Although Lu Weixing's sudden arrival scared everyone, he later seemed to understand Cheng Yuesheng's thoughts and knew that things could not be rushed, so he changed his previous approach.
During dinner, they opened the bottle of wine that Qin Heque brought. Because his previous words made Lu Weixing dislike him a little, he deliberately let Qin Heque drink more during the meal.
In addition, the father and son, Lu Qingye and Lu Zecheng, were more or less dissatisfied with him. After all, their niece (sister) who they had just found actually had a boyfriend, and she was even closer to Qin Heque, which made them even more jealous of Qin Heque. Since they couldn't do anything openly, they would trick him into drinking a few more glasses at the dinner table.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at Qin Heque drinking with some worry and helplessness. She looked at them with disapproval and was about to speak out to stop the men of the Lu family, but Qin Heque quietly held her hand.
She saw Qin Heque move his mouth and said silently: Don't worry.
Cheng Yuesheng frowned, feeling a little worried about him continuing to drink. After all, Qin Heque's alcohol tolerance seemed to be just average.
She still remembered the last time Qin Heque drank, Feng Binbin asked her to take care of him. Although he didn't seem to be very drunk that time, if he had a good alcohol tolerance, Feng Binbin would not have specifically reminded her like this.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at Qin Heque, who remained calm and accepted everyone who came to him, and his worried expression became more and more obvious.
She glared at Lu Zecheng with dissatisfaction, and Lu Zecheng suddenly felt his hair stand on end.
He looked around and found that Cheng Yuesheng was staring at him with his eyes almost emitting fire.
He was such a smart guy that he immediately knew why Cheng Yuesheng was glaring at him.
So he immediately put down his wine glass and said, "Eat, eat..."
Under Lu Zecheng's explicit and implicit hints, the others finally calmed down a bit. In fact, they had their limits when it came to urging people to drink, but Cheng Yuesheng didn't like it. It was better for them to do less of this kind of thing. After all, none of them wanted to see Cheng Yuesheng angry.
Not long after dinner, Cheng Yuesheng suggested leaving.
Lu Weixing suppressed his disappointment and said, "It's getting late. Why don't we stay here for the night? Besides, we're going to drink tonight. It will be troublesome to go back."
"It's okay, Brother Que doesn't drink much, and we have a driver." Cheng Yuesheng smiled and rejected the offer of staying overnight.
Qin Heque's expression was also very clear, not drunk at all. "We won't bother you any further. Let's go back first."
Lu Weixing had expected that his attempt to retain her would fail; he just wanted to test the waters.
"Then be careful on the road and stay safe. Zecheng, go see them off."
"good."
Even if Lu Weixing didn't say it, he was planning to send them to the car.
Lu Zecheng walked beside Cheng Yuesheng and spoke only when he saw that they were some distance away from the house.
"Shengsheng, I'm sorry. I didn't know grandpa would come. It might be because my dad and I haven't been home for a long time and he became suspicious, so he checked what we were doing himself, and that's why he found out." Lu Zecheng carefully observed Cheng Yuesheng's expression, fearing that she would be unhappy.
"It doesn't matter. We'll find out sooner or later anyway. It doesn't make any difference whether we come early or late."
Lu Zecheng hurriedly said, "Of course, Shengsheng, I just hope you don't misunderstand that we called Grandpa here to force you to return to the Lu family. We didn't mean that."
Cheng Yuesheng knew that they, like her, planned to proceed step by step, otherwise they would not have suddenly interrupted Lu Weixing when he invited her to North City.
She smiled and said, "I know, don't worry, I don't think that way."
When they reached the car, Xiao Liu had already opened the door and was waiting for them to get in.
"Then we'll go first, Mr. Lu."
Lu Zecheng suddenly grabbed her.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at him puzzledly, "Is there anything else?"
"Shengsheng, can you please stop calling me Mr. Lu? It sounds strange."
"Then how do you want me to call you?"
Lu Zecheng suddenly glanced at Qin Heque with jealousy, and asked Cheng Yuesheng expectantly, "Can I call you brother?"
Maybe because his parents divorced when he was very young and Lu Qingxu was busy with work, he grew up with his grandfather Lu Weixing. Both father and son were very strict in their education of him, so he wanted to have brothers and sisters since he was a child so that they could play together.
That's why he particularly likes his sister Cheng Yuesheng, and even feels a little jealous and dislikes Qin Heque who stole his sister away.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at the uneasy look on his face and gave him a curved smile, "Brother."
Lu Zecheng was excited, his eyes shining, "Shengsheng..."
"We should go now. Goodbye, brother."
"Okay, goodbye. Next time you see Shengsheng, remember to say goodbye to me when you get home."
Lu Zecheng stood there and watched them until the car drove out of Lu's residence.
"Have you finished talking?" Qin Heque took Cheng Yuesheng's hand and gently stroked the place where Lu Zecheng had pulled it before.
Although Lu Zecheng is Cheng Yuesheng's cousin, Qin Heque is still not happy about him holding Cheng Yuesheng's hand.
"Yeah, I called him brother."
"Oh, that's great. From now on I can be your sweetheart without any distractions."
Cheng Yuesheng blushed, feeling that his words were too blunt.
The tailgate of the car had been raised a long time ago. Neither of them spoke. It was a little too quiet, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in the air.
Cheng Yuesheng couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
His eyes, which had always been calm and peaceful, became extremely deep. His eyes, like black jade, stared straight at her, filled with restless emotions.
The buttons of his shirt, which he usually buttoned to the top, had long been undone, revealing a small part of his neck. Perhaps because he had been drinking, he leaned lazily on the seat, like a lion taking a moment's rest, but his eyes were already locked on his prey.
Cheng Yuesheng swallowed unnaturally and suddenly felt a little nervous.
She asked in a low voice: "Brother Que, are you drunk?"
"Do you think I'm drunk?"
Cheng Yuesheng couldn't tell. When he left just now, he was still sober and walked normally. He didn't look drunk at all, but now he looked like he was drunk.
"I don't know." Cheng Yuesheng shook his head, then hesitantly guessed, "He's not drunk."
Qin Heque looked lazy at the moment. Cheng Yuesheng had never seen him like this before.
She said, "I seem drunk again."
Qin Heque laughed softly.
Hearing his laughter, Cheng Yuesheng was a little confused.
He leaned closer to Cheng Yuesheng, his warm breath blowing on her face, "Are you drunk or not?"
His voice is low and magnetic, and it makes people's hearts tremble when they hear it.
"I, I don't know..." Cheng Yuesheng almost didn't dare to look at his current appearance. She felt that Qin Heque, who was drunk, looked a bit like a fairy, as if he was seducing her.
As soon as she finished speaking, she was immediately pulled into Qin Heque's arms and held him. He leaned his head on Cheng Yuesheng's head and said in a low voice, "I'm drunk. Shengsheng, let me lean on you."
Cheng Yuesheng was skeptical, but did not refuse.
So I let him hold me all the way home.
