In the evening, Lu Qingqing came back from school and heard the news about Gong Xu and Du Yiyi's engagement.
Lu Qingqing was startled and quickly called her third brother.
The phone rang for a long time before Huo Yifei picked up.
"Third brother, have you been drinking?" Huo Yifei's drunken voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I haven't had much to drink, what can I do for Third Brother?" Huo Yifei always spoke in such a gentle tone when talking to Lu Qingqing.
"Third brother, do you know about Du Yiyi and Gong Xu's engagement?"
"I know, in fact, their two families have already planned to get married. If there had not been an engagement between the Gong family and you, they would have been engaged long ago." Huo Yifei's tone was desolate and helpless, which made people feel distressed.
"Third brother, if you regret it and want to get Sister Du back, it should be too late now." Lu Qingqing felt that Huo Yifei and Du Yiyi were actually a good match. Mainly, it would be a pity for Du Yiyi to marry Gong Xu.
Hearing this, Huo Yifei was silent for a while, and then he sighed.
"Forget it, some people are destined to be passers-by in your life. Those who should leave cannot be kept."
Lu Qingqing heard that Huo Yifei already knew he regretted it, but it was already too late.
Lu Qingqing put down the phone and suddenly felt very heavy. If she hadn't taken Huo Yifei to find Sheng Mingxi that night, she wouldn't have bumped into Gong Xu and Du Yiyi by mistake.
If Gong Xu and Du Yiyi had not been seen together with their own eyes, her third brother and Du Yiyi might still have room for change.
Thinking of this, Lu Qingqing suddenly remembered the video of Sheng Mingxi and Song Hairu that Gong Xu sent her.
It was obvious that Sheng Mingxi was not with Song Hairu that night, and she also forgot to ask Gong Xu where he got the video.
She didn't know if she should tell Sheng Mingxi about this? She felt that she shouldn't doubt him, but that video was like a thorn in her heart.
When Mrs. Huo came in, Lu Qingqing was still in a daze.
"Qingqing, someone is looking for you downstairs." Mrs. Huo said.
"Who is it?"
"Du Yiyi."
Upon hearing that Du Yiyi was looking for her, Lu Qingqing hurriedly went downstairs.
In the pavilion in the backyard, Lu Qingqing and Du Yiyi sat opposite each other.
Only a few days apart, Lu Qingqing felt that Du Yiyi was completely different from the Wang family's cocktail party that night.
As if overnight, she changed from a charming goddess with light in her eyes and love in her heart to a cold queen with no warmth in her body.
"Gong Xu and I are engaged." Du Yiyi's eyes turned red as soon as she opened her mouth.
"I heard, why is it so sudden?" Lu Qingqing asked.
"It's not sudden at all. In fact, my family has had this intention for a long time." Du Yiyi held back her tears, "Let's not talk about this for now. I am here to ask for your help with something."
"What's the matter? Just tell me."
"I'm getting engaged on the 3rd of next month. This is the invitation. I want you to help me give it to Huo Yifei." After Du Yiyi finished speaking, she handed over a big red invitation.
Lu Qingqing accepted the invitation and felt very uncomfortable. The person who could have been her third sister-in-law immediately became someone else's wife.
"Don't worry, I will definitely deliver the invitation."
Seeing that Lu Qingqing agreed, Du Yiyi stood up and left.
Lu Qingqing sent her to the door, and before getting into the car, Lu Qingqing asked with some reluctance: "Sister Du, my third brother actually has you in his heart, but he may not have known it before. Your sudden engagement, what's wrong with you?"
He was hit hard, I was wondering if you could give him another chance?"
Du Yiyi smiled lightly, "People always regret when they lose something, but it's too late."
The overall situation has been decided, it's too late to regret.
