Chapter 19 My Wife Wants to Become My Niece's Wife
Lin Lan rolled her eyes at Xu Shiming with an unclear expression and said coldly, "Sun Meixi said that Wang Sheng's cooperation with the Lu family has been stopped, and he is now too busy to take care of himself."
Even if she didn't say it, Xu Shiming would know about it.
"Really?" Xu Shiming put down the building blocks in his hand, very excited.
"That's great! This way Sang Wan doesn't have to marry him. With Sang Wan's current fame, she might be worth more."
Xu Mingyue was unhappy that her father didn't care about her affairs. "Dad, don't always think about Sang Wan. Think of a way for me. I want to marry into the Lu family."
"You have to work hard to win Young Master Lu's favor."
Xu Shiming was a little helpless. Everyone could see that Lu Jinxuan didn't like Xu Mingyue. What could he do?
But Sang Wan would never be able to enter the Lu family.
Lin Lan glanced at Xu Shiming with dissatisfaction and patted her daughter's hand. "Don't worry, Mom will help you find a solution."
After washing up, Sang Wan started drawing in the study. He had been feeling uneasy these past few days and hadn't felt so peaceful in a long time. He felt like everything in his head was coming out.
Lu Jinxuan: Miss Sang, are you free tomorrow night?
Lu Jinxuan: I don’t mean anything else, I just feel that the company stood you up, I’m very sorry.
Sang Wan looked at the message and thought of Lu Jinxuan. He seemed quite innocent. It would be a pity if he fell into the trap of Xu Mingyue.
With the idea that saving people from danger would be a great deed and it would also make the mother and daughter angry to death, Sang Wan agreed.
——
The next day, the night deepened.
In the private room of an elegant private restaurant, the scent of sandalwood wafts through the air.
Lu Jinxuan sat opposite Sang Wan somewhat awkwardly, his eyes drifting towards her from time to time, then quickly retracting, his ears slightly red.
"Ms. Sang...Ms. Sang, thank you for your presence."
Seeing that he was a little nervous, Sang Wan thought that this eldest grandson of the Lu family was actually shy and did not have the dandy air of a wealthy family at all.
Sang Wan picked up the teacup and took a sip with an elegant gesture. "Mr. Lu, you're too polite. Just call me Sang Wan."
She was wearing a moon-white dress today, which made her skin look even whiter. Her long, soft hair was casually draped, making her look less bright and more gentle like the girl next door.
Lu Jinxuan looked at her, his heart beating faster. He mustered up the courage to ask, "What is your relationship with my uncle?"
Sang Wan curled her lips. It seemed that she had indeed been misunderstood at Wang Sheng’s birthday party last time.
"I just met your uncle."
"How could that be? My uncle stopped all cooperation between Lu Corporation and my cousin because of you."
Sang Wan was stunned. No wonder Xu Shiming didn't force her these two days. It turned out that Wang Sheng was too busy to take care of himself.
"Mr. Lu, how can you say that? I really just met your uncle, and that day I just took advantage of the situation to get rid of Wang Sheng's entanglement."
Lu Jinxuan was puzzled. "Then why did my uncle suddenly cut off all cooperation with my cousin? My cousin even begged my mother for help."
Sang Wan's heart was filled with ripples. Could it be that Lu Tingzhou was really doing this for her?
He doesn't like me, and even feels a little disgusted with me. How is that possible?
Thinking of this, Sang Wan smiled awkwardly and said, "There must be another reason."
After hearing what Sang Wan said, Lu Jinxuan felt relieved. Come to think of it, his uncle didn't seem to like women.
So, he mustered up his courage and said, "Sang Wan... Actually, I fell in love with you... at first sight."
Sang Wan's hand holding the cup paused slightly, and she looked up at him. There was a hint of surprise in her clear eyes, which then turned into a faint smile.
Words that sound familiar.
"Mr. Lu, you're joking too much."
Lu Jinxuan became anxious, his cheeks redder: "I'm not kidding! I'm serious! I know this may be a bit abrupt, but I hope... I hope you can give me a chance to pursue you."
The tone is sincere and the eyes are eager.
Sang Wan put down the teacup and tapped the table lightly with her fingertips, making a slight sound.
"Lu Jinxuan, I was actually using you. I...I apologize to you."
She changed her address, her tone gentle but with a sense of distance that left no room for questioning.
"I can see that you're not passionate about Xu Mingyue, so I want you to give up on her. To put it bluntly, I just want to piss off Xu Mingyue."
Lu Jinxuan was stunned, obviously not expecting Sang Wan to be so frank.
Although he could vaguely feel it.
Sang Wan looked at him and continued, "Xu Mingyue appears innocent and kind in front of you, but she's not a good match. She approached you simply because she was attracted by the Lu family's background. Of course, I'm not a good person either. I just don't want her to succeed."
Speaking of Xu Mingyue, Lu Jinxuan was helpless. He didn't know what kind of drug Xu Mingyue had given his mother. She was determined that he would marry Xu Mingyue.
"I never liked her in the first place! It's my mom who insisted on bringing us together!"
Sang Wan smiled and said, "It seems your future path will be difficult."
Lu Jinxuan didn't expect that after he mustered up the courage to confess his feelings, the topic would turn to this point.
