Chapter 138: Private Commitment
In the early morning, the sparse street lamps reflected the desolation of Guicheng after the prosperity of Guicheng against the backdrop of the bright moon.
The car drove to the front of Zou Mansion and stopped.
"Knock, knock, knock" The heavy knock on the door disturbed the sweet dreams of others.
There were footsteps inside and gradually walked to the door, listening to the continuous knocking on the door, instead of opening the door, he asked with a little vigilance and panic: "Who is knocking on the door outside, do you know what this place is?" ”
Li Chengjing passed through the crack in the door and handed a sign in, this is Li Jiajun's order, "Please take this sign to your young master, and tell him that a few friends from Ningzhou are coming to disturb him tonight." ”
The person inside took the sign and walked in, and after a while, the door opened, and it was Steward Lin.
"The young master has already gotten up and is waiting for a few people in the hall."
Entering the hall, Zou Baoyi held his eyelids, looked at them hazyly, and asked weakly: "What are you doing in the middle of the night?" ”
Zou Bao'er also walked out of it, she was woken up by the movement outside, wrapped in a coat, and her eyes were also sleepy, and when she saw them, she rubbed her eyes, "Chengjing, shouldn't you be preparing for the wedding?" How did you come here? ”
"Can you let Steward Lin go down first?" Duan Shaoling's tone was a little solemn, and the spirits of the two brothers and sisters were pulled back by three points.
"Uncle Lin, you can go and rest first." Steward Lin and the others retreated, and there were only seven of them left in the hall.
They had been awake for seven minutes, looking at the five people who came to their house in the middle of the night, with gloomy and bitter expressions.
Zou Baoyi asked directly: "What's going on?" ”
Duan Shaoling sighed, "From tonight onwards, we have already left Ningzhou. ”
Zou Baoyi was puzzled: "What does it mean to leave?" ”
Zou Bao'er hurried to Li Chengjing's side, "What's wrong?" ”
Li Chengjing thought that they didn't want to speak ill of his father, so she had to tell the two brothers and sisters what happened. Duan Shaoling did not mention Xue Qingning's name in the letter, because Li Chengjing did not know that it was Xue Qingning who provided them with the news.
Zou Bao'er was surprised and said with concern: "Then wouldn't your wedding with Chen Zui ......?"
"Let's put this matter aside for the time being, let's stay at your house tonight, and then think about the rest of the matter when I explain it to my father."
Zou Baoyi said: "You are tired after tossing all night, you know the location of the guest room in the back, choose yourself." He yawned, "I'll go to sleep first." ”
"Chengjing, you can share a room with me."
Li Chengjing and Zou Bao'er entered the room, sat at the end of the bed, and didn't say a word sullenly. Zou Bao'er poured her a cup of hot water, and Li Chengjing just smiled at her very weakly.
Zou Baoer sat down to accompany her, or asked her; "Is your father really allied with the Gentiles?"
"Well, I've been to the hotel and seen the covenant in the hands of foreigners, and I can't be wrong."
Zou Bao'er had no choice but to say: "Everyone understands that you are being kept in the dark, and no one will blame you." ”
Li Chengjing laughed at herself: "But my father did this, and my face was not bright." ”
"Then what should you do with Chen Zui?"
A tall figure stood at the door outside the door, "Chengjing, are you asleep?" ”
It's Chen drunk.
"Let's go out and talk."
The small courtyard of Zou Mansion is full of strange flowers, bright and sultry, and the bright moonlight adds three points of emotion, which is easy to bring a couple into a state of affection before and under the moon. The two of them were not so effective at this time, and could only slightly ease their suppressed emotions.
It happened in a hurry, they didn't communicate well, and the two who were about to enter the palace fled back here within a day.
"Cheng Jing, there is still a step between us."
"Are you going to give up on me?"
"How is it possible, I just gave up staying in the Li family, and I never gave up on you."
Li Chengjing was happy again, and said tentatively: "Until now, unless you go back to Ningzhou to plead guilty to my father, and then swear to be loyal to the Li family forever, he will never marry me to you." ”
Chen Zui smiled nonchalantly, "Do you remember Principal Guo's speech on our first day of school?" At the time, I thought he was very verbose and didn't want to hear half of it. It was only in the last few months that I had some understanding of what he said, and then I joined the Li family, and when I arrived on the battlefield, I finally had a deeper understanding.
I may not have a great mind like Shaoling, and I can cherish my family and country, but I must not be a sinner of the country, and I can't agree with your father's approach. ”
Li Chengjing's eyes shone with determination as she looked at him, "I understand." ”
Chen Zui looked at her: "On the way back, I was thinking that after things settle down, I want to ask you if you are willing to give up the glory and wealth, the throne of the country and the throne, and be an ordinary girl." ”
Now his eyes had changed to affectionate longing.
