Chapter 736: Chapter 733
In the end, it was Lu Xiao who saved the day. After instructing them to set aside the special products, he took everyone out.
Lu Xiao thought for a mont, then said to them, “Look…”
“Boss! You don’t need to say anything; we all understand! We’ll definitely treat today like nothing happened, and the people we saw today like we never saw them!”
Zha Xi quickly said.
Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly. He hadn’t intended to say that, but since they had brought it up, it did seem necessary to cover it verbally.
After all, being low-profile is most important no matter where you are.
And as the son of his father, he really did not want to live in his father’s shadow; he valued his own abilities more.
…
In a famous upscale restaurant in Beijing City,
the environnt was elegant and understated luxury. In a spacious private room, around twenty people were seated.
Wen Xian was chatting with Huo Qi and Little Zaijun.
Perhaps humans are inherently social animals. Wen Xian used to enjoy solitude, but now she has found that being with so many friends, who seldom get together, has an indescribably nice feeling.
Joyful, lively, warm.
The only slight regret she had was that Ga Zhuo was now serving as Captain in Kekexili, Sang Nian had gone to the military for training, and Jin Zhu had gone to college…
Life passes swiftly. In this day and age, if you don’t make an effort to see so people, you may never see them in your lifeti.
She wondered how they were doing now.
Just then, Wen Xian’s phone buzzed. She looked down and saw that her brother had sent her a ssage.
Wen Yu: “Sister, I took two days off. I will co to your wedding.”
When Wen Xian saw this ssage, her emotions were mixed. She asked, “What about them?”
Them, of course, referred to their parents.
Although she had so shadows from her family past, she still cared for this brother, even if she seldom expressed it verbally.
Even though their parents favored sons over daughters, which she resented, Wen Yu was innocent and didn’t share their father’s poor character.
But no matter what, the most important thing was—
Wen Yu knew how to cherish and care about her…
Although she seed “cold-hearted,” that was only on the surface.
She too needed love from her family.
Wen Yu’s text ca through shortly thereafter: “Sister, our father is sick and hospitalized. Mother is with him and won’t co. Mother asked to attend your wedding.”
When Wen Xian read this ssage, to be honest, she felt relieved.
After all, apart from money, there had been little other contact between them for a long ti.
However, sothing crossed her mind, and she still asked, “Why is he in the hospital?”
As for the man who fathered her, she truly didn’t even want to acknowledge him, as the wounds he inflicted on her were indelible for a lifeti.
But she couldn’t help but ask further.
After sending the ssage, Wen Yu was silent for a long ti before finally replying:
“He relapsed into addiction; Mom was covering for him, and I reported it.”
So, to be precise, her father was now in forced rehabilitation.
Upon hearing this, Wen Xian was left speechless.
She shouldn’t have asked, shouldn’t have pried.
In the end, she only replied to Wen Yu, “I’ll wait for you, be safe.”
She didn’t look at her phone anymore. She just felt grateful that she had worked hard enough to climb out of the abyss.
Otherwise, she had no idea what kind of dark and painful life she would be living now.
anwhile, at the restaurant downstairs—
Lu Xiao and Shen Lin stood in a corner on the ground floor.
Shen Lin looked at the man in front of him who was frowning slightly and smoking, and asked,
“What’s the matter, there’s a problem? Didn’t the wedding have layers of security and strict defenses?”
