Liu Yuanyuan sighed deeply and helplessly, then forced a smile and answered the phone.

Before she could say anything, a familiar, magnetic voice came from the other end of the line: "Yuanyuan, this is Big Brother. Tang Ziyu just called me to ask about the details of you and Meichen. He said that you agreed to tell your father the truth. Is that true?"

Liu Yuanyuan was silent for a moment. She didn't expect Tang Ziyu to call Lu Mingle directly.

Yes, the relationship between the two families has always been good, and because this matter between the two old men is already an open secret between the two families, there is really nothing wrong with asking Lu Mingle directly for the details.

She could only say dryly, "That's right."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone before he spoke again: "What are your plans?"

Liu Yuanyuan suddenly understood what Lu Mingle meant. In her previous life, she would have thought that Lu Mingle said this because he thought he was self-aware.

But now she felt that Lu Mingle meant: You don't want to return to the Lu family, and you deliberately brought Lu Meichen to your parents. What will you do in the future? What are your plans?

This feeling is very strange. Could it be that the friendly smile in the elevator last time gave me this inexplicable feeling?

"I don't have any plans. I'll just follow my own plan step by step. And I believe my parents will still treat me well. So you can rest assured.

By the way, brother, could you please be more simple in your words and not be so emotionless? Otherwise, others won't understand what you mean.

If I were to follow my old personality, your question about your plans would have made me think you agreed with my self-awareness. But now I feel like you actually really care about me.

So which of my interpretations is correct? It’s very confusing.”

Liu Yuanyuan didn't get an immediate response from the other end. Just when Liu Yuanyuan thought Lu Mingle was angry, Lu Mingle's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Okay, I got it." Then he hung up.

This left Liu Yuanyuan speechless.

When Liu Yuanyuan put down the phone and prepared to do another set of papers, she couldn't concentrate at all. She was very nervous, wondering how her father would react if he knew the truth.

But I didn’t expect that Dad didn’t come back for dinner that night. He just called Mom and told her not to wait for him for the dinner.

But after two days of anxiety, she waited for Daitong to come back, but still did not get any response from her father.

So she asked Dai Tong, "What have you been doing these past two days? Did you just go back to your department to get these books?"

Dai Tong said contentedly as he ate the food Liu Yuanyuan prepared for him, "How is that possible? Getting the book is a long journey. I went through customs to make it look like I was returning home."

Liu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up: "So you went to personally persuade Grandpa Tang to give up the idea of ​​recognizing or getting engaged these past two days?"

Liu Yuanyuan's words made Daitong pause for a moment while eating. Then she continued to eat as if nothing had happened, saying, "I have some very unfortunate news for you. This matter is no longer under our control. Even if I refuse, it will be useless. Even if we don't attend the banquet, it won't make any difference."

"What do you mean? Why?" Liu Yuanyuan suddenly jumped up from her chair.

Dai Tong pushed her plate to prevent Liu Yuanyuan from accidentally knocking it over, then licked her paws and said helplessly, "What did you say to my brother and your eldest brother that day? They talked on the phone later, and the elders of the two families had a meal together and decided to get us engaged right away.

I told him we wouldn't be attending your engagement. But my father just said, "You can come if you want." That's the deal. I'm just pretending to run away from home because my persuasion didn't work, and that's why I'm here.

Liu Yuanyuan was stunned, staring in disbelief, saying, "I didn't say anything. We just talked about my dad's investigation into Lu Meichen. We didn't talk about anything else. How did it become a final decision?"

No, I need to call Grandpa Tang and ask my grandfather. ” Liu Yuanyuan took out her phone.

Dai Tong reluctantly stopped him and said, "Are you afraid that they don't know that we are in contact?"

Liu Yuanyuan glared at him and said unhappily, "What should we do then? Don't you have a girl you like? Are you willing to be bound to someone for life?"

Dai Tong opened her mouth, glanced at Liu Yuanyuan, shook her head and said, "I don't have a girl I like yet. And with my personality and the rumors out there, I guess it won't be easy for me to find a girlfriend. That's probably the biggest reason why my grandfather wants to marry you off."

Liu Yuanyuan reached out and patted Dai Tong's head, saying with a smile, "Although I haven't been with you for a long time, I know you're actually different from the rumors. You'll be a good husband. So don't underestimate yourself. I'm optimistic about you."

If calling your grandpa doesn't work, I'll call my grandpa." After saying that, he quickly dialed Mr. Lu's number.

But it was Aunt Wang who answered the phone.

"Yuanyuan, are you looking for Uncle Lu?"

Liu Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment before answering honestly, "That's right."

"Uncle Lu is discussing something with someone else. Are you talking to Uncle Lu about your engagement with the Tang family? Is that boy Tang Ziji with you?" Aunt Wang asked directly without expecting it.

Liu Yuanyuan glanced at Dai Tong and said, "Uh, not really, but I can indeed contact him now."

"That's good. Auntie suggests you accept this matter first. Don't rush to refuse, listen to me first.

The person who came to see Uncle Lu was from the military region, and the topic of discussion should be related to you and Tang Ziji. Obviously, the Tang family was also unaware of Tang Ziji's situation.

So things have become complicated for you two, do you understand?" Aunt Wang said patiently to Liu Yuanyuan.

Liu Yuanyuan was silent for a moment. She guessed the army wanted Grandpa to persuade her. But they didn't know that Grandpa didn't know anything about this matter.

Just when Liu Yuanyuan was silent, there was a sudden bang on the phone, followed by her grandfather's angry voice: "All of you, get out of here with your things.

I was wondering why you guys have been so attentive these past few days. So you're thinking about our baby? I'm telling you, absolutely impossible.

This is the only girl in our Lu family, and you're already coveting her before she's even in your pocket."

Liu Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment before she heard Aunt Wang's voice again: "Yuanyuan, wait a minute, I'll go take a look. I'm hanging up now and will call you back later."

Liu Yuanyuan could only respond blankly with "OK", and after hanging up the phone, she looked at Dai Tong bewilderedly. Dai Tong had obviously heard the voice on the phone as well, and was looking at Liu Yuanyuan with an apologetic expression.
