Chapter 619: The Engagement Scene Officially Begins

Chapter 617 Chapter 619: The Engagement Party Officially Begins

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye

Boss Cutie

"I saw it in the display window earlier. The moment I laid eyes on it, I knew you were meant to be its owner."

Ever since he'd started dating, Jiang Muye had developed a habit.

Whenever he saw something, he'd wonder whether it would suit Leng Ruoli. And if he felt it matched her well, he would buy it without a shred of hesitation and bring it home.

When Leng Ruoli heard Jiang Muye's words, her mood was exceedingly pleasant.

She subconsciously curved her lips.

She was clearly very happy.

Her husband's habits were just like hers.

Though she was the type who preferred collecting all the little things from the time she'd spent together with Jiang Muye. Anything that carried his scent, or that held their shared memories, she wanted to keep.

"Take a look—how do I look?" Jiang Muye began showing off to her.

Leng Ruoli looked at the tall, handsome Jiang Muye before her, and her little face immediately turned bright red. "Very handsome."

"Hahahaha, but of course." Jiang Muye tightened his grip on Leng Ruoli's small hand. "Come on, let's head out. We shouldn't keep them waiting too long."

"Okay." With a trace of shyness, Leng Ruoli let Jiang Muye lead her out.

When the designer saw the two of them emerge grandly from the fitting room, she was a little surprised, but soon felt it was only natural.

After all, the two of them were newlyweds.

"Worthy of my son—so handsome!" Father Jiang praised endlessly.

"I think my daughter's beautiful too!" Ever since Father Leng had started drinking with Father Jiang at the dinner table, the two had been comparing without end.

"My daughter-in-law is beautiful, but my son's not bad either."

"Actually, I think my daughter's far better. So beautiful—with looks like that, she could place even in a Miss World pageant. Back then, I just thought the entertainment industry was too messy, and there was no need for it. After all, my daughter's going to inherit my family business one day."

"Look at my son—he's already inherited the family business, and he's still this handsome. How many men are this handsome? My son holds the title of the Nation's Husband!" Father Jiang fired back, unwilling to yield.

Father Leng kept at it. "So what if he's the Nation's Husband? Wasn't he still conquered by my daughter?"

Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli watched the two old men start bickering, and for a moment they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It was still Mother Jiang who smiled and smoothed things over. "The young couple's married now. The man's handsome, the woman's lovely—that's acknowledged by all. What's there to argue about?"

Even Xiang Shan chimed in. "Childish."

Father Leng said, "How is this childish? I'm fighting for my daughter's standing in the family!"

"Dad, don't worry. Whatever her standing in the family, she'll definitely be the highest, and I'll be the lowest," Jiang Muye promised Father Leng with a smile.

"Really now?" Father Leng eyed Jiang Muye sidelong. "Don't you dare fool me."

"Dad, you already said that if I treat her badly, you'll break my legs. Would I dare treat her badly!"

"Good. Then just keep that firmly in mind." Father Leng had only this one daughter, and treasured her dearly.

"After we're married, in a family of four, my standing will definitely be the lowest." Jiang Muye sighed, then said to Leng Ruoli, "I'm number four."

"Good that you know." Leng Ruoli smiled sweetly.

Jiang Muye subconsciously leaned against the crook of Leng Ruoli's neck. "Then as the highest-ranked in the family, Madam Jiang, I insist on buying it—please protect me well."

Leng Ruoli gently stroked Jiang Muye's handsome face. "Sure, no problem. When the time comes, I'll have the two kids be your backing."

Leng Ruoli's casual remark completely amused Jiang Muye.

Jiang Muye was supposed to be the kids' backing and idol, and now he had the kids protecting him—what kind of behavior was that?

While Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli were flirting, Father Jiang said, "Alright, let's go pick clothes. The engagement banquet's something to take seriously, after all. Ah, it's just that my belly's big and I'm fat—I'm afraid a suit won't fit me."

"It's fine. Just play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses." Jiang Muye said to Father Jiang with a smile, handing him a black suit. "Here, black makes you look slimmer, and this cut won't accentuate your figure. But Dad, what size do you wear?"

"He wears xxxxl," Mother Jiang blurted out without even thinking.

Jiang Muye praised her. "Worthy of an old married couple. Mom, you remember so clearly."

Xiang Shan trembled, watching the sweetness that Father Jiang and Mother Jiang casually revealed, the way the two knew each other inside and out. This was what Xiang Shan yearned for.

Xiang Shan had no idea what size clothes Father Leng wore—after all, she rarely prepared clothes for him.

Now she felt a little ashamed.

"You're still a size s, right?" Father Leng handed Xiang Shan a beige long dress. "This one suits you better. You look good in long dresses."

Xiang Shan did quite value the dress Leng Qihua had picked out—it matched her style well, and she usually liked wearing dresses like this.

Especially since he even knew her size, which moved Xiang Shan a little.

"Do you wear size xxl?" Xiang Shan asked.

"Size l."

Xiang Shan was stunned.

She was completely unaware that Father Leng had gotten so thin.

It seemed she had always neglected Leng Qihua. All these years, Leng Qihua had been silently giving for her.

"Then this size l suits you well. Go try it on." Xiang Shan looked around and picked out a dark gray suit, handing it to Father Leng.

Father Leng didn't put on airs. He subconsciously went to put it on.

Xiang Shan silently memorized Father Leng's size, so she wouldn't forget again in the future.

Father Leng came out wearing the clothes Xiang Shan had chosen, and the effect was quite good. Xiang Shan's eyes lit up when she saw it, and for a moment she truly felt she'd returned to her younger days, to that stirring of first love.

Seeing him, falling in love at first sight, even wanting to give herself to him.

It was just a pity that decades had passed, and she was no longer the silly girl who only knew about love.

Soon, the engagement banquet arrived.

In the dressing room, Leng Ruoli sat in a chair while Mi Lu did her makeup. "With our Ruoli's foundation, she looks good no matter how you do her makeup. Her look's truly versatile—she's gorgeous!"

"Even though Sister-in-law's beautiful, my brother's not bad either. I just saw him outside—so, so handsome!" Jiang Xueli said with a giggle, helping Leng Ruoli with her hairstyle.

After all, Jiang Xueli was a well-known cosplayer, and many of her looks were actually done by herself.

Now she could easily give Leng Ruoli a nice hairstyle, far more reliable than those expensive stylists out there.

Leng Ruoli clutched her chest. "Phew, suddenly so nervous, my heart's pounding again. I keep feeling like something's about to happen."

"Other than something wonderful happening, what else could happen? I guarantee there will be nothing abnormal about it." Jiang Xueli placed her hand on Leng Ruoli's shoulder with a smile.

"Right, nothing will happen." Leng Ruoli rallied her spirits and smiled at the mirror. "Today I'm going to be the most beautiful one."

"But of course—when it comes to beauty, who could beat you!" Mi Lu didn't think Leng Ruoli was being narcissistic. After all, Leng Ruoli really was very beautiful.

Even she, a model, felt she couldn't compare to Leng Ruoli.
