Lu Zhu checked his makeup in the bathroom mirror, and there was no place to take off his makeup, so he didn't need to call a makeup artist to come over to touch up his makeup for the time being.

She came out of the bathroom and heard the sound of talking from the door, but she couldn't hear what she said, only to see Jiang Huaining turn around and close the door, with a faint emotion on her face and a lack of expression.

"I sound like Hu Shengdong's voice?" Lu Zhu asked.

"Hmm." Jiang Huaining walked over and wrapped around her waist, the toast dress was a slim indigo starry sky skirt, which modified her figure exquisitely, he admired the extreme collision of snow-white skin and dark blue starry sky, paused for a few seconds, and confessed to her, "Tell you something."

"What's the matter?"

Lu Zhu felt that his mood didn't seem to be good.

As Xie Ning said, Jiang Huaining didn't want to mention Ye Shunan on a festive day like today, but they had an agreement before that they were not allowed to hide anything from each other.

"Ye Shunan cut her wrists and sent me photos before the wedding. I called the police, who rushed to her home in an ambulance and found out that she had directed and acted in a play." Jiang Huaining finished speaking, the corners of his mouth lifted, and he barely showed a smile, "I blocked all her contact information, and she will toss it in the future, we don't care, live our own lives."

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Lu Zhu was so shocked that his heart stopped. Fortunately, Jiang Huaining didn't have the habit of panting when she spoke, and when she heard him say that Ye Shunan was self-directed and self-acting, she didn't know whether to be angry or glad that it wasn't true.

Lu Zhu put his hands on his shoulders, hooked his fingers on the back of his neck, tilted his head and sighed softly: "I seem to understand the meaning of the phrase 'poor people must have something to hate'."

Jiang Huaining lowered his head and pecked her lips in this position, and suddenly had a feeling that it is not a good thing for people to be too soft-hearted sometimes: "In the future, we will be less kind and pay more attention to each other."

Lu Zhu knew his subtext, which was nothing more than to say that they were too kind to Ye Shunan in the past, thinking that she had suffered misfortune, and forbearance out of sympathy, causing the other party to think that both of them were good talkers, and they became more and more inattentive and did not know how to restrain themselves.

Lu Zhu said in a serious tone: "You don't have to give up food because of choking, there are more good people in the world who know how to repay kindness."

Jiang Huaining: "Listen to you."

Lu Zhu curled her lips and smiled, and just as she wanted to say something, her lips, which had withdrawn less than an inch from her lips, chased after her again, and all the words she was about to say were crushed back.

Jiang Huaining wanted to kiss her in the banquet hall, but because of her thin skin, she repeatedly restrained herself, and finally waited until only the two of them were there, and was interrupted by Hu Shengdong who suddenly appeared. Now that he can finally be warm with her, his kiss is like summer rain, hot flashes are fierce, and he seems impatient.

Maybe someone heard his heart, and he had to let him do it, but after a while, there was another knock on the door outside, rapid and intense.

Jiang Huaining turned his face, his gloomy eyes flashed, and he was so annoyed that he couldn't help but curse.

Lu Zhu was so dizzy by the kiss that he raised his eyes to catch a glimpse of his irritable look, and somehow poked her laughter, and couldn't control his snort.

Jiang Huaining was slightly stunned, and met her gaze, very incomprehensible: "Are you quite happy?"

Lu Zhu didn't explain, pushed his shoulder, and urged, "Go and open the door." People knocked on it for so long."

Jiang Huaining lost his temper, pressed his eyebrows and went over to open the door, and the hotel staff reminded him with a smile that his parents asked him to come over to toast the guests.

Lu Zhu in the room couldn't help but be annoyed when he heard the words of the staff, and almost forgot to get down to business.

She hurriedly ran into the bathroom and rechecked her makeup, blaming Jiang Huaining for messing around, and the lipstick on her lips needed to be refilled. There is some oil in the noodles, so you have to press it with powder.

Lu Zhu took his mobile phone to contact the makeup artist and made up his makeup before going to the banquet hall. Her appearance has not changed, but she has taken off the tiresome crown, and there is only a rose-shaped hair ornament between the black hair, which is gentle and moving.

Before getting out of the elevator, Jiang Huaining whispered in her ear: "I said hello to the staff, and the liquor served to you is pure water, remember to pretend to be like it when toasting, don't show the stuffing."

Lu Zhu put one hand to his mouth and whispered, "The moment to test your acting skills?"

"So to speak."

"How do you pretend to look like it?" Lu Zhu was worried that his acting skills would be exaggerated and embarrassed in public, "You teach me."

"Do you still need me to teach you how to be drunk?" Jiang Huaining raised his eyebrows, "I remember that you used to drink and always get drunk, your eyes were foggy, and you walked crookedly. You're not impressed?"

Lu Zhu stared, slightly speechless: "I don't take you to dismantle the stage like this." Forget it, I won't ask you, I'll do it when I have the opportunity."

