Chapter 396 Lu Mingzhong's Side Story 6
Lu Yuanqing left satisfied.
Lu Mingzhong and Sheng Youxia exchanged a glance and then smiled.
"You've already met my parents. I wonder when I'll have the honor of meeting yours."
Sheng Youxia paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Anytime is fine!"
It was something she had been eagerly anticipating for a long time.
Lu Mingzhong raised an eyebrow. That's really direct!
Shouldn't a girl politely decline?
But isn't that what he likes about Sheng Youxia?
Lu Mingzhong took a step closer to Sheng Youxia.
The intense pressure made Sheng Youxia subconsciously take a step back, but then, as if remembering something, she stood back and looked at Lu Mingzhong with a smile.
They were evenly matched, neither willing to give in.
Lu Mingzhong was attracted to her and couldn't help but reach out and touch her beautiful, fair face.
May I kiss you?
Sheng Youxia's eyes widened. He was so gentlemanly that she didn't know how to respond.
But what came out of his mouth was: "I've wanted to do this for a long time!"
As soon as Sheng Youxia finished speaking, she leaned her head forward.
Lu Mingzhong smiled slightly as his lips met hers, supporting her head with one hand and holding her waist with the other.
……
The more time Lu Mingzhong spent with Sheng Youxia, the more he liked her.
Even on the day they officially became a couple, he already had the idea of marrying her.
He was very happy that Lu Yuanqing had discovered it.
Because of this incident, he took the opportunity to suggest going to the Sheng family to formally establish their relationship.
After learning of his idea, Sheng Youxia readily agreed and immediately arranged a time.
Lu Yuanqing looked at the room full of gifts with some concern.
"You really don't want me to come along?"
How could we let Lu Mingzhong go alone?
This is a marriage proposal.
"This isn't a marriage proposal," Lu Mingzhong said with a smile as he personally inspected the gifts. "Third Uncle, what's the rush? There will be times when your presence as an elder is needed."
The original intention was simply to visit and meet the person first.
Lu Yuanqing will only be needed when the Sheng family parents are satisfied with him, officially establish their relationship, and the two families meet.
At this point, it's just a simple visit; Lu Yuanqing doesn't need to come along.
Lu Yuanqing sat to the side and said, "I was just worried about you!"
Lu Mingzhong laughed, a little helplessly, "Third Uncle, am I really that much of a worry for you!"
Lu Yuanqing touched his nose, and indeed, there was a bit.
Lu Mingzhong was truly helpless now.
"Third Uncle!!!"
Lu Yuanqing quickly reached out his hand, "Stop! I believe in you! You can do it!"
It's just meeting the parents, there shouldn't be any problem, right?
However, when Lu Mingzhong happily accepted the gifts, Lu Yuanqing's eyes darkened, and he casually asked, "How much do you know about the Sheng family?"
Lu Mingzhong didn't even look up and said, "Xiaxia told me some things. Her mother passed away from illness when she was five years old. Later, her father remarried. Although her stepmother wasn't very gentle... a bit serious, she was still okay to her."
"Oh! Her stepmother also had a son and a daughter. The daughter is about six years younger than her, and the son is about eight years younger!"
This is a basic overview of the Sheng family members.
Lu Yuanqing listened quietly, and felt a little relieved after hearing this.
It seems that Sheng Youxia has told Lu Mingzhong about her family situation.
In fact, Lu Yuanqing didn't know much about the Sheng family.
After all, the Lu family and the Sheng family are not on the same level at all.
Only the Sheng family came to curry favor with Lu Yuanqing; Lu Yuanqing never went out of his way to curry favor with them.
However, after several encounters, Lu Yuanqing did not have a good impression of Sheng's father.
He's not exactly a decent person.
He had only met Sheng Xiaoxiao and Sheng Huabing once or twice, and he had only heard about their existence from Sheng's father.
If Lu Mingzhong and Sheng Youxia hadn't started dating, and Lu Yuanqing hadn't specifically inquired about it, he wouldn't have known that Sheng Youxia was the eldest daughter of the Sheng family.
However, since Sheng Youxia had already told Lu Mingzhong about the Sheng family's situation, there was nothing to worry about.
It's often said that with a stepmother comes a stepfather.
That's the situation with the Sheng family.
Lu Yuanqing looked down on Sheng's father, but he had to admit that both of Sheng's daughters were good people.
Sheng Xiaoxiao is, and so is Sheng Youxia.
As for Sheng Huabing, he hadn't had much contact with him and didn't know the situation.
Lu Mingzhong's girlfriend comes from a somewhat complicated family background.
