When An An and the others went to the social gathering, the hall was already full of people. Lu Yan also received the invitation, but he didn't use it.
After all, his face was the best proof, so why would he need an invitation?
An An had participated in such activities with Gu's father and mother in her previous life, but although their family was not bad, it was still not at this level. Now, she was still participating as Lu Yan's partner. Moreover, the seats in the hall were lined with big shots, and some of them, she dared to say, were often on TV. It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous.
But she has a peculiarity, which is that the more nervous she is, the more expressionless her face becomes. To outsiders, this girl seems quite calm, which is not bad. At least she is not petty and presentable before she even enters the door.
However, Lu Yan, who was familiar with An An, noticed that An An was a little nervous, with sweat in his palms. He slowed down his pace, held An An's hand, tilted his head to An An's ear, and whispered, "Don't be nervous, I'm here!" These simple words calmed An An's restless heart in an instant. She smiled and responded, "Okay!"
Their whispered conversation, in the eyes of outsiders, seemed like they were whispering to each other, very intimate, especially Lu Yan's attitude. How could he still be the cold-faced King Yan in their eyes!
At this moment, Lu Yan's hardness and coldness turned into a pool of soft water, and he wanted to pour all of it on An An. It was really surprising that the cold Lu Yan had such a tender side.
Everyone was amazed. In fact, Lu Yan was a hot commodity in the compound. Not to mention his family background, just his appearance attracted many young girls, not to mention that he was capable. After
comparing them in this way, everyone became curious about what kind of woman could turn Lu Yan, the cold-faced King Yan, into a tender and infatuated man.
Under the dim yellow light, An An was wearing a goose yellow dress with a waist, which made her waist look even more slender. As the weather gradually turned cooler, especially at night, it was still a bit chilly outside. An An wore a white scarf over her skirt, which just covered the strawberry print on her neck. This outfit was unique and novel. With her sweet smile, bright eyes and white teeth, it was really eye-catching. What a smart and clever little girl.
Just for this look, no wonder! No wonder she could fascinate Lu Yan. I heard that Lu Yan had a quarrel with his mother at home because of the little object.
Although, the relationship between Lu Yan and Yu Yaqin was not good, but in the eyes of the public, this layer has been subconsciously ignored.
An An didn't know that she had only whispered a few words with Lu Yan, and she instantly became the focus of the whole audience. Lu Yan naturally noticed the eyes around him, and his body subconsciously leaned forward, blocking An An behind him, blocking most of the eyes.
Lu Yan's actions were naturally seen by those who were interested. Lu Zhenguo sat in the second row, and there were many old friends around him. Although they looked like strangers were not allowed to enter from outside, they were old acquaintances, so their attitude was more casual.
Just now, someone started joking in front of Lu Zhenguo, "Old Lu! It seems that your son is paying close attention to the little girl!". Lu Yan's previous subtle glance had kept the little girl behind him. These people were all smart and could naturally see at a glance that they were very affectionate and affectionate.
Hearing his old friend's joke, Lu Zhenguo laughed deafeningly, "That little bastard likes her, there's nothing we can do!" Then, he changed the subject, "How about my daughter-in-law, isn't she outstanding enough?"
A family like theirs pays more attention to matching social status, but Lu Zhenguo is a man who values beauty, otherwise he would not have married Yu Yaqin. Speaking of family background, Yu Yaqin's family used to sell fish in the old street in their early years, which really has nothing to do with a family like the Lu family. But Yu Yaqin was good-looking when she was young, and Lu Zhenguo fell in love with her at first sight.
Regardless of the opposition from the family, Yu Yaqin was married back. When it was Lu Yan's turn, he was just like his father. Look at the appearance of this little girl. There is no one in the whole hall who is more outstanding than her.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhenguo smiled proudly. Although Lu Yan, this brat, was stubborn and went against him, some things were inherited, that is, both father and son valued appearance.
Lu Zhenguo said this, but it was really unfair to Lu Yan. Lu Yan met someone who was more outstanding than An An, but he just liked An An. His little person was considerate no matter how you looked at her.
