When Lu Lixing entered the room gently, he made Mr. Lu and Aunt Pei jump, thinking that something happened, and after listening to Lu Lixing's explanation, he felt relieved.
After carrying him to the room, Lu Lixing was called to the study by Mr. Lu.
"Li Xing, grandpa came to you today because he wanted to talk to you about something light."
"You say."
Grandpa and grandson sat down on the sofa.
The old man wrapped around the forty-nine Buddhist beads that Ji Qingqing and Lu Lixing bought for him together. After a moment of thought, he said, "Since you woke up, Grandpa hasn't talked to you. You are finally free today. Grandpa wants to ask you, what do you think of this girl Qingqing?"
"Grandpa, you..."
"Don't talk about him with me, you just need to tell me honestly, what do you think of Qingqing."
Lu Lixing was silent for a moment.
Mr. Lu looked at his silent expression and sighed, "When you came back from the hospital that day, I also asked you in front of Qingqing's face, would you like to marry her and take care of her for the rest of your life? You told me at that time It's your will."
"Yes, I am willing."
"Then after getting along with each other for the past few days, can you tell me what's going on with this girl Qingqing?"
Lu Lixing thought for a while, "She's pretty good, she's a little smart, although she's sometimes out of tune, but all in all, she's lively, kind, and a good girl."
"You don't reject her?"
"I don't hate her."
Mr. Lu nodded, "Then are you willing to accept her from the bottom of your heart?"
Lu Lixing lowered his eyes, and his long eyebrows covered the tenderness in his pupils, "She's fine."
Although usually a little noisy, compared to the women he had been in contact with before, Lu Lixing admitted that she was the most comfortable one.
There is no pressure to get along with each other, and even a faint sense of joy and relaxation.
"I gave you time to get to know her. I believe that through these two days, I have a general understanding of you. You are your wife and the person who will spend the rest of my life with you in the future. If you have a little dislike in your heart If she is unwilling to accept her, then you and her will not have a happy future, and she will suffer in vain if she stays by your side, and grandpa will not force her to stay at the Lu family and stay by your side."
"Grandpa is someone from here." Speaking of this, Mr. Lu said with a beaming smile: "It was the same with your grandma back then. Although I married her without any emotional basis, she couldn't leave me after less than a month of contact with me." But back then she rejected me a little bit and hated me, so I couldn't be together with her."
Lu Lixing knew that Mr. Lu was old and nostalgic, so he liked to talk about the past when he had nothing to do.
"But if you are sincerely willing to accept her, then it's time to prepare for the marriage proposal."
"Propose marriage?"
"Of course, do you want to just live in the Lu family for the rest of your life? You bastard, what did your grandma and I teach you? How important is a girl's innocence? She has no name and no relationship now. You live in a room, and you haven't thought about getting married yet?"
"I didn't mean that, Grandpa, I just felt...a little sudden."
"Not suddenly, some things should be taken care of. Although Qingqing lives with you, she hasn't made it public yet. She also has parents and a family. When you two get married, it's not just about the two of you. , is also a combination of two families, she is your wife, and of course her parents are also your parents, the marriage should be settled as soon as possible, and there will be less gossip outside."
Ji Qingqing's family...
Lu Lixing was slightly taken aback, and also a little curious about what kind of family Ji Qingqing lived in since childhood.
"I've checked. Qingqing is a filial child. Over the years, he has helped a lot of his family. Discuss with Qingqing to see when is the right time to visit."
Lu Lixing moved his mouth and wanted to speak, but was immediately blocked by Mr. Lu.
"Let me put your work aside for now. Are so many people raised by the company just for food? You have to make up your mind about everything? You used to be alone, but now that you have a family, you can't ignore your family and leave work. Time will come back, rest at home on weekends, don't be like before, arriving home in the early morning, leaving early and returning late, and not seeing anyone for ten days and a half months."
Seeing that there was no reply, Mr. Lu frowned, and said again: "You can't make enough money. Such a big company won't collapse even if you're not around for a month. You don't need to worry about everything."
