Chapter 254 Long Lin'er is angry
"The wedding banquets aren't even in the same league?" Long Lin'er couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "Zhang Liangzhi, are you mocking me or yourself?"
"Whether it's sarcasm or not, everyone knows perfectly well. There's no need to play word games here. The weddings of the four great families are no ordinary events; they're far beyond what commoners can afford. You'd better stop mocking us," Zhang Liangzhi said.
Long Lin'er's hands, hidden under the table, were clenched into fists, her eyes were red and brimming with tears.
She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the tears that were about to fall, and said with a forced smile, "It seems I won't be able to attend Attorney Zhang's wedding."
“The wedding is just a formality. Since we are friends, we can get together whenever we have time. There’s no need to make a big deal out of a wedding,” Zhang Liangzhi said calmly.
Long Lin'er's eyes were already brimming with tears, but she refused to lower her head and pretended not to care, saying, "The marriage hall is sacred, and I will not allow you to say such things."
“People often say that romance belongs only to the rich, while ordinary people can only live a mundane life together.” Ran Wenqi, who had not spoken until now, suddenly spoke up, looking at Zhang Liangzhi with loving eyes, “Brother Liangzhi said it’s just a formality, so it’s just a formality. Therefore, our wedding is different from Miss Long’s, and naturally we don’t need to hold it together. I hope Miss Long can understand.”
Upon hearing this, Long Lin'er scoffed and said, "Heh, what are you pretending for at a time like this?"
Ran Wenqi's smile vanished instantly, and she looked at Zhang Liangzhi with unease, showing a look of fear. She cautiously asked Zhang Liangzhi, "Did I say something wrong?"
Zhang Liangzhi looked at her and said in a soft voice, "You didn't say anything wrong, and you don't need to worry. We weren't born to cater to the personalities of certain people, and people are equal, so you have the right to speak."
Hearing Zhang Liangzhi's defense, Ran Wenqi couldn't help but laugh, glancing at Long Lin'er intentionally or unintentionally, as if showing off her victory.
How could Long Lin'er possibly tolerate it?
He slammed a glass of wine on the table and stormed off.
"Long Lin'er!" Lu Yunxi shouted and quickly chased after her. In an instant, two people were gone from the room.
Seeing this, Lu Qianqian said to Rong Changqing, "Why don't we go out too? I feel like something's not right."
She didn't want to be with Ran Wenqi, always feeling that there was a fake face hidden behind Ran's smiling face.
Being around fake people always feels uncomfortable.
After all, you can never know if there's a knife hidden beneath her smile.
Rong Changqing asked, "Are you full?"
Lu Qianqian nodded obediently: "I'm full."
"Since we're full, let's go." Rong Changqing smiled slightly, took her hand, and turned back to give Zhang Liangzhi an apologetic smile. "Then we'll be going now."
Zhang Liangzhi nodded: "Take care, don't bother seeing me out."
So Lu Qianqian and Rong Changqing left first, leaving the two children who hadn't finished eating to continue eating.
"Hey!" Zhao Jinli shouted as she watched Rong Changqing's figure disappear, "Why are you all running? Hey, wait for me!"
“Miss Zhao!” Zhang Liangzhi called out to her, “This is Miss Long’s residence. If you run out now and leave only the guests behind, I’m afraid that won’t be good.”
Zhao Jinli was completely confused: "I'm a guest too."
"Miss Zhao, you'd better stay. After all, there are two minors eating here!" Zhang Liangzhi didn't give her a chance and stood up to say to Ran Wenqi, "Let's go too!"
"Huh?" Zhao Jinli was dumbfounded, watching Zhang Liangzhi leave with Ran Wenqi.
"I'm not the host." Zhao Jinli looked puzzled. Why was she being asked to stay and look after the child?
……
"Long Lin'er!" Lu Yunxi quickly caught up and grabbed her arm. "Where are you going so late at night?"
"What business is it of yours where I go?" Long Lin'er turned around and abruptly slapped Lu Yunxi's hand away.
She was already seething with anger, so she vented it all on Lu Yunxi.
"I don't care what you do?" Lu Yunxi laughed in anger, her voice gradually turning cold. "I really don't want to care about you! But who told you to say you'd get married on March 15th? Since we're getting married, I have to uphold the image of both the Lu and Long families!"
Besides, did you ask for my opinion?
Did I agree?
Did you even consult me? You made this decision on your own and are still going your own way. Where do you put my dignity?
Long Lin'er is the kind of person who does what she says!
Especially when it comes to Zhang Liangzhi's matter, he acts completely irrationally, willing to do anything for the sake of face!
That's utterly irrational!
After hearing his words, Long Lin'er not only did not restrain herself, but also shouted back loudly: "Lu Yunxi, don't you know that marrying me is the most beneficial marriage between our two families, so you should be happy, not talking to me like this!"
She forcefully pushed Lu Yunxi's hand away and said in a harsh tone, "If you don't want to marry me, that's fine too. Go back and tell your parents to keep introducing you to countless blind dates. Ha, don't you understand that I'm rescuing you?"
"Alright." Lu Yunxi rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on. Forget it, it's best not to reason with a woman. "I'm not going to argue with you anymore, let's just move on. It's so late, where do you think you're going now!"
"It's none of your business." Long Lin'er repeated, "We agreed before that whether we get married or not, you have no right to interfere in my private life."
After saying that, Long Lin'er took out her keys, opened the car door, and prepared to get in.
Lu Yunxi quickly blocked the car's path, saying forcefully, "Don't you know what time it is? What are you doing out having fun? Besides, you've been drinking, how can you drive?"
"Can you shut up? Move aside." Long Lin'er still forced her way into the car, her mind already a mess of anger. "Move aside, or I'll hit you!"
"No way!" Lu Yunxi refused to move aside. What kind of girl would go out and play so late at night?
And he was driving under the influence!
"You're so annoying!" Long Lin'er was also reckless, and directly prepared to release the brake, intending to really crash into it.
"Hey……"
Just then, Lu Qianqian appeared out of nowhere, opened the passenger door, sat down, and said to Long Lin'er with a smile, "Where are we going? Can I come with you?"
Long Lin'er: "..."
At the same time, Shichijo opened the driver's seat door and said indifferently, "I'll drive."
Long Lin'er: "..."
Lu Yunxi: "..."
Rong Changqing walked up to Lu Yunxi, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Brother, shall we go have a couple of drinks?"
Lu Yunxi turned to look at him: "Hmm?"
Rong Changqing smiled faintly, grabbed his arm, and forcibly led him away from the car: "If you don't let her vent, she will feel even worse if she keeps it inside, so let her go. Besides, Qianqian and Qitiao are with her, so nothing will happen."
