At noon, Tong Miaomiao took a day off. Lin Yan remembered Liao Wen's call and took the initiative to ask Lu Jinghuai to have lunch together.
The two did not go out to eat. Lin Yan ordered takeout online and had it delivered directly to Lu's.
During the meal, Lin Yan asked casually, "How are Mr. Ji and his fiancée getting along?"
Lu Jinghuai was a little surprised and looked sideways at Lin Yan. When did Lin Yan like to pay attention to other people's love lives?
"It seems pretty good." Lu Jinghuai still answered, but after thinking carefully, he couldn't think of any other description, so he could only continue: "There have been too many things going on recently, and we haven't gotten together, but marriages in the circle are all like this, it's not much different."
The couple is neither good nor bad. Regardless of their feelings, they mainly join forces for the development of the company. No matter what they do behind the scenes, they show that they are in love.
Lin Yan said "Oh" and explained when she met Lu Jinghuai's gaze.
"Liao Wen is coming back with her boyfriend." Lin Yan emphasized the second half of the sentence.
Lu Jinghuai understood what she meant and thought for a moment before consoling her: "Ji Mingyuan wouldn't do anything wrong. He's not a confused person."
Ji Mingyuan is a smart man. Now that he has made a choice, he will stick to it.
Lin Yan also understood what Lu Jinghuai meant and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, they both have their own lives."
Lin Yan didn't take this matter to heart, mainly because Liao Wen's family had gone bankrupt a long time ago, and after Liao Wen and Ji Mingyuan separated, their circles had become different.
North City is very big. Generally speaking, as long as two people have no other thoughts and are in different circles, they will basically not meet each other.
Moreover, compared to Ji Mingyuan and Liao Wen, Lin Yan was more concerned about the situation on Song's mother's side.
According to the original speculation, with Zou Long as a witness, Song's mother would not be able to escape the charge of attempted murder, and even if Song's father was involved, she would still have to go to jail for several years.
Lu Jinghuai didn't want to waste any more energy on this matter, so he directly entrusted the matter to a lawyer.
However, just a few days before the court session, something unexpected happened.
Song's mother presented a certificate showing that she was mentally ill. Zou Long was sentenced to three years in prison, but Song's mother was not sentenced.
Lin Yan was completely stunned. How could this happen? Lu Jinghuai's face didn't look good either.
When the court verdict came out, Song's father even called Lu Jinghuai.
"Jing Huai, I didn't expect that Yaya's matter would bring such great psychological pressure to your Aunt Song, causing her to do so many foolish things. I am sorry for you. If you want any compensation, just tell Uncle Song. I will do my best for you."
Song's father's tone was "very sincere", but he did not get a response from Lu Jinghuai.
"Uncle Song, there's no need for compensation. After all, you and Aunt Song have taken good care of me over the years."
Lu Jinghuai's tone was unusually serious. He didn't expect Song's mother to do this, or perhaps it was Song's mother who had planned this from the beginning?
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jinghuai's expression calmed down and he dialed a number.
This was the first time that Song's mother had shown direct hostility towards the Song family, so he had to act quickly next time.
On the other side, after learning about the result of Song's mother, Grandma Lin didn't know what to feel for a moment. She was too embarrassed to see Lu Jinghuai again. After a long silence, she asked her eldest cousin Lin to take her back to Huaicheng.
She understood that Song's mother was no longer the same. Although she was still her daughter, she really could no longer control her.
The circle soon learned about the affairs of the Song and Lu families and discussed them. Many people speculated about how much truth there was in Song's mother's so-called abnormal mental state.
There was even a time when the wives of wealthy families were having afternoon tea together and this matter was discussed.
Some people also understood Song's mother. Her husband brought home an illegitimate child, and her only daughter died in an accident due to Lu Jinghuai. It was normal for her to be crazy.
Some even stood up for Song's mother and condemned Lu Jinghuai: "After what happened to the Lu family, he took care of the Song family for many years. Now that their daughter is in trouble because of him, even if Madam Song is wrong, she shouldn't hold on to it."
Then someone else asked, "Song Jingya was quite devoted to Lu Jinghuai at the beginning, so why didn't she marry him? According to the relationship between the two families, even a marriage of convenience would have been a natural outcome."
"Isn't Mrs. Ma from the Lu family also married through an arranged marriage?" This also means that Lu Jinghuai doesn't need love to get married.
At this time, someone else seemed to know something and spoke up: "I heard that the Song family disagreed."
"The Song family is unwilling? Lu Jinghuai's conditions are so high, and the Lu family has no elders above them, so why don't they agree?"
Several people looked at each other, not knowing the reason. However, they were all wives of different families and were not stupid. They sensitively realized that there might be some unknown secrets, so they changed the subject.
…
However, these discussions in private eventually reached the ears of the Song family.
When Song's father heard this, his face turned obviously ugly. Tang Zexing was a little confused and couldn't help but ask Song's father.
"Dad, why didn't you let me... marry Lu Jinghuai?"
After Song Jingya got into trouble, Tang Zexing respectfully called Song Jingya "sister".
Song's father was unable to answer this question. How should he describe his previous plan?
Of course, Song's father had already regretted it at this time. If he had known that Song Jingya was such a disappointing person, he might as well have married Song Jingya to Lu Jinghuai.
Thinking of this, Song's father's face became even uglier, but he didn't notice that Tang Zexing's eyes opposite him darkened slightly.
In the end, Song's father simply said a few words: "The two of them are not suitable. Your aunt does not agree."
