After a smile flashed across his face, Song Ziwei immediately put on a serious expression.
"Um, the gown you tried on earlier, it can't be for tomorrow's engagement, right?”
He pretended to ask casually as he got into bed.
Su Yan was happy to see him lying down, so he turned off the bedside lamp.
"Yes, I am."
she answered.
Speaking of that gown, she was extremely unwilling.
Song Ziwei pretended to be relaxed and smiled.
"That's also... It's too revealing."
He regretted it the moment he finished speaking.
Why did he accidentally say what he was thinking?
Su Yanle didn't say anything. Her expression couldn't be seen clearly in the darkness.
"That... It's not that I want to care about you, but there will be a lot of perverted nouveau riche old men at the banquet tomorrow.”
He wanted to hide his embarrassment and hurriedly added another sentence.
Su Yanle finally burst out laughing.
"What can I do? I don't want to wear it either. Auntie Yang helped me choose it.”
She said helplessly.
Song Ziwei did not continue on this topic.
An inexplicable anger rose in his heart. He pulled the blanket and turned over.
They were getting engaged tomorrow, so there was nothing he could say.
The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.
Neither of them spoke.
Song Ziwei's back was facing Su Yanle's bed, but he still felt that she was not asleep.
After a long time, Su Yanle seemed to still be tossing and turning in bed.
"Can't sleep?"
He finally couldn't help but ask.
Su Yanle turned over again and put her hand under the pillow. She nodded in the dark, but suddenly remembered that Song Ziwei couldn't see her in the dark, so she quickly answered.
"Yes, I am." she said.
"Is it annoying?"
Song Ziwei's voice rang out again.
"Yes."
This time, she immediately agreed.
"Me too."
Song Ziwei added.
Su Yanle blinked hard, trying to see Song Ziwei's face in the darkness, but it was futile.
"Why? Do you want to go out for a drink again?”
she said with a smile.
Song Ziwei was slightly stunned and turned around. The two of them lay face to face, but they couldn't see each other clearly.
"Yang Jing told you?"
he asked.
"No, when I came back, I saw the clothes you had changed out of. It smelled very strong.”
she answered.
Song Ziwei nodded, but he felt very silly. How could she see him in the dark?
"Sometimes a drink can solve a lot of problems.”
He hurriedly replied with a smile.
Su Yanle blinked.
"Is that so?" she asked.
Song Ziwei laughed.
"Why? Do you want to try?"
He looked in her direction.
Su Yanle also smiled foolishly.
"Okay, I've never dared to get drunk before. I want to know what it feels like to be drunk.”
She said softly and slowly closed her eyes.
"After the engagement, let's find time to have a drink.”
Song Ziwei said seriously. After saying that, the two of them laughed.
The surroundings returned to silence. He could feel that Su Yanle was no longer moving. Her breathing gradually became calm and even.
She fell asleep.
..........
The next day, Song Ziwei woke up early and yawned as he picked up his phone to check the time.
It was almost seven o'clock.
Thinking that Yang Jing would definitely come in later, he first lifted the mattress and folded it, stuffing it into the closet together with the blanket. Then, she turned around and shook Su Yanle, waking her up.
Su Yanle walked into the bathroom to wash up, then changed her clothes in a daze. She sat down in front of the dressing table and prepared to put on makeup.
Sure enough, Yang Jing opened the door and came in after a series of urgent knocks. Behind her were three people carrying big and small bags. They looked like makeup artists.
She saw Su Yanle sitting in front of the dressing table, ready to make a move.
"Oh my, Yan Le, what day is it today? Are you going to put on your own makeup? I even hired a professional makeup artist.”
Yang Jing walked over with a smile. She held Su Yanle's shoulders and turned her body around.
"Come, you guys come over and start working."
She turned around and called out to the makeup artists behind her.
"Yes."
The three men behind him agreed and walked forward, surrounding Su Yanle in an instant.
Yang Jing watched the three of them busy themselves around Su Yanle and stood at the side with satisfaction.
One of them was standing behind her, doing her hair, one was putting on makeup in front of her, and one was sitting beside her, doing her nails.
Su Yanle was ordered around by them, not daring to move at all.
Song Ziwei looked at Su Yanle, who was sitting like a puppet, and laughed gloatingly.
Yang Jing immediately smiled and glanced at him.
"What are you laughing at? It'll be your turn later."
Yang Jing said mockingly.
Song Ziwei looked at her with a frown. Thinking that he would be played like this later, he couldn't help but have goosebumps.
He quickly turned around and hid in the study.
Song Ziwei changed into a suit in the study. The dark blue suit made him look handsome.
Yang Jing had already called for the fifth time outside the door. He finally opened the door of the study impatiently.
Su Yanle wasn't in the room. She had left at some point.
"Hurry up, it's almost ten."
Yang Jing urged him hard. Song Ziwei had no choice but to sit down and let the women around him play with him.
"Hey, you haven't eaten breakfast yet."
Su Yanle walked in from the living room and handed her a cup of oats.
Song Ziwei took it and did his hair, not daring to look up. He could only raise his eyes with all his might to barely see her face.
They helped her do a complicated and elegant bun. There were many whips on her head, but it did not look messy.
It seemed that no matter how complicated things were, as long as she was involved, it would become simple.
Song Ziwei tried hard to look at her face.
She rarely tied her hair up, at least not in front of him recently.
"You look even more beautiful with your hair tied up like this.”
Song Ziwei thought.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had actually said it.
Su Yanle didn't expect him to praise her like this, and her face turned red.
These words didn't seem to come out of his mouth.
Song Ziwei, who was sitting down, was also extremely frustrated. His eyes instantly drooped, and he had already slapped himself more than a hundred times in his mind.
What was going on with him recently?
...........
It was almost noon when they arrived at the banquet venue.
As it was a western-style banquet, many guests had already arrived. Most of them were middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes, and their wives, who were fat, thin, old, and young, but all wore expensive clothes. At this moment, they were all holding wine glasses and walking slowly around the banquet hall, chatting with each other as if they were originally here to discuss a deal and develop some connections.
Su Yanle and Song Ziwei were instructed by Yang Jing to stand at the door to welcome the guests who were about to enter.
Song Ziwei stood there with a sullen face, looking a little impatient.
However, when a customer came in, he immediately revealed the standard gentle smile of a deputy businessman and chatted with the person enthusiastically.
After the guest entered, his cold expression immediately returned.
Su Yanle looked at her and imagined that when he got old, he would probably become a hypocritical and slippery old chairman. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Song Ziwei glanced at her and asked her what she was laughing about.
"I'm laughing at your hypocrisy."
Su Yanle looked at him and pretended to be serious.
"Then do you want me to treat these people who I'm not familiar with sincerely? With this expression?"
As he spoke, he put on a bitter face that deserved a beating.
Su Yanle laughed.
He felt that Song Ziwei was quite cute like this.
"Le 'er!"
Su Yanle heard a familiar voice and quickly turned around.
As expected, it was his parents.
Father Su and Mother Su were walking over, holding hands. Mother Fu was also here. Su Yanle had instructed her to come, and she was following them with a smile on her face.
"We're getting engaged. We'll really grow up in the future.”
Although it wasn't a wedding, Mother Su was still very excited. It was as if her daughter was going to part with her today.
Father Su quickly patted her to stop her from exaggerating.
Only then did Mother Su smile again.
The two of them chatted with Song Ziwei for a while before walking into the banquet hall.
