Promise You Lifelong Happiness - C42

When Lin Man and Ye Qingming arrived at Ye Qingcheng’s house, they were immediately shocked by his appearance.

Before coming to Ye Qingcheng’s house, she had imagined that it might be a luxurious European style, or it might be a refined Chinese style. However, no matter how she thought about it, she could not have imagined that Ye Qingcheng’s house was so simple and unadorned.

Every house had been decorated in a similar way many years ago, so when Lin Qingrou sat here, she couldn’t help but think of the little house that she and her father had lived in when she was young. She couldn’t help but look at her hand. The corners of the wooden sofa had been worn smooth and shiny. The furniture seemed to be a bit old. The whole house had no excessive and meticulous decorations or complicated decorations, so everything was filled with an orderly way to use. With just a glance, he could see all the furnishings in the house.

This made Lin Manchu curious. What kind of person was Ye Qingcheng? Where would he put the evidence?

Shen Ruzhen brought out a lot of fruits and snacks and placed them on the tea table. She passionately pulled on Lin Qingrou’s hand and smiled at her, “Your brother will be back shortly after he goes downstairs.” It’s rare for Manchu to come to my house today, and I knew you were coming just now, and I was extremely happy. ”

Ye Qingming took the opportunity to say, “It was Manchu who asked to thank you, so I followed her.”

Shen Ruzhen pretended to be angry and scolded him, “If it weren’t for Mai Rou, you wouldn’t have thought to come here even if it was half a month. So, you still need a good girl to look after you. ”

Lin Qingrou smiled embarrassedly as she looked around the living room, her gaze drawn to a distant wall.

It was a very abrupt wall, as if it should not have been there, but had been specially built for decoration purposes. However, because the location was extremely well hidden, if one were to look from the entrance, one would not be able to find anything if one did not look carefully.

Shen Ruzhen saw the situation and explained, “That is our family’s bookcase, the original books were kept in the study, who knew that more and more of the final books were gone, so we could only find a special bookcase in the living room. I’m sorry. ”

Lin Qingrou put down her glass and asked, “Can I take a look?”

Shen Ruzhen nodded her head, “Of course.”

As she spoke, Lin Qingrou stepped forward. She circled around to the side, and when she reached the front, a large wall of books gradually appeared before her.

It looked like the entire wall had been cut into mid-air and separated into different sizes. It was used to display all kinds of books of different sizes. However, after seeing more than half of them, Lin Qingrou knew that most of them were in the medical field. The tip of her nose began to emit the distinctive smell of printed paper and old paper, the smell of corrupting Viv. If the decorations in Ye Qingcheng’s house were simple and not worth much money, then in terms of books that covered almost all aspects of history, it was definitely several times more expensive than expensive furniture or luxurious sculptures. Lin Qingrou looked at it roughly, and she saw a few old books that even a famous writer whom she had interviewed before found hard to find.

She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, “While many tycoons were still playing the superficial game of burning money to sail the yacht, people like Ye Qingcheng had already upgraded from buying antiques to collecting ancient books.”

But why would she give him such an evaluation? In her opinion, if someone described someone else, that evaluation would be a compliment, but if it was used on Ye Qingcheng, it would be a bit ironic.

Lin Qingrou took a few more steps forward. Suddenly, she saw a square model on the bottom right side of the bookcase. It was a wooden model of a classical garden villa. The color was elegant and clean, the craftsmanship exquisite and lifelike. Even the lines on the window and the rocks on the rock garden were handled very meticulously. She took the opportunity to secretly take two photos and put them into her phone.

Lin Qingrou turned to look at the hundreds of books, lost in thought. Her mind was filled with thoughts about where in the world Ye Qingcheng would place such an important piece of evidence. Would he be stuck in his favorite book, or buried in a bookcase?

Lin Qingrou touched the smooth walls. If that was really the case, wouldn’t it be too easy for people to guess? However, no one knew what Ye Qingcheng was thinking, neither did Lin Qingrou and perhaps Shen Ruzhen and Ye Qingming.

Lin Qingrou was so engrossed in watching that she did not know that Ye Qingcheng had already returned.

“Brother.” Ye Qingming stood up and said.

Only then did she come back to her senses. She looked at Ye Qingcheng and both of them suddenly had an awkward expression. When Ye Qingming saw this, he pulled Lin Qingrou back to sit beside him.

“How are you preparing for the wedding?” Ye Qingcheng looked at Lin Qingrou and asked.

Ye Qingming smiled at Lin Manshui, then said to Ye Qingcheng, “There doesn’t seem to be anything to prepare, as long as elder sister gives in.”

