People's joys and sorrows are not shared, just as Lu Tianchen didn't know that Ning Rong and An Xing slept together for one night and were kicked awake more than a dozen times, he could only be jealous.
So the shrimps that were gently bouncing just now suddenly made a loud noise and became completely cold.
This scene was so brutal that An Xing covered his eyes in a pretentious manner: "Oh! Xia Xia died so tragically!"
Then tears of sympathy flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Lu Tianchen put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands with the wet towel beside him, and rang the bell to call the waiter. There was a little smile on his face, but he was not in a good mood at all. In this state, he could not prepare the most perfect shrimp for An Xing.
The waiter came in quickly and took the live shrimp away to process it. When he picked up the ice tray, he looked at the miserable dead shrimp and was obviously stunned for a moment, then left the room with doubts.
Lu Tianchen looked at An Xing again, and An Xing looked back at him innocently.
"You guys sleep in the same room, in the same bed?"
“…”
An Xing realized it later and finally understood what Lu Tianchen was angry about.
"Oh, it's because the house was not cleaned up on the first day. Ning Rong moved out last night and I slept alone!"
The man's expression improved visibly.
An Xing bit her fingertips and looked at the man for a while, then stretched out her paw to pat his shoulder.
"Brother Chen, don't be so stingy. Ning Rong just slept with me for one night. When you came to live in my house as a child, we slept together every day."
"Don't worry, I'm still best with you!"
Lu Tianchen: ...
Lu Tianchen picked up the chopsticks again and continued to eat the meat.
The man lowered his eyes, and although he said nothing, his expression was even a little relaxed, but An Xing inexplicably felt that he seemed to be shrouded in a layer of depression and dejection. An Xing scratched his head, a little confused.
Recalling the topic just now, An Xing suddenly realized that since Lu Tianchen was admitted to university, there seemed to be more distance between the two of them, and they were no longer as close as when they were children. Not to mention the year when Lu Tianchen lived in his house, they were almost inseparable, and even after Lu Tianchen returned to the Lu family, he would come to play with him from time to time.
It seemed that they had become estranged only when Lu Tianchen became an adult and started college and graduate school. An Xing had also been surprised before, but Lu Tianchen avoided talking about it.
Is this the legendary secret of adults?
They haven't slept in the same bed for several years, no wonder the man is jealous!
An Xing felt that he had grasped the key point and took the initiative to move forward.
"Brother Chen, if you have nothing to do on the weekend, come to my house and we can sleep together! Or I can go to your place and play with you!"
Lu Tianchen turned his head, met the boy's bright and round eyes, and sighed silently.
"Okay, I know you and I are best."
The young man curved his eyes and smiled, then picked up a piece of meat for the man to please him. He ate happily while continuing to talk about family matters.
An Xing's voice is clear, lively and youthful, always full of vitality. When talking about happy things, her speaking speed will gradually speed up, and her laughter will make the audience happy. But at this moment, Lu Tianchen had a smile on his face, but his mood was really a little erratic.
He could guess what the An family and the Shen family thought of him. They must have thought that he was hesitant about whether to continue his engagement with An Xing because of An Xing's background.
But in fact, he didn't need to consider this matter at all - he was engaged to An Xing only because it was An Xing, not because of his last name. No matter who An Xing was mistakenly adopted by, he would not cancel the engagement.
There are actually two reasons why he stopped talking about this matter recently. First, he was worried that the real young master of the An family had bad intentions and would interfere if he knew that An Xing and he were engaged.
Of course, based on what he has observed so far, Ning Rong should not do this.
The second reason he no longer mentioned it was An Xing’s attitude.
Having grown up together, Lu Tianchen knew An Xing very well. Even though he went abroad for a year, after coming back, they met a few times and chatted with each other on a regular basis. He easily got the little fool's view on choosing a spouse - a suitable match, reliable character, and good to him and the An family.
Although he studied art, An Xing is very pragmatic. He does not pursue illusory love. What he values more is knowing people well and getting along well with them.
Therefore, Lu Tianchen's initial plan was to take advantage of his proximity to An Xing and stamp the little fool first. After stamping, he could slowly wait for An Xing to open up and slowly cultivate feelings.
