His eyes were blazing, and his grip on her was a little tight. Su Jianan knew that she wouldn't be able to pass the test by being deceptive, so she decided to tell the truth.
"Han Ruoxi told me. Now that I think about it... I have to thank her."
If Han Ruoxi hadn't reminded her to read the reports at the time, she wouldn't have known that Lu Boyan had put a lot of thought into the wedding ring.
Next time no one can laugh at her for not even having a wedding ring! But then again—
"Is this a wedding ring?" She turned the diamond ring on her hand, her bright peach eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows: "Strictly speaking, matching rings are considered wedding rings. This can only be considered an engagement ring."
Su Jianan frowned slightly: "You didn't propose to me, so is it wrong for me to wear this ring? Should we wear matching rings?"
Lu Boyan looked deeply and smiled half-heartedly: "Jian An, the rings are meant to be worn for each other at the wedding."
wedding
These two words sank into Su Jianan's heart like a thin needle. She raised her lips and said, "Then I'd better wear this."
After saying that, she turned around with a smile and left the dressing room.
She and Lu Boyan are a legitimate couple, and it is known that they are very "loving". But now she realized that they didn't even have a wedding. The meal for four people they met again after fourteen years was their "wedding banquet".
Alas, it’s too shabby. It makes me sad just to talk about it.
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jianan's back and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
He will not lack anything that should be given to her.
However, the little monster has not been tamed yet, and the time has not come yet.
The anniversary celebration started at seven thirty. It was exactly six o'clock when Su Jianan went downstairs, and Tang Yulan urged them to set off.
Su Jianan then noticed that Tang Yulan was still wearing the same home clothes as during the day, and asked with some confusion: "Mom, aren't you going with us?"
"Why should I go join in the fun when you young people are there? There's no one to play mahjong with me." Tang Yulan smiled and said, "I'll go back after you leave."
As she said that, Tang Yulan noticed the ring on Su Jianan's hand and recognized at a glance that the diamond on it was cut from the diamond Lu Boyan bought. The smile on her face deepened: "When I asked him how much money he spent, Why did he use the money to buy a stone? He still didn’t want to tell me. I didn’t expect him to have this intention. The design is so beautiful.”
A smile spread across Su Jianan's eyes, and her face turned red involuntarily. Just as Lu Boyan came down from upstairs, Tang Yulan stood up and said, "You guys go, I'm going back too."
Tang Yulan had her own driver. After watching her car drive away, Su Jianan and Lu Boyan got into her own car. The black Rolls-Royce slowly started and drove towards the hotel in the city center under the last ray of sunset.
Su Jianan's long dress was a little draggy. After getting in the car, she arranged it for a while and put away her handbag: "Lu Boyan, can I ask you something?"
Lu Boyan looked over: "What's going on?"
"Chen Xuanxuan's car exploded, and the Chen family's restaurant chain was found to be unsanitary and sanitized. Do these have anything to do with you?" Su Jianan asked a little uncertainly.
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows: "The chain restaurant belongs to the Chen family. They have their own management methods. What does it have to do with me if the sanitation and disinfection are not up to standard? As for Chen Xuanxuan's car... do you think I am like that kind of person?"
Everyone in the shopping mall knows that Lu Boyan attacks his opponents quickly and accurately, is cold-blooded and ruthless in competition, and is so harsh on himself and his subordinates that most people can't stand it. But - he is not harsh, he is absolutely just and fair, and he plays dirty tricks behind his back. He never does anything like that.
He really doesn't look like that.
But Su Jianan knows that he only uses fairness and justice in the shopping mall. As for life... shouldn't he be too overbearing, stingy, rogue and unreasonable
She shook her head: "You don't look like that kind of person, but I still think... it's you."
Lu Boyan had no choice but to raise such a straightforward little monster. He stroked his forehead: "Even if it's me - what do you want? Huh?"
When he said this, it was tantamount to admitting it.
Su Jianan's bright peach blossom eyes were filled with smiles: "I want to kiss you!"
After a pause, she added seriously, "You don't know, I haven't liked Chen Xuanxuan for a long time. I didn't like her when I was still studying abroad."
During the years when she and Luo Xiaoxi were studying in the United States, they met Chen Xuanxuan several times. At that time, Chen Xuanxuan just didn't have eyes with Luo Xiaoxi and had no hostility toward her. However, she could never like the people Luo Xiaoxi hated, so every time they met, they would inevitably have a verbal quarrel.
Now someone finally took care of Chen Xuanxuan for her. She believed that Chen Xuanxuan would not dare to hit her even if he drove an armored vehicle.
Lu Boyan leaned leisurely on the soft and comfortable backrest: "She will never appear in front of you again."
Su Jianan's eyes were shining: "So I want to kiss you."
Lu Boyan curled his lips and casually brushed a lock of her long hair: "It's not convenient now. When it's over and you go home, you can do whatever you want, okay?"
Su Jianan was stunned, her face immediately turned red, and she pushed Lu Boyan: "Rogue."
At 6:45, the car stopped in front of the hotel.
In Lu's 10th anniversary celebration, not only the big names in the business world will show up, but also the major stars of Lu's media will be there in their best attires. The head of the family, Han Ruoxi, even announced that she will come back from abroad specially.
