Chapter 19 is the most lingering

The sight is entangled endlessly, and it is lingering. In the noisy crowd, the two of them seemed to be outside the world, and there were only each other's people and shadows in heaven and earth. Cheng Ruikai patted Cheng Molin, who was crying with joy, on the shoulder comfortingly and let go of Cheng Molin, he stood in the center of the huge living room, Gong Mengshu clearly heard him calling her name: "Mengshu, Mengshu......"

His voice was still so beautiful and mellow, her lips twitched, and even though she had a thousand words, she choked in her throat. It wasn't until he separated from everyone and stepped forward to hold her hand, and it wasn't until her cold slender hand was warmed by his warm big hand that Gong Mengshu was sure that Cheng Ruikai was really back, not her wishful thinking midnight dream.

"Ricky ......" She looked up at him, he was already two heads taller than her, her slender size was only up to his chest, so it took a little effort to look up at him.

She saw that he put down his cold expression and smiled at her, and the hand holding her was also tight, her heart was wide, and the joy of reunion suppressed all worries, like a flower after the warmth of spring, full of blooming in her heart.

"Go, follow me," Cheng Ruikai whispered to Gong Mengshu. Gong Mengshu replied with an "um" and followed behind him. At this moment, all the grievances and sorrows in the days of waiting were all eliminated in Cheng Ruikai's indifferent but gentle voice and actions. The two have been intimate since childhood, and their family members did not feel strange about their unruly behavior of holding hands, only the eldest young master Cheng Ruitai's face was a little gloomy.

Cheng Ruikai's return made Cheng Chazhong, the master of the Cheng family, extremely happy. There were still two tables for dinner, but the women made an exception to sit around with the men, and even Gong Mengshu was arranged by Cheng Ruikai to sit next to him. Gong Mengshu was a little restrained at the dinner table, so she didn't dare to look at people without squinting, and when she heard that the subordinates of the Cheng family serving the master seemed to be judging her and whispering, her head hung lower.

"Are you still so shy?" Gong Mengshu's ears heard Cheng Ruikai's low laughter that she could only hear: "You follow me, sooner or later you will have to face these people, and besides, what are you afraid of, you have me-"

Gong Mengshu listened to Cheng Ruikai's words, her face turned red, she raised her eyes, and saw his dark eyes staring at her a little narrowly. Her face was even redder, and she was usually a person who spoke clearly, but she didn't know how to deal with him at the moment. He seems to be really different from the past, more mature and free, and even a little wilted. She didn't know if it was his military career that changed him, or if he had that potential in the first place.

Fortunately, at this time, Cheng Chazhong's words allowed Gong Mengshu to temporarily get rid of the uncomfortable situation. Cheng Chazhong stood up with a wine glass, looked at Cheng Ruikai and said, "Ruikai is back today, the whole family has gathered, let's have a toast together-" Everyone quickly stood up. Cheng Ruikai stood up and was stunned to be a cut above others, and Cheng Chazhong was even happier when he saw it, "It seems that the military academy has cultivated a lot of things for my son, and you should make great achievements in the future, our Cheng family will rely on Ruikai and Ruitai, you two!

Cheng Ruikai gestured to Cheng Ruitai with a wine glass, Cheng Ruitai replied expressionlessly, and then barely showed a smile, and the two brothers toasted the glass of wine with everyone, and then sat down again.

The third young lady Cheng Molin looked at the air and asked Cheng Ruikai: "Second brother, can you tell me what you studied in the Whampoa Military Academy? I'm very curious, I heard that the students who graduated there are all generals who stand alone, will the second brother also become a general in the future?" Cheng Ruikai smiled when he heard this, and did not speak, but there was a look of ambition on his heroic face.

Cheng Chazhong heard this, and said: "Mo Lin, your second brother will be a person who will do great things in the future, my father sent him to the military academy, he has excellent grades in the military academy, and even the instructor said that he will have a great future in the future, and he will finally not disgrace the lintel of our Cheng family......"

Cheng Ruitai suddenly coughed on the side, causing the young grandmother Lin Xuexian to look at him worriedly.

"Wow, second brother, you are really amazing, if the eldest mother is still alive, she will definitely be happy for you, eldest brother, don't you say?" Cheng Molin exclaimed excitedly, but the faces of everyone at the dinner table sank.

When Mrs. Cheng saw the sudden coldness, she opened her voice and said, "Ruikai, grandma is really happy that you came back safely." Don't care about what your father said about state affairs, in my opinion, it is the right thing for a man to start a family first and then start a business! Look at Mengshu, this child has been waiting for you for a long time, and he is very worried about you......

Cheng Ruikai glanced at Gong Mengshu, who was silent with his head down, blushing, and responded to his grandmother: "Grandma, you don't have to say that I know ......."

"Well, it's good to have her in your heart......" Mrs. Cheng was about to speak, but Cheng Chazhong said: "Your grandmother is right, Ruikai, you should also marry a wife and have children." It just so happened that someone from the Lu family came to our house two days ago to inquire about you, saying that if you come back, you should hurry up and go to the Lu family's mansion to propose marriage, Miss Lu is also old, and she can't afford to wait......"

Cheng Ruikai frowned when he heard this, thought for a moment, and did not respond.

Cheng Chazhong looked at the taciturn Gong Mengshu, and said: "You and Miss Gong have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, I have no objection to your affairs, but you have to wait for the dust to settle between you and Miss Lu before you can make a decision." You have to prioritize everything, right?"

Cheng Ruikai hesitated, and then responded: "Hmm." But he felt that Gong Mengshu seemed to be shivering beside him.

After dinner, the crowd dispersed. Without Cheng Ruikai's instructions, someone carried his luggage to tidy up the room. Gong Mengshu wanted to stay and help clean up the scraps, but no one asked her to help tonight. The second young master is back, and Gong Mengshu's task is to serve the second young master Cheng Ruikai, and no one has any objection to this.

Cheng Ruitai didn't say a few words since Cheng Ruikai entered the door, he stood in the dining hall for a while, the young grandmother Lin Xuexian accompanied him, Cheng Ruitai saw that Lin Xuexian didn't leave, frowned and asked her, "Why are you staying here?"

"Where Xianggong is, Xue Xian will naturally be there," Lin Xuexian quietly approached her husband and whispered: "As long as Xianggong doesn't dislike me, Xue Xian is willing to accompany Xianggong forever." ”

Cheng Ruitai stared at Lin Xuexian for a long time, and then saw Cheng Ruikai and Gong Mengshu leave the dining hall, then nodded and said to Lin Xuexian: "It's rare that you have a heart, then you can accompany me to the garden for a walkβ€”β€”"

"Hmm," Lin Xuexian replied gently.
