downstairs
Cheng Hailan made such a fuss that it was ugly. She really didn't expect that Leng Muchiao would cancel the engagement. Knowing this, she immediately asked people to withdraw, but was told that Leng Muchiao would not allow it. Cheng Hailan came over immediately in anger.
"What exactly do you want to do? You proposed the marriage with the Bo family yourself. Now that the Leng family and the Bo family are entangled in many businesses, you have canceled the engagement."
"The board of directors has stopped it a long time ago, and you agreed. Why do you suddenly change your tune now?"
"Do you know that Leng Jiangang has hired many directors, and he is always waiting to take you down? How come you still cause such a big trouble?"
Cheng Hailan was furious, but Leng Muxiao didn't react much. Cheng Hailan knew her son's character anyway. He never liked others pointing fingers at him. She breathed out slightly, "You have to get rid of it right now." Announcement, add another explanation, saying that the public relations department made a mistake and did not cancel the engagement."
Cheng Hailan didn't get a response from Leng Muchiao. Instead, she heard an inappropriate voice.
"Is dinner ready?"
Luo Xiaoyi rubbed his hazy sleepy eyes and strolled away.
When Cheng Hailan saw Luo Xiaoyi, her calm face suddenly collapsed. She spoke in a very aggressive tone and pointed at Luo Xiaoyi, "For her?"
"You just broke off the engagement just because of her?"
Cheng Hailan was originally an angry balloon that would explode at the first touch, but now seeing Luo Xiaoyi, he was simply in danger.
Luo Xiaoyi seemed not to notice Cheng Hailan's anger at all. She smiled and put her hand on Leng Muxiao's shoulder, "Cancelled? So fast, so obedient."
"Since the engagement has been canceled, don't work together, otherwise people will misunderstand you."
Cheng Hailan's eyes were so wide that they were about to fall out of her head. She said angrily, "What qualifications do you have to criticize our Leng family's cooperation?"
Luo Xiaoyi groaned without getting angry, "Then I'll point my finger at Bo Qing. Then I'll poke her temple."
Luo Xiaoyi deliberately wanted to irritate Cheng Hailan and provoke the relationship between their mother and son. At the same time, she also wanted to spy on Leng Muchiao's attitude.
Cheng Hailan didn't know yet that Luo Xiaoyi had hurt Bo Qing. When she heard that Luo Xiaoyi not only wanted Leng Muxiao to cancel the engagement, but also made trouble for Bo Qing.
It's simply audacious.
Anger made her lose the virtue of a lady. Cheng Hailan waved his hand and wanted to teach Luo Xiaoyi a lesson, but was caught by Leng Muxiao, who had been silent.
"Don't do anything to her."
"You... what kind of drug did she give you? You've lost your mind. You're still not my son."
Even if Leng Muxiao usually disagrees with him, he has never let him down like this.
He obviously wanted to protect Luo Xiaoyi.
"Is she worthy?"
"She doesn't even have a child now, and she doesn't deserve to stay in our Leng family. If you want to have fun, you can find a house to stay, but what are you doing now?"
Leng Muxiao's eyes darkened, and he felt that the hand on his shoulder trembled when the child was mentioned.
He didn't want Cheng Hailan to affect Luo Xiaoyi's mood, so he made a domineering and forceful request, "I can handle the matter, you don't have to worry."
Don't worry, just saying that she doesn't have to worry about it.
I dislike her for being nosy.
Cheng Hailan gritted his teeth, "You must give me an explanation today."
Cheng Hailan couldn't see Luo Xiaoyi's proud look. She was clearly demonstrating against him.
No matter what, Cheng Hailan would not allow people like Luo Xiaoyi to stay by Leng Muchiao's side anymore.
"Go to the study to talk."
Cheng Hailan didn't want to see Luo Xiaoyi again, so she turned around and went directly to the study.
Leng Muxiao lowered his eyes and pulled down Xiao Yi's hand on his shoulder.
"Your hands are cold. There is mutton soup stewed in the kitchen. You can go and drink some."
"Eat first, don't wait for me."
"You can ignore what my mother just said. I will do what I promised you."
Leng Muchiao had long seen that Luo Xiaoyi was deliberately provocative and wanted to make Cheng Hailan angry.
Over the years, she had taken a lot of heat from Cheng Hailan.
She wanted to vent, and Leng Muxiao was used to it.
As long as she comes back to life and no longer looks like the broken doll she once was, that's fine with him.
There won't be any complaints.
As long as she wants, he can accommodate her.
Luo Xiaoyi pulled her hand back displeased. Originally, she only touched Leng Muxiao to stimulate Cheng Hailan.
Now that he was holding her in his hand, her whole body was terrified, and the resistance in her bones made her body freeze.
Fortunately, Leng Muchiao didn't notice. He asked a servant to serve her and followed her to the study.
"Miss Luo, the chef prepares the dishes according to your preferences. You can try them."
The food in front of her is what she usually likes, but she doesn't have much appetite.
She took a few bites.
I was still thinking about what Leng Muchiao would talk to Cheng Hailan.
What is Leng's attitude now?
Can Leng Jiangang dismount Leng Muxiao?
She gradually fell into deep thought.
I don’t even know when Cheng Hailan will come.
Cheng Hailan snorted coldly, "Don't think that you are taken too seriously. It's just a temporary measure."
Cheng Hailan wanted to say something more, but when she heard the footsteps behind her, she took back what she wanted to say, glared at Luo Xiaoyi, and left.
This time, Cheng Hailan left very simply.
The anger from before was gone from his face.
She didn't know what Leng Muchiao told her.
"Why are the dishes cold?"
Leng Muchiao frowned and said unhappily.
The servant was about to take the dishes to heat up, and soon, the dishes were back on the table again.
Luo Xiaoyi put down the bowl and chopsticks. She was not interested in eating with Leng Muxiao, "You eat slowly."
Just as he was about to leave, Leng Muxiao pushed him back, "Eat some more with me."
Leng Muchiao could tell that Luo Xiaoyi didn't eat much.
Luo Xiaoyi couldn't even pretend to smile, she didn't.
"I didn't say you were hungry, you ate too little."
"Or are you saying that you can't eat without my mother?"
he knows.
He knew he did it on purpose.
Luo Xiaoyi didn't pretend, "Yeah, the audience ran away. I'm too lazy to act."
He knew that everything she did intimately was to stimulate others.
But he didn't dare to expose it, didn't dare to ask deeply, because he was afraid that after exposing it, she wouldn't even be willing to pretend.
Leng Muchiao didn't mention Cheng Hailan again, but raised his eyes and asked, "Can you stay with me?"
His tone was a bit weak.
It seemed like he was begging.
This gesture reminded her of the time when she begged him not to abort the child.
Luo Xiaoyi had a cold face, shook off Leng Muxiao's hand, and said firmly: "No."
She left simply, and Leng Muxiao felt uncomfortable watching her leaving figure.
She resisted him a lot, but at least she stayed with him.
The rest, just wait for time to fade away.
Maybe they can go back to the past.
This is Leng Muchiao's only hope now.