Ye Qingcheng looked at Lin Qingrou and said in a subtle tone, “If it’s Miss Lin’s words, she might not object.”

Ye Qingming immediately said, “That’s not necessarily true. Our big sister will listen to you. I’m afraid you will have to tell her. Otherwise, she will still do something unexpected.”

“Oh? What did she do? ” Ye Qingcheng was suddenly interested and looked towards Ye Qingming.

Lin Qingrou hastened to say, “No, elder sister didn’t do anything, maybe I wasn’t good enough.”

She didn’t know if Ye Qingcheng knew about Xing Ruonan, but she subconsciously didn’t want Ye Qingcheng to get involved with the matters of Xing Ruonan and her father, Xing Dapeng.

Shen Ruzhen had already prepared a cup of tea and passed it over to Ye Qingcheng. She then asked Lin Qingrou, “Are the wedding gowns ready?”

Lin Qingrou shook her head in embarrassment.

Shen Ruzhen saw and asked, “Why are you not ready yet? If it is any later, it is likely that it will be too late. ”

She looked at Lin Qingrou and said, “I just happen to have a friend that works in this area. If you’re free tomorrow, why don’t you go take a look?”

Lin Qingrou held the glass of water tightly, feeling a little awkward. She didn’t want to try out the wedding dress, feeling that it was a private matter. However, in the face of Shen Ruzhen’s kind invitation, she found it very difficult to refuse. Fortunately, Ye Qingming quickly said, “We’ve already agreed to go tomorrow, so there’s no need to trouble sister-in-law.”

Only then did Shen Ruzhen relax as she looked at the two of them in satisfaction.

After lunch, Ye Qingcheng and Ye Qingming went outside to sit in the yard, while Shen Ru Zhen pulled Lin Qingrou to the study room.

Lin Qingrou watched curiously as Shen Ruizhen took out a red velvet box from the small bookcase in the study.

“Come, look at this.” Shen Ruzhen said as she opened the box.

Lin Qingrou looked at her in surprise. “This …”

He saw a green jade ring with a transparent golden edge. The ring was quietly standing in the middle of the box. Under the sunlight, it would occasionally sparkle.

Shen Ruzhen explained, “This is something left behind by the previous generation. Back then, my parents left in a hurry, so they left all their belongings with me temporarily. Logically speaking, I should have given my siblings a share of the profits all these years, but … Forget it. Anyway, this ring is yours now. Even if it’s a gift from your parents. I think if they were alive, they would like you and give you this ring. ”

From start to finish, she had never wanted to get anything from Ye Qingming. From her point of view, marrying Ye Qingming wasn’t just a humiliation to her, it was also a lie to Ye Qingming. Thus, she never expected anything from Ye Qingming, not to mention something so precious.

Lin Manshou bluntly said, “I can’t take it, it’s too valuable, and we also… I know what you’re thinking, but such a precious ring … Even if I take it, I’ll be burdened. ”

Shen Ru Zhen laughed: “Don’t think too much about it, this is something that I have to give you. Furthermore, if you do not want it anymore, are you not afraid that the two old men will be angry at you?! ”

Shen Ruzhen’s words were true, she even brought out Ye Qingming’s parents. Lin Qingrou did not know what else to say. She could not just reveal her true purpose in rejecting this ring. After thinking about it for a while, she could only nervously put the ring into her bag.

In the evening, when Ye Qingming sent Lin Qingrou home, Lin Qingrou took out the ring solemnly and gave it to Ye Qingming, “I really can’t take it, but I don’t know how to say it to my wife, so I’ll leave it with you. You should give it to her in private when you have the chance.”

Ye Qingming did not know what Shen Ruzhen gave Ye Qingming. He held it in his hand, looked at it and exclaimed, “This was given to him by my grandmother when my mother got married. I didn’t think that sister-in-law would give you this. ”

Lin Qingrou became even more depressed, she felt like this ring was a hot potato, the more precious it was, the more uneasy she felt.

“That’s why I can’t take it. I beg you, take it back.” Lin Qingrou explained.

Ye Qingming was helpless. He had always known that no matter who was in power, whatever Lin Qingrou decided on himself would be useless. Thus, he followed her wishes and put the ring back into his bag.

He said, “I’ll take the ring back first. When we get married, it’ll be yours sooner or later.”

At this moment, the taut strings in Lin Qingrou’s mind could finally relax for a moment. She did not care, as long as he did not stay by her side now. As for the future, that could wait until later.

As the two parted ways, Lin Qingrou said to Ye Qingming, “Thank you for what happened just now.”

