Chapter 40 Why do you have an opinion?
The speed at which gossip spread was even faster than Xia Nanxing had imagined.
As soon as she got back, Ye Shuya called.
"Xingxing, what wicked thing did Lu Huaijin do today? Why did Lu Jiashu even want to beat him up?"
Ever since the identities of the real and fake young master were exposed, Lu Jiashu seemed to be inexplicably inferior to Lu Huaijin. In public, he had never embarrassed Lu Huaijin, let alone fought with him.
As soon as the two sides started fighting, Ye Shuya immediately concluded that it must be Lu Huaijin's fault.
Xia Nanxing could finally vent out what he had been holding back in his heart.
"Lu Huaijin is really crazy. He actually wants me to be with Lu Jiashu! Is there no man left in this world? Do I have to find one in the Lu family? Lu Jiashu is also a bastard. Damn it, he actually teamed up with Lu Huaijin to cheat me. What do they think of me? Am I, Xia Nanxing, someone they can arrange for at will?"
Ye Shuya wanted to smear Lu Huaijin as much as she could, but she was afraid that she had not smeared him enough.
But Lu Jiashu is also her friend, and she can't scold Lu Jiashu mindlessly.
"Xingxing, why don't you stop cursing? I'll send you a video. I think you may have misunderstood Lu Jiashu. He's not that kind of person."
The video Ye Shuya sent over was obviously taken by the onlookers in the store.
The video begins with Xia Nanxing slapping Lu Jiashu.
Because before Xia Nanxing took action, no one knew there would be something to watch, so they were unable to start recording in advance. It was not until Xia Nanxing slapped the second person that everyone reacted.
After watching the video, Xia Nanxing touched her nose in embarrassment as Lu Jiashu beat up Lu Huaijin and defended her, saying that it didn't hurt when she hit people.
She muttered softly, "Who's Lu Jiashu? His last name is Lu, so he's a member of the Lu family. If they go out, everyone would think he's in the same group as Lu Huaijin."
Just like her and Xia Wenbo, if she goes out with Xia Wenbo one day and does something good, others may not necessarily thank Xia Wenbo, but if she does something bad, Xia Wenbo will definitely be beaten with her.
Ye Shuya spoke earnestly, "Xingxing, Lu Jiashu has had a difficult time these past few years. After all, the Lu family still raised him. He had a fight with Lu Huaijin today, so it's definitely going to be difficult for him when he returns."
This was the power of pillow talk. Before Lu Jiashu could even explain, Xia Nanxing had already forgiven him after Ye Shuya's persuasion, and she also reflected on herself.
"Yeah, I really can't blame him. I actually chose this store, but I didn't realize it was Xia Yingying's store. Lu Huaijin going crazy doesn't seem to be his fault. She was just giving me chocolates out of kindness."
Ye Shuya echoed, "It was Lu Huaijin's fault in the first place. He used the excuse of doing it for your own good, but he used you to step on Lu Jiashu. How cunning."
He forcibly introduced the love-brained bootlicker he looked down upon to his younger brother.
This operation doesn't seem right no matter how I think about it.
After hearing what Ye Shuya said, Xia Nanxing instantly understood.
"Lu Huaijin, that bastard, is he trying to kill two birds with one stone? But I've already stopped pestering him. He's still using this trick to drive people away. It's so disgusting."
Lu Huaijin appears to be a gentleman in public, but he never seems to be polite to her.
She knew that being persistent would make people annoyed, but she didn't expect Lu Huaijin to be so petty. Even though he was pregnant with a beautiful woman, he still remembered her grudge.
Xia Nanxing and Ye Shuya were about to scold Lu Huaijin to death, but Xia Wenbo sent a message, which made Xia Nanxing immediately furious.
[Sister, where have you been these past few days? Tell me the truth, are you still entangled with Lu Huaijin?]
There was no news for a few days, and when she showed up again, she was with Lu Huaijin, and she made a big news.
How can it not arouse suspicion?
Xia Nanxing didn't hesitate for a second. He immediately hung up Ye Shuya's phone and called Xia Wenbo.
"How did you come to this conclusion? Are you crazy? I've told you many times that Lu Huaijin and I have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
Xia Wenbo didn't argue with her, but only reminded her: "Sister, you almost made the news again today. The public relations department has suppressed all the videos and photos related to you. Dad will definitely know about this. If you don't come home, you're really going to be finished."
Over the years, Xia Nanxing had received countless scoldings from Xia Zhengyang because of Lu Huaijin. She had never expected that even after the mission was over, she would still be scolded because of Lu Huaijin.
Just let him be scolded, Xia Nanxing is as fearless as a dead pig.
Xia Nanxing pretended to be tough, "Go back if you want. I can't even go back to my own home!"
Isn't it just a storm from the elders? It's not like she hasn't been wet before.
Compared with the Xia family, the storm in the Lu family came earlier than that in the Xia family.
The news about Xia Nanxing was suppressed by the Xia family. The news about the Lu Huaijin brothers was naturally handled by the Lu family.
The jealousy between the two brothers did not cause a big stir outside, but it caused a huge uproar in the Lu family.
As soon as Chairman Lu heard the news, he called the two back.
The two brothers knelt together in the ancestral hall for an hour before being called to the study for questioning.
The longer the time went on, the more serious the bruises on their faces looked. Their two handsome faces became so messed up that Chairman Lu was very upset.
"Look at what you two have done. Isn't it shameful?"
Both of them lowered their heads and said nothing.
"Do you know you're wrong?"
The two men kept their heads down and said nothing. No one admitted their fault.
"You still don't seem to know you're wrong? Fine, both of you go back to the ancestral hall and kneel. When you realize you're wrong, you can get up."
The two of them turned around tacitly and prepared to return to the ancestral hall.
"return!"
Chairman Lu slammed the table in anger, then dropped his airs and asked directly, "What's going on? Lu Jiashu, you speak first."
"Dad, things are just as you see. I have nothing to explain." After saying this, Lu Jiashu stopped talking.
Others can only see the pictures and videos taken by the onlookers, but Chairman Lu can watch the surveillance footage.
Chairman Lu knew the cause of the incident, so there was no need for any additional explanation.
Since his son, who has always been well-behaved and filial, has this attitude, it is even more impossible for the stubborn Lu Huaijin to cooperate.
Chairman Lu didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "So what's going on between you and Xia Nanxing? Jiashu, do you really like Xia Nanxing?"
"Dad, if I say I don't like it, do you believe me?" Lu Jiashu asked back.
"I don't agree!" Chairman Lu said seriously, "Xia Nanxing likes your eldest brother, and everyone knows this. I can't let you be with her."
Before Lu Jiashu could say anything, Lu Huaijin raised his head and asked, "Dad, why don't you agree? I have no objection, so why do you object?"