He didn't want to think about it, could she walk crookedly in front of so many guests?

"Just kidding." Jiang Huaining said, "Now teach you seriously, pretend to speak slowly, preferably with a little stammer, if the face can be a little red, it will be more realistic."

「……」

The two came to the banquet hall, the waiter brought a tray, one took a glass of wine, first went to toast the elders, then Dad's business partners, and finally classmates and friends.

Peers can make a fuss, and the one who took the lead was Fu Shangze, a sports committee member in the second year of high school: "You two have a glass of wine, and the toast at our table will be exempted." After speaking, he looked at his old classmates at the table, "How about my proposal?"

The squad leader Zeng Xiang applauded and echoed: "Lao Fu is right. We are witnesses to the relationship between the two of you, and in ancient times, we were half matchmakers."

Jiang Huaining and Lu Zhu glanced at each other and smiled helplessly.

This group of old classmates still has to give face. Jiang Huaining asked Lu Zhu's opinion in a consultative tone: "Why don't we have one?"

The crowd erupted in laughter, and someone quipped, "Xiaocao, your family status is not high."

The next second, someone retorted: "You know a fart, people call it hurting their wives."

"That's it, as long as a man has a high status outside, what status do you need at home, your wife is living with you, not competing with you for a job."

The last class reunion was the winter vacation of freshman year, and a group of people got together to talk about careers and ideals. After many years of not seeing each other, everyone's vision for the future has become an understanding of marriage and family.

Fu Shangze returned to the topic in time: "Don't talk about things, we will focus on the bride and groom."

Lu Zhu grabbed Jiang Huaining's sleeve and whispered, "Come on."

Jiang Huaining asked her again with his eyes, are you serious?

What is this. Lu Zhu replied to him with a look.

The eye contact between the two did not escape the eyes of others, and the atmosphere became lively, and Fu Shangze said the loudest: "See it, this is "Eye Sending Autumn Waves". Jiang Xiaocao insisted that they didn't talk in high school, and I didn't believe a word. That's how Jiang Xiaocao looked at us Lu Zhu in the second year of high school."

Jiang Huaining clarified this rumor many times, and he himself couldn't count it, so he simply let them misunderstand it and no longer explain it. But there was one thing he had to ask clearly: "What do you call us Lu Zhu?"

Fu Shangze snorted: "It's wrong, your Lu Zhu, your Lu Zhu is okay."

Everyone seems to have changed a lot, and there seems to be something in their bones that has not changed, and they can find the shadow of their youth.

Lu Zhu pulled Jiang Huaining's sleeve and whispered, "Come on." If they don't finish drinking and handing over a glass of wine, they don't know how many old things they will have to dig out.

Jiang Huaining's arms circled hers, and the two looked at each other, tilting their necks slightly and taking a sip of the wine in their respective glasses.

Fu Shangze asked, "I heard that there is a pary in the hotel at night, isn't it Jiang Xiaocao?"

Jiang Huaining nodded: "If you're not busy, stay and play at night."

"Vacations are all about fun, so you won't miss them."

Jiang Huaining took Lu Zhu to the next table to toast, and a few groomsmen helped block the wine, Jiang Huaining didn't drink much, compared to his usual amount of alcohol, it was still exceeded.

Lu Zhu watched his face get redder and redder. She drank plain water, and he drank real wine. She patted his arm lightly, "Are you okay?"

Jiang Huaining's eyes were still clear: "No, no problem."

"It's okay to talk with a big tongue?"

Jiang Huaining pinched the soft flesh on her waist and whispered to her, "Classmate Lu Zhu, you don't study seriously, you forgot what I taught you so quickly."

Acting skills?"

Lu Zhu was speechless, she was deceived by him, and she didn't think about acting at all.

"What should I do, Jiang Huaining, with your mind and acting skills, if you look forward to me in the future, how can my brain be your opponent." Lu Zhu pretended to be distressed and rubbed his forehead, worried about his future married life.

"Are you a pot genius? Specially deduct the black pot for me." Jiang Huaining pushed her forehead and said angrily, "Looking at the past, I have deceived you a lot, or do you expect me to have a lot of things? Do you want me to count them for you? Wife."

Lu Zhu didn't hesitate for a second, and immediately shook his head: "Don't count." She wrapped her two hands around Jiang Huaining's waist to stop him from turning over old accounts, "Let's go eat something at the banquet, I'm hungry." Aren't you hungry?"

Jiang Huaining couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I can't let my wife go hungry."

"What did you say?"

"Can't let my wife go hungry."

"Oh, I heard you."

"What did you hear?"

Lu Zhu didn't say anything, smiled awkwardly, and prevaricated with a perfunctory "nothing".

——

Most of the people who stayed here were young people.

