“Then let tell you slowly, okay?” Lu Si looked at her almost pleadingly.
i Feng’s words were still ringing in i Shu’s ears.
i Shu fell silent, unusually refraining from using words to provoke him. Instead, she took a step back, sat on the other side, and awkwardly said, “Well, go ahead then. I’m in a hurry to go back to sleep.”
Lu Si chuckled and sat opposite her obediently. “Shen Yuan…”
As soon as he said this na, he keenly noticed that i Shu’s body suddenly stiffened.
Lu Si smiled helplessly. “I’m not dating her tonight. I ate with her because of my grandfather’s orders.”
In the end, he couldn’t help but sigh. “I was engaged to Shen Yuan, but that was just a joke of my elders when I was young. My grandfather and her Grandpa secretly agreed. Later, the two families didn’t contact each other much, so no one ntioned this matter again. 1 didn’t tell you because even I forgot that there was such a thing.”
i Shu listened quietly, hiding in the shadows, cold and distant, refusing to expose any emotions to him.
Lu Si pretended to move a short distance to her unintentionally and continued to explain, “I just made a deal with her. Although Grandpa didn’t force to marry Shen Yuan, he heard sothing from Lu Yan and seems to be biased against you. The Shen family is in a critical mont and needs connections the most.”
“Shen Yuan promised that as long as 1 accompanied her through this act and let the Shen family survive this crisis, she would personally explain to my grandfather that she didn’t want to marry . And she would also help solve Lu Yan. Then our families will have nothing to do with each other. She won’t hinder the two of us from being together in the future. Grandpa insisted that I go to dinner with her tonight. Can you accept my explanation?”
i Shu didn’t expect Lu Yan to be involved.
She frowned and said, “How is Shen Yuan going to deal with Lu Yan?”
Lu Si was stunned for a mont. He smiled and pursed his lips into a straight line. “Lu Yan told my grandfather about you and him being childhood sweethearts. He even said that he had a crush on you. Under such circumstances, Grandpa won’t agree to us being together. After all, he is my nephew. I can’t be too ruthless, so it’s just right for Shen Yuan to solve him.”
i Shu understood and her face turned cold. “Don’t tell that you asked Shen Yuan to deceive Lu Yan’s feelings.”
Lu Si knew that she had misunderstood him. While explaining in a panic, he sat beside i Shu. “It’s not like that. Shen Yuan has no interest in Lu Yan at all. Although I don’t know what she plans to do, I’m sure of one thing. As long as Shen Yuan still wants the Shen family to develop safely in Lin City, she will never offend the Lu family. My sister-in-law is not easy to fool.”
Thinking of Lu Yan’s mother, i Shu was slightly relieved.
She was so strict and had high expectations for her son. She probably wouldn’t let anyone hurt Lu Yan easily.
It turned out that Lu Si and Shen Yuan were publicly together just to make the outside world think that the Lu family was supporting the Shen family and give the Shen family a chance to make a coback.
i Shu couldn’t bring herself to ask Lu Si to give up this deal.
Because Shen Yuan had once done her a favor.
Even if Shen Yuan really liked Lu Si and ca for him, i Shu couldn’t find a reason to drive Shen Yuan away.
After the matter was explained, i Shu’s tense shoulders relaxed.
She finally found that Lu Si had sat so close to her when she wasn’t paying attention. She imdiately moved to the side in dissatisfaction and scolded, “Then why do you say it’s for ? It’s clearly for yourself!”
“Yes.” Lu Si responded quickly without any intention of retorting. “Of course it’s for . 1 don’t want you to face so many obstacles from your family after you get together with . If 1 like you, 1 will pave all the roads for you and then wait for the day you agree to be with .”
i Shu’s eyes suddenly widened, and her heart was beating fast. It was as if soone had set off fireworks in the sky. They were dazzling, but they were not as attractive as the person in front of her.
“I can wait for that day, right?” Lu Si couldn’t be any closer. Their breaths turned the narrow air moist and hot.
“I…” i Shu’s heart was beating wildly, and he was lost for words.
“Cough, cough.” A light cough interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
Lu Si looked back unhappily, only to see i Yan and i Jing glaring at him.
i Yan took a few steps into i Shu’s arms, put his arms around her neck, and pushed Lu Si away. “Sister is mine! You big liar, don’t even think about abducting my sister!”
Lu Si wasn’t angry. He flicked his forehead with a smile. “Little guy, do you know what abducting ans?”
“I know! It ans to abduct won!” i Yan glared at him, fearing that this big liar would sell his sister away when he wasn’t paying attention!
