Chapter 181: Thirteen Years of Listening to the Voice
The next day, they woke up with the phone ringing again.
Pei Lurong took it for granted that it was Cheng Yu's phone, picked it up, and said angrily: "I hope you had better be in a hurry!"
The other party was stunned for a moment, and when he heard that he was sleeping, he realized that he was getting up, "Xiaorong, I watched the news, is it true?!"
Hearing his mother's voice, Pei Lurong woke up immediately and sat up from the bed.
"Well, really. β
Wan Fang: "What's going on? It's such a coincidence, why didn't Shen Fanghua show any clues when he came to my tea party before?"
Pei Lurong couldn't cry or laugh, "Mom, in short, you don't care about this matter for now, let's take care of it and then tell you." β
Wan Fang called just to confirm, and now that the news is confirmed, of course he won't bother with it, and hung up the phone after a few casual orders.
And Lu Jingyuan was not spared, her mobile phone also rang, and two rounds of bombardment had cleared most of her sleepiness.
She rubbed her hair and picked it up depressedly.
Xu Youran: "Damn! It's not true, is it?"
"What?" her consciousness was still in a state of confusion.
"What the news said, are you the Cheng family? Bai Fumei?"
Although the description was a little embarrassing, she admitted, "It should be." I only found out about it after watching the news last night. β
"Such a drama? As the protagonist, you only knew about it last night? Anyway, Cheng Yelei really saw through the red dust? I still don't believe it, she is a demon-level figure in this circle!"
"I don't know!"
"Then what are you going to do?" Xu Youran was a little curious.
"Sleep. β
"Sleep?!" Xu Youran couldn't figure it out even more, "You can still sleep now?" You have found your parents, but also, your husband is so good to you, forget it, I'm here to confirm the news, you want to sleep or recognize each other, you decide." β
Probably everyone has woken up one after another, and people they know have called or sent WeChat messages for verification when they saw the news.
The two of them coped with it one by one, and it was so deserted all morning.
Pei Lurong contacted Cheng Yu while Lu Jingyuan was away.
Hearing what he said, Cheng Yu was overjoyed, "It's really good! I now believe that your IQ is not covered, I will immediately leave this good news to tell my second uncle's family, they must be very happy, tomorrow they will prepare well, let your wife ...... Let my cousin feel the warmth of home. β
Hearing him say this, Pei Lurong's eyes were a few layers deeper, "But I said it in advance, let Uncle Cheng and them not exaggerate too much, she seems to be a little scared." β
"Afraid, what is she afraid to do? Second uncle, they won't eat her. β
Cheng Yu, who hadn't heard an answer for a long time, took a deep breath, "Okay, I'll definitely send this sentence to them, but seeing that you love your wife so much, I, as an elder brother, will be relieved." β
hung up the phone, Pei Lurong felt that he was taken advantage of by Cheng Yu, if he recognized him, then it meant that Cheng Yu was really his cousin.
Forget it, as long as she is happy, it's a big deal that he will turn a blind eye to Cheng Yu in the future.
But in the afternoon, Lu Jingyuan received an unexpected phone call.
Looking at the unknown number on it, she frowned, "Hello?"
When the other party heard her voice, he immediately became excited, "It's Jingyuan, right?"
At this moment, Lu Jingyuan's whole person seemed to have been struck by lightning and froze in place, the person's familiar voice continued to talk to her, and the people on the side seemed to be in a hurry, so they immediately grabbed the phone and changed to a woman, "Hey, Jingyuan?"
The voice was still the same familiar, and she had listened to it for thirteen years.
is Yuan Runqiu's parents.
"What are you calling?" her voice was a little colder, "If I'm not mistaken, we don't have anything to do with each other, do we?"
Yuan's mother was a little unhappy, "You child, how can you say that? Our Yuan family has also raised you for thirteen years, how can this relationship be broken?"
"So you're looking for me for Yuan Runqiu?" she said expressionlessly.
"That's your sister, you called her sister for so many years, and now your sister has been framed like this, why don't you help her clarify, the Yuan family has raised you for so many years, you should always help with this favor, right?"
Although he was begging her for help, his tone was high, just like back then.
Lu Jingyuan: "Help her? Why should I help her? When she framed me, did she ever think about calling me sister?"