All the friends around him saw Lu Zhenguo's proud look. "What's the use of having good looks? What will we do if we marry her in the future?" Lu Zhenguo was like a fool. He didn't hear the ridicule from his friends at all. Instead, he said proudly, "My daughter-in-law! She is not only good-looking, but also has good grades. She was the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Hezhou City and is now a college student at Tsinghua University!" People outside thought that the Lu family was full of tiger generals, but they were uneducated.
Lu Zhenguo himself knew that the Lu family was still old farmers three generations ago, but Grandpa Lu accidentally joined the army and worked his way up from a mud-legged peasant to the present, but it still couldn't change the fact that the Lu family couldn't read.
Lu Zhenguo himself was not good at studying, so he wanted to make his children proud, so he worked hard on his two sons. The eldest son was disobedient and joined the army before finishing his studies. The second son was obedient, but it was a pity! He was not destined to study, and he was always the last one in the class. In the end, he barely went to a university. For this, his old friends in the compound laughed at him a lot.
Now, Lu Yan found him such a cultured daughter-in-law, and Lu Zhenguo's mouth! He never closed his mouth.
When he said this, the people around him looked at each other in surprise. Those who could play with Lu Zhenguo were basically rough guys who stayed in the army in the early years. Now that they are older, they slowly transferred to the Qingshui Department to cultivate themselves. Now that they met their old friend, their family suddenly found a daughter-in-law who graduated from Qing University, so they naturally looked up to him.
They said that they didn't care about anything. These rough guys got a headache when they saw books. They just wanted the younger generation to read more books. However, the younger generation born in such a family had much smoother life than ordinary people. There were really few who really loved to study. Instead, many of them were cat lovers and dog lovers. This was a typical case of being spoiled by their families. But! Even if these descendants are spoiled by the family, they will not worry about their future. After all, they are born here and are taken care of!
Lu Zhenguo looks very happy here, but Yu Yaqin is not so happy there! The ones on her arms beside her are Jiang Yuanyuan and Fang Xinyan. In Yu Yaqin's eyes, these two are both prospective daughters-in-law. Jiang Yuanyuan has already been engaged to the second son, Lu Shaoyuan, and is considered a prospective daughter-in-law.
As for Fang Xinyan, although Yu Yaqin liked her, her eldest son refused to cooperate. Now, at the social gathering, she even brought Gu Anan, and everyone saw their intimacy. Fang Xinyan was in a bad mood. She and her cousin Jiang Yuanyuan had always been with Yu Yaqin, but they regarded themselves as daughters-in-law. However,
Lu Yan brought Gu Anan here, and in front of the public, their intimacy was like a slap in the face, instantly destroying her identity as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family, which she had worked so hard to build. She didn't even need to think about it, she knew how those people had laughed at her behind her back.
The hand strands of Fang Xinyan's hands were about to be twisted into a knot by her, and the hatred in her eyes seemed to be able to turn into substance and rush towards An An, as if she wanted to eat her alive. If An An didn't notice such a penetrating gaze, she would be a fool. She looked in the direction of the gaze and naturally saw Fang Xinyan standing next to Yu Yaqin. She curled the corners of her lips vaguely and showed a faint smile, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
Then, the hand behind the back slowly climbed up to Lu Yan's waist, squeezed it hard, and snorted, "Look at the rotten peach blossom you found for me!"
The soft flesh on his waist was squeezed suddenly, and Lu Yan straightened his back subconsciously, and it was stiff. This time, An An couldn't even squeeze it. Seeing the little girl's eyes widened as if she was spitting fire, Lu Yan immediately begged for mercy, "He's just a messy outsider, how can he compare with you?" An An had to admit that Lu Yan's mouth was like honey, and the words he said became more and more pleasant. She glanced at him sideways, but did not pursue it again.
Lu Yan took her to visit Lu Zhenguo first. No matter how bad his relationship with the Lu family was, he still kept a bit of friendship in public. When the two of them went to Lu Zhenguo's place, he brought An An to greet him, "Dad!"
