After hearing his words, Lu Jin returned to her seat and waited patiently.
Just as Li Tianlei had predicted, Lu Shen was already standing in front of Jian Ruoxi when the old lady pointed at her nose and started scolding her.
“Grandma, Jian Ruoxi is right. She is indeed here as a tenant.”
He finally managed to persuade Ruoxi to sign a three-month rental contract.
If Grandma keeps making a fuss like this and drives him away, where will he find her again?
The relationship between the landlord and the tenants on this floor is now the only connection between them.
"Ah Shen, do you think I'm senile?"
The old lady pointed at Jian Ruoxi and said angrily.
"Is she really just a tenant? Who would let their ex-wife still live in their house?"
Could it be that Ah Shen still has feelings for Jian Ruoxi?
What about Anran?
They can't possibly remarry, can they?
She wouldn't agree to that.
"Xiao Jin, your old lady has a pretty sharp mind; she saw through it at a glance," Li Tianlei said with interest.
At least he's better than that Li Anran.
Li Anran still hasn't figured out who Lu Shen really cares about.
"Grandma comes from a wealthy family, so she's bound to be more shrewd than others."
But she couldn't guarantee how much more there would be.
"Grandma, you know I never repeat myself."
"I have told you everything you wanted to know."
The old lady's heart skipped a beat.
How could she have almost forgotten that whatever her grandson was like outside wouldn't change much at home?
Although she is an elder, she still feels a little intimidated when her grandson speaks.
"besides."
Lu Shen continued.
“Grandma, this is my private residence, and it does not belong to the Lu family at all.”
"I want people of a certain status to live here."
"Who dares to object?"
His sharp gaze swept over the old lady and Li Anran, and the two lowered their heads, not daring to say another word.
Li Anran glanced disdainfully at the old lady beside her.
At home, this old lady always spoke of herself as quite formidable.
She claimed to be the eldest in the family and could stand up for her.
When Lu Jin spoke of her, the old lady was nowhere to be seen.
Now that Ah Shen wants to send them away, if Ah Shen says a few more words, the old lady doesn't dare to say a word.
Lu Jin's eyes lit up, and he gave his older brother a thumbs up, unable to help but admire him in his heart.
"It has to be the eldest brother. When he's protecting his wife, he really puts on a show of power."
"If only I had learned this trick from my older brother sooner, I could have protected Tianlei before he left."
"Are there some differences between us?"
She looked up at the stone beside her.
Right now, she had too many doubts in her mind.
Stone, will you answer this for me?
The old lady remained standing there, refusing to leave.
She couldn't understand why Ah Shen would talk back to her for Jian Ruoxi's sake.
"Grandma, let's just leave it at that. Ah Shen wants Ruoxi to stay, so let's not say anything more."
"If Grandpa were here, I think he would agree too."
Jian Ruoxi gave Li Anran a deep look.
She really knows how to time things perfectly, knowing when to say which things to achieve the desired effect.
Mentioning the old man will probably make Grandma even angrier.
"Don't mention him to me!" the old lady shouted angrily.
She admitted that Li Anran was right.
If he were there, he would not only help Ashen keep Jian Ruoxi, but also bring her back to live in the old house.
What really angered her was that she suddenly realized that if that woman had appeared back then, the man surnamed Lu would definitely have brought her home as well.
A look of satisfaction appeared in Li Anran's eyes.
She knew that as long as she said that, the old woman would be furious.
This is because it easily reminds the old woman of her own experiences, which is why the old woman has always been so kind to her.
She always felt that she and she were in the same boat.
"I'm sorry, Grandma, I shouldn't have mentioned Grandpa." She deliberately feigned a frightened expression, as if she were genuinely frightened by the old lady.
Lu Jin frowned slightly; Li Anran really knew how to bring up the most sensitive topics.
If this continues, Grandma's body can't withstand any more strain.
"Stop standing there, all of you! Can't you see the old lady is already angry?"
"Why aren't you taking the old lady home yet?"
As she spoke, she winked at the servants around her.
The servants understood immediately, and a group of them swarmed to the old lady's side, pushing Li Anran out. Three or four of them helped the old lady walk outside.
"I haven't even said I'm going back yet? You dare touch me?"
Lu Jin was already waving goodbye to her grandmother from behind.
"Grandma, please take your time. Remember to let us know when you get home."
As for Li Anran on the other side, she didn't receive such good treatment.
The servants respected the old lady, but they had no respect for Li Anran at all, not to mention that she caused trouble for their favorite Miss Jian.
They're being kind by not rubbing salt into her wound.
Li Anran was dragged along.
"Hey, how can you treat me like this? I'm the future young mistress of the Lu family."
The maid gave her a disdainful look.
"You, the future mistress of the Lu family?"
"If all mistresses are like you, then the Lu family is doomed."
"We probably need to start thinking about running away as soon as possible."
With everyone finally gone, the hall became much quieter.
"Brother, I still need to take the stone back, so I won't stay any longer."
Lu Shen looked up and carefully examined his younger sister's eyes.
Did Xiao Jin finally figure out Shi Tou's true identity?
Or is she just pretending not to know?
When did he become unable to grasp his sister's feelings?
"I'll see you off." Jian Ruoxi then turned to leave with Lu Jin and the others.
If they leave, it will be just me and Lu Shen left at home again.
She felt somewhat lost.
When Li Anran caused trouble last time, she mistakenly thought that Lu Shen didn't believe her.
But judging from the situation today, it seems she was wrong back then.
Lu Shen even spoke up for her.
"No way, it's not like I don't know the way." Lu Jin quickly pushed her back.
Although there was a minor mishap at today's party, overall, it still achieved her initial goal.
It seems that Ruoxi's opinion of her older brother has changed somewhat by now.
Now that the two of them finally have some alone time, if I were to take Ruoxi away again, my brother would glare at me to death.
"You should just stay at home."
"With Stone by my side, nothing will happen, right Stone?"
Lu Jin turned her head and gave the person next to her a meaningful look.
The stone nodded stiffly.
Why does this meeting with Xiao Jin feel so strange?
