Chapter 228 Meeting



Finally, three days after Lu Jinghuai went on a "business trip", Lu Yingqian couldn't help but find Lin Yan.

"Sister-in-law, did you have a fight with your brother?" Lu Yingqian hesitated for a long time and finally chose to ask directly.

Lu Jinghuai has been on a "business trip" for three days. Although Lu Jinghuai is not at home, he calls every day to ask about Lu Yingqian and Lin Yan's situation.

By the way, I also want to ask if Lin Yan has ever mentioned me. When I heard the denial, I was obviously disappointed.

Lu Yingqian said that she would not help Lu Jinghuai, but Lu Jinghuai was her brother after all, and she was worried about the big fight between her brother and sister-in-law this time.

When Lin Yan heard the question, she was stunned for a moment, forced a smile, but couldn't say anything to deny it. After all, they lived under the same roof, and Lu Yingqian couldn't fail to see their conflict unless she pretended to be stupid.

I guess Aunt Liu and Uncle Chen have noticed this in the past two days, but they just don’t know how to intervene.

"Sister-in-law, why are you and my brother arguing? If it's my brother's fault, can I help you spit on him too?"

There was seriousness and a bit of worry in Lu Yingqian's eyes.

Lin Yan didn't know how to answer Lu Yingqian's question. She couldn't tell the real reason. She could only say vaguely, "There are some minor conflicts..."

Lu Yingqian still wrinkled her nose and looked at Lin Yan with burning eyes. After Lin Yan fell silent again, she spoke again helplessly.

"Your brother lied to me about something, and I haven't figured it out yet. It will be fine once I figure it out. Don't worry... Just give me some time to figure it out."

Lin Yan's words made Lu Yingqian feel a little relieved. After so many days of cold war, Lu Yingqian was afraid that Lin Yan was planning to abandon her brother.

"Then it's brother's fault!" The little girl's tone suddenly became firm.

Lin Yan was amused by Lu Yingqian's firm words. She chuckled but did not nod in agreement.

Then, Lu Yingqian thought of something and spoke again with an extremely serious expression.

"Sister-in-law... no matter what, if you have a temper, just vent it on your brother. Don't get angry at yourself."

Lin Yan couldn't help laughing, but nodded seriously: "Okay. I know."

After Lu Yingqian left, Lin Yan fell into deep thought. She was thinking about what she and Lu Jinghuai should do next. The two of them couldn't keep on being in a cold war.

At this moment, Lin Yan didn't know whether she should be angry with Lu Jinghuai or feel some other emotion.

It's not that she was angry. Lu Jinghuai just had the ability to read minds but didn't tell her.

After all, it is understandable that if she had the ability to read minds, she would not tell Lu Jinghuai, just like she never thought of telling Lu Jinghuai that she came from a book.

However, there are some things that are acceptable intellectually but unacceptable emotionally. She doesn't know how to face Lu Jinghuai, who can read her mind at any time.

She couldn't guess what Lu Jinghuai was thinking, but Lu Jinghuai saw through her.

Lin Yan rubbed her forehead, feeling overwhelmed.

However, just when she didn't know what to do, she received a message from Li Xiaoyi again.

"Yan Yan, are you free this weekend? If you are, I would like to treat you to a meal. Thank you for taking me in some time ago."

Lin Yan just realized that she had not replied to the message Li Xiaoyi sent her a few days ago. Lin Yan rubbed her brows. After receiving Li Xiaoyi's message after such a long time, she couldn't say no.

Besides, she hadn't been out for half a month and wanted to go out for some fresh air.

Lin Yan and Li Xiaoyi made an appointment for the weekend. Lin Yan satisfied Li Xiaoyi's desire to repay her gratitude, so the restaurant was booked by Li Xiaoyi.

On the weekend, Lin Yan followed her usual routine and slept until after nine o'clock. After getting up, she simply packed up and prepared to go out.

Lu Yingqian, who had been paying attention to Lin Yan, immediately noticed that Lin Yan was about to go out. She suddenly became nervous and hurried over to ask.

"Where are you going, sister-in-law?"

Lin Yan felt helpless when she saw Lu Yingqian's nervous expression. If someone didn't know her, they would think she was planning to run away from home.

However, Lin Yan also knew her current situation. She was pregnant. Not to mention the destination, Lu Yingqian would probably be too nervous to let her go out alone.

Lin Yan could only briefly explain her plan to meet Li Xiaoyi, and then comforted Lu Yingqian, who was slightly relieved.

"Don't worry, I'm not running away from home. I'm just going to see some friends and relax."

Lu Yingqian also nodded quickly: "It's good to relax, it's good to relax. It's easy to feel suffocated when staying at home every day."

With a driver taking them the whole way, nothing would go wrong. It was just after eleven o'clock when they arrived at the restaurant they had agreed to meet.

Li Xiaoyi also knew that Lu Yingqian was pregnant, so she didn't wait in the private room but at the restaurant door.

When he saw the Lu family's car coming, he took a few steps forward and was surprised to see Lin Yan's belly.

"Is your belly already this big? I should have asked you out for dinner earlier."

Li Xiaoyi said this, but Lin Yan knew it was unlikely. Li Xiaoyi had just found a job some time ago, paid the rent, and bought daily necessities.

With all the expenses, how much money would I have left to treat her to dinner? I guess I've had a little more money recently.

However, at this time, Lin Yan didn't say anything to expose the truth. The two of them walked directly into the restaurant and ordered food.

"Yan Yan, let's order the food first and talk while we eat. Otherwise, you are still pregnant and it will be bad for you and the baby if they are hungry."

Lin Yan got up late and had breakfast before coming. She was not really hungry at the moment, but she still followed the host's lead and went in to sit down.

The waiter handed over the menu. Li Xiaoyi ordered a dish first and then gave the menu to Lin Yan.

"Yan Yan, you're still pregnant, and I don't know what your appetite is. Just order whatever you want. Don't be polite with me."

Lin Yan took the menu and simply ordered a sour dish. She knew Li Xiaoyi's situation and that he needed money everywhere in North City. After ordering one dish, he didn't continue.

However, Li Xiaoyi, seeing that Lin Yan only ordered one dish, felt that it was not enough, so she took the order sheet and added another dish and a soup before stopping.

"How's your work going?" Lin Yan also took the initiative to care about Li Xiaoyi's situation.

Li Xiaoyi smiled and said, "It's not bad. The work isn't tiring. I've had a falling out with my family, and I don't have to send money home. Maybe I can even save a lot of money."

Lin Yan also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was with her help that Li Xiaoyi set the date.

Lin Yan was relieved that Li Xiaoyi was living a good life, and the two of them continued to talk about some light topics.

After the food came, the two of them ate and chatted, talking about their college days.

"Yan Yan, do you still remember Zhou Ming?" Li Xiaoyi suddenly asked.

"Huh?" Lin Yan was stunned for a few seconds before she recalled this person and asked, "What happened to him?"

"He's in North City too."
