Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Love Rivalry Without the Smoke of Gunpowder

【Fengyun Reading Network. 】 Peace of mind has always been refreshing. After deciding to go abroad, you will start to prepare for some related procedures. It's been busy for a few days, but it makes her feel a lot more comfortable. At least find a catharsis for a clogged heart. Don't always worry about Cheng Yan.

Peace of mind I don't know if this is an escape. She only feels that whether it is Beijing or Shanghai. Everywhere is full of the breath of Cheng Yan. Full of memories of the two. Stay like this again. She's really going crazy.

Cheng Yan has been staying at Anjia for the past few days, accompanying An An and being busy. I was initially shocked to learn that she was going abroad. But in the end nothing was said. The long-term tacit understanding allows the two to know each other's hearts without opening their mouths. Pity. Two people who are so heart-to-heart can't become dependents after all. This must be the saddest thing in the world.

That's pretty much it. Before leaving, Anxin decided to go back to Beijing to visit his grandfather. After all, this has really made them bear a lot of hearts for a while. Cheng's side is also bound to make a trip. Otherwise, Cheng Yan will not be easy to deal with.

But in the past few days, the two have gotten along again. Still laughing and squeezing each other. On the surface, it seems like nothing has happened. But the parties know it in their hearts. Even Hao Lei and Enron could feel it. The state of mind of the two is long gone.

After all. Once experienced. There will always be traces.

Since Lu Chenxi's identity was exposed. Her life has also changed dramatically.

Lu Yuhui and Lu Sheng's father Lu Tianxiang have a very close relationship. Lu Yuyi's childlessness has always been something that Lu Tianxiang is worried about. Now suddenly the daughter is back. Lu Tianxiang is also very happy for his brother. He regarded his lost niece as a pearl in his hand. Anxious to clear her name.

So. She is now at the center of the conversation of the National People's Congress. A man of the day. Lu Chenxi, who was already well-known in school, will be criticized by his classmates wherever he walks in the school.

She turned a deaf ear and didn't care. I've been talked about since I was a child. Mom told her: never waste your mind and energy for something unworthy and unworthy. Don't care too much about other people's opinions. Man lives for himself. Just be happy.

What's more. If she was ashamed of her status as an illegitimate daughter before. Now she is proud of being Lu Yuyi's daughter. She originally refused to call Lu Yuyi's father. Insist on continuing to call him Master. First, I don't want to be sorry for my sister's love for her. The second is that I don't want to put my mother in an embarrassing situation. But for the sake of Cheng Yan. She didn't care about anything.

Love is indeed insane. Lu Chenxi smiled bitterly. Compared to everything Cheng Yan did for her. Her dedication is really nothing. In fact, his move was not all to give the Lu family an excuse to help the Cheng family. Also for yourself.

She knows all too well what it's all about. For a big family like the Cheng family. The combination of himself and Cheng Yan is just that as Cinderella, he is fortunate to be favored by the prince. Once the lucky sparrow flies on the branch and becomes a phoenix's old-fashioned plot.

Lu Chenxi doesn't want to be the Cinderella that people envy but don't recognize. She hopes that her relationship with Cheng Yan can be built on an equal footing. And the identity of the daughter of the Lu family is the successor of Cheng's enterprise. The two will become a match made in heaven.

It's okay to say she's proud. Vanity or not. That's the reality. There is no need to whitewash anything.

Cheng Yan left for several days. During this period, she called her from time to time to report the progress of the matter. Speaking of peace of mind when deciding to study abroad. Lu Chenxi had to admit that he was relieved in his heart. But at that moment, her heart was filled with an unprecedented sense of guilt.

She suddenly realized whether she meant it or not. She really played the inglorious role of a third person. She hurt an innocent girl she had never met. This feeling. It's uncomfortable.

Lu Chenxi sat in the corner of the restaurant by the window. Looking at the photos sent by Cheng Yan on WeChat on his phone. Lu Chenxi looked at it for nearly ten minutes. Her heart was full of doubts. Why would Cheng Yan refuse such a beautiful fiancée and insist on being with her.

The excellent genes inherited from the mother plus the suitors who have surrounded him since childhood. Lu Chenxi is very confident in his appearance. Although he is not a national posture. It's also beautiful. Can face the peace of mind on the photo. She knows what it means to be temperamental and beautiful.

Those big smart eyes and deep sockets, straight nose bridge. Live off a little Audrey Hepburn. Especially the waist-length jet-black hair. Draped over your body simply and casually. It also adds to the demeanor of everyone's ladies.

