"I really didn't think about it, it's just a meal, and besides, even if I don't invite you, you have to have lunch!"

"I don't care who you are, if you dare to be unfavorable to me, Lu Yan will definitely not let you go."

As if he had heard some funny joke, Lu Shen couldn't help but chuckle, "Are you sure?" ”

I gritted my teeth at dusk.

"Miss Shi, I said, you can really consider me, I promise, if anyone dares to hit your idea, I will definitely kill him."

When he said this, Lu Shen gushed out a terrifying murderous aura all over his body, and a pair of amber eyes were churning with coldness.

Shi Duwan couldn't help but shudder, his eyes were too gloomy, as if he really had human life on his hands.

As if sensing her abnormality, the smile on the corner of Lu Shen's mouth became more and more intense, but in Shi Duwan's eyes, he was like a demon crawling out of hell.

"You're afraid of me?"

"I, I didn't, besides, I'm afraid of what you're going to do!"

Obviously scared, but still pretending to be brave, Lu Shen slowly hooked his lips, what an interesting little woman! Ah Yan, are you angry if I take her away from you?

He suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Shi, it's here, get out of the car!" ”

Shi Duwan was stunned, realizing that her emotions were completely under his control, and she couldn't help but be upset.

Walking in all the way, Shi Duwan found that there was no one inside, you must know that this time is a high stage of dining.

"I wonder what Miss Shi thinks of here?" Lu Shen gentlemanly helped her pull out the chair, "I'm afraid that someone will make a noise during the meal, so I asked people to wrap this place." ”

When he said this, he didn't show the slightest smug expression, obviously doing such things often.

Shi Du was not in the mood to talk, sitting quietly in the dining chair, she always felt that this man was not simple.

She didn't talk, and Lu Shen wasn't angry.

"The foie gras and fish roe here are good, Miss Shi will try them in a while."

"Sir, you're just looking for me to treat me to this meal?" And it's a very expensive lunch.

She had come to this restaurant with Su Ran once before, and it was four or five hundred per person, but it must cost a lot to cover the entire restaurant during the peak period of dining like him.

"I have to admit that Miss Shi is very beautiful, but I don't like to force others, especially a beautiful young lady like Miss Shi."

Listening to this man's flattering words, Twilight didn't feel any pride at all, but it made her feel uneasy.

She lowered her head, and her small hands on the dining table clenched into fists vigorously, and after a while, Shi Duwan narrowed her eyes and said calmly: "Mr. has won the award." ”

"That's the truth. By the way, Miss Shi, my surname is Lu, and I have the same surname as your husband Lu Yan. ”

……

After coming out of that Western restaurant, Shi Dusk had a sense of absurdity as if he was in a different world, his whole body was cold, and a thin layer of cold sweat oozed from his back.

She had been standing in the sun for several minutes before she came to her senses and quickly picked up her mobile phone to call Lu Yan.

When a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, Shi Duwan reacted, she subconsciously wanted to hang up, but heard the man ask her, "Something?" ”

She wanted to say that she made a mistake.

However, Shi Duwan found that she didn't even have the strength to speak, and in order to overcome her fear of Lu Shen, she almost lost her strength.

"Twilight, how are you?"

Seeing that she hadn't squeaked for a long time, Lu Yan suddenly became anxious and couldn't help but raise her voice.

Shi Duwan squatted down on the spot, held her arm with one hand, and whispered, "I'm fine, I'm ......" At that moment, her eyes were red and tears were falling down.

"Where are you? I'll pick you up. ”

Lu Yan said suddenly.

Shi Duwan was stunned for a moment, forgot to shed tears for a while, and hurriedly refused: "No need, I just want to ask you, when will you go to Shi's house with me?" ”

"It's late in the evening, and I don't want to say the same thing a second time."

His tone was already a little irritable.

Twilight bit the corner of her lip and told the man on the other end of the phone where she was.

"You wait for me, twenty minutes at most."

