"Tonight, grandpa will announce the marriage between the Lu family and the Song family."
Lu Sui was not sure what reaction he wanted to see from Shen Qingwu's face, or in other words, no matter what reaction Shen Qingwu made, he was always dissatisfied.
Such as now.
She just said "hmm" calmly, but he tried his best to get a clue on her face.
How could she not care?
In the photo, she showed a protective desire for Lu Yanxing just like before, but she stubbornly refused to call him "brother Yanxing" anymore.
Such deliberate indifference and alienation were like a thorn in the palm of his hand, stinging him all the time.
…
Yanbai Villa.
The reception was held in the garden of the villa, a huge European-style garden with bright lights and fragrant clothes.
The men gathered together to talk about business, and the women were not idle either, chatting in twos and threes about the gossip of the city.
"Did you see over there? The nanny's daughter has been accompanying Mrs. Lu all the time, looking like her future daughter-in-law."
"Isn't that right? Aren't the Lu family all about to marry the daughter of the Shen family? Why don't we see the eldest daughter of the Shen family accompanying Mrs. Lu?"
"It's hard to say whether this marriage will happen or not. Didn't Mrs. Lu strongly oppose them to get the certificate at the beginning? If they insist on having a wedding first and then getting the certificate after having children, what does this mean? Do you need to say it clearly? I just don't like that. Miss Shen, I heard that it will happen this time, but Miss Shen’s father was not invited."
"That's right. Compared with the Lu family, the status of the Shen family is not even close to that of the Lu family. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are completely different."
"Who gave Miss Shen a good life? Young Master Lu has been chasing her for a long time."
"If you can only look at a face, is there anything else she can do?"
"I heard that Mr. Lu is planning to marry the Second Young Master Lu to the Song family. Only someone with a status and background like the daughter of the Song family is worthy of joining the Lu family."
"Mr. Lu is not showing his favoritism. He has found a wife with such a superior background for his grandson. Is Mrs. Lu afraid that she will be jealous?"
At this time, there was a commotion at the entrance.
Lu Sui then appeared with Shen Qingwu, attracting a lot of attention. A group of partners immediately came over and exchanged pleasantries.
Here, the same group of women were chatting and gossiping. One of them, who had been silent just now, was laughing and gloating.
"You see, if you ask me, a good face is still useful. Can you see who can compare with it? The little star brought by Mr. Pei over there is also much inferior. No, Mrs. Huang , your Mr. Huang’s eyes are always looking towards Miss Shen.”
Mrs. Huang wished she could rush forward and gouge out her husband's eyeballs right now, but she couldn't. She was just an ordinary housewife who relied on her husband's charity to survive. Even though she knew that her husband was addicted to women and kept a lover outside, he did not dare to say anything.
She couldn't give up the fine clothes and food provided by her husband, so she could only vent her anger on those young and beautiful women. It was obviously a slap in the face, but she only blamed them for seducing her husband.
"Hmph, with such a foxy look on her face, where does her luck come from? I don't think she can marry into the Lu family."
The other women smiled, stopped talking, and dispersed. Seeing Lu Sui and a group of men walking to the rest area to chat, Shen Qingwu was alone. Some of them who were talking bad about Shen Qingwu just now couldn't wait to go over and say hello to her.
It is not easy to meet these characters on a daily basis, and no one is willing to give up the opportunity to have a relationship easily if they are caught.
Shen Qingwu had been chatting politely and patiently with the ladies who came to greet her, most of them with compliments. When she was feeling bored, Song Si'an suddenly appeared and rescued her.
"A shameless guy."
She hooked her shoulder and led Shen Qingwu forward without saying a word, not forgetting to look back and wink at the group of women, "Sorry, beauties, Mr. Lu is looking for a cleanup at my house."
"Who is she? Why is she dressed like a man?" someone wondered.
Song Sian was originally tall, with bright facial features, and a perfect big-boned beauty. Today she specially chose a men's suit, and her long hair was combed back with hair wax, meticulously. Wearing a loose white suit with clean makeup, she looks free and handsome.
For such an occasion, which woman wouldn't be dressed up in fancy clothes? They had never seen such a neutral dress.
"The daughter of the Song family."
"It seems that I have a good relationship with Miss Shen."
"Brothers are easy to reconcile, but sisters-in-law are in trouble, how can it be better? A family with a big business will fall out sooner or later." Some people are disdainful.
Mrs. Guan, who had just spoken for Shen Qingwu, smiled sarcastically, "That's not certain. I think Miss Shen has a high emotional intelligence and is good at talking. Her gallery is also well run, which shows that she is also a capable owner."
Mrs. Huang disagreed, "Huh, those who buy paintings from her gallery, all of them do it for the Lu family's face. The Lu family's future daughter-in-law must let her earn enough face."
Prejudice can always blind people's eyes, attribute others' excellence to luck, and automatically ignore the efforts of others that exceed ordinary people.
Mrs. Guan twitched the corners of her lips and was too lazy to speak anymore.
Yanbai Villa is a resort resort open only to members. The entire villa adopts European architectural style, which is gorgeous and graceful. Walking around the sculptural fountain in the middle of the garden, you soon came to the door of a Gothic castle.
Song Sian did not take Shen Qingwu to find Mr. Lu, but came to the second floor platform of the castle, overlooking the entire garden.
"My old man and Mr. Lu have even agreed on a wedding date. It will be one month after you and Mr. Lu get married."
The weather is nice tonight.
The moon is bright and the stars are few, and the summer wind is not dry.
Song Sian's voice was not loud, and the breeze blew through his eardrums.
Shen Qingwu's heart skipped a beat. She never thought that Mr. Lu would be so impatient. Even the wedding date was set overnight.
Originally, her night with Lu Yanxing was supposed to be a secret forever, but as a good friend, she felt that she should confess to Song Sian before they got married.
"Sian..."
"Cleaning up..."
The two spoke at the same time, then turned to look at each other and smiled at each other.
"I respect you, please speak first." Shen Qingwu winked mischievously and made a "please" gesture.
Song Sian laughed angrily and argued, "I'm only two months older than you."
"Okay, then if you love children, I'll talk first."
The two quarreled for a while and continued to look at the noisy crowd downstairs. Shen Qingwu put away his smile and took out a pack of women's cigarettes from his handbag. She and Song Sian held each one in their hands in tacit understanding.
Gray fog curls up.
Shen Qingwu said: "Sian, are you really going to get married?"
Song Si'an was silent, but answered the question, "Young Master Lu is very nervous about you."
Song Si'an had just returned to China, and she didn't know that Lu Suizhi and Xu Tian were on the hot search topic, and she didn't know that Lu Suizhi had already cheated on her. He only saw how Lu Suizhi hurried to the police station after her accident last night. , his nervousness and possessiveness can be seen by anyone who is not blind.
She only thought that he was still the fiancé Shen Qingwu said was devoted to her.
After a pause, she continued: "Second Young Master Lu is also very nervous about you."