"Don't ...... you"
Hearing that Yuan's mother was about to speak out, Lu Jingyuan immediately interrupted, "When she bullied me when she was a child, but she put the blame on my head, you all know it, right? But in order to make her happy, you deliberately believed what she said, ...... Do you think I don't know? Or do you think I'm as stupid as I used to be, and I have to endure her bullying because you gave me money to feed me?"
Mother Yuan was furious, but her tone was still a little restrained, "You can't treat her like this, she's only 24 years old, you're ruining her future." Jing Yuan, even if your mother begs you, you can help her, you just need to post a Weibo, saying that it was all Cheng Yelei's nonsense, and Cheng Yelei deliberately dragged Runqiu into the water. β
"Mom?" Lu Jingyuan couldn't help sneering, with a bit of gloom in his voice, "Please don't insult this title, I have a mother now, and this is Yuan Runqiu's own doing, when she framed me several times, did you ever think that I was only 24 years old? When she accused me of stealing things in high school, did you ever think that I was only 18 years old? Including when I was dropped out of school later, did you think about my feelings? You haven't thought about it, all you want is to use my blood to save your daughter."
You have spent money to raise me for so many years, but you just want to raise a blood cow by your side, since you understood the facts at the beginning, why do you want to kidnap me with feelings now?"
Mother Yuan roared, "You are so vicious, you are simply a white-eyed wolf." β
Seeing that the other party was not calm, Lu Jingyuan calmed down, "Oh, yes? Anyway, I am very happy to see Yuan Runqiu get the retribution she deserves, and I will never feel uneasy. So be it, don't contact me in the future. β
Without waiting for Yuan's mother to answer, she hung up the phone directly and pulled the number into the blacklist.
She is not a Mary Sue heroine, she can't forgive those who hurt her, but she won't deliberately retaliate, such a result is the best for her or for Yuan Runqiu.
As soon as Pei Lurong came in, he saw her lying on the bed with half of her body on the bed, her face full of smiles, and when she saw him come in, she bulleted.
He exclaimed, "What's wrong? so happy?"
"I did something I wanted to do for a long time but never had the guts to do. She shrugged her shoulders, her smile full of lightness.
Hearing her say this, Pei Lurong pursed his thin lips, "I also have something that I have wanted to do for a long time but have never had the courage to do." β
"What?"
He stepped forward with a wicked smile, and went over to pinch the flesh on both sides of her cheeks, this play became addictive, rubbing round and flattening, Lu Jingyuan was speechless, what a naΓ―ve man.
On the way to Cheng's house the next day, Pei Lurong did psychological work for Lu Jingyuan for a long time, so that she was not so afraid.
In fact, he didn't understand why she was afraid.
Even Lu Jingyuan herself couldn't understand, although she had met Shen Fanghua and learned from Pei Lurong that she was a very gentle mother, she was still inexplicably flustered.
Along the way, Lu Jingyuan remained silent and didn't talk much, but Pei Lurong, who didn't talk much, kept talking.
He told her the joke he saw on the Internet, and seeing that she only smiled faintly and didn't make a sound, he changed the way to ask the question again.
"You see, right? My Weibo followers are about to surpass you. β
She said lightly, "Oh, yes." β
"Aren't you surprised?" he said, his hand on the steering wheel, "doesn't that prove that I'm more popular than you?"
"Well, yes. β
He frowned, and his mind turned, "A netizen wrote us a fandom, and I sent him a red envelope of 1,000 yuan." β
Lu Jingyuan turned his head to look at him, his eyes full of incomprehension, "No, how can you send him so much? Now the salary of an online writer is not so high, and he can write a few words of the same language? Is there 200,000 words? It's enough for an average online writer to pay a month's salary! You just look at it, why do you pay so much money?"
Seeing that she had returned to her usual nature of being a money obsesser with her theory, he laughed along, and the big stone in his heart was put down.
He glanced at her and smiled, "Not nervous now?"
She was stunned, and after giving him a blank look, she held back a smile, "Okay, okay, I'm not nervous!
"Wellβactually, I'm telling the truth. β
"......" After she was silent for a moment, she suddenly thought of something, "Pei Lurong!
"What's mine, yours, isn't mine yours, yours is still yours, right?"
She clasped her hands to her chest and pretended to be angry, but the upward curve of the corners of her mouth still betrayed her true emotions, "I'm not so unfair, forget it, I said I want to support you, and the 1,000 yuan should be regarded as the initial investment!"
The two of them just said one sentence to me, and not long after, the car was already on the road that was about to be handed to Chengjia, and the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became a little nervous.
