The Shen family's old house is located halfway up the mountain. Mrs. Shen's health is not good. Although she is not 60 years old and is well maintained, she cannot withstand the abuse. She rarely attends banquets and spends most of her time recuperating in the old house.
Lu Xixin prepared some gifts. Since she was in a hurry, she didn't have much time to spend on gifts, so she prepared some gifts for the public, which were valuable and not rude.
The old house of the Shen family had long known that Shen Jiayao was coming back. There were people guarding the gate. After entering the gate and passing through several intersections, they were greeted by people.
Lu Xixin calculated the distance in her mind. From the gate to the main entrance of the house, the distance was 1,000 meters, which showed how big the Shen family was.
It is said that housing prices in Haicheng are high, and the price of a room in a good location is more than 100,000 square meters per square meter. Shen Jiayao's house covers an area of at least 2,000 square meters, not counting the yard scenery and other areas.
Moreover, this place is not only a large house where Mrs. Shen lives, but also smaller houses around it, which are the residences of other members of the Shen family. All in all, it should be a complex of buildings.
It's really wide.
Arriving at the main gate of the main house, a grey-haired butler in a tuxedo stepped forward to open the door with one hand behind his back.
When Shen Jiayao came down, he bowed first, with a respectful attitude and meticulous etiquette. Even the most picky person could not find any fault.
"Uncle He." Shen Jiayao nodded to the housekeeper, then walked over in person and opened the door for Lu Xixin.
Seeing Shen Jiayao's actions, the butler's expression flashed with subtle surprise. He didn't expect that the young master could be so meticulous and thoughtful. He had almost watched the young master grow up, and had never seen him care so much about a woman.
Uncle He, who has been a housekeeper for many years and has met countless rich and powerful people, has already developed a delicate heart. With just one action, he could see Shen Jiayao's attitude towards Lu Xixin.
He restrained his previous indifferent and distant attitude, and his cold face suddenly became kind, smiling, like a kind and gentle elder, making people feel close to him.
He also bowed to Lu Xixin with a respectful attitude.
Shen Jiayao introduced: "This is Miss Xixin, my fiancée."
When he heard the word fiancée, the butler's eyelids raised and his eyes darkened.
His appearance remained unchanged as he welcomed the two of them in, but somewhere where they couldn't see, his expression suddenly changed.
This is going to happen! When will the young master get a fiancée?
The old lady has already found a good candidate for the young master.
Thinking of how much the old lady valued the charming guest, the housekeeper felt deep sympathy for Lu Xixin. Although this Miss Xixin looked much more beautiful, had a good temperament, and seemed to have read a lot of books, such a girl was easily caught.
Plenty, not scarce at all.
The charming guest that the old lady values is very impressive.
I heard that she is related to the national treasure-level miracle doctor Gu Shen. The two have a deep relationship. The ancient doctor treats Jiao Ke as his own granddaughter. He not only came to Haicheng to treat the old man of the Lu family in Haicheng for her, but also gave away the precious Dahuan Dan.
Just two as a gift.
One was given to Mr. Lu, and the other one was given to the old lady by Jiao Ke.
The old lady who received the Great Return Pill was extremely happy and loved Jiao Ke very much.
Not only that, that Jiao Ke is also a young lady from Haicheng's wealthy Lu family. According to rumors, the Lu family's aunt will hand over all the property to Jiao Ke in the future.
Tsk tsk tsk, it’s really amazing. He has talent, looks, wealth, and a huge cheat like a miracle doctor.
This Miss Xi Xin was really pushed into the mud and couldn't even catch up with her.
Lu Xixin held Shen Jiayao's arm, and as soon as she stepped through the door, she heard laughter and laughter in the living room. She was stunned for a moment, and then she heard a familiar female voice.
He raised his eyes and met Sheng Yanran's smiling eyebrows.
She sat next to Mrs. Shen, with a smile on her face, but the look she looked over was full of pride and sarcasm.
