"Yan Ci, why is she here with you?"
Lu Jingli looked at his brother holding his wife's little niece, and always felt something was strange.
But at this time, he didn't think deeply. He just frowned and said, "The Qiao family has been looking for her. Did you hide her? No wonder the Qiao family can't find her anywhere!"
These words made Wen Ning tremble even more violently, and he subconsciously grabbed Lu Yanci's wrist. Lu Yanci patted her back a few times and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. "
He looked at his eldest brother, and the coldness in his eyes only increased, "Why did eldest brother come to my place?"
Lu Jingli looked at Wen Ning who was still in his arms and showed an obviously unhappy expression, "Let's talk about why she is here first?"
Lu Yanci didn't answer. He held Wen Ning's hand tightly and strode indoors.
After entering the room, he put Wen Ning on the sofa. Just as he was about to straighten up, Wen Ning grabbed the corner of his clothes. His delicate little face was so white that there was no trace of blood. After such a short time, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Just wet the hair on the temples.
She didn't speak, and just looked up at Lu Yanci, with obvious anxiety in her eyes that had not yet regained their clarity.
Lu Yanci gently wiped the sweat on her forehead with his hands, and gently pressed his fingers on her soft lips, "Wen Ning, no one can bully you here."
The voice is very low and deep, with a depth that makes people want to trust it.
Wen Ning seemed to relax a little, but she still grabbed the hem of his clothes and refused to let go. She looked at him with unfocused dark eyes, "Are you going to tell them about our current relationship?"
Lu Yanci looked at her and said in a cold voice, "Do you want them to know?"
Wen Ning shook his head vigorously, breathing a little short, "No, please don't say it, uncle, please don't say it."
Lu Yanci's eyes were filled with gloom, and his tone was a little cold, "Wen Ning, sometimes I really want to pry your head open to see what you are thinking!"
While talking, Lu Jingli came in.
He was quite dissatisfied with Lu Yanci's care and maintenance of Wen Ning, and said displeasedly: "Yan Ci, if you put her here with you, you will have trouble with the Qiao family."
Wen Ning trembled and grabbed Lu Yanci's hand by his clothes.
She lowered her head and stopped talking.
She respected and awed Lu Jingli, and was also a stranger, but she always believed that this nominal uncle would at least not watch her die, but she never thought that one day he would want to disregard her life and death in person.
However, it doesn't matter. My aunt wants to die, so what does it matter if my aunt wants to die?
Lu Yanci glanced at Wen Ning, his face a little unsightly.
He said coldly: "Then watch her die? Watch the Qiao family kill her and send her to prison? Let others bully her?"
Lu Jingli was speechless due to the rebuke, and after a long while he said: "That doesn't mean she will be killed and let others bully her. Although she is not a serious member of the Lu family, there is no one in the Lu family's territory. Dare to hurt her at will."
"Yeah?"
Lu Yanci glanced to the left and glanced at Lu Xue, who had just entered the door.
There was a chill in her voice instantly, "What if the Lu family bullies her?"
Lu Jingli frowned, "Yan Ci, there is no need to ruin the harmony of the family because of her."
Lu Yanci said coldly: "Brother, are you afraid of the Qiao family?"
Lu Jingli frowned and said, "What's there to be afraid of? I just think that Nanfeng Group has a cooperative relationship with Restart Technology. There is no need to completely offend the Qiao family for some insignificant people."
"Irrelevant people?"
Lu Yanci raised his head suddenly and looked at Shen Lanyu, who had just walked over from the corridor, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, "My sister-in-law passed away only a few months ago. Brother, you insisted on marrying Shen Lanyu, her true love, despite everyone's objections. Is the niece an irrelevant person?”
"Or is it that Shen Lanyu has changed from a cinnabar mole to mosquito blood?"
Lu Jingli's expression suddenly changed, "Yan Ci, what do you mean?"
The look in Lu Yanci's eyes was extremely cold, "Wen Ning is an insignificant person to you, but I think she has been in the Lu family for so many years, even if she has been raising a cat for ten years, she should have feelings. "
At this time, Shen Lanyu had already walked over.
With a slightly protruding belly, she looked like a hostess, and just now she was directing two servants to play with a pair of antique vases in Lu Yanci's corridor.