……

I hung up the line at dusk, and just squatted quietly in place, not going anywhere.

The warm sunlight filtered through the cracks in the branches, and the dappled halo fell on the ends of her hair, on her shoulders, on her eyelashes...... Her skin became fairer and fairer.

When Lu Yan arrived in the car, Shi Duwan stood in the shade of the tree with her head down, her eyes kept staring at her toes, and those subtle dazzling sunlight fell on her.

For a moment, his heart trembled slightly, and he hurriedly opened the car door and walked towards her.

As if hearing the familiar footsteps, Twilight subconsciously raised his head, and at a glance saw the man walking against the light, like a handsome god from the Nine Heavens.

Lu Yan frowned, his words stopped, and all the words were gathered into one sentence: "Let's get in the car first!" ”

With that, he pulled the door open.

Twilight glanced at him and walked in, not noticing that his hand was lightly placed on top of her head as she had leaned over her as before, for fear of bumping into her.

Originally, after separating from Su Ran at dusk, she was going to find a birthday gift for her grandfather, but who would have thought that it would not take long for her to meet Lu Shen, and a lunch would take all her time.

"Grandpa's birthday present, I haven't prepared ...... yet"

Shi Duwan lowered her head and bit the corner of her lip, she really didn't have the face to say this.

Lu Yan couldn't help but purse his lips when he heard this, and said solemnly: "Didn't you say that you came out to buy gifts today?" ”

"Plans can't keep up with change."

That's what she thought, but it backfired, and now there is not much time left before the birthday party, and there is no time to buy gifts.

Seeing her depressed look, Lu Yan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, with a smile in her eyes, her broad palm covered her forehead, and then rubbed it gently.

Even the smile between his eyebrows was so similar as it had been so many years ago.

Shi Duwan was slightly stunned, and subconsciously wanted to avoid the big hand he stretched out, but the space in the carriage was limited.

He smiled, a little smug, "I knew you would be like this, so I was ready." ”

Evening: ......

Impressed?

Since that incident, he had become disgusted with her, disgusted with her, and had become difficult for her, and for so long she had become accustomed to his indifference and cruelty. But all of a sudden, he started to be nice to her again, which made Twilight completely unable to resist his transformation.

Because she was afraid, afraid of missing him, and then she would feel like she was going to hell.

Shi Duwan pursed her lips and smiled, and said very seriously: "How much?" I'll give it to you later. ”

Lu Yan's face changed in an instant, and he was so gloomy that it seemed that a storm was coming in the next moment.

After a while, he said in a cold voice: "I also call Old Man Shi Grandpa." ”

Well, Twilight was stunned for a moment, then bowed her head and fell silent.

The birthday banquet of the old man was held in the Shi family's villa, and the people who could receive the invitations were all people who had many years of friendship with the Shi family, and some were friends of the Shi family's son-in-law Li Feng in the business field.

At this time, all kinds of luxury cars were parked outside the Shijia villa.

Lu Yan parked the car in an empty seat, and Shi Duwan immediately opened the car door, but she didn't think that she had just gotten out of the car when a man in black who seemed to have been waiting for a long time walked towards her.

"Miss Shi, this is what my boss asked me to bring to you, and my boss also said that he was honored to have lunch with Miss Shi." The man in black stuffed the things in his hand to Shi Duwan and said with a glance.

Looking at the rectangular brocade box in his hand, Shi Duwan couldn't help frowning, why is it him again! What the hell does he want? Twilight stepped forward, trying to return the thing.

But he didn't want to be dodged by the man in black, "Miss Shi, my task has been completed." ”

"You ......"

Shi Duwan bit the corner of his lip lightly, and suddenly felt that the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" in his hand was very hot.

Lu Yan walked to Shi Duwan's side, and naturally saw her cold face, as well as the rectangular brocade box in her hand, and an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness welled up in her heart, "What's the matter?" ”

She was stunned, turned her head, and looked at the man next to her quietly, he clearly knew that man, why did he hide it from her? What's the problem? Or do you think she doesn't have the right to know?

