The four of them continued to chat as they ate, time flew by quickly. Ruan Xiaoxiao was talking with Qiao Yi about finding a place to rest for dinner, when Gao Xiang suddenly received a call and went out.
When he returned, he was a little embarrassed and called Ruan Xiaoxiao out.
Qiao Yi saw the two of them leave the private room, and couldn't help but whisper beside Lu Jingyun's ear: "Hubby, Gao Xiang couldn't have not brought enough money, right?"
"You think too much." Lu Jingyun doted on her and patted her forehead. If you don't have money, you can still swipe your card."I think, after a while, we won't have to go out and play. We have to go back by ourselves."
"Oh? What did you guess? " Qiao Yi was very curious.
"I just have a premonition that I'll find out when Ruan Xiaoxiao comes back."
Sure enough, after a short while, Ruan Xiaoxiao had returned, but she returned alone, and her expression was dark and unsightly.
"Xiao-Xiao, what's wrong? What happened? "
"It's fine, Gao Xiang is going back to his mother's house. I'll play with you guys, regardless of him."
"Did you quarrel? Don't waste time over us. If you have anything to do, you should hurry up and leave. We'll just take a taxi back."
"It's fine, there's nothing more important than you." Ruan Xiaoxiao comforted Qiao Yi.
"Xiao-Xiao ..."
"Let's talk about it when we get back. We're tired from the ride, so we should go back early to rest." Lu Jingyun said, he did not let the two women meet in a deadlock.
"Alright, let's go back." Qiao Yi felt that there must be a problem, and it looked very problematic.
After walking out of the private box, Lu Jingyun held Qiao Yi and Ruan Xiaoxiao and quickly walked out of the dining hall, not caring about the gazes of suspicion from the few people who walked out from the second floor.
"Brother Jian, has Young Master Lu returned to the capital yet?"
The two men on the second floor chatted, but the man called Brother Jian shook his head, "I came back a few days ago, but I haven't seen him since. If he doesn't come back, wouldn't he just have to ask Young Master Mo? "
"I just saw a man who looks like the Young Master Lu, but he had a woman by his side, maybe not. But I've never heard of any women in the Young Master Lu."
"It's not that big miss from Shen Family? I think I've met Young Master Lu."
"Chi ..." The man laughed disdainfully, "I guess Young Master Lu doesn't like her. Otherwise, how would that fellow from Mo Family have the heart to find her?"
"True ..."
"Let's go in. I might have seen wrongly."
With that, the two walked inside, completely rejecting the suspicion from before. As for the Young Master Lu that was being discussed, she did not know that she had almost been seen.
Returning back to his living quarters, Qiao Yi immediately asked Ruan Xiaoxiao why they were quarreling, and only then did Qiao Yi understand that it was actually because of him and his wife.
Gao Xiang's mother requested that he and Xiao Xiao go home immediately. Because father Gao used to visit the Gao Family, when he heard that Gao Xiang was going to get engaged, he congratulated Gao Xiang. However, time was short, and the old leader found some time to stay. Gao Xiang picked up the call and was about to bring Xiaoxiao home, but in his heart, Qiao Yi was even more important than the old leader.
As a result, the two of them parted on bad terms. Ruan Xiaoxiao originally wanted to explain to her that she was being kind, but her words of "poor relation" had completely angered Ruan Xiaoxiao and scolded him, so he left with a heavy expression.
After hearing that, Qiao Yi was not as angry as she was. Instead, she comforted Ruan Xiaoxiao.
"Xiao-Xiao, although Gao Xiang is a bit f * * king snobbish, but you have to live with Gao Xiang, you can't argue with him just because of us. You guys got engaged the day after tomorrow, so this is not a good fight."
"He's not some good stuff, he's just a f * * king treasure, whatever his mother says will be the truth."
Ruan Xiaoxiao taunted.
Qiao Yi was speechless, the look in her eyes towards Ruan Xiaoxiao was a rhetorical question: "Then why are you betrothed to him".
"Alright, alright. All of you are tired. Hurry up and rest. You can do whatever you want and just treat it as your home."
Ruan Xiaoxiao returned to her room. Perhaps she was regretting the argument in her heart, or perhaps she was reconsidering whether her decision to get engaged was really correct, and Qiao Yi did not disturb her right now.
Qiao Yi moved to Lu Jingyun's side and sighed a little, before hugging Lu Jingyun with a worried tone.
"Hubby, I really feel that there's something wrong with this Gao Xiang. Are we really going to let Xiaoxiao get engaged to him? "
Lu Jingyun caressed Qiao Yi's back, a cold light flashing across his eyes. 's mother's words had truly angered him.
Although he did not like Ruan Xiaoxiao much, he was Qiao Yi's best and most worried friend. Should he also do something?
"Don't worry, I'm not sure what Ruan Xiaoxiao will do."
"Sigh, I just hope that she won't delay her engagement because of her impulsiveness, but I also don't wish for her to get engaged. Seriously, what a contradiction."
The contradicting Qiao Yi vented out her small and heavy emotions, she rubbed her head hard in Lu Jingyun's embrace, and then rub it again. If she wasn't afraid of disturbing Ruan Xiaoxiao, she really would have screamed.
"Don't even think about it, just rest for now. Maybe you'll wake up tomorrow and all your problems will be solved."
Qiao Yi replied softly, I really hope so.
When he woke up the next day, Qiao Yi seemed to have heard someone speaking outside, and only then did he crawl back up.
Lu Jingyun hugged his head from behind and leaned it against her shoulder. Did you sleep well? "
"Hmm, hubby, Gao Xiang is coming over from outside, right?"
"Probably." Lu Jingyun kissed Qiao Yi on the forehead before completely waking up.
The two of them cleaned up and walked out of the room. Gao Xiang and Ruan Xiaoxiao were seated and discussing something in the living room.

"You're awake? Sorry, I was in a hurry last night and didn't send you back. I brought my breakfast, and after that I'll drive you around the neighborhood."
"You're welcome, Gao Xiang. You guys are busy preparing for the engagement too, so you don't have to accompany us."
Qiao Yi immediately refused courteously, and then looked at Ruan Xiaoxiao's face, as if he was normal.
"You're actually pretty busy. How about this, when we're done with our engagement, Xiaoxiao and I will bring you guys through the entire capital, okay?"
"There's no need to trouble yourself. Just do what you need to do."
secretly glanced at Gao Xiang and Xiao Xiao Xiao, not even focusing on eating, in the end, it was Lu Jingyun who directly pulled her face away, his eyes warning her to eat properly, only then did she listen to him and quickly finish everything.
"Qiao Yi and her husband must sit at the main table. My hometown doesn't have any relatives, Qiao Yi is my only family, I have to sit at the main table. I have no objections to anything else. Tell your mother about it." Ruan Xiaoxiao did not hide anything and said this in front of Qiao Yi.
Hearing that, Qiao Yi and Lu Jingyun looked at each other, and did not say anything.
Gao Xiang seemed to be in a difficult position, and he lowered his voice."Xiao-Xiao, the people at the main table are all leaders and elders. My mom said ..."
"Your mother said, your mother said, is it that if your mother didn't say it, you wouldn't be engaged to me?"
