qingyu raised her head with anticipation, and was caught off guard by Lu Shiyan's eyes, which were like deep pools. She abruptly withdrew her gaze and quickly picked up the wine glass beside her to hide her panic and embarrassment.
Lu Shiyan glanced at Gu Yian nonchalantly, and his meaning was obvious: he was a very conscientious matchmaker, but he really had no interest in falling in love right now, whether it was with a woman or a man.
But since Gu Yian had already spoken, after all, she was his distant cousin, Lu Shiyan didn't want to offend him directly, so he just said softly, "If you really don't understand, come and ask me."
Gu Yian ignored Lu Shiyan's warning look. Although he and Lu Shiyan were good friends, who could refuse to have such a noble and outstanding brother-in-law?
So he said shamelessly: "Then I will send your WeChat to Qingyu and ask her to add you. Please accept it."
Seeing that Gu Yian was so happy to match them up, Lu Shiyan just wanted to finish the deal quickly and leave, so he nodded imperceptibly.
Ji Qingyu's palms were now sweaty, and her back unconsciously straightened. When she saw the WeChat message came through and the avatar was a simple landscape, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise. She was so excited that her heart, which had been hanging in the air, immediately rose with a secret and uncontrollable joy.
This time, she must be braver and will definitely be able to walk to him.
"You guys chat first, I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."
After Gu Yian finished speaking, he gave Ji Qingyu an encouraging look and stood up to leave.
The black Porsche Cayenne stopped with a "squeak" in the exclusive parking space at the entrance of Hongzunfang. Fu Ci couldn't wait to get out of the car and walked straight in, looking very anxious.
Although he was not sure whether Lu Shiyan would come to the appointment, what if he did?
He would never allow anyone else to have the slightest chance to take his brother away.
Ji Lin quickly caught up with him, "Fu Ci, I'll take you to my private room."
"I'll ask the manager to arrange what you like to eat."
Fu Ci hadn't come to eat in the first place. He kept searching for Lu Shiyan's figure and casually replied, "Anything is fine."
Ji Lin immediately asked the waiter to take Fu Ci to his own private room, and then asked the manager to arrange the lunch.
The manager bowed and said, "Young Master, the Second Miss and Young Master Gu are also dining here today."
Ji Lin was slightly surprised, "Second sister and Brother Yi'an are here too, which room are they in?"
"Between the water and the clouds."
