Chapter 361 Year
After dinner, Li Zhen asked for Xu Fanghua's consent and was planning to take them to Cuiyuzhuang to celebrate the New Year together. At this time, Wang Yaning called Xu Fanghua and said that she was going to the temple fair with Lin Huanxi's mother and asked her if she wanted to join them.
It just so happened that they would pass by Guangyuezunfu on their way to the temple fair, so Xu Fanghua readily agreed.
About forty minutes later, Lu Xingchen and Li Zhen were downstairs, seeing Xu Fanghua off to Wang Yaning and her friends' car. After wishing each other a happy new year, everyone split up into two groups.
Watching the elders' car drive away, Li Zhen casually took Lu Xingchen's hand, turned to look at her and asked, "Would you like to go shopping somewhere?"
Normally they are both busy with work and have a rare moment of free time, so I don't know where they go.
"There's nothing to do in the mall, and many stores are closed. Where should I go?"
"I heard that the peach blossoms by the river are blooming. Do you want to go and see them?"
"Okay."
As they talked, the two of them walked towards the garage. Li Zhen suddenly thought of something and took out a red envelope from his inner pocket and gave it to her: "New Year's money."
Lu Xingchen looked at the red envelope wrapped in the pattern of this year's zodiac for a moment, took it with a smile, and said in Cantonese: "Congratulations on your wealth, good luck, good health, and continuous promotion!"
Li Zhen pulled her over and kissed her on the forehead. "Until you become an old lady, I will give you New Year's gifts every year to ward off evil spirits, avoid disasters, and pray for blessings."
He still remembers her words until today. Lu Xingchen suddenly said, "Before we go to enjoy the flowers, I want to get something from you first."
"what?"
"My stuff." Lu Xingchen kept it a secret and pulled him towards the building where he lived.
Because it was already common knowledge that the two were together, for safety reasons, the password to Li Zhen's door was changed from Lu Xingchen's birthday to the day of their first love.
Lu Xingchen entered the password and entered the room. Li Zhen followed her. Seeing her hurriedly change her shoes and run in, he closed the door with amusement, changed his shoes slowly at the entrance, and came in.
There was no trace of Lu Xingchen in the room. Li Zhen didn't know which room she had entered. He continued to pace and went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water. When he finished drinking the water, Lu Xingchen didn't come out, so he walked towards the master bedroom.
"Did you find what you were looking for?"
He still didn't see anyone in the master bedroom. He looked in the bathroom again and saw that the light was off. "Xingchen, did you find what you were looking for? Do you want me to help you find it?"
As she spoke, she came to the door of the cloakroom and saw Lu Xingchen holding a small stack of red envelopes in her hand. Not only that, she had also changed into a new set of clothes.
The clothes were what she had left in his rental house when they were together. After they broke up, he was going to throw them away, but he couldn't bear to do so. Not only was he reluctant to do so, he even kept them with him during his multiple moves.
Lu Xingchen's body shape has not changed much from when she was in college, except that she is a little thinner. Putting that set of clothes on her makes her seem to have returned to her old appearance. Li Zhen seemed to see Lu Xingchen at that time and for a moment he almost forgot to breathe.
"These are all red envelopes for me, right?" Lu Xingchen showed a mischievous look on his face as he showed his hands full of red envelopes.
Li Zhen took a deep breath quietly, and there was no reason to deny it, so he nodded. His eyes were fixed on her, and he refused to look away for a moment.
"Including this year's, there are ten in total. We have known each other for ten years." Lu Xingchen counted the red envelopes as if they were treasures.
It really is the tenth year. Li Zhen couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He watched Lu Xingchen take out the oldest and thinnest red envelope from the ten red envelopes and asked him with a smile: "This is the red envelope you asked me to give you as New Year's money when I first pursued you, right?"
When Li Zhen saw this, he couldn't help but retract his gaze from her, and took two steps towards her with a little embarrassment, already guessing what she was going to say.
Sure enough, Lu Xingchen said, "Hey, I remember that year when I asked you to give me a red envelope, you ignored me and told me to stay away from you coldly. I didn't expect that you actually listened to me in private and not only gave me this red envelope, but also gave me one hundred and one. Did you think I was one in a hundred?"
Li Zhen smiled unhappily, "More than one in a hundred, this is the only amount of red envelopes I could give at the time."
"So, you liked me from the beginning?"
"It wasn't at the beginning, it was just... gradually I couldn't help it anymore, I liked it so much."
Lu Xingchen's smile deepened. "If you had enough money at that time, how big a red envelope would you give me?"
"All."
"now what?"
"It's still all of it, but..." Li Zhen's eyes were fixed on her face, "Now you have to give me one more..."
As he said that, he pulled her over and kissed her on the lips. Lu Xingchen thought it would only be for a moment, after all, they both still had to go see the peach blossoms. But he kissed her deeply, using the tip of his tongue to pry open her lips and teeth. Lu Xingchen was a little flustered, hugged the red envelopes in her arms, and stepped back away from his hot lips.
"Aren't you going out?"
"I'm afraid I can't get out for the moment." Li Zhen looked at the clothes on her body, his eyes fiery, "You look more seductive in this than in a uniform..." After saying that, he hugged her back into his arms, took another look at her clothes, and when his eyes fell back on her face, he kissed her again.
Seeing the situation, Lu Xingchen had no choice but to put the red envelope in his hand on the cabinet behind him.
Li Zhen couldn't wait for a moment, and pushed his body forward with her. There was a cabinet behind Lu Xingchen's waist, and it was hard in front and back. She cried out softly, and Li Zhen hugged her legs and lifted her onto the cabinet.
then……
It took the two of them half a day to get from the cloakroom to the big bed in the master bedroom. They couldn't go to appreciate the peach blossoms that they had originally planned to see today.
Lu Xingchen almost forgot about the topic of marriage last night.
Until she followed Li Zhen to the Jade Manor to celebrate the New Year. That night, Li Zhen's aunt's family and other relatives also came to eat together. When the adults in the family saw her and Li Zhen, they almost always asked:
"Li Zhen, when are you and Xing Zhen getting married? We are still waiting for the wedding!"
"You're almost thirty, it's time to get married."
"Your mother has long been looking forward to you giving birth to a child for her to take care of. Otherwise, why don't you just take some time to get married and have a child, and then continue with your career."
Lu Xingchen thought it was okay at first, but because she had discussed this topic with Li Zhen last night, she couldn't help but listen to it. However, she just smiled and didn't directly answer the elders' words. Instead, Li Zhen knew that she was a little bothered and told the relatives: "I'm not in a hurry. I don't plan to get married so soon."
Wang Yaning just glanced at him without saying anything and went on to talk to someone else.
But his aunt Wang Yajuan was straightforward and said, "Don't worry. Your mother was in the temple today, praying to you for marriage and children. You and Xingchen have known each other for so many years. Our whole family is looking forward to your marriage and adding a child to our Li family!"
Lu Xingchen: “…”
