On the morning of the weekend, Qu Zhen was woken up by a phone call from Ruan Mei.

reminded her of the lunch dinner, and the tone was still the usual strong and authoritarian, as if the peach incident had not happened a few days ago.

Maybe she felt that as long as she didn't mention it, this matter would be like all the past contradictions, and it would be slowly forgotten after the precipitation of time.

But she didn't know that all the little things she had forgotten had left a small scar on Qu Zhen's heart.

Over time, that heart has long been hurt by family affection.

Qu Zhen didn't actually report any expectations, hung up the phone with a cold 'oh', glanced at the time, and continued to sleep.

At half past nine, the doorbell rang, and it was the servant of the Qu family, who brought the clothes and bags that Ruan Mei bought for her last time.

She ignored them, let them pile up haphazardly in the hallway, collapsed on the bed and closed her eyes again.

When she woke up again, it was eleven o'clock, she washed up slowly, and picked out a comfortable and formal set of clothes in the cloakroom.

A black dress, a small green fragrance jacket on the outside, with a simple necklace, a silver watch on her wrist, light makeup, and a pair of black leather shoes on her feet.

She rarely dresses so ladylike, even when she goes to work, she is mainly comfortable and casual.

The slightly curly hair was sprinkled with essential oil and draped casually over the shoulders.

went out with Chanel's classic bag on his back, carrying the things that Ruan Mei asked her to give to Lu Qingru's parents.

She also went to the mall two days ago and picked out two things for herself.

It's not expensive, but I always feel that it's more sincere than what others buy on their behalf.

On the way, she sent a message to Lu Qingru, asking him if he was coming to the banquet today?

Lu Qingru replied after five minutes: Talking about our engagement date, I am not there, who are you engaged to?

It makes sense.

Qu Zhen: Haven't you been training in the team recently, let me ask if it's okay yet?

Lu Qingru: Combining work and rest, rest today, and play the day after tomorrow.

Qu Zhen didn't go back.

There are not many cars on the road on the weekend, but there are many intersections, and the traffic lights at several intersections take a long time, and when she arrives, she is actually ten minutes late, and the people from the Lu family have already arrived.

Lu Qingru sat lazily next to his mother.

Qu Zhen looked at the past and met the stares of her parents.

Then Ruan Mei noticed that she was not wearing the dress she bought, and her face was even more pale.

may feel that the seemingly outdated clothes on her body have lost the face of the Qu family.

But in the face of the Lu family, it is definitely not good to blame or belittle anything.

At this dinner, only the Lu family and Lu Qingru, and the Qu family took Qu Zhen with them.

Qu Zhen took the lead in apologizing to the Lu family, and did not elaborate on the reason for being late, so as not to feel like finding an excuse to shirk responsibility.

After taking a seat, she and Lu Qingru glanced at each other.

I haven't seen him for more than 20 days, and his face hasn't changed much, except for a little obvious dark blue under his eye sockets.

Lu Qingru's mother Ye He still likes Qu Zhen, she has no daughter, if she hadn't injured her body because of the bastard Lu Qingru, how could she have to fight for a third child and give birth to a daughter.

In school before, when she held a parent-teacher conference for Lu Qingru, she also met Qu Zhen a few times.

I really like this girl's temperament.

At least, she felt that if it were her own child, it should be.

When Qu Zhen gave the gift, she also smiled.

The one prepared by Ruan Mei looks particularly high-end, she bought a jade tassel hairpin herself, the color of the jade is very pure, but it is not the best, the price is about twenty or thirty thousand, and the price of a high-quality inkstone selected for Lu Qingru's father is also about twenty thousand.

They had given Qu Zhen a meeting gift before, which was also a gift she thought she wanted to return with sincerity.

But Ruan Mei naturally didn't like these things, and felt that they were too low.

"The children have no vision, the things are not good, don't take it to heart."

Ruan Mei suppressed her heart and wanted to reprimand Qu Zhen, revealing a dignified smile.

Ye He smiled, "How come, this is Zhen Zhen's intention, besides, this hairpin has been chosen in my heart, I like it very much." ”

Qu Zhen also laughed and said, "It's good if your uncle and aunt like it." ”

Ye He said this, and Ruan Mei naturally didn't say anything more.

It's just that this daughter who cocks her tail when she gives a little sunshine hates that iron doesn't make steel.

In the middle of the meal, the two parties began to talk about the date of the engagement.

In fact, before this, both of them had a day orientation, so the conversation went a lot smoother.

Thinking that Lu Qingru was going to play a game now, and it would be the New Year after the fight, he simply put the date in March, and then got married in the summer or autumn.

It's a matter of course, it's good.

When asked about the two parties, they had no opinion.

The parents on both sides were chatting about family life, and Qu Zhen wanted to leave for a while on the pretext of going to the bathroom.

But I didn't want Ruan Mei to stand up too, "It just so happens that I'm going too, let's go, let's go together." ”

Qu Zhen glanced at her and felt tired.

Without saying anything, he turned around and left.

Sure enough, when she arrived at the bathroom, Ruan Mei began to shout, "Qu Zhen, you stop!" ”

Qu Zhen didn't listen, went in to go to the toilet, and when she came out, Ruan Mei's face was even more ugly.

"You're getting more and more disobedient now, I just told you to stop, you can't hear?"

"Didn't you hear me when I said I was going to the toilet?" Qu Zhen asked rhetorically, "Do you have to let me stand still and criticize you, so you feel more comfortable?" To satisfy your sense of superiority at the top of the food chain? ”

"You!"

Ruan Mei was so angry that she raised her hand and wanted to hit her.

Qu Zhen shook the water in her hand and stood still, staring at her for a moment.

"What day is it? You think I want to criticize you? Ruan Mei put down her hand, "It's okay if you're late today, look at what you're wearing?" And what did you give? Isn't there a shame? ”

"I've already prepared a gift for you, just give it to you, what's more, you have to buy those things that don't go into the stream."

"Those things don't flow in your eyes, but in Aunt Ye's eyes, those are hearts."

"Mind? Heh, you're really naïve, it's not good for us to save face, you really think people can look up to your little thing. ”

The more Ruan Mei spoke, the more angry she became, "You said that the outfit I bought for you cost me one or two million, and you don't wear it, you have to wear your outdated rags." ”

"Since I was a child, what have you looked down on me?"

Qu Zhen asked calmly, "Even if I wear the set you bought, I'm afraid that in your eyes, I will ask Hanako to steal the master's clothes, why bother?" I just like my, what's wrong? ”

"You haven't cared about me since your junior year, and now you have to care not only about my marriage, but also about what I wear? Didn't I leave myself to fend for myself? Wouldn't it be better for me to die outside? ”

Ruan Mei blushed with anger, "Qu Zhen! Don't think that if the Lu family and his wife are here today, I won't dare to beat you! You don't want to think about it, if you didn't have me, where would you come from? ”

Qu Zhen smiled, "It's not that I begged you to give birth to me, I wish you strangled me to death when I was born." ”

With that, he turned around and walked out of the bathroom.

I saw a familiar figure outside.

She was stunned, and the tears in her eyes were forced back.
