Chapter 116 End of the full text
On the second day of his birthday, Qi Ning was in high spirits, and he was smiling when he saw his colleagues, but he didn't pierce their hearts as usual.
Colleagues don't want to eat dog food, and they don't ask how they spent their birthday yesterday.
If it weren't for the diamond ring on Qi Ning's hand that was so conspicuous that people couldn't look away, there wouldn't be curious colleagues who couldn't help gossiping.
"Ah! Boss, did your girlfriend propose to you!"
"Don't blink, don't blink, I'm going to go blind!"
Qi Ning subconsciously covered the diamond ring on his hand, covered his mouth and smiled: "It's just a birthday present."
This sweet and embarrassing little expression makes people want to beat her up while eating lemons.
When Qi Ning saw this diamond ring last night, she was so shocked that she burst into tears unconsciously. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and stopped.
"Do you want to propose to me?" The corners of her mouth were raised high, and she was trying her best to suppress her joy in her heart, so as not to make herself look like she hated marriage too much, and the way she wanted to smile but didn't laugh looked a little funny.
"Do you want a marriage proposal?" Chu Yunjing chuckled, without asking her opinion, grabbed her hand, and put the diamond ring on her middle finger without any explanation.
"I'll ask you when you want to get married. You definitely don't want to get married now." Chu Yunjing said.
She also has no plans to get married in a short period of time. It's not that she doesn't want to get married, but her career is not yet stable, and she doesn't have the heart to think about other things.Anyway, the girlfriend can't run away.
And when Qi Ning was urged to get married by relatives in the past two years, Qi Ning directly said: "I will talk about getting married when I am 30!" This is what he has always said internally and externally.
Although the older generation advocates early marriage and early childbearing, Qi Ning believes that 30 is a good age. When I was in my 20s, my thoughts were always naive, and my temper had not yet been fully settled.
When I am 30 years old, I must have matured, and getting married is also responsible for the other half.
Qi Ning suddenly said: "Maybe same-sex marriage will be legal in two years?"
"I look forward to that day."
……
"I'm so sour! Let me touch it, I really want to have a beautiful love and the love of a rich woman..." The envy in the eyes of the female colleague was about to overflow, and she stretched out her hand to feel happy .
Although Qi Ning is afraid of breaking it, she is not a stingy person, and she is very happy to share her "joy".
As soon as the female colleague got started, several colleagues nearby also came over.
"Is this diamond real?" A colleague asked with curious eyes.
Qi Ning: "???"
"No, I want to say that this drill doesn't cost money. How much does it cost to make so many?"
"I don't know." Qi Ning shook his head, "She won't tell me."
She paused, and then added: "She said she will buy a bigger one after she proposes."
"..." The colleague returned the diamond ring to him with a mysterious smile.
Love dog, climb for me!
Mother Qi, who only saw the circle of friends after wearing the diamond ring for a day, also thought it was a proposal like her colleagues, and called her immediately after work.
At this time, Qi Ning was sitting in Chu Yunjing's car, ready to go home.
"Daughter!! You are finally married!!! Mom is so pleased!!!!"
As soon as she connected, she heard her mother's roaring voice, which was mixed with very high excitement.
"..." Qi Ning rubbed his ears, the eardrum was about to be pierced, "Mom, calm down."
"Tell me quickly, when are you planning to get married!"
"What kind of marriage, what kind of marriage! It's a birthday present!" Qi Ning replied, "I'm only so old, you just let me get married."
"You're 26, not too young! When I was your age, you could walk!"
"That's you." Qi Ning said impatiently, "Let us live together for a few years."
There are a lot of things to worry about when getting married, what if her mother is insane and gives birth?Although the technology is advanced now, two women can give birth to their own children as long as they spend money, but she doesn't want to deal with bottle diapers in a short time, and she and Jing Jing haven't had enough fun yet!
"I..." Mother Qi hesitated to speak, "Forget it, it's up to you."
"There is one more thing I want to tell you."
"What?"
"Your new house will be decorated next month, isn't it? According to our family's custom, there is a housewarming party when you move into a new house."
"..." Qi Ning was silent, "If you are so far away, don't bother, it's not like buying a house at home."
"That won't work!" Qi's mother said decisively, "For so many years, how much money have I paid with your Auntie Chu, and now I will definitely get it back after buying a house! I don't know when I will receive your marriage money. Besides, if you don’t invite those relatives, you’ll still say we’re stingy!”
After hanging up the phone, Qi Ning let out a long sigh.
Chu Yunjing, who was sitting in the driver's seat, heard a vague idea, and asked her through the rearview mirror: "What's wrong?"
