Chapter 136: A Few More Praises
He doesn't care about his own biological sister, but he cares a lot about his adopted sister. Even if he likes her, it's disgusting. After all, the An family didn't know that An Shuyue was not their biological daughter for more than 20 years.
"I heard that the An family is planning to hold a luxurious birthday party for her and has invited many of Jiangcheng's dignitaries. Miss Shen should also be there."
Shen Nuo had never heard of this matter. She sneered and said, “The An family is really good to their adopted daughter. If you don’t know, you would think that the An family specializes in charity.”
Isn’t An Shuyue’s birthday also An Ning’s birthday? This differential treatment is really disgusting.
Lu Zhiyi could hear her disgust: "So you are not going to go?"
"Go, why not? It's just for An Shuyue."
"Indeed, your Assistant An seems to be the real Miss An."
Xu Yuanyuan was confused and didn't understand. She asked Chen Nuo in a low voice: "What is a real lady?"
Chen Nuo held his chin and looked at her with a smile and said, "You've read the melodramatic domineering president novel, right? It's about the real lady in the True and False Daughter."
Xu Yuanyuan's eyes widened immediately: "Is this actually true?"
"Well, the rich family opposite you has even more powerful secrets. Why don't you ask him to tell you?" Shen Nuo nodded his chin towards Lu Zhiyi.
Xu Yuanyuan: “…No need.” She didn’t dare.
Lu Zhiyi wasn't angry at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "You're just bashing everyone else. That incident had nothing to do with me. Don't take your anger out on me."
Shen Nuo remained calm: "Whoever is angry is just stating a fact."
So what if she took her anger out on the Lu family? She didn't have a good impression of the Lu family anyway, and Lu Zhiyi was probably not someone who was easy to deal with.
Lu Zhiyi admitted defeat: "Alright, alright, I admit it. I did know that Lu Zhining was plotting against Lu Zhizhou, but I didn't expect her to be so stupid as to regard you as a love rival. If I had known, I would have definitely warned you. After all, you would still owe me a favor."
His outspoken attitude surprised Shen Nuo a little, she waved her hand and said: “Forget it, I don’t want to talk about this.”
Anyway, she made some money, so there's nothing more to say.
After the meal, An Ye did not show up again, and Chen Nuo was happy to be left alone. Otherwise, he would have wanted to argue with him as soon as he saw him, which would have been a waste of time.
She had just learned about the An family birthday party from Lu Zhiyi at noon, and when she went to the hospital in the afternoon, she happened to see Fang Siyue handing the invitation to Fu Chuji.
He was able to sit up now. After taking the invitation, he glanced at it. When he looked up, he saw Shen Nuo standing outside the door. His brows relaxed, as if ice and snow had melted.
"Why didn't you make any noise when you came?" He waved at her, motioning her to sit over.
Fang Siyue tactfully packed up his things and said, "Boss Fu, I'll be leaving now."
Chen Nuo took the invitation from his hand and took a look at it. There was more than just An Shuyue as the protagonist on the list. An Ning's name was also added, although it was ranked at the end.
"The An family is preparing to tell the outside world that they gave birth to twins," Shen Nuo sarcastically said.
In fact, in the original novel, the An family didn't even add An Ning's name when they held a birthday party for An Shuyue. They also plotted against Shen Huai at the birthday party, wanting him to marry An Shuyue. The final result was that the relationship between An Ning and Shen Huai was exposed. Now that it has become like this, no one knows what will happen. Shen Nuo is actually a little looking forward to it.
How could someone with An Jia's brain possibly outsmart Shen Huai? She wasn't worried about Shen Huai at all.
Fu Chuji took the invitation from her hand and casually placed it on the cabinet next to her, saying in a neutral tone:
"An Jingtian is old and can't see the situation clearly. He probably still thinks his son can support the An family's business."
It is said that those who are involved in the matter are often confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly. Those who used to be on good terms with the An family have gradually begun to distance themselves from them, so An Jingtian is a little anxious to get close to the Shen family.
"Then he is really daydreaming. The heroine is out, and he still relies on An Shuyue." Shen Nuo rolled his eyes.
Fu Chuji glanced at her without delving into what she meant by the heroine.
She is not such a careless person. Since she is willing to say these things in front of him, it means that she has probably begun to trust him slowly.
"It's a good idea for him. We have to give it a try," he explained concisely.
Shen Nuo raised the corners of his lips and looked at him with a smile: "Really? The Fu family is big and powerful, and there must be many people who want to get close to you as a cash cow."
As she spoke, her hand touched his Adam's apple and pretended to straighten his collar, but she suspected that if his answer did not satisfy her, she would strangle him immediately.
His expression remained unchanged: "No."
Shen Nuo frowned, obviously not believing him: "Really?"
He lowered his eyes, his voice sounding self-deprecating: "You also know my identity, how could they possibly look down on me?"
Shen Nuo: “…”
Is this just shooting oneself in the foot?
She cleared her throat and said, "Don't talk nonsense. They are blind, unlike me who have a pair of bright eyes that can discern pearls."
"Really?" He looked up at her.
"Really, more real than pearls." Shen Nuo nodded vigorously.
"So what do you think is good about me?"
She thought about it seriously and said, "He's handsome, can cook, and can make money..."
She paused, her voice much softer: "Of course, the most important thing is that I like you. Isn't it said that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder?"
"Can you resist kissing Xi Shi in front of you?"
“…”
Shen Nuo looked up and met his slightly teasing gaze. She gritted her teeth and said, "Fu Chuji, you're kidding me!"
If he wasn't a patient, she would have hit him with her iron fist.
She pretended to be magnanimous and said, "Forget it. I am a magnanimous person and will not bother with you."
Fu Chuji's eyes fell on her head: "There is a leaf on your head."
"Where is it?"
Shen Nuo fumbled with his hair for a long time but couldn't find it.
He said calmly, "I'll help you."
Shen Nuo said "oh" and leaned forward. As soon as she put her head forward, her chin was clamped and a hot kiss fell on her.
“…”
She glared at him, trying to make him feel guilty with her condemning look, but what greeted her was an even more ferocious kiss. The tip of his teeth gently rubbed against her lips, and he tasted every inch of her mouth with great aggressiveness.
His fingertips slid slowly from her chin to her neck, and his low, magnetic voice rang in her ears:
"Praise it more."
He stroked her smooth skin with his fingertips, feeling the trembling she felt because of him.
His Adam's apple rolled and his voice was frighteningly hoarse: "Baby."