Sheng Yanran was obediently next to Mrs. Shen. She looked like an elegant and noble socialite on the outside, but her eyes were extremely malicious. The arrogance inside was undisguised and she was looking directly at Lu Xixin.
It seems that he is waiting to see her show off.
It doesn't matter if Shen Jiayao cares about her. No matter how much a man likes a woman, he can't give everything for her. Family and interests are what he needs to consider more.
Today, Sheng Yanran is going to slap Lu Xixin in the face and let her know what it means to have someone outside the world. What if she is the biological daughter of the Lu family? She has been raised outside for 18 years. Her etiquette is not good, her elegance is not enough, she has neither money nor
Human resources.
She only deserves to be used as a stepping stone!
Originally, Sheng Yanran didn't hate Lu Xixin that much. She just felt that she was in the way, so she kicked her away. In the eyes of the arrogant and domineering Sheng Yanran, Lu Xixin was not considered a number one figure at all, but just a clown who could be manipulated at will.
If it gets in the way, I'll just kill him without caring.
But two days ago, Lu Xixin, a despicable person, actually broke her arm, which made Sheng Yanran extremely angry!
She has never suffered such a loss since she was a child. Today she must pay back the capital with interest, let Mrs. Shen slap Lu Xixin in the face, and let her watch Shen Jiayao scold her and completely destroy everything about her.
!
Sheng Yanran, who had prepared everything, was waiting proudly to see Lu Xixin's shock and horror.
I want to see her lose her composure.
However, Lu Xixin's eyes didn't stay on her at all, he just glanced past her lightly, seemingly not noticing her at all.
In an instant, Sheng Yanran's expression turned chapped!
There is nothing more irritating than ignorance and indifference!
Sheng Yanran was so angry that her heart ached, and there was a gloomy energy running rampant inside. Who the hell is Lu Xixin? He dared not be her. He should have ignored her instead.
Seeing Shen Jiayao, Mrs. Shen was very happy and couldn't help but said angrily: "You still know how to come back. I thought you would forget about my old bones."
Shen Jiayao led Lu Xixin to sit elegantly on the sofa opposite, and then replied with a smile: "Mom, the guests are all here, give me some face."
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "If you want me to save face, why don't you come back and look at me more often?" After saying that, she took Sheng Yanran's hand beside her and introduced her warmly: "This is Miss Yanran, and she is Qiu, the aunt of the Lu family."
Lan’s daughter.”
After saying that, he turned to Sheng Yanran: "See, that's my Jiayao. You young people should get along well with each other."
In his expression, he completely ignored Lu Xixin, as if he didn't see her, treating her like nothing.
Sheng Yanran lowered her eyes and smiled, joy flashing in her eyes.
Shen Jiayao saw the relief on Sheng Yanran's face, and a coldness flashed in his eyes. He squeezed Lu Xixin's hand tightly, suddenly raised his eyes, and said in a cool tone, but with an undeniable force: "Mom, this is Lu Xixin
Xin, my future wife."
Hearing this, Mrs. Shen frowned. She had deliberately ignored Lu Xixin before just to let her retreat and not seek humiliation. She didn't expect that her son would undermine her.
The old lady was unhappy and just about to speak, she was interrupted by Shen Jiayao.
"Mom, you're not that old yet, but why are your eyes so blurred that you can't even see people clearly?" His tone was joking, but when he heard it, it felt like a bone-chilling chill in his ears.
Mrs. Shen was suddenly startled and raised her eyes to look at Shen Jiayao.
She seemed to see Shen Jiayao who had just returned from the bottom of the cliff five years ago, as if he had returned from the underworld, with a bone-chilling coldness all over his body. It seemed that just one look at him would cause him to be burned by the coldness on his body.
Mrs. Shen's hands shook, and she immediately turned to Lu Xixin, and spoke in a gentle voice: "This is Miss Lu, what a beautiful girl."
Hearing this, Sheng Yanran's expression dimmed and she looked at Mrs. Shen in disbelief, extremely shocked by her attitude.
Doesn't she dislike Lu Xixin? If she wants to ignore her, why does her attitude change in just a moment?
