Chen Mengchu shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Maybe my sister misunderstood something."

Chen Mengchu explained for Shen Qingli without any intention of blaming her.

Instead, it was Shen Qingli who put all the blame on Chen Mengchu.

And because of Lu Jingxiao's word "Chu Chu", everyone knew that the person in front of them was Chen Mengchu.

It’s her?

They didn't recognize me at all.

But why is she dressed like this?

Just when everyone was confused.

Chen Mengchu spoke again, "Forget it, my sister said it was me, so let's just say it was me. I'll apologize to my sister."

Chen Mengchu was so timid and his voice was so soft that it made people feel distressed.

But some people also questioned that her behavior was different from that at Shen Zhenghua’s last birthday party.

Some people have questioned it.

But some people also said that it was Shen Zhenghua who forced her to do so. How could a girl who was obviously sensible and caring do such a thing?

He was the one who went too far.

Listening to the voice coming from his ears, Chen Mengchu smiled with satisfaction.

I have to thank Shen Qingli for all this. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been able to learn this.

Shen Qingli felt very uncomfortable when she heard everyone defending Chen Mengchu.

Seeing that Chen Mengchu was about to apologize to him.

Shen Qingli quickly changed her words.

"Sister, I didn't say it had to be you, it was just that you happened to be next to me, so I misunderstood."

"You don't have to apologize. Even if it really is you, it's nothing."

Shen Qingli looked so well-behaved and sensible, thinking about her, that Shen Mengchu couldn't help but sneer.

She's really good.

Such a good actor.

The transformation was so fast, she is worthy of being Bai Rouer's daughter.

Since she wants to act, I will accompany her.

Chen Mengchu stepped forward and grabbed Shen Qingli.

"My sister must have misunderstood. My sister didn't do anything."

"Look at your feet. Didn't you trip over the blanket?"

Chen Mengchu explained, asking Shen Qingli to look down at her feet.

It wasn't her who tripped her, but the blanket on the floor.

Shen Qingli looked at the carpet, which had a bulge. If she wasn't careful, she would definitely trip over it, but...

The staff wouldn't be so careless.

Shen Qingli looked at Chen Mengchu with some doubt.

How could there be such a sudden bulge? Why didn't she trip when she came over?

Shen Qingli thought about all this but didn't say it out loud.

After all, Lu Jingxiao was still by her side at this time. If she forced her, she would definitely not end up well. Even if she wanted to go against her, it would not be at this time.

Shen Qingli had a plan in mind, so she began to speak in a gentle voice with a hint of apology in her tone.

"It turns out that I misunderstood my sister. I'm sorry. It's my fault."

Shen Mengchu was surprised by Shen Qingli's confession of her mistake.

It seems that Shen Qingli is not as stupid as she thought.

Seeing Shen Qingli admit her mistake, Chen Mengchu didn't want to embarrass her anymore.

If you continue to make things difficult for yourself, it will seem like you are at fault.

"I didn't blame you at all."

"I just hoped there were no misunderstandings between us. Now that it's been resolved, there are no misunderstandings between us."

The fact that Chen Mengchu didn't pursue the matter makes people think she is a good person.

Shen Qingli gritted her teeth, but still smiled on the surface.

I am not in a hurry when I am in deep dream.

“Mr. Lu, no…brother-in-law, I didn’t mean to misunderstand my sister. I hope you won’t be angry.”

The reason why Shen Qingli did this was to say hello to Lu Jingxiao, and to use Chen Mengchu to establish a good relationship with Lu Jingxiao.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Jingxiao's face darkened.

There was a gloomy look between his brows, and even his cold eyes had a hint of ruthlessness and disgust.

"Miss Shen, you called me the wrong name. You should call me Mr. Lu."

Lu Jingxiao corrected Shen Qingli's wording.

Everyone was confused again after listening to his words.

What does he mean by that?

Neither recognize Shen Qingli nor recognize Chen Mengchu.

Does his statement mean that Shen Mengchu is not his person either?

Otherwise, how could it be wrong?

Just when everyone was puzzled...

Lu Jingxiao spoke again.

"My wife has no family, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate for Miss Shen to call me 'brother-in-law'."

Although Lu Jingxiao's tone was not as harsh as before, his voice was full of warnings and threats.

Everyone understood something after listening to Lu Jingxiao's words.

The way he acted meant that he didn't acknowledge Chen Mengchu, and it was clearly that he didn't acknowledge Shen Qingli.

He was simply standing up for Shen Mengchu. After all, it was Shen Zhenghua who admitted that he had severed his relationship with Shen Mengchu.

If that's the case, then Chen Mengchu has no family, and it's indeed inappropriate for Shen Qingli to call her like that.

"Sister...Mr. Lu, I..."

"Sister, it was Dad who said that. I didn't." Although he hated her so much, he still had to pretend.

She couldn't let everyone think that she dared to leave Shen Mengchu.

"I know he's the one who made the decision, but you can't call me sister anymore. It was just out of courtesy, not really proof that we are sisters.

After all...my mother only gave birth to me, and so did your mother."

Chen Mengchu spoke, but did not speak for Shen Qingli. Instead, he told her that Lu Jingxiao was right.

I was just being polite just now and didn't really want to treat her as my sister.

"Jing Xiao is right, I really don't have any relatives."

Chen Mengchu did not forget to add one sentence.

First, it proved that what Lu Jingxiao said was true, and second, it proved the relationship between him and Lu Jingxiao.

I originally wanted to mess it up, but now it seems... it's not that easy.

"I..." Shen Qingli bit her lip and said nothing more.

Although the people around had questions, they didn't dare to ask more.

After all, this is Lu Jingxiao!

Isn’t it like slapping Lu Jingxiao in the face if they ask?

You would only say that if you don't want to stay in Cloud City anymore.

Everyone kept their mouths shut and didn't dare to say anything.

After all, what happened at Shen Zhenghua’s birthday party is still fresh in their minds, and they don’t want to be the second wave of those people.

"Jing Xiao, forget it."

Chen Mengchu climbed onto Lu Jingxiao's arm and told him not to be so serious.

Lu Jingxiao didn't say anything, but nodded the moment Shen Mengchu climbed onto his arm.

Lu Jingxiao hugged Chen Mengchu's waist and turned to leave.

Shen Qingli on the side did not speak.

But the moment the two turned around, the emotions in their eyes changed instantly.

Chen Mengchu, aren’t you hooking up with Lu Jingxiao?

Now that Lu Jingxiao is protecting you, let’s see what you will do in the future.

Shen Qingli snorted coldly and turned to leave.

…………

"Where did you go?" Xiao Wenbo took Shen Qingli's hand and asked him.

Shen Qingli shook her head. "Nothing, just ran into an acquaintance."

"Be good, the banquet is about to start, don't run around." Xiao Wenbo instructed Shen Qingli and reached out to pinch Shen Qingli's waist lightly.

"Okay, I understand." Shen Qingli's voice was coquettish. She did not take her hand off her waist, but instead snuggled into Xiao Wenbo's arms.