"Even if it's difficult, I have to go. My uncle had a hard time before, but he was able to overcome all obstacles, so can I."
Sang Wan looked at him and smiled. This kid is really good. He must not be harmed by Xu Mingyue and her mother.
"Now that we've spoken, I won't hide it anymore." Sang Wan's lips curled up cunningly, "I don't like my younger brother. If Mr. Lu isn't mad at me, we can be friends. Calling me Miss Sang seems strange. I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, we can still be brother and sister."
"Sister Wan...Sister Wan?"
The object of his pursuit suddenly became his sister, and he was not able to accept it so quickly.
Before he even had the chance to refute, Sang Wan had already defined their relationship.
"If Master Lu feels that I'm above your station, you can just call me Sang Wan."
In fact, Sang Wan just wanted to stop him from having such thoughts, so it didn’t matter whether she called him sister or not.
"No, no, that's not what I meant."
He hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "Sister Wan."
There was a hint of shyness in his tone, as well as a childish excitement.
Although this bright and charming woman in front of him rejected him, he was quite happy to accept the way she rejected him, and the tension in his heart dissipated.
Sang Wan nodded with satisfaction, then changed the subject and said in a distressed tone, "By the way, Jinxuan, I need to ask you for a favor."
"Sister Wan, you say!"
Lu Jinxuan looked solemn, as if he had no choice but to do his job.
"It's like this," Sang Wan tapped her temples with her slender fingers, revealing a hint of annoyance. "I got to know your uncle because I accidentally hit his car a few days ago..."
She downplayed the previous "bumping into a car" incident, saying it was just an accidental rear-end collision.
"I wanted to settle it privately. After all, it's not a big deal. But I don't have your uncle's contact information, you see..."
Sang Wan blinked with a hint of pleading.
When Lu Jinxuan heard this, he immediately said, "It's a small matter! My uncle looks cold, but he actually has a good heart. I'll give you his phone number and WeChat. He won't make things difficult for you."
As he spoke, Lu Jinxuan took out his cell phone and handed Lu Tingzhou's phone number and WeChat business card to Sang Wan.
"Thank you." Sang Wan's lips curled up, her goal achieved.
After getting Lu Tingzhou's contact information, Sang Wan began to hesitate again.
My fingertips hovered over the screen, and that blurry figure seemed familiar.
She stared at it for a moment, but hesitated to click on the "add friend" request.
People already dislike her so much, yet she's still so eager to help...
Isn’t that too undignified?
Sang Wan bit her lower lip lightly, and finally just silently saved the number into her phone address book, with the note: Lu Tingzhou.
She didn’t add me on WeChat.
The meal ended in a fairly relaxed atmosphere.
Lu Jinxuan opened the car door for Sang Wan like a gentleman.
At this moment, Lu Tingzhou and Shen Yubai walked out one after another.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Tingzhou's face darkened and he stopped.
Chen Yubai was leaning casually on the porch pillar, and at a glance he caught a glimpse of the slender figure who was about to get into the car downstairs, and the attentive Lu Jinxuan beside her.
"Tsk," Chen Yubai stroked his chin, his peach blossom eyes narrowed, his tone full of teasing, "Isn't that Xiaoxuan? The one next to him... Oh, that's the little beauty who teased you the day before yesterday."
He nudged Lu Tingzhou's arm mischievously: "What's going on? Is this... is my wife going to become my niece's wife?"
Lu Tingzhou didn't say anything, his deep eyes still fixed on the two people who had just gotten on the car.
The moment the car window closed, he saw that sweetly smiling face, bright eyes and white teeth, talking and laughing with Lu Jinxuan.
Shen Yubai watched Lu Jinxuan's car drive away, then turned to look at Lu Tingzhou, and his mood seemed to drop a lot.
But who is he? He was born with a bad mouth and loved to stab people. "Jealous? That's just the beginning. When they get married and offer you tea, you have to pay them to change their words. When they have a child and the child calls you grandpa, you have to give them a big red envelope."
Lu Tingzhou withdrew his gaze expressionlessly, pressed his thin lips into a straight line, and walked away with his long legs without saying a word.
No matter how you look at that back figure, there's a gloomy feeling that says "I'm very unhappy".
Shen Yubai raised his eyebrows from behind and smiled silently.
There is hope! Absolutely!
Lu Tingzhou is abnormal.

The next day.
The sunlight shines through the screen window, casting dappled light on the floor of Sang Wan's apartment.
Sang Wan was curled up on the sofa, covered with a thin blanket, concentrating on reading the script in his hand - "The Storm Rises".
The cell phone suddenly rang.
It’s agent Bai Wei.
"Wanwan, are you awake?" Bai Wei's voice was filled with excitement.
"I just woke up and was reading the script." Sang Wan's voice was still a little lazy. "Sister Wei, what's so exciting?"
"Of course it's good news, and it's a huge one!" Bai Wei couldn't hide her excitement. "Do you know Lanqin Technology? It's the top smart technology company in China, with first-class reputation and strength!"
Sang Wan perked up: "Yeah, I know, what's wrong?"
"Their company has a new smart mountaineering device they're developing, and they'd like you to be their spokesperson! Their marketing director just called and wants to arrange a meeting with us to discuss specific collaborations."
Lanqin Technology?
Sang Wan's eyes flashed.
