269. Yes
As soon as the maid's words came out, Shi Xinlan's face became a little ugly, usually she didn't feel anything, but how to listen to the maid's words today, how harsh.
Wang Zhizhi saw that Shi Xinlan was a little uneasy, she knew that some words had come true, women really knew women best, what she was afraid of, what Shi Xinlan was also afraid of.
For her, Shi Xinlan should not be Lu Qingye's person, at least the two should not be friends.
But before she said this, Shi Xinlan said directly to Wang Zhizhi very seriously: "Don't talk nonsense here, although as you said, I don't know her, but I think she shouldn't be as unbearable as you say, and besides, I know what Changfan is, he won't be out of proportion." β
Wang Zhizhi said: "Xinlan, you can talk nonsense to me." β
Wang Zhizhi didn't say much, she picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and then moved on to other topics, but it was obvious that Shi Xinlan was a little restless after that.
This kind of thing, no matter how smart a woman is, will be recruited, and Shi Xinlan is the same.
Wang Zhizhi sneered in her heart, and the two chatted for a while, Wang Zhizhi didn't stay here for long, but got up to say goodbye to Shi Xinlan, and Shi Xinlan didn't stay today.
After the maid sent Wang Zhizhi away, Shi Xinlan's face suddenly became ugly, she knew what Wang Zhizhi meant by today's words, but she felt that her relationship with Lu Qingye was too close, what she wanted was just to let her stand on her side, although she knew what she meant, but as soon as my words came out, she was inevitably very uneasy.
Then he instructed the nurse on the side, "Take care of the child." She walked towards the room where Lu Qingye was.
When she arrived, she was seeing Huo Changfan talking to Lu Qingye, the body movements of the two were normal, there was nothing to doubt, Shi Xinlan saw this scene, she was relieved, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but mock herself in her heart, but she almost fell in love with Wang Zhizhi's words.
She walked towards the house and called out with a smile: "Changfan." β
When Huo Changfan heard Shi Xinlan's voice, he immediately looked back and said with a smile, "You're here." β
Shi Xinlan said with a smile: "I just chatted with Zhizhi for a while, and I saw you coming, so I also came." β
Huo Changfan smiled and said, "I'll send something to Qingye." β
Shi Xinlan glanced at the table and saw that there were some Western gadgets on the table.
Shi Xinlan looked at it and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" Where did these things come from? β
Huo Changfan said: "I received a few foreigners today, and those foreigners gave it, thinking that Qingye liked it, so I came over to give it to her and was happy." β
The smile on Shi Xinlan's face suddenly paused, Huo Changfan is a careless person, at least they have been married for so many years, he has never given these things to make her happy, even his daughter, he rarely buys toys, let alone made a special trip to deliver these.
Shi Xinlan didn't know why, her heart sank slightly, the smile on her face was slightly stiff, and her voice said with a sarcasm that even she didn't notice: "It's rare for you to be careful today." β
Huo Changfan said: "Okay, I don't have much to do." He glanced at Lu Qingye again, and then walked outside.
Shi Xinlan stood there and watched Huo Changfan leave, the smile on her face gradually weakened, she looked at Lu Qingye with that expression, and she didn't react much, so she said: "These foreigners' things are very novel." β
Lu Qingye was not stupid, and when she heard that her voice was a little different from the past, she explained: "President Huo just asked me some questions about the etiquette of foreigners, and this is what he rewarded me. β
Shi Xinlan said: "So that's the case. β
The voice was slightly cold.
Lu Qingye said, "Sister Xinlan, did you just see Mrs. Mu?" β
Shi Xinlan replied, "Well, I chatted a few words just now. β
At this time, Chun'er came in, holding a small bowl of white fungus lotus seeds, and when she saw Shi Xinlan inside, she immediately saluted Shi Xinlan and called Mrs. Huo.
Shi Xinlan replied, and then found an excuse to leave from here.
As soon as she left, Chun'er also noticed Shi Xinlan's strange appearance, so she whispered, "Miss, how is Mrs. Huo today?" It doesn't seem to be in a good mood. β
Her eyes fell on Shi Xinlan's body in the distance, and she said, "It was originally good, but it changed after going out." β
Chun'er said, "Why is that? β
She sat on the edge of the bed, holding some cosmetics left by Huo Changfan and studying them, she said, "How do I know." β
Chun'er didn't ask any more questions, but put the bowl of chilled white fungus lotus seeds in her hand next to her hand.
