Special Effects Pheromone - Chap 31
Qu Jing’s impatience was written all over his face. Only after hearing Yu Hai’s affirmative answer did he reveal a lukewarm smile and said, “Thank you, father-in-law.”
Yu Hai, caught off guard by Qu Jing calling him “father-in-law,” was initially surprised but quickly adapted and felt good about it. He smiled and nodded, “Okay, okay, we’re family now.”
Yu Hai happily accepted—given the current situation, Duan Keyi couldn’t continue to oppose. He could only smile and nod, “Great, great.”
Then, Duan Keyi looked at Yu Yong and said, “Quickly call him ‘brother.’”
Yu Yong, with an unwilling face, reluctantly called out, “Brother!”
Qu Jing smirked, “Hehe.”
Yu Zhao sat at the dining table, habitually smiling along with everyone, but his mind was still confused.
When this meal was about to happen, Yu Zhao was worried. It wasn’t entirely his fault; Duan Keyi did intend to sabotage this marriage. Many deeply in love couples could break up during discussions about marriage due to an inability to agree on conditions. What’s more, Yu Zhao and Qu Jing had only known each other through a blind date for a short period. Duan Keyi thought that by being difficult enough, he could scare off the prospective in-laws. However, he didn’t expect the unexpected attitude from Qu’s family.
The exchange at the dinner table made Yu Zhao’s heart race continuously. He feared that someone from Qu’s family might not be able to handle it and would stand up and say, “this marriage won’t happen!”
Especially when Duan Keyi proposed skipping the prenuptial agreement, Yu Zhao’s heart almost jumped to his throat.
However, Qu Jing’s reaction was unexpected, yet it made Yu Zhao’s heart beat even faster.
After calling Yu Hai “father-in-law” and acknowledging Yu Yong as “brother,” Qu Jing felt quite accomplished. He then reached out to embrace Yu Zhao, suddenly kissed him, and said, “From now on, you are mine.”
Yu Zhao’s face turned red in an instant.
“So soon!” Qu Jing’s father muttered, “We haven’t even obtained the marriage certificate!”
“Right!” Qu Jing said, “We’ll go register tomorrow!”
“That soon?” Yu Zhao was surprised.
Duan Keyi also said, “This is too hasty! You should at least choose an auspicious day!”
However, Qu Jing took out his phone, opened the “Auspicious Day” app, tapped a few times, and said, “Look, it says tomorrow is an auspicious day for marriage!”
Saying this, as if to prove he wasn’t lying, Qu Jing turned his phone screen toward everyone.
His father was still astonished, “But… but tomorrow?”
Duan Keyi also nodded, “And what about the wedding? When will the wedding take place?”
But Jiang Huixi said, “Didn’t you just say that we can organize it in our commoner way? We commoners usually get the certificate first and then think about the wedding.”
Duan Keyi was about to say something, but Yu Hai was already impatient. He pulled Duan Keyi and said, “Alright, let’s do it their way!”
Qu Jing suddenly spoke up, looking at Yu Zhao, “What do you think?”
To be honest, Yu Zhao’s mind was blank, “I…”
Seeing this, Qu Jing hugged him and said, “Okay, let’s discuss it later. There are plenty of auspicious days this month.”
Being gently held by Qu Jing, warmth filled Yu Zhao’s chest. When he came to his senses, he regretted it: Why did I hesitate just now? Shouldn’t I have agreed immediately?
Soon the meal was considered finished.
The members of the Yu family and the Qu family dispersed, wearing smiles on their faces, but each harboring their own thoughts.
In the Yu family’s car, Duan Keyi couldn’t help but complain, “Zhao, your future husband is quite impulsive. He even used pheromones to suppress me! I’m not like you, using a barrier patch. Qu Jing’s pheromone concentration almost made me faint.”
Yu Zhao was about to say something, but Yu Hai snorted, “That’s your fault! You had it coming!”
Duan Keyi’s face stiffened. Yu Yong couldn’t hold back, “father, how can you curse at dad!”
“I can curse at you too!” Yu Hai shouted, “Do you think I don’t know what you guys are thinking? What’s wrong with Zhao’s marriage? His marriage to Qu Jing is beneficial to our whole family!”
Duan Keyi hurriedly said, “I didn’t mean that. I just wanted to fight for more benefits for Zhao. Look, I even made it so Zhao doesn’t have to sign a prenuptial agreement, right?”
Yu Hai understood that Duan Keyi was lying, but he didn’t want to argue. He closed his eyes and rested, not speaking.The car suddenly became quiet as it drove into the night.
On the other hand, Qu Jing’s father muttered in the car, complaining that the Yu family were a bunch of scoundrels!
Jiang Huixi and Qu Jing didn’t respond.
Qu Jing’s father, seeing that his wife and son weren’t talking, hummed a few times, and after a while, he said again, “Moreover, why the rush to get married the next day? Shouldn’t we discuss it first?”
Qu Jing said, “I need to let the Yu family know that when I say we’ll get married on a certain day, we will, without needing to consider their opinions.”
Qu Jing’s father retorted, “But in the end, didn’t you also consider Zhao’s opinion?”
Qu Jing was stunned for a moment, then said without good humor, “Can it be the same?”
