685 A Beautiful Day
2:30 AM.
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan returned ho.
He turned on his phone and realized that he had received a lot of ssages.
“Hongyi, are you asleep?”
“Sleeping so early? Isn’t your life too old?”
“Tomorrow, our classmates are going to the beach to swim.”
Lu Benwei heaved a long sigh of relief and forwarded these ssages to Chu Yan.
Soon, he received a ssage from Chu Yan.
“I haven’t been to the beach with you yet.”
“You an you’re going?”
“Of course, but I don’t have a swimsuit yet. You can accompany
to buy a swimsuit tomorrow.”
“Alright, I’ll go to bed first. Good night.”
Lu Benwei put down his phone and said, “Swimwear.”
At the sa ti, the image of Chu Yan in a swimsuit appeared in his mind.
“Tsk tsk tsk.” Lu Benwei smacked his lips and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Then, he entered dreamland with a smile on his face.
…
The next day, Lu Benwei woke up early. When he realized that Chu Yan was still sleeping in, he staggered to the kitchen.
“Mom, what are you cooking?”
The kitchen was filled with fragrance. All kinds of fragrances are mixed to stimulate Lu Benwei’s appetite.
Seeing that the pork ribs were stewing in the pot, Lu Benwei did not think twice and reached out to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.
The ribs had already been stewed until they were tender. When he bit into them, the fragrance of the at filled his mouth.
“It’s not good to eat these so early in the morning, right?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Benwei was scolded by Madam Jiang Xiuqin.
“Wash your hands when eating! Forget it, it’s not enough to shut your mouth.”
Lu Benwei chuckled and slipped back into the living room.
Lu Dayong brought the newspaper to the living room.
“Little Lu, where have you been wandering around with Yanyan these past few days? You always leave early and return late as if you’re going to school.”
Lu Benwei grinned. “The school needs us to do a project. We’re busy.”
At this mont, Jiang Xiuqin shouted from the kitchen, “Little Lu, go and take out the chicken feet from the fridge and put them on the dining table.”
Lu Benwei did not think too much about it until he saw the lemon chicken feet in the refrigerator that looked like a washbasin. He realized that sothing was wrong.
“Mom, who are you bringing so many chicken feet for?” Lu Benwei asked casually.
“My fellow believers!” Jiang Xiuqin’s voice ca from the kitchen.
“Clang!”
Lu Benwei’s head exploded.
“Believers? When did you beco religious? What religion?”
“Not yet!”
Lu Dayong chuckled and walked over from the living room.
“Recently, there has been a wave of mbership in society. It’s the latest trend. Your mom just joined one too. She’s going to bring so gifts to the mbers today.”
Lu Benwei asked incoherently, “What kind of eting is that?”
He wanted to know the na of this eting. Yesterday’s guess had beco a prophecy. Jiang Xiuqin and Lu Dayong were indeed affected by the God Welcoming Association.
“A eting that can make your mother ten years younger!” Jiang Xiuqin walked out of the kitchen and teased Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei’s heart skipped a beat. Youth was sowhat similar to the “new life” in the teachings of the God Welcoming Association.
Chu Yan walked out of the room and rubbed her sleepy eyes. “Auntie, what kind of eting is it that can make people ten years younger?”
She had just overheard the conversation between Lu Benwei’s family mbers.
“It’s nothing. It’s just that a few of us aunties are organizing a group to play.”
Chu Yan’s eyes narrowed into two crescent moons. “Then can I join?”
“Of course, you can,” Jiang Xiuqin said with certainty.
“But I haven’t beco a mber yet. Will the other aunties accept ?” Chu Yan asked again.
“You’re so beautiful. We’re all happy to see you.” Jiang Xiuqin was already grinning from ear to ear.
“Alright, we’re going to the beach today. You can co with us.”
“Alright.”
After saying that, Chu Yan winked at Lu Benwei.
Jiang Xiuqin also turned around and ordered Lu Benwei, “Go, pack up the chicken feet.”
Lu Dayong chid in. “Be quick. You’re going with them today. Take good care of your mother and Yanyan.”
“Don’t just stand there. Send us to our destination.”
Lu Dayong’s smile stopped abruptly, and he pouted. “I haven’t eaten yet, I haven’t eaten yet.”
Jiang Xiuqin slapped her head. “I almost forgot. Let’s eat first.”
Chu Yan stuck out her tongue.
After entering the bathroom, Chu Yan’s voice ca out again after a while. “Lu Benwei, co in.”
After entering the bathroom, Lu Benwei saw Chu Yan frown. “What should we do? Did Auntie join the God Welcoming Association?”
“The God Welcoming Association is hated by everyone now. Even if it is, it should’ve changed its na. No matter what, we should get to the bottom of it.”
Lu Benwei nodded and prepared to leave.
However, Chu Yan suddenly grabbed Lu Benwei’s hand and said, “What should we do if it’s really the God Welcoming Association with a different na?”
Lu Benwei was stunned. At first, he could not think of a good solution. After thinking for a while, Lu Benwei slowly spat out a word, “Destroy! Destroy this organization before Mom falls too deep into it.”
Chu Yan nodded. This was almost the perfect solution. The only possible consequence would be a scolding from Madam Jiang Xiuqin.
…
They arrived at the agreed location.
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan looked at each other. They might have made a mistake.
Jiang Xiuqin had joined a group of middle-aged and elderly won.
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan mistakenly thought that this was the “eting” of the God Welcoming Association.
After making such a joke, Lu Benwei and Chu Yan did not know whether to laugh or cry. After figuring out the truth, Lu Benwei and Chu Yan ca to the beach.
“I was right, Wang Shuai was scolding Liu Jingjing.” Lu Benwei laughed.
The sunset shone into the sea, and young boys and girls played by the sea.
Liu Jingjing took the volleyball and threw it at Wang Shuai crazily.
Wang Shuai dodged while mocking Liu Jingjing, “You’re a tomboy. No one will be willing to marry you in the future.”
“Wang Shuai, you’re destined to be a bachelor in the future!”
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan had warm smiles on their faces as they watched the two of them play.
“Chu Yan?”
Suddenly, Lu Benwei called her softly.
“What’s wrong?”
Chu Yan looked back. The reflection of the multicolored light in her eyes was extrely dreamy. She was wearing a plain swimsuit, and the setting sun shone in from the side.
The girl’s body was enveloped in a warm glow. Her fluffy bangs were like sea fog, and a smile rippled on her delicate face.
“Will we always be like this?” Lu Benwei asked lightly, wanting to carve this mont into ti forever.
