Chapter 2327 - 2331: Which Five Words

Chapter 2327: Chapter 2331: Which Five Words

Leng Family.

The living room downstairs is full of people.

Huangfu Ruo, Tong Ya, and a few other young people... they’re all here, gathered around the coffee table making dumplings, while Leng Lin is playing with the two kids in the backyard.

Luo Xiaoqian sits on the small sofa, wrapping a couple of dumplings, then looks up to glance out the window, and then checks the clock on the wall.

Leng Zimo called yesterday; they were on a direct flight, and by this time, they should be back. Why aren’t they here yet?!

From waking up to now, Luo Xiaoqian has lost count of how many times she’s checked the clock.

Finally unable to bear it, Huangfu Ruo lets out a laugh, "Today, I truly understand what it means to wait with longing, Xiao Qian. You’re practically staring a hole through that window."

Flushing red, Luo Xiaoqian quickly retracts her gaze, "I... I..."

"Xiao Qian, don’t mind her. Let me tell you, you have no idea, when Huangfu Ruo first started dating Qin Lan, that was something else. When Qin Lan went to the grasslands for a shoot, this girl left right after he did, trailing behind. And guess what happened? The film crew’s car broke down, and Qin Lan was delayed by over two hours. This silly girl waited in the snow for two whole hours in a dress, more anxiously than you are right now," Tong Ya laughed, exposing Huangfu Ruo’s past.

"And then what?" Luo Xiaoqian asked curiously.

"Then..." Huangfu Ruo smiled smugly, "I was so cold my legs were stiff. When I saw Qin Lan, I wanted to go meet him, but ended up falling in the snow. At least he had a conscience and rushed over to pick me up. I grabbed his arm and said, ’Qin Lan, you have to take responsibility for me, even if I’m paralyzed, you have to marry me’!"

"Oh, come on!" Tong Ya rolled her eyes, "I remember someone actually said, ’Qin Lan, I’m here to break up with you’!"

"Why?" Luo Xiaoqian asked, puzzled.

Huangfu Ruo put down the dumplings she had wrapped, her tone teasing but with a touch of heartfelt emotion, "At the time, I thought my legs were frostbitten, and how could a cripple like me be worthy of him!"

Luo Xiaoqian paused in her movements, "What about Qin Lan, what did he say?"

"I knew you would ask that." Huangfu Ruo gently dusted the flour off her hands, "At that moment, he just said five words..."

"Don’t leave us hanging, or else Xiao Qian will ask, ’Which five words?’" Tong Ya joked with a smile.

Luo Xiaoqian stuck out her tongue, "But, I really want to know what those five words were."

"He said, ’Let’s get married!’" Huangfu Ruo pursed her lips, disdain in her voice, "I was so frozen out of my mind that I actually agreed, and this jerk didn’t even have a ring prepared and just tricked me."

Though she spoke disdainfully, the sweetness in her tone was evident.

Luo Xiaoqian felt her eyes welling up, "So romantic."

Actually, she had heard these stories from Huangfu Ruo before, but she had already forgotten them.

"Oh, that’s nothing. If you want to talk about the most romantic person in the world, it has to be Leng Zimo after falling for Luo Xiaoqian." Huangfu Ruo looked up, "Xiao Qian, that was a love story for the ages, astounding the heavens and moving the earth!"

"Is it really that exaggerated?" Luo Xiaoqian asked, blushing.

"If you don’t believe me, you can ask our Qin Lan later."

"Ask me what?" Qin Lan entered with a smile.
