Chapter 88 She Sees It

In fact, Meng Chuyuan didn’t quite understand.

The Liao Jiake she met on the show could support herself and take care of her sister, but when Xu Zeyi appeared, Liao Jiake never took her eyes off him and was even a little immersed in her own world.

The contrast is really too big.

Liao Jiake suddenly felt that she couldn't understand Meng Chuyuan's smile, and it seemed that she didn't seem to care about anything in particular.

Liao Jiake is five years older than Meng Chuyuan. She has been married to Xu Zeyi for more than a year, which is considered a relatively early age to get married in the circle. When they got married, it happened to be the rising period of Liao Jiake's career. Between career and love, she chose love without hesitation.

Over the past year, she has almost disappeared from the circle, not accepting endorsements or filming, and staying at home as a full-time housewife. She is even willing to give all the resources in her hands to Xu Zeyi.

At that time, she felt very lucky to have met a man like Xu Zeyi who was so gentle, considerate and kind to her.

Speaking of marriage, Liao Jiake suddenly became curious about how Meng Chuyuan balanced his career and love.

Since the two were sitting face to face and some distance apart, it was inconvenient for them to communicate, so Liao Jiake walked over and sat next to Meng Chuyuan.

Liao Jiake glanced at her and asked in a low voice, "How long have you been married?"

"It's been almost a month." Just a few days.

"Only a month?" Liao Jiake showed a hint of surprise. She didn't expect Meng Chuyuan to have been married for only a month. "Then didn't you go on a honeymoon after the wedding?"

Meng Chuyuan didn't show any regret. She said calmly, "The night after we got the marriage certificate, he went on a business trip and hasn't come back yet."

"..." After hearing this, Liao Jiake didn't know how to respond.

After a long while, Liao Jiake finally picked up the topic again: "My husband and I have been married for more than a year. Every time he joins the crew to film, I will visit him every few days."

Meng Chuyuan seemed to understand what message Liao Jiake wanted to convey to her. She wanted to remind her to be more proactive and care about the man outside.

However, Meng Chuyuan asked Liao Jiake in return, "It doesn't really matter if a man is a little busy. At least he's working hard to earn money and support the family, don't you think?"

She and Lu Qingye have no emotional foundation, so she may really not be able to empathize with Liao Jiake's feelings. However, even if the two have feelings for each other, if it is really necessary for work, shouldn't they be considerate of each other?

Liao Jiake: "Your husband has been away on business for so long, don't you miss him at all?"

Meng Chuyuan suddenly laughed, and her smile was very natural. She even joked with Liao Jiake: "You forgot that I am now recognized as an abandoned woman in the wealthy circle. Why would I miss a man who is so confident in letting me be an abandoned woman?"

Lu Qingye married her because he trusted her, so she had to make Lu Qingye feel at ease.

She lives in a comfortable house, spends the money given by Lu Qingye, and has no complicated disputes or family relationships with wealthy families. This kind of life is as happy as a god.

Although the name of abandoned wife is not very nice, her life is not bad at all.

Liao Jiake pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, forcing out an awkward yet polite smile, and said with some admiration: "You have a really good attitude."

Meng Chuyuan: "My in-laws are not afraid of the gossip outside, so why should I worry about it? After all, my face is not worth much."

Compared with the Lu family's reputation, her face is indeed worthless.

So she just needs to keep calm and enjoy herself.

——

In the evening, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen finally returned to the Lu residence.

As soon as the two got out of the car and saw the yard full of colorful balloons, they began to wonder if they had come to the wrong place.

Lu Jinsen asked the butler curiously, "What's going on?"

The housekeeper said, "The Third Miss knew you were coming back today, so she did it on purpose."

When Lu Qianling was mentioned, Meng Chuyuan suddenly remembered the past incident between them: "Uncle Chen, has that girl been attending classes these past few days?"

"Yes." The housekeeper nodded and said, "The Third Miss has been very diligent in attending school these days. Madam is now more pleased with her. However, she has been getting up very early these days, so the driver who takes her to school is quite stressed."

Meng Chuyuan raised his eyebrows with interest: "Not bad."

At least Lu Qianling was a man of his word and didn't treat her perfunctorily.

Housekeeper: "The third young lady said that she will be back after evening self-study, so we don't have to wait for her for dinner later."

"She must be very late after evening self-study, right? Doesn't she live on campus?"

Listening to Meng Chuyuan and the housekeeper talking about this matter, Lu Jinsen suddenly interrupted: "She is a day student and has never lived on campus."

The school does not require day students to attend evening self-study classes, but sometimes it is not entirely self-study, and there will occasionally be classes.

Lu Qianling was so lazy that she couldn't even finish her classes during the day, so naturally no one had any expectations of her during the evening study session.

Meng Chuyuan pondered it carefully for a while, then frowned and said, "You should be living on campus by now when you're in high school, and this school isn't close to home, right? Running around every day is tiring."

There are residential areas nearby, and there is not even a bus stop. For someone like Lu Qianling who has to go to school every day, it is quite a hassle.

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinsen couldn't help but reveal to her, "You probably don't know, right? She's not very popular at school and doesn't get along well with her classmates. Having her live on campus will only cause more trouble."

This was also the reason why they let Lu Qianling attend school as a day student.

Lu Qianling has been living on campus since she started junior high school, but she had some conflicts with her roommates just a few days after school started. Later, their dormitories began to conflict with each other. Lu Qianling could not stand this grievance and insisted that Lu Qingye move her out of the dormitory and said she wanted to transfer schools.

Ever since that incident, Lu Qianling no longer likes to get along with her classmates and has developed a withdrawn personality. Now, no matter where she goes, she is isolated.

Meng Chuyuan asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"

She didn't have much contact with Lu Qianling, but Meng Chuyuan felt that her personality was acceptable. It shouldn't be as serious as Lu Jinsen said, right?

A trace of guilt flashed in Lu Jinsen's eyes, but he remained calm and said, "She's just copying me. I guess her personality is just like mine."

Meng Chuyuan said meaningfully, "I see."

“…”

Because he and Lu Qianling are close in age, when Lu Qingye was studying outside, they were the only two left at home.

Lu Qianling may be younger and very dependent. She admires Lu Qingye, but does not have that kind of feeling or pressure towards Lu Jinsen.

After she and Lu Jinsen had been together for a long time, they often had little quarrels, and their personalities were simply cut from the same mold.

Lu Jinsen actually felt guilty towards his sister. He thought that Lu Qianling became like this today because he failed to set a good example as a brother.