However, Lu Yuanqing did not have any objection to Sheng Youxia because of this.
Besides, even if they get married, it will be Sheng Youxia marrying into the Lu family, not Lu Mingzhong going to the Sheng family to visit. He won't suffer any losses, so he has even less to worry about.
……
Lu Mingzhong drove to a villa at the address given by Sheng Youxia.
Sheng Youxia was waiting for him at the door early in the morning. When she saw him arrive, she happily ran a few steps forward.
"You've arrived!"
Lu Mingzhong smiled at her and said, "Yeah! You must have been waiting impatiently!"
"No!" Sheng Youxia smiled and said, "Let's go! My dad and aunt are waiting for you at home."
When Sheng's father learned that she was dating Lu Mingzhong's cousin, the chairman of the Lu Group, and that she was about to visit his parents, he was so excited that he had long been preparing to meet Lu Mingzhong.
Lu Mingzhong hugged her and said, "Let's get your things first!"
As soon as the trunk was opened, Sheng Youxia looked at the trunk full of high-end gifts and felt extremely complicated.
"Let's go!"
Both of them were carrying gifts in their hands.
Lu Mingzhong was still a little nervous.
After all, it's meeting the parents of the person you like; how could it not have any impact?
But the more nervous he is, the less you can tell from his expression.
Sheng Youxia also sighed that even if she hadn't joined the Lu family and had only become a university teacher, the Lu family would still be the Lu family, and their aura was in no way inferior.
And so, while secretly nervous, Lu Mingzhong calmly entered the Sheng family villa and met the Sheng family members who were waiting for him.
"Hello Uncle Sheng, hello Aunt Sheng, and hello to my younger brother and sister!"
"Hahaha!!! Your name is Mingzhong, right? Please sit down, please sit down. You're here now, why did you bring so much stuff? I'm so happy you could come..."
Mr. Sheng was so enthusiastic towards Lu Mingzhong that anyone who didn't know better would think Lu Mingzhong was his son.
Sheng Youxia put down the gift in her hand, freeing her hands, and in the instant she lowered her head, she concealed the mockery in her eyes.
While dealing with the warm hospitality of Sheng's father, Lu Mingzhong secretly observed the Sheng family.
When he arrived, Sheng's mother neither disliked him nor welcomed him warmly.
Sheng Xiaoxiao, whom I had met once before, was now sitting properly, looking every bit the part of a well-bred young lady.
But when he saw her, a picture flashed through his mind of her being exposed for frying cow dung.
The younger brother of the Sheng family probably didn't welcome him, as he didn't give him a friendly look and had even snorted at him earlier. Only after being pulled aside by his mother did he sit down properly to eat fruit, completely ignoring him.
Lu Mingzhong looked at Sheng Youxia with heartache.
Sheng Youxia blinked her big eyes. What's wrong?
Lu Mingzhong smiled at her and gently shook his head. It was nothing; he just suddenly felt very sorry for her situation in the Sheng family.
Mr. Sheng's father wasn't as warm towards his daughter as he was towards him.
Sheng's mother ignored everything and completely disregarded Sheng Youxia.
Sheng Xiaoxiao didn't know that wherever her mother was, she was like a statue.
She only called out "sister" once before Sheng Youxia came in.
As for Sheng Xiaodi, he just kept humming like a little pig.
However, regardless of the circumstances, Lu Mingzhong was in a good mood and had a meal at the Sheng family home after being warmly received by Sheng's father before leaving.
Sheng Youxia saw the person off at the door.
Lu Mingzhong's smile was a little too bright, and Sheng Youxia looked at him amusedly, "So happy?"
Lu Mingzhong raised an eyebrow smugly. "Of course."
“My third uncle likes you very much, and naturally I also want to be liked by your elders.”
Even if Sheng's father was satisfied with him, it was mostly because his surname was 'Lu'.
Sheng Youxia could guess what was going on, and her initial joy at Lu Mingzhong's happiness was greatly diminished.
"You're great. Even if they don't like you, it doesn't matter. I like you, that's enough."
Sheng Youxia spoke with great emotion, and Lu Mingzhong's heart softened completely.
He gave the person a good hug before letting go, saying, "I'll be going now. We've arranged for both sets of parents to meet this month, and I'll tell my third uncle when I get home."
I really want to marry her right away.
Sheng Youxia stood there, watching Lu Mingzhong drive away.
I watched the car drive away until it was out of sight.
Then, Sheng Youxia suppressed her softness, her eyes instantly turned sharp, and she turned back into the house with a resolute expression.
She intends to get everything that belongs to her back!
