Lu Jiyuan, however, had no intention of talking to Yi Jiu.
His eyes fell on Sheng Wantang, and her delicate face showed loss and confusion.
Like an abandoned, homeless little animal.
Sheng Wantang had been distracted until he was almost in front of the Maybach before he suddenly came back to his senses and met Lu Jiyuan's leisurely gaze.
He didn't leave.
It was more like he was sure that she would come down soon and was waiting for her.
Ten minutes ago.
As soon as Sheng Wantang walked to the door of the ward, he was blocked by Lin Zhi who was standing in the corridor for some air.
"Why are you here?" Lin Zhi looked Sheng Wantang up and down with disgust in her eyes, "You come to the hospital dressed like this, where's your face?"
Sheng Wantang glanced at the dress she had not yet had time to change into, and explained: "I just finished attending an event. I put spare clothes in the ward and will change in a while."
Lin Zhi could always pick out the thorns, "Come to the hospital after you're done playing and show your filial piety in front of the old lady?"
The anger in Sheng Wantang's heart grew stronger and stronger. Even if Lin Zhi was unfilial to her elders, she still made such malicious speculations!
Before Sheng Wantang could speak, Lin Zhi pulled Sheng Wantang to the door of the ward and motioned to Sheng Wantang to look inside through the glass of the ward.
In the ward, Mrs. Sheng was lying on the bed, surrounded by Sheng Kun and several younger members of the Sheng family. She looked sick but had a smile on her face. She was obviously very happy to have relatives come to visit her.
Such a satisfied smile was something Sheng Wantang had never seen on Mrs. Sheng's face during this period of time when she was taking care of her.
"See? Relatives are relatives, and outsiders are outsiders." Lin Zhi arranged her hair and said, "Sheng Wantang, you are not from our Sheng family, nor are you the granddaughter of the old lady. You are not needed here. Before you come,
The old lady is still asking why her precious granddaughter Yueyue didn't come to see her."
My precious granddaughter Yueyue...
Sheng Wantang's heart felt cold.
Does grandma know that it was Sheng Mengyue who caused her half-leg to enter the gate of hell this time?
Does she know that Sheng Kun refused her medical treatment?
"Yes, I am indeed not grandma's granddaughter." Sheng Wantang asked with an indifferent expression, "But when grandma got sick and had an accident, where were you so-called relatives?"
"It doesn't matter where we are. What matters is that we are her relatives connected by blood. Sheng Wantang, recognize your own identity!"
Sheng Wantang stared at Lin Zhi's hypocritical face, took a deep breath, and tried to control his anger that was about to get out of control.
"Let's go! They are all relatives of the Sheng family, and it's not suitable for you to appear. I think you don't want the old lady to be embarrassed because of you, right?" Lin Zhi mercilessly issued the eviction order.
If the relatives of the Sheng family knew that Sheng Wantang took care of the old lady's illness and paid for a doctor, but they did nothing, their saliva would drown them!
Therefore, Sheng Wantang must not be allowed to go in now!
…
Sheng Wantang didn't know how she got out of the hospital.
Mrs. Sheng's smile kept appearing in my mind, and Lin Zhi's words echoed:
[See? Relatives are relatives, outsiders are outsiders]
[The old lady is still asking why her precious granddaughter Yueyue didn’t come to see her.]
Indeed, even if she always regarded Mrs. Sheng as her own grandmother, she respected and filial piety.
But after all, she is not from the Sheng family.
Sheng Wantang saw Lu Jiyuan as soon as he came up and felt embarrassed for a moment.
She longed to come back, but she left so quickly and dejectedly.
The man put out his cigar, opened his thin lips slightly, and said, "Do you want to get in the car?"
Sheng Wantang hesitated for two seconds, nodded, and opened the car door.
There was silence in the carriage.
Unless necessary, Yi Jiu rarely spoke actively and tried to reduce his sense of presence, while Lu Jiyuan had always been cold-eyed and reserved, and cherished words like gold.
Sheng Wantang looked out the car window at the busy traffic and people, feeling a little cold.
"I just went upstairs and saw people from the Sheng family, so I went downstairs." After a while, she took the initiative to explain her behavior.
After all, there was an explanation. After all, I still took Lu Jiyuan's car.
Lu Jiyuan didn't speak, as if he didn't hear him.
Yi Jiu suddenly realized.
The fourth master asked him to inform Mrs. Sheng’s close relatives to visit the hospital. His love is waiting for his wife here!
My wife was tricked by the Fourth Master and she didn’t even know it.
Yi Jiu felt a little sympathetic to the landlady.
Probably because people's psychological defenses are lowered at night, Sheng Wantang talks a little too much unconsciously, "Lu Jiyuan, is blood relationship really so important? Why am I not considered grandma's relative?"
Her tone was such that she didn't even realize she was wronged.
Lu Jiyuan reached out and pinched the woman's pretty chin, forcing her to look at him for a few seconds.
He put his fingers together, patted Sheng Wantang's face gently, and said slowly:
"Mrs. Lu, the person in the hospital is not your grandma. Before you find your blood relatives, your only relative is me."
…
After not returning to Silver Moon Manor for nearly a week, Sheng Wantang felt a little unfamiliar when he came here again.
The Sheng family is not where she belongs.
But here, neither.
Sheng Wantang returned to her room to take a shower, and suddenly remembered that the deal between herself and Lu Jiyuan seemed not to be completed yet.
She hasn't given him her bargaining chip yet.
——She doesn’t want to owe any favors.
——Just like she did to the Sheng family.
She looked at herself in the mirror for a few seconds and changed into a nightgown.
In the study room.
After Yi Jiu finished today's work report, he added: "Sir, there are several bosses who have met you at the auction tonight. In addition, your big deal tonight should make people at the old house suspicious of you."
Lu Jiyuan didn't care, "You have money, why can't you spend it?"
Yi Jiu immediately said: "Of course not."
I’ve never seen you spend money in such a high-profile way before!
Lu Jiyuan knew what trouble it would cause from the moment he decided to take Sheng Wantang to the auction.
However, if you doubt, doubt.
Those fools haven't gotten suspicious after all these years, it's time to give them a sense of danger.
Prey that are afraid of danger and fight back are interesting!
"Knock knock knock!"
After the knock on the door, Sheng Wantang's voice came: "Lu Jiyuan, can I come in?"
Yi Jiu got Lu Jiyuan's order and went to open the door.
"too--"
The other person was stunned for a second and quickly lowered his head in avoidance.
Sheng Wantang had just taken a bath. She was naked but had a pretty face. Her black hair was half wet hanging on her shoulders. She was wearing a white bathrobe. The silk bathrobe outlined her exquisite curves, making people's eyes twitch.
Yi Jiu felt like a light on his back. Even with his back on his back, he could feel the boss's sharp gaze that could penetrate him.
"Sir, if it's okay, I'll leave first!" Yi Jiu was afraid of being poked in the eyes, but when Lu Jiyuan didn't say anything to stop him, he hurriedly left the scene.
Lu Jiyuan stared at Sheng Wantang with a sinking face.
Sheng Wantang realized something was wrong with her. She scratched her hair in embarrassment and explained: "The servant said you were in the study, so I came to find you... I didn't know Yi Jiu was there, and
I'm wearing everything I need to wear."
Lu Jiyuan's expression did not soften at all.
Are you proud of wearing everything you should wear underneath?