“What’s wrong?” Ye Qingming was curious.

Lin Manshou unnaturally said, “I’ll just test out the wedding dress. Thank you for helping me out.” Actually, I … It’s not that I don’t want to go, but I … “He’s probably not ready yet.”

She lowered her head, unhappily buttoning her nails.

Ye Qingming thought it was a serious matter. He smiled but didn’t say anything. He only gently touched her head.

Lin Qingrou raised her head and asked, “Is Ye Sisi the daughter of our eldest sister-in-law?”

Ye Qingming nodded, “What’s wrong?” Did sister-in-law tell you about her? ”

Lin Qingrou smiled, “Yes, I just saw their family’s fortune in the living room. She’s very beautiful and she looks very smart and obedient. ”

Ye Qingming said in disappointment, “But she has worried them recently.”

“What’s wrong?” Lin Qingrou asked.

Ye Qingming said helplessly, “Isn’t it the matter of her and her classmates being in love? But I don’t think there is anything to be afraid of. After all, she has already grown up. However, if big brother and big sister have their own plans, then no one would know. ”

Lin Qingrou nodded, taking note of Ye Qingming’s words. After she sent him off, she returned to the study room and quietly watched Ye Sisi’s update on MSN. “I’m in a really bad mood. Is the third eye really that important? ” She hesitated between her fingers, unsure if she should take the initiative to ask Ye Sisi about her relationship with Li Fang.

It seemed like Ye Qingcheng was really looking forward to Ye Sisi’s marriage and had put a lot of effort into it. However, it had to be said that only he knew whether Ye Qingcheng was actually concerned about his daughter or whether he was just wrapping up an exquisite object for a “good price”.

Lin Manrou thought for a while and still hesitated. Amongst all the people in the Ye Family, the only person she could not help but feel guilty when facing Ye Sisi. So this time, she did not disturb her, and instead chose to quietly observe.

Ye Qingming had been out on a business trip for several days. Lin Qingrou was alone at home. While she was cleaning the house, Liu Yuxi suddenly called.

“Are you home?” Liu Yuxi asked.

Lin Qingrou grunted.

Liu Yuxi continued, “Last time you told me about the wedding dress test, how was it today?”

Lin Qingrou asked, “What’s wrong? Didn’t you already set a date for tomorrow? ”

Liu Yuxi said embarrassedly, “Then do you have time today?”

“Of course there is. It’s just that why did you bring the time forward?”

“It’s because I have something to do tomorrow. I have to go to the amusement park with my friends.”

As she spoke, she put down the mop in her hand and could not help but ask, “Is it Zhou Yuan?”

Liu Yuxi was shocked, and protested, “You can’t pretend that you don’t know? Every time you expose me. ”

Lin Qingrou hugged her stomach. “It’s my pleasure to expose you, but then again, how is Zhou Yuan?” Is it good for you? ”

Liu Yuxi thought about it for a while, then said with certainty, “Of course, he’s not very talkative, but he cares a lot about people. Last time I had a cold, although he didn’t make much of a phone call, but when he came to see me at night he gave me a lot of medicine.

Lin Qingrou nodded her head in agreement.

Liu Yuxi seemed to be very satisfied with Zhou Yuan’s character this time around. It was unknown if he was more satisfied with the contrast of having learned from the mistakes of the past, or if Zhou Yuan was indeed her chosen one. In short, Liu Yuxi never left Zhou Yuan in just three sentences when he was with Lin Manshou.

So in the end, Lin Qingrou said impatiently: “Can you stop talking? I’m going to try out my wedding dress. You have to help me choose one. ”

Liu Yuxi then broke free from his inner thoughts, looking apologetically at Lin Qingrou as he swore, “I was wrong. I’ll pick out the wedding dress for you. I promise I won’t say anything else! ”

As they spoke, they walked into the wedding shop.

Honestly speaking, of all the things a girl likes, wedding gowns are always the most attractive for a girl’s fancy fantasies about the best world. Therefore, once they were immersed in this world, no one was willing to come out. They were willing to be trapped here forever.

The wife of the wedding shop was a high school classmate of Liu Yuxi, and after graduating from college, she went to France to study clothing design. After returning home, he opened this wedding shop. Although it was not as crowded as other wedding shops, every girl who came before could not stop praising it.

Of course, Liu Yuxi and Lin Qingrou were no exception. They looked at the rows of finely patterned gowns, not even wanting to blink.

Lin Qingrou had always thought that the wedding dress was just a slightly more complicated and gorgeous evening dress, but she never thought that one day, she would actually wear a wedding dress. She never would have thought that she would be so excited and anticipating it so much.

