Chapter 53 Hongmen Banquet
Xu Wei stayed in Lanzhou for two days. She slept until noon every day, had lunch at the hotel or at some highly-rated restaurants, and went shopping in the afternoon.
In the evening, if Cheng Xianzhi was not busy, she would go to have dinner with Cheng Xianzhi. If Cheng Xianzhi had a meeting, Xu Wei would take care of it by herself.
Cheng Xianzhi only took half a day to visit the surrounding attractions with her, but was soon called back by the people from the branch office, for which he felt deeply sorry.
It was already the third day after the program recording when I returned to Beijing.
Cheng Xianzhi asked Zhou Jing to send Xu Wei home first, and he rushed to the company himself.
Xu Wei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you have to work overtime tonight?"
"There's a lot of stuff going on at the company these past two days, so I might have to come back late."
It was a cloudy day in Beijing today, and the wind blew Xu Wei's hair into a mess. "Then I'll go back to the Lu family by myself."
Her mother sent a message a few days ago, asking her to bring Cheng Xianzhi home for dinner, but Xu Wei had not confirmed a time for her.
We can't delay it any longer now.
It doesn’t matter if Cheng Xianzhi is not free. Anyway, her mother is so anxious for her to take Cheng Xianzhi back, so it must be nothing good.
She finally had an excuse.
Just as Xu Wei was about to close the car door, a pair of hands grabbed the handle. Cheng Xianzhi bent down and looked at Xu Wei straight in the eye. "What time are you going back to the Lu family?"
Xu Wei was stunned.
After a long while, he said in panic: "It's probably dinner time."
"You go back to the Lu family first. I'll probably be there later." Cheng Xianzhi said and closed the car door.
The car drove smoothly for a while before Xu Wei slowly realized that Cheng Xianzhi had agreed to accompany her back to the Lu family.
.......
evening.
Xu Wei returned to the Lu family first.
Just as she reached the door, someone hurried into the house. After a while, Xu Wei met Yu Rong face to face at the entrance.
Yu Rong glanced at her and looked behind her out of the corner of his eye, "Are you the only one back?"
She almost reported Cheng Xianzhi's ID number and asked him why he didn't come.
Xu Wei had a blank expression on her face. "Cheng Xianzhi is busy at the company and will be here later."
Yu Rong breathed a sigh of relief visibly, and as he walked in, he murmured, "You've been married for so long and you still don't know how to bring Cheng Xianzhi home for dinner. You still need me to urge you on the phone. If outsiders know about it, you will be scolded for being ignorant."
"You've grown up like this, but you haven't learned anything from me."
Xu Wei stared at her back in a trance.
My thoughts were suddenly brought back to more than ten years ago.
The young little girl was covered in mud, her pigtails drooping on both sides, and she lowered her head to listen to the lecture.
The woman held a bamboo stick, her back straight, and sat upright on the sofa, her face stern: "Xu Wei, I warned you several times that you are not allowed to play with those bad kids after school. Look at the clothes I bought for you, they are so dirty."
There was no hiding the disdain in her tone, and she felt better only after glancing at her older daughter who was doing her homework obediently on the other side.
The little girl raised her head stubbornly, "They are not bad kids."
Hearing this, the woman angrily scolded: "You are so young and you don't know how to study all day. You just know how to run around. If you are not a bad kid, what are you? Look at your sister. She ranked first in the class in the midterm exam. Look at you. We were both born from my belly, but you ranked last. It's really shameful."
The woman stretched out her hand and pointed at the little girl's forehead rudely.
"If you don't study hard, you will be like your father, a useless person in the future."
After cursing, I still don’t feel relieved.
"Today I will punish you by making you wash your clothes clean. If you don't wash them clean, you won't be allowed to have dinner!"
The little girl's eyes were filled with tears at some point, and she pouted her lips, trying hard not to let the tears fall.
The woman had turned to gently instruct her eldest daughter on her homework. She didn't notice the change in the little girl's expression at all, nor did she know when she ran out again.
......
The Lu family’s living room.
Lu Jiguo was sitting with his legs crossed, reading today's financial newspaper. When he saw Xu Wei coming, he took off his reading glasses and said with a warm smile, "Xiaoyue is back. Where's Xianzhi? Didn't he come back with you?"
Xu Wei sat on the sofa and curled her lips, "He was on a business trip some time ago and is still dealing with the backlog of work at the company."
Lu Jiguo said "oh" several times.
A pair of shrewd eyes stared at Xu Wei for a long time, "Although Xiaoyue is married, you still have to come back more often to accompany your mother in the future. She misses you all day long at home."
Yu Rong had just taken out some iced lychees from the refrigerator. Upon hearing this, he said with disdain, "Who is talking about her? I wish she wouldn't come back so I wouldn't be upset seeing her."
The lychees look very fresh, they must have been bought today.
"Since you're already married, you should calm down. Look at what happened online a while ago, and you even wanted to jump off a building." After a pause, Yu Rong said, "You'd better quit as soon as possible, otherwise your mother-in-law, who doesn't deserve the name, will come to me and complain."
Xu Wei raised her eyebrows and asked with interest: "Mom, how did you respond to her?"
Her mother's fighting ability is no weaker than that of Lai Shuqing.
Yu Rong snorted coldly: "How dare she come to me and complain? She really thinks I am a soft persimmon that she can manipulate at will."
Based on her mother's words alone, Xu Wei could basically conclude that Lai Shuk-hing was completely defeated.
At most, Li Shuqing had some scheming intentions and used some tricks to seduce men. In her eyes, Yu Rong was a competitive strong woman. After marrying into the Lu family, she still held the shares firmly in her hands and had a certain status in the company. Li Shuqing had a short vision and was definitely not her mother's opponent.
They sat in the living room for a long time, waiting for the meal to start, but there was no sign of Cheng Xianzhi arriving.
Lu Jiguo's face was visibly unhappy.
Did he think Xu Wei was fooling him?
Cheng Xianzhi had no intention of coming at all, or Xu Wei had never told Cheng Xianzhi about this matter.
He looked at Xu Wei with scrutiny.
"Xiao Yue, are you sure Xianzhi will come? Did you and your wife have a fight recently?"
Xu Wei frowned slightly.
Lu Jiguo attached too much importance to Cheng Xianzhi, forcing her to rethink what kind of Hongmen Banquet tonight was.
Before he could answer, Cheng Xianzhi's clear voice came from the entrance, "What are you talking about, Uncle Lu? Ah Yue and I are doing fine."
Xu Wei stood up in surprise.
Cheng Xianzhi, dressed in a neat suit, walked into the living room with steady steps and went straight to Xu Wei's side. "Sorry, Uncle Lu, sorry, Mom, I was a little busy at the company and came late."
Yu Rong is like a mother-in-law who likes her son-in-law more and more. She said hurriedly, "It's not too late. Xiaoyue has told us that business is more important."
Lu Jiguo immediately put on a smiling face, lamenting that young people should focus on their careers, and praised Cheng Xianzhi.
On the table.
Cheng Xianzhi rarely drank two glasses of wine with Lu Jiguo.
After three rounds of drinks, Lu Jiguo finally brought out the purpose of tonight.
"Xianzhi, I heard that Cheng is in contact with a government project recently. That's a good project. If we can get it..."