But no one expected that the An family had taken the wrong child.
So the question is, when discussing the engagement again, they will inevitably face a problem - why does he want to get engaged to An Xing?
If it was a marriage for the sake of profit, then the person he wanted to marry should be the real young master of the An family, and he should have nothing to do with An Xing.
If it wasn't for profit, then he would have to let An Xing know his feelings.
So he couldn't bring up the marriage proposal recently, because if he did, he would have to confess his love. And based on his understanding of An Xing, if he was confessed to when he was not yet enlightened and not moved, the little fool would definitely advise him that "there are many better fish in the sea" and "I always treat you as my brother"...
That is to say, the confession will inevitably fail. Not only will he be blocked, but even the engagement will be cancelled.
Looking at the shrimps that were processed and served by the waiter, Lu Tianchen felt that he was no different from them and was facing the same torturous situation.
"...An Hao started to provoke Ning Rong, and then he said he wanted to intern at the company, and An Hao was stunned."
Completely unaware of the man's worries, An Xing danced and talked about what happened at home last night. When I thought of An Hao's ugly face last night, I felt like I could eat another pound of meat!
Although Lu Tianchen was worried, multitasking was a standard for a CEO, so when he heard the key words, he asked:
"Uncle An agreed to let Ning Rong join An Ning Jewelry?"
"Yes, Dad will take Ning Rong to the company today."
Seeing that the man had been serving her meat without eating much, An Xing hurriedly grabbed the serving chopsticks and took several pieces of meat. Lu Tianchen ate it without hesitation, and then asked:
"So what are your plans next?"
An Xing tilted her head in confusion, with a bewildered look in her almond eyes. Lu Tianchen sighed and explained it more clearly.
"Now that the An family has found their biological son, and he's not bad either, you probably won't inherit the An family's company... So what do you plan to do in the future?"
An Xing paused, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.
The future... He really hasn't figured out what to do in the future.
He is twenty years old this year and will be a junior when school starts. He studies art because he likes it and his family supports it.
He used to be the young master of the An family. He could not spend all the money in the family even if he did not work for a lifetime, not to mention that he did not like to spend money. It was just his various handicraft hobbies that cost more money. But compared with the family property, the money he spent was just a drop in the bucket.
In his previous life, he had a car accident and ended his life without thinking about the future. In this life, he can think about the future.
Since he was not the biological son of the An family, he certainly could not continue to be a young master who lived a life of idleness and waiting for death. His biological parents were just ordinary teachers, and they did not seem to have much savings, just a house. Even if the house was to be demolished, he did not intend to ask Ning Rong for money.
So what are you going to do next...
The young man was in a daze while chewing the meat slice. After a long while, he slowly spoke.
"I don't know, maybe... let Ning Rong get closer to mom and dad first."
Lu Tianchen:?
The man almost dropped his chopsticks. Why was Ning Rong everywhere?
"He seems a little distant from his parents right now. I have to find a way to bring them closer!"
An Xing felt that he was still more concerned about the An family. He couldn't live his life without seeing Ning Rong inherit the family business and rub An Hao to the ground.
The boy clenched his fists, his eyes determined.
"I'll try to get them close before school starts, then I can start my own business!"
Lu Tianchen: ...
Lu Tianchen picked up a shrimp and touched the boy's head.
Forget it, let this little fool just eat and drink. He has a rich family fortune, so it's easy for him to support a star.
After eating and drinking, and playing outside for a while, when An Xing returned home, An Zhaoming, Chen Ying and Ning Rong had already finished dinner and were chatting in the living room. Although Ning Rong spoke less, most of the time it was Chen Ying who spoke and the man agreed, but the atmosphere between the three was still harmonious.
An Xing stood at the entrance, suddenly feeling a little at a loss.
In an instant, he suddenly realized that when Ning Rong was completely integrated into the An family, it would probably be... the time for him to leave the An family.
Ning Rong and he, who were mistakenly taken away, must return to their respective positions. Ning Rong is a member of the An family, and he is not. Even if he still regards An Zhaoming and Shen Ying as his parents, he cannot continue to live in this villa with a thick face.
