The Yunxi villa area in the rain seems to be shrouded in a noisy and uniform water curtain.
Zheng Shuwan came from the Lu family, and it was rare for her to have dinner with the Zheng family, so she just talked about something with the Zheng family.
But Shen Chaoxi turned his head and saw that Lu Yunzhou, who had left the table and said he wanted to answer the phone, seemed to have been out for more than ten minutes and had not come back yet.
She couldn't help but get up, leave the family banquet, and come out of the luxurious hall. It was raining outside, and the drizzle was like silk, dense, intertwined, and falling from the eaves.
Falling on Shen Chaoxi's shoulder, a gust of cold wind blew by. Her face was fair and her black hair was a little messy, but she stayed outside for several minutes and did not see Lu Yunzhou.
Maybe it was because the coat she was wearing was placed on the seat at the family banquet and she didn't put on any clothes. Then she felt that the temperature was really cold.
"Miss Shen!"
At this moment, a servant from the Zheng family came forward and called her.
Shen Chaoxi turned around and saw a young servant from the Zheng family, wearing the uniform here, walking forward.
"Miss Shen, Master Lu asked me to wait for you outside."
The bright lights illuminate the area behind you very brightly, as if you are in a quiet and luxurious courtyard.
"wait for me?"
"Yes."
Shen Chaoxi's voice was low and she seemed to be unable to detect any emotion, but her eyes revealed a hint of doubt.
"Where are the others?"
Then I heard the Zheng family servant say: "Miss Shen."
"Master Lu left more than ten minutes ago. When he left, he specifically asked me to tell you."
It turned out to be Lu Yunzhou. After receiving the call, he seemed to have something urgent and needed to leave first to deal with it.
Before leaving, he picked up his cell phone and glanced into the banquet hall, as if he was remembering something and was afraid that Shen Chaoxi wouldn't be able to find him.
He asked a servant from the Zheng family to stand guard outside and told her to tell her if he saw her coming out.
"Master Lu also said that he would finish the matter and come back within half an hour."
Shen Chaoxi: "I know, thank you."
"Ms. Shen, you're welcome. This is what we should do.
In fact, after the military exercise ended, I was quite busy these two days.
The same goes for Shen Chaoxi, but looking at the look on Lu Yunzhou's face when he received the call at the family banquet today, it seemed like there was something important.
Otherwise, according to his personality, he would not insist on going out to pick it up, and would just reply with a few words in his hand.
But after Shen Chaoxi came out, she was not in a hurry to go back, because Mr. Shen said that Ah Yuan came out to wait for her.
Although, if he wasn't waiting for her outside, then he might really have something to do, and he would be delayed after coming out.
She simply waited outside and watched, but amidst the sound of drizzle, the sky gradually turned dark.
She came here in the evening.
It's only been almost twenty minutes now, not that long, but in autumn, it seems to get dark earlier.
At half past six in the evening, it was already dark.
At this moment, outside the gate of Yunxi Villa, a very familiar black car drove into Shen Chaoxi's eyes.
The ground was wet, and when the car drove in, it made a subtle rustling sound, like the sound of rain.
Then, she saw the car door open, and a noble man wearing a pure black suit, matching the color of her clothes, got out of the car.
Lu Yunzhou looked up, and when he saw the person standing in front of him, his dark eyes suddenly dimmed.
He stepped on the rain and passed through a huge fish pond, and his low and hoarse voice could be heard in the sound of rain.
"Why did you come out?"
Lu Yunzhou frowned and his voice was a little cold, but when he saw her pale face, he stepped forward and held her hand.
Naturally, she found that her hands were cold.
There were still wounds on her hands, with thin blood scabs on them. Lu Yunzhou did not dare to use too much force for fear of hurting her.
He just pulled her and stood outside the gate of Yunxi Villa, where the rain could not fall and where she was sheltered from the wind.
Shen Chaoxi: "There are too many people, it's boring, and it's too noisy." Her few words revealed her low mood.
Rain hit the floor-to-ceiling windows, but the light in the hall was indeed soft.