Of course, the most nervous is Lu Jingyuan.
"It's here. He pulled on the handbrake and unbuckled his seatbelt.
Lu Jingyuan seemed to be a little dumbfounded, "...... Oh. β
She went straight to open the door and was stopped by him, "Wait." β
She turned her head and looked at him puzzled.
Pei Lurong leaned over half of his body, and in her surprised eyes, there was a "click", and the seat belt was unfastened, and she understood his intentions.
He smiled embarrassedly and went to open the door with his right hand.
He took her cold left hand, "So nervous?"
Poked by him, Lu Jingyuan sighed and nodded reluctantly, "Hey, don't call me hypocritical, I don't want to be nervous, but the matter of mental activity is very difficult to deal with." β
"Don't be nervous, they're not fierce, they're looking forward to seeing them. β
She shook her head, and the right hand that opened the door was retracted, "I know." β
"Still nervous?"
She nodded silently, "I'm not worried about them, I'm afraid of ......" Her head got lower and lower, "I'm afraid that I don't do well, if I say something wrong and make them unhappy, or if I don't perform as well as Cheng Yelei, they will always compare......"
She spoke incoherently.
It turns out that this is the case, and yes, she has never felt the love of her parents since she was a child, and the two abandonments and the life under the fence have taught her to look at people's faces and do things, so she will have this kind of worry.
Pei Lurong raised his hand to straighten her head and met her eyes, "Just be yourself, you don't have to worry about anything, even if you do something wrong, even if they don't like you, you still have me!"
His eyes are like the shade of a tree in summer, giving people stability and comfort.
Yes, she still has him, and even if she does something wrong, he will always stand behind her, just like before.
Her heart, which had been fluctuating, suddenly settled down.
"Hmm!" The cowardice in her eyes immediately dissipated, and as soon as she opened the car door, she saw a big face reflected in the car window, which frightened Lu Jingyuan and kicked the door open while leaning back.
Cheng Yu didn't have time to dodge at all, and just happened to be hit by the car door and snorted, "Cousin, you don't have to murder me like this!"
Pei Lurong caught Lu Jingyuan, looked at Cheng Yu with a hideous expression, but laughed, "Who told you to stand outside the car door without saying a word?"
Cheng Yu had already straightened up, clutched his chest and complained, "Didn't I come to greet you on orders?"
I have to say that after Cheng Yu was so frightened and his unlucky experience, Lu Jingyuan was not so nervous.
Until the moment before walking into the door of the villa, Lu Jingyuan was still apologizing to Cheng Yu, "I'm really embarrassed, my kick just now was heavy, do you want to find a doctor to take a look at it for you?"
Cheng Yu waved his hand, "It's okay, let's go in, they should be in a hurry." β
The door immediately opened, and Cheng Yu opened the way for the two.
Although Pei Lurong has come to the Cheng family's mansion countless times, it is the first time he has come as the grandson-in-law of the Cheng family, and he has really become a family all of a sudden, not to mention Lu Jingyuan, he is a little indescribably nervous.
As soon as I stepped into the threshold, I saw a family standing behind the door.
The three masters of the Cheng family are all here, except for Cheng Yelei and Cheng Anhui, it can be said that all the members are here.
A pair of eyes were full of expectation and joy to look at the three of them, Cheng Yu didn't react, exclaiming, "Grandpa, why did you come out?"
Cheng Baishan seemed to be particularly happy today, "You haven't come in after going out for so long, we want to go out and have a look." β
Then, Cheng Baishan paused slightly, first nodded at Pei Lurong, and then looked at Lu Jingyuan beside him, "Coming?"
Lu Jingyuan clenched Pei Lurong's palm, pursed his lips and nodded, "Hmm".
"Child......" Shen Fanghua's eyes were already red, and he was forced back by Cheng Baishan's eyes as soon as he made a sound.
Yes, yes, yes, you have to let her get used to it first, otherwise it will scare her.
She secretly wiped her tears, flustered in her heart, but there was a smile on her face, "Come, let's go eat first, you should be hungry, you young people are just not used to eating breakfast, hurry up and eat a little to cushion your stomach." β
Lu Jingyuan was pushed in by Shen Fanghua's shoulders, Lu Jingyuan looked at Pei Lurong behind him helplessly, feeling encouragement from his eyes, she simply twisted her eyebrows, forcing herself not to be too nervous.