Lu Qingye flipped through those things, and gave all those foreigner things to Chun'er, who was ecstatic and naturally happy.
Lu Qingye said again: "By the way, you go to my dresser and bring a purple jade bracelet." β
Chun'er thought she was going to wear it, so she immediately walked over, rummaged in the jewelry box for her, and finally found the bracelet she asked for, Chun'er immediately came over and handed it to her.
Lu Qingye stretched out her hand to take it, looked at it a few times, and asked, "I heard that Granny Zhang was dismissed by the Mu family?" β
Chun'er said: "Yes, thanks to you begging for mercy for her and husband last time, otherwise you would have ended up with Xiang'er and them by now." β
She stared at the purple jade bracelet and said, "It's a pity to be old, give this bracelet to her." β
Chun'er was very puzzled and asked: "Miss, why do you want to be like this, she is Mother Zhang, she used to follow Madame to make things difficult for you, you have picked up a life for her, why do you still give her such a valuable thing now." β
Lu Qingye didn't want to say more, but said expressionlessly: "If you let you take it, you can take it, I heard that she still has a ninety-year-old mother there, and the family situation is not very good, blame the pitiful, save people to the end." β
Chun'er sometimes doesn't understand Miss, why she can be so generous with this thing, as if it is like a pile of broken copper and iron in her eyes, but Chun'er doesn't have much to say, so she can only take the bracelet she handed over, and look at it very heartache, thinking that it is really cheap for the old woman.
After Lu Qingye sat there and watched Chun'er leave, she took the bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup and tasted it, she sneered in her heart, Wang Zhizhi is really good at grasping people's weaknesses.
In the evening, Chun'er came back after delivering the bracelet, and Lu Qingye asked Chun'er if she handed it over to Zhang's mother in person?
Chun'er immediately said: "It was personally delivered to Zhang's mother, saying that you helped her, but you don't know what Zhang's mother looked like when she smiled, and when she saw the bracelet, she almost didn't squeeze her eyeballs out of her glasses." β
Hearing Chun'er describe it like this, she sneered.
Chun'er said it casually, but when she saw that the young lady actually smiled, she looked at her with surprise.
Lu Qingye wanted to smile more and more when she looked at her, so he asked, "What's wrong?" Why are you looking at me like that? β
Chun'er asked in disbelief, "You smiled!" β
It was the first smile she'd ever had seen in so many days.
Lu Qingye said: "Is it so surprising to you? β
She turned around and ignored her anymore, so she walked to the side of the bed and picked up the microphone, and then dialed a phone call, it was an ocean call, and after thinking about the phone a few times, Lu Qingye asked her and Kimura's mutual friend in Japanese, and asked Kimura how he was okay these days.
She and Kimura's mutual friend smiled and replied to her on the phone that Kimura was quite good, and maybe this good was referring to Kimura's physical aspect.
It has been many days since Kimura went back, and during this time, she dialed the ocean phone on time every day to ask about the situation over there, until now, seeing that everything was okay over there, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking in her heart, maybe she was thinking too much, maybe Mu Jingchi invited Kimura over, just to ask her about the relationship with Kimura where it went.
She pressed down her suspiciousness, and inevitably mocked herself in her heart, she was really scared out of the psychological shadow by Mu Jingchi, and now that anything bad happened, she began to doubt his motives.
In the past few days, Shi Xinlan treated her as usual, but there have been some slight changes, she is not as considerate as before, she is very polite, and her attitude seems to be simply when she is a guest in the house.
Lu Qingye naturally knows what the reason for this is, Shi Xinlan can be regarded as an important figure in Wang Zhizhi's social circle, how could she let Shi Xinlan favor her, and Shi Xinlan is a relatively public person, although she is a friend, but it is just a friend, and she will not be too inclined to her.
Wang Zhizhi naturally will not have a sense of security.
According to Shi Xinlan's attitude towards her, Wang Zhizhi must have said a lot of slanderous things in front of her.
Lu Qingye actually felt a little naΓ―ve, but it was often this kind of childish method that hurt people the most, thinking about it, even if she explained it to Shi Xinlan now, it would only make things worse, so she just kept silent.
The next day, Sister-in-law Gui came to Huofu, saying that she came to see her, and asked her when she would go back to live at home.