"My mother said that a housewarming party will be held next month when the house is handed over. It is estimated that several tables will be set up."
"Just please, it won't cost much." Chu Yunjing didn't care.
"Eating is a trivial matter." Qi Ning looked at her, "When the time comes, I will definitely invite relatives from your family. Those relatives shouldn't know about our affairs, right? It doesn't matter to my family. My mother's fighting power is worth ten. Broken mouth. Mainly on the aunt's side, she was influenced by those relatives to urge her to get married in the past few years, right? Those people just don't like others."
For some reason, Qi Ning could already imagine the sarcasm of those relatives.
Chu Yunjing was silent.
After a long while, she said: "I have time to ask my mother's opinion."
The renovation of the house at the engineering department went smoothly and was completed a few days ahead of schedule.After taking over the house, all the things were moved there, and some new home appliances were purchased, and the two officially moved into their home.
Qi Ning personally designed the house, combining the styles they both like, and the finished product is almost exactly the same as the renderings. The warm home made them look forward to their future life even more.
Chu Yunjing also discussed it with her mother. Seeing that the little sister was very persistent, Chu's mother followed her will.
With the idea of solving this matter as soon as possible, the banquet was set on a sunny Saturday in a box of a five-star hotel.
Many relatives of the two families have settled or developed in Chonghai. There were quite a lot of people present that day, and there were three tables in total.
The relatives who had been encouraging Chu's mother to let her daughter get married also came. She brought her daughter-in-law with her, and the daughter-in-law also hugged her son who just turned one year old. The family looked very harmonious.
Mother Qi took a look, and cheerfully invited her to sit at the main table.The main table was occupied by the parents of both parties, and Qi Ning and Chu Yunjing each sat at a table to entertain the guests.
"Oh, have we met before? Remember that you are Yun Jing's eldest aunt?"
A group of people started to exchange pleasantries, talking about how the two children are doing at work, where the house they bought, how much they paid for it, and so on.
Qi Ning and Chu Yunjing listened to the lively conversation at the main table, and turned a deaf ear to it tacitly.Adding water to the chat is already an unspoken rule among relatives.
The banquet has begun, and the dishes served include those that swim in the sea, those that run on the ground, those that fly in the sky, and there are rare delicacies in the mountains.It is already the highest configuration in the banquet. Although the relatives of the two families are not familiar with each other, the delicious wine and dishes are in front of them.
Halfway through the banquet, the parents of the two families toasted and gave speeches.
Soon the relatives understood one thing.
This house was jointly bought by Qi Ning and Chu Yunjing.
Although some people heard a little bit of wind, they didn't care. Now that the facts are in front of them, they are dumbfounded.
This is the first time to have such a special housewarming banquet.
"Did Yun Jing buy this house together with someone else?" The aunt came to her senses and asked Chu's mother directly. Because she was close, her voice was not too loud.
Mother Qi looked at the two of them calmly, and saw her little sister nodded, and soon the eldest aunt began to educate her sister-in-law as if it was her own business: "I thought Yun Jing bought it herself! You mother What do you think! No matter how good the relationship is, you can’t buy a house together, what will happen after you get married!? At that time, you will inevitably have to divide the house! It’s not that Yun Jing can’t afford a house by herself, so why do you want to buy it with someone else? ?!"
Her voice became louder unconsciously, and the people on the table all looked sideways at her, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Mother Chu put down her glass, and for the first time did not echo her sister-in-law's words: "We don't care about Yunjing's decision, it's their young people's business."
"She is really stupid in reading and studying! I can understand the partnership business, but I have bought a house with someone else, what will I do if I am cheated in the future!" to persuade her to "turn back and do the same".
"Hey, I don't like to hear what you say, auntie." Mother Qi interjected at the right time.Into the topic, "My family, Qi Ning, still rarely cheats on a house?"
"That's not what I meant either..." The eldest aunt is a typical coward, and she instinctively feels that the other party is a ruthless person, and it is also at a banquet, it is impossible to be stupid enough to spoil the atmosphere and quarrel with someone.
"Actually. The decision to buy a house is the decision of two young people. We outsiders have no right to interfere." Mother Qi deliberately emphasized the word "outsider" and looked into the eyes of her aunt when she said this. A little more warning.
"Let's talk about it. They are a couple, what's wrong with buying a suite together? You can live if you settle down. If they want to, even if they buy a rocket, it's none of our business."
"What..." Auntie's eyes widened in surprise, before she finished speaking, Mama Qi added: "I think you are a sensible person, Auntie, you are definitely not like some people..."
