Chapter 208 Giving out red envelopes
Xu Fang finally agreed after hearing that, but she kept thinking that she should ask Xu Youyou before deciding whether to do it or not.
Xu Youyou, who was walking in the front, tilted her head slightly to look at Lu Jingyao. She saw the umbrella in Lu Jingyao's hand, which was now firmly held above her head. Whether she walked fast or slow, the umbrella followed her closely to ensure that she would not be wetted by the snowflakes. Instead, Lu Jingyao was covered in snow.
She suddenly remembered a sentence she saw when she was young: Love is a tilted umbrella.
Lu Jingyao wasn't good at interacting with girls, so he just said, "The roads are slippery on snowy days, so walk more steadily."
Xu Youyou responded softly.
Seeing that she seemed to be in a bad mood, Lu Jingyao couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He couldn't help but think of what Assistant Liu said every day, saying that girls nowadays don't like men who have too much daddy vibe.
He couldn't help but reflect on himself. Was it because he spoke too much like a father just now that made Xu Youyou unhappy?
"I'm worried about you, and I don't mean to lecture you." Lu Jingyao helped explain.
Xu Youyou tilted her head and glanced at him, not missing the flash of panic in his eyes.
In a flash, Xu Youyou asked, "You seem to be particularly concerned about my emotions?"
Since Lu Jingyao confessed his feelings, he seemed to have become much more open and frank. He said directly: "I care about you, so I care about your emotions."
Xu Youyou felt emotional in her heart that Lu Jingyao, who seemed to be extremely chauvinistic at first sight, could actually become so tactful.
Because of her experiences in her previous life, she was always extremely cautious in relationships, fearing that she would be like in her previous life, investing all her love just to get family love in return, but ending up dead in the wilderness.
At this moment, she saw that Lu Jingyao was so arrogant that he wanted to humble himself to the dust. She couldn't help but feel an impulse in her heart. No matter what Lu Jingyao would become in the future, at least at this moment his sincerity was not fake.
Do you like Lu Jingyao?
Xu Youyou asked herself in her heart, how could she really be indifferent when being held in the palm of the hand by such a high-quality man every day?
She should have overcome obstacles and lived her life to the fullest. She shouldn't have hesitated because of the pain she suffered in her previous life.
"Lu Jingyao, maybe we can give it a try." Xu Youyou took the initiative to say.
Lu Jingyao's hand holding the umbrella suddenly tightened. He turned his head and looked at Xu Youyou, and his eyes instantly burst into great joy.
"I don't care if your throat is blocked by the snow or you are just confused for a moment, I heard it and it counts." Lu Jingyao's speech speed has never been as fast as this time.
Xu Youyou couldn't help but laugh, raised her chin slightly, and said, "I'm just giving you a chance. If you don't perform well, I'll always find someone else."
Lu Jingyao was an extremely confident person. Upon hearing this, he immediately said, "I will never let you have such an idea."
Compared with Qing Yatou’s New Year’s Eve dinner, the orphanage’s New Year’s Eve dinner was naturally much more lively.
The orphanage's restaurant is not small to begin with, and with everyone present today, it's naturally very lively.
Before Xu Youyou walked in, she could hear children's laughter coming from afar.
"Is this a performance?" Xu Youyou asked.
Lu Jingyao shook his head: "The children did prepare a performance, but it will be after the New Year's Eve dinner. They like you the most, so they won't start the performance earlier if you don't come."
Xu Youyou felt warm in her heart. It was her own fault for going to find Qing Yatou temporarily, but she didn't expect that others were willing to tolerate her.
"It's snowing so hard outside, come in quickly, we're waiting for you two!" Mother Lu saw the two of them coming side by side from afar, and her eyes were full of smiles.
Lu Jingyao directly took Xu Youyou's hand and walked into the restaurant.
Mother Lu immediately glared at him, as if she was scolding her own son for being a pervert.
However, Mr. Lu gave his son an approving look and stopped his wife at the same time.
"Don't you know what kind of person our son is? Xiao Xu didn't refuse. Maybe the two children have already talked about it privately. You can just wait to marry a new wife." Father Lu said.
Mother Lu was stunned for a moment, then immediately beamed with joy, clapping her hands and saying, "Maybe these two kids really did kiss behind our backs."
Father Lu looked at his wife with a strange smile on her face, and couldn't help shaking his head. He lowered his voice and said, "I just don't know when I can marry her so I can have a grandson soon."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Although our son is old, Xiao Xu is still young. If you dare to urge him to get married and scare my daughter-in-law away, I will never forgive you!" Mother Lu warned her husband in advance.
Father Lu immediately waved his hand and said, "Look at you, you're putting the blame on me again. I'm not the type of person to rush a girl. Go back and tell your parents too, and tell them not to worry too much."
Mother Lu stopped talking when she thought of how anxious her parents were about Lu Jingyao's marriage.
At this time, as people gathered in the restaurant, Dean He's face broke into a big smile. For her, this year is the best year. Now the facilities are complete and the children are no longer short of food and clothing. Compared with the children outside, at least the gap in material conditions will not be too big.
Dean He also understood the children's excitement about the delicious food on the table. After saying a few words of blessing, he announced that the meal would begin.
The Spring Festival Gala was playing on the new big TV in the restaurant, steam was rising from the pots on the table, and everyone was eating with relish. It was a completely harmonious and joyful scene.
Mother Lu sat very close to Xu Youyou and kept urging her, "I made this dish myself, specially for you. Youyou, you must try it."
Father Lu pointed to another dish on the table and said, "Jingyao said you like spicy food and strong flavors. Try the boiled pork slices I made. Is it tasty enough?"
Xu Youyou tasted them one by one without any delay, and then said with a smile: "Uncle and aunt, these dishes are very delicious. I'm sorry for your trouble."
You can tell whether a dish is made with care just by tasting it. Xu Youyou envied Lu Jingyao more and more. He really had a pair of particularly good parents.
Lu Jingyao was standing by, holding a pair of serving chopsticks in his hand, and from time to time he would pick up some food and put it into Xu Youyou's bowl. Xu Youyou was very straightforward when she was eating, and he just paid a little attention and remembered Xu Youyou's preferences. He picked up food for her all night and didn't make any mistakes.
Dean He naturally noticed the interactions between the two young people and realized that Xu Youyou had figured it out. A smile almost broke out on his face.
Not long after dinner, some children volunteered to go on stage to perform. Although the children's performances were immature, everyone present was very supportive. For a while, the laughter and cheers almost spread three miles away.
It was only nine o'clock in the evening, but many children started yawning.
The adults present had no intention of letting the children stay up all night to celebrate the New Year. Lu's parents felt that the time was right, and someone immediately brought over a large basket of red envelopes.
"Everything is fine. Take the red envelope and wish you a smooth and healthy year ahead." Mother Lu said with a smile.
