Chapter 18 How long does Mr. Lu plan to pretend to be stupid?

Faced with Qin Muyang's indifference, the man surnamed Mao was very embarrassed. After Qin Muyang took the elevator upstairs, the man surnamed Mao took out his business card and smiled at Xie Wantang flatteringly: "Hello, ma'am, are you familiar with Lawyer Qin?"

"He's the lawyer I hired to help me with my divorce case. Do you think we're familiar with each other?" Xie Wantang asked with a smile.

The man surnamed Mao nodded vigorously, "Madam, you are very impressive to be able to hire Lawyer Qin."

Xie Wantang looked up at Xia Meng, who was looking unhappy. "That's not entirely true, sir. The Miss Xia next to you is the more powerful one. By the way, I advise you not to mess with Miss Xia. Her family is surnamed Lu."

The man surnamed Mao: “…”

Xie Wantang didn't want to help Xia Meng, but he couldn't stand these despicable men who took advantage of their little money to do whatever they wanted to women.

Of course, she also couldn't understand why Xia Meng would swallow her anger when she was already relying on Lu Yanshen?

She had every reason to resist this clumsy man.

However, whether Xia Meng resisted or not had nothing to do with her.

After Xie Wantang finished speaking, he turned and left.

There was a row of taxis waiting for guests in front of the hotel. When Xie Wantang came out, the first taxi in the queue drove over.

As Xie Wantang opened the back door, Xia Meng chased after him, "Xie Wantang, why did you threaten Mr. Mao just now?"

"Miss Xia doesn't call me Mrs. Lu anymore?" Xie Wantang raised an eyebrow.

Xia Meng choked, "Yes, Mrs. Lu has no worries about food and drink, she has someone to support her, but I'm just a worker, I have to earn money to support the family and raise the children."

"Did I say something wrong just now? Isn't Miss Xia's financial sponsor surnamed Lu? Why, weren't the fireworks on the mountaintop a few days ago enough to give Miss Xia a sense of security?"

"Did you look at my Moments?" Xia Meng covered her mouth, then suddenly realized and asked, "Xie Wantang, did you divorce Yan Shen just because of my mistaken Moments post?"

"Miss Xia's acting skills are indeed superb. However, it would be better if such a wonderful performance was shown to those who paid for it. Excuse me, I have to hurry. Miss Xia, please make way."

"Wantang, listen to my explanation, okay? I can explain it."

"No need to explain. I'm giving up Mrs. Lu's position. Whether or not you can fulfill your wish depends entirely on Miss Xia's ability. Master, drive."

Xia Meng stood there, watching the taxi getting farther and farther away. Only when it was out of sight did she change her pitiful look, took out her cell phone and made a call.

"I figured it out. She did file for divorce from Lu Yanshen because of the photos she posted on her WeChat Moments that night."

"Also, she actually went to Hai City to invite Qin Muyang."

"knew."

The call ends here.

Xia Meng turned around and re-entered the hotel. The man surnamed Mao changed his previous wretched appearance and asked Xia Meng with a flattering face: "Mengmeng, how was my performance just now?"

"Very good, I will praise you to Yan Shen."

"Thank you Mengmeng." The man surnamed Mao was very happy.

"Just keep an eye on it here. I'm going back to take care of my son."

"Well, go ahead."

…

Xie Wantang took a taxi back to the Lu family. Lu Yanshen was just about to go out to the hospital to visit Lu Rourou.

"Are you back?" Seeing Xie Wantang, Lu Yanshen didn't blame or get angry, as if nothing had happened.

"Where are you going, Mr. Lu?"

"Hospital."

"See Lu Rourou?"

"Well, do you want one?"

"Do you think she wants to see me? Mr. Lu should take Miss Xia with him. After all, they are best friends and have a good relationship. At this time, your precious sister will definitely want to see someone who can make her happy."

"Rou Rou just called and said she wants to eat the pineapple sticky rice you made. I know you can't make it for her. Do you have any good recommendations for restaurants that make this dish as well as you do?"

"This dessert tastes the same no matter who makes it. Your family always makes trouble for me. How long do you plan to play dumb, Mr. Lu?"

After saying that, Xie Wantang turned around and went in.

Lu Yanshen frowned, finally got into Pei Xiao's car and left first.

I have to say that Lu Rourou is quite good at ordering dishes. Lu Yanshen just mentioned pineapple sticky rice, and now Xie Wantang is really craving this dessert.

When Xie Wantang returned to her room and lay down, she called Xu Yanqiu and asked her to buy two pineapples and some glutinous rice and bring them to Lu's house. She had eaten her noodles with gravy that day, so today, she made pineapple glutinous rice to repay her.

When Xu Yanqiu knew that she had returned from Hai City, he immediately agreed, changed his clothes and went out to buy glutinous rice and big, sweet pineapples.

Two hours later, the two best friends huddled on the sofa in the Lu family's living room, each holding a bowl of pineapple rice and eating with relish.

Xu Yanqiu also took photos and deliberately posted them on Xie Wantang’s circle of friends.

Then, as luck would have it, this circle of friends was also seen by Lu Rourou who was staying in the hospital.

She enlarged the photo that Xie Wantang posted on her Moments, and then carefully compared the pineapple rice in the photo with the one in her hand. After looking at it for a long time, she discovered the details.

"Second brother, are you sure this pineapple rice was made for me by Xie Wantang?" Lu Rourou asked in a tender voice.

"Xie Wantang?" Lu Yanshen frowned slightly and asked in confusion.

He always thought that Lu Rourou called Xie Wantang "second sister-in-law".

Isn't that the case?

It doesn’t matter that his mother doesn’t like Xie Wantang. After all, he only goes back to the old house to be with Mrs. Lu once a month. Lu Yanshen thinks that the time is not long and he can just endure it.

However, Lu Rourou is her younger sister, and she shouldn't be so disrespectful to Xie Wantang.

"Oh, I mean second sister-in-law." Lu Rourou was surprised for a moment, then quickly changed her words.

Lu Yanshen's brows relaxed slightly. "Did she make it herself, or did I wash the glutinous rice?"

"Why doesn't hers have wolfberries, but mine does? I remember my second sister-in-law didn't put wolfberries in the ones she made for me before." Lu Rourou was very confused.

Xie Wantang said that all pineapple rice tastes similar.

What Xie Wantang didn’t say was that even though the taste was similar, people with a keen eye could still taste the difference.

Lu Rourou is not a person with a delicate mind, so Lu Yanshen can get away with it by just buying some pineapple rice anywhere.

"Then I just put two in there. You need to replenish your nutrition now, so eat it." Lu Yanshen said seriously.

Lu Rourou finally believed it, and as if she was deliberately looking for trouble, she ate half of it and refused to eat it, "Second sister-in-law put too much sugar in it today, it's too sweet, I don't want to eat it anymore."

"Forget it." Lu Yanshen threw the rest directly into the trash can.

"Why didn't my second sister-in-law come with you to see me? Is she still the daughter-in-law of our Lu family?" Lu Rourou continued to find fault.

"She just came back from Hai City and took the trouble to make pineapple rice for you, so I asked her to rest at home. Why don't you let your second brother feel sorry for his wife?"

After he finished speaking, Xia Meng came in with Xiaodongdong knocking on the door.

Lu Rourou saw Xia Meng and winked at Lu Yanshen, "Second brother, Sister Meng is better."

Lu Yanshen: “…”
