The engagement ceremony of Shi Yanjun and Lu Guangdong was held in the banquet hall on the fifth floor of the Wanda Hotel Shijingshan store not far from Lu Guangdong's home.
On Saturday morning, Lu Guangdong’s father, Lu Yahua, was carefully taking care of his tie at home. In front of the bathroom mirror on the left side of the living room, he looked at the man in the mirror who was less than fifty with satisfaction. He was still very handsome.
Lu Guangdong's mother Xin Meiyu was changing clothes in the bedroom. She chose a decent and dignified Chanel autumn dress. At the age of forty-five or six, the flashy clothes she wore at the engagement ceremony were not prudent enough.
The Lu family is a native of the capital, and their family owns two houses. Lu's father is in the toy business, has assets worth tens of millions, and his conditions are pretty good. You can give your children an allowance of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month, but the house they live in is not a villa or a large flat, but an ordinary two-bedroom and one-living room. Of course, there is a two-bedroom apartment of 80 square meters near the Fourth Ring Road in Beijing. The value of this apartment is no less than five million.
At this time, Lu Yahua's cell phone rang. It was his younger brother, "Brother, have you gone out?"
"No!" Lu Yahua said with a cheerful face.
"Brother, let's go to your place first and drive to the hotel together later." Lu Guangdong's uncle said.
"Okay!"
Lu Guangdong, who came home last night, had already changed into a suit and was sitting in front of the sofa in the living room playing with his mobile phone. Today's mobile phone software, whether it is for dining, taking a taxi, watching videos, or browsing news, all use big data to lock users into information cocoons.
While he was chatting with his girlfriend Shi Yanjun, he comforted her. Yesterday was Friday. After the two had a meal together, he drove his beautiful girlfriend to the Wanda Hotel to live with his prospective father-in-law and mother-in-law.
In fact, the full name of this Wanda hotel should be "Blue Lake Wanda Hotel", because this hotel has been acquired by my cousin's Falou Hotel Group.
And last night, his girlfriend Shi Yanjun sent him a message saying that he was very nervous. In fact, he can understand it. After all, the engagement ceremony was held here in the capital, and all the guests were his relatives and his father's friends. Shi Yanjun was only accompanied by his parents, and his cousin and sister-in-law came to participate. It was an away game, so it was normal to be nervous.
"Don't worry, Yanjun! Don't worry about anything inappropriate. Just be normal. You didn't see that I was alone when I met your parents a few days ago. How nervous am I? Isn't this what happened? .”
"(Laughing emoticon) x3, I am different from you. I am a girl. If I behave inappropriately, I will be laughed at." Shi Yanjun, like all little girls in love, chatted with her boyfriend non-stop.
Lu Guangdong smiled helplessly, changing the topic and his girlfriend's attention, "Yanjun, what's going on recently? Why did I wake up so early in the morning and see news criticizing and voicing negative news about Galaxy Group everywhere on the Internet? What does Galaxy Group do? I see Bai Xingguo, the general manager of the Beijing University Student Entrepreneurship Fund, has forwarded his WeChat account, Bilibili account, Douyin account, and WeChat official account. You said before that you know Mr. Bai."
Bai Xingguo is currently very famous among college students in Beijing. I even came to their Polytechnic University to give a lecture. First, the Entrepreneurship Fund holds an Entrepreneurship Competition every year. Young teachers and students from various colleges and universities in Beijing will participate during the summer vacation. The prize money for participating in the competition is very generous. Just any entrepreneurial plan that will not be invested but is rated as an excellent award can get a bonus of 5k. This is quite good. In the summer of 2018, a junior classmate he knew wrote a very rough game program. He won an excellence award and received a 5k bonus.
It is said that Tiangong Games also sent him an offer, inviting him to intern at the company during the summer vacation of his junior year next year, and intends to recruit him to Tiangong Games.
Second, venture funds invest about 100 million yuan in first- and second-prize prizes every year to incubate innovative enterprises. I have been doing this kind of thing for three consecutive years. This year, I heard that I was commended by the city and gave Mr. Bai some honors. He seemed to be one of the top ten outstanding young people.
