under the spotlight

Chapter 202 Invitation
After dinner, Ah Hao, who had had the best rest of the day, volunteered to wash the dishes. Mrs. Huang was about to tease her grandson when the doorbell rang.

Lu Beicen went to open the door, and Chen Ke stood at the door with a strange face. Seeing a few pairs of shoes in the entrance, he didn't want to enter the door at all: "Your house has guests?"

Lu Beicen seemed to have never seen Chen Ke's expression like this before, so he nodded and asked, "Do you have something to do? Come in and talk about it?"

"Uh, I won't go in..."

"Sister, who's here? It's Brother Chen, why are you standing at the door, come in!"

"Ah Hao is back? Why didn't you call me?"

When Chen Ke saw Ah Hao, he seemed to feel a lot more at ease. He stepped through the door and took out his hand from behind. Lu Beicen could clearly see that it was a bright red invitation card.

"Whose invitation, are you here to send me an invitation? You can't be getting married suddenly, right?" Lu Beicen asked jokingly with a smile.

Chen Ke stopped changing his shoes abruptly, and simply put the invitation card into Lu Beicen's hands, and then raised his voice to Ah Hao: "Ah Hao, I won't come in if you have guests at home, you are fine tonight Go to my house to play."

"Okay, Brother Chen, I'll go to your house to find you later..." Before Ah Hao finished speaking, Jiang Zhongze heard the movement and came out of the study, and was about to call Chen Ke in, but Chen Ke saw him, His expression was even more unnatural, and he even waved with a little embarrassment and said, "Ah, Brother Ze is back too, so you are all busy, I will go first!"

Inexplicably, Lu Beicen looked at Chen Ke, who seemed to be fleeing in a panic, and the closed door, and subconsciously lowered his head to open the invitation in his hand. Heh, Li Jiantao and Gu Qianqian have achieved a fairy tale of love. Please invite Ms. Lu Beicen to come to Blue Lake Mida Amusement Park, Romantic Rose Castle...

Cursing his lips, Lu Beicen put the invitation on the cabinet in the entrance at random, turned around, but was embraced by Jiang Zhongze into his arms, Lu Beicen quickly pushed him away, raised his head, the blush on his cheeks revealed her Inner shame.

Jiang Zhongze was in a great mood, his deep eyes gleamed as he looked at Lu Beicen, and his voice was extremely joyful: "When the time comes, let's go together and witness this fairy tale of love."

Lu Beicen glanced at him: "Let's talk about it later, I don't like watching monkey shows very much, and I don't like being treated like a monkey by others."

Jiang Zhongze couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the words, he really loved Lu Beicen's sharpness, even the little sharpness she occasionally showed was so cute.

Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Huang sat in the living room, listening to the movement outside, they exchanged glances, as if something changed after they slept.

Lu Beicen helped Ah Hao clean up the kitchen, and the three juniors accompanied the two old people out of the community slowly, and went for a walk by the lake.

At this time, the promenade by the lake is crowded with people, and the comings and goings are extremely lively. The two old people are very interested in seeing everything, especially the old lady Huang. When passing by the municipal square, she saw a group of people The old ladies gathered together to dance in the square, and stopped and watched for a long time.

After the walk, Lu Beicen bid farewell to the old man at the gate of the villa area, and went home alone. Ah Hao fell asleep during the day, and now went to Chen Ke's house. The two old men looked at Jiang Zhongze with a tired face. Distressed: "You didn't rest in the afternoon, so hurry up and wash up and go to sleep."

Jiang Zhongze was afraid that the two old people would not get used to it when they first arrived, so he smiled and said, "I'm not tired, why don't I have a hand-to-hand chat with my grandfather."

Mr. Jiang waved his hand: "No need, playing chess now, it's even harder to fall asleep later, I'll fall asleep watching TV."

After Jiang Zhongze went back to his room to take a shower, he felt refreshed. He simply started to pack his luggage, but he saw several jewelry boxes in the deepest part of the suitcase. He opened them one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more emotional he felt...

When Lu Beicen got home, he called his parents first, reported the reception process this afternoon, got some instructions, and processed all the ingredients for the next day's breakfast before taking a shower, his hair was still dripping, Just heard the doorbell ring.

As soon as he approached the door, he heard Jiang Zhongze's voice outside the door: "It's me, open the door."

Lu Beicen was a little helpless, this is a child who just tasted the sweetness of sugar and started to eat it, but he can't just shut people out like this, in the middle of the night, don't they still disturb the people!
Opening the door, I saw Jiang Zhongze wearing pajamas and a cardigan outside, standing at the door with bright eyes, Lu Beicen felt his heart tremble again, until he felt the water dripping from his hair on his back, he instinctively brushed his hair back Hold on tight.

