In her previous life, she gave her all for him, helping him rise step by step to high office, yet she couldn't compare to her good sister who slept with him once.
When her gentle and affe...
Chapter 602 She is weak but she is right
"Dad." Lu Xiang called, and then turned to look at Chu Jinyan: "Good luck to your highness."
Seeing Lu Xiang, Chu Jinyan's cold expression suddenly became like the warm sun in March that melted the thick ice on the river surface, and his black eyes were filled with layers of soft light.
When he saw his daughter, Lu Youping's face suddenly lit up with a smile.
His good daughter, the lucky star of the Lu family.
"Xiangxiang, you..."
But just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Chu Jinyan.
"I'm back. There's a new troupe at Changwu Garden. I'll take you to see the show."
Lu Youping choked and silently swallowed the rest of his words.
I can’t afford to offend you! I can’t afford to offend you!
The Eighth Prince will call him father-in-law in the future, and he really doesn't dare to take himself seriously.
Lu Xiang blinked and wanted to say that she had seen the play performed by the new troupe a few days ago, but seeing Chu Jinyan's expectant and happy look, she couldn't bear to refuse, so she nodded.
"Dad, I'm going out then." Lu Xiang looked at Lu Youping obediently.
Lu Youping nodded without hesitation: "Go ahead."
Watching a play is good, it can help you cultivate better feelings.
The most famous theater in the capital is Wanxi Tower. The owner of the troupe was once a popular celebrity, but he retired behind the scenes because he was too old to sing anymore. He employed a dozen actors and trained several famous female actors. Because the owner's name was Wanxi, his troupe was called Wanxi Troupe, and the theater he bought later was also called Wanxi Tower. It is now the favorite place for wealthy and nobles.
However, just a few months ago, Chang Wuyuan invited an opera troupe from somewhere. After only three days of performance, the troupe became famous. Now it is as famous as Wanxi Tower. If you want to watch the show, you have to book a seat in advance.
At this moment, the entrance of Changwu Garden was very lively, and the servants greeted guest after guest with smiles on their faces.
"Your Highness, Third Miss." Yuan Feng saw the two and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them: "The wing room is ready."
Chu Jinyan nodded: "Well, you wait outside."
"Yes, Your Highness." Yuanfeng responded respectfully, not feeling that there was anything wrong.
Lu Xiang followed Chu Jinyan into the building and subconsciously looked back at Yuan Feng, thinking to himself that he was a very honest young man. If it were Sheng Xian today, he would definitely throw a tantrum and follow him in to watch the show.
"What's wrong?" Chu Jinyan couldn't help but ask when he saw Lu Xiang looking back.
Lu Xiang retracted his gaze and gave Chu Jinyan a faint smile: "Suddenly I found that Yuanfeng is more honest than Sheng Xian."
Chu Jinyan glanced at Yuanfeng with a cold gaze. Xiangxiang actually paid so much attention to Yuanfeng and praised him? Should he consider sending Yuanfeng to mine, so that he wouldn't be under Xiangxiang's nose from time to time.
Yuanfeng was walking when he suddenly felt a chill on his back, which made him shudder violently.
Why do I feel so chilly?
Who wants to harm him?
"cousin."
Suddenly, a charming and joyful voice was heard. Lu Xiang looked and saw Zheng Wenshuang, who was dressed elegantly and gracefully, coming down the stairs with a faint smile. There was a light in her dark eyes, which showed her joy at seeing Chu Jinyan.
Looking at Zheng Wenshuang who was getting closer and closer to him, Chu Jinyan took a step aside with a cold face. The strong smell of makeup on Zheng Wenshuang made him feel nauseous.
His obvious act of disdain was like an invisible slap in the face of Zheng Wenshuang. The smile on her face froze for a moment. If she had not always kept in mind her noble status as a princess and not wanted to be laughed at by outsiders, she would have lost control of the expression on her face long ago.
"I didn't expect that my cousin also likes watching plays. It's better to meet by chance than to invite him in person. I have booked a private room. Cousin, let's go together." Zheng Wenshuang concealed the embarrassment in her eyes, tilted her head slightly, looked at Chu Jinyan with a sweet smile, and said.
Chu Jinyan rolled her eyes at Zheng Wenshuang, not wanting to waste time talking, and turned to Lu Xiang beside her and said softly, "Let's go."
Lu Xiang glanced at Zheng Wenshuang, smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Then the two of them walked past Zheng Wenshuang as if they had seen nothing.
Zheng Wenshuang could never have imagined that Chu Jinyan and Lu Xiang would ignore her like that in public, and she was so angry that her face turned pale.
The eighth prince is fine.
Why did Lu Xiang dare to embarrass her?
When Lu Xiang and Zheng Wenshuang passed each other, they suddenly heard a scream of "Ah". Everyone in the lobby saw Zheng Wenshuang staggering to the side, and holding on to the door frame in panic.
Hearing the voice, Lu Xiang suddenly stopped and turned around. He saw Zheng Wenshuang looking at him with a wronged look and an accusing look on her face. She looked like she was about to cry, as if Lu Xiang was an unforgivable villain.
"Ms. Lu, why did you push me?" Zheng Wenshuang rubbed her arm and said pitifully, "I don't know what I did to make you unhappy that you treated me like this."
Her soft but aggrieved voice instantly aroused the sympathy of many people, and they cast hostile and condemning glances at Lu Xiang without even realizing it.
Lu Xiang looked at Zheng Wenshuang with a smug look in her eyes, raised her slender eyebrows slightly, and then looked at Chu Jinyan with clear meaning.
Look at the peach blossoms you have attracted, and you always frame me.
Chu Jinyan: “…”
He is so innocent.
Zheng Wenshuang almost fainted from anger when she saw the two people flirting with each other in front of her. She clenched her fists tightly, and her nails dug into her flesh. The pain prevented her from being overwhelmed by jealousy.
The next moment, she met Chu Jinyan's cold gaze, which was like the sharpest blade in the world, slashing down at her head: "Zheng Wenshuang..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Xiang's soft little hand gently patted his back.
Here I come!
Chu Jinyan sensed Lu Xiang's meaning and stopped talking, but the look in his eyes as he stared at Zheng Wenshuang was full of sinister intent.
Lu Xiang looked at Zheng Wenshuang and said nonchalantly, "I pushed you?"
Zheng Wenshuang bit her lip, looked at Chu Jinyan with an embarrassed expression, and said weakly: "Miss Lu must not have done it on purpose, and I don't want to embarrass you, just apologize to me."
He acted as if to say, "Although you are arrogant and domineering because you have the support of the Eighth Prince, I am gentle and generous and will not bother with you."
In the moment they passed each other, no one would notice whether Lu Xiang really pushed her.
She is weak but she is right.
At this moment, most people sympathize with me and are on my side, and that's enough.
Lu Xiang had no way to defend herself, and her vile behavior of bullying others by taking advantage of her power would be spread by those present. Over time, her reputation would become bad. At least the emperor would reconsider whether she was worthy of the Eighth Prince. If a woman with such a bad reputation was allowed to marry into the royal family, it would be a shame for the royal family.
When Zheng Wenshuang thought about Lu Xiang being broken off, a hint of pleasure flashed across her slightly restrained eyes. She was just about to enjoy Lu Xiang's unwilling look as he was forced to apologize to her, but she saw Lu Xiang suddenly reach out his hand towards her and push her hard...
There is a high threshold at the entrance of the theater.
Zheng Wenshuang stepped back and tripped over the threshold, then fell out.