"correct."
Shen Chaoxi didn't care that he was holding her wrist, but raised her eyes, looked at him and said, "Isn't Chief Lu busy with something?"
He came to the Zheng family's banquet, answered the phone halfway, and left to deal with things.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like you are very busy.
Lu Yunzhou had a cold face, as if he was in a bad mood.
Especially after he got out of the car and saw her standing outside in such a thin black skirt, his voice became much lower.
"It's been taken care of."
He said in a low voice, "Go in first, okay?"
She's going to catch a cold like this.
"Go in?"
Shen Chaoxi looked at him, held her wrist and walked inside.
"Get your clothes and let's go home."
There was a hint of coldness in Lu Yunzhou's body. He might have just come back from outside, but he stopped and said seriously to her.
Shen Chaoxi raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you just come here?"
He came here to attend a banquet but left because of something else. So far, he hasn't even had much to eat.
But the man's next words made Shen Chaoxi stare blankly, because Lu Yunzhou said coldly.
"If Chao Chao feels bored, I won't stay any longer."

Then Lu Yunzhou came in with her.
Go to the second floor of Zheng's house and pick up the clothes.
When preparing to leave.
People in the banquet hall suddenly frowned. Si Zhiyu, who had no clue, saw Zheng Xing coming out.
"Sister Zheng?!"
She quickly stepped forward and shouted affectionately.
"Huh? What's wrong, Miss Si?"
Hearing the voice, Zheng Xing turned around and saw Si Zhiyu wearing a pure white dress.
"Is the food not to your liking?" Zheng Xing asked with concern.
"No." Si Zhiyu shook her head.
She looked at the girl being held by a man in the distance, feeling very uncomfortable in her heart.
She turned around, looked at Zheng Xing, and asked someone here who might know the girl's identity.
"Sister Zheng, do you know who she is?"
She asked carefully, but it revealed her thoughts. Zheng Xing could tell at a glance.
"Why do you ask this?"
"I just think that lady is so pretty."
"But I don't know. I've never seen her before. She doesn't seem to be from the Beijing circle?"
Si Zhiyu raised her eyes and said this to Zheng Xing tentatively.
"Um."
Zheng Xing also looked towards the people outside and saw Shen Chaoxi, who happened to be held by Lu Yunzhou. Thinking of Shen Chaoxi's identity, Zheng Xing said with a gentle smile.
"You probably haven't seen it before."
"But Master Lu, how could he know someone who is not from the Beijing circle?"
"Could it be that she is from another country?"
Si Zhiyu couldn't get the answer now, and she was very worried.
"That's not right. Master Lu, isn't he engaged to the eldest daughter of the Shen family?" How could he fall in love with someone else?
Even if she is not the eldest lady of the Shen family, she should be her if there is a chance.
I could hear something wrong in Si Zhiyu's tone, as if she was concerned about it.
Zheng Xing turned around and looked at her with soft eyes: "Who does Miss Si think she could be?"
Zheng Xing's eyes were wise and gentle, and when he asked this question, he looked directly at Si Zhiyu who had just said so many words.
Including Si Zhiyu herself said that the prince of the Lu family was engaged to the eldest lady of the Shen family, how could she possibly understand?
"She, is she?" How is it possible?
"Sister Zheng..." Si Zhiyu suddenly frowned and turned around, wanting to say something to Zheng Xing.
Then I heard Zheng Xing say: "Miss Si, I know you like Azhou, but Azhou already has a sweetheart."
Moreover, she is well protected by him and must be taken with her wherever she goes.
Even if he didn't hesitate to talk to his uncle... I don't know what he thought of, Zheng Xing turned his head and looked into Si Zhiyu's eyes.
"Anyway, Miss Si, there are some things you can't force."
Zheng Xing didn't make his words too obvious.
Judging from Azhou's appearance, he was extremely protective of Shen Chaoxi.
However, Si Zhiyu felt very disappointed and sad when she saw Lu Yunzhou leading people away.
