Chapter 70 Attending the Engagement Banquet
A few days after the heavy snow, it was time for Lin Changjian and Tang Qingxue to get engaged.
After getting up, Lu Yan opened her wardrobe, took out a bright red wool coat and straight-leg pants that she had designed and made herself, paired with small leather shoes that cost her fifty yuan, tied her hair into a bun, and revealed her fair neck.
Standing in front of the mirror, Lu Yan wanted to lick her own face.
She is absolutely gorgeous!
Lu Yaguang jumped up and down clapping, "Mom is so beautiful!"
Lu Yaguang's voice drew the attention of others.
When Lu Yan came out of the bedroom, Jin Aiyun and the others stared at her in disbelief.
They all knew that Lu Yan's beauty was direct and needed no adjectives, but she usually dressed too simply. Today's outfit was a refreshing surprise.
The moment Zhou Yanchen caught a glimpse of her, his heart skipped a beat, and an instinctive look of amazement flashed in his eyes as he fixed his gaze on her figure.
But he quickly withdrew his gaze, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart, concealing the light in his eyes, and regaining his usual calm and composure.
Zhou Yanxing and Zhou Nuannuan, however, made no attempt to conceal their expressions.
Zhou Nuannuan, in particular, rushed forward and asked, "Sister Yanyan, your coat is so beautiful! Where did you buy it?"
Sure enough, no matter the era, girls always ask where they bought pretty clothes.
Lu Yan didn't answer her, but instead asked, "You want it?"
Zhou Nuannuan nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice, "I want it, I want it."
"I have another off-white one, which I only wore once. If you don't mind, I'll give it to you."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Nuannuan was stunned. "Sister Yanyan, you're giving me such a nice dress?"
A friend of hers sent her a snow lotus wool coat from the port city through connections. The quality wasn't as good, and the style wasn't as pretty. The main problem was that her relative had been wearing it for two or three years.
Even so, that friend still wore it out to show off, which made everyone extremely envious.
But now Lu Yan is giving it away so easily.
"Sister Yanyan, how much is it? I'll buy it."
This thing is expensive but unavailable; she can't take advantage of it.
Seeing that she didn't mind, Lu Yan went back into the house, brought over the off-white wool coat, and stuffed it into Zhou Nuannuan's hands. "I don't like white. It'll just collect dust if I leave it there. You can take it and wear it."
Jin Aiyun paid her such a high salary, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to ask Zhou Nuannuan for money again.
Zhou Nuannuan touched the fabric and looked at the style. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She immediately took off her coat and put on this coat.
Zhou Nuannuan spun around on the spot, "I love it so much."
Jin Aiyun also came over and touched it, "Xiao Lu, this material feels even better than the snow lotus one."
High-end wool coats like these are simply unavailable in China. Xuelian Factory doesn't sell through retail counters; customers obtain them from the factory using special approval slips from their work units. Only high-ranking officials can afford to buy them.
But now Lu Yan casually took out two items.
This forced her to re-evaluate Lu Yan.
Sensing the implication in Jin Aiyun's words, Lu Yan explained, "This was sent to me from Hong Kong by Sister He Yuejin. I don't usually wear it."
Upon hearing this, Jin Aiyun and the others remembered that He Yuejin's eldest sister had married into a family in Hong Kong, so they did indeed have connections.
Zhou Yanchen frowned, but said nothing.
After breakfast, the group tidied up and prepared to depart for Lin Changjian's engagement banquet.
Jin Aiyun was still a little worried that Zhou Yan would be ridiculed after he left.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but Zhou Jianguo stopped him.
"Yan Chen will have to face these things sooner or later. We can't always be there for him. We should be happy for him that he took this step, instead of questioning him."
Jin Aiyun frowned: "I'm not questioning him, I'm worried."
"Your concerns are seen as distrust by him, and distrust is questioning."
Jin Aiyun fell silent.
Lu Yaguang was not suitable to go with them, so Lu Yan asked Jin Aiyun to take him for a day.
Zhou Yanxing drove the car, with Zhu Jingru sitting in the front and Zhou Yanchen and Lu Yan in the back, as they set off for Lin Changjian's house.
Before setting off, Zhou Yanxing and Lu Yan looked at each other and nodded in tacit agreement.
On the way, the four people had different expressions and were each making their own plans.
When they arrived at Lin Changjian's house, Zhou Yanxing's car was parked casually in front of Lin Changjian's house.
Through the car window, the guests saw Zhou Yanchen, and everyone was shocked.
Lin Changjian had been jealous of Zhou Yanchen since childhood. Later, in order to be on par with Zhou Yanchen, he joined the army through his uncle's connections, but he still couldn't compare to Zhou Yanchen. This was no secret in their circle.
However, when Zhou Yan was diagnosed with low sperm count during a physical examination, he proposed to break off his engagement with Tang Qingxue. But the Tang family was unwilling to sever ties with the Zhou family and insisted on keeping the marriage.
But who knew that Zhou Yanchen would get into trouble again this year.
Now look what's happened! The plane can't fly, and his fiancée is going to marry someone who used to be inferior to him.
Lin Changjian even shamelessly invited them to his engagement party.
"Zhou Yanchen actually came."
After the initial shock came confusion.
"It's obvious that Lin Changjian is deliberately humiliating him, so why did he even come?"
"Could it be that he likes Tang Qingxue, that good-for-nothing who's neither pretty nor smart?"
"You yourself said Tang Qingxue is a good-for-nothing, no wonder Zhou Yanchen would never be interested in her."
"But he hasn't gone out much since he got injured, so I really don't know what he was thinking when he came out this time."
"Maybe it's because of Uncle Lin Changjian."
Lin Changjian's uncle, Lin Qianjin, is in the Air Force combat unit and was recently promoted to brigade commander. Zhou Yanchen is considered one of his soldiers, probably doing so out of respect for Lin Qianjin.
Everyone sighed in disbelief, "I never imagined that someone with a military commander as his father would have to be subservient to others."
"So what if his father is a corps commander? Can the army control the air force? Zhou Yanchen is useless now. If the military really wants him to retire, even his father can't stop him."
This analysis makes sense...
Tang Qingyuan, who had been eagerly waiting outside, quickly locked her gaze on Zhou Yanchen and strode over to him.
"Yan Chen, you've come."
Tang Qingyuan's face was flushed, and her voice was soft and sweet, making everyone's ears melt. She looked just like a little girl who had just seen her beloved man.
Zhou Yanshen kept his eyes straight ahead, not even glancing at her.
Lu Yan raised an eyebrow.
How heartless! She likes it!
Zhou Yanchen remained silent. Tang Qingyuan, thinking he hadn't heard her, called out again, "Yanchen?"
Lu Yan tilted her head, winked at her, and waved to greet her.
"Miss Tang, it's been a long time."
The smile on Tang Qingyuan's face vanished instantly.
Seeing that she had stopped laughing, Lu Yan laughed even harder and deliberately asked, "Miss Tang, can't you hear me?"
Tang Qingyuan was furious. Lu Yan was deliberately provoking her, telling her that Zhou Yanchen hadn't ignored her, but simply didn't want to talk to her!
Tang Qingyuan's chest heaved slightly. She wished she could scratch Lu Yan's face to pieces, but in front of Zhou Yanchen, she had to maintain a gentle image.
