Promise You Lifelong Happiness - C38
After a week of work, in the blink of an eye, it was already the weekend.
It was rare for Lin Qingrou to be able to walk the streets by herself after parting with Ye Qing’s name. She enjoyed watching movies and eating alone. She felt extremely free and relaxed. She was about to go home when she suddenly received a call from Liu Yuxi.
When Liu Yuxi found out that Lin Qingrou was shopping by herself, he immediately called for her. Thus, in this noisy weekend, the two of them were able to get together again.
Lin Manshou often said that the two of them were “unable to cut it off and still confused”, while Liu Yuxi would always change it to “If I had known earlier, I would have been so captivated. How could I have known her like that?”, and then she would say that she was “really sour”.
Today, Liu Yuxi was wearing loose casual attire. Unlike her usual exquisite dress and the high heels that she used to wear, her attire made her appear exceptionally pure and cute.
Upon seeing Lin Qingrou, Liu Yuxi complained, “If it wasn’t for you, my grandfather would have locked me up at home.”
Lin Qingrou was surprised, “What’s wrong?”
Liu Yuxi pouted and said, “My lord, I’ve flipped through the calendar today, and you told me that I’m not allowed to travel today. You’re not spouting nonsense.”
Lin Qingrou snickered, “Enough already, you’re complaining blindly. They’re doing it for your own good. ”
While the two of them were chatting idly, Lin Qingrou’s phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and looked at it. It was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello, may I ask who it is?”
“Sister-in-law, it’s me, Wu Tianming.”
Lin Qingrou was shocked, “Why is he… Did something happen? ”
Wu Tianming explained, “No, no, don’t think too much about it. We saw Ye Qingming coming alone in the morning, and everyone was worried. I just drove to the city center, where is your home? I’ll pick you up. We’re all waiting! ”
Lin Qingrou instantly felt apologetic. Her original intention was for their own good. She was afraid that they would avoid chatting and having fun in front of her. But now that Wu Tianming has already personally come, it would seem pretentious if she still refused, so she could only apologise and say, “I …” I’m in the middle of the city, on the side of Central Street. ”
Who would have thought that Wu Tianming would come right after hanging up the phone? Before Lin Qingrou could even get a clue as to what was going on, the two of them were already invited into the car by Wu Tianming.
Liu Yuxi was momentarily stunned while sitting in the car. She couldn’t help but mutter in her heart: What are these? I was just chatting on the street, how did I get in the car in just two minutes?!
Seeing the awkward expressions on their faces, Wu Tianming couldn’t help explaining, “Sister-in-law, don’t think too much into it. It’s just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks, it’s not troublesome at all. “Having another person is more interesting. I was even worried that I wouldn’t be able to find someone to play with. It’s so lively with so many people.”
Lin Manshui smiled, then looked at Liu Yuxi and joked to Wu Tianming, “Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble you with one more person.”
Wu Tianming was in an exceptionally good mood when he saw the beautiful woman. He said to Liu Yuxi, “You should be about the same age?”
Liu Yuxi nodded.
Wu Tianming smiled and said, “People say that beauties gather together. I didn’t believe it in the past, but now I believe it.”
Liu Yuxi’s lips curved into a smile. She had been listening to these words of flattery ever since she was young, and now that they formed ‘high-level antibodies’, no matter how extravagant their words were, they didn’t change in the slightest.
Lin Qingrou asked, “They’re already here?”
Wu Tianming nodded and added, “Everyone’s here. There are still a few family members who want to let their families get to know each other. It would be interesting to have more people.”
Lin Qingrou felt even more guilty. If she had known this would happen, she would have gone with Ye Qingming.
The three chatted along the way and soon arrived at their destination.
The ancient city water town was built in the Ming Dynasty, and lived next to the water. The family had flowers and families to make boats, so it was named “ancient city water town”.
As for the hotel Wu Tianming mentioned, it was decorated with a low profile and elegance. Because the outskirts of the town was also the ancient city’s Water Town, the small alleys in the town snaked up and circled around the hotel. It was intoxicating, as if he was in ancient times.
Lin Qingrou got off the car and saw Ye Qingming waiting at the hotel entrance. She looked at him embarrassedly and didn’t know what to say.
When Ye Qingming saw her awkward expression, he knew that she was feeling guilty. He comforted her, “You still want to talk about this?”
Lin Qingrou nodded.
Ye Qingming shook her hand, hinting that she didn’t need to care too much about it.
“Fatty is always warm and hospitable. If you don’t come, you won’t give him face.” Now that you’re here, he doesn’t know how happy he is. And you brought another. ” As Ye Qingming spoke, he looked towards Liu Yuxi, who was chatting with Wu Tianming.
Lin Manshou smiled sweetly, “She said it’s not appropriate to travel today, I don’t know if she will feel that way anymore.”
Ye Qingming was shocked, “She still believes this?”
