Lin Wan shot a glare at him. "What do you mean? You knew Uncle and Aunt were coming too?!"
Lu Zhihang quickly returned a soothing look. "I didn't know. But isn't it common sense that they'd come with Lu Yao?"
What the hell kind of common sense is that? Is that your family's common sense?!
Lin Wan was a bit frantic and quickly served tea and water to the two elders.
Mrs. Lu always regarded Lin Wan as her own daughter, almost like she wanted to hold her in her mouth and cherish her in her hands. So after taking the water from Lin Wan, she quickly pulled the girl to sit beside her.
"Wanwan," Mrs. Lu said earnestly, patting Lin Wan's hand on the back, with a very kind look in her eyes. "You've been dating our naughty boy for so long. Shouldn't you consider what comes next?"
Lin Wan looked blank.
What comes next? What does that mean?
The next second, Lin Wan remembered Lu Zhihang's words about "preparing for the wedding". Her face immediately flushed red.
"Wanwan, why aren't you saying anything? Did our naughty boy bully you? Tell Mom, and Mom will get justice for you!" Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Wan lovingly. When she had a free moment, she shot a glare at her own son, Lu Zhihang.
One would think Lin Wan was the biological child and Lu Zhihang was the son - in - law who married into the family.
It was simply inhumane.
Lu Yao was sitting beside them, holding a cup and giggling. From time to time, she cast sympathetic yet gloating looks at her third cousin, enjoying the show.
Lu Zhihang: "..."
"Mom, what you said. I wish I could hold Wanwan in my palm. How could I ever bully her? And why are you in such a hurry? She's already accepted the ring. How could things change?!" Lu Zhihang tried to give some remote support to the shy Wanwan. However, the next second after he said that, he was glared at by his mother.
"What do you know? Even married couples can get divorced. Just because your proposal was successful doesn't mean there's no risk." Mrs. Lu glared at Lu Zhihang, leaving him speechless. Then the next second, she patted Lin Wan's hand to comfort her. "Wanwan, Mom didn't mean it like that. Mom knows you really like Zhihang. But this wedding, after all, is very important..."
Lu Zhihang cast a pleading look at his father.
However, Mr. Lu calmly looked out of the window, looking like he knew nothing, saw nothing, and could do nothing.
Lu Zhihang was almost so angry that he died on the spot. Finally, he had no choice but to go back to the kitchen helplessly.
Lin Wan's cheeks were red the whole time, and her expression was blank. Finally, after Mrs. Lu said, "The wedding doesn't have to be in a hurry, but you should get the marriage certificate first. Otherwise, Mom feels sorry for you, Wanwan." Lin Wan's defenses finally collapsed. She said expressionlessly, "Auntie, I don't know how to arrange these things."
Seeing there was a chance, Mrs. Lu immediately made a decision. "That's no problem. I'll arrange the wedding. I'll surely make it grand and magnificent for you two!"
Lin Wan had no choice but to nod to show that she understood.
"That's settled then. In a few days, after I've found the right people, I'll come and discuss it with you." Mrs. Lu nodded in satisfaction and then changed the topic.
...
So in the following period, Lin Wan first felt the earnest care from Mrs. Lu regarding the wedding.
This care included but was not limited to the wedding venue, the wedding dress, the wedding format, and the guests to be invited, etc. Lin Wan first felt that getting married was an extremely painful thing. She even had the thought of "maybe I should just run away from the wedding" before it even reached the last moment.
However, this thought was shattered within a day under Lu Zhihang's sharp eyes.
"I don't want to go!" Lin Wan struggled on the bed at last, looking extremely painful, as if she was about to tear the bed sheet in half in the next second to show her determination.
"No, baby. If you don't go, my mom will kill me." Lu Zhihang said with a numb expression.
Lin Wan: "..."
What a poor biological son!
...
Mrs. Lu obviously wanted to hold a sensational wedding for her youngest son.
For this reason, Mrs. Lu clearly stated, "When you two get married, I'll get ninety - nine Ferraris to drive around the whole city of S!"
This bold statement still made Lin Wan shudder. Fortunately, Lu Zhihang was also very shocked. After the shock, he successfully stopped his mother's crazy idea and said that his wedding would be held abroad.
Hearing this, Mrs. Lu didn't object. Instead, she started to carefully plan the wedding process for the two of them. She was shouting on the phone, "I've made an appointment with a designer. You two come back to the villa tomorrow morning. I'll let the designer make wedding dresses for you, and there are also the wine, the flowers, the venue, and the jewelry..."
Hearing this, Lu Zhihang was about to say something, but was interrupted by his mother. "Lu Zhihang, don't say a word. Do you think I don't know what you've done behind my back? I'm telling you, it's not enough. Do you understand how many things need to be considered in a wedding?!"
Lu Zhihang immediately admitted his mistake meekly. "I don't understand. I don't understand. I'll leave everything to you. We'll surely be back on time tomorrow!"
The memory ended. Finally, Lin Wan still struggled to get out of bed. After a slow wash - up, she went to the villa with Lu Zhihang.
At this time, Lin Wan originally thought that when Mrs. Lu said she'd invited a designer to make wedding dresses, it meant they would do it at the villa. But she never expected that going to the villa was just the beginning. Next, they had to drive around all the top - level wedding dress customization stores in the whole city of S.
"This one is not nice. It's too shiny. There are too many sequins on it. A wedding dress should be white, pure white. Please take this blue one away. We're not here to take photos. We're here to look at clothes."
Lin Wan looked at the design draft spread out in front of her expressionlessly, feeling a bit complicated.
Lu Zhihang was sitting beside her, also looking at those colorful clothes with a complicated expression, looking a bit spaced - out.
"Wanwan, what do you think of this one?" Suddenly, Mrs. Lu asked, pointing to a mermaid - style dress in the book.
Lin Wan twitched the corner of her mouth. After a while, she said, "Er, A, Auntie, if you think it's okay, it's okay. I don't mind what I wear."
"That won't do. The clothes must be ones you like. What do you think of this one?" Mrs. Lu said seriously and then turned a page, pointing to a dress with a cape on it.
Lin Wan "It's, it's quite nice."
Mrs. Lu nodded, picked up a pen and made a tick on the paper, then continued to turn to the next page.
Lin Wan: "..." She cast a pleading look at Lu Zhihang, with a resentful expression.
Lu Zhihang shrugged, indicating that he was also very helpless.
Finally, to Lin Wan's surprise, Mrs. Lu actually confirmed a full ten wedding dresses for her back and forth. Even if she changed one for each small event during the wedding, that would be enough!