After being scolded by Mr. Lu, Lu Lixing sighed helplessly, "Don't worry, Grandpa, I will discuss this matter with Qingqing."
"Well, let's settle this matter first," Mr. Lu twirled the prayer beads, "you should discuss the details yourself, since you are all grown-ups, I don't need to help you with this matter."
Lu Lixing got up, "Then I'm going out first if there's nothing else to do."
Mr. Lu waved his hand, with a satisfied smile on his face.
When Lu Lixing came out of the study, he bumped into Aunt Pei just as he opened the door.
"Aunt Pei, you are..."
Aunt Pei glanced at the study, smiled mysteriously at Lu Lixing, closed the door of the study, lowered her voice, and asked, "Did the old man mention to you about going to his wife's house to propose marriage?"
Lu Lixing nodded.
Seeing him nodding, Aunt Pei smiled even more, "I have expected it a long time ago, so I will help you prepare all the gifts for meeting your parents in advance. Don't worry about Aunt Pei's business, the gifts you prepare will not go wrong. , if you want to go someday, just take the gift and go, it’s very convenient.”
Auntie Pei took care of Lu Lixing when she was young. She has never married and had children for so many years. She has long regarded him as her own son. Her only wish is to see him get married and start a business. She finally married a wife and was busy with the marriage. In the end, I always felt that Lu Lixing was a man who couldn't do everything.
Lu Lixing also knew Aunt Pei's kindness, so he smiled helplessly, "I'm really sorry for your inconvenience."
"Tell Aunt Pei whether it's troublesome or not. Young master, if you can settle this marriage as soon as possible, it can be regarded as an explanation to the old man and to the wife. No matter how much you talk to your wife, no matter how much you promise, no matter how much you do. , that's more important than not being able to give my wife a wedding."
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
Aunt Pei left satisfied.
Lu Lixing went back to his study, and took another look at Ji Qingqing's resume that was transferred from Tianyu Entertainment.
His parents are alive, he has a younger brother and younger sister, and his family background is average.
meet parents...
Chewing these three words back and forth in his mouth, looking at the photo of a family of five on the information, Lu Lixing fell into a long silence.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Ji Weiwei woke up in a daze.
I was so excited last night that I didn't get enough sleep. My aunt came back in the morning and felt bad all day. In addition to the early morning commute to the company and the studio, her eyelids couldn't hold up soon after getting in the car.
Turned over and went back to sleep again, then opened my eyes, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sunlight outside the window was a bit dim.
There was a WeChat message from Lu Lixing on the phone: Are you up yet
Ji Qingyuan went back to the past: get up.
After returning, he threw the phone aside and went into the bathroom. When he came out, he was about to take a look at the phone when Lu Lixing pushed the door open and entered.
"feel better now?"
Ji Qingqing remembered the intimate behavior between herself and Lu Lixing in the car, and blushed, "It's much better."
"Well, there is something I want you to discuss."
Lu Lixing took off his suit jacket and wore a white shirt with a tie neatly tied under his Adam's apple. He wore neat trousers on his legs to make his legs look longer. Just standing there so leisurely, he was so handsome that people couldn't look away.
"What's up?"
"Grandpa asked me to discuss with you, when will I come to meet your parents?" Lu Lixing paused, "I know that people in the entertainment industry don't like to announce your marital status, if you don't want to disclose your married Conditions, then our marriage can be done later."
"Meeting parents? Marriage? So soon?"
Lu Lixing's pupils were slightly deep, and he looked at her deeply, "You don't want to?"
Ji shook his head lightly.
Of course she doesn't want to, okay
She had just arrived here, and she brought Lu Lixing to meet the parents without even knowing what was going on in the original owner's house
She didn't have the courage to be rash if she wasn't ready.
Ji Qingqing's family, the novel doesn't go into too much detail, just mention it briefly, she only vaguely remembers that it is an ordinary family, there seems to be a financial loophole, Ji Qingqing needs to put all the money she earned from the entertainment industry into it Fill in, or the kind that will not be filled in for a while.