Shi Yanjun said: "I know him. He is my brother's subordinate. In the second semester of my junior year, someone in the school was spreading rumors that I was being adopted. It was Teacher Bai who took me to the deputy dean, Professor Li, to suppress the rumors. Come down."
"I know about this..., I thought it was nonsense at the time." Lu Guangdong successfully diverted his girlfriend's attention to talk about this topic.
While the two were chatting, Lu Yahua and Xin Meiyu had already changed their clothes and were ready to set off. Lu Yahua's younger brother, Lu Shixin, and his family were stuck in traffic and couldn't come over, so they simply met at the hotel.
Xin Meiyu commanded: "Xiaodong, don't drive your car today. Drive your dad's BMW and take us there."
"Okay, Mom!"
Lu Guangdong's family arrived at the Shijingshan branch of Wanda Hotel a quarter of an hour later and parked their car in the parking lot. The family of three met Lu Shixin's family at the entrance of the hotel. They greeted each other lively, "Uncle", "Auntie", "Uncle, Auntie."
Lu Shixin's wife took Xin Meiyu's hand and walked into the hotel, urging: "Sister-in-law, you really don't want to think about it anymore? Just let these two children get engaged? After all, our Xiaodong has a registered permanent residence in the capital, and he married someone from outside the city. Girl, the conditions are so different! Moreover, we are too polite, so I’m afraid it won’t be easy to get along with each other in the future.”
Xin Meiyu said with a smile: "Our etiquette will be explained to this child when the time comes. It is not a bad thing. China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times. Of course, it will be a little troublesome."
Here, Lu Shixin handed a cigarette to his eldest brother in the hotel lobby. Seeing that his sisters had not come yet, he smiled and said: "Brother, you chose a wife for Xiaodong so early. I heard that your niece is Haizhou, Su Province? I visited that place when traveling in the early years, and the conditions were not very good."
He is a civil servant in the district, a cadre at the department level.
Lu Yahua patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said: "Shixin, don't worry. Xiaodong, a bastard who took advantage of a young girl, must be responsible for this. But the two children have a very good relationship. I don't worry about it either. this."
It was hard for him to tell his brother about Mr. Jing's identity. It would be too frivolous to say this proactively, and people have to discover it themselves. Moreover, although Jing Gao did not warn him, his intention to keep a low profile was still obvious.
The two smoked half a cigarette and went to the "Mountain" banquet hall on the fifth floor. They greeted their in-laws Shi Junzhi, Jing Manni, and Shi Yanjun who had already arrived. Jing Gao and Li Mengwei had also arrived.
"Two in-laws, Mr. Jing, this is my brother Lu Shixin. I took Xiaodong to the door to greet the guests. He will sit with you for a while on my behalf. I apologize for the poor reception." Lu Yahua left his brother to entertain him. Distinguished guests, take your son Lu Guangdong to the door to greet you.
Lu Shixin is of medium height, a little fat, with ordinary appearance, wearing a suit, smiling and shaking hands with Shi Junzhi, "Hello, Brother Shi." When the capital calls you, it is not necessarily an honorific, just a habitual term.
He offered a cigarette, then greeted Jing Manni and said, "Sister-in-law, what do you do?"
"I work as a doctor in a hospital in the city."
"The doctor is great! The harvest is guaranteed despite droughts and floods. He treats illnesses and saves lives. This is both material and spiritual satisfaction." Lu Shixin said with a smile.
He turned his attention to Jing Gao's face again, and was shocked by the charming Li Mengwei's face next to Jing Gao. The dazzling girl smiled and said: "Hello, Mr. Jing. What do you do in the capital? Smoking. ?"
Nowadays, the honorific title in society is Mr. So the young man his eldest brother calls Mr. Jing may not necessarily be a businessman. This young man is concentrating on talking to the stunning beauty next to him. He is so lucky!
Jing Gao smiled and said, "I am a freelancer, and I just mess around every day." He waved his hand and refused Uncle Lu's offer of cigarettes, "There are still women on the table, so we won't smoke."
Lu Shixin looked sharply at the well, smiled and said, "That's okay." He put the cigarette case back. Continue to control the rhythm of the small talk at the table.
