Chapter 364 Does he have the skills and intelligence to compete with Song Yanzhi for a woman?
Shen Yan seemed not to have heard what Nan Xia said, rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen, "Don't worry, I'll cook for you, you won't eat here."
"No need, Mr. Shen, you should go back." Nan Xia gave him another order to leave.
Xiao Yan suddenly walked to her side, grabbed her hand, tilted her head back and said:
"Auntie, just let him cook here. He's a very good cook. Besides, he hasn't given us the account books yet. If you insist on kicking him out, what if he gets upset and refuses to give us the account books?"
Nan Xia looked down at Xiao Yan. This little guy was actually speaking up for him?
“Mommy, please let Uncle Chen stay here. I want to try his cooking too,” Zhouzhou said suddenly, blinking her big eyes.
"Mmm!" Qiaoqiao didn't say anything, but nodded to her mother.
Nanxia frowned when she saw that they were all speaking up for that man. How did that man manage to bribe the three of them?
"Alright, if Mr. Shen really wants to cook, then go ahead and cook. You can go back after you're done." That's what he just said.
Shen Yan wanted to slap himself. Why did he say that just now?
"By the way, have you prepared enough ingredients? Aunt Song and the others will be coming over later," he asked.
"Will Madam Song and the others be coming too? They've helped take care of the child for so many days, they should be treated to a meal," Nan Xia thought to herself, before speaking to the man.
"That should be enough. That bag is full of ingredients for hot pot tonight. You just need to wash the side dishes and make a clear broth and a spicy broth base."
"Okay, leave it to me." Shen Yan had made hot pot for Weiwei and her son at home a few days ago, so she had experience.
Lu Qinghe looked at the strange man, somewhat puzzled. What did they mean by giving him the account book? Was it important to Nanxia?
Is it related to her enemy?
If I get that thing, she'll definitely listen to me obediently, right?
As he was thinking, the living room doorbell rang again. Nan Xia went to open it, and Mrs. Song, who was standing outside the door, asked her kindly, "Xia Xia, are you feeling better?"
"I'm much better now. Mr. and Mrs. Song, please come in and have a seat." She said, stepping aside to let them into the house.
When the Song couple entered the house, they were stunned to see the man surnamed Lu sitting on the sofa. What was he doing here? Zhouzhou had told them that the man had slept with his assistant.
How dare he stay here any longer?
The couple sat down on the sofa, and Nanxia poured them a cup of coffee. Mrs. Song looked at the man and deliberately asked, "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be here too. Does your assistant still live here?"
Seeing that her expression wasn't good when she mentioned her assistant, Lu Qinghe had no choice but to answer, "...She's gone."
"Your assistant is quite bold, daring to tamper with your and Xiaxia's drinks. But she got what she deserved, at least she slept with you," Mrs. Song said with a sigh, taking a sip of her coffee.
Lu Qinghe's expression darkened further. Was she doing this on purpose? Why bring this up now?
Nanxia stood by the sofa, feeling embarrassed for the man, since there were so many people there. But what Madam Song said was true, without any embellishment.
There's really no way to say anything bad about her.
Shen Yan, who was washing vegetables in the open kitchen, overheard their conversation and interjected, "Is that Mr. Lu Xia Xia's friend? Or is he a friend of Attorney Song?"
"He's Xiaxia's friend. I heard he pursued Xiaxia for six years. I also heard that his assistant seduced him and became his mistress for four years. I don't know if it's true or not," Madam Song said.
Shen Yan looked at the strange man, raising his eyebrows in surprise. He had pursued Nan Xia for six years, but had been having an affair with his assistant for four years?
Whether it's true or not, does he have the skills and intelligence to compete with Song Yanzhi for a woman? He doesn't seem very bright.
It seems he has no chance.
“That’s not true. My assistant deliberately lied to try and break me up with Xiaxia. What does Mrs. Song mean by saying these things?” Lu Qinghe asked unhappily.
"Mr. Lu, please don't be angry. I was just saying it casually," Mrs. Song said with a smile.
Was it just a casual remark? It was clearly said on purpose for Nan Xia to hear, wasn't it? Lu Qinghe couldn't get angry with her, otherwise he would seem petty and bad-tempered.
Ring ring—his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and glanced at it. It was his assistant. Why was she calling him at this hour?
There were so many people around, it wasn't convenient to answer her call, so I hung up immediately.
But as soon as I hung up, the woman called again! What did she want?
Lu Qinghe stood up and said, "I'm going to answer a work call..." He then took his constantly ringing phone back to his bedroom, closed the door, and answered the call, asking coldly:
"Hey, what's up?"
"Mr. Lu, I've made the arrangements." Duan Xue said to him while sitting on the hotel bed.
She was quick to act. Lu Qinghe felt a surge of anger when he thought of the embarrassment the Song family had caused him. He wanted to teach Song Yanzhi a lesson!
"Let those guys find a chance to teach Song Yanzhi a lesson!" he said in a low voice. That man had beaten him up, and he had to get revenge.
"This... I don't know if they'll be willing..." Duan Xue stammered. She wasn't looking for ordinary thugs, but well-trained bodyguards.
That afternoon, she discovered that the Nan family's enemy was actually a well-known and powerful family in the city. She went to see Chairman Shen and reached a cooperation agreement with him.
He agreed to kidnap Nanxia, only asking her to help lure her out.
Duan Xue thought that she was quite familiar with that woman, so it wouldn't be difficult to get her to come out.
“Why not just give them the money?” he said in a deep voice.
“I’m looking for Nanxia’s enemies… I don’t know if they’re willing to offend Song Yanzhi. The Song family has quite a bit of influence in S City,” she said.
"How did you find out about Nanxia's enemy?" Lu Qinghe asked curiously.
"It was someone from their law firm who said that they would tell you anything if you paid them some money."
"Who is the other party?" he asked.
"The other party's surname is Shen, the chairman of Ruifeng Group. I heard that the old man killed Nanxia's father when he was young and also seized their family's group. Six years ago, that man surnamed Shen almost killed Nanxia. Didn't you save her later?"
"That woman is so heartless! You were her savior, and she promised to marry you, but now she's gone back on her word and is hooking up with her ex-boyfriend. I think she's just playing you." Duan Xue deliberately sowed discord.
As Lu Qinghe listened to her words, he clenched his fists tightly, a surge of hatred rising within him for Nan Xia.
"Go find that guy surnamed Shen again, and use him to teach Song Yanzhi a lesson first. We'll talk about Nanxia later," he said in a deep voice.
"Okay, I'll ask," Duan Xue said and hung up the phone.
In the living room, Madam Song pulled Nanxia to sit beside her and said, "I've always liked you. If you were my daughter-in-law, I would definitely spoil you like my own daughter."
