Chapter 184 Extra 2: Although it is a marriage, you are still quite to my liking
This weekend, Rong Huan took Song Ningyan to a banquet.
Only then did she realize what her mother had been busy with during this period.
Just as Song Ningyan was being taken to meet various uncles and aunts, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from not far away: "Xiaoyan?"
She was stunned by the familiar name for a moment, as if she had suddenly returned to Dawei and heard A Qian calling her like that.
The person who came was indeed Li Qingqian, but she was not her former best friend.
Song Ningyan looked up at the second floor and saw the girl waving at her.
She was still as elegant as ever, wearing a royal blue dress, a casual yet decent bun, and not much makeup. Just standing there made Song Ningyan think of her old friend.
Li Qingqian was only thirteen years old when she was sent to the countryside. The girl in front of her was exactly the same as the little girl back then, enlarged in proportion.
With an equally stunning face, Dawei's Li Qingqian had to be humble and was always cold and aloof in front of others, but the one in front of him was flamboyant and bright, trotting towards me with her skirt lifted.
Rong Huan seemed very surprised that this little princess who was spoiled by the Li family seemed to have a good relationship with her own daughter?
Song Ningyan was also very surprised, because Li Qingqian obviously had a bad temper and was even a little spoiled and willful.
But to her surprise, she didn't seem to hate the other person at all. Instead, she liked Li Qingqian very much.
"Today is the engagement party for my brother and future sister-in-law. I'm so glad you can come. Otherwise, I wouldn't know who to talk to."
After hearing these words, Song Ningyan's heart skipped a beat.
In order to hide her uneasiness, she tried to change the subject: "I remember you have a boyfriend, why don't you stay with him?"
Li Qingqian shrugged. "He and I are in a family marriage. In an occasion like this, our parents don't allow us to be too close. After all, we haven't really gotten married yet."
Her words sounded like those of a young lady who grew up in love and was well protected by adults.
Song Ningyan couldn't help but feel happy for her. At least this time, Li Qingqian was the most beloved baby in the family.
Soon, Li Zhen and Shen Changyun went downstairs side by side.
Shen Changyun, who had just been chatting and laughing with Li Zhen, immediately waved to Li Qingqian the moment he saw her.
Li Qingqian also responded with a smile.
Only Song Ningyan didn't dare to look up.
He's getting engaged, that's good.
The girl chosen for him by the Li family must be an outstanding person. He is very lucky this time. Even in a family like this, the marriage is basically similar to that in Dawei, but fortunately he doesn't have to face his twisted self anymore.
Song Ningyan turned her face away. When she was in Dawei, she could guess what Li Zhen was thinking, but she always subconsciously avoided it.
She always thought, how could someone like her, who was not loved by her parents and elder sister, have the confidence to be loved by someone who had nothing to do with her?
Li Qingqian was pulled away to talk to both parents together with Shen Changyun, so Song Ningyan had to sit alone.
Li Zhen obviously noticed her, and seeing that she was alone, he sat down and talked to her: "I was rude last time and didn't formally introduce myself. Hello, my name is Li Zhen."
Song Ningyan's eyes were a little evasive, and she responded in a very low voice: "Hello, my name is Song Ningyan."
After she finished speaking, the two fell into silence again, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
At this moment, a voice rang out in the lobby: "Miss Meng is missing!"
Song Ningyan subconsciously looked at Li Zhen beside her, but found that he was just looking at his watch, "Well, it seems that the marriage today can't be arranged."
"Again?" Song Ningyan was surprised why he looked so calm. "Your fiancée is missing, aren't you going to look for her?"
Li Zhen was startled, and looked back at her with a frown, "What do you mean my fiancée? I'm still single."
"Then..." Song Ningyan suddenly realized something.
She looked at the man who was hurriedly coming down the stairs not far away, and pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly.
Oh, it turns out that Li Xi is engaged.

"Hey, where's the car you said would pick me up? Where is it?"
This was Meng Yanrong's 52nd time to escape from marriage. Both sides' parents tried for five years, using coaxing and deception, and sometimes even forcing her to go to the engagement scene, but she resisted and escaped for five years.
Everyone thought this marriage was a good idea, even her fiancé whom she had never met seemed to think it was a good idea, but Meng Yanrong didn't like it.
She is doing what she likes, has a fairly successful career, and is very busy every day. She really doesn't want anyone to disturb such a fulfilling life.
Since they were determined to force her to marry someone she didn't even know, she might as well make a big deal out of it. She originally thought that everyone would be embarrassed a few more times to see who would dare to force her to get married.
I never thought that after five years, when I was almost numb, these people became more and more courageous.
"Meng Jingcheng, you are becoming more and more lawless now, aren't you? You even dare to lie to your sister!"
In the underground garage, she was squatting on the side of the road in her wedding dress, with her just-taken-off high heels beside her.
Meng Yanrong really didn't understand. It was just an engagement, not a real marriage, so why did she have to dress so complicatedly?
And she discovered that this wedding dress was carefully designed, which almost prevented her from escaping.
"No, sister, you are really good. You can even do such a dirty trick as climbing through the window?"
Meng Jingcheng on the other end of the phone was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped.
"Hey stop talking nonsense, where is the car you said would come to pick me up? I can't even see a tire!"
Meng Jingcheng raised a finger and shook it, "Sorry, I changed my mind and decided to officially switch sides to my brother-in-law from today. So I'm driving the car away, you better go back and get engaged."
"Brother-in-law, you big head ghost! When did I agree?" Hearing him say this, Meng Yanrong's heart sank.
This brother who I have been hurting since childhood... Oh no, the brother who I have loved since childhood, has turned against me.
"You haven't even met your brother-in-law, so how do you know you don't like him? I've checked for you. The new leader of the Li family is a rare talent. Besides, just look at his little sister and you'll know that the Li family will never produce an ugly person."
"Is this the same thing?" Meng Yanrong held her forehead helplessly, "Unless he is so handsome that I can change my mind and get engaged the first time I see him, otherwise I, your sister, can't eat anything!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone in frustration.
She shouldn't have believed the lies told by her husband, Mr. Deng, today. He said that it was an art exhibition that she would definitely be interested in. But when she got there, he had someone knock her out. When she woke up, she found herself wearing a wedding dress and getting engaged.
Fortunately, the little sister of the Li family was a good child who looked spoiled but was soft-hearted. When she heard that she was sad, she helped her open the window to let her get some fresh air.
This gave her a chance to escape.
Meng Yanrong stood up, took a look at the pair of high heels that were in the way, and simply decided not to wear them, and turned around to leave.
But she found that there was a handsome man standing behind her.
She swallowed unconsciously, he's quite handsome...
She was about to walk past the gloomy man in front of her, but he grabbed her arm.
A pleasant voice came from above my head: "So Miss Meng, can my face make you go back and get engaged the first time you see it?"
"If you don't want to, come on up and I'll carry you."
Meng Yanrong's heart skipped a beat.
