The next day, Li Jianglin still went to the company with his sons early, but they also came back quite early that afternoon. After returning, he let Wang Ma and send her off to the kitchen to prepare dinner at home.
Li Zhenruo listened to what he asked for as if there would be guests at home tonight.
If it was a guest who Li Jianglin invited to the house for dinner, they would definitely be very familiar with each other. Combined with the purpose of Li Jianglin’s return this time, Li Zhenruo felt that most of the guests invited for this meal were from the Wen family.
Sure enough, at around 6 o’clock in the afternoon, Li Zhentai personally went to pick up Wen Chun and her parents. Li Zhenran and Li Zhenzi also went home for dinner, but they didn’t see Zhu Kai.
Not only Zhu Kai but also his dog was gone.
When Li Jianglin came back in the evening and asked Wang Ma, Wang Ma said that Zhu Kai took Erhuang away and said that he wanted to return and stay at his house.
Li Jianglin didn’t react after hearing this, and just said, “Leave him be.”
Wen Chun was the only child. Her father and Li Jianglin have a very good relationship. When Li Jianglin was in a difficult time, Father Wen helped him a lot without thinking about anything in return. Li Jianglin was a person who remembered old sentiments. Until now, as long as the Wen family has any needs, he would be willing to give without hesitation.
With an old friend as a company, Li Jianglin had a very happy dinner. After drinking a few glasses of white wine, his face looked rosy.
The Wen family only had a daughter, Father Wen drank two glasses of wine and couldn’t help but sighed that the Li family’s liveliness, saying that Li Jianglin’s sons were all people with outstanding talents.
Li Jianglin shook his head with a smile, and said to his three sons, “Uncle Wen praises you so much, and you guys still don’t give Uncle Wen a toast.”
Li Zhentai was the first to pick up the glass, “Uncle Wen, I toast to you.”
Father Wen was also happy to see the marriage between his daughter and the eldest son of the Li family. He heard the words and said, “Hey, you have to make it clear about this glass of wine. Is it uncle Wen or father-in-law?”
Li Jianglin looked at them with a smile.
Li Zhentai then pushed the boat along the river and said, “Then I will toast to my father in law.”
Wen Chun sat beside him with a faint smile on her face the whole time, but not much emotion could be seen.
When all three sons toasted Father Wen, Li Jianglin said, “Old Wen, you should also pay attention to the children’s marriage.”
Father Wen hurriedly said, “Of course, I pay attention. Zhentai and xiao Chun have also been in love for many years, and now their age and feelings are at the appropriate stage of marriage. Xiao Chun’s mother and I have been persuading her to consider it earlier.”
Li Jianglin nodded, his lips were moist and still had wine stains, and said, “So I came back on this trip because I wanted to see them get the wedding done.”
Li Zhenruo had been lying on the windowsill next to the dining room since dinner today. He felt that the scenery from this angle was better than that of Li Zhenran’s lap. He could see Li Zhentai and Wen Chun at a glance, as well as Li Zhenzi’s expression sitting not far from Wen Chun. He could also see Li Jianglin’s expression, who was sitting in the main seat. Only the Wen family and Li Zhenran had their backs to him.
When Li Jianglin said these words, Li Zhenruo noticed that Li Zhenzi had no special reaction, and sometimes he looked a little absent-minded. But this was quite normal, Li Zhenzi was not very comfortable in this kind of situation, and he was easily distracted.
Li Jianglin had already said that he wanted them to have their wedding ceremony, and Li Zhentai naturally didn’t have any bad response. He suddenly turned around and said to Wen Chun, “Xiao Chun, would you like to marry me?”
Wen Chun laughed and said, “What are you talking about, we’ve been engaged for a long time, haven’t we? Just follow Uncle Li’s advice, and get married next month. It’s good.”
Li Jianglin smiled at them with satisfaction.
It was Mother Wen who couldn’t help but say, “Won’t it be too hasty to hold it next month? The banquet and wedding ceremony are not yet prepared.”
Li Jianglin looked at her, “Don’t worry, we will prepare all of this. Xiao Chun only needs to be a beautiful bride. It’s possible that we’ll have to inconvenience the in-laws to choose a good date. The sooner the better.”
Father Wen held his wife’s hand, “That’ll do. Let’s listen to Jianglin.”
Thus they continued to drink and eat.
After the meal, they didn’t know if it was because Li Zhentai was in a good mood or had other thoughts. Anyway, he drank a lot of alcohol and got a little drunk.
He knocked on the table and said how much he had done for Yunlin and how much effort he had put in. It sounded like he was complaining that Li Jianglin didn’t value him enough, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
At this moment, Li Zhenzi’s cell phone rang. He didn’t dare to drink too much alcohol today and was still sober at this time. He apologized and got up to answer the phone while walking outside.
Li Zhenruo looked around and saw that Li Zhenzi went straight up the stairs to the second floor.
Li Zhentai was still talking about something that happened to a previous project and how he managed to clear up all the related things after running around.
Wen Chun’s face was expressionless, and the corners of her mouth fell slightly downward.
Li Jianglin suddenly said, “Zhentai is drunk. Xiao Chun, take him upstairs to rest.”
