Chapter 273
Old Lady Jin frowned at the news.
“Didn’t they give up looking back then?How did you find it again?”
Mrs. Sham waved her hand.
“Forget about it, I’m afraid Old Guan doesn’t have much time left that way, I guess people are approaching, or they don’t want to leave themselves with regrets.”
Such a topic was too heavy, and we were all silent for a moment.
In the end, it was Jenny who broke the mood.
“Like it’s going to be dinner, right?Grandma, I’m going to check the back kitchen.”
Mrs. Sham nodded.
At lunchtime, the Guan family side heard that Master Jin and his wife had returned and brought someone over.
The old man of Guan is naturally inconvenient to come over, after all, the body is not good, so just Guan Ji Ming with a few younger generation over, also can be considered to say hello, Guan Xuefei as the only girl in the younger generation, naturally also included.
Not only them, even Lu Lanzhi, who usually rarely returned to the Lu mansion, was also back.
As soon as they entered the door, they began to shout and pull Guan Xuefei and Old Mrs. Jin to chat with them.
Mrs. Cen had one pair of children in her life, and her son died young, which is considered to be a gray hair.
She should have been nicer to this only daughter, but she really didn’t like her frightening personality, so she didn’t warm up to her.
Lunch, naturally, was something we all stayed to eat together.
The food was well cooked, with all sorts of dishes, and Lu Lange helped the old lady serve everyone together.
When choosing a seat, I don’t know if it was intentional or unintentional, pulling Guan Xue Fei to sit next to Biden Lu.
“Ah Shen ah, you haven’t been back to Kyoto for a long time, we all miss you, Xue Fei is also, has been busy with work, you guys say you are old friends, even for a long time you haven’t sat down together to talk properly for a while, today give you a chance to have a good chat, that Jenny, you shouldn’t mind, right?”
She said, while looking provocatively at Jenny.
The others at the table died of embarrassment at the sight of it.
As Jenny was about to speak, the old lady was unhappy: “Lanzhi, what are you arranging there blindly?Where do you have Schäfer sit there, and where does that Jenny sit?”
Lucius gave a fake fishy smile.
“Jenny can sit next to me, it’s just as well I haven’t spoken to Jenny in a long time.”
“Nonsense!”
Seeing that the old lady was about to get angry, taking into account the presence of other Guan family members, the Guan and Lu families are friends of the world, it is not good to hurt the harmony over such a small matter on such an occasion.
Jenny smiled indifferently, “Grandmother, it’s okay, I heard that Miss Guan and Ah Shen are high school classmates, it’s quite good to sit together and catch up, isn’t there a seat here?I’ll just sit here.”
She said, sitting down on Biden Lu’s left hand.
The old lady saw this and it took her breath away.
Mrs. Kwan was a little embarrassed, but didn’t stop it in the end, just smiled apologetically.
“Old lady, you see, the boy is too ignorant.”
Old Mrs. Cen was unable to say anything, so she could only smile politely as well.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, classmates, it’s only right to be on good terms.”
The matter is closed and the feast begins.
During the banquet, under Lu Lanzhi’s instructions, Guan Xuefei kept looking for Biden Lu to speak to her, although she was a bit squirmy.
Although Biden Lu’s attitude had been somewhat aloof, he couldn’t stand the fact that Guan Xuefei was too stubborn.
One topic vs.
If the party doesn’t pick it up, let’s say one more.
Among other things, Lucian and Mrs. Kwan also helped out.
Not to mention Biden Lu, even the bystanders could see what was going on.
The old lady Cen’s eyebrows were almost wrinkled into a Sichuan character, but the old man Lu didn’t see anything, he is a big man, has never paid much attention to these small children’s affairs, only to find the atmosphere between a few young people today a bit strange, but did not think much of it.
Old Lady Jin, on the other hand, was a bit indignant in her heart.
How is this Luke boy like this?
It doesn’t hurt to keep a beautiful daughter-in-law in the house, and she’s still getting into trouble.