The anticipation in Lu Lixing's eyes was swept away, the muscles on his face were tense, and his tone became cold involuntarily, "Why don't you want to?"
Ji Qingqing only felt that the original owner's family was quite a headache, and she couldn't explain it to Lu Lixing for a while, "My family is a bit complicated, how about it, I'll go home another day, I... I'll talk to my parents," She looked at Lu Lixing, "I've been single for so many years, so I can't just bring you back just by saying I will, it's not serious at all!"
Lu Lixing was slightly taken aback, "Seriously?"
"We can't just make preparations. I have to go back and inform my parents so that they can prepare too."
Lu Lixing raised his eyebrows, "Okay, you can arrange this."
Ji Qing nodded casually.
Taking out his mobile phone, he hesitated for a long time on the number marked "Mom", but he still failed to call.
Families in this world are extremely strange to her, and she is not yet ready to face a strange family.
But what Lu Lixing said was right, he always had to see his parents.
After thinking about it again and again, Ji Weiwei plucked up the courage, and when she was about to call, the phone rang.
Caller ID: Mom.
Ji Qingwen answered the phone subconsciously.
"Hey, gently, it's Mom."
"...Mom, what's the matter with you calling?"
"It's something, of course it's something!" Ji's mother didn't hear Ji Qingqing's haste on the other end of the phone, and said with a smile: "Look, how long has it been since you sent money home? Your brother and sister want money for college, you Dad’s old problem happened again, and ah, the wall in the living room at home is leaking, I’m looking for the decoration company, hey! You don’t know, that guy said that he would turn over the entire wall for repairs, asking for a sky-high price! Hey... It's all because mom and dad are incompetent."
"Okay, I'll send you the money later."
Mother Ji laughed even harder, "Okay, then mother is waiting for you to send the money. By the way, there is one more thing. Do you have time tomorrow? You haven't been back for a long time. Come back tomorrow for lunch at noon. , a family gathering."
"Tomorrow at noon... free time."
"Well, mom will be waiting for you at noon tomorrow, so come here earlier, Ang?"
"Okay, I must go there early."
"Okay, then you are busy, hang up first."
Ji Qingqing hung up the phone and looked at the transfer records in the phone. Basically, there was one amount every month, about 300,000.
After thinking about it, Ji Qingqing didn't send the money, since she has to go back tomorrow, it's the same when she goes back to check the situation before paying.
Early the next morning, Ji Qingqing drove home alone, rejected Mr. Lu's offer to let Lu Lixing go with him, and returned home with a few gifts specially prepared for her by Aunt Pei.
Along the way, Ji Qingqing was thinking about the original owner's family. Judging from the phone call made by Ji's mother yesterday, she felt that it was not a fuel-efficient lamp. That's it.
After about an hour, I finally arrived at Ji's house.
The original owner's family was quite ordinary. Before Ji Qingqing entered the entertainment industry, the family of five squeezed into an old house of less than 60 square meters. big house.
The elevator went up to the 23rd floor, Ji Qingwei stood outside the house and took a deep breath, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
There was a sound of footsteps in the house, and the door opened with a click.
A middle-aged woman in her fifties smiled and opened the door. Seeing it was Ji Qingqing, she shouted inside: "Her dad, Qingqing is back!"
As he spoke, he went to pick up the gift in her hand.
"Come in, come in, I'm waiting for you!"
Ji Qingqing was urged by Ji's mother to push in the door.
She was very unfamiliar with this, and tried her best to act as if she was at home.
But obviously this meal was not like what Ji's mother said on the phone yesterday, the family gathered together, and there was a young man sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at her with a half-smile.
"What are you doing in a daze, sit down!" Ji's mother took Ji Qingqing's hand and sat on the sofa, pointed at the young man sitting on the sofa, and said, "Do you remember him?"
There was an awkward smile on Ji Qingqing's face.
"You forgot, this is Yu Yang, you dated back then!"
Ji Qingyuan suddenly realized.
Yu Yang.
I remembered.