Maybe it's because I haven't seen her speak for too long. Half-loud, Cheng Yan sent another message: "Don't be fooled by her appearance. This is the best woman she ever took. In fact, she is a woman".

Lu Chenxi smiled slightly. Take a closer look. Sure enough, the person in the photo is standing in a regular manner. can not hide the playfulness between the eyebrows. Haven't met yet. Lu Chenxi was full of curiosity about Anxin. What kind of girl is she makes Cheng Yan love and hate. It also makes Brother Lu Sheng like it so much that he can't stop it.

"Hello. Are you Lu Chenxi?" Lu Chenxi looked away from the photo. Raising her head, there was a very "handsome" girl standing in front of her. The short hair with neat ears looks very stylish. The black and white clothes are even more refreshing and excellent. Lu Chenxi's eyes lit up. A stunned, a bow, and a look up. This person is not Anxin who is.

Seeing her reaction, Anxin knew that she hadn't recognized the wrong person. Glancing at the photo on her phone. Brushed the hair off his head. Naughty said, "I don't recognize it. Freshly cut short hair. Isn't it like a tomboy?"

Her relaxed tone eased Lu Chenxi's embarrassment. Lu Chenxi smiled and got up and beckoned her to sit down. "No. Very handsome. Miss Ann, please be seated."

An Xin said jokingly while greeting the waiter: "Girls don't want to be called Miss these days. Just put me at ease."

A "delicate" looking waiter came over to order food and happened to hear this. I couldn't help but laugh.

Feel free to open the menu handed by the waiter. He doesn't lift his head. teased: "Brother. You're so handsome when you smile."

The waitress blushed instantly. I held back for a long time and said "thank you, thank you".

An Xin continues to tease the shy male waiter. Lu Chenxi found it very interesting. It was the first time she had seen a girl who could tease a man so seriously. The waiter's face is swollen and red. My heart is beating hard.

Enough of playing with peace of mind. Chong Lu Chenxi smiled sweetly. Asked, "What does Dawn want?" Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

Lu Chenxi's heart warmed by her affectionate call. Smiled and shook his head. Said: "It's all good. Whatever you want."

Peace of mind." "Smack" and looked at the menu for a long time. smiled and said to the waiter: "Handsome guy. Please serve us two servings of crayfish."

The waiter was pardoned. Ran away with the menu.

Lu Chenxi and Anxin looked at each other. They all laughed in unison.

"It's not the first time you've done this." Lu Chenxi asked with interest. She was also very strange about this feeling. Facing this girl who has never met before. It's as if she's known her for a long time. I've always been slow to warm up and I'm willing to take the initiative to talk to her.

Anxin is a little embarrassed. Frankly: "It makes you laugh. Every time I see a man with long lips and red teeth and white teeth standing in front of me, I can't help but want to break him."

"He doesn't care." Lu Chenxi lowered his eyes slightly. Asked.

"He. . . You say little words. He usually dislikes me. But sometimes when the mood comes, it will tease people with me. I once met a man with an orchid finger that was particularly motherly. The two of us were talking like cross talk. As a result, I cried to others. Aggrievedly said that they had been married for two years. The children are all there. Is a standard straight man. The whole restaurant burst into laughter."

"And then."

"And then. Hum. The beginning is comedic. The result was tragic. Cheng Yan and I were kicked out by the restaurant owner. He threatened never to let us into that restaurant again." Anxin said unconvinced.

"You've never been in again?" Lu Chenxi didn't believe it. According to Cheng Yan's temperament. Definitely the first reaction is. Why?

"How is that possible. Why? Is it like opening the door to do business and keeping customers out. After that, Cheng Yan and I cheekily went every once in a while. Later, I became friends with the owner.

Cheng Yan has always been heartfelt and heartfelt to his friends. He is a student of management. My family runs a restaurant again. It is to give him advice and to introduce customers. Help him make his business bigger and bigger. Here. This store is one of his chains."

Peace of mind said that the clouds are light and the wind is light. Lu Chenxi listened but sighed.

Mention Cheng Yan. The two of them suddenly fell silent unconsciously.

"Actually, you can take the initiative to ask me out. I was quite surprised. I never thought about it. One day I'll be in a bloody love triangle. I never thought I would be the loser in this bloody romantic drama." Peace of mind smiles bitterly.