Lu Qingye knew what Sister-in-law Gui meant, but she couldn't really live in Huo Mansion like this, but let Wang Zhizhi succeed, after all, under the same roof, a few things were a little coincidental, which made people speechless, for Sister-in-law Gui's temptation, she unexpectedly said to Sister-in-law Gui in a soft tone: "He sent me here, how can I go back without his order." β
When Sister-in-law Gui saw it say this, her heart rose a little happy, and he said, "Don't worry about this, as long as you are willing to go back, are you afraid that Mr. will not let you?" β
After all, she asked, "How is his injury?" β
Sister-in-law Gui said: "Mr. hurt his hand, it's not much of a problem." β
She didn't ask any more questions, and was silent again.
At this time, Sister-in-law Gui said again: "Then I will help you go back and ask Mr. now?" β
Although Lu Qingye did not agree directly, Sister-in-law Gui knew that she wanted to go back, so she was naturally happy in her heart, she said: "You wait, Sister-in-law Gui will go back and tell Mr. β
Sister-in-law Gui didn't stay here for a moment, so she immediately left the Huo family and rushed back to the Mu family.
Lu Qingye was actually not sure whether Mu Jingchi would let her go back to the Mu family.
When Sister-in-law Gui arrived in the hall, Wang Zhizhi happened to come down from upstairs, and when she saw Sister-in-law Gui's face full of joy, she casually asked Sister-in-law Gui: "Sister-in-law Gui?" But what's the joy? β
Sister-in-law Gui smiled at Wang Zhizhi and said, "Where is there any happy event, it's just that there is something to tell my husband." β
After Sister-in-law Gui finished speaking, she didn't bother to greet Wang Zhizhi, and ran upstairs, where Wang Zhizhi looked at the back of Sister-in-law Gui rushing to the study, and walked outside without thinking too much.
After Sister-in-law Gui arrived at the study, Mu Jingchi was still dealing with official business, and when he saw Sister-in-law Gui coming, he coughed twice and asked Sister-in-law Gui: "Is there something?" β
Sister-in-law Gui walked in with a smile, arrived at Mu Jingchi's desk and said, "That's the case, sir, I went to Huo Mansion to visit Miss just now. β
Mu Jing didn't have much expression, and flipped through the information of the things under his hand.
Sister-in-law Gui stared at Mu Jingchi's face and said, "Miss seems to have the intention of coming back......"
When Mu Jingchi heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Sister-in-law Gui.
This is not like her style, but she wishes to be as far away from this house as possible, how can she take the initiative to ask to come back.
When Sister-in-law Gui saw Mu Jingchi looking at her, she hurriedly said, "What I said is true!" Sir, I am not lying, I really heard that Mademoiselle meant this. β
When Sister-in-law Gui said this, she said hesitantly: "It's just that Miss is afraid that you won't let her go back, so I rushed back to ask what you mean." β
Mu Jingchi didn't answer Sister-in-law Gui's words, but picked up the phone on the desk in the next second, and then dialed towards Huo's mansion, the phone was not connected, he hung up again, and said to Sister-in-law Gui: "I'll talk about it later." β
Sister-in-law Gui didn't know what this sentence meant, she looked at Mu Jingchi, and didn't dare to ask more after all, so she slowly retreated.
Not long after Sister-in-law Gui left, Mu Jingchi picked up the phone on the desk again, shook the number and went out, almost a few seconds, after answering there.
Mu Jingchi asked directly: "What was the situation in Huo Mansion in those days?" β
Mu Jingchi has been very good for many days, and he no longer asks about the matter over there.
As soon as he finished speaking, the person on the other end of the phone immediately replied, "Everything is normal." β
Mu Jingchi subconsciously frowned and asked, "Is it?" β
Apparently he wasn't quite convinced.
The man said, "Miss looks normal, but Mrs. Huo is a little abnormal, and she is not very diligent in going to Miss's house." β
Mu Jingchi felt a little tired, but when he heard the other party's report, he rubbed his eyebrows and paused slightly, and did not interject, but quietly waited for the person over there to finish.
The other party said: "The situation has changed since the time my wife went to see Mrs. Huo. β
Hearing this, Mu Jingchi closed his eyes, he basically knew it in his heart.
He pressed his emotions and said, "Got it." β
Just as he was about to hang up the phone, the man said, "Sir." β
Mu Jingchi's hand that was about to put down the phone paused slightly, and after a few seconds, he put the phone back to his ear and asked, "What." β
The man said, "I have something to report to you." β
Mu Jingchi said two words: "Say it." β
The man said: "Huo Mansion is now rumored for some reason, Miss is having an affair with Mr. Huo, so Mrs. Huo is wary." β