When Chen Ying turned around, she saw the boy standing at the entrance in a daze, with a pair of light brown eyes that seemed to have a faint light of water. She couldn't help but turn around and shouted worriedly.
"Star?"
The boy quickly looked up, a sweet smile appeared on his little round face, he ran over and sat on the sofa, acting coquettishly and intimately with the woman.
"Mom, it feels like a long time since I last saw you!"
There was no change in the boy's face. Chen Ying looked at him carefully and thought it was probably her illusion. She smiled and patted the boy, pointing at Ning Rong.
"Your brother's first day at work today. I was just asking him how he was doing. You can come and listen."
Hearing this, An Xing looked over curiously.
"So how are you doing?"
Ning Rong leaned back on the sofa, much more casual than when he first came to the An family villa. Seeing two pairs of almond-shaped eyes looking at him, the beautiful woman and the little round-faced brother were both full of expectation, his heart softened, but he did not spoil the fun.
"It's OK. Everyone gets along well."
He paused and his eyes fell on An Xing.
"Yang Yong... Brother Yang is very friendly to me. Did you mention me to him?"
An Xing quickly raised his hand and swore.
"I didn't tell him your identity. I just said you were my friend and asked him to take care of you if it was convenient for him!"
When he was interning in the marketing department, An Hao suppressed him in various ways. At that time, An Xing concealed his identity. Because An Hao was An Zhaoming's nephew, no one in the marketing department dared to be too friendly to him in public. Only Yang Yong didn't care about An Hao's opinion at all. He took An Xing to understand various businesses and told him a lot of things he should learn when entering the society.
It can be said that An Xing now gets along well with everyone in the design department, thanks to the workplace social knowledge that Yang Yong taught him.
So when Ning Rong went to work today, he sent a message to Yang Yong early in the morning, asking him to take care of Ning Rong. Yang Yong was a warm-hearted person, and he would not be perfunctory if he agreed. Ning Rong would also remember Yang Yong's kindness in the future. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?
An Xing raised his tail proudly, feeling very great.
"Well, he is very nice indeed. Thank you."
Ning Rong smiled.
An Xing asked again with concern: "Did An Hao give you any trouble? If he asks you to do a lot of hard and tiring work, ignore him! Tell Dad! He likes to PUA others, don't believe him!"
An Xing got angry when he talked about this. He blamed himself for being too young back then and being fooled by An Hao's provocation, doing a bunch of useless work. He couldn't let Ning Rong make the same mistake again.
A smile flashed in the boy's eyes: "He won't do anything to me."
Although he had only met An Hao a few times, Ning Rong could tell that this man was a weak person. He bullied An Xing secretly, approached him secretly, and tried to sow discord between them in a sarcastic way, not daring to confront him head-on.
This kind of person is indeed capable of playing dirty tricks, but would Ning Rong be afraid of him playing dirty tricks?
He is not An Xing, who was so stupid that he didn't even notice that he was being bullied for a long time.
"You don't have to worry about him."
An Zhaoming shook the documents in his hand and coughed lightly.
"I founded the company. Even if he wants to do something, he has to ask me first. Even if neither of you wants to inherit the company in the future, the money dad earns can support you for the rest of your lives."
The man glanced at Ning Rong.
"Rongrong, you too, don't feel too stressed. Now that you've joined the company, just seize the opportunity to learn. After all, having many skills is always a plus."
The boy nodded: "I know."
Chen Ying smiled: "Rongrong is awesome!"
Ning Rong's eyes were somewhat helpless, yet very gentle.
The father is loving, the mother is gentle, and the son is filial. Who wouldn't feel warm when seeing this family of three?
An Zhaoming secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that his own son would not be able to integrate into the family, but it seemed that he had been worrying too much. And the current harmony was also thanks to the relationship between An Xing and Ning Rong, which made everything go smoothly.
Xiao Yi was right. Their boy Xingxing is indeed a lucky little star.
The man reached out and touched the kid's head: "Learn from your brother and work hard in the design department. Try to make a name for yourself in the future!"
“…”
An Xing looked at the man, then at her mother and Ning Rong, and responded obediently.
"Okay."
No way.
Once you guys get along well, I'll be on my own!
