Liu Xiangnan was a little confused. Why did the sofa have to be moved away?
"Oh, I was just packing up my books. I accidentally broke the sofa, so I'm going to replace it with a new one."
Liu Xiangnan took a look and found that the sofa cushion had signs of breakage.
She couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
It seems that there is no good place to go tonight.
She looked again and saw that the things on the desk in the study were still there, so she took them back to the bedroom and put them in the closet.
Lu Xiangbei looked at her coming back, his eyes twinkling slightly: "Our one-hour English conversation today hasn't even started yet."
Liu Xiangnan:! ! !
Kill her!
She didn't want to talk at all...
"It's late..."
She tried to say it was too late, so that Lu Xiangbei would temporarily spare her life.
However, Lu Xiangbei's next words made her feel like a thorn in her side.
"Do small town test-takers think 11pm is late?"
The five words "small town test-taker" were probably spoken by rich people like Lu Xiangbei.
Liu Xiangnan's fear of English was suppressed by her deep-seated pride in not wanting to be looked down upon by the rich.
She sat up straight, chest puffed out, eyes bright.
"bring it on!"
Seeing her acting like she was facing an enemy and ready to kill him at any moment, Lu Xiangbei didn't get angry. Instead, he said in English, "The blood in man's bones should not be suppressed."
Liu Xiangnan quickly went over the meaning of each word in his mind and translated it into Chinese characters. He inexplicably felt that he was praising him and was inspired to fight.
However, she did not dare to think about it any further, so she had to ask haltingly in English how he planned to deal with her report of the Zheng family's tax evasion.
"There will be hackers who will clean up all your information for you, don't worry."
After receiving this answer, Liu Xiangnan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why aren't you angry?"
"I'm angry, of course I am. I'm angry that you acted rashly, but I agree with reporting the Zheng family."
Does he agree with reporting the Zheng family?
"Don't you like Zheng Wenjie? Why did you report the Zheng family?"
Did he want to use the destruction of other people's families to force Zheng Wenjie to beg him, just like those domineering CEOs in novels who force love?
And then the two of them started rolling around like this?
Lu Xiangbei narrowed his eyes and frowned slightly, and the overwhelming pressure came down again.
"Who told you that I like Zheng Wenjie?"
Liu Xiangnan:......
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Lu Xiangbei never said that he liked Zheng Wenjie.
"Speak! How did you get the feeling, from whom, that I like Zheng Wenjie?"
His tone was serious and calculating.
Liu Xiangnan was frightened by the seriousness on his face. She was nervous and blurted out everything, "It's just... the wedding dress. The clothes I'm wearing now, the diamond ring, and other things must have taken a long time to prepare. I was sent here at the last minute, so there probably wasn't enough time to find my size. And you were so upset and refused to touch me. Coincidentally, I heard Zheng Wenjie say that you like her, and you wouldn't touch me for her, so I think you like her."
Lu Xiangbei was angered by her words, his breathing became heavier than usual, and he started communicating directly in Mandarin.
"Liu Xiangnan, do you have a pig brain? You just believe everything others say? Do you think that with my status and the person I like is Zheng Wenjie, I would come back to the Lu family from so far away? Do you think you can still sit in front of me and talk to me now?"
Liu Xiangnan:......
Got scolded!
But I’m not sad at all. What’s going on?
"Also, please think carefully! Is the Lu family so short of money that they have to use one wedding dress to marry two brides? Do you think that with the Lu family's financial resources, they would let you wear ill-fitting clothes and inappropriate jewelry?"
Liu Xiangnan bit her lip and thought carefully, realizing that she had indeed underestimated the Lu family's financial resources and overestimated Lu Xiangbei's feelings for Zheng Wenjie.
In the world of the rich, if you want something, it probably only takes an hour, not a day, and everything needed for the wedding will be prepared.
Mr. Lu also agreed to the substitute marriage. Even if he did not investigate her background in detail, he must have checked her basic information such as her height.
Everything was made to her measurements, so she felt it fit perfectly.
If you think carefully about Zheng Wenjie's height and figure, you will find that Zheng Wenjie is actually about five centimeters taller than her, and her frame is slightly wider than hers.
Before, she was worrying about trivial matters and was blinded by one thing.
I couldn't see the difference in their body shapes.
Moreover, what he said made sense. If he really liked Zheng Wenjie, the two of them could just stay at the resort. Why bother coming back to the Lu family? Why did Grandpa Lu ask her to come back?
"I don't touch you because..."
Lu Xiangbei, who was always eloquent, strategic, and talked like a mentor, was stuck for a moment, but he continued speaking soon.
"You're still young, and your feelings for me are probably just out of responsibility. Although we're now legally married, I, Lu Xiangbei, have my own pride. I won't force myself on someone who doesn't have me in their heart and doesn't even know what love is."
Liu Xiangnan looked at Lu Xiangbei in great surprise.
She thought that a rich second-generation like him should be very casual about love and marriage.
I didn't expect that he was such a man of integrity!
I just want to have distance contact with someone who loves me.
"Most importantly, your adoptive father will be dead tomorrow."
Getting the marriage certificate was already the limit, and she didn’t want to do anything ridiculous and offend her adoptive father.
Liu Xiangnan was once again shocked by Lu Xiangbei. Her heart was pounding, her ears were deafening, and she felt moved and guilty.
She really didn't expect that Lu Xiangbei actually knew that tomorrow was the seventh day after her adoptive father's death!
Out of respect for her adoptive father, she endured it all the time.
As the daughter of her adoptive father, she was shameless and was having wild thoughts and feeling sad about some unfounded things.
She really feels guilty towards her adoptive father!
Liu Xiangnan felt sad, and tears started falling as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Lu Xiangbei... Can I hug you?"
Lu Xiangbei coughed lightly, his tone a little unnatural, "Just don't get my clothes wet."
"You are such a nice person! Besides my dad and my adoptive parents, you are the best person to me!"
As soon as Liu Xiangnan finished speaking, he threw himself over, hugged Lu Xiangbei's shoulders and neck tightly, buried his head in Lu Xiangbei's shoulder, and sobbed softly.
After receiving this compliment, Lu Xiangbei raised the corners of his lips slightly, and slowly put his arm around her back, speaking with a little pride.
“That’s good to know!”?
