After taking a nap, Crystal didn't go back and stayed in the office with him.
After Lu Zhan got off work, he took her back to change into clothes suitable for traveling, and Lu Zhan drove to Qin's house.
Tonight, the Qin family's house was brightly lit, and even the musical fountain in the courtyard was turned on. The warm music and the twinkling lights were like stars in the sky, making it very lively.
Lu Zhan led Jing Jing out of the car, and Situ Qingqing greeted him at the door. He reached out to take the gift from Jing Jing's hand and said politely, "It cost you money."
Crystal smiled and said nothing. She looked around and then asked, "Where's Uncle Qin!"
Situ Qingqing led them in and replied: "He has some things to do at the company and will be back soon. Let me entertain you first."
Jing Jing noticed that Lu Zhan's expression had turned pale since he got out of the car, so she squeezed his hand. Then he smiled at her, squeezed her hand in return, and scratched the palm of her hand.
Crystal's face suddenly turned red.
Seeing their interaction in Situ Qingqing's eyes, she felt a little bitter.
If Lu Zhan could smile at her like this and treat her so gently, she would not be willing to leave him.
After all, he was so handsome and outstanding. She never doubted that he would succeed one day, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.
It was painful in my heart that she was already Qin Sheng's wife.
Lu Zhan reluctantly greeted the newlyweds to sit down. Naturally, Lu Zhan was not very talkative. Most of the time, Crystal and Situ Qingqing occasionally talked.
Lu Zhan sat for a while, then suddenly stood up and said to Jing Jing: "I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."
Crystal knew that he was always unhappy, so she nodded lightly. Lu Zhan smiled at her and touched her head.
His actions were seen in Situ Qingqing's eyes, and there was a hint of calculation in those seemingly innocent eyes.
When there were only two women left in the hall, the scene became even more desolate.
Crystal was quite at ease, but Situ Qingqing hesitated for a while before looking at Crystal's flawless face and said, "I never imagined that one day we could have this kind of relationship and sit together to drink tea and have dinner."
Crystal was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized what she meant - Situ Qingqing was still feeling inferior about his background.
It seems that although she has been married to Uncle Qin for several years, she has never been able to integrate into the upper class society.
Crystal picked up the water glass and took a sip, then raised her face and smiled, "I don't understand what Aunt Qin said."
Before, when she had a brief relationship with Qin Pei, although she had been to Qin's house several times, she had never seen Situ Qingqing. It is conceivable that Qin Pei did not like to see this little stepmother.
Life must be difficult! So he was eager to show his status as the mistress of the Qin family in front of her.
Situ Qingqing was a little embarrassed by the words "aunt". If it weren't for an accident, the position next to Lu Zhan should be hers.
Although Crystal knew that Aunt Qin in front of her was not friendly to her, for Uncle Qin's sake, she would not argue with her.
But Situ Qingqing didn't think so. She was deeply jealous of the crystal in front of her. She had a good family background, everything was going smoothly, and she was married to a wealthy businessman.
What worries her the most is that her mother used to be the cook of the Xi family.
How could she let Xi Jingming be her 'daughter-in-law'? This would always remind her of her humble origins.
Crystal couldn't see the imbalance in her heart, and promptly reminded her, "Aunt Qin's surname is Qin, and the man I married is surnamed Lu."
They had never crossed paths in the first place, and I believed that Lu Zhan had no chance of recognizing his ancestor and returning to his clan. Therefore, it was really not appropriate for the woman in front of him to look at her with a defensive look.
She said this, and just as Situ Qingqing was about to say something, Lu Zhan from outside had already come in, followed by Qin Sheng, holding a briefcase in his hand, looking like he had just returned from the company.
Crystal stood up and politely called "Uncle Qin". Qin Sheng looked at her with a smile on his face.
Crystal smiled and walked up to him and kissed him on the cheek. Qin Sheng patted her shoulder and said lovingly: "We Crystal are still good!"
Then he took out a box from his briefcase and said, "You are getting married. This is a meeting gift from my uncle."
When the crystal opened, it turned out to be a set of diamond jewelry. She knew it was worth at least tens of millions at a glance. She quickly closed the box and politely declined: "Uncle, this is too expensive."
Qin Sheng smiled handsomely, "It's not expensive to wear on our little crystal. I'm afraid that this little thing won't get into your grandpa's eyes!"
After he said this, Crystal naturally couldn't say anything more, so they sat down and talked casually for a while.
"Qingqing, go tell the meal!" Although Qin Shenghua was talking to Situ Qingqing, his eyes remained on the faces of Shuijing and Lu Zhan.
Situ Qingqing responded and went out.
"Crystal! I must have two drinks with uncle later." Qin Sheng was in a good mood. It's rare that Lu Zhan was willing to come back and didn't say sarcastic words to him. It's all because of how well this kid has been trained by Crystal!
I think it's just around the corner to have a grandson in my arms someday, so I feel even more love for Crystal in my heart.
After a while, Situ Qingqing, who had gone out, came back with two bottles of red wine in his hand. He smiled and said to Lu Zhan and Jing Shuang: "This is what Sheng has been keeping. If you come today, I don't think he will object to opening it."