Where have all the tutors in this Guan family gone?
Going to someone’s house for dinner and being so intimate with the man of the house in front of his wife, do you have any manners at all?
Alas, it was her fault for looking for her grandchildren late.
If it had been earlier, we might have been able to catch up with Jenny earlier, so that Jenny wouldn’t have to suffer all this anger here.
Old Mrs. Jin was distressed as she comforted Jenny.
“Here, Jenny, you eat this, this fish is delicious, and it’s also a beauty treatment.”
Jenny even took it with a smile, “Grandmother Jin is too polite, I should be the one to clip it for you, but I’ve made you work hard.”
“Might as well, I’ve been best friends with Old Sham for decades, and I’ve long since made this place my home, so don’t be offended.”
“Of course not.”
After a polite round of you and me, Jenny looked to the side again, but saw that Guan Xuefei was saying something to Biden Lu.
They were in an intimate position, and half of Michelle Kwan’s body was almost leaning towards him.
The v-neck jumper reveals a delicate collarbone, if hidden, and if people who don’t know look over, they can only feel that the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, very well matched.
Xu noticed Jenny Jing’s gaze, Guan Xuefei she smiled, “Jing you like to eat sea squirt, you can eat more tonight.”
Afterwards, she took a sea squirt from the plate and placed it on the plate in front of her.
Jenny Jing raised his eyebrows, his face unchanged.
She didn’t know where Seifer Kwan had heard she liked sea squirts, but she was allergic to seafood and never ate them.
As I was about to excuse myself, I saw a woman sitting across from me laughing, “Eat, eat!I heard you grew up in Visterdem?It’s not far from the sea over there, but it’s still technically considered an inner sneak city, so it’s not always possible to eat such a good sea squirt, so it’s a good day to try it.”
“Yeah, these are the only ones, and they’re the ones Schäfer brought over!If you try it and you like it, ask Scherfig to get you some every now and then later, she’s got a way of doing it anyway.”
Jenny tugged lightly at the corners of his mouth, the words of rejection suddenly not wanting to be said.
Her beautiful eyes turned and she said in a faint voice, “Good.”
Then put the bowl of sea squirt aside and said, “Thank you Miss Kwan, I’ll cool it for a while and eat it.”
Guan Xue Fei saw this and said nothing, turning her head to continue to chat with Biden Lu.
In fact, when it comes to chatting, she’s basically the one talking, and Biden Lu occasionally returns a hmm, and then there’s no more reaction.
“By the way, my brother’s back today too, you know?”
This time, Biden Lu finally reacted and looked up at her, “I know.”
“He should have contacted you, shouldn’t he?And yes, you’re so close, I’m sure he’ll tell you when he gets back.”
Guan Xue Fei thought about it and said, “Tonight he and Xie Snap went to Di Jin together, before I came over, he called me and asked me to come over later and sit down, can we go together?”
Chapter 274
Biden Lu frowned.
“I’m not available.”
“It’s so late after dinner, do you have any business?”
Biden Lu didn’t answer her this time and only gave a faint hmmm.
Jenny didn’t eat much and was soon full.
When she left the table, I don’t know if it was intentional or unintentional, but Guan Xuefei smiled at the silky untouched sea squirt on her plate and said, “Miss Jing forgot to eat this.”
Jenny touched his stomach and smiled sweetly, “It’s forgetful, but unfortunately I’m full now, otherwise I could still eat.”
Afterwards, he put the sea squirt on the land jingxian’s plate.
“Ah Shang, will you help me eat this?This is something Miss Guan brought back from Hainan especially, so don’t waste it.”
Biden Lu nodded and mmmed.
Guan Xuefei’s expression instantly stiffened.
Lu Lanzhi’s face sank, and she opened her mouth to say something, but was stared back at by a glance from Old Lady Cen beside her.
Jenny Jing saw this, and only then did he turn around and leave in satisfaction.
