Chapter 11: First Confrontation



Lu Wantang probably didn't expect to get this response. She was stunned for a long time before she timidly said, "I'm Lu Wantang, Su Yu's sister."

Su Yu got angry when she saw Lu Wantang, who looked like she was about to cry. Her already angry mood suddenly darkened. "What's wrong?"

"No, I just wanted to say hello to you." Lu Wantang said sullenly.

"Now that we've said hello, you can go." He waved his hand to signal Lu Wantang to get out.

Lu Wantang naturally didn't leave, but Lu Zifeng and Shen Zhou came over.

"How do you talk to Tangtang like that? Are you acting like a sister?" The one who said this was Lu Zifeng, who was protecting his child. Not only did he say this, he also pulled Lu Wantang behind him. It was as if the person in front of him was not his biological sister, but an enemy.

Li Xi said awkwardly, "How do you talk to Xiaoyu like that? Do you act like a brother?"

"You!" Lu Zifeng was furious, but his upbringing since childhood prevented him from yelling at a strange lady, so he could only blurt out "you".

Li Xi, however, was not a hypocrite like him. She said what she wanted to say directly, "What did I say? Did I say something wrong? Didn't you say that first?"

"You!" Lu Zifeng couldn't find any words to refute, after all, that was indeed what he said.

On the other hand, Shen Zhou, who was standing next to him, quickly recovered from his daze and resumed his usual gentlemanly demeanor. "Xiao Yu, good evening. Who is this?"

The words were spoken to Su Yu, but the eyes were looking at Li Xi.

Li Xi was not mistaken; a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes. It was quick, but not absent.

Li Xi secretly spat at him, what a bastard he really was.

"My friend." Su Yu's impression of Shen Zhou wasn't very good. She said she was still observing him, but she was already certain he was a jerk. She no longer had the energy to play along.

Shen Zhou noticed Su Yu's coldness, but didn't take it to heart. He just thought she was jealous of him because he was with Lu Wantang.

If Su Yu knew what he was thinking, she would roll her eyes to the sky, but she didn't know.

Shen Zhou was slightly startled, then continued with his gentle smile, saying in a relaxed tone, "Why don't you introduce us?"

Su Yu originally wanted to say, "Why are you here if you know my friend?", but thinking that they both had to go to the Shen family's cocktail party tomorrow, he didn't say anything and just looked at Li Xi for help.

"Li Xi." Li Xi knew she was waiting for him to make a decision, so she didn't hesitate and just gave him her name. But it seemed like no one present had heard of it before.

"Ms. Li, nice to meet you. I'm Shen Zhou, and I'm a family friend of Xiaoyu's." He said as he extended his hand.

Li Xi looked at the claws handed to her and frowned, "Sorry, my husband told me not to let other men touch me."

"Just a handshake." Shen Zhou was still in a good mood.

The other three people had their own thoughts.

Su Yu knew that Li Xi didn't want to meet a stranger, especially when that stranger was Shen Zhou. She could only secretly complain that she had just said she was in a blind marriage, but now she kept calling him "husband".

Lu Wantang clenched her fists and curled her lips. Seeing the man she loved speaking so tenderly to the beautiful girl, it was impossible not to feel jealous.

Lu Zifeng searched his memory to see if he had heard the name Li Xi before. He thought for a long time but couldn't remember. He simply stood aside and watched the show. Since Lu Wantang wasn't the main character, it didn't matter what happened to him.

"Do you know how many bacteria are produced when two hands are held together for one second? It's so dirty. My husband doesn't allow me to play with dirty things." Li Xi was unreasonable but confident.

“…”

As soon as these words came out, Su Yu burst out laughing.

The other three people had awkward expressions on their faces. Shen Zhou's gentle smile was even twisted for a moment.

Li Xi was very satisfied with the effect of her words. She raised her eyebrows, curled the corners of her mouth, and drove them away in a good mood, "Do you have anything else to do? Our food is cold."

"It's okay, you guys continue eating." Shen Zhou restrained his chapped expression and smiled gently, "Xiaoyu, see you tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned and left without waiting for a reply. Lu Wantang and Lu Zifeng also left together.

Su Yu gave Li Xi a thumbs up and said, "Xixi, I just realized you are so talkative. Didn't you see Shen Zhou's expression just now? It was so colorful. Hehe."

"That's just the beginning. He'll have more to look forward to in the future. Who told him to be a scumbag instead of a good guy? Hehe."

"hey-hey."

The two smiled at each other and continued eating. Finally, no one was interrupting them.

Li Xi won the first battle against the protagonists!
