Chapter 231 Support
Lu Xue said with a smile, "People only face the choice of who to save between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law after marriage. Why do I have to face such a crazy question before I even enter the grave of marriage?!"
Gu Mingyue suppressed her laughter and started to pester him, "I don't care. You can do whatever you want. Who told you not to report it? You only told me when you were getting married. You just don't care about me and I'm not in your heart!"
Lu Xue knew this guy's rogue nature too well. Seeing that she couldn't deal with him, she suddenly had an idea and said without any psychological burden, "Why don't you ask Brother Shen in person? Stop torturing me."
"Oh my, it's different when you have a partner. Honest people have learned to find someone to take the blame." Gu Mingyue joked, but she was really happy in her heart.
She could see that Lu Xue's eyes were filled with happiness at the moment. She was like a budding rose in full bloom, radiant and charming. It really was true that love could really give birth to new flesh and blood.
Gu Mingyue was always worried that she was alone, but she couldn't stay with her in the town forever, so she felt very worried.
Now she has her other half and is about to start a happy life. I am so happy for her.
However, before that, she still has to check it out.
If it was Xu Xiwen, Gu Mingyue would not be worried at all. Not to mention that the other party had the character of not being at a disadvantage, but also no one in the Xu family was easy to fool.
Lu Xue is different. It’s better for her to have no relatives at all. Even though she looks cold, she is actually very soft-hearted.
In addition, she was also worried that Shen Zhiqiang's family background was so good that there would be a bloody family ethics drama, with conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law after marriage and a mess...
When he thought of that situation, Gu Mingyue couldn't help but clench his fists.
Only then did he decide to meet in person and let the other party know that Lu Xue had someone backing her up, and that person was her family.
Shen Zhiqiang is nearly 1.9 meters tall, with a crew cut and bronze skin. He is not particularly strong, but the bulging muscles through his clothes show his strength that cannot be underestimated.
There was a scar between his eyebrows, which made him look particularly fierce. Even when he sat there without saying a word, people walking past him would obviously unconsciously slow down their steps and hold their breath.
It feels like the state-owned restaurants are much quieter today...
Seeing Lu Xue and Gu Mingyue, Shen Zhiqiang was the first to stand up to greet them.
"Brother Shen!"
"Little Snow."
The man's smile was like melting ice and snow, and Gu Mingyue had a good first impression of him.
It's not about looks, it's about attitude.
It's not that she is narcissistic. It's no exaggeration to say that her skin is as smooth as cream. Just standing there is a sight to behold. Many people nearby can't help but look back.
But Shen Zhiqiang only looked at her when the two parties were introduced to each other.
The rest of the time, all his attention was on Lu Xue. For this, Gu Mingyue gave him a passing score.
Shen Zhiqiang was well aware of how much his wife valued her friend. To be honest, he was a little jealous...
But he also learned from Xiaoxue that their friendship was unshakable and could be said to be one of sharing weal and woe. He could only regret not meeting her earlier, because then he might have been more important to his fiancée than her friends.
Although he felt jealous, he politely said, "Comrade Gu, I heard that you like meat and dumplings, so I ordered some of both, and also added a portion of crucian carp tofu soup and pork ribs and potatoes. See if there is anything else you want to eat, and I'll have someone make it."
"No, these are enough. Sorry for the expense." Gu Mingyue said politely.
"It's nothing. Xiaoxue's friends are my friends. Xiaoxue said that you helped her a lot. You should give us a chance to express our gratitude."
Gu Mingyue replied pointedly, "It's not worth mentioning. We help each other, but I can be regarded as Xiaoxue's family. If there is anything in the future, she doesn't need to say anything. If anyone makes her feel wronged, I will not be a pushover. I believe that Captain Shen has been in Qingshan for so long, and he should have heard of some of my achievements. I dare not say that I have won every battle, but I have never met an opponent. By the way, speaking of this, I would like to ask, where does Captain Shen plan to settle in the future?"
Shen Zhiqiang heard the other party's warning, but he didn't feel offended. He understood that the other party was supporting his fiancée. Instead, he felt relieved for Xiaoxue, so he told her the truth, "I guess I'll be in Qingshan for the next ten years. I can't say for sure if I'll be further away."
"So, do your parents support or oppose your marriage?" Gu Mingyue took the opportunity to ask.
"Agree."
"Is it a happy approval or a tacit agreement? To be honest, I have some connections with Chief Shen, so I naturally know your family background. So, if you are so presumptuous, may I ask if your parents really have no complaints about our Xiaoxue?"
Lu Xue couldn't ask these questions, not with her personality.
Gu Mingyue came over today and decided to let her be the bad guy.
She had to make everything clear in advance. To put it bluntly, even if problems did arise in the future, she could use this to occupy the moral high ground and criticize, and she would have the confidence to silence Shen Zhiqiang and even the Shen family.
"It would be a lie to say I have no objection, but don't worry, I can handle it. I promised Xiaoxue that I would not let her suffer any injustice, and I will definitely keep my word. I know what you are worried about, and I swear on my honor as a soldier that I will love her for the rest of my life, never have two hearts, never mistreat her, and never betray her."
After hearing this, Gu Mingyue smiled and said in a gentle tone, "I hope you can always remember what I said today. Well, let's eat. The food will be inedible if it gets cold. It's my fault for talking endlessly. Captain Shen won't find me annoying, will he?"
"How could that be!" Shen Zhiqiang replied quickly.
In fact, he secretly complained in his heart that this girl must be a guest of honor in Sichuan and Chongqing. The speed of changing her face is too fast. Just now she was staring at him like a hawk, but now she has become friendly and nonchalant, as if the person she was confronting before was not her...
Just when he thought he could finally eat in peace, he heard the person opposite him continue to say as soon as he picked up the chopsticks, "I've always heard that mothers-in-law don't like their daughters-in-law and try all kinds of ways to get them to do something. Captain Shen's family must be a highly educated family. Is it possible that something like this could happen in your family?"
"No, I promise." Shen Zhiqiang affirmed, "My parents are usually very busy with work. It is possible that they will not pay enough attention to us in the future. It will only be because they don't have time. They will never do anything that violates their principles and bottom line."
"Captain Shen, you don't have to be so serious. Just treat it as a normal meal and chat. Our Xiaoxue is a college student, much younger than you, has a good job, looks good, and has a good personality. Although there are not many people on her side of the family, with me, it's like owning the entire Gujia Village. I am absolutely confident, and it's hard to find someone like me even with a lantern. Do you agree with this?"
"That must be it. I also always feel that I am very lucky. Having said that, I have to offer you a glass of tea instead of wine. If you hadn't helped Xiaoxue arrange a return to Qingshan, we wouldn't have met in this vast crowd. Thank you so much." He raised the water glass in front of him.