"What's the matter? It's so late, can't we talk about it tomorrow?" Lu Beicen said dryly.

"There's something wrong. You just took a shower? I counted the time. You go and dry your hair first."

"Are you going to explain tomorrow's breakfast? I'm ready." Seeing that Jiang Zhongze simply entered the door and walked in, Lu Beicen wanted to send him away as soon as his back was wet with his hair. .

Jiang Zhongze looked at Lu Beicen with burning eyes: "Do you want me to blow your hair?"

Lu Beicen was stunned for a moment, and immediately turned around and walked to the room. Hearing Jiang Zhongze's rather pleasant smile behind him, he blushed again.

Jiang Zhongze actually wanted to follow in, but he moved back after half a step, making a cup of tea, and practicing calligraphy in her study is also a good choice...

When Lu Beicen came out of the room with his hair half-dried, Jiang Zhongze was already familiar with Lu and made tea, waiting for her in the study while writing a copybook.

Lu Beicen wanted to say something at first, but he felt that Jiang Zhongze would get involved in everything he said. In this house, apart from his master bedroom, there was no sign of him anywhere?

Jiang Zhongze raised his head to look at her, and said leisurely: "I'm in such a hurry, my hair hasn't been dried yet, I'm not in a hurry, I'm waiting for you while writing, I enjoy it very much."

"I have something to say, it's really late now, I have to get up early tomorrow, and I have to go to work." Lu Beicen was actually feeling guilty.

"Okay, come over and take a look at what I wrote, does it look a bit better?"

Lu Beicen was a little hesitant, Jiang Zhongze saw her standing at the door and refused to come in, so he smiled lightly and said, "Are you afraid that I will eat you?"

"You are like this, so late, you ran to my place, let the old man know, what should you think?" Lu Beicen hesitated, but still said it.

"The old man can come here without knowing me?" Jiang Zhongze couldn't help teasing Lu Beicen.

"You... I won't talk to you anymore, you can do whatever you want, I'm going to rest..." Lu Beicen turned around and was about to leave, Jiang Zhongze quickly got up and took her hand, then let it flow into his arms, coaxing softly : "Okay, don't be shy anymore, it's just the two of us, I just wanted to talk to you, I came out after the old man rested, they don't know anything, Ah Hao went to Chen Ke's house."

"You also said that it's as if I stole from you..." Lu Beicen said halfway angrily, and suddenly realized that the word was really wrong, so he swallowed it back quickly, almost biting his own tongue.

Jiang Zhongze suppressed his laughter. If he dared to laugh at her again at this time, he would most likely be kicked out of the house by force. He could only comfort him softly: "It's human nature for a lover to want to be alone. It doesn't matter if you know it or not. My grandparents Although it pays attention to the rules, it is not pedantic."

It was so tight, it was the first time that Lu Beicen was surrounded by a strong masculine breath and hot embrace like this, and it took him a long time to get used to it, but Jiang Zhongze reached out and took out something from the pocket of his cardigan, and put it away slightly. Opening the hand of Beichen, he wrapped the string of crystal clear seven-colored gemstones around her wrist, then pulled up that hand, waved it under the light, and nodded with great satisfaction: "Well, Exactly three laps, really nice, do you like it?"

Lu Beicen's eyes turned from his wrist to Jiang Zhongze's shiny face, as if bewitched by his bright eyes and full of enthusiasm, he nodded slightly: "Yes, I like it."

Jiang Zhongze leaned down, took that phrase of liking into his mouth, and hugged the waist that he had grasped so tightly into his arms, it was soft and fragrant, and the pink lips made people really want to stop...

After a long time, when he finally let her go, she came back to her senses, regained a trace of reason, forced herself to stand still, pushed him away, and said softly: "I received the gift, thank you, but it's really late , and talk about other things tomorrow."

Jiang Zhongze retreated behind the desk and sat down, looking at Lu Beicen with burning eyes. Although he really wanted to stick together like that, he finally got her to nod. Here, let's talk, I haven't talked to you for a long time, okay?"

Seeing him sitting behind the table, Lu Beicen felt a little relieved. After all, he couldn't bear to drive him away, so he sat on the rattan chair in the study as usual, and simply found a topic for himself: "The old man Have you arranged your itinerary?"

"Grandfather will go to Qianyang with me and Ah Hao soon, but we are because of the project, and we are afraid that grandma will be bored. Do you have time? Can you accompany grandma around Qianyang? After all, you are comparable to Qianyang. We know each other better."

Lu Beicen shook his head: "I'm not sure. Our channel colleagues are rushing to Qianyang in batches recently. The leader said that before the end of the Qianyang Tourism Conference, the few of us will remain mobile, but once the topic department wants to draw people , I am definitely the first batch to go there."

