The daughter-in-law of a wealthy family does not lie flat

Zhang Xueren has a very special temperament. His scholarly air is unmatched by others. He is also good-looking. No matter where he appears, he will be the focus of women's attention.

Lu Qing thought to herself, although I am not good-looking, the people I date are all more handsome than each other, which is quite good.

The female guests who were chattering and staring at Weisker's dancing just now now began to study Zhang Xueren's identity.

Teacher Zhang Dai had just arrived at Haicheng University, and Zhang Xueren had been overseas for a long time, so everyone couldn't come to a conclusion. They only saw that Weisker was extremely enthusiastic about him.

Lu Qing thought, this is bad, with so many people attending the meeting today, there will definitely be a few who will post short videos on social platforms, and I won't be able to explain myself if Fu Yanheng sees them. Fortunately, Ding Yingzhen and Zhang Hengyuan are with me throughout today. I have invited Zhang Hengyuan to do a good deed, and now I will get the reward in this life. It's great to have two witnesses.

Looking at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, and as expected, the host announced that it was the last dance song.

"Let us end this wonderful gathering with a beautiful waltz. Happy times are always wonderful..."

Lu Qing could no longer hear what the host was saying because Zhang Xueren took her hand and walked into the dance floor.

Ding Yingzhen originally wanted to dance the last song with Zhang Hengyuan, but seeing Huaisike standing there alone, she took the initiative to go over and ask him to dance. Zhang Hengyuan understood what she meant and quietly stepped back to watch.

The song is called "Yellow Rose". The lyrics tell about the reluctance of a man and a woman in love facing separation. After being adapted into a waltz, the sad and entangled feelings are still there.

Lu Qing and Zhang Xueren used to dance frequently. They danced everything, the cha-cha, the rumba, and even the foxtrot. No matter which college in the school held a dance, they would go.

The cheongsam that Lu Qing wore today could not spread out like a big skirt, but it was a perfect match for the sad music like Yellow Roses.

The two have worked together too many times, and every step is in perfect harmony. An expert nearby can tell at a glance that the two are definitely old partners.

Lu Qing put her hand on Zhang Xueren's shoulder and held her right hand. Although they didn't need to be too close to each other during Waltz, Lu Qing could still smell his scent.

Back then, Zhang Xueren's body was covered with a light northern cedar scent, but now it's covered with leather mixed with tobacco.

Lu Qing frowned, "Is this the smell of your perfume or do you really smoke?"

"you guess."

Lu Qing glanced at Zhang Xueren's left hand fingers and said, "No color, perfume, maybe."

"Although I am left-handed, I don't necessarily smoke with my left hand. You are too arbitrary. Besides, I only see you a few times a year. Do you still want to care about my bad habits?"

"It's just a friendly reminder. You told your students back then that addiction to anything is a sign of a lack of self-control."

"I have long discovered that I have no self-control. My previous views on marriage and love now seem ridiculous. My worldview has collapsed. How can I still have self-control?"

The two slid to the right side of the dance floor.

Lu Qing held his shoulders with a little force, only to find that he was skinny. "Publish a book on how to maintain a skinny figure. I'll be the first to buy it."

Zhang Xueren couldn't help laughing, "You? It's useless to buy it. You love to eat so much, just like Cindy. And my future brother-in-law, I heard he's also a gourmet. Speaking of books, someone in Hong Kong has ordered 3,000 copies of my new book. Is it you?"

"Yes, this is not enough. You should print the second edition as soon as possible."

"You don't have to be like that. The publisher paid me for my book, so it doesn't matter if it doesn't sell well."

"You can tell Weisker about this. He has set more books than me. I estimate that when we review the books at the end of this year, we will not be able to match the professional books on economics except for the Nobel Prize winners. The others will probably not be as good as yours."

"It's not because I write well. I have nothing to be proud of."

Lu Qing chuckled, "This is how the times are. Good wine needs to be known only by its deep alley. What we can do is to promote it more. We all recognize your expertise and writing style, and so do people in the circle. Promoting economics knowledge may help reduce the number of bankruptcies and increase the number of well-off people in this world. This is a great good, so why not do it?"

"You are more eloquent than before."

"Well, you're late. I was just flattering someone. I secretly criticized him for flattering without blushing. I've also long been accustomed to saying polite words. After a long time, even a person as dumb as me can learn a little bit. But," Lu Qing looked into Zhang Xueren's eyes, "I didn't lie to you."

"Really? Didn't you say something unpleasant on purpose to provoke me when you left Silicon Valley? You're even trying to provoke me. Humph!"

Lu Qing denied it, "I was in the third trimester of pregnancy at the time, I don't remember anything!"

Zhang Xueren listened to the song almost ending, "I'm going to meet Zhang Chen and Cindy for dinner tomorrow, would you like to come?"

"I'm going with my husband, are you welcome?"

Zhang Xueren was stunned, "Of course."

The song ended and the dance ended with applause.

Huaisike was watching the two of them dancing just now. Zhang Xueren only had eyes for Lu Qing. Several times when they passed each other, Lu Qing would nod to him, but Xueren never noticed him and Ding Yingzhen once. He knew in his heart that it was hard to change his friend's mind.

Weisker sent a car to take Ding Yingzhen and Zhang Hengyuan back.

Zhang Xueren was driving the car. He originally wanted to send Lu Qing back, but Ding Yingzhen suddenly remembered something and said, "Boss Lin, my luggage is still at your house this afternoon. I have to go home with you."

As he spoke, he pulled Zhang Hengyuan with his hand.

Zhang Hengyuan had already been briefed by his girlfriend tonight on the relationship between these people, and he understood it very well, "Ah, yes, I'll go with you, otherwise Yingzhen will be too tired to carry the luggage."

Weisker smiled, saying everything. "Luqing, that's it for tonight. I'm about to fly back to the United States. There's a charity baseball game there and I need to throw the first pitch. Someone will naturally contact you about things here. No matter what, I'm relieved that your company is here to assist with the project's implementation and export. Let's keep in touch! Don't worry about the American time zone. You can contact me anytime if you have anything."

Lu Qing held out her hand to bid farewell to Weisker, "I am also online 24 hours a day on my phone, I never turn it off, you can always contact me if you have any questions."

Weisker and Lu Qing shook hands vigorously, then looked at Zhang Xueren, "It's such a coincidence that I have to leave as soon as you come. Haha, I was thinking about playing with you in China for a few days, but it seems that we will have to do it next time! Take care!"

The two hugged goodbye, and Lu Qing stood next to them and could hear Weiske's almost inaudible voice saying, "Don't drink, and don't smoke."

After that, they got in the car and headed straight for the airport.

The embassy's car was ready. Lu Qing said to Zhang Xueren, "Let's take this car. It's getting late. You should go back and rest. We can see each other more during our stay in Haicheng. I would also like to invite you to visit my company and give me some suggestions."

Zhang Xueren just smiled and nodded.
