Shen Qingwu stiffened and looked sideways at Lu Yanxing.
He was dressed more formally today, a well-fitting black handmade suit, ironed without a trace of wrinkles, and a small stand-up collared shirt of the same color. It was obviously a very low-key outfit, but when it was worn on Lu Yanxing, it could easily steal everyone's attention.
Her gaze turned to one side and fell on his outstanding hair color. The highlight dyed linen gray has a hint of haze blue. Anyone who takes a look at it will probably never forget it.
She turned her face away, looking intently, as if indifferent.
"I forgot." Lu Yanxing answered casually without raising his eyelids.
"Really, I met Ji Nanhuai there. His friend's back looks very similar to yours, and he also brought a female companion." Lu Suizhi looked at Shen Qingwu with cold eyes, tightened his fingers, and pinched The palm was like a small boneless hand, "Qingwu, you were at the auction that day, did you see it?"
"I didn't pay attention." Shen Qingwu withdrew his hand and responded calmly.
"Female companion? Brat, do you have a girlfriend? Are you afraid to tell me that you brought your girlfriend back? I'm warning you, don't let me bring all the blond foreign girls home." Mr. Lu suddenly became nervous.
Before Lu Yanxing went abroad, he had a good time with the boys from the Ji family and the Xie family. When Lu Sui mentioned Ji Nanhuai, Mr. Lu naturally thought that the person around Ji Nanhuai must be Lu Yanxing.
Lu Yanxing's eyelids twitched and he replied patiently: "No."
"Really?" Mr. Lu didn't want to eat the food this time. He put down his chopsticks and continued, "It's okay if you don't. I have taken a fancy to a girl who is excellent in all aspects."
Wang Man asked with a smile: "Dad, whose daughter did you choose for Yanxing?"
"Old Song family."
Lu Yingyuan's expression changed. He looked at Wang Man and asked calmly, "Dad, are you talking about the Song family in the south?"
Mr. Lu nodded, "The Song family has gained momentum in the past few years, and its future development cannot be underestimated. You can meet me someday, Miss."
"Not interested." Lu Yanxing pushed the bowl and chopsticks forward, leaned back on the chair, and said wistfully: "Old man, have you eaten too much salt? Ask Uncle Zhuang to accompany you to the park at the foot of the mountain. It’s also good to spin around and dance in the square, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Mr. Lu also lost his temper. He slapped the table and the emerald jade ring on his thumb made a clanging sound on the table.
"You have to go whether you are interested or not. Our Lu family has always emphasized political and business marriages. I don't care how you play outside, but if you want to marry someone back home, there is no way you can enter the door of my Lu family without my old man's nod."
Lu Yanxing sneered coldly, and his handsome lips curved in a cool arc, "I haven't entered the Lu family's door for more than ten years, and I'm still living well? What, grandpa, do you want to throw me abroad again?" ?”
His eyes were half lowered, and his gaze could only fall on the table beside him, the little hand holding a small spoon and messing with the dessert, "I'm afraid... you can't do it this time."
"You are full, eat slowly."
"you……"
Mr. Lu was so angry that his face turned red and his chest heaved. Upon seeing this, Wang Man immediately went over to help the old man.
She advised: "Dad, please don't get so angry. I've been abroad for so many years. Isn't it normal for young people to be playful. After enough fun, he will naturally give up."
"Humph, he is only one year younger than Sui Sui. Look, Sui Sui is about to start a family."
The meal ended unhappily.
Mr. Lu locked himself in the study and saw no one.
Lu Yingyuan and Wang Man were the most nervous.
"At this age, the old man can't stay angry all the time. It's not good for his heart." Wang Man was a famous Jiangnan beauty when she was young. She was dressed in a bright and noble cheongsam. Her eyebrows were raised slightly and she glanced at Shen Qing from the end of her eyes. Wu.
"Qingwu, you always know how to make people happy. You go see the old man later and don't let him be upset all the time."
Shen Qingwu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she clenched and unclenched the hands on her knees. She stood up and responded meekly: "Okay."
Lu Sui then pulled her from the side and said, "I'll accompany you."
Wang Man glanced at the two people's clasped hands with dissatisfaction and said, "Then your father will look for you."
