Chapter 14 This little trick is really low-level
Jiang Yao put down his chopsticks immediately when he saw Jiang Haozhe came back with a bad look on his face.
"Uncle, why do you look so grim? Is it because of that phone call just now? Did something happen?"
Looking at Jiang Yao's concerned face and thinking about Xu Yueyao's vicious face, Jiang Haozhe suddenly felt heartbroken.
He didn't want to spoil Jiang Yao's fun, so he said casually: "It's okay, I just met a barking dog."
Jiang Yao seemed to be thinking about something, and after a moment he spoke to comfort her: "Since they are beasts, how can we, as human beings, treat them like beasts?"
"Haha..." Jiang Haozhe laughed heartily, his mood suddenly improved, and he picked up the chopsticks to pick up some food for Jiang Yao.
"Laiyaoyao, eat more. You are too thin and need to be nourished. From now on, as long as your uncle is around, I will definitely make sure you are plump and no one will let you suffer any injustice."
Jiang Yao felt a warm feeling in his heart. It was so good to feel cared for.
After dinner, Jiang Haozhe drove over and Jiang Yao waited outside.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she pushed the door open, she happened to meet several familiar-looking people coming out chatting and laughing.
In front were Lu Xuan and Xu Yueyao walking hand in hand.
Following behind were Lu Xuan’s parents, and...Xu Yueyao’s parents.
They were also her former parents.
The moment the two sides met, the air became stagnant for a moment.
Lu Xuan's expression changed, and he almost subconsciously pulled away Xu Yueyao's hand.
Even he himself doesn't know why he did this.
This action made Xu Yueyao so angry that she gritted her teeth.
She suppressed her anger, took Lu Xuan's arm again, and greeted her sweetly, "Sister, what a coincidence! You're here for dinner too."
Jiang Yao came to his senses and didn't intend to pay any attention to her.
About to leave.
But Xu Yueyao blocked her way.
"Wait a minute, sister. Since we've met, I just happen to have something to tell you."
At this point, she paused for two seconds, then boasted with a smile: "I'm going to get Xuan engaged soon, and our two families have already agreed. After all, we were once a family. My engagement party is such an important day, you must come to attend it, okay?"
Jiang Yao paused. Although he had been mentally prepared, he still found it extremely ironic to hear the news of their engagement with his own ears.
If it were in the past, she would indeed be in pain and feel uncomfortable.
But unfortunately, she has let it go.
Xu Yueyao's little tricks are really low-level.
She didn't say anything for a moment. Xu Yueyao took in her expression and felt that she was hit hard. She was complacent in her heart, but put on an innocent expression on her face.
"Sister, don't you want to?"
She then turned to her mother Cheng Peilan for help.
"Mom, can you please ask my sister for me? I really want to share my happiness with her."
Cheng Peilan's face turned very bad the moment she saw Jiang Yao.
"Yaoyao, you are too kind. Her departure robbed you of eighteen years of your life, your happiest moments. Why should you let an imposter participate?" Cheng Peilan said in a very unkind tone, "She doesn't deserve to go."
Besides, she also knew about the entanglement between Lu Xuan and Jiang Yao over the years.
If we let her go, wouldn't that cause trouble?
Looking at his adoptive mother's defensive eyes, Jiang Yao still felt a little pain in his heart.
Once upon a time, her adoptive mother was also very gentle and loving to her.
Treat her like your own daughter.
But now, he hates it as if it were an enemy.
Everything has changed.
"mom--"
Xu Yueyao walked over to her coquettishly, shook her arm, and pretended to be understanding and said, "Those things are in the past. I don't mind them anymore. Just let me come! I also heard that she has a new boyfriend. She can bring him over when the time comes."
She deliberately emphasized the word "boyfriend" and a look of pride flashed across her face.
Haha, no matter what, she has already won Lu Xuan over, and as for Jiang Yao, I wonder which "boyfriend" she will bring over then?
She just didn't believe it. Would those well-known men just play with her, or would they really admit openly that they were her boyfriend?
Seeing this, Cheng Peilan could only turn her gaze coldly to Jiang Yao, "Did you hear that? Yaoyao is willing to give you face and ask you to come, so you come."
“…” Jiang Yao ignored him and turned his silent gaze to the other side, to the faces of Lu’s parents.
Once, in order to make Lu Xuan happy, she even helped him take good care of his parents.
She helped them with all kinds of chores, including serving tea, massaging shoulders and backs, and buying various supplements.
But now, too, there was no expression on their faces when they looked at her.
It was as if she was a stranger and he had never known her.
At this moment, she suddenly found it very funny.
She finally set her eyes on Lu Xuan's face and said word by word: "Are you sure you want me to go?"
Lu Xuan clenched his hands unconsciously in his pockets.
He originally felt a little guilty.
But when he thought about how Jiang Yao had been confronting him, stealing his projects, and even blocking him.
It's simply lawless.
Thinking of this, a nonchalant expression appeared on his face again, "Whatever you want."
These two simple words broke the last bit of good impression Jiang Yao had for him.
She completely gave up.
"Okay, I'll go then."
Lu Xuan was stunned.
He looked at Jiang Yao's face and saw a brilliant smile suddenly appear on his face, bold and dazzling. "Since you dare to invite me, I dare to go!"
Such a smile made Lu Xuan feel extremely dazzling.
But he soon thought that she was pretending not to care to hide her inner pain.
After all, we have been together for so many years.
How could she give up?
Xu Yueyao obviously thought so too, and her face was filled with arrogance and pride for a moment.
Jiang Yao glanced at the two of them coldly, and suddenly said meaningfully, "Mr. Lu, Ms. Xu, please don't regret letting me attend the engagement party."
I originally wanted to seek revenge on Xu Yueyao.
This was the perfect opportunity.
She also needs to start planning some things.
After saying that, she turned around and left gracefully.
Xu Yueyao frowned unhappily, and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
Could it be that this woman dares to cause trouble?
But she quickly calmed down.
If Jiang Yao really dared to do this, the Xu family would definitely not forgive her this time.
When the time comes, she will definitely beat the man who is down and never give him a chance to turn things around.
…
Shortly after Jiang Yao came out, the Cayenne stopped right in front of her.
Jiang Haozhe took the initiative to get out of the car, open the door for her, and send her back to the villa first. He had other things to deal with next.
But before leaving, he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Yaoyao."
Jiang Yao turned around and met Jiang Haozhe's worried gaze. "If you encounter any trouble that you can't handle, you must find your uncle first, okay?"