After dinner, Biden Lu went to the study to talk with the old man, the old lady and a group of ladies chatting in the living room, Jenny Jing’s phone suddenly rang, so he went outside to answer the call.
The call came from her assistant at Anning International, Xiao Chen.
Although she’s no longer in charge of Serenity International’s affairs, the position is still hanging there, just no longer sitting in on shifts, so if she does encounter any problems, people can still look to her for help.
Everyone also now knows that she is the titular boss’s wife and is therefore willing to listen to her.
As soon as the phone was connected, I heard, “Sister Jenny, there is a case now, it’s rather complicated, I can’t handle this side, do you think it’s convenient for you to listen to me?”
Jenny nodded, “Convenient, go ahead.”
So Chen told her what happened.
This time, it was an artist named He Chengjun under Anning International who had an accident.
To say this He Chengjun, she didn’t know him, but she had seen him before.
For no other reason than that he’s a two-year old traffic high or low that’s just become popular.
Microblogging has five to six million followers, and has acted in several costume idol dramas, the face value is quite able to play, but the acting is not good.
She didn’t know much about the guy, only that he was a huge fan and often ripped on.
However, this He Chengjun is also always spreading gossip, almost once a film, and there was a time when it got fishy, kind of tearing up all the actresses he worked with.
This time it was because he was photographed going in and out of a hotel with a certain mysterious female capitalist in the circle.
Others have picked up photos and intimate videos of him with the female capitalists on his Twitter account and in one of his former friends’ circles.
To make matters worse, the other husband is now also aware that he is in the process of divorcing the woman and wants to use this to make a big deal out of the divorce so that he can get a bigger piece of the pie.
Because the other party was now like a rabid dog, biting at He Chengjun.
On the other hand, if He Chengjun’s side couldn’t handle this matter, it could almost be said that his future would be ruined.
After hearing the whole story, Jenny only felt that he really should have said something.
You deserve it!
If it weren’t for the fact that there was so much invested in this artist in the early stages, and that the life and death of the artist sometimes often determined the life and death of the group of people who followed him, she wouldn’t want to help him right now at all.
Jenny thought about it, thinking that this matter involved the capital circle, it was not good to be alone
Making decisions, you still have to ask Biden Lu first.
So they told Chen to take it easy for a while, and then call her after she asked.
Only then did Xiao Chen agree to a thousand thanks.
After hanging up the phone, Jenny looked at the time, estimating that Biden Lu and the others should still be talking about something at this moment.
This matter in general is not a big deal, not in a hurry this moment, so they did not bother them, decided to take a walk alone in the backyard to eat.
The backyard is filled with expensive flowers and plants, and a stone pathway winds through them, flanked by a variety of fragrant flowering trees, giving it a unique flavor.
Jenny was walking slowly on the stone road by himself when he suddenly heard a quarrel from ahead, like a man and a woman arguing.
She was curious and didn’t walk over towards the source of the sound.
“How could you do this to me, Sheffield?I went back to Kyoto despite everything for you and almost got set up to get killed, so why are you breaking up with me now just by saying that?”
“Enough!I warned you to stay away from me!What does it have to do with me if you misunderstood what happened before?”
“Sheffield, how could you, how could you say such desperate things?”
Jenny felt that the voice of the man who had been calling Xuefei was somewhat familiar, picking up a piece of branch and leaf to look over, but he was shocked.
He Sung-kwan?
How could it be him?
He actually knows Cheryl Kwan?
Thinking about the case he had just heard about, Jenny was curious.
Only under the sunlight, He Chengjun’s face was thin and pale, and he had been holding onto Guan Xuefei’s hand, which he was impatient to get rid of.
“He Sung-kun!I told you I don’t like you!I was just bored with you for fun, don’t you understand?Don’t blame me for being rude to you if you continue to dwell on this!”
“Sheffield…”
He Chengjun started begging again, nothing more than some words like I love you so much, why did you leave me?