Li Chengjing looked back and smiled, "You counted the time to deliver the letter to me, so that I could prevent my father from sending someone to arrest you." But after I read the letter, I went directly to the hotel, and found that you were gone, and immediately drove to chase you, do you know why? ”
"Why?"
"I firmly believe in the content of the letter, and naturally I guess that you will never return to Ningzhou after this trip." lowered his voice: "Thinking of this, I came running without caring about anything." ”
Chen Zui stroked her hair, "If you don't come, I will also look for you." ”
"Why do you need to come to Ningzhou to take this risk again, isn't it more difficult for me to be sandwiched between you and my father?"
Chen Zui thought about it and shouted, "Cheng Jing." ”
Li Chengjing said: "I never thought of inheriting my father's handsome position, when I saw the letter and that document, I realized that I was really tired, I finally knew what I wanted, I wanted to live for myself, with the person I liked, and live a plain life." ”
Chen Zui's left hand crossed her shoulder, and Li Chengjing's head leaned on his shoulder, and she found that the night was so good tonight.
When Li Chengjing returned to the room, her face had returned to her former brilliance and confidence, "It seems that you guys have a good chat, can you share what you are going to do." ”
Li Chengjing raised her eyebrows, "Private for life." ”
Zou Bao'er let out an "ah", and then cocked her thumbs, "Handsome." ”
Early the next morning, except for Li Chengjing, the rest of the people gathered in the hall early.
Li Chengjing borrowed their phone to call back to the Dashuai Mansion, but half an hour passed, and she still didn't come out. When it was almost an hour, Fang saw her come out of it with a smile, and smiled with relief, "It's okay, my father has withdrawn the pursuit warrant, and he won't embarrass you anymore." ”
Lu Baiting asked: "Cheng Jing, what reason did you use to persuade Li Dashuai?" ”
"Know it with reason, move it with emotion." Eight simple words to sum it all up.
As long as they scrutinize carefully, it is not difficult to guess that they are good friends with the Zou family, if Li Dashuai misses the old relationship and opens up to them, with Li Chengjing here, they will not reveal a word about his fornication with foreign countries, and if Li Jiajun has any financial difficulties in the future, the two families will not really stand idly by for Li Chengjing's sake.
But if Li Dashuai is wiped out, then in the future, the Li family will have no backup, not to mention, if his fornication with Fanbang is shaken out, he will lose the support of the people, and his desire to join Zhongnan and even annex the world will be difficult to realize, and he naturally knows how to choose the stakes.
Shen Hong said: "This matter has been revealed, what about your marriage with Chen Zui?" Will your father still approve of your marriage? ”
Li Chengjing glanced at Chen Zui, who walked up to her and took her right hand, "We don't need anyone's consent anymore." ”
"Wow! You guys are ......"
"You can also understand it as a private life."
"I didn't know what it meant to be dead until I died, but now I finally understand that there are really yours."
Zou Baoyi said: "In this drama, the male protagonist gives up fame and fortune for the female protagonist, and returns to seclusion hand in hand. ”
In the midst of everyone's laughter, a car stopped at the door, a familiar car.
"Isn't this Guo Yixuan's car?"
There were three people who got out of the car, and Guo Qianye came with Guo Yixuan and Leng Chuxian.
It turns out that Zou Baoyi has now taken over the family's business, and the cooperation with the Guo family is also up to him, at the end of the year, these days, the accounts of the two families always have to be reconciled, and it just so happened that this time Leng Chuxian was bored at home, and he also came over.
Leng Chuxian came over for a few days, and he had already met with the two brothers and sisters of the Zou family, and they also discussed that they would make an appointment to go to Ningzhou in advance, but they came too suddenly last night, and the brothers and sisters of the Zou family didn't care about mentioning Leng Chuxian.
"Chu Xian, long time no see, this is your father and your brother."
Leng Chuxian was surprised when he saw them at the door, nodded hurriedly, and hurriedly asked, "Aren't you in Ningzhou?" Why are they all here? ”
They couldn't reveal half a sentence about Li Qiyu's affairs, and they didn't know how to reply for a while, but Li Chengjing was in a hurry: "We're getting married, I should go back with Chen Zui to meet his father first, and get his permission, and they are all concerned people here, so they came back together." ”
"Then I asked Bao'er the day before yesterday, and she also said that you are not coming back."
"Temporary decision, Bao'er didn't know before coming."
Chen Zui hurriedly changed the topic, "Chu Xian, why don't you officially introduce your father and brother to all of us." ”
Leng Chuxian turned around and introduced each other for a few people who didn't know each other, and when she mentioned her brother, she was still so lightly understated.
Guo Qianye stepped forward and said to Chen Zui: "Mr. Chen, Miss Li, congratulations, I am reasonable, when the time comes, I will let Chu Xian bring a big gift to congratulate the two of you." ”
"Thank you, boss." The two of them responded as if nothing had happened.
After saying hello, Guo Qianye's eyes suddenly settled on Duan Shaoling's body.