"Nothing!"

Shi Duwan temporarily concealed Lu Shen's affairs.

Lu Yan's eyes were slightly dark, and the gaze that looked at Shi Duwan revealed a bit of deep meaning, he could see clearly just now that the brocade box in her hand was handed to her by a strange man.

He didn't deliberately expose her, "Since it's okay, let's go in quickly." ”

Shi Duwan slowly flexed her fingers hard, and just a few steps after she walked out, she suddenly stopped, turned her head, looked at Lu Yan with a cold and noble face, and asked, "Lu Yan, aren't you curious about what is in it at all?" ”

"Not curious."

It's so well packaged, and it happens to be sent at this time, won't the answer be revealed in a while? What he has now is patience to do things, especially waiting.

Shi Duwan smiled, didn't say anything more, and strode towards the villa hall, Lu Yan's mobile phone rang at this time, so he didn't go over with Shi Duwan.

Li Zhong, the housekeeper of the Shi family, saw Shi Duwan who appeared alone, and immediately blocked her out, he didn't dare to mess up the things that the second lady had explained, and he would have to rely on the second miss in this family in the future. So, he said without humility or arrogance: "Please show the invitation!" ”

Shi Duwan was slightly stunned, the gaze in his eyes suddenly sank, and he immediately hooked his lips sneeringly, and glanced at Li Zhong with a smile, "Steward Li, why don't I know that I need an invitation when I go back to my own house, I see my own grandfather!" ”

She curled her red lips and smiled mockingly, her glass-like eyes glowing with coldness.

"I'm sorry, Miss, this is the rule of our family now!"

Li Zhong said with a smile, I thought that Lu Sanshao would accompany her back on this kind of big day, but I didn't expect her to be alone, it seems that those rumors outside are not false at all.

Shi Duwan snorted coldly, and was about to say something, but he heard a cold voice suddenly sound: "Steward Li, how come I don't know when your Shi family has made such a rule!" ”

Lu Yan walked over, stretched out his hand to take Shi Duwan into his arms, lowered his head and whispered in her ear.

Then Li Zhong was stunned for a moment, a trace of horror flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he was a little panicked for a while, what is going on? How did Lu Sanshao end up here?

"Three, three less, why are you here?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Zhong couldn't wait to slap himself in the mouth, how could he have no status in the Shi family at dusk, but Lu Sanshao was different, in the entire Jiangcheng, there were few people who were willing to offend the Lu family.

Lu Yan smiled suddenly, his blade-like gaze swept over Li Zhong's face, and said coldly: "It's really not a small cowardice, even the eldest lady of your own family has to make things difficult, such a servant has already been kicked out of our Lu family." ”

Li Zhong's face turned pale when he heard this, and he looked more than ten years old in an instant.

Seeing the stunned look of the girl in his arms, Lu Yan smiled, raised his hand, and rubbed the fever affectionately, with an undisguised pampering look in his eyebrows.

He deliberately quipped: "Silly girl, what are you still doing in a daze!" Didn't you just tell me in the car that you hadn't seen your grandfather for a long time and missed him so much? Could it be that now you are close to homesickness again? ”

Shi Duwan sighed in her heart, glanced at the man next to her without a trace, and suspicion flashed in her eyes, did he take the wrong medicine?

"I'm really happy and stupid!"

Lu Yan chuckled, hugged her slender waist and walked inside.

Those people who were used to eating were successfully frightened by the scene in front of them.

The three young people of the Lu family are the figures standing in the clouds in Jiangcheng, the leaders of the younger generation, and the most legendary figures in the business community of Jiangcheng in the past ten years, there is no one.