Mother Qi deliberately paused, and then said: "My son is not well-off and can't make money. He has no ability to make his parents happy after marrying a wife, and he doesn't let his daughter-in-law go out to work and earn money, so she takes care of the children at home and spends her days around the pots and pans. , In the end, I still envy the ability of other people's children, and always want to be a shit stick."
She showed a kind smile to her aunt: "You say yes, aunt."
"..." The auntie's complexion quickly turned pale, feeling that she was being ridiculed, but she couldn't reply without naming her name, so she agreed twice with a dry smile.
The other relatives didn't say anything, and Qi's mother took the opportunity to give the cabinet for the child because of the public and being a host.There will definitely be relatives who are dissatisfied, but naturally they dare not say more at the banquet.As for what to say in private, as long as it doesn't reach her ears.
Some of the relatives of the Qi family present here are also aware of Qi Ning's sexual orientation, and most of them don't comment on it. Who knows when it will be heard by the parties concerned.You must know that Qi's mother was a ruthless character back then. Qi Ning's uncle had a quirk, that is, he liked to hold the child high. Qi Ning was still young and cried several times for fear of being lifted up. That uncle didn't care about Qi's father. exhortation.
In the end, Mother Qi went to the kitchen and took a knife and threatened her uncle viciously, so she was honest.Afterwards, he was still smiling, as if nothing had happened.When the news spread, those relatives naturally did not dare to provoke her.
Qi Ning and Chu Yunjing looked at each other across the air, and they both read a trace of admiration from each other's eyes.
The banquet lasted until seven o'clock in the evening and there was no plan to end it. After dealing with relatives for so long, Qi Ning was a little tired.
Seeing her exhaustion, Chu Yunjing found an excuse to take her out of the banquet at the right time, and the parents took care of the rest.
"Is it really okay for us to just leave like this?" When he reached the door, Qi Ning was still a little worried.
"It doesn't matter." Chu Yunjing said, "We can't chat with them here. Banquet, just find an opportunity for the three aunts and six wives to get together and chat about family matters."
Qi Ning thinks about it too, the sense of guilt is not so deep.
At the dinner table, she was persuaded to drink two glasses of wine. She was not drunk, but her head was a little dizzy. She looked at Chu Yunjing and said, "Have you been drinking?"
"I had a drink." Chu Yunjing replied.
Qi Ning leaned over and sniffed her neck, but his reaction was a little slow, "Oh, then you can't drink and drive."
"Let's take a taxi back." Chu Yunjing reached out to get the phone, but was stopped by Qi Ning. She reached out to hold Chu Yunjing's hand, clasped it lightly, and then slowly clasped her fingers together.
"Let's walk around."
There is a river-crossing bridge near the hotel, which will be illuminated with beautiful lights at night, attracting many couples to take a walk on the bridge and watch the river view and the lights of Wanjia together. It is a very romantic thing.So this bridge is also nicknamed Lover's Bridge.
In the past, every time I walked across this bridge, I drove here. This is the first time I walked.The bridge is very long, and at some distance there is a pair of sticky young couple hugging each other and whispering.
They walked forward slowly, and the street lamps elongated their shadows a bit, only the shadows of the two hands in the middle were closely connected.
Walk all the way from the head of the bridge to the end of the bridge, and finally stop at the grass beside the river embankment.
Qi Ning looked at the tall buildings on the other side of the river, and suddenly pointed to a building and asked, "Is our home there?"
Chu Yunjing followed her gaze, "Well... it should be there." She pointed in another direction and said.
Qi Ning stared at the direction Chu Yunjing was pointing at, which was also a tall building with lights on most of the windows.
She said with emotion: "That night when I was looking at the stars in Lianshan, I looked at the lights of thousands of families at the foot of the mountain and thought, if only I could have a light that belongs to me."
Chu Yunjing's voice was a little more sad: "At that time, I was thinking, as long as you like me too."
Qi Ning replied seriously: "I like you very much."
Chu Yunjing turned to look at her, looked at each other for a long time, and smiled slightly.
"Being a good friend before, I hope you have someone to accompany you when you are sad. It doesn't matter who it is, as long as you are not alone."
"Now I hope that person will be me. I was, I am, I will always be."
"Fortunately, we have been with each other since we were young, and we have never been absent."
"In the future, let me continue to tolerate your little willfulness." Chu Yunjing bent her lips, and under the bright moonlight, she became more gentle.
This is only gentle to Qi Ning.
"Then I will work hard to be your reliance." Qi Ning said.
"You have always been." Chu Yunjing held her hand tightly, as if she heard the heartbeat of the other party in an instant.
Qi Ning's heart moved, and he took the initiative to move over.
This kiss, only the moon can see.
You are my gentle faith in my tired life and the treasure I want to treasure for a lifetime.
