Chapter 297 Preparing for the Wedding
Grandma Rong scoffed inwardly. How could those real estate and catering businesses compare to hers?
This girl seems quite shrewd; she's actually pretending to be completely unconcerned!
She wanted to see if she really didn't care!
As long as Rong Changqing is with her, she will not give him a single penny!
"Since you've already made up your minds, what else can I say? I just hope you can keep your word and take care of Changqing for the rest of your life!" Old Madam Rong said reluctantly, but in the end she still agreed.
Lu Qianqian was overjoyed and looked at Rong Changqing with delight. They could finally be together openly.
Rong Changqing happily squeezed her hand and said with a light smile, "I'm sorry you had to suffer!"
Lu Qianqian shook her head: "What's this a grievance? Taking care of you for the rest of my life is a blessing, not a grievance!"
Rong Changqing chuckled, suddenly realizing that being a freeloader wasn't such a bad thing: "Then thank you, my wife."
"Of course, of course!" Lu Qianqian laughed heartily. The two were all lovey-dovey, completely oblivious to the fact that Old Mrs. Rong's face had turned green behind them.
“However, Grandma…” Rong Changqing turned to look at Old Madam Rong and said, “You must also admit your mistakes in the harm you caused to Qianqian!”
Grandma Rong's face darkened, and she asked coldly, "What do you mean? I've already agreed to let you two be together, aren't you satisfied yet?"
Lu Qianqian felt as if she was saying: "Although I killed someone, I have also promised you one thing, so you should be content!"
Rong Changqing nodded, also understanding the unspoken message from Old Madam Rong: "Qianqian and I only need our own consent to be together. We don't care whether others agree or not. The reason we're telling you this now is because we respect you as our elder."
"But you must pay the price for your mistakes. You can choose between compensation and an apology, or me calling the police!" Rong Changqing protected Lu Qianqian, his attitude resolute. "You can call me unfilial, but Qianqian, as my wife, was kidnapped and abandoned abroad by my family, her life in danger. If I didn't stand up for her, what kind of man would I be?"
"You, Rong Changqing!" Old Madam Rong's face turned pale with anger. "An apology and compensation are out of the question. How could I possibly bow down to this woman? I even agreed to you two being together. Now get out of here, get out..."
"Grandma, since you're unwilling to reconcile, then don't blame me later!" Rong Changqing said this before leaving with Lu Qianqian.
"Second Young Master..." Lu Qianqian followed him out of the Rong family and into the car, only then having a chance to speak, "Second Young Master, there's really no need for you to do this for me..."
"Qianqian!" Rong Changqing looked at her intently and affectionately. "Don't worry, they are my family. I won't go too far. But if we're too soft-hearted this time and don't teach them a lesson, they'll do it again next time, and the time after that..."
“But Grandma already agreed…” Lu Qianqian persuaded, “Harmony in the family brings prosperity in everything. I don’t want you to abandon your family for my sake!”
"Qianqian, you are born into a wealthy family, so you should know that family ties are the weakest in such families." Rong Changqing smiled lightly. "So if others don't care about you, why should you care about them? Besides, you are my wife, and I can't let you get hurt again and again."
"So, what are you planning to do?" Lu Qianqian wanted to ask him exactly how far he wanted to go, so that she could be prepared.
"Why shouldn't I get a share of the Rong family's shares?" Rong Changqing suddenly sneered. "My mother was a daughter-in-law whom the Rong family rightfully married. I am the eldest son and grandson of the Rong family. Even if I don't get a share of the Rong family's shares, my mother must get one. We can't let Lu Yalan and her son have them for free..."
"Huh?" Lu Qianqian was taken aback. Rong Changqing's focus was actually on the young master and Lu Yalan.
Moreover, the eldest son and eldest grandson?
Could it be that Lu Yalan and Xu Rushi are the same? They were both married into the family later, except that Rong Ziqing was born earlier than Rong Changqing.
Before that, he was just an illegitimate child!
After figuring it out, she looked at Rong Changqing with heartache, even feeling a sense of resonance, "Second Young Master..."
It turns out they were all the same; they were children who were abandoned by their fathers, lost their mothers at a young age, and grew up alone.
“Qianqian…” Rong Changqing held her hand tightly. This kidnapping was extremely dangerous, and they almost didn’t make it back. Why didn’t the Rong family, the instigators, make any compensation or apology?
"I will give you a satisfactory explanation!" This was his promise to her; from now on, he would not allow anyone to hurt her again.
Lu Qianqian took his hand and smiled gently, "Of course I believe you, but I don't want you to be surrounded by these negative emotions all day. We don't have anything to do this afternoon, so why don't we go shopping and pick out a wedding dress..."
“Okay!” Rong Changqing started the car. “I’ve found a wedding dress designer from a world-renowned brand, and we’ve already scheduled a time for you to take your measurements this afternoon. You can tell the designer your ideas then…”
The two walked and talked, their conversation revolving entirely around the wedding, from the wedding dress to the venue decorations, from the invitations to the on-site pastry design, meticulous and attentive, leaving no detail overlooked.
……
At this moment, Long Lin'er sat on the stairs by the riverbank, gazing into the distance.
Zhang Liangzhi slowly got out of the car, walked over and sat down next to her: "Did you call me out for something?"
Long Lin'er heard his voice, turned around and looked over, and sneered: "It's so troublesome to get you out of here now."
Zhang Liangzhi said impatiently, "I'm very busy!"
Hearing the meaning in his tone, Long Lin'er gave up completely: "Alright, this is the last time I'll meet you alone. I'll go get my marriage certificate with Lu Yunxi tomorrow!"
"Congratulations!" Two flat words, devoid of any emotion.
Long Lin'er suddenly felt relieved. There was no need to continue to dwell on a man who didn't love her: "Congratulations to you too, you're going to be a father soon!"
Zhang Liangzhi frowned and said, "Wenqi miscarried."
"Huh?" Long Lin'er was surprised.
Zhang Liangzhi looked into the distance and said in a very calm voice, "The child is not mine. I found her when she was entangled with another man, and she fell down on her own."
"..." Long Lin'er was somewhat surprised, not expecting things to develop in this direction. "Then, are you still going to get married?"
“Yes, she’s married!” Zhang Liangzhi said. “She fell and broke her leg, and she can never get pregnant again. Her parents said I have to take responsibility…”
"Zhang Liangzhi, are you a sucker who'll just take over someone else's marriage?" Long Lin'er shouted angrily. "Or is marriage just something you take for granted, that you don't care at all? You just marry anyone you can find!"
