Part Three, Chapter 135: Visiting Family 5
so I owe her a favor."He wouldn't say too much about the unpleasant things in front of her."Did she used to like you Is she trying to come back to you now" Lu Yaoyao pointed out the root of the probl...He was a sycophant, and Song Jingye liked him too.
Looking at her and his mother poring over the jewelry, it was clear she had no idea what she was looking at. But she managed to follow her mother's conversation, nodding frequently with an impressed expression on her face, which made her mother very happy. Unknowingly, they talked for a long time, far removed from the coldness she had displayed when she first came in.
After a while, the nanny and the cleaner tidied up the house inside and out and left. His father came back just then.
Mr. Song was one hundred percent satisfied with his son, Song Jingye. The young man was upright and decisive in his actions, acting swiftly and efficiently. If he continued on this path, and avoided major mistakes, his future in officialdom was bright. He might even surpass his father's achievements, excelling beyond him.
The two chatted for a while, and the nanny came to call them for lunch.
When Song Jingye came out of the study, it was a different scene outside. Chen Ling was sitting next to his mother, chatting and laughing. In front of them was an album.
Chen Ning couldn't help but smile when she saw him.
Song Jingye's face darkened. Seeing the photo album, he knew his mother had brought out his childhood photos to show off again.
Song's mother ignored his sullen face and flipped through the photo album, introducing Chen Ling, "Look how handsome he was when he was a child."
"Chubby and rotund, the several children in the courtyard all called him Song Pang."
"I was worried he might have psychological problems because of being called fat."
But he didn't care at all, you see now, inspirational or not He's in such good shape.
Chen Ling nodded frequently, agreeing that her figure was great. After all, she was the best witness to that fact.
Thinking of his rigid abdomen, her face flushed slightly.
When Song's mother boasted about her son, she spared no effort. In the end, it was Song's father who interrupted her and told them to go to the table for dinner.
At the dinner table, Song's mother kept serving Chen Ning dishes and encouraging her to eat more. She treated her like her own daughter, a complete contrast to her previous attitude.
This left Song Jingye incredibly curious, unable to guess how Chen Ling could have made his mother change her attitude so quickly.
"You can still have your wedding at that squad leader's restaurant, right Since there's not much time before the new year, how about setting it for New Year's Day three That gives us four or five days to prepare."
"Okay, I'll contact the squad leader in a bit." Chen Ling replied, as if Song Jingye was no longer a concern.
After dinner, the two left Song's house. Song Jingye, who had been curious all night, finally asked, "What's going on between you and my mom"
That's too abnormal.
Chen Ning smiled but said nothing in reply.
Song Jingye turned the steering wheel, occasionally glancing at her from the corner of his eye. Seeing that she remained silent, he suddenly pulled over to the roadside, much like last time, pretending to pull her from the passenger seat into his arms.
The seatbelt button has been unbuckled.
Under the bright sunshine, with cars and people bustling around, Chen Ling turned her face away, blocking his hand from touching her. She surrendered: "There's nothing, your mother is easy to please, just say what she wants to hear."
Her face was slightly flushed, not sure if it was because of Song Jingye's actions, or because she thought about what she had said to his mother.
Song Jingye stopped his hand from grabbing her, understandingly said: "Go along with her words Agree to give her grandchildren"
Chen Ling nodded. "What I mean is to focus on getting my body in peak condition these next two years. Then, after returning to the country, things will naturally fall into place."
"Have you asked the other party's opinion" Song Jingye pinched her cheek, turned the steering wheel and stepped on the gas pedal.
"Would you" Chen Ling asked back.
"Since you've all made your decision, what choice do I have but to agree" He could see that Chen Ling was going to spend more time with her mother. In this house, he probably wouldn't have a say anymore.
The class monitor, upon hearing that they wanted to hold their wedding at his restaurant on the third day of Lunar New Year's, immediately patted his chest and said, "No problem, you don't have to worry about anything. I'll take care of everything from the wedding venue setup, to the dishes, to the gifts. You just need to come over as the bride and groom."
The monitor was so happy, like he was getting married himself, and these things were simple, they had already been decided last time.
Chen Ling asked back, "Won't not making an appointment in advance affect your business"
The class monitor said, "My younger sister is getting married. I wouldn't even do a big business deal."
Then Chen Ning smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what others think. My wedding must be held at my brother's restaurant."
The monitor said, “That’s right.”
The wedding venue has been decided, and Chen Ning immediately called Xu Haichen and Teacher Zhang and Teacher Liang to invite them to the wedding.
Extremely busy.
Song Jingye listened to her making various phone calls. He was just holding his phone and typing messages, besides inviting Zheng Ke and several comrades-in-arms, he also sent a few words in Lu Kuojian's so-called "Four Young Masters of Beijing" group: January 3rd, wedding.
Lu Kuo replied first, as always, enthusiastically and jokingly: "Oh, welcome to the ranks of married men. From now on, you'll have someone to take care of you when you're drunk."
The second reply was from Gu Ruandong. He was a bit cold and aloof, only giving an "OK" gesture without any extra words.
Last is Zhuo Yu'an, polite yet distant: "Congratulations, you must have arrived on time."
He had just put down his phone when he heard Chen Ning beside him exclaim, "Yao Yao added me to a group."
Song Jingye glanced at her phone. The group name was "The Most Beautiful Fairy Group," with 4 members: Yaoyao, her, Lawyer Shu, and a stranger on WeChat. She guessed it was Lu Kuai's wife, Ruan Ruan.
Song Jingye smiled when he saw the group name. This was a name that Yaoyao could come up with, really like a brother and sister to Lu Kuò.
As the Lunar New Year is approaching, members from both groups have gradually returned to Beijing for the holiday.
Chen Ling replied strangely: "Why build two groups, isn't it better to pull them all into one group"
Song Jingye: "Well, Lu Kuo and YaoYao think that even as a couple, you should have your own circle."
It's best to share videos of drunken shenanigans within your own groups and keep them away from your significant others. It would be embarrassing if they saw them.
Song Jingye surprisingly agreed with Lu Kuo, he also didn't want his video of walking the right path to be seen by Chen Ning.
Chen Ling replied, expressing strong agreement: "I think they're right, couples do need boundaries."
As they were talking, both of their phones rang at the same time.
Lu Kuo: "Since we're all in Beijing, let's get together tonight to celebrate Song Jingye's successful single status."
Lu Kuo drank until neither of them could tell who was winning. He refused to give up.
Yayoyao is also shouting in the fairy group: "Let's find a place to celebrate, welcome Xiaoning back to join us. Isn't it that only Ruanruan in the group doesn't know Xiaoning"
