Rules of Engagement novel Chapter 9

Although it was just a simple wedding banquet, after sending off the guests, they were still very tired.

Someone picked up Zed and Mia, they left after telling Soren to take good care of Elsa. The rest of the guests also left. Elsa's aunt, uncle and cousin Jamie would visit some relatives in Linchuan City. They also left after chatting with Elsa for a while.

Only Jane still held Elsa's hand and said to her, "Zaza! Call the police if something bad happen! Set a one-touch dial for 110 to call the police! And set another for my number!"

After all, it was a flash marriage, and she was really worried about Elsa. After she grabbed Elsa's mobile phone and pressed a few keys, she scratched her head with satisfaction. "I've already been your fast dial!"

"We are living in a harmonious society which is in good order. You are exaggerating!" Elsa grabbed her phone back and said, "Relax, I got it!"

"Auntie, how about my waffles?" Little Bun asked by their side.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot it. I'll make it up to you next time, okay? " They were so busy this day that Elsa really forgot to bring waffles for him.

Little Bun pouted and said, "Auntie, you don't love me anymore..."

While Jane continued, "It's always wise to play safe! Remember, don't forget to call me tomorrow morning. Remember it! "

"Well, Janie, you are little Bun's mother, not mine." While Elsa was comforting little Bun, she also made fun of Jane.

"Huh! Who would like to have a daughter like you? You'll make me feel old." Reluctantly, Jane dragged little Bun out of the hotel.

When she just went out of the door, a man rushed in. It was Ron. He threw the key of the car to Soren and said while he was gasping, "Last minute delivery. I just rushed here from 800 kilometers away. I am looking forward to your wedding ceremony. Any wine left for me?"

"Nope." Soren said.

"Hey, what's the matter with you? How can you be so heartless?"

Soren turned around and said, "Unless you help me to get my stuff into the car first."

"Okay!" Ron quickly agreed then turned to look at Elsa, who was standing next to him. With a playful smile on his handsome face, he greeted, "Hi, sister-in-law!"

Then he turned to Johnson and Blanche. "Well, you must be Elsa's parents? Elsa is so pretty, which means that she has inherited her parents' good looks..."

"Ron!" Soren gave him a dissatisfied look.

He walked towards the elevator very soon. Although he looked utterly carefree, he still held the elevator with one hand in front of his other hand very politely. After everyone came into the elevator, he closed the door, showing good manners.

When they went to pack up, Soren said softly, "Let's go home."

"Home?" The word surprised Elsa.

It turned out that the marriage she had planned was too simple. She hadn't thought about these all. Where was their home? Where would she live after getting married? And how? …… Many questions were placed in front of her at once. Originally, she was not that forward. Why did she become a little different from herself after she met him?

"I know that you have booked a room for Mom and Dad in the hotel, but in the afternoon I heard from Mom that Dad needed to take Chinese medicine to recuperate his health. It's not convenient for them to live in the hotel, so I decided to let them go back home with us. I don't have a very big house, but it's enough for we four."

"Thank you." Elsa really didn't know what else to say except "thank you". That was the only thing she could do now.

Soren smiled. He put a pile of things on Ron's shoulder for him to take.

"I'll take them," Elsa said hastily.

Her glasses had been sent back by the waiter. It turned out that the waiter forgot to put them in the storage box but kept them in his pocket. Now she could see things clearly. How could she do nothing to help?

"Just let him do it. Yesterday, something happened to his car because he ran into someone. So he borrowed my car for some days and left in a hurry. My keys and wallet were in the car. If he hasn't come back, I will become homeless." Soren also carried some heavy bags. They were all brought from home by Johnson and Blanche, including quilts, bed sheets, pickled vegetables, sweaters, and so on.

Elsa had to let go of them.

She could go to the front desk to pay the bill. She calculated the room charge and the money of the six-table banquet, which was about 20000, a medium price.

While the waitress was looking for the receipt, she took out her credit card.