Working in the field for most of the year, rushing to make a living, you may come back from the New Year holiday, and leave after a few days, without much opportunity to really relax. In the past, when the eleventh long holiday was full of energy, the vast majority of people would choose to stay in the rented house and lie down to kill a few days, and some would even spend overtime just to get a few times more wages.

When the news came out that Jiang Huaining was holding a wedding in his hometown, they decided to come back and get together no matter what.

Huang Shuhan held a glass of champagne that he had barely drunk, looking around for Gu Cheng's figure. As soon as she saw him on the couch here, she went to get a glass of wine, and the others disappeared.

After looking around, Huang Shuhan only saw Li Dekai, who was excitedly punching someone, she walked over and knocked on his shoulder: "Where's Brother Cheng?"

"Isn't Brother Cheng here?" Li Dekai pointed in the direction of the terrace, "I just saw him going in that direction."

Huang Shuhan hadn't been to the terrace to see it, so he dropped a "thank you" and walked through the crowd, and he was indeed there. The black suit jacket was taken off, like a rag thrown on the wrought iron chair, and he was wearing a white shirt with two buttons on the neckline, showing a little unruly.

Leaning sideways against the railing, with a cigarette in one hand and a glass of champagne in the other, he seemed to be comfortable, but when he got closer, he realized that he was not like that.

"Okay, you, hide here alone and enjoy, Li Dekai wants to play cards with you, but I can't find you anywhere." Huang Shuhan took a sip of champagne, blowing the cool breeze in the open air, and squinted his eyes, "You will still find a place, it's really comfortable."

Gu Cheng glanced at her: "I just want to be clean and pure, and you will destroy it all when you come."

Huang Shuhan didn't wear a bridesmaid dress, she rested in the hotel for a few hours in the afternoon, took a shower and changed into the clothes she brought, a light yellow long-sleeved skirt, and a row of pearl buttons on her chest, which made her a little more intellectual and elegant than usual.

However, as soon as she spoke, her true image was revealed.

"The terrace is opened by your house, only you are allowed to come to clean it, not me?"

"You overlord, who dares to order you." Gu Cheng said jokingly, leaned his neck and drank the champagne in the glass.

Huang Shuhan shook his goblet: "Do you need me to share it with you?"

"I thank you, no need." Gu Cheng looked at the night scene of Jin Yang, which was not much inferior to the bustling metropolis, and said in a strange manner, "The drinks in the audience have been wrapped up by Jiang Huaining, I want to drink as much as I want, I need to get it from you."

Huang Shuhan glanced at him: "Your tone is wrong, you won't still be eating old vinegar."

Gu Cheng was silent.

Huang Shuhan didn't stir up any other topics for a while, and the two enjoyed the night view of the city relatively quietly. Huang Shuhan sipped the wine one by one, she didn't forget today's wedding scene, Jiang Huaining lifted Lu Zhu's veil and hugged and kissed her. There was a person hiding in the dim light, looking at the two people on the stage with an astringent expression, and there were complex emotions in his eyes, including envy, remorse, regret, and more

There are many sincere blessings.

Huang Shuhan felt that he was not mistaken.

Because she was so close to him at the time, he was looking at somebody else, she was looking at him.

The silence lasted long enough, and Huang Shuhan broke it out loud and chatted about a topic that Gu Cheng didn't like to hear the most: "There hasn't been a girl who has been excited for so many years?"

Gu Cheng looked at her with surprised eyes: "How old are you?"

Huang Shuhan was stunned: "You don't know how old I am?" She didn't know why he was asking the question.

Gu Cheng said, "I thought you were an elder urging marriage."

「……」

The cigarette between Gu Cheng's fingertips accumulated a long piece of ash, he bent his index finger and tapped it, and the cigarette ash fell into the ashtray where the pebbles were placed, and some of it floated out with the wind.

If it weren't for the champagne in the cup, Huang Shuhan would have splashed his face: "If you can't speak, as a good friend, you can't ask a word."

Gu Cheng ignored her. Huang Shuhan didn't feel so hard to chat with him before, sighed, and played the role of a bitter elder: "Your boss is not small, and the conditions are not bad, why don't you put a little bit of your mind on your feelings, you know the job every day, look at your peers, and the children will play soy sauce."

Gu Cheng showed an indescribable look, he thought that Huang Shuhan was possessed by his grandmother.

"Take care of yourself, and don't ask your brother about it." Gu Cheng turned around, picked up the suit that had been left out in the cold, threw it on his shoulder, and held the empty goblet between his slender fingers, "Go play cards, you play by yourself."

Huang Shuhan's gaze followed his figure away, quietly watching him walk into the crowd and sit behind the sofa, blocked by others.

She retracted her gaze and smiled, subconsciously raised the goblet to take a sip, and when she handed it to her lips, she remembered that there was no more wine in the glass.

Huang Shuhan didn't follow him anymore, stayed alone on the terrace for a while, and returned to the box, where Jiang Huaining and Lu Zhu changed their clothes and came over.
