Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Si’s cold eyes glanced over.
Jiang He imdiately shivered, quickly stepped aside, and stood at attention.
After seeing the gentle interaction between Master Si and Miss i for a long ti, he almost forgot about his master’s temper.
There was no one who could interfere with what he wanted to do.
In the front hall.
Shen Yuan finally stopped crying, drinking the tea that Lu Ting had specially ordered to be brewed again, and happily chatted with Lu Ting.
If soone unaware saw this scene, they might mistakenly think that they were a very close grandparent and grandchild.
When Lu Si entered, he only glanced in Shen Yuan’s direction and then withdrew his gaze, walking straight to the other side of the sofa and sitting down. “Grandpa, you called ?”
Lu Ting deliberately put on a stern face. “Do you still know that I am your grandfather? You’ve been in confinent for so many days. Have you figured out when you want to publicly announce the engagent with Yuanyuan?”
At these words, Shen Yuan suddenly beca nervous, sitting up straight. Her pair of affectionate eyes glanced timidly towards the opposite side but lowered shyly when Lu Si looked over.
“I’ve figured it out,” Lu Si answered in a gentle tone.
“What did you say?”
Now, Shen Yuan couldn’t pretend anymore.
She didn’t expect Lu Si to be so easily swayed by her.
“I said, I have already let Jiang Hai pick a good day. I will publicly announce the engagent with you on that day,” Lu Si looked at her fixedly and said.
There was an undercurrent in those eyes, but there was no love that she yearned for the most.
Before she could examine the emotions inside his eyes, Lu Si had already looked away. “Grandpa, 1 have decided to marry Shen Yuan according to your wishes. Can 1 go out now?”
Lu Ting smiled aningfully. “How do I know if you’re not deliberately saying this to appease ?”
He pointed at Shen Yuan. His tone wasn’t overly indulgent, but it could still be considered kind, “This girl just told everything. During the ti you were confined, that girl called i Shu, whom both you and Ah Yan liked, was quite busy. There was a girl being bullied in No.i High School, and she even wanted to bla it on Yuanyuan! Moreover, during this ti, she went to see Kangwei and the Chen family, intentionally taking away two business deals from Yuanyuan.”
Lu Si couldn’t help but curl up the corners of his lips, but considering the presence of the old master, he reluctantly suppressed it. “Chen family and Kangwei used to be business partners with the Shen family, right?”
“Now, only the Yu family is left,” Lu Ting suddenly beca stern, “Since you said you’ve figured it out, why not take this opportunity to express your position in front of your fiancee? Let see your determination.”
“I understand.” Lu Si said, “Jiang Hai, inform the Yu family. If they dare to sign a contract with the i family, it ans they are against the entire Lu family.”
“Yes.” Jiang Hai received the order and imdiately went to carry it out.
Jiang He, on the side, looked dumbfounded.
When Lu Si initially agreed to marry Shen Yuan, he firmly believed that this was a delaying tactic by Young Master Si. But now, Young Master Si had gone to such lengths to help Shen Yuan deal with i Shu!
Could it be that Young Master Si really intended to fulfill the old master’s wishes and marry Shen Yuan as the future Mrs. Lu?
But how was this woman deserving of it!
Even if he was ignorant of what happened outside, just listening to the old master’s words, he could guess that during this ti, the one who had been scheming and manipulating things outside was Shen Yuan!
She obviously couldn’t compete with Miss i and could only co to the old master for help when she was desperate!
Truly despicable!
Jiang He was so angry that he ignored Lu Si’s glare and quietly circled behind Shen Yuan and, taking advantage of the mont when no one was paying attention, discreetly put sothing from his pocket into her clothes.
At first, Shen Yuan was still talking to Grandpa Shen when she suddenly felt sothing crawling on her back.
This realization imdiately made her hair stand on end, and her face turned visibly pale.
“Miss Shen, are you suddenly feeling unwell?” Jiang He asked with feigned concern, diverting everyone’s attention to her.
Sweat stood out all over Shen Yuan’s body. As soon as she ca into contact with the concerned gaze of the old master, she was scared to the point that her scalp tingled. “No, I’m fine. I’ll go to the restroom for a mont.”
“Wait a mont.” Lu Si, having seen Jiang He’s actions just now, wouldn’t let her run away easily. “You haven’t told why the police would investigate you for what happened to a classmate in i Shu’s school.”
Shen Yuan maintained a polite smile on her face, but inside, she was seething with anger.
“How would I know? It’s precisely because it has nothing to do with that 1 feel wronged today. i Shu has treated as an enemy because of you. Before that, we were still good friends.”
She spoke with a sense of regret, as if she truly treasured the friendship with i Shu.
The old master was about to console her with compassion, but unexpectedly, Lu Si persisted in his questioning.
“I think the police wouldn’t randomly suspect you just based on i Shu’s words. When the police co to the Lu family later for questioning, I hope you can answer their questions honestly.”
“Ah!” Shen Yuan scread as soon as Lu Si finished speaking, standing up from the sofa..