Not to mention the gossip about other celebrities, just the triangular relationship between Lu Boyan and his wife and Han Ruoxi, and who can win over Han Ruoxi and Su Jianan tonight, this celebration is interesting enough.
Lu sent out invitations to all major media outlets, and reporters arrived with cameras at noon. As soon as Lu Boyan's car stopped, reporters and cameras swarmed over.
Su Jian'an had never seen such a big battle before, and her legs were weak unconsciously: "Why, why are there so many reporters? Didn't it say in the event planning that you would be interviewed?"
"This is customary." Lu Boyan reassured her, "Shen Yuechuan has already taken care of it. They won't ask you too many questions. Just follow me."
Su Jian'an took a deep breath in anxiety—it's here now, so we can't show cowardice and embarrass Lu Boyan!
She nodded. Lu Boyan opened the door and got out of the car. Uncle Qian also got down and opened the door for her.
Lu Boyan came around and stretched out his hand to her—
I have to say that his hands are really beautiful, with long knuckles and broad palms. They seem to have infinite power, which makes Su Jianan feel inexplicably at ease.
She took Lu Boyan's hand and got out of the car, holding her arm with him. Reporters and cameras surrounded them almost at that moment.
"Mr. Lu, on the tenth anniversary of the Lu family, do you have anything to say?"
"Mr. Lu, regarding the current real estate market, you..."
"Mr. Lu..."
Countless questions were thrown at Lu Boyan, nothing more than those things in the mall. It's surprising that Lu Boyan actually remembered what the reporters asked and gave short but unambiguous answers one by one. He was personable and charming. .
Su Jianan read an article by a media person. She said that she liked interviewing Lu Boyan the most, even though he rarely gave interviews.
Needless to say, he was handsome, mainly because Lu Boyan would answer all the questions he could answer. Although his words were concise and to the point, he was not perfunctory. Although you couldn't get close to him after an interview, he was always polite and gentlemanly, and his words and demeanor were very charming.
As for those questions that he couldn't answer, his secretary would greet the reporters right from the beginning, and no one would dare to risk asking him during the interview.
Su Jianan slowly understood that even a woman like Han Ruoxi was devoted to Lu Boyan, maybe not just because of his face.
But why was Lu Boyan never as gentlemanly and polite to her as the legend said!
"Eh? Mrs. Lu -" Suddenly, a reporter changed the topic, "Are your diamond necklaces and rings made of the diamond that Mr. Lu bought four months ago?"
An unexpected remark instantly diverted the attention of all reporters.
Four months ago, Lu Boyan bought the diamond at a sky-high price, but reporters were unable to interview him. The whole world guessed that he wanted to give it to Han Ruoxi to make her smile. At that time, he showed no sign of getting married.
Today, that diamond was turned into a unique piece of jewelry and appeared on Su Jianan.
The reporters were excited. Han Ruoxi's face should be burning and hurting now!
"Mr. Lu! Did you originally buy this diamond for Mrs. Lu?"
Su Jianan's hands tightened - she was afraid of hearing Lu Boyan deny it.
"Yes." Lu Boyan's answer was still concise and to the point.
The camera snapped at Su Jian'an, and the reporters seemed to have unearthed some shocking information: "Why? Is it because this diamond is unique?"
"Yes." Lu Boyan looked at Su Jianan and smiled, "And it suits my wife very well."
"Mr. Lu -" the reporter had forgotten the questions he had originally prepared and kept digging for information about him and Su Jianan, "When did you and your wife meet?"
"Fourteen years ago."
"Wow -" the reporter exclaimed, "Mrs. Lu, so you and Mr. Lu are childhood sweethearts?"
Su Jianan's face had already turned red, and she was even more at a loss when she was asked this question. Lu Boyan hugged her gently and said in her ear: "Don't be nervous. We will go in after you answer this question."
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Shen Yuechuan knew that if the interview continued the reporters would ask about the details of Lu Boyan and Su Jianan's relationship. He was afraid that Su Jianan would not be able to handle the shrewd and tricky reporters, so he had already called security.
Su Jianan really couldn't bear it any longer. She pursed her lips and finally said, "We just knew each other when we were kids."
"Mrs. Lu, when did you get together? When did Mr. Lu propose to you?"
Sure enough, when she asked about the details, Su Jianan became even more at a loss, but she felt Lu Boyan hug her tighter. She felt inexplicably relieved. At this time, the security guard finally came over and opened a way for them through the encirclement.
Lu Boyan walked onto the red carpet and walked into the hotel with Su Jianan in his arms. The spotlights were still flashing and the cameras were clicking almost non-stop.
Various online media wrote press releases almost immediately and posted them on their respective portals. The red headlines were particularly eye-catching:
The truth behind Lu Boyan’s purchase of diamonds at a sky-high price: To customize jewelry for his beloved wife.
The gossip forum suddenly exploded. True fans rushed to Han Ruoxi's Weibo to leave messages of comfort. Some who didn't like Han Ruoxi naturally posted to vent their inner happiness: "Han Ruoxi was slapped in the face hahahahaha."
As expected by the media, Lu's anniversary celebration was very lively, and violent news broke out just at the beginning.
They believe that what comes next will only be more exciting. (To be continued)