Jenny shook his head even as he listened, this idiot, from the rumors, should be a very smart person ah, why is he so stupid?
The kind where people are clearly using him as a tool and throwing him away after using him, and he thought they were sincere.
Although she didn’t know why Guan Xue Fei was with him before, but being the same woman, she could tell that the disgust between Guan Xue Fei’s eyebrows wasn’t fake.
She thought back to what she had seen earlier, Guan Xue Fei’s attitude towards Biden Lu, and her heart was a little bit clearer.
“Kwan Sheffield!Do you really have to be so desperate?Do you have any idea how much I’ve given to be able to be with you, and this is how you’re repaying me now?”
Guan Xuefei lowered her eyes slightly and smirked.
“Your so-called payoff is getting rid of the old woman who held you up to the top?If it’s this one, then forget it, I’m not only not going to be moved, I’m going to be disgusted!”
“You!You’re heartless!Do you know that just because I wanted to be with you, I’ve turned against her, and now that my past affairs with her have been reopened, I’m guessing the company will snow me in a little while.
And now you’re telling me that you’re dumping me!So what’s the point of all this I’m doing?What’s the point!”
Guan Xuefei snickered again.
“Did I ask you to make a big deal out of it?Did I tell you to break up with that old woman?Now you’re threatening me with this?What do you think I should do?Grateful for the snotty payback for marrying you?
Dream on!You get out now and I can still let you go, or if anyone finds out, I won’t spare you!”
Chapter 275
“You!Cheryl Kwan, you’re tough!It’s just because you’re the daughter of the Guan family, right?What does an impostor have…”
“Pop!”
A loud slap slapped He Chengjun’s face, Guan Xuefei was so angry that he turned red and said sternly, “If you dare to speak nonsense again, I believe I’ll really kill you!Get out!”
He Chengjun was struck to the side of his face, an expression of indignation appearing in his eyes.
Jenny shook his head.
Sheesh, it’s going to be an anti-climax!
She thinks that this is the end of the play, after all, He Chengjun is so poor and has no chips to find Guan Xuehui, there is no chance to win.
Moreover, which pot is not mentioned, knowing that Guan Xuefei is the adopted daughter of the Guan family, this matter must be a sore point for her in today’s situation where the Guan family is making a lot of noise to find their biological daughter.
And you poke at that sore spot!
You’re asking for a beating, aren’t you?
Now it seemed that he had been given a lot of credit for just begging for a slap instead of being thrown out with a big broom.
Jenny shook his head, feeling bored, and turned around to leave.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, there was a sudden “meow”.
I saw a shadow leap out of the sky, scratch her face and run away.
Jenny grunted in pain and touched his hand, finding three bloody marks scratched on his face, which was hot and painful.
Hiss-.
Where’s that cat, you cunt!
The noise here alerted the two people not far away, Guan Xuefei’s eyes and hands were quick, a few steps leaped over a handful of tree branches, and they saw Jenny hiding in the back.
She turned white and asked in a stern voice, “What are you doing here?”
Jenny was confused, naturally not stupid enough to tell her that she took a walk to here, found them whispering so eavesdrop for a while, can only play sloppy eyes with her.
“Uh, I’m here for the cat, ah yes!I just chased a cat over here and it’s gone and scratched me, did you see that cat?”
Guan Xuefei’s face darkened.
She turned back and locked eyes with He Chengjun across the room, who also had a look of fear in his eyes.
“Looking for a cat?Heh.The old lady is afraid of cats, who would dare to keep one here?”
Guan Xue Fei’s voice was cold and stern, staring at her with a murderous intent in her eyes, completely different from the sunny appearance she had had in the restaurant.
Jenny Jing’s heart was slightly shaken.
Is this an attempt to silence someone?
I don’t think so!
No matter what, this was a land house and there were so many people in front of it.
Thinking that though, but looking at the normally gentle and weak woman, suddenly revealing such a stern look, Jenny couldn’t help but feel a little weak in his heart.
