21 Engagement Reception
Ding Xuefei is a local. Her family's house in the provincial capital is in an old community with two bedrooms and one living room. She warmly invited Ying Mingyu to visit her home, but Ying Mingyu refused because he was busy with work.
Overdue appointment.
I don't know if it was for this reason that Ying Mingyu didn't ask her to move to his place, but he never refused a girl to come to his house to cook.
After entering May, Fan Hua asked him directly about this person when he had a drink with him. From Ying Mingyu's attitude, Fan Hua realized that his friend planned to make mistakes.
"Ying Mingyu, are you so careless about your life-long affairs?"
His friend has always been picky, especially when it comes to women. But after Lu Qianqian left, not only did he eat and dress casually, but he also seemed to be much more casual about finding a partner.
"I haven't decided on anything. I'm still considering it now. How can I say it's hasty?"
In comparison, he invited Lu Qianqian to live in his home not long after they met, and then quickly jumped in. This was called imprudent.
"Consider it? I think it's better for you not to just do it. In a girl's family, success means success. If you don't succeed, you should reject it early. What are you doing to help others live longer?"
"I will seriously consider your suggestion."
Fan Hua was frightened. He felt that Ying Mingyu's meaning was different from what he wanted to express.
After returning, he discussed this matter with Fang Jinshi.
"I don't think so. What if he really misunderstood me intentionally and agreed to that little nurse?"
"You are really worried about it. What if he really agrees?"
Fan Hua took a look at her expression: "Seriously? Don't you feel unhappy?"
Fang Jinshi did not answer the call.
"I have an idea. I wonder if you are willing to cooperate." Fan Hua deliberately tried to sell it, "You see, we have been talking for a long time. Shouldn't we... let's go ahead and get engaged, and ask our friends to bless us?"
Fang Jinshi looked at him cautiously, and after a while said: "You can consider it."
"Then... why not make a decision now?" Fan Hua took out the flowers from behind, took the brocade box from his pocket, knelt down and proposed.
Fang Jinshi thought that his suggestion just now was to save this step, but she happened to not care too much, but she was also wondering whether he was telling the truth or just to plot against Lu Qianqian.
When Fan Hua reached this point, Fang Jinshi thought carefully and stretched out his left hand.
After helping his fiancée put on the engagement ring, Fan Hua stood up and smiled happily, reaching out to hug her into his arms.
He felt that waiting was meaningful, because he now has the whole world. Compared with Ying Mingyu and Lu Qianqian, it was really hard work. Thinking of this, Fan Hua decided to put the marriage on the agenda and go there during the Chinese New Year this year.
Let’s pay a visit to my future father-in-law.
He didn't want to let the duck go again. Only an idiot like Ying Mingyu would be so considerate of the woman. Most men are more proactive and strong in relationships, and Fan Hua is the one who practices it.
They decided to hold a simple engagement banquet in the hotel on the 10th, a week after the May long vacation, and only friends were invited.
"Qianqian, it's me and Jin Shi or you and... Ying Mingyu who are the matchmakers. Don't tell me you don't want to bless us at this time, right?"
"How could it be...but on my side..."
"Qianqian, you are a very special friend to me and Jin Shi. Even if you don't want our matchmaking gift, you should at least congratulate us in person, right?"
Fan Hua didn't give Lu Qianqian a chance to make excuses. He couldn't believe that after several months, she was still struggling with the company. It wasn't that he thought Lu Qianqian had straightened things out. He didn't think Lu Qianqian was managing the company.
With her talent, he guessed that she had thought of a way to escape from all that.
"This...I will try my best. I promise that I will try my best to try to participate."
Fan Hua did not try to persuade her further: "By the way, you can come and see Young Master Ying. Maybe he will bring his female companion. Qian Qian can also bring her boyfriend."
Fang Jinshi heard her fiancé threatening Lu Qianqian from the sidelines and couldn't help but shake her head. It would be so ugly if they both brought their new love.
"Be careful, the more you help, the more trouble you will have." She warned Fan Hua who hung up the phone.
That night, Cheng Dong was not particularly disappointed when he heard what Lu Qianqian said.
"Qianqian, give me a chance to help you forget that person."
Lu Qianqian stayed there for a moment. This person she had known for a short time could actually see through her innermost thoughts.
After that, Cheng Dong said that he would let her say goodbye to everyone the next day and make arrangements to send her out the day after tomorrow.
Two colleagues were very sorry, saying that they would no longer be able to eat good food. Lu Qianqian was prepared and gave them simple sketches of their favorite wild birds. They took the time to draw them while staying at the camp these days.
.
From the perspective of inspiration, it is the right choice to go out for a walk, especially coming to this place, which is really beautiful.
Cheng Dong didn't see her off in person. After all, he was the main person in charge and really didn't have the spare time.
After returning to Shannan, Lu Qianqian tried to draw other things and found that her mood seemed to have improved and she could draw normally.
But looking at the person in the painting, it seems that I can't think so. Maybe his condition is getting worse.
Now that things have happened, what is the significance of painting Ying Mingyu, and what is the psychology behind it?