"Who is that woman? Why haven't you heard of it before? And looking at the relationship between Sanshao and her, it doesn't seem to be simple at all. ”

"Didn't you hear Sanshao just now? That woman is the eldest lady of the Shi family, but isn't the eldest lady of the Shi family Li Yuman? Li Yuman, I have seen it, it is definitely not the woman just now, if it was Li Yuman, then the housekeeper would not stop her. ”

"You don't know that! Ten years ago, there were two young ladies in the Shi family, but later the eldest lady was sent to the Lu family for foster care, so after a long time, no one knew that there was another young lady in their Shi family. ”

"Listening to your explanation, I guess there will be a good show at home tonight."

……

No one is blind, nor is he a fool, so Steward Li's attitude towards Shi Duwan obviously represents the position of some people in the Shi family, but now the eldest lady has Lu Sanshao's support.

For Steward Li's troubles, Shi Duwan didn't expect it, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing impossible, for the servants of the Shi family, she was an out-of-fashion eldest lady who was an outsider, and she had no status in the Shi family, let alone the right to speak.

Seeing that the evening was silent all the way, Lu Yan's mind sank slightly, and a cold glow quickly passed through the depths of his eyes.

He chuckled, rubbed the back of her head with his broad palm, and asked, "Sad?" ”

Shi Duwan's heart jumped, as if she remembered something, she subconsciously avoided the side, but she didn't want to be pulled into her arms by a strong arm again, and his deep voice sounded in her ears: "This is the Shi family, is it possible that you want them to know that I am not good to you?" ”

"You!"

Twilight glared angrily.

It's just that such a look falls in the eyes of someone with a heart, but it becomes an interaction between lovers.

Lu Yan smiled very heartily, and the big paw unceremoniously climbed on top of her head, and said with a smile: "That's how to be good, keep up the good work, and continue to maintain." ”

Twilight choked and didn't want to speak again.

In fact, she really wanted to scold him, why haven't you broken your habit yet!

Although the status of the Shi family in Jiangcheng is not as good as that of the Lu family, they also have their own network of contacts, especially after the old man Shi retreated to the second line, under the careful drilling of his son-in-law Li Feng, the strength of the Shi family has reached a higher level.

The villa hall of the Shi family is full of guests, and Li Yuman, as the only lady of the Shi family in the eyes of everyone, has been out of the limelight today, changing her arrogant and domineering attitude in front of the evening of the time, becoming long-sleeved and good at dancing, and chatting and laughing with a group of female dependents.

As for Li Feng, the second male owner of the Shi family, he stabilized his position on this day.

Shi Guoliang is already old, and the Shi family will fall into the hands of Li Feng sooner or later, and in the end, the Shi family will become the Li family.

When Shi Duwan took Lu Yan's arm and walked in, Li Yuman happened to see it clearly, and at that moment, her eyes were almost on fire, and she hated Shi Duwan to burn her to death on the spot.

If she hadn't used such despicable means, how could Brother Yan have married her?

"Yuman, what's wrong with you? Look at your face is a little wrong. ”

Zhang Li, the girl next to her, asked with concern.

Li Yuman was slightly stunned, and immediately showed a gentle smile, quietly stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Shi Duwan, and deliberately joked: "Who told me to see Sanshao just now?" Aren't they here now? It's just that there is someone next to him. ”

The girls immediately followed her gaze, and the moment they saw the twilight, they all showed jealous looks.

"Yuman, who is that woman? Do you know each other? ”

"She is my sister, however, I have had a bad relationship with her since I was a child, she is scheming, and she is very shameless, and she will do everything to be with Brother Yan."

Li Yuman laughed extremely sarcastically, eager to let all the women present regard Shi Duwan as a thorn in their side.

Zhang Li is a master, and when she heard it, she understood that there was a story, and hurriedly asked, "Yuman, is there something going on here?" Otherwise, how could outsiders not know that there was a young lady in the Shi family? ”

"When I was fifteen years old, she pushed me into the swimming pool, I almost drowned in it, and then my grandfather took the initiative to send her away, it just so happened that my grandfather was Grandpa Lu's old subordinate, and I don't know where Grandpa Lu heard the news, and then asked my grandfather to foster her to Lu's house."