“Her grandfather said so.” Lin Qingrou laughed.
Lin Qingrou took the time to look around before sighing, “This place is truly beautiful.”
She looked at it and suddenly remembered that she had read about this hotel in the magazine. She knew that all the people who could come here were either rich or noble, and they were not allowed to be members. Ye Qingming also felt the same way. He asked, “You like the Chinese style of decoration?”
Lin Qingrou thought for a while, then said, “It doesn’t matter, as long as it’s harmonious.”
Ye Qingming regretfully said, “Then you definitely don’t like my family’s style.”
As the two of them were talking, Du Yi Yi shouted from behind them, “Come here! There’s a golden carp over here! ”
When the few of them heard this, they saw Du Yi Yi take a piece of bread and stand on the trestle to feed the fish.
Liu Yuxi quietly asked, “Do you want to feed the fish? Why don’t we take a look around the ancient town? ”
After seeing Ye Qingming say a few words to him, Lin Qingrou agreed to Liu Yuxi’s suggestion.
In the ancient city at this time, deep in the rain, there was a light song and a song. As they walked, they enjoyed the quiet of the paradise.
Lin Ran and Liu Yuxi were both people with a lot of curiosity, so even though the alley was very short, they still discovered many interesting things that were similar to the past. For example, they discovered all kinds of totem masks, clay figures, and various types of candy …
At this time, Liu Yuxi suddenly said to Lin Manshou, “Look, there’s a fortune-teller up ahead! Shall we go and take a look? ”
Before she could even react, Liu Yuxi had already pulled her far away. No matter how much she racked her brains, she couldn’t understand why Liu Yuxi was so engrossed in fortune telling.
The old fortune-teller, with his wrinkled face and goatee, was sitting on a stool in the sun with his eyes half closed.
Liu Yuxi stepped forward, and after asking the old man, he opened his palm.
“Little girl, this is a sign of wealth and nobility! Of all the people I have seen this year, your fate is the best! ” The old man sounded serious, but it didn’t make much difference.
Liu Yuxi laughed and asked, “What about love? What about marriage? ”
The old man put on the reading glasses and carefully looked at them, then said, “The road of love is bumpy. Although it has been tough, in the end, you will still be with your beloved. As for marriage … Tsk tsk, I can’t tell, but it’s vague and indistinct. ”
Liu Yuxi was now unwilling to accept this. She retracted her hand and muttered, “Fine, let’s just watch and forget about it.” She took ten dollars and put it in the bag in front of the old man.
Lin Qingrou, who was behind her, laughed. “What’s the meaning of marriage lines being vague? Hahaha.”
Liu Yuxi’s eyeballs moved as he pulled Lin Kuangrou to sit down unwillingly, before turning his hand over for the old man to see.
“Sigh …” Little girl, this grandpa advises you: Sometimes life must always be in the end, life must never be forced. Everyone has their own destiny. Good or bad is the result of a lifetime. It’s not that we don’t want to report, it’s not time yet. ” As the old man spoke, he stroked his beard and gave them a mysterious smile.
Liu Yuxi asked again, “What about marriage? What about love? ”
The old man didn’t even look at it this time and said carelessly, “If you only get stuck in the same situation as before, you will be miserable in the future. The young lady can decide for herself. ”
Lin Qingrou retracted her hand, causing Liu Yuxi to stumble.
At this time, the old man saw the two of them were both shocked and worried. He took the opportunity to say: “The two of you, if you want to solve the bad luck, there is a way. I will write a charm for you.”
Liu Yuxi said anxiously, “How do I write this? “How much is it?”
The old man held up a finger.
Liu Yuxi said, “A hundred?”
The old man shook his head. “A thousand.”
Only then did Liu Yuxi react. She pulled Lin Manshui by the wrist and angrily walked back to the hotel. As he walked, he said, “I said he is a swindler, what broken talisman costs one thousand yuan?! “This is so infuriating.”
Lin Manrou joked, “I saw that you believed so much, you almost paid me.”
Liu Yuxi rolled his eyes at her and left.
Lin Qingrou followed behind her. She couldn’t help but look at her own palm as she thought back to the words of the old man, “Life comes sometimes, life comes when there’s no need to force it. Everyone has their own destiny. Good or bad is the result of a lifetime. It’s not that we don’t want to report, it’s not time yet. ”
“If I am only stuck with the matters of the past, I will be grieving ten thousand times over in the future.”
She couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart. When she turned around to look at the fortune-telling old man, he had already disappeared.
Lin Qingrou laughed at herself. In the past, she had seen too many liars who spoke first before asking for money. It seemed like he was really bored today, which was why he chose to listen in with Liu Yuxi. How could he take it as the truth?!
While she was thinking, she walked along the stone alley and looked at the greyish tiles with their white walls, the blue grass, and the blue sky. As she enjoyed this rare time, her mood gradually became better. Not long later, she had completely forgotten about her earlier unhappiness.