Now that he saw the real master coming back, he calmed down a little. He quickly showed off his sister-in-law style and said with a smile: "Yan Ci is back. Look, it's not warm at all without a woman in the house. According to me, it's better to hurry up. And Luo Ying..."
His eyes suddenly glanced at Wen Ning on the sofa, and he immediately shouted, "Ning Ning!"
Wen Ning stood up, pulled Lu Yanci's clothes, and said with a trembling voice, "Uncle, I want to go back to the room."
At this time, Shen Lanyu had already stepped forward and grabbed Wen Ning's arm, "Where have you been? You have caused such a big trouble, where have you been? You are such a dead girl, you know how to cause trouble at dusk. Come on, follow me." Please forgive the Qiao family..."
Before he could finish his words, Shen Lanyu's wrist was suddenly pinched by a big iron-like hand.
"Ah, it hurts!"
When she looked up, she saw Lu Yanci looking at her coldly. The murderous look in his eyes made Shen Lanyu feel unreasonable fear in her heart.
She was already extremely afraid of this brother-in-law, but now that he was squeezing her wrist so hard that it seemed like he was going to crush her hand off, she couldn't help but be even more afraid.
She backed away in fear.
Fortunately, when she let go of Wen Ning, Lu Yanci also let go of her.
This scene made Lu Jingli a little confused. He looked at his younger brother with a sullen expression, his tone full of reproach, "Yan Ci, she is your sister-in-law after all, and she is still pregnant with a child. Are you going too far?"
Lu Yanci looked extremely cold, "Brother, don't you understand who is my sister-in-law?"
Shen Lanyu's face changed drastically, but she didn't dare to speak. She could only transfer her resentment to Wen Ning and stared at her angrily.
Lu Yanci took a step forward, blocked Wen Ning behind him, and said coldly: "Brother, sister-in-law, there is something I'd better say hello to you."
"Since you don't want to take care of Wen Ning and are afraid that she will cause trouble for the Lu family, from today on, I will take over her studies and life."
He looked at Shen Lanyu with indifferent eyes and said in a very calm voice, "From now on, Wen Ning's affairs have nothing to do with sister-in-law anymore. She is no longer your niece."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt Wen Ning behind him pulling on his clothes and his body was shaking.
He reached behind him, squeezed her soft hand gently, and then let go.
Apparently no one noticed this little gesture.
Everyone was shocked by what he just said.
Especially Shen Lanyu looked at Lu Yanci in disbelief, "Yan Ci, what do you mean?"
Lu Yanci's expression was extremely cold, and his voice was also very cold, "That's what it means literally."
He paused for a moment, and his expression became even colder. "I am just informing you today. I am not asking for your opinions. Please understand, brother and sister-in-law."
At this time, Wen Ning behind him tugged at his clothes and whispered, "Uncle, she is still my aunt."
The frost in Lu Yanci's eyes became thicker, and he looked at the housekeeper who was making tea over there, "Zhang Hua, Wen Ning is feeling a little uncomfortable, take her to the room to rest."
The housekeeper came over and pulled Wen Ning forward. Only then did Lu Jingli and Shen Lanyu realize that something was wrong with Wen Ning.
Shen Lanyu looked extremely ugly and stepped forward to grab Wen Ning, but was held back by Lu Jingli.
It wasn't until Wen Ning's figure disappeared in the corridor that Lu Jingli said with a complicated expression, "She can't see?"
Lu Yanci looked away with a very cold expression, "Yes, I was so stressed that I was temporarily blinded."
He stared at Shen Lanyu and said coldly: "Two months ago, Wen Ning was hit by a bus and flew far away, but she got up and ran away."
Seeing Shen Lanyu's expression getting ugly, the coldness in his eyes became darker and darker, "Three days later, I found her in an old community. She had several broken ribs, one of which pierced her liver. When I found her, her abdomen was swollen and she was almost dying."
Thinking of the scene at that time, Lu Yanci could still feel the bone-chilling chill in his spine. It was at that time that he determined that there must be Wen Ning in this world!
He stared at Shen Lanyu, the coldness in his eyes getting deeper and deeper, "In the three days from Wen Ning's accident to when I found her, my sister-in-law should have known that something happened to Wen Ning, but it seemed that my sister-in-law had not asked a word, even in the past In two or three months, I haven’t asked anything about Wen Ning.”
Shen Lanyu's face turned pale, her lips trembled a few times, but in the end she didn't say a word.