Lu Chenxi said uneasily and guiltily: "I'm sorry. It was I who ruined the relationship between you and Xiao Yan. I hate third people the most in my life. When Xiao Yan chased me, I already knew that he had a fiancée. But he said your marriage contract was just a joke of the parents. Do too many to count. I don't know how either. The demon made him slowly agree. During that time. He was so good to me. My sanity is gone. It's like crazy."

Seeing Anxin staring at her. Lu Chenxi didn't shy away. Meet her eyes to see through herself. "I'm sorry. No matter how I argue it. I'm an out-and-out junior. I was wrong."

Lu Chenxi's heart swelled with a painful sense of shame. She didn't know how she had the courage to sit here naked and accept the criticism of her rival.

Take a deep breath with peace of mind. Shake her hand with relief. Said softly: "Dawn. You don't have to blame yourself. Don't be so embarrassed as you say. I love Cheng Yan and have nothing to do with you. He was right. He never admitted that I was his girlfriend. And never said they liked me. He didn't lie to you. You're not a junior. What's more. In a relationship. Only the rest is a third party."

"Peace of mind" Lu Chenxi was about to say something. The waiter arrived belatedly with two plates of oversized lobster. Flatteringly said to Anxin: "Eat slowly. The boss personally called and said that he would give the two of them a free order. If you want something else, just ask. It's all on the boss's account."

Anxin raised his eyebrows at Lu Chenxi. He also said to the waiter politely: "Boss Sun is really arrogant. Then we're welcome."

The waiter nodded flatteringly, and the cat was about to leave. Anxin said: "Wait a minute. Brother. Next time I want to sue for trouble picking me when I'm not there. Now I know it. You're not going to be fired." Anxin speaks a rather pretentious Shanghainese. The waiter's face was red and white.

Anxin saw that Lu Chenxi was amused by himself again. Slightly relieved.

Put on your gloves and start peeling lobsters." His lobsters are famous. You taste it."

Lu Chenxi followed her example and nodded in praise while eating. Peace of mind is very well taken care of. The atmosphere is very harmonious during the mealtime.

An An while stuffing lobster meat into his mouth. While saying, "When you come. Xiao Yan Rory begged me not to be difficult for you. How horrible I am."

Anxin smiled disdainfully. But I did have a bad track record before. Xiaoyan is enlightened early. When I was a child, I knew how to flirt with little girls. I went to junior high school and high school with hormones. Girlfriend has never stopped. Also one is more beautiful than the other. I'll come one by one. Never scared.

He doesn't care. Those charming girls ran to him and cried. He can coax and coax. If you can't coax it, you can divide it. Never nostalgic. Ruthlessly. Later I found out that he didn't really like those girls. Just play. Also to me off. I was really angry at first. But then I didn't get angry. He's not serious. Why should I be angry about a non-existent threat?"

Lu Chenxi's heart sank when he listened. Everything for Cheng Yan. She knew very little. The first twenty years of their lives were spent in different places. Each has its own joys, sorrows, and sorrows. It was not her who accompanied Cheng Yan in those green years. It's peace of mind. It's his childhood sweetheart.

"Peace of mind. In fact, Cheng Yan cares about you very much. Even if I don't want to admit it. You weigh so much more in his heart than I do. If I want to be with him, I have to face the fact that you will always be in his heart. I'm not even sure. Will one day he wake up? I found out that I was nothing more than a passerby in his love. Just like the other women who have appeared in his life before. Maybe one day he'll find out. Actually, the person he really loves is you."

Lu Chenxi's words struck the heartstrings of peace of mind. If that's the case. How nice it should be.

"It's not a secret. I've told myself this in my heart a thousand times. Whenever another woman appears next to him. I went crazy with jealousy. But he still gritted his teeth and told himself. Don't worry. Wait until he's had enough. He'll come back to me."

Anxin's voice choked. I've been thinking a lot about it these days. I finally understood. Even if I wait for him for another 20 years. He still won't be with me. It's not that you don't want to love. It's love that wants to love but can't come. The two of us know each other too well. Do you think that two people who have been bathing in a bathhouse with a bare ass since childhood see each other as the opposite sex. At least when he saw me. There was never a feeling of a pounding heartbeat."

"Love does require passion. But the bloom of passion is short-lived. After the passion, it may be transformed into family affection. Or maybe it's ruthless." Lu Chenxi groaned. Aren't men like that? But she has this confidence. Let Cheng Yan fall in love with her for a lifetime.

"Cheng Yan won't. As long as he is willing to love. It's going to be a lifetime." Anxin said firmly.

The two men looked at each other and smiled.