After hesitating for a while, Lu Beicen said again: "Besides, Qianyang must be overcrowded during the tourism conference. I think that even if Grandma Huang wants to go, she should either go early or wait until the conference is over, otherwise there will be too many people. Walking through the VIP passage, there are huge crowds of people, no matter how good the scenery is, it is not beautiful."

Jiang Zhongze nodded: "Then I'll think about it again, why don't I trouble you to arrange it, I think your idea is very suitable for my grandmother's temper, she doesn't like too many people, and she doesn't like to go out and hug A large group of staff members still don’t like to eat in hotels, so if I can convince her to go back to China this time, I’m almost talking thin-skinned.”

"You lied to me again. If you can persuade your grandmother to go back to China, you must have planned it long ago. I can only try my best to spare time and do my best to entertain guests."

……

Ah Hao and Chen Ke haven't played games together for a long time. The two teamed up with their friends and teamed up to kill an old monster. After relaxing from the tense mood, Chen Ke lost interest and dropped the mouse: "Stop playing, let's Two whole bottles of beer."

Ah Hao stood up and stretched his waist: "Okay, are there any appetizers?"

Chen Ke walked out of the study and said: "There seems to be a box of beef sauce in the refrigerator. By the way, there are some peanuts. What kind of guests came to your house? Is there a guest who hasn't ordered a drink yet?"

As soon as Ah Hao entered Chen Ke's house, he happened to be forming a team to fight monsters, so he didn't have time to chat. He shrugged and said, "It's my grandfather and grandmother."

Chen Ke turned his head, and while taking beer out of the refrigerator, asked: "Come back from abroad?"

"Yes, I just arrived this morning." Ah Hao took the beer and walked into the living room.

"Look, you didn't say it earlier. Your parents came, and I ran away without even saying hello." Chen Ke recalled the scene at that time, and became a little irritable again.

"What did you say you were running? You often come and go with my sister's house. Isn't it wrong? Is there something I don't know?" Ah Hao felt something was wrong at this moment.

Chen Ke opened the seal of the can, and remembered that Li Jiantao went to the big office this afternoon to issue invitations, and even asked him to bring Lu Beicen's invitation to her, and felt very annoyed. The urge to throw it straight back in his face.

After drinking half a bottle of beer in one breath, Chen Ke sighed and said, "Brother Ze, you've been busy for so long, do you have any clues with Xiaobei?"

Ah Hao blinked: "What do you mean Brother Chen, you just say what you have to say, and you are still playing around with me?"

Chen Ke wanted to laugh when he heard Ah Hao's Northeast accent: "Didn't you hang out with a group of Northeast students this time when you go back this time? There's a strong smell of scumbags, and it makes me feel like I'm in a drama."

Ah Hao laughed out loud: "Anyway, if I stay with them for two days, it's easy to go astray. I can't control it myself. Don't laugh at Brother Chen. What's going on?"

"Today Li Jiantao asked me to bring an invitation to your sister. He is going to get married soon, and he told me by name in our big office. Everyone in the office heard it. Then, you know how ugly those words are. .”

Chen Ke drank another half bottle of wine in one breath, saw that A Hao's face also started to turn black, and sighed again: "After Xiaobei went to the terrestrial channel, our side was also affected, anyway, people are like this, If they touched their own interests, they would say all sorts of weird things, no matter how ugly they were, and it was Teacher Li who said a few words about them, so they didn't say anything more ugly."

"What did you say?" Ah Hao asked in a deep voice, his face darkened.

Chen Ke shook his head: "I don't want to say, anyway, you can think of anything you want."

"You asked about Brother Ze and my sister, because you want my sister to take Brother Ze to that President Li's wedding, and justify your name by the way?" Ah Hao changed the subject again.

Chen Ke nodded: "I think this is the best way, otherwise those people will keep talking nonsense."

A Hao thought about Lu Beicen's character, shook his head and said, "I think my sister definitely doesn't bother to do this kind of thing, it's really a bit boring, but I'll ask Brother Ze later, and see what he says."

"How far have they developed?" Chen Ke was very curious.

Ah Hao's face was filled with disbelief: "My sister is a bit awkward sometimes, you know..."

"That's not awkward, let me tell you, your sister is stubborn, tsk tsk, her little temper is so scary, most people can't stand it..."

"Brother Chen, tell the truth, have you ever had a crush on my sister before?"

"Uh, who hasn't been a fool before, and when he realizes it, he realizes that his shoulders are not wide enough. It's over, it's all in the past, and it's a long time ago. Don't tell your sister, or you won't even be able to see your friends." Nothing to do..."
