Since I had quite a fall last night, I didn’t go filming or attend classes today, just rested at home.
Lu Sinian went to his extracurricular class and Lu Beichen went to work, constantly asking her if she would be okay alone at home!
She’s fine if she doesn’t move or sits still, but as soon as she moves slightly or walks, she feels a mix of pain and a dull ache, which is indescribable.
In the afternoon, Lu Beichen got off work early and picked her up to go to the Lu Family’s old residence for dinner.
When getting in the car, her posture was still a bit awkward. Lu Beichen frowned, a mix of pain and helplessness in his eyes, "If you’re still uncomfortable, we can go another day!"
"No need, what if it leaves a bad impression if I cancel last minute?" She looked extremely nervous, "I haven’t been out today and haven’t prepared any gifts for them. They won’t blame me, right?"
Lu Beichen shook his head. In this condition, yet she still worries so much. "Don’t worry, just going is enough. You are the biggest gift!"
The familiar words slightly echoed in Ji Niandong’s mind. She touched the watch on her left wrist, remembering he’d said the same when he gave her the marriage gift!
She remained silent, seemingly feeling a bit more at ease with him around!
It wasn’t until the large black iron gate opened, the car slowly driving in, that her heart jumped into her throat again.
"Young master is back?" The housekeeper Lu walked over respectfully, a hint of a smile on his face.
He walked over directly to open the passenger door. Ji Niandong politely said thank you as she got out of the car, holding onto the door.
Lu Beichen had already taken a few gift boxes from the trunk, and Housekeeper Lu quickly stepped forward to help carry them, hearing Lu Beichen say, "These are the gifts Tongtong personally picked for them!"
Housekeeper Lu gave Ji Niandong a knowing look. The young woman’s gentle demeanor was elegant and poised, "The gifts personally chosen by the young mistress, the master and madam are sure to love them! Quickly come inside!"
Ji Niandong breathed a sigh of relief, unexpectedly touched by how thoughtful he was, even preparing the gifts for meeting the family. Indeed, she wouldn’t even know what to prepare on her own, but this man had considered it all for her.
Sensing her gaze, Lu Beichen simply took her hand and led her step by step into the house.
The Lu Family’s old residence looked as large as a castle, with luxurious but classically charming interior decor, fully showcasing the aura of a prominent family.
Upon entering the main hall, she saw Lu Qingyuan sitting on the sofa. He slightly stood up then sat back down. Beside him, Zhang Huiqin shook her head at him before welcoming them with a bright smile.
The housekeeper Lu also raised his voice, saying, "Master and madam, these are the gifts personally selected by the young mistress for you!"
Ji Niandong wore a knee-length, off-white, elegant dress today, appearing both graceful and lively. Her hair was neatly braided over her left shoulder, with subtle makeup on her face, holding a small bag, and wearing light orange mid-height heels.
The outfit looked simple and elegant, naturally appropriate. Even though she had no notable family background, her beauty and poise were evident.
Zhang Huiqin glanced at the things in Housekeeper Lu’s hands and said, "Isn’t this your father’s favorite wine? And this perfume, is it for me? Tongtong, right? It seems you really put thought into choosing the gifts!"
He truly was attentive and considerate of his family, making it seemingly blissful to be part of his family!
Holding her hand gave her a strong sense of security. Ji Niandong politely replied, "As long as Aunt Hui and dad like them!"
