Chapter 35: He didn't do it once
Lu Jing came in a hurry, he didn't notice the lipstick mark on his neck, he touched the place where Zang Ni wiped it with a wet tissue, and the cold aftertaste.
"Nini, I'm sorry, there's no next time, I promise."
He smiled awkwardly, deliberately looking away.
Zang Ni ignored him anymore, completely treating her titular fiancΓ© as a ball of air.
This is not the first time Lu Jing has promised him, and it will not be less than three times.
And yet he didn't do it once.
A man's mouth, a deceitful ghost.
She didn't believe every word that came out of his mouth.
After the engagement banquet, Zang Ni wanted to leave, but was stopped by Guan Xinai.
She didn't look back, her tone detached and cold.
"I've already attended the engagement banquet, so there's no reason to stay at the Wen family."
This palatial mansion is surnamed Wen, not Zang, and will never be her safe haven.
Every minute and second of stay at the Wen family is a kind of physical and mental torment for her.
"You can't go yet."
Guan Xin'ai said confidently: "Yuanyuan and Dong'an's wedding is scheduled to be held in three months, in order to ensure the grandeur and perfection of the wedding, we have to start preparing wedding supplies now, you stay and help." β
Three months later, the following spring, their wedding was a good omen.
But Zang Ni didn't understand, and it wasn't her who got married, so why did she help them with these preparations?
She turned to look back at the person behind her, "What if I refuse?" β
Guan Xin'ai folded her hands on her waist and abdomen, played with the gemstone ring on her other hand with her middle finger, and smiled calmly, "You will agree." β
Zang Ni's thin eyebrows frowned slightly, and her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
Guan Xin-ai patiently explained, "I mean, don't you want to see your grandmother anymore?" β
Now the biggest handle they hold in their hands is Zang Ni's grandmother, and every time she threatens her, she feels a dull pain in her heart, and the pain is so painful that she can't breathe.
I can only hate myself for having more than enough strength and not being able to save my grandmother from the dire situation.
Zang Ni's eyes were cloudy, and she clenched her fists, trying to calm her breathing.
Thinking of grandma, the only person in the world who was good to him except for his father, his hard heart was softened in an instant.
She didn't want her grandmother to be hurt in any way, so she had no choice but to stay.
"Okay."
This good word seems to be reluctantly squeezed out from between Zang Ni's teeth.
Her short nails dug deep into the flesh, pinching out a few crimson marks that would not fade away for a long time.
Guan Xin'e raised her chin proudly and sneered disdainfully.
"Recognize your status and don't kick my nose in the face."
Zang Ni didn't say anything, her eyes contained the surging wind and waves, staring at Guan Xin's back without blinking.
At this moment, her dislike for her biological mother reached a new level.
Seeing Wen Yuan, Guan Xin'ai changed her amiable motherly face, and while shaking Wen Yuan's hand, she asked with concern whether she was tired, hungry, and whether she needed to rest.
Although the eldest lady of the Wen family didn't really want to deal with her, even her expression was a little stinky.
After all, she is a stepmother, how can she get into the eyes of Miss Wen, and she will leave it aside after using it without emotion.
Zang Ni looked funny, and the tail of her pink lips raised a beautiful arc.
The evening breeze ruffled her short hair, and a few strands of hair obscured her vision.
A familiar gentle male voice sounded in his ears, "Nini, the temperature is low at night, beware of catching a cold." β
Lu Jing stood behind her with a faint smile on the corner of his lips, his eyes dripping with water.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, they are also a model couple of love.
"Thank you."
The knitted sweater Zang Ni wore was not warm, and the cool breeze blew straight into the clothes, making her body cold, so she was quite grateful to Lu Jing for the jacket sent at the right time.
She lifted her eyes to look at him, "But I have to stay at the Wen family tonight, my sister and Mr. Tan's wedding is scheduled for three months later, and there are many things that I need help with, so I can't go back with you." β
Lu Jing's handsome sword eyebrows furrowed when he heard this, and he pouted: "That's their business, what does it have to do with you?" β
That's to the point.
Zang Ni also wanted to arrest Wen Yuan and Tan Dongan and ask why they needed to help buy items for their wedding, making it look like she was getting married.
"You shouldn't have said that to me."
She shrugged her shoulders and said in a helpless tone, "Because I don't know, that's what my mother told me anyway." β
She now also says that Guan Xin's mother is completely for the sake of her grandmother's face, and when her wings become hard, she will take her grandmother away, and then she will completely cut off the mother-daughter relationship with the woman with a vicious mind.
Lu Jing was dissatisfied: "I'll go to Mr. Tan tomorrow to talk about it, and I'll pick you up when I'm done." β
Zang Ni wanted to ask him which home he was going to take him back to, was it the Lu family, or was it somewhere else?
