I said I'd treat them to a meal in two days, and it really did take two days.
Sheng Qian received a call from He Lanzhi, who happened to be accompanying Long Yunting home.
“My godfather said he’d treat us to dinner at the same restaurant we went to last time,” Sheng Qian said, looking at the person sitting in the wheelchair.
Long Yunting nodded: "In that case, let's go back and come out as soon as possible."
"I don't plan to tell my family about the matter of becoming godparents to the Helan family. I'll tell them after things have calmed down a bit."
During this time, we should also be able to figure out the Helan family's purpose.
Long Yunting nodded: "Indeed, we should wait a bit, but there's no need to rush."
The two of them went straight back to the Long family.
Surprisingly, Lan Peizhi also invited Jin Ruoxuan to her home.
Long Jingyu's face was as sour as if she had eaten shit.
"Young Master Long, Young Madam Long!"
Jin Ruoxuan stood up from the sofa with a smile and greeted the two people who came in.
Long Yunting simply nodded.
Sheng Qian said, "Miss Jin, you're too kind. Just call me Sheng Qian."
With everyone invited to their home, Long Xingzhou and Jin Ruoxuan's wedding must be just around the corner.
"The old man just went for a walk in the backyard," Hou Guifang said, looking at Long Yunting.
When Long Yunting comes home, he usually talks to Old Master Long for a while.
Seeing that they still needed to entertain guests in the living room, Long Yunting said to Sheng Qian, "Let's go over there together."
“Then A-Ting and I will head over first,” Sheng Qian nodded to Jin Ruoxuan.
Watching the couple walk away, Long Jingyu couldn't sit still any longer. She looked at Jin Ruoxuan and said sarcastically, "Miss Jin, you've been back in the country for quite some time now. Why haven't you thought about finding a job?"
Jin Ruoxuan knew that Long Jingyu did not like her, but because the other party was Long Xingzhou's elder, she had to be polite on the surface and said, "I am currently taking over part of the family business. Once I have enough experience, I should start my own business in the future."
Jin Ruoxuan told Long Jingyu directly that she wasn't unemployed, but rather preparing to start her own business.
Long Jingyu married a man who wasn't very capable, but he was honest.
They are locals from the capital, but they live a bit far from the Long family's area.
Her husband's family background is quite good.
The Long family did not value family background, so back then, they only chose a candidate based on their character.
Now that Long Jingyu is introducing potential partners to her family, she values family background, which makes Jin Ruoxuan's words somewhat sarcastic.
Long Jingyu's expression was not good: "How old is Miss Jin this year?"
"Just turned twenty-three."
“She’s quite old now. Having received an education abroad makes a difference. Unlike us in the past, we only thought about how to get married and then stay at home to be good wives and mothers.” Long Jingyu smiled and said, “For a woman, staying at home and being content is the right thing to do.”
“Big sister, I don’t like hearing you say that,” Deng Zhiying said. “It’s a new era now. Women and men are equal, and we advocate free love. Women can do what men can do. I think Ruoxuan is great. It’s not shameful to have entrepreneurial ideas. Isn’t Xiaoqian also starting her own business? Grandpa is very supportive of it. Look at those clothes. Grandpa even specifically told the family to order more custom-made clothes from Xiaoqian’s shop.”
Even Elder Long was brought up, so Long Jingyu swallowed back what she wanted to say.
Jin Ruoxuan looked at Deng Zhiying with gratitude.
Deng Zhiying herself has a son studying abroad, so she is quite open-minded about this.
If I don't say something to Long Jingyu, I'm afraid the next thing I'll say is to attack Jin Ruoxuan by talking about the openness of foreign countries.
I don't know what's wrong with their eldest sister. She was perfectly fine before, so why is she making a fuss about this?
"Zhiying, you know me, I'm just quick-witted and blunt. Miss Jin, please don't take offense," Long Jingyu was furious inside, but she had to keep quiet and act generous in front of these people.
Jin Ruoxuan smiled: "It's not my fault."
Seeing Jin Ruoxuan holding the cup, Long Jingyu frowned again.
"Is Xingzhou coming back today?" Long Jingyu asked casually.
"He should be coming back. He has to show his face when guests come to the house," Lan Peizhi said. She was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law, Jin Ruoxuan. She only invited Jin Ruoxuan to the house after finding out from the side that her son was also quite satisfied with her.
Long Jingyu frowned again.
I really want to leave these people behind.
During lunch, both Mr. Long and Long Haifeng came out.
The table was laden with dishes, all of which Lan Pei-chi had arranged for Jin Ruo-xuan after inquiring about the situation.
Seeing how much the Long family valued her, Jin Ruoxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The problem is that things are a bit difficult to handle in Longxingzhou.
Jin Ruoxuan was a little afraid of the serious elders in her family. Both Elder Long and Long Yunting were cold and aloof, and they didn't seem approachable.
Therefore, Jin Ruoxuan made herself not to lose her composure during the meal.
Sheng Qian sat there, looking very calm.
There was not the slightest stiffness or awkwardness in him because of the addition of the serious-looking Elder Long sitting at the table.
Then she thought that since Sheng Qian could get along with someone like Long Yunting, she probably wouldn't be afraid of Elder Long.
Looking at it this way, Jin Ruoxuan admired Sheng Qian very much.
Despite having studied abroad, she still appeared reserved sitting in the Long family home.
After lunch, Old Master Long gave some instructions and then asked Long Haifeng and Long Yunting to say a few words.
Clearly, they were going to continue the topic they had discussed before lunch. Sheng Qian had participated in the conversation before, but now she was sitting in the living room, which inevitably drew Jin Ruoxuan's attention.
Jin Ruoxuan was shocked.
She hadn't noticed it at first, but now that she thinks back, Sheng Qian went to see Elder Long with Long Yunting after entering the room.
Therefore, Sheng Qian should also have been involved in the conversation.