"Then I'll come over to you later?" Lu Sui gently shook her hand and asked in a low voice.
"Well, you get busy first."
…
The old house of the Lu family occupies most of the top of Lemen Mountain in the east of Jingzhou. The villa still maintains its appearance a hundred years ago, with red bricks and gray tiles, and the west wall is covered with red and green ivy, adding a touch of warmth to this magnificent manor house. .
Mr. Lu's study was in the main building on the east side. Shen Qingwu made a sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus seed soup with his own hands and sent it to Mr. Lu.
When passing through the west corridor, she heard Wang Man's voice coming from one of the rooms and stopped unconsciously.
"Then, think carefully about your marriage to that girl."
"Mom, what did you say?"
"Can't you see it yet? The wife your grandfather is looking for for Lu Yanxing is the daughter of Mr. Song from the South."
"Back then, after your second uncle married Commander Xia's daughter, the old man intended to pass the position of head of the family to him, Lu Yingsheng. If it hadn't been for that plane crash, today's head of the Lu family would have been your second uncle."
"Marry a virtuous wife. That girl from the Shen family has a top-notch face and a mouth that can coax your grandfather and you. What use is she? If you still want to compete for the position of the head of the family, Mom will help you Choose a wife with a good foundation and a bright future. As for that girl, if you really like it, just keep it outside..."
"Mom, the whole Jingzhou knows that Qingwu is my fiancée."
"Don't worry, as long as you nod, Mom will have a way to make that girl break off the engagement, and she will never let you live up to your words."
"That's enough, head of the family, I am bound to win, and so is Qingwu. Don't touch her."
"Also, there is no need to mention this kind of thing in the future. I always have only one answer."
As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps seemed to be approaching the door.
Shen Qingwu hurriedly walked forward. Just after taking a few steps, the door to the side suddenly opened. A handsome man who made everyone angry was leaning on the door frame, staring at her with a pair of passionate peach blossom eyes, his posture was very ruffian.
She only glanced at him, then coldly withdrew her gaze and prepared to leave.
At this time, there was a sound of opening the door behind her, and she saw Lu Sui was about to step out of the room. Almost at the same time, her arms tightened suddenly, and the next second, she was dragged into the room by a brute force and pressed against the door.
Shen Qingwu bit his back teeth and said in a breathy voice: "Are you crazy?!"
This man actually dragged her into his room under Lu Suizhi's eyes. Wang Man was also there. If they saw it, according to Wang Man's virtue, he would just blame everything on her. In the days to come, she was afraid that she would be unable to move even an inch.
The man in front of him still looked like he didn't care at all, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised and a cynical smile.
He slowly approached and whispered in her ear: "It's exciting, isn't it?"
The voice that is deliberately lowered is low-alcohol and magnetic, and it is so sexy that people can't put it down. As she spoke, her cool lips teased her small, round earlobes intentionally or unintentionally.
Shen Qingwu's heartbeat suddenly became chaotic. He felt that his body was soft, his legs were numb and numb, and even his cheeks were getting hot.
"They didn't notice, just listen." Fortunately, the man restrained himself quickly, stood up straight, and looked at the woman in front of him at leisure.
Hearing this, Shen Qingwu listened carefully to the movement outside the door. Sure enough, the footsteps had faded away, and the corridor was quiet.
Her tense expression finally relaxed.
"Did you make it?" Lu Yanxing raised his chin and looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus seed soup in her hand.
Shen Qingwu came to his senses and realized that a lot of the lotus seed soup in the bowl was scattered on the plate.
Before she could answer, a big hand took away the porcelain bowl on her plate, raised her head and drank.
Shen Qingwu:......
With a "clang" sound, the man put the empty bowl back in its place.
"So sweet." The man's mouth curved, revealing his white and neat teeth.
A clean and bright smile, with a trance-like youthful feel, just like the boy Shen Qingwu had never seen before, running away from time, running to her, rubbing her head, and calling her "Little Awu" with a smile. .
Shen Qingwu pursed his lips and lowered his slender eyelashes to block the flowing light under his eyes, "What do you want to do?"
"I want you to break up."
