Chapter 111 Persuade Your Sister

Xu Zhengnan didn't say anything, he just came over and bent down to help me pick up the tea gift box.

"Are you healed? If not, I'll do it myself." I suddenly remembered the injury on his arm and said quickly.

He still didn't say anything and walked up the stairs holding the gift box.

I followed closely behind him, ready to catch the gift box at any time, for fear that Xu Zhengnan's wound would hurt and he would not be able to hold on to the gift box and it would drop.

After entering the elevator, he put the gift box on the ground, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why do you want to open your own shop instead of being Mrs. Shen?" Xu Zhengnan asked me.

"Women should be independent." I answered perfunctorily. I didn't know how to tell him the specific reason. I could give up this store at any time, but before I left, I needed to make some money from it and put it in my own name.

Xu Zhengnan seemed to have heard a joke, his smile was slightly disapproving. After the elevator door opened, he picked up the gift box and left first.

After arriving at his house, I looked around. This was my first time in his house. The style was very similar to what I had imagined, with a simple style. However, every piece of furniture had a very textured feel and was obviously very expensive.

"I have delivered the things. Please sign. Lian Qingqing should be here soon." I took out a pen and handed it to Xu Zhengnan.

After he signed for it, I mustered up the courage to congratulate him, "Congratulations on moving into your new home, and I wish you all the best in the future."

"Well, thank you." He nodded slightly and didn't respond to my congratulations.

I should have given a gift as well, but I was in a hurry to deliver the gift that Lian Qingqing had ordered, so I forgot about it. I was secretly thinking about going back to the store to choose something else to send.

At this time, more people came. They came in through the gate. Except for Xia Yu, who I was familiar with, I didn’t recognize the other people.

As soon as Xia Yu saw me, she showed a surprised expression, "Miss Li!"

"Hello, Mr. Xia." I greeted him a little awkwardly.

He looked at me and then at Xu Zhengnan, smiling deeply, "Zhengnan, did you invite Miss Li to come over to celebrate the housewarming?"

Before Xu Zhengnan could answer, I answered first, "No, I'm here to give Xu Zhengnan something. Someone bought a gift in my store and asked me to deliver it to his door."

Xia Yu looked as if he had suddenly realized something, and was a little disappointed, "Is that so? I thought we could have a meal together."

Xu Zhengnan said coldly, "Are you familiar with her?"

Xia Yu smiled and replied, "Not really. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known such a lovely girl. I think she's very interesting. It would be great if we could make friends."

Xia Yu is very outgoing, and I felt a little embarrassed. I only knew Xu Zhengnan and him among the people here, so it would be awkward to stay any longer. "Xu Zhengnan, I'm leaving first."

"Well, let's go."

After getting the reply, I immediately returned the same way I came, and I didn't feel relieved until I got back to my car.

I gave up the idea of ​​giving Xu Zhengnan another gift and just stayed in the store obediently.

Then I posted a job notice online. It would be quite tiring if I was the only one working here. I couldn't leave the store, and it was very troublesome to purchase and deliver goods.

After finishing all this, I made a special trip to the company.

"Li Yue, why are you here?" Manager He was very surprised when he saw me, and then came over to ask about my well-being. The gist of it was that Shen Yixiao had told me that I didn't have to come to the company, but my salary would still be paid.

While Manager He was talking to me, everyone else was looking at me.

Among them, Jiang Fang's gaze was the most direct. Although she and Lu Xiaoyun were cousins, they were related by blood after all. Their eyes sometimes looked very similar, which made me feel uncomfortable.

Remembering what happened in the hospital before, I walked towards her.

When Jiang Fang saw me walking towards her, she looked surprised.

"Jiang Fang, let's talk alone." I said softly.

Jiang Fang is a little younger than Lu Xiaoyun and has a more cheerful personality, but there is a hint of shrewdness in her eyes from time to time. I took her out of the company directly because it was not safe enough to stay there.

Jiang Fang looked puzzled and followed me to a coffee shop near the company. After I ordered two cups of coffee, I expressed my concern in front of her, "Jiang Fang, you are Secretary Lu's cousin. I'm looking for you because of her matter."

"Madam, what do you mean?" Jiang Fang still didn't understand.

"Secretary Lu is very capable at work. She has already submitted her resignation, but it will take some time before she leaves. Before she leaves, I have something to tell you. Please help persuade her." I held the coffee cup, feeling a warm sensation in my palms. I looked into Jiang Fang's eyes and continued, "Do you know that she has a boyfriend?"

When Jiang Fang heard this, her expression immediately changed, "I know, what's wrong?"

"Have you met her boyfriend?" I said worriedly, "I've only heard her talk about it, but never met him. Secretary Lu said her boyfriend is very good, but no matter what happens to her, he never seems to care about her. I'm worried that she has met a scumbag. I've warned her, but she doesn't take it seriously."

Jiang Fang's eyes rolled around, "Madam, why are you so worried about my sister? Could it be because of Mr. Shen..."

Sure enough, she thought of this aspect again.

The girl's eyes revealed ambition. When she was in the hospital, she questioned Lu Xiaoyun without any politeness and showed no respect or courtesy to the so-called cousin.

That's what I like.

"It has nothing to do with Shen Yixiao. I only learned about Secretary Lu's situation through him. Do you know that your sister..." I was a little embarrassed and stopped talking.

Jiang Fang hurriedly urged me, "What happened to my sister?"

"Did you know that she had a miscarriage?" I asked in a low voice.

When Jiang Fang heard what I said, her eyes widened. She and her family knew that Lu Xiaoyun had found a boyfriend, but they had never met him, let alone knew that Lu Xiaoyun had suffered a miscarriage.

Of course, Lu Xiaoyun would not be willing to tell Jiang Fang and the others about this.

The atmosphere froze for a few seconds, and the astonishment on Jiang Fang's face dissipated, and gradually revealed a trace of contempt and disgust, "How could my sister do such a thing? If my parents knew, they would definitely scold her to death. It's simply a disgrace to our family!"

I took a sip of coffee, my face serious. "I know I shouldn't meddle in other people's business, but we are all women. I don't want to see her being deceived by a scumbag and suffer such serious physical injuries. If she knew that I told her about this, she would definitely..."

Jiang Fang frowned, "Don't worry, I won't tell her that you said that."
