After returning from Country S, Su Xia's mentality changed completely.

I always felt that it was too early to get married, but now I understand that time is limited and I really need to cherish the person in front of me.

Lu Jingyao's gaze stayed on Su Xia's face for a long time. After a moment, he leaned back slightly, his eyes full of tenderness.

Lu Shutong was so shocked by Su Xia's words of tacit approval that he couldn't speak for a long time.

She looked left and right, holding her chin with her hand, looking unhappy.

Although after Su Xia married into their family and became her sister-in-law, their relationship became a further step towards being a family, but in her heart, her baby is just the best and no one else is worthy of him.

As luck would have it, she fell into a trap set by a man named Lu Jingyao.

Oh no, forget it.

As long as her baby is happy.

The dishes for lunch were what Meng Rong learned from Lu Jingyao, and they were the dishes that Su Xia liked to eat.

Lu Chen finally got back before dinner. He sat down on a chair and called out to someone, saying with a smile on his face, "Brother, the car you bought for me is so easy to drive."

He took a big gulp of water and said happily, "It's been easier to flirt with girls since I started driving that car."

Mr. Lu glanced at him and said, "When are you going to get your mind right and find a girlfriend to go home with?"

"No hurry, I'm still young," Lu Chen said casually while eating, "If you're anxious to have a great-grandson, urge these two people next to you. Aren't there ready-made ones?"

"Your brother is your brother, and you are you." Mr. Lu sighed, "The whole family is devoted to each other, and I don't know why you and your sister are the exceptions."

Lu Shutong said quickly: "You were talking about my brother, why are you talking about me again? Grandpa, it's enough for you to just talk about him. I know very well that I'm not like him."

Lu Chen sneered, "Come on, you still have the nerve to say that. You're not going to say that you cast your net everywhere to find someone who is more suitable for you, are you? You're almost using this excuse too much."

Lu Shutong: "..."

The two people were about to quarrel.

Mr. Lu was helpless.

They are all his grandchildren, and he can’t bear to say anything to any of them.

Lu Jingyao's expression was indifferent. When he looked at Su Xia, there was a soft light in his eyes. After picking up some food for her, he raised his eyes lazily and said, "Shut up."

In an instant, the two people who had just been arguing with red faces and thick necks immediately shut their mouths as a conditioned reflex.

Su Xia found it magical.

These two people looked fearless and actually listened to Lu Jingyao so much.

Lu Shutong held back for a moment, and while eating, he moved closer to Su Xia and whispered in her ear, "Baby, has my brother ever treated you like this?"

She leaned over and glanced at Lu Jingyao, and continued, "He's very fierce. You can tell from how scared my brother and I are of him."

"He's never been that mean to me."

Su Xia's eyes were full of filters: "And I don't think he was very fierce just now."

Lu Shutong: "..."

She was full of doubts about her life: "Isn't this fierce?"

Su Xia shook her head innocently, her attitude was obvious.

never mind.

Her baby is just like herself. When he sees someone he likes, he automatically adds a filter. No matter what you say, it’s useless.

Although she had never seen Lu Jingyao being mean to her baby, that didn't mean he hadn't been mean to her in private.

Anyway, if she finds out, she will teach him a lesson no matter what.

Lu Shutong thought of himself as brave and fearless, but at this moment, Lu Jingyao's calm voice suddenly came: "What are you talking about?"

She was startled and shook her head quickly: "Nothing, brother."

Forget it, let’s just think about it.

——

The day after returning from the Lu family’s old house, there was an activity at Mantang.

Mantang is a clothing brand with several decades of history. It is considered a well-known brand in China. Su Xia has been their spokesperson for two years. After this event, Su Xia’s cooperation with this brand will expire in about a month.

The contract and whether to renew it will be renegotiated next month.

All brands that have worked with Su Xia are thinking about renewing the contract with her, and Mantang is no exception. Even though the contract is only one month away from expiring, they have already made an appointment with Su Xia's team to renegotiate the contract.

The news that Su Xia had returned to participate in Mantang's activities had already spread throughout the entire Xia fan circle. Xia fans in the capital who were able and had time to come had already reserved seats in the mall. Passersby who saw this scene would inevitably feel a little confused, so many people began to ask the Xia fans around them: "Is there any activity here?"

"Yes, Su Xia will be here soon."

When they heard the name Su Xia, the eyes of the passers-by who were asking questions all sparkled, and they immediately found a good seat and did not intend to leave.

In a blink of an eye, the atrium of the mall and the area upstairs were crowded with people.

As there were too many people, the mall began to restrict traffic for safety reasons.

Xia Fan, who arrived late, couldn't get in and could only wait outside with regret on her face.

This brand event was held in the afternoon. After the event, there was Mantang’s anniversary celebration in the evening. The attendees were all senior executives of the brand, as well as CEOs of other brands. There were quite a lot of people coming. These were all the people Su Xia saw when she attended the event last year.

She arrived at the lounge of the mall early with her team. For this event, the brand required that they wear clothes from their own brand, Mantang, and they sent them several sets. In the end, Su Xia chose a simple one-shoulder denim skirt with sleeves made of light blue chiffon, which was simple yet generous.

Su Xia is fair to begin with, and this makes her look even fairer. Her hair was tied into a bun by the stylist, making her look particularly lively and youthful.

They didn't know what clothes Chang Yuxin's team would choose. Xiaoyi was prejudiced against her, so she said, "I bet her a bag of spicy noodles. She will definitely choose the one with the smallest white flower among the clothes. After all, it is more in line with her personality."

The stylist added: "Not just small white flowers, but also luxurious ones."

Xue Mingan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Is this true? You guys are telling the truth."

"We'll know after we see it." Xiaoyi smiled slyly, "If it's true, would Brother Ming'an like to treat us to a meal?"

Xue Mingan: "I didn't say I wanted to bet with you."

He opened his mouth and was about to continue talking, as he had promised them, when there was a knock on the door. A staff member from the brand opened the door and poked his head in, saying softly, "The event is about to start, is Xia Xia ready?"

Su Xia stood up and said, "I'm ready."