Wen Chun said yes after hearing this, and wanted to get up to help Li Zhentai.
But Li Zhentai raised his hand and said, “I’m not drunk, I want to talk to Dad for a while longer.”
Wen Chun’s tone was not very good, and she said, “Dad asked you to go upstairs to rest.”
It was not known whether Li Zhentai could hear the meaning behind her words, but he suddenly fell silent and said, “Okay.”
Wen Chun helped him walk towards the stairs.
Li Zhenruo hesitated for a moment, then jumped off the windowsill and followed.
Li Zhentai stumbled along the way. Wen Chun was slender, so it was not easy to hold him steady. Even Li Zhenruo didn’t dare to follow closely, for fear that Li Zhentai would step on him.
With great difficulty, Wen Chun helped Li Zhentai into the room on the second floor and threw him on the bed.
Li Zhenruo stood at the door and looked at them. He saw Li Zhentai reach out and hold Wen Chun’s hand. He yelled, “Xiao Chun.”
Wen Chun reached out and brushed the hair from his forehead, and said, “Take a rest.”
Then Wen Chun helped him take off his shoes, then pulled the quilt over to cover his chest. She stood up and straightened her hair as if planning to go out.
Li Zhenruo took two steps back and suddenly noticed that there was light coming out under the crack of Li Zhenzi’s closed-door next to him. He suddenly thought of something and walked to Li Zhenzi’s door. He straightened up and patted on the door with his front paw.
At this time, even if Wen Chun came out and saw him, she would just think it was a cat scratching the door naughtily.
Not long after, Li Zhenzi opened the door from inside, and when he saw Li Zhenruo scratching his door, he raised his eyebrows a little strangely. However soon, his attention was drawn to Wen Chun who had just come out of Li Zhentai’s room.
When Wen Chun came out, she closed the door of Li Zhentai’s room. As soon as she looked up, she saw Li Zhenzi and stopped.
Li Zhenzi walked out and stood in front of her and said, “Chun jie, no. From now on it’s time to call you sister in law.”
Wen Chun glanced at him and said nothing. She seemed to plan to bypass him and go downstairs directly.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhenzi reached out and grabbed Wen Chun’s wrist at this moment. He turned her around and pressed her against the wall, lowered his head and kissed her.
Li Zhenzi saw Wen Chun struggle, and after a while, he was pushed away. With a bit of fury on her face, she said sullenly “Are you crazy? This is your home! Your brother is in the room!”
Her voice was very low. If Li Zhenruo wasn’t a cat, he probably wouldn’t be able to hear what she was talking about.
Li Zhenzi stretched out his hand and touched Wen Chun’s face, and said, “Do you know that it’s called to be unable to restrain your own emotion?”
Li Zhenruo noticed that Li Zhenzi’s eyes were twinkling with lights. In fact, in his opinion, if Wen Chun didn’t marry Li Zhentai, she might not be able to make Li Zhenzi so excited.
Li Zhenzi just wanted to find excitement from Wen Chun, but he probably didn’t like Wen Chun very much.
As for Wen Chun, Li Zhenruo couldn’t understand it. He always felt that Wen Chun was a smart woman. He didn’t understand why she was willing to be entangled with Li Zhenzi which was likely to bring her endless trouble.
If she liked Li Zhenzi, why not directly reject the marriage with Li Zhentai? But since she agreed to marry Li Zhentai, what was the point of hooking up with Li Zhenzi again for her?
At this moment, Wen Chun obviously knew that it was not appropriate to linger with Li Zhenzi. No matter how sweet Li Zhenzi’s love words were, she didn’t have much expressions on her face. She just pushed Li Zhenzi away, raised her hand and straightened her hair and walked downstairs.
Li Zhenzi stood in the same place as if he was still reminiscing about the kiss just now.
As he saw his appearance, Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but curse cheap person under his breath.
Whether he liked Li Zhentai or not, he despised Li Zhenzi’s behaviour of seducing his sister-in-law.
Li Zhenzi turned his head to see Li Zhenruo. He then remembered and asked him, “Why are you scratching my door? Looking for a fight, huh?”
Li Zhenruo made a pitiful “meow” on purpose, turned around and ran downstairs. He knew that Li Zhenzi would not chase after him, but he still ran all the way to the first floor before he could feel safe.
When he got to the first floor, Li Zhenruo saw that Wen Chun’s mother and daughter had left the dining table and were sitting in the living room chatting with Wang Ma. Since Li Zhentai and Li Zhenzi had both gone upstairs, Li Zhenran, as the host, had to stay in the living room to accompany them. He talked to the mother and daughter; and next to the dining table, only Li Jianglin and Wen Chun’s father were left.
The two of them have stopped drinking but were still talking in a low voice.
Li Zhenruo took two steps closer and heard Father Wen mention his name.
The relationship between Li Jianglin and Li Zhenruo was well concealed as a secret. Father Wen obviously didn’t know the truth. After drinking some wine, he was advising Li Jianglin not to be too sad about Li Zhenruo’s matter.