Isn't this Yu Yang the rich second generation who climbed up after she kicked Lu Liting for being poor and loving the rich
Ji slightly narrowed her eyes, "I have a little impression."
"It's right to have a little impression. Since you are all acquaintances, let's have a good chat here. Mom will go to the kitchen to see how your dad is cooking."
After finishing speaking, Ji's mother swept over the two with ambiguous eyes, gave Yu Yang an encouraging look, smiled and got up and left.
She and Yu Yang were the only ones left in the living room.
Ji Weiwei looked at her ex-boyfriend without moving her expression. He has a good figure, good facial features, a luxurious watch on his hand, and the material of the suit on his body looks quite expensive. His eyebrows and eyes are quite presumptuous. He is a rich second generation. standard configuration.
If she remembered correctly, the ex-boyfriend lost his freshness within a few days after chasing Ji Qingqing, and kicked him with one kick.
Such a man who kicked as soon as he said he would kick him, turned around and looked for his ex-girlfriend
What are you doing
For a while, Ji Qingqing didn't speak.
After a while, the same ex-boyfriend greeted Ji Qingqing, and looked at Ji Qingqing with presumptuous eyes, "Long time no see, Qingqing, you are getting more and more beautiful."
"Are you coming to my house for something?"
"Can't I come and see you?"
Ji sneered lightly, "I said Yu Yang, don't go around in circles, what kind of Liaozhai is a thousand-year-old fox, we have been separated for so many years, and we know each other very well?"
"Look at what you said, once you meet, even if you break up, you can still be friends, right?"
Ji Qingwei didn't bother to talk to him.
Yu Yang smiled, approached her, and said in a low voice: "I heard that you haven't been doing very well in the entertainment industry recently, let's get to know each other anyway, I still have some contacts in the entertainment industry, I also know a few of you at Tianyu Entertainment Personally, if you need my help, just say it."
Ji Qingwei was amused, and followed his words, "Oh? Do you still know someone in Tianyu?"
"Of course, they are all high-level people with a lot of resources. I will introduce you to them in the future. As long as you get to know them, your life in Tianyu will be easier in the future. No one can bully you. You can have as many resources as you want."
This tone is quite loud.
"So kind?"
"Of course, who do you think I am? I just want to help you."
"There is no such thing as a pie in the sky." Ji glanced at him lightly, "If you have any request, just say it."
"What can I ask for? Now I just think back to the beginning, and I regret that I didn't treat our relationship well." This is ambiguous, and the meaning is self-evident.
Ji slightly raised his eyebrows, "So?"
Yu Yang paused, and said in a low voice, "Give me another chance to pursue you, okay?"
Ji Qing gave him a blank look, this dude rich second generation, don't look at his serious and affectionate speech, in fact, there is a lot of bad water in his stomach, from the bottom of his heart, he doesn't like them stars in the entertainment industry, so he wants to chase them over for fun That's all.
It's not uncommon for a lot of female stars to fall into his hands, and it's not uncommon for them to pat their butts and leave after playing.
"I'm sorry, I won't fall into the same trap twice. If there's nothing wrong, you'd better go back early, and I won't keep you for dinner."
Just as Ji Qingqing finished speaking, Ji's mother, who was eavesdropping on the corner of the wall, hurried over.
"Gently, what are you talking about, child! Yu Yang, don't listen to her, eat at Auntie's, and leave after eating."
"But it seems to me that Qingqing doesn't welcome me very much. I'll come again next time."
"Why not next time, this meal is ready! This is Auntie's house, Auntie is in charge, you go wash your hands first, and you will eat right away."
Yu Yang was urged to go to the bathroom by Ji's mother. As soon as he left, Ji's mother grabbed Ji Qingqing's hand and said in a low voice, "You child, what are you doing?"
"I still want to ask you what you are doing? Where did he come from?"
"You don't care when he came! Let me tell you, treat Yu Yang with a better attitude, don't put on your face, smile more," Ji's mother glanced in the direction of the bathroom, and said with a smile, "I see, He has that kind of thought for you, so he must want to chase you."
"But I don't care about him."
