Chapter 688 All Promise
Xu Zhishan's sudden and enthusiastic invitation surprised everyone present, and Lu Muqi was also stunned for a moment.
After a few seconds, Ying Muyun saw that her silly son was still in a daze and refused to agree to Xu Zhishan, and she became anxious instantly.
She grabbed the hem of her skirt, and her long, muscular legs were exposed.
"Snapped!"
The next moment, she kicked Lu Muqi on the butt and warned him through gritted teeth:
"Shanshan has invited you! Why are you still standing there like an idiot?"
"Hiss!" Lu Muqi was so hurt by the sudden kick that he made a sound.
He was afraid that Ying Muyun would kick him again, so he immediately covered his butt.
Then, while hiding behind his father Lu Qiqi, he explained very quickly:
"I promise, I promise!
And I didn't say I disagreed! Why did you suddenly... kick me...
Sister Yun! Sister Yun! Be mindful of the situation! People will be watching soon! Please give me some face~"
In order to prevent Ying Muyun from using violence against him again, Lu Muqi immediately acted coquettishly towards Ying Muyun and begged for mercy in a low voice.
Lu Qiqi would not stop his wife from teaching their son a lesson. Instead, he would help Ying Muyun.
Moreover, he was also afraid that Ying Muyun would kick him. After all, Ying Muyun's leg skills were very powerful and painful in the army he was in at that time.
So, without even thinking about it, he made way for Ying Muyun to teach Lu Muqi a lesson, but with a hint of jealousy, he reminded:
“You’re still wearing a skirt, so don’t kick me.
Take the ring off your hand, I'll hold it for you while you go and beat him."
Seeing his father quickly move away and instigate his mother to beat him, Lu Muqi suddenly became panicked.
But the more his father Lu Qiqi wanted him to be beaten, the more he hid from Lu Qiqi.
He grabbed Lu Qiqi's suit, as if he was trying to catch a chicken, fearing that he would be caught by the eagle in the next second.
However, Lu Muqi was not a protected person. He was even thinking about how to make the eagle catch the rooster in front of him and not catch him!
At this moment, Ying Muyun looked at Lu Muqi's frightened expression. She put down her hand that was holding the hem of her skirt, snorted coldly, and said unhappily:
"Humph! Since Shanshan, Chuyue and other girls are here, I'll give you some face.
The more Shanshan asks you out, the quicker you should reply if you can agree. When did you become so hesitant?
"Got it~ Sister Yun~"
When Lu Muqi saw that Ying Muyun no longer used force, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the hand that was holding Lu Qiqi to protect him.
On the side, Li Chuyue and Xu Zhishan were seeing Ying Muyun display her skills for the first time, and they all exclaimed in amazement:
"Wow! Godmother, your kick was like a sharp blade being unsheathed with a strong wind.
The movements were lightning fast and powerful, and everything seemed to flow smoothly and effortlessly!"
"That's right! She's just like a heroine, no! She's like the hero in my mind!"
Xia Shumei also smiled and echoed what Li Chuyue and Xu Zhishan said, praising her best friend and saying:
"Mu Yun is wearing a skirt now, so it's difficult to perform.
When I was wearing military uniforms and trousers before, even standing and walking a few steps made me feel particularly majestic and powerful!
Not only is she an exceptional warrior, she's also a military beauty. She's even been chosen to participate in military parades and has appeared on national television numerous times!"
"Wow!"
When Xia Shumei said this, Li Chuyue and Xu Zhishan subconsciously exclaimed again.
When Ying Muyun heard the praise from several people, her face seemed to be full of smiles, and she laughed and replied:
"Hahaha, it's not as amazing as you say~hahaha."
When Lu Muqi heard Li Chuyue, Xu Zhishan and Xia Shumei praising his mother, he seemed to have already gotten used to it.
But he thought he had done nothing wrong and deserved to be beaten by heroes as his enemy, so he grumbled quietly:
"She was a heroine in the army, but now she's clearly a tyrant... a bandit leader who uses violence at every turn..."
Lu Muqi's whispered complaints were not heard by Ying Muyun, who was very happy to be praised, but by Lu Qiqi.
Lu Qiqi glanced at Lu Muqi, and without thinking, he directly fought back on behalf of his wife:
"How could you describe your biological mother as a bandit leader? She has no respect for her parents!"
Lu Qiqi paused for a second, his peripheral vision always keeping an eye on Ying Muyun, and whispered:
“…If you want to say something, say it in your heart, don’t let anyone hear you.
Otherwise, you, this stinky boy, will implicate me again later..."
“…” Lu Muqi looked at his father who was really suppressed by his natural enemy. He rolled his eyes speechlessly and disgustedly.
Finally, he thought of his father who had just encouraged his mother to beat him. With a hint of resentment in his eyes, he whispered:
"The card game I arranged for you earlier is cancelled.
Just play your little intellectual game~"
Hearing this, Lu Qiqi was startled and immediately said in a pleading tone, lowering his voice:
"No! You finally made an appointment for me, I don't want to actually play cards with your mother's group of rich ladies!"
"Hehe! Old Qi, I told you not to betray me~" Lu Muqi laughed a few times.
Li Chuyue and Xu Zhishan as well as Xia Shumei and Ying Muyun were praising each other, while Lu Qiqi and Lu Muqi were in a "father-son fight".
Not far away, Dai Jinyao saw that when Li Chuyue and others were talking to Cheng Kangrui, the atmosphere was obviously somewhat deadlocked.
But then Cheng Kangrui left, and she didn't see any unhappy look on Li Chuyue's face.
In particular, she saw that Li Chuyue and the others were soon talking and laughing, and she instantly felt relieved.
Lidina, who was standing next to Dai Jinyao, noticed that Dai Jinyao was very worried. She comforted her:
“It’s okay, with President Ou here, Chu Yue will be fine.
And didn’t Chu Yue say that you actually helped her? So you don’t have to think too much, everything will be solved.”
"Yeah! I know." Dai Jinyao nodded, her expression becoming less nervous, and replied.
Then, she turned to look at Lidina with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, and continued the previous topic, asking:
“You said that in addition to designing dresses, you also design suits for professional women, right?
Could you design me a few custom suits for work? I'd pay you upfront!
Oh right! Now that I've been promoted to a supervisory position, I'm sure I'll have to attend banquets and important occasions frequently.
If I need it later, can you design a dress for me yourself? I really like the dresses you just showed me!
Lidina had always been dealing with wealthy ladies in the upper class, and the prices of her own designs were also expensive.
But today she made a close friend, Li Chuyue, so Li Chuyue’s friend Dai Jinyao is also her friend.
So, she, who had just had a very happy chat with Dai Jinyao and also liked Dai Jinyao, agreed to everything without thinking:
"No problem! I can design it for you at a discount based on my studio's internal price!"
"That's great! Thank you!" Dai Jinyao immediately expressed her gratitude.
