Gu Lian fell asleep contentedly, leaving Lu Zechen miserable all night.
Early the next morning, the two of them met. One was in high spirits, the other was full of sadness.
There was nothing much to say, both of them were busy. Lu Zechen's attention was focused on the 100-day banquet, and he didn't care about what Gu Lian was busy with for a moment.
Until the day of the banquet, he didn't go out all day, just waiting to pick them up.
Gu Lian deliberately took Fang Jing to meet someone at night, and got up early to give the boy two sets of clothing.
Before going out, she put the box containing the lapel pin in her pocket to avoid being seen in advance.
When she arrived at the office building, there was still a large area of dirt inside. Seeing that she still had enough time, she took off her coat and contacted the cleaning staff.
As soon as Fang Jing fell asleep, he looked at the pile of bags inside and started to pull them out.
Gu Lian didn't pay attention to him and walked out alone to make a phone call.
Fang Jingyi squinted his eyes and pulled out a bunch of things. He glanced around and saw a black suede box under the hanger.
He took it over and took a look, and the novice opened it.
Lapel pin?
"Sister, you have pretty good taste."
Gu Lian didn't see what he was holding outside, so she thought he was talking about clothes and responded hastily.
The boy took off the lapel pin and threw the box into a clothes bag.
After Gu Lian made the call, he immediately received an urging call from Lu Zechen.
She hurriedly walked in, took her coat, put it on, and told Fang Jingyi, "Xiao Sheng will come to pick you up later, you go with her."
"I don't……"
"Stop being so nagging, just do as you're told, or I'll return the goods." Gu Lian threatened.
Fang Jingyi: "..."
The young man hummed twice and said no more.
Lu Zechen was busy on the phone, so Gu Lian had to quickly go downstairs and drive back to Xicheng.
When they arrived at the door, everything was ready. Lu Zechen stood at the front of the car. Watching her get off, he couldn't help but ask: "Where have you been?"
The matter hadn't been settled yet, and Gu Lian didn't want to tell him, lest he step in to help her.
"In the store."
"Hurry up and get in the car."
Lu Zechen opened the car door for her personally and made a gesture of invitation.
Gu Lian brushed away the stray hair from her cheeks, passed by him, and leaned into the car.
As soon as she sat down, Lu Zechen sat in and carried all the bags in the back seat to her.
"What's this?"
"Dress."
Gu Lian was surprised. She didn't expect that he would remember to prepare this for her. She had originally planned to attend in regular clothes.
When I opened it, I saw that there were even nipple pasties inside, so it was very well prepared.
She hugged her clothes tightly and changed immediately. It was still early anyway, so she had to play around with Song Xiang and the others on the boat. It was still early for the dinner.
Lu Zechen sat next to her and kept making various phone calls to arrange guests.
In the middle of the process, he wanted to tidy up his clothes, so he put his phone on speakerphone, and a call came in with the word "Ran Ran" on it.
"elder brother?"
"Is something wrong?"
"Just give me an invitation, but I still want to take my classmates there, so why don't you give me another one?"
"You just bring people on board." Lu Zechen didn't even think about it.
Ke Ranran's voice was excited and she called "sister-in-law" through the phone.
Gu Lian was a little embarrassed and did not respond.
The little girl thought for a moment and then said: "Brother, I met your third sister this morning, and she also said she wanted to bring friends. Can I..."
Lu Zechen didn't even remember who the third sister she was talking about was, but she was probably a relative in the family.
On an occasion like tonight, he wished that more people would come to witness it. Without even thinking about it, he said, "You can just bring people up as you wish."
