Chapter 743 Perhaps that day will never come.
"Wow! Sister Jin, you're so biased! You actually prepared such an expensive engagement gift for Er Mang!"
Qian Wei stared at the sparkling necklace in Li Jintao's hand, clearly not cheap, and made an exaggerated expression.
Li Jintao was also surprised, not expecting such a valuable gift.
Su Jin glanced at the boisterous Qian Wei, both amused and exasperated, and said, "Then you should get engaged soon, and I'll prepare a gift for you too."
Qian Wei immediately deflated. Isn't the prerequisite for engagement having a partner?
"Thank you, Sister Jin." Wu Mang naturally didn't stand on ceremony with Su Jin. He not only made Li Jintao accept the gift, but also immediately put it on her head himself.
After chatting happily for a few more minutes, Wu Mang gestured to the three of them, "Sister Jin, the banquet is about to begin, please go and take your seats."
Su Jin, Guan An, and Qian Wei first greeted the other elders, then found a table a little off to the side to sit down, making it easier to talk and eat.
Wu Mang and his family were busy entertaining relatives and friends, so they naturally didn't pay attention to the younger generation.
"Look how happy Er Mang is." Guan An looked at Wu Mang weaving through the crowd. He hadn't felt anything about engagements or weddings before, but now he thought it was pretty good.
"I'm just worried that after Er Mang gets married, he won't be able to play with us like before," Qian Wei said sourly.
Su Jin knew what they were thinking, and said in a serious tone, "Getting married means taking on more responsibility, so it's naturally not as easy as before. You should all keep that in mind."
Guan An and Qian Wei both felt somewhat disappointed.
"Jin-jie, you must not marry Commander Xiao too soon. It's not a big deal that Er Mang has Jin Tao keeping an eye on him, but if Commander Xiao also keeps an eye on you, we really won't have any happy times."
The only person who would dare to tell someone not to get married in front of them is the heartless Qian Wei.
Guan An even nodded in agreement; they were genuinely afraid of Xiao Yunfeng.
If it weren't for the relationship between Su Jin and Xiao Yunfeng, they would have stayed as far away as possible long ago.
Su Jin's upturned lips froze for a few seconds, but she continued to force a smile before the two noticed.
"What you're worried about won't happen."
Perhaps that day will never come.
Guan An and Qian Wei naturally had no idea what had happened, but upon hearing her assurance, they both cheered considerably.
"That's right. Sister Jin is so capable, maybe she can handle Commander Xiao when the time comes."
Just thinking about that scene makes them excited.
Su Jin picked up her water glass, concealing the suppressed emotions in her eyes.
With the steaming hot food served, this topic could finally come to an end.
Just as Su Jin was about to eat, Guan An's reminder made her heart skip a beat.
"Sister Jin, Commander Xiao is here!"
Su Jin stiffly raised her head and followed Guan An's gaze.
Xiao Yunfeng was walking towards Wu Mang's parents.
After about a month, there were no visible signs of injury on Xiao Yunfeng's body, except that he had lost some weight.
He didn't usually have much contact with the Wu family, so their surprise to attend the engagement banquet was unexpected.
After some polite exchanges, Mr. Wu warmly arranged for him to sit at the head table in front.
Su Jin's gaze followed Xiao Yunfeng as he sat down, and then she looked away.
He tightened his grip on the chopsticks.
She has not seen Xiao Yunfeng since she was discharged from the hospital.
Even though it had only been less than a month, she felt as if there was already a vast distance between them, like the Milky Way.
