Chapter 35: Gentleman Lu Feng...

In the evening.

The whole family eagerly waited for the elderly couple to arrive in the living room. When they came, everyone stood up to observe how they had dressed. They stood frozen at the beauty of the couple; silence invaded the room. They broke into a round of applause and smiled as they approached.

The older man was wearing a black suit with a red shirt, complete with a black bow and the handkerchief tucked in his pocket. Grandma Zhao Shuang was wearing a full sleeve red dress that reached the floor with flat booties that were adorned with diamonds. It fit loosely over her curves, perfect for someone her age. Her accessories matched well, making her look beautiful.

"You look amazing," Lu Zhilan gasped. "Made for each other," she commented, unable to contain her excitement.

"We're covered with the love you showered. Of course, we look that way," Lu Huan said. These words were spoken as everything the couple wore that day was prepared by the others. Being rich, all the family members had pitched in and gifted them things that they could wear at the party.

While everyone admired the couple, Lu Feng came down with a medium-sized box in his hand. He too was wearing a black suit; just his top buttons were somewhat undone. He couldn't bear to wear a tie or bow, so he went without. Everyone was rather surprised to see him dressed up.

Lu Chen: 'I almost forgot how he actually looks.'

Su Hui: 'My handsome son.'

Others: 'Does he have a fever?'

When Lu Bao saw Lu Feng coming downstairs, she too was surprised to see her brother and couldn't hold her tongue back. She leaned slightly closer to the person on her right, poked her index finger in the soft arm of that person, and spoke in a low voice.

"See? We have one more brother who will make the girls go crazy." She was still poking that soft arm, but the person who replied to her scared her out of her wits.

"You are getting bolder day by day. I think you need to get disciplined properly," Su Hui threatened.

Lu Bao choked on her breath. "M-mom..." she stammered and couldn't speak further. She had completely forgotten that Lu Lian was standing to her left, not her right.

On the other side, Lu Lian looked at her sister with pity. She interrupted the pair by speaking up, "Brother Lu Feng is here... where is brother Lu Qiang?"

Lu Bao gasped. "Right! I didn't see him since he left my room. Did he go out?"

"Happy anniversary," Lu Feng congratulated as he passed the gift box to his grandparents. While Zhao Huang's eyes moistened, elder Lu had no expression in his.

"Thank you so much, dear," Zhao Shuang said, incredibly happy to receive the gift.

Without a word, Lu Huan handed the gift to his wife and stepped forward to wrap his grandson in a tight hug. He mumbled a thank you, his face alight with happiness.

Lu Feng stood stunned at the reaction but hugged his old grandfather back with an awkward smile on his face.

It had been a year since elder Lu spoke to Lu Feng. He was quite upset with the boy because of his bad habits. And since last year, Lu Feng didn't take the initiative to talk to his grandfather. So, this scene was a treat to the eyes of the others.

"My grandson brought a gift for me. Let's open it." Seeing Lu Huan happy, Zhao Shuang could only hand over the gift, tears welling in her eyes.

When elder Lu opened that box, there were two wine bottles and glasses inside it. One bottle was in the shape of a man in a suit, and the other was a woman in a wedding dress. If one kept them together, it looked like a married couple. The glasses too were different, having the face of a man and a woman on it.

When the men of the household saw this, they were surprised to see the logo on the bottle. It was an expensive wine the bottle of which you could customize to your will. The most crucial factor was that the wine needed to be pre-ordered at least a month in advance for it to be ready on time. The simple meaning was, Lu Feng had arranged for the gift a month in advance when no one was thinking about this occasion. It was flabbergasting that someone who pretended to ignore everyone was so thoughtful.

Everyone praised the gift to avoid making the atmosphere awkward.

"Thank you, Lu Feng," grandpa said as he stared at the gift. He was too overwhelmed to comment further.

The awkwardness got to him, and he suddenly excused himself from the room, saying he had an urgent call to take.