Mother Ji clicked her tongue, "Do you know the conditions of Yu Yang's family? If he pursues you now, you should agree to him. Where else can you find someone with better conditions than Yu Yang?"
Ji Qing didn't speak.
"Don't think that if you enter the entertainment industry, you will be fine. You know that Yu Yang's family, who runs a company, has a net worth of more than two billion yuan, do you know that? If you marry into it, you will have nothing to eat and wear for the rest of your life." Worry!"
"I don't have to worry about food and clothing now."
Mother Ji stared at her, "What do you mean you don't have to worry about food and clothing now? You have never seen rich people like them, and you have never experienced the life of such rich people. Sorrow, I will enjoy the blessings of being a rich wife in the future! I am your mother, why don't I think about you, will I still harm you?"
Ji lightly smiled perfunctorily, but did not speak.
A mere two billion makes Ji's mother so excited that she is so anxious for her. If she knows Lu Lixing's one hundred million, wouldn't she be so happy
"Let me tell you, you must take good care of Yu Yang and hold him firmly. As long as you can marry him, you won't have to work hard in the entertainment circle in the future and live a truly good life."
The more you talk, the more boring it gets.
She knew that the mother always thought that her daughter would marry well and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, but she couldn't keep pushing her into a rich man's house, could she
"Okay, Mom, it's his business that he has money and it has nothing to do with me, not to mention that I don't mean anything to him, so don't talk about it anymore."
Seeing her firm expression, Ji's mother dropped her smile, lowered her voice and said sharply: "Ji Qingqing, let me tell you, it's fine if you agree to this matter, if you don't agree, you will never recognize me as your mother for the rest of your life! "
Ji smiled lightly, now why do these parents like to blackmail people by severing ties
"Mom, you said that I'm already this old. Is it appropriate for you to threaten me by saying this?"
She was about to leave.
"Auntie, what's the matter?" Yu Yang came out of the bathroom, smiling like a dog.
"...It's okay, it's okay, she just feels a little uncomfortable." Mother Ji dragged her arm and dragged her to the edge of the table, sat down on the edge of the table, and lowered her voice, "Sit down for me today Have a good meal and don't lose your temper!"
"The braised pork is here!" Ji's father came out of the kitchen with a bowl of hot braised pork.
Just as Ji Qingqing was about to speak, the phone rang.
It was Lu Lixing who called.
"Reached?"
Ji Qingwei glanced at Ji's mother who was staring at her like a tiger, "Here we are, now we are going to go back."
"What's the answer!" Mother Ji said loudly: "After dinner, go shopping with Yu Yang!"
Lu Lixing obviously heard it on the phone, "Yu Yang? Who is it?"
"No one, I won't talk to you for now, I'll call you back later." Ji Qingqing wanted to hang up the phone after speaking.
Ji's mother heard the clue of Ji Qingqing's tone, and snatched her mobile phone, "Hey, I'm Qingqing's mother, let me tell you, my family has a boyfriend, the owner of Zhengxin International Son, let me tell you, from now on, don't think about my family's Qingqing, and don't contact her! Do you understand? "
Lu Lixing raised his eyebrows, looked at the phone screen and didn't speak for a while.
"What are you doing!" Ji Qingqing snatched the phone from Ji's mother.
"What are you doing? I'm telling you, if you don't look at such a good guy like Yu Yang here, you have to look at the messy things outside. You just say, which one of the people you have admired in these years can compare to Yu Yang! "
Yu Yang smiled from one side and said, "Auntie, don't say that, Qingqing has a good eye, and I think the person she likes is not too bad."
"What's the difference? I don't know her yet? Are you looking for crooked melons? None of them are decent!"
Ji Qingqing glared at Yu Yang, then turned around and said to Lu Lixing, "I'm sorry, it was just now..."
"I see," Lu Lixing said with a smile in his voice, which made Ji Qingqing shudder, "There is a man named Yu Yang at your house? Your parents like him very much?"
"I didn't even think about…"
"Don't worry, I'll be there in half an hour, wait for me."
