Chu Mianmian was also very excited. She looked at Fu Miaoling and Chu Chenghong, "Mom and Dad, when I get these betrothal gifts, our family will move to Xiangshan Villa. From now on, we will live close to each other and we can see each other anytime we want."
Fu Miaoling nodded with emotion and said, "Okay, our family Mianmian is still sensible."
Chu Chenghong's face was also full of relief.
"My parents only have a daughter like you, so of course they will listen to you."
Being able to live in Xiangshan Villa is something Chu Chenghong never dared to think about in his life.
I didn't expect that the Lu family would throw out such a big gift just for getting engaged.
My daughter is still promising!
As he thought about it, he felt that his face was shining and he even held his head higher.
…
On the stage, Mr. Lu picked up the microphone again.
"Next, I want to invite my prospective granddaughter-in-law, who is from the Chu Group..."
Hearing this, Chu Mianmian's heart rose in her throat, Chu Group, she knew it would be her!
At the Xiangshan Villa before, she was angry at Lu Xingyan for blocking Mother Lu's words, but she didn't expect that the Lu family wanted to give her a surprise!
Just when she was about to hold up her skirt and go on stage in front of everyone, Mr. Lu's next words made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
"Miss Chu Yuechu comes on stage!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
It turns out that the person the Lu family is getting engaged to is not Chu Mianmian, but Chu Yue, the daughter of the former chairman of the Chu Group!
Then just now, several members of the Chu family were as arrogant as roosters. I guess they didn't expect this result, right?
I wonder if their faces hurt?
Many people looked in the direction of Chu Chenghong and the others. Sure enough, the expressions on their faces were very complicated.
There was surprise, embarrassment, and even more incredible.
Chu Yue, who was sitting in the corner and resting, curled her lips and stood up from her seat gracefully.
Chu Mianmian glanced in her direction and shouted sharply, "Why Chu Yue? I am obviously Mr. Lu's savior!"
Through the crowd, Lu Xinghe looked at Chu Mianmian, and then took the microphone from Mr. Lu.
"Are you sure you saved me?"
Chu Mianmian said with a face full of reluctance, "This is something everyone knows. Don't you want Mr. Lu to admit it?"
Lu Xinghe's expression was a little cold.
"Regardless of whether you are my savior or not, what does it have to do with you who I am engaged to?"
Chu Mianmian ignored Fu Miaoling's pull and looked a little crazy.
"I don't care, I just can't do it with Chu Yue! No way!"
Why?
Since Chu Yue was born, food, clothing, and everything else were better than hers.
She just doesn't like her, and wants to take away everything she has.
In the past few years, Chu Yue had finally been trampled under her feet, but unexpectedly she got involved with the Lu family.
This made her very unwilling!
Chu Yue smiled and slowly walked onto the stage in front of everyone's attention.
"I'm curious, why can't I do it?"
Her expression was indifferent, with a slight smile on her face, and her elegant temperament was in sharp contrast to Chu Mianmian, who had fallen into madness.
Everyone was talking about it.
"Chu Mianmian really thought that after saving Mr. Lu, the Lu family would have to listen to her. Why is her face so big?"
"A pheasant is a pheasant. Even if it takes away someone's life, it cannot become a true phoenix."
"That's right, look at this Miss Chu Yue. She was unknown in the past, but her temperament and appearance can easily surpass Chu Mianmian!"
"That is, the temperament cultivated since childhood, how can Chu Mianmian compare to it? This Chu Mianmian is really good at it."
"Recently, there are really endless gossips about the Chu family."
…
Lu Xinghe's eyes were on Chu Yue from beginning to end. When he saw her coming to the stage, he hurriedly stepped forward and led her onto the stage.
"Nothing happened just now, right?" His voice was very soft, but his tone was full of worry.
Chu Yue smiled slightly, "It's no big deal. They can't bully me. Didn't you also assign me bodyguards?"
Lu Xinghe curled his lips, and only when he faced Chu Yue did he show a gentle look on his face.
He turned and winked at the bodyguard not far away.
The bodyguard nodded and went down.
Lu Xinghe stood on the stage, holding a microphone in one hand and holding Chu Yue in the other.
The reporters picked up their cameras and took pictures of the two.
"Oh my gosh, they are so perfect for each other. They look great no matter how you take them. I will take more pictures to use as screensavers."
On the stage, Lu Xinghe spoke.
"Before the engagement begins, I would like to clarify one thing. I did fall into the water in Yunshan more than two months ago, but it was not Chu Mianmian who rescued me from the water at that time, but the residents living nearby."
If someone was really kind to him, he would certainly be willing to repay the kindness generously, but if there were ulterior motives, he would not tolerate it.
Especially for someone like Chu Mianmian who wanted to repay her kindness, he didn't want to give her any chance!
Chu Mianmian panicked.
"You lied, I was the one who saved you at that time!"
Lu Xinghe looked at her coldly.
"You said you saved me. There was a sudden flood in Yunshan. How did you fish me out of the river? Miss Chu, can you tell me the details?"
"I……"
Chu Mianmian was speechless for a moment.
Lu Xinghe was too lazy to listen to what she had to say and just looked at the door.
"Bring the people up."
The next moment, the bodyguard led a middle-aged man in his thirties into the banquet hall.
When she saw the man, Chu Mianmian became even more flustered, because she had given this man one hundred thousand to shut up.
But she didn't expect that this man would betray her.
This was the first time the man faced such a scene, and he was a little timid for a moment.
Lu Xinghe looked at him.
"Tell me, what happened on that day of clouds and floods?"
Before he was completely unconscious, he was still conscious, so he could find this man based on that vague impression.
The man looked in the direction of Chu Mianmian, and when he saw her vicious gaze, he shrank his neck.
He took out a card from his pocket and handed it in Chu Mianmian's direction.
"Miss Chu, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't keep it a secret from you."
Chu Mianmian was extremely angry.
"You dare not keep your words! Do you know the consequences of offending my Chu family?"
The man looked up with some fear. When Mr. Lu saw this scene, he couldn't help but frown.
He walked slowly to the front of the stage.
"Just say that as long as my Lu family is here, the Chu family can't afford to make trouble."
"Yes." The man quickly put the card into Chu Mianmian's hand, and then said, "On the day of the flood in Yunshan, I was standing in the attic of my home and saw a person floating on the water, so I quickly took the lifebuoy and the After the rope came out of the door, I tied the rope to a tree stump on the shore, held the lifebuoy and went into the water to rescue the person."
"Later I saw the man unconscious and running towards the city on his back. Maybe it was because of the bumps on the road that he vomited a lot of water." The man pointed at Chu Mianmian beside him, "Then I met this Chu Mianmian on the road. Miss, she said she knew the person on my back and gave me 100,000 yuan not to tell anyone about what happened that day. I thought I could get 100,000 yuan, so I wouldn’t tell anyone if I didn’t.”
"That's it. I really don't know anything else."
Mr. Lu nodded, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"You saved my grandson, and our Lu family will not treat you badly."
Mr. Lu turned to look at Chu Mianmian aside. Without the filter that saved his grandson, he just felt that this girl who didn't seem to be annoying or liked him too much before was now inexplicably disgusted.
"Miss Chu, what else do you have to say?"
Chu Mianmian felt her legs were weak and fell directly to the ground, shaking her head.
"No, it's not like that. I saved Mr. Lu, I saved him."
Lu Xinghe led Chu Yue to the stage.
"If Miss Chu still refuses to admit it, I have the transfer record you made to that big brother that day."