An An followed, "Hello, uncle!"
This was considered a formal occasion, a meeting with the parents. Some people who were whispering nearby suddenly fell silent and pricked up their ears to eavesdrop on what was going on here. They all knew Lu Yan, and the girl he brought back was not from the compound, as everyone knew. However, their family paid attention to matching each other, so they didn't know what Lu Zhenguo's attitude was, whether he would accept this new daughter-in-law.
An An didn't know what outsiders thought of her, but she felt that her future father-in-law's smile was a little too weird. An An was not wrong, it was indeed weird! When Lu Zhenguo saw his eldest son and daughter-in-law standing together, he could already imagine that if these two children gave birth to a big fat boy or a little granddaughter, they would be the most beautiful people in the compound.
When Lu Zhenguo thought about having a grandson soon, his serious expression could not help but smile. However, he forgot how scary it was for a serious person to laugh out of the blue.
Not only An An, Lu Yan also suppressed the wonder in his heart. He looked at his father with dissatisfaction and said in a stern manner, "Dad, if everything is ok, we'll go next door first!"
"Something is wrong! Who said everything is ok?" Lu Zhenguo was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. When he looked at An An, his expression softened immediately, "Go and play. If anyone bullies you, remember to tell Dad!", OK, OK, An An hasn't even called Dad yet! Lu Zhenguo has already got himself into trouble.
However, she nodded obediently. Lu Zhenguo had never had a concubine in his life, and seeing such a delicate and gentle daughter-in-law, he was also a little happy in his heart. He snorted coldly and glanced at Lu Yan, "Fortunately, you are not blind!" It was obviously a compliment to Lu Yan for his good vision, but it was said with a bit of gunpowder.
Lu Yan acted as if he didn't hear it. He said in a light tone, "Unlike you, you are blind!" The word blind from his mouth was thought-provoking.
Lu Zhenguo waved his hands, "Get out, don't be angry with me!" He regretted it now. He married a daughter-in-law who didn't know what was going on. Of course, it was not a loss, after all, his daughter-in-law was beautiful.
This is not Lu Zhenguo lying, Yu Yaqin's appearance is indeed outstanding, even now that she is older, she is still very outstanding among her peers.
People around them are no longer surprised by the way Lu Yan and Lu Zhenguo get along with each other. This father and son are like a firecracker and a match, and they are the kind that can catch fire at the slightest touch.
An An was surprised but did not say anything because of the crowd. When the two walked away, she heard a loud voice from behind, "How is it? Is my daughter-in-law giving birth well?" An An staggered and almost fell, thanks to Lu Yan who held him steady. He had a frown on his face, of course he had heard Lu Zhenguo's remarks. He sighed, "That old man is just like that, don't take it to heart!"
An An nodded and praised, "She's kind of cute!"
Originally, Lu Yan should have been with An An, what a pity! Something happened backstage, and Lu Yan had no choice but to follow. Before turning around, he instructed, "You sit for a while. If you want to eat anything, just take it. Don't be afraid!" After saying that, he was still worried, so he took a small plate of melon seeds from the table, grabbed a few small oranges and placed them next to An An's table, then asked the people in the back, and brought out a small plate of cake. He shouted, "Eat it first, I'll be right back!"
Seeing Lu Yan like this, An An chuckled, "Don't worry!" She is so grown up, how could she be bullied?
Lu Yan nodded, but still worried. He glanced around and found that the people he knew were all in the backstage, not in the hall. He found a crew cut and told him, "If you need anything, come find me in the back!"
The crew cut didn't expect Lu Yan to take the initiative to talk to him. He nodded excitedly and saluted, "I'll take care of the task!"
An An only cared about eating with her head down, but didn't realize that Lu Yan had specially asked someone to help. But just as Lu Yan left, the blind man came over. She looked up at the person who came, clapped her hands slowly, knocked off the melon seed shells, and said nonchalantly, "What's the matter?"