When he said this, Li Yuman suddenly stopped, and there was a strong jealousy surging in the depths of his eyes.

"And then? Yuman, what happened later? ”

"Later, in order to be with Brother Yan, she drugged Brother Yan's wine, Brother Yan is a very responsible man, and finally had to marry her."

"I see! No wonder I never knew that there was such a person in the Shi family, this kind of person is really shameless. Yuman, don't worry, she is her, you are you, and we will not alienate you because of her. ”

Hearing this, Li Yuman couldn't help but sneer in his heart, does Miss Ben need your approval? Be polite to you, and really take yourself as a thing.

Zhang Li naturally didn't know what Li Yuman was thinking, she was still thinking about how to breathe a sigh for Li Yuman!

Besides, Lu Yan is also her male god, the male god is in trouble, how can she stand by and watch! Of course, I want to find an opportunity to humiliate the twilight.

Here, Shi Duwan and Lu Yan had already walked towards Shi Guoliang, but Shi Duwan no longer had a brocade box in her hand, and she was unwilling to accept a gift from a strange man after all.

Especially if it's such a valuable gift.

"Grandpa, granddaughter wishes you a long life than Nanshan and a blessing like the East China Sea."

Shi Duwan's face showed respect and dependence, the old man in front of her was the only person in the Shi family who protected her, if this old man left one day, then the Shi family had nothing to do with her.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Yan also said respectfully: "Grandpa, grandson-in-law wishes you all the best, every year has today, and every year has today." ”

"Sister, today is grandpa's seventieth birthday, you shouldn't come here empty-handed, right?"

Li Yuman pretended to be surprised and said.

Shi Duwan's face changed instantly, and she just wanted to say something, but when she heard her grandfather Shi Guoliang smile lovingly, she said happily: "Yuman, don't say that, I'm already very happy to be here tonight." ”

In the evening of this obvious protection, Li Yuman snorted coldly in her heart, gritting her teeth in anger, but her grandfather spoke, and she could only swallow this breath temporarily.

However, she wants to see if she really has the face not to bring a birthday present to her grandfather.

"Grandpa, I ......"

Shi Duwan just wanted to say something, Lu Yan on the side lightly touched her arm, Shi Duwan couldn't help but be stunned, turned her head, and looked at the man beside her calmly with suspicious eyes.

Lu Yan hooked his thin lips, showed a mysterious smile at her, and then said very seriously: "Grandpa, today is your seventieth birthday, how can I not prepare a gift with Wanwan!" However, this gift will be a little later, so please be patient for a while. ”

Shi Guoliang is also a human spirit, how can he not see that Shi Duwan does not know anything about this matter.

He laughed loudly and said, "Since it is a gift carefully prepared by Ah Yan and Wanwan, what if I wait for a while?" ”

Lu Yan lightly curled his eyes, the corners of his mouth hooked up an imperceptible smile, and even the doting color in his eyes was hidden by him deeply, and no one could see anything unusual.

He pulled Shi Duwan, who was still in a daze, to the side, and gently pinched the tip of her nose with his slender fingers, and said angrily: "Still in a daze? ”

Shi Duwan seemed to be frightened by him, and subconsciously wanted to take a few steps back, but remembered that she was not in Jinyuan now, but in Shi's house. So, she steadied her body stiffly, looking a little coquettish and dissatisfied, but with shallow joy.

"I didn't."

She kept her head down and her voice was soft.

Seeing the hot cheeks of the girl in his arms, Lu Yan's heart jumped, and the blood all over his body seemed to be a flood that burst the embankment, roaring in all directions.

For a moment, he wanted to rub her into his arms, and then declare to everyone that she belonged to him.

"By the way, what kind of gift did you have for grandpa?"

Shi Duwan asked with a frown.