To be honest, after Li Zhenruo’s accident, Li Jianglin seemed to have aged a lot overnight. To outsiders, this must have been caused by sadness, but Li Zhenruo knew that Li Jianglin was more afraid of being killed. No man would feel at ease after knowing he had been cheated and had raised someone else’s son for decades. He couldn’t get over it, so he was probably angry and embarrassed, but he had to bitterly suppress it.
Just like now, he can only nod his head blankly and say, “I’m fine, I’m already over it.”
Father Wen said, “Look, you still have three sons, one is better than the other, and you are already very happy. Unlike us, xiao Chun is the only one we have and she is a girl. After she gets married, she will become a part of your Li family. It’ll make me and her mother be like a lonely old couple.”
Li Jianglin patted him on the back and said, “What are you talking about, if they get married in the future, Zhentai will become your son. If you let them have two grandchildren early, both our Li family and Wen family will have descendants already.”
When Father Wen heard this, he smiled and shook his head.
The two old people talked for a long time, and then it was very late. Mother Wen urged her husband, and the Wen family left the Li family.
In the days to come, the two families will definitely move around frequently, because they have to discuss the details of the wedding day. Although Li Jianglin wanted the Li family to do it all, he had to ask the woman’s family for advice before making a decision.
The time was a little rushed. Because Li Jianglin felt that Li Zhentai’s character seemed a little half-hearted, so he asked Li Zhenran to help his eldest brother quickly decide what could be decided.
In the evening, Li Zhenruo was still sleeping beside Li Zhenran’s bed.
He suddenly had some urge to tell Li Zhenran about Wen Chun and Li Zhenzi, but he hesitated for a while. In addition, he was not able able to express it, so he finally decided to let it go.
The next morning, Li Zhenruo woke up lying beside Li Zhenran’s pillow. He opened his eyes, but he was too lazy to move.
Li Zhenran was still sleeping beside him, and Li Zhenruo looked at his sleeping face motionlessly.
He didn’t know if it was because of the effect of light or if Li Zhenruo’s gaze was too blinding. Li Zhenran seemed to be waking up, turned over in a daze, and let out a low groan.
In Li Zhenruo’s ears, the deep voice he heard turned out to be extraordinarily sexy. He couldn’t help but feel hot in his nostrils and couldn’t stand the stimulation.
Li Zhenruo was slightly startled by this sudden feeling and suddenly thought that the last time he became a human was when he was in estrus. This time, can he become a human again as long as he was in heat?
Li Zhenruo’s heart was beating fast. He wanted to get into heat, and the most convenient source of stimulation was of course the sleeping man beside him, so he approached carefully, wanted to put his mouth on Li Zhenran’s mouth.
But it didn’t go well, because his mouth was too flat. The result of his efforts was his forehead was on the tip of Li Zhenran’s nose. Then Li Zhenran was wakened up with the cat hair sticking to his face.
He wasn’t awake yet, so he only raised one hand and pressed it on Li Zhenruo.
Li Zhenruo was heavily pressed down by a hand, and before he could react, he was picked up in the next second and thrown under the bed.
Li Zhenran sneezed twice. He was now fully awake, turned over and sat up.
Li Zhenruo, on the other hand, was thrown into the closet and bumped into it before sliding to the floor against the closet. His whole cat was a bit confused.
Li Zhenran sat on the bed, raised one hand and rubbed his itchy nose, and looked at Li Zhenruo blankly.
Li Zhenruo maintained the posture of falling to the ground, but after a while, he became angry and got up, jumped to the window and got out through the half-closed window.
In the morning, Li Zhenran found Li Zhenruo lying on his four legs spread out at the bottom of the drained swimming pool.
Because it has not yet midsummer, the swimming pool at home has not been cleaned and the water was not released, so it has always been dry.
Li Zhenran went down the stairs next to him, walked to Li Zhenruo who was lying in the middle, squatted down and asked him, “Angry?”
Li Zhenruo was too lazy to lift his head.
Li Zhenran grabbed one of his legs and shook it, “Why are you kissing me while I’m sleeping?”
Li Zhenruo was a little embarrassed when he heard his question, but at this time he was unwilling to show weakness and kept his face expressionless and motionless.
Li Zhenran simply sat down beside him, stretched out his hand and rubbed the fur on Li Zhenruo’s back, and said, “I’m not awake yet in the morning. Besides, I can’t do anything to you if you kiss me. “
The words “can’t do anything” were really thought-provoking, and Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but glance at him.
Li Zhenran looked up at the sky and said, “I really don’t want to do anything with a cat.”
So what exactly do you want to do? Li Zhenruo felt that he was about to be unable to hold back, and he was going to explode.
Li Zhenran said, “Too much hair.”
Li Zhenruo turned his head and bit Li Zhenran’s hand. Of course, he bit it lightly without breaking the skin, but sharp teeth always hurt.
Li Zhenran finished babbling, looked down at him, and said, “Let’s go find Luo Fei today.”
Li Zhenruo opened his mouth in surprise.
Notes:
Seeing the comments in JJWXC, I have to agree that Li Zhenruo cat was being treated so badly wtf he was being carried by collar and thrown here and there easily by everyone
