Chapter 226
Xia Shi had never thought that Lu Nanchen, who was known as the cold-faced CEO outside, had such a shameless side.
She always thought that he didn't care at all.
Lu Nanchen looked at the woman beside him and thought carefully that it would be worth it if he could always be with her in the future.
When the sky just turned white, she finally fell asleep.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Lu family was as lively as in previous years.
Many relatives of the Lu family came over to celebrate together.
It's just different from previous years. This year's festival, Xia Shi was retrieved by Lu Nanchen.
Some people who had known about it early had the opportunity to talk about it in private.
They were all talking about how they would make a fool of themselves this summer and how they would please other people.
"I really don't know what Brother Lu thinks. That kind of woman will leave as soon as she leaves."
"Who says it's not the case? Maybe I got involved again."
"..."
It was bustling outside.
in the room.
When I woke up in summer time, the sun was already shining three times.
When she got up, she saw the dress that had been prepared and the luxurious jewelry placed beside it.
She quickly looked away, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
Lu Nanchen had been waiting downstairs for a long time. Seeing that she had not changed into her dress, his dark eyes flashed with surprise.
"I don't want to attend your Lu family's holiday banquet." Xia Shi said straight to the point.
"Give me a reason." Lu Nanchen stared at her.
"Do you still need a reason?" Xia Shi asked.
Lu Nanchen stood up and walked to her: "This year will be different from previous years."
Xia Shi took a step back.
"I do not want to go."
What difference could there be? Are the methods of bullying different?
After not seeing these people for five years, they will have more words to say about themselves.
Lu Nanchen originally wanted to take Xia Shi to the holiday banquet in person today, because after getting married, she once cried and complained: "My husband takes everyone else to various gatherings, but I am always alone."
"Everyone else has someone to protect them, but I don't have one."
But now, he found that his wife no longer needed him to take her to the party.
It seems that he doesn't need his protection anymore.
Lu Nanchen's hand froze in mid-air: "It's up to you."
He walked out quickly with a cold face.
Without Xia Shi, he wouldn't have to deal with those hypocritical and mocking glances.
……
at the banquet.
Li Menghan was chatting with the sisters and kept paying attention when she noticed that Lu Nan had come over but did not see Xia Shi.
The other women were a little curious: "Sister-in-law, didn't you say that the deaf man was back?"
"Why don't you see her coming?"
Li Menghan shook his head: "I don't know either."
"Maybe Nan Chen is afraid of being embarrassed."
She squeezed the goblet in her hand and said, "I have something to go out, so excuse me."
Xia Shi finally came here, how could she let this good opportunity pass by?
After asking the servants and confirming that Xia Shi was staying alone at the place where Lu Nanchen lived, Li Menghan dared to go there.
inside the house.
Xia Shi was studying the map Xiaoyi gave him when he suddenly heard the doorbell.
She quickly turned off her phone, got up and opened the door.
Opening the door, a woman with curly chestnut hair stood at the door. Even though five years had passed, the two of them recognized each other easily.
Li Menghan has not changed much.
On the other hand, in Xia Shi's eyes, in Li Menghan's eyes, she had always been an innocent woman who didn't like to dress up, even a simple woman.
But the Xia Shi in front of her, wearing exquisite light makeup and wearing tailored clothes, seemed to be a different person, with a full aura, completely different from the little daughter-in-law who had been aggrieved and demanding perfection.