Lu Jingli frowned, "So, are you blaming us?"
Lu Yanci didn't want to explain to them any more, so he looked away with an extremely cold expression, "Since Wen Ning is a burden that my sister-in-law despises and doesn't want, you throw it away and I pick it up, and I will no longer have any contact with you from now on."
His tone was very calm, but there was a sharp warning in it.
Shen Lanyu said with a white face: "That's not the case. I didn't ignore her. It's just that this child has a weird temperament since she was a child. She is not gregarious and always likes to hide secretly. Sometimes she can't find anyone for many days. Later, when she grows up, outside Some people say that her reputation is not very good. I am afraid that she will bring trouble to the Lu family, so I don’t dare to get close to her."
After saying that, she added, "She is still my biological niece..."
"Not anymore!" Lu Yanci interrupted her directly, "Also, I ask my sister-in-law to return Wen Ning's household register and the house her mother left to her."
Shen Lanyu was dumbfounded and stammered: "House, house, what kind of house..."
Lu Yanci's eyes swept across her face coldly. The aura of the person who had always been in power made Shen Lanyu breathless. In just a few seconds, his face turned gray and he forced a smile and said, "Don't tell me." I had forgotten, but this is indeed the case. Before her mother died, she asked me to transfer the house to her when she turned twenty."
"However, this child has made some shady friends outside. I'm afraid that she will sell the house or be cheated..."
Lu Yanci interrupted her directly, "Since she is following me now, my sister-in-law has nothing to do with these matters. Please send the certificate over later, and I will handle the transfer for her."
Shen Lanyu fell silent and pulled Lu Jingli hard.
Lu Jingli wanted to save face, and he didn't take a house seriously. He just said calmly: "Since it belongs to her, return it to her as soon as possible."
He softened his tone and said again: "Yan Ci, we are brothers, and some things can be settled."
Lu Yanci didn't answer, he just walked around them and sat on the sofa.
There is brewed Longjing tea on the tea table, and it is slowly emitting mist.
The mist curled up, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
After a long time, he said calmly: "Brother, why did you come to see me?"
Lu Jingli breathed a sigh of relief and went over to pat him on the shoulder with a smile, "What can I do? You haven't been home for many days. Dad asked me to come over to see you and discuss Xizhou and Xiaoxue's engagement. .”
Lu Yanci took the cigarette case on the table and lit one, but did not smoke. His expression was very cold, "They are the eldest brother's children. There is no need to ask me about marriage."
Lu Jingli didn't understand the deeper meaning, so he sat down and started talking.
In the room, the housekeeper took Wen Ning's home clothes and helped her change into them.
He brought some hot milk and watched her drink it.
After doing this, and just as she was about to go out, Wen Ning stopped her in a low voice.
"Steward Zhang, uncle, are they still talking?"
The butler nodded, "Yes, we are still talking."
Wen Ning's face began to turn pale again, and he said in a low voice, "Did my aunt transfer me to my uncle?"
After getting along with each other these days, the housekeeper felt a little pity for her. Seeing that she seemed very worried, he said softly: "Miss Wen, you are twenty years old and an independent adult. There is no such thing as someone transferring you to someone else." The problem."
Wen Ning clenched his fists and looked at the housekeeper with unfocused eyes, "But my aunt is my only relative in the world."
The housekeeper said: "Family members may not be close to each other, nor may they treat you well. Miss Wen, don't think too much. The mistress will not treat you badly. He can give you whatever you want."
Wen Ning said nothing.
After a while, he said again: "Uncle, do you want to marry Miss Luo?"
The butler had no expression on his face and said coldly: "I don't know about this."
Wen Ning asked again: "When will they get married?"
The housekeeper shook his head, "You have to ask the mistress yourself about this."
Wen Ning stopped talking, groped his way onto the bed, and sat on the bed, lost in thought.
After a while, the housekeeper said, "Miss Wen, if there is nothing else, I will go out first."
Wen Ning said nothing.
The housekeeper was used to her being like this, so he collected the milk cup and left.
As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Wen Ning's voice, "Butler Zhang, I'm allergic to pollen these days, so I don't want to put white roses in my room."
The housekeeper responded and went out.
She didn't notice that there was a person leaning on the corner next to her.
As soon as the housekeeper left, the man quickly entered Wen Ning's room.