She smiled dryly, but her feet didn’t move a step back.
“I’m not lying, I did see a cat, and even if I lied, you can’t lie about this bruise on my face!”
Afterwards, he even brought his face forward, and in the sunlight, three bloodstains on his fair skin were shockingly visible.
But Guan Xuefei remained silent, staring at her with increasingly cold eyes.
Jenny Jing smiled, “Miss Guan, why are you so nervous?By the way, who is this gentleman behind you?Seems a little familiar, is that your friend?”
Guan Xuefei faintly said, “No, I don’t know him.”
“Oh, so.”
Jenny nodded, not stopping any longer.
“Since it’s okay, I’ll leave now.
, this dead cat, it hurts me to scratch it, and I don’t know if it’s been vaccinated, I have to go to the doctor for a shot first.”
I said, drawing my steps and hurrying out.
Jenny had been feeling a very burning sight behind him as he left.
She knew that she had crashed through Guan Xue Fei’s secret today, and whether she would tell the world or not, she had become a thorn in her side in Guan Xue Fei’s eyes.
But she didn’t care.
Although Guan Xuefei was the daughter of the Guan family, looking at her performance today, she probably wasn’t actually as weak as she usually acted.
But she wasn’t afraid, and she didn’t mean to eavesdrop anyway, so her conscience was clear.
Biden Lu quickly finished talking to the old man, and since he had agreed to accompany Jenny Jing home in the afternoon, he looked everywhere for her as soon as he came out.
However, after searching the drawing-room and the flower-room without finding anyone, and catching a maid over, I found out on inquiry that she had run to the back to stroll the garden.
Although it was only late autumn today, the late autumn weather in Kyoto was already very cold, Jenny was wearing a thin dress today, and Biden Lu was afraid that she would freeze, and even his steps to find her had quickened a little.
They met under an archway between two courtyards.
Jenny saw him and tugged him over.
“It’s so windy out there, what are you doing out here?Beware of the cold.”
The man said as he took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders.
Jenny waved his hand, “It’s fine, come with me, I’ll tell you one thing.”
“What is it?”
Jenny looked behind him and eventually tugged on his sleeve, “Get out before we talk.”
They returned to the living room to greet the old lady and left the old house together.
After getting into the car, Jenny drank some water before saying, “Do you know who I just saw in the garden at the back?”
“Who?”
“Off Sheffield.”
Biden Lu frowned in puzzlement, “What’s wrong with her?”
“She’s with a man, that man I know, He Chengjun, also an artist under Anning International, the one who’s been making a lot of noise lately, they seem to be having some emotional disputes and it’s not very pleasant.”
Biden Lu intoned and said, “Although the Lu and Guan families are friends of the world, we’ve never cared about such things, but at most, we’re just helping out in the big things, and Guan Xuefei is over twenty now, so it’s not a strange thing to fall in love.”
Jenny shook his head.
“No, it’s not about that, it’s about what I just heard He Chengjun say, something about him dumping that old woman in order to be with Guan Xuefei, and I think there’s something wrong with that person.”
Biden Lu was stunned, “Old woman?”
“Well.”After Jenny finished nodding her head, it occurred to her that Biden Lu was usually preoccupied with his day-to-day life, so naturally he wouldn’t pay attention to the news in the entertainment industry, even if the artist was from his own family, he probably wouldn’t know.
So he even told him what Xiao Chen had called at noon to tell him.
After saying that, he added: “Lord that He Chengjun is not very reliable, it feels quite radical, if Guan Xuefei really has something with him, at this time to break up, I am afraid that the other party will do something too radical.”
Biden Lu looked at her.
That glance, taboo as it was, made Jenny’s heart furry.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Nothing.”He paused to let the driver drive, before he turned back to reexamine her again.
Jenny was getting more and more furious by the more he looked at her.
“Biden Lu, don’t look at me like that, you’re making me uncomfortable.”
