Chapter 184 Ring
Construction of Yunhe's Jiangda branch has already begun, and Cai Tao goes to check on it from time to couple's original plan to promote the roasted pig's trotter shop was temporarily postponed because Jiang Lianxue had to go to Beijing on a business trip for a few days, and Lu Li also went with her to have some fun.
Moreover, the two of them had to go back to the old house of the Jiang family to find a key.
There are too many houses, and I have to look carefully for the key to open the box.
Fortunately, there is still some time before the wedding, so there is no need to rush to get engaged and I can take my time looking for a ring.
As soon as they came out of the Beijing airport, the biting cold hit them in the face, and Lu Li and Jiang Lianxue couldn't help but wrap their clothes tightly.
The two looked at each other, tacitly said nothing, and got directly into the special car that came to pick them up.
With the help of the warm air in the car, the two of them finally calmed down.
Jiang Lianxue smiled and blinked, "You are from the north, why are you so afraid of the cold?"
“Is it possible that people in Northeast China are more afraid of cold?”
Lu Li reached his hand into Jiang Lianxue's sleeve, looking for her little hand, wanting to hold it for warmth.
Jiang Lianxue smiled and deliberately drew her hand back to avoid him. The two of them were laughing and playing in the back seat of the car.
The Jiang family driver who was driving in front saw this scene from the rearview mirror and looked a little shocked.
I haven't seen you for such a long time. How come you have changed so much?
It was the first time he saw someone playing with Jiang Lianxue like this. This was the future son-in-law of the Jiang family. He was really terrifying.
The driver dropped them off at the entrance of an alley in the capital. The road was too narrow to drive through, so they had to walk the rest of the way.
Pushing open the car door, Jiang Lianxue took a deep breath of the cold air, revealing a nostalgic expression, "It's been a long time since I came back, and you haven't changed much."
"Every time I see a place like this, I feel like time has paused here."
"Want to take a picture?"
"Wait for me to shake someone."
A few minutes later, a boy who was selling cakes on a bicycle took a photo of the two.
As a reward, Lu Li and Jiang Lianxue pushed open the gate of the courtyard carrying two five-jin bags of cake.
The yard is large and very clean. An elegant banyan tree stands in the center of the yard. The rooms surrounding it are decorated with large floor-to-ceiling windows, which are transparent and bright.
Lu Li was attracted by the girl at first sight. He smiled and walked towards the door of the room. "Tell me the price and let me give up."
"Nine figures."
"died."
Lu Li thought about the location of the house and felt that the price seemed very reasonable.
When I walked into the room, it was as warm as spring.
The two of them stood outside the door, took off their shoes, stepped on the soft plush carpet, and both moaned comfortably.
"Floor heating is truly the greatest invention of mankind!"
Although it is cold in the north, there is heating, so living at home is more comfortable.
When having dinner with Jiang Yunfeng last week, he really wanted him to get married to Jiang Lianxue as soon as possible.
The main reason is that he wants to be a grandfather to his eldest grandson.
According to Jiang Yunfeng's idea, they could hold the wedding first and then get the marriage certificate when they are of age.
Jiang Lianxue didn't want a big wedding. She only wanted to invite those people she was very close to. She didn't plan to invite her business friends.
Lu Li had the same idea as her. He didn't really care about the specifications of the wedding. As long as the scene in little Ultraman's dream could be recreated, it would be fine.
The wedding was also a very important item on the wish list. Jiang Lianxue led Lu Li and introduced him to this former home.
This is also Jiang Yunfeng's sad place. Jiang Lianxue's parents spent nearly twenty years of happy time here.
Jiang Yunfeng hasn't dared to step into it for many years, for fear that the scene would bring back sad memories.
Jiang Lianxue doesn't have many memories of this place. She moved to the south when she was very young.
Although she had not lived there for too long, she was very familiar with every corner of this courtyard.
Because she used to often pester Jiang Yunfeng to tell her parents' past love story, she knew everything that had happened in this courtyard during the time when it was suspended.
The two sat at the table where the Jiang couple once had long conversations, and opened an old makeup box, which was filled with neatly folded yellowed letter papers, with a golden key on top.
"This is the key to open the wooden box."
Jiang Lianxue nodded, "That should be it. I remember my father mentioned it. I didn't expect it to be so easy to find."
She took out the wooden box she brought back from Dunhuang from the bag and turned to look at Lu Li with a nervous look.
Lu Li smiled gently, reached out and gently held her hand, and they both inserted the key into the keyhole.
With a click, the small lock on the box fell off.
The two looked at each other, both very surprised.
I didn't expect to open the box so easily without encountering any difficulties.
The two rings were quietly placed in the box, fixed by thin wires. The rings were shining brightly, but it was impossible to tell what material they were made of.
Lu Li curiously reached out and touched it, "It's so cold, is it because the temperature is so low now?"
"I heard from my dad that this metal is very unique. It is usually at a low temperature, but once it touches the skin, it will instantly warm up."
"???"
Lu Li showed a skeptical expression. This is a bit unscientific!
Jiang Lianxue smiled and blinked, motioning for him to give it a try.
The moment your finger touches the ring, you can clearly feel layers of warmth spreading out.
Lu Li's eyes widened, and Jiang Lianxue beside him laughed out loud when she saw his expression.
"Don't act so exaggerated, hahaha!"
Then, she reached out and touched the other ring. "How is it? Does it feel like the magic weapon in the fantasy novels dripping blood to recognize its master?"
"It seems a bit."
The engagement ring was supposed to be very romantic, but the two of them ended up having a lot of fun playing with it.
Although they enjoyed touching each other, both of them tacitly agreed not to put them on because they knew it was not the time to do so.
A few minutes later, Jiang Lianxue closed the wooden box and pushed it towards Lu Li, "Okay~ Now I'll give it to you for safekeeping. Return it to me on the day of the proposal."
"Suddenly, I feel a lot of pressure." Lu Li accepted the wooden box with a smile, "The most important task of this trip has been completed. Next, I should think about your work."
"Alas, I don't know if the animation company is willing to collaborate. I heard that their requirements are very high."
The reason why Lightyear came to Beijing this time was that he wanted to collaborate with a well-known animation company to build momentum for the public beta of the game "Lightyear".
There are many game collaborations, but it has never been seen before that the game is linked as soon as the server is launched.
If we can win this collaboration, it will be a great help to Lightyear's public beta.
Jiang Lianxue has big dreams and so do her expectations for this game.
But the most critical issue at present is whether this well-known domestic animation company likes Da Lailai or not.