Liu Yuxi pulled her along and chose a milky white wedding dress with a slanted shoulder design. He pointed at it and asked, “How about this one?”

Lin Qingrou placed them on her body, indicating that they looked pretty good.

In the changing room, Liu Yuxi couldn’t help but sigh emotionally, “Manchu, I feel like I went to school with you yesterday. Why are you suddenly getting married. ”

If it wasn’t for that, I would probably have married even earlier,” Lin said sadly as she changed her wedding dress with Liu Yuxi’s help. Maybe in my bones I’m still a lazy person, more or less a bit of a reclusive mentality. I’ve waited ten years for this day, prepared ten years …

Liu Yuxi looked at the scar on Lin Mang Rou’s chest and said worriedly, “Is everything alright here? Does it still hurt?”

Lin Qingrou used her hand to stroke the protruding part of the scar, which was gradually forming scars on her skin. It did not seem to be as smooth and soft as the other parts of her skin that did not have any scars. However, that was the only mark that Lin Qingrou’s mother could leave behind, as if it was her own unique memory.

She smiled and said to Liu Yuxi, “It doesn’t matter, it’s already much better. If I hadn’t come to test my wedding dress, I would have forgotten. ”

Liu Yuxi asked her while he helped her put on the wedding dress, “This wedding dress is probably a bit complicated, I keep having the feeling that the design doesn’t really fit your appearance. Do you want to change it? ”

Lin Qingrou looked at herself in the mirror and felt that it was all right. She didn’t know why, but when she looked in the mirror at her gorgeous wedding dress, it didn’t seem like she was looking forward to it. She just stood there in a daze, her mind still unconsciously thinking about Ye Qingming.

However, when she realized what she was thinking, she was suddenly taken aback.

Lin Qingrou asked blankly, “Yuxi, do you really love Zhou Yuan?”

Liu Yuxi was stunned by her sudden question. She said blankly, “Maybe. I just feel very comfortable being with him.”

“Comfortable … very steady … is she falling in love?”

Liu Yuxi said seriously, “That might not be the case. If he fell in love, could it be that his heart was beating faster? Maybe it was something else, but seriously, I probably loved myself more than anyone else. Of course, I love you more than anyone else. ”

Lin Qingrou smiled. She understood. However, did she understand how she felt about Ye Qingming?

Liu Yuxi regained her senses and asked, “You want to ask about Ye Qingming, right? “Are you in love with him?”

Lin Qingrou looked at Liu Yuxi, then back at herself in the mirror. Her long brown hair was draped behind her back, and the scar on her shoulder was perfectly covered by a soft, dreamy white gauze.

She blankly said, “Maybe. If I really fell in love with him, what would happen?”

Liu Yuxi pondered for a moment and said worriedly, “Do you remember what you said before? You once said: ‘To fall in love with Ye Qingming is to fall in love with hatred’. If you really fall in love with him, or choose to face him, you will be in a dilemma. Either choose to ignore him, or you’ll have to resist all the feelings you have for him. No matter what you do, both are very painful. What do you think he feels for you? Is he in love with you too? ”

Lin Qingrou shook her head with a bitter smile. She did not know, but it was possible that she was useless to Ye Qingming.

Liu Yuxi was immediately disappointed as he did not expect his first joke to actually come true.

She took off her wedding dress and changed into her own clothes, then said to Liu Yuxi, “Let’s use this set for now. Does your friend agree to borrow it? ” She didn’t want to spend so much money on the wedding dress because of this meaningless marriage, so she just needed to borrow one.

Liu Yuxi reprimanded her, saying, “When we were in university, I said that I would give you your wedding dress when you got married. If you really decide, I’ll have the shop assistant wrap it up for us. ”

Lin Manshou rejected it, “This wedding dress is very expensive, no matter how much money you have, you don’t need to spend it this way.”

Liu Yuxi shrugged, holding the wedding dress and said, “I’m so poor now, I only have money left. Why don’t you give me a chance to spend it? You want to suffocate me? “What’s more, the Lady Boss was my best friend in high school. Forget about buying her, even if I gave her the money, she wouldn’t be unwilling. You don’t have to worry about that.”

Lin Qingrou hadn’t changed into her own clothes yet, so she could only watch as Liu Yuxi took the wedding dress out to settle the bill. She unconsciously looked at her back and felt a sliver of relief in her heart. Fortunately, they still had each other. Even if the world were to collapse one day, there would always be others who would be by his side to face all kinds of hardships and hardships together. This seemed to be the greatest comfort of their respective lives.
