Forced Marriage: The Evil CEO Hubby - C208
Without waiting for Xing Yiqiu to turn around and leave, Lu Ruyan’s mother walked in front of her, with a dignified smile on her face, and said with a soft voice: “Miss Xing, are you admitting defeat now?”
Her words were very soft, and the two of them were very close, as if they were trying to pour it out. A trace of provocation appeared in her eyes, and the moment she passed by Xing Yiqiu, she turned her head to the side and the smile on Xing Yiqiu’s face became exceptionally ridiculing.
The woman’s actions stimulated Xing Yiqiu’s thoughts, causing the unreconciled emotions in her heart to multiply by ten times. As she watched the movement of the woman and Lu Juyan, the hand she held at her side tightly gripped the corner of her clothes.
Not allowing Xing Yiqiu’s train of thought to clearly filter out the meaning of what the woman did, he secretly suppressed the expression on his face. She pretended to be indifferent as she walked to Lu Juyan’s side and sat down, as if she was’s woman and Lu Yuqiu’s grandson.
The people from the Lu Family all cast their gaze over, obviously finding the existence of this woman, Xing Yiqiu, a little more inconceivable. Many people who harbored ill intentions were secretly thinking about how to use this opportunity to trip Lu Juyan up. Only Lu Ruyan’s mother had her head lowered, peacefully hugging Lu Ruyan, her lips curling up into a sly smile.
“Eat!”
The Lu Family elders who were thinking of a way to smooth things over knocked on their walking sticks, telling everyone to keep their thoughts at ease. He indifferently looked at Xing Yiqiu who was sitting there with his mind at ease, causing him to faintly become curious about this woman.
During lunch, Lu Juyan was eating leisurely, completely ignoring Xing Yiqiu’s actions, looking straight ahead, and completely ignoring Lu Yuqiu’s sullen aura.
At the dining table, those who harbored ill intentions were especially looking forward to what would happen next. Meanwhile, Xing Yiqiu’s entire body was tensed up, but she still steeled her heart, and stubbornly refused to retreat.
The scene on the stage was full of excitement, it seemed like Lu Juyan was the only one there, floating in the air, a casual and natural person. He secretly remembered those people with ill intentions and decided to pull out the fangs in their mouths one by one when he had time.
“I’m full. Please enjoy.”
Lu Juyan gracefully placed the chopsticks on the plate and raised his head to speak to the rest. He abided by the proper etiquette without the slightest flaw in being mocked by others.
Many people looked forward to seeing their son and son fight, but they did not show it. This made them feel somewhat bored. They all pretended to smile at Lu Juyan and continued to eat their lunch. While Lu Juyan was gone, many people started to fan the flames and sow discord, fanning the relations between father and son.
Lu Yuqiu had long noticed everyone’s deliberate movements, but he glared at Lu Juyan in disappointment, causing everyone to start making a fuss instead. He accompanied the crowd in acting, listening to the essence within, and chose to use it to deal with Lu Juyan.
Taking this chance, Lu Juyan walked into the Lu Family Garden. Originally, he wanted to leave, but he was worried about Lu Yuqiu’s actions.
He kicked the rock under his feet and coincidentally kicked into the still water not too far away, causing ripples to appear on the surface. He suddenly took out his phone and called Xi Ao, then indifferently said: “Find Qu Qing and have her come to the Lu Family, lie about something happening to me!”
“Yes.”
Xi Ao who was currently going through the Jiashi Group documents had a very complicated feeling, he hung up the phone and did not dare to delay any further. Just as he was about to leave, he noticed the important documents on the table. Without saying anything further, he sent the documents to the Vice President’s office. After explaining the situation, he immediately ran away.
He drove to the Yanqing Company building, and told the front desk young lady his purpose for coming. He wanted to ask the other party to report to him. Without waiting for the receptionist to call, Du Yanqing just happened to walk down the stairs. Without another word, he walked in front of Du Yanqing and spoke in a somewhat urgent manner: “Something has happened to Lu Juyan.”
“What happened to him?”
Du Yanqing was shocked, disbelief surfacing from the depths of his eyes. Facing Xi Ao’s open mouth, the worry in his heart spread like a vine. After tightly binding her heart, Xi Ao’s words were like a whip that whipped her heart again and again.
Her thin lips slightly paled, and the uneasy feeling in her heart caused anxiety to surge through her clear eyes. Seeing that Xi Ao did not reply, she subconsciously grabbed onto the clothes on his arm and questioned him again.
“I’m not sure. He hung up before he could finish. Why don’t you come with me to the Lu Family to take a look? ”
After hesitating for a while, Xi Ao pursed her lips and slowly thought of an excuse. Towards Lu Juyan’s deceitful actions, he felt disdain, and could not help but curse in his heart, but he forgot that the person who lied on Lu Juyan’s behalf was him.
, who was already anxious to begin with, did not sense a trace of unbearable emotion that flashed past the depths of Xi Ao’s eyes. He didn’t want to waste too much time, in case something bad happened to Lu Juyan. In her mind, she recalled the change in expression when Lu Juyan left in the morning. The unease in her heart caused her movements to become somewhat unsteady and panicked.
The Du Yanqing who had an uneasy feeling walked to the door, and was almost unsteady because the tip of his shoes knocked against the doorstep. Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Xi Ao quickly reached out his hands to support her.
“Be careful!”
Xi Ao, who was supporting Du Yanqing, spoke out to console him. Noticing Du Yanqing’s unsettled expression, he secretly sighed in his heart. Pulling her by the sleeve, he walked forward to avoid any more harm.
Lu Family, after everyone finished eating their lunch, Lu Yuqiu sensed that Lu Juyan, who had not returned all this time, was giving a look to the butler, and continued to converse with everyone with a obsequious smile on his face. He was very optimistic about Xing Yiqiu, and at the same time, was deliberately treating her well.
The butler walked out of the hall and arrived at Lu Juyan’s usual parking spot and realized that the carriage was still there. He looked around and saw a figure not too far away.
“Young Master, Master wants you to go back.”
The butler instinctively assumed that it was Lu Juyan as he quickly walked over. The closer he got, the clearer the view became. It was only until the two of them were less than a meter apart that they realised Lu Juyan was only one person kicking rocks in the lake as he did his duty and bringing Lu Yuqiu here.
In the reflection of the still water lake, the steward’s white hair at his temples and his white tuxedo made an obvious contrast, causing Lu Juyan to subconsciously look at it a few more times. He turned around to face the butler’s gentle and kind face. Without saying anything more, he walked towards the hall, following the cobblestone path.