.”
She smiled coquettishly and looked at Qin Sheng again, "Sheng, do you think so?"
At this time, she happened to be standing next to Qin Sheng, and Qin Sheng easily pulled her body closer, and then kissed her cheek. Situ Qingqing's face suddenly turned red.
The two played the loving role of an old husband and a young wife very well.
Crystal smiled slightly, while Lu Zhan had a calm face. In fact, he had no feelings for Situ Qingqing.
Maybe there was some resentment in the past, but now I can no longer find that feeling, and I have even forgotten it.
Could it be that he didn't care anymore after Crystal got together with him?
Situ Qingqing went to instruct his subordinates to decorate the restaurant, while Jing Shuang was still chatting with Qin Sheng about her daily life. There was a faint smile on her face, and she had a sense of intimacy that was different from facing strangers, which made her
The whole little face is very touching.
Lu Zhan looked at it and felt wet in his heart.
They were sitting together, her hand was placed beside his, and Lu Zhan's hand could hold hers with just one movement, and he really did so, interlocking their fingers.
The crystal was held by him, and he turned his head in surprise, while he smiled slightly, his always elegant face like the spring breeze blowing on his face.
Crystal smiled sweetly, only staying on his face for half a second before turning back to talk to Qin Sheng.
The interaction between the young couple naturally fell in Qin Sheng's eyes, and he nodded with satisfaction.
The restaurant over there was ready. Situ Qingqing asked his servants to call, and they naturally moved into the restaurant.
Situ Qingqing also finished his work, and everyone took their seats according to their status.
In front of everyone was a crystal cup with three-thirds full of red wine. Situ Qingqing smiled and said to the crystal: "Your uncle always said that you are picky. If you don't bring the best today, you won't be able to drink it."
of."
Her tone was full of the attitude of an elder towards a junior. Crystal smiled a little and said vaguely, "Thank you, Aunt Qin."
Situ Qingqing's pretty face froze, and her expression suddenly returned to normal, "We are all one family, no need to thank you."
Qin Sheng seemed quite satisfied with her words. With a faint smile on his face, he raised his cup and said, "I wish you a happy wedding!"
Crystal happily raised her glass. Although Lu Zhan had a cold attitude, he still gave him some face.
After dinner, the atmosphere was not bad. Crystal drank two glasses in a row. Lu Zhan saw her slightly red cheeks and reached out to touch her forehead and scolded: "If you can't drink it, don't drink it. Look,
You're all sweating."
It was almost late autumn at this time, so he really shouldn't be sweating, and Crystal had already taken off his jacket.
Lu Zhan was careless for a moment and didn't even think of it.
Situ Qingqing, on the side, had his palms wet with sweat and asked nervously, "Is Crystal a little tired? How about going to the guest room upstairs to take a rest!"
Crystal's face was slightly red, and she looked slightly drunk. She shook her head gently, "No need!"
She knew that she was not drunk, she was just leaning against Lu Zhan like this. She felt that his body was so comfortable, and she just wanted to lean against him like this.
Lu Zhan stretched out his hand to straighten her up a little. Crystal left his body, a little disappointed, and looked at him with a confused look in his eyes.
Lu Zhan naturally saw the desire in her eyes, and he couldn't help but tense up when he thought of her crazy behavior every time she was tipsy.
But now is really not a good time!
Lu Zhan looked at his watch and saw that it was only eight o'clock. He thought that he could leave in half an hour.
Situ Qingqing saw the unusual crimson color on the crystal surface, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
At this time, a servant happened to bring a snow-topped crystal containing green crystals. It was Qin Sheng who sent the crystals to relieve the hangover.
Situ Qingqing went to bring it in person, walked to Crystal and handed it to her, "This tea is the best for hangovers."
Crystal reached out to pick it up, and when their fingers crossed, an accident happened.
Before Crystal received it, Situ Qingqing's hand loosened, and the tea spilled directly onto Crystal's wool skirt, instantly staining it with a brown stain.
She quickly apologized and smiled, "I'm sorry, I was not careful."
Crystal's head was a little dizzy, so she didn't think deeply about it.
Situ Qingqing looked at Qin Sheng sideways, with an expression like a child who had done something wrong, "Sheng, it's not good for me to do this all the time."
There was a hint of grievance in the words.
Qin Sheng smiled and said, "Crystal doesn't blame you, you are still an aunt! You are so careless and timid." There was a touch of endearment in his words, and he even pulled her into his arms.
A young woman who got her husband's understanding quickly stood up and said to Jing Jing: "I'll take you to clean it!"
Crystal glanced at Lu Zhan, he patted her hand and let her go.
Situ Qingqing brought Crystal to the guest room on the second floor, opened the door for her, smiled gently, "I'll get you some clothes."
Crystal stroked her forehead and nodded.
After Situ Qingqing left, she held the door panel and walked slowly inside.
There was no light on in the guest room. Crystal walked in dizzy. She fumbled to turn on the light, but she clearly remembered being here, so why wasn't it there?