The reason why I drew it unconsciously may be because I used to draw it frequently so it became easy for me.
Receiving Fan Hua's invitation was like pebbles dropped into a pool, Lu Qianqian's mood fluctuated greatly.
At this time, is it really good to see Ying Mingyu? How is he doing? Will he bring a female companion? Isn't it better this way - seeing him with others, living a good life and being happy?
?
Lu Qianqian really wanted to make herself think this way, but unconsciously she felt weird in her heart, with a lot of messy thoughts. It was similar to being unwilling to give in, wanting to make trouble for him, and wanting to see what his expression would be like when he saw her...
I want to know what will happen if they really meet.
Whether to go or not, she preferred the former from the beginning. Occasionally she would back down, but Fan Hua only gave her three days to consider.
Lu Qianqian directly took the train that day. Since it was a banquet in the evening, she was not rushed.
When she took a taxi outside the hotel, she subconsciously looked for Ying Mingyu's car in the cars parked nearby. She was slightly relieved when she didn't see it.
Unfortunately, as soon as she entered the door, she bumped into someone who seemed to be about to go out to smoke.
Ying Mingyu put away the cigarette case, saw her stopping there, stepped forward and said, "I'll take you in."
Lu Qianqian didn't refute, and followed the man, walking inside without knowing the direction at all.
"Hey, boss and Lu Yatou are here together." Bao Zhan was the first to make a fuss.
Lu Qianqian was paying attention to whether there was a strange woman. After sitting down with Ying Mingyu, on the other side of him was Fan Hua. It seems that he didn't bring his new girlfriend...?
"This...a little thought, I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years."
"Thank you." Fan Hua took the thing and handed it to Jin Shi who was beside him, "It's still Qianqian's fault. It's a joint gift from both of you. Someone didn't prepare a gift at all."
Ying Mingyu glanced at him and said nothing.
Fan Hua came to see him yesterday and told him that Qian Qian was very likely to come. According to statistics, the probability was about 80%.
"Jin Shi and I have sacrificed so much. For your happiness, why don't you try your best?"
Ying Mingyu did not reply at that time.
"Qianqian will definitely prepare gifts, so you can avoid it. Anyway, Qianqian has prepared them before."
The person who said that at the time was now complaining about his unreliability, and Ying Mingyu didn't want to pay attention to it.
"Lu Yatou... what's your name over there? How are you doing? Does it feel good to be a wealthy person?" The table at the table was basically people from Ying Mingyu's group, and the next table was Fan Hua's colleague. This is probably a legend.
The woman in the song sings and her husband follows her.
"Ah, I forgot to introduce you. Qianqian, this is my wife, Hu Suli. Lily, she is our boss's fiancée, just call her Qianqian, no problem, right Qianqian?" Bao Zhan stepped in and introduced his wife.
To Lu Qianqian.
"Well..." It didn't matter what her name was. Lu Qianqian felt that the problem was the introduction of her identity. Before she could finish speaking, Ding Yuan asked her something else.
Lu Qianqian was busy dealing with friends she hadn't seen for a long time, and took the time to glance at the people around her. Did he not retort because he didn't want the atmosphere to be too tense, or what did he mean?
The other people at the table knew that she and Ying Mingyu had been separated for more than three months, and they deliberately pretended not to know. Lu Qianqian probably understood what they meant, and she had no intention of sabotaging it and did not try to defend herself.
After the meal, the atmosphere was very lively, almost the same as before. Ying Mingyu was as quiet as before. This meal was especially silent. Everyone was talking to her, but he didn't say a word.
After all, it's different. He won't talk to her with a smile, let alone pick up food for her. Even if it's a lie, it's impossible.
We had to go to work the next day, so we didn’t drink much and the party ended soon.
"Then let's all go back to our homes and see you tomorrow." As the host, Fan Hua said goodbye to the others and looked at his friends and Lu Qianqian who were still standing by to accompany him, "Young Master Ying should at least see Qianqian off and make sure she gets home safely.
,How about it?"
He felt that his friend was almost suffering from internal injuries. He hadn't seen him for so long, but there were so many annoying people. The rest of the time was left to him, and it was up to Ying Mingyu whether he would succeed or not.
"I'll send you off." Ying Mingyu said the second sentence to Lu Qianqian.
Lu Qianqian nodded, said goodbye to Fan Hua and Fang Jinshi, and followed Ying Mingyu to find the car.
She was surprised when she saw the black car. When did she change the car, or did she borrow it from someone else?
Lu Qianqian slowly got into the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt, then turned to look at the people around her.
Through the neon lights and street lights in front of the hotel, she saw a face that was absolutely miraculous. She had always known that he was handsome, whether he was expressionless or smiling.
A rare beauty in the world.
"Where to go?" Ying Mingyu woke her up.
Lu Qianqian was stunned for a moment. So he didn't start it because he was waiting for her to report her address?
"Where are you going?" Lu Qianqian blurted out a question before she could finish thinking about it.
Ying Mingyu started the car without asking again.
If the car is changed, will the place of residence also be changed? Lu Qianqian wondered if this was possible. In fact, what she was most worried about was that the place he was going to next was his girlfriend's house.
