Chapter 222 I also want to take a walk
Following Wenjie's introduction, Leng Yuexin politely greeted the Lu couple.
However, Lu Cheng, who was sitting next to him, had a faint indifference on his handsome face, and even revealed a bit of subtle disdain.
Lu Cheng's parents were completely immersed in satisfaction. Their eyes flashed with high recognition of Leng Yuexin. They exchanged approving smiles from time to time, as if they had foreseen the beautiful picture of life that the two young people would weave together in the future.
At this moment, Wen Shangjun's warm but somewhat serious voice broke the harmony: "Xue'er, after careful consideration, we feel that you and Lu Cheng are really a match made in heaven. You are both excellent and in your youth, so we sincerely hope to promote this beautiful marriage."
When Leng Yuexin heard this, the smile on her face froze slightly. She quickly turned to look at Wenjie. There was a cunning and complacent light in those familiar eyes, and everything was said without words.
She took a deep breath and said in a gentler but firm tone: "Dad, actually I already have a boyfriend, but I have been too busy recently and haven't had time to share it with you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall seemed to be muted, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Leng Yuexin. A subtle sense of tension filled the air.
Wenjie still had that gentle smile on his face, as if everything was within his expectations.
He gently raised his hand, signaling everyone to stay calm, and then slowly said: "Dad, I do know a little about Xueer's friend. He is indeed an excellent person, but he is currently facing some health challenges and is receiving treatment in the hospital. As a family, we naturally hope that Xueer can find someone who can give her stability and happiness."
Leng Yuexin frowned slightly and stated her position firmly: "I understand your concerns, but we can't just look at the surface when it comes to relationships. Besides, I believe in my choice, and I believe that my boyfriend can overcome the difficulties and come back to me."
These words were like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, subtly changing the atmosphere of the entire room.
Lu Cheng's expression was a little complicated. He was silent for a moment, as if he was having a silent battle deep in his heart.
In the end, he just nodded slightly, then turned around and left this living room filled with complex emotions.
The moonlight was like water, pouring down on his lonely figure. He stood outside the gate of the Wen family, looking up at the starry night sky, with indescribable emotions surging in his heart.
"Are you okay?" Leng Yuexin's voice suddenly sounded, with a hint of imperceptible concern and anxiety.
Lu Cheng turned around slowly, with a gentle light in his eyes, and asked softly: "Why did you come out too?"
Leng Yuexin was slightly startled, then a warm smile spread across her face, and she explained, "I am... reminding you that dinner is getting cold."
After hearing this, Lu Cheng couldn't help but raise his lips and reveal a relieved smile: "At a time like this, you can still care so much about the meals at home. This optimism and open-mindedness is really admirable."
Leng Yuexin smiled even more brightly: "Yes, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we must eat well and live well. Marriage is a big thing, but it is not everything in life."
Lu Cheng was deeply moved by her optimistic attitude, and the haze in his heart seemed to be blown away by a breeze.
He nodded and replied softly, "You're right. Let's go. Let's go back and enjoy this dinner and let all the unpleasantness become a thing of the past."
So, the two of them walked side by side, and under the moonlight, their figures gradually blended into the warm lights of the Wen family, as if all the unhappiness had drifted away with the night breeze.
On the table, colorful delicacies are arranged like works of art, and each dish exudes a mouth-watering aroma.
Leng Yuexin seemed to be in her own little world. She was focused on enjoying this rare feast of food and was eating with gusto.
Lu Cheng sat aside, following Leng Yuexin's every move with gentle eyes, and adding her favorite dishes from time to time.
His actions gradually made the atmosphere at the table become relaxed, and the previous feeling of depression was swept away.
As the food gradually dwindled, the conversation and laughter became louder and louder, and the meal came to an end in a warm and pleasant atmosphere.
After the meal, Leng Yue patted her slightly bulging belly with satisfaction, a smile of satisfaction and happiness on her face.
At this time, Lu Cheng smiled and suggested: "As the host today, shouldn't you do your part as a host and walk with me?"
Leng Yuexin smiled slightly, slowly stood up, and responded softly: "Okay, let's go! I also want to take a walk to digest this delicious meal."
So, the two of them strolled leisurely on the quiet street, and the night breeze blew gently, bringing bursts of pleasant coolness.
Lu Cheng finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and broke the silence around him: "Have you and your boyfriend been dating for a long time?"
Leng Yuexin's face flashed with embarrassment when she heard this. She shrugged playfully and said with a smile: "To be honest, I can't remember exactly how long it was. It felt like it was both long and short."
Lu Cheng was amused by her humor, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. He continued to ask: "Then what magic does he have that can make you so infatuated and decide to go on this journey of life with him?"
Leng Yuexin stopped and thought seriously, then slowly said: "He is really good to me and always gives me support and warmth when I need it. Moreover, he respects my thoughts and choices, which makes me feel cherished."
Lu Cheng listened quietly. He raised his eyebrows slightly, trying to hide his inner fluctuations with a relaxed tone: "It sounds simple. Aren't there boys like this everywhere on the street? You can meet several of them just by turning around, right?"
Leng Yuexin turned her head to look at him, a faint smile on her lips, her eyes flashing with cunning and curiosity: "Why, do you think love should be complicated to be considered true love?"
Lu Cheng shook his head slightly, with a bit of bitterness in his smile: "Okay! I am narrow-minded. Then, I guess he must be a handsome guy?"
Leng Yuexin chuckled and nodded in agreement: "Well, you are right, he is indeed quite handsome, but that is not all."
Lu Cheng's gaze lingered on her face for a moment, and he said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "It seems that you are not very resistant to appearance."
Leng Yuexin smiled calmly and responded frankly and sincerely: "Yes! Who doesn't like beautiful things? But what really touched my heart is the mutual understanding and support."
