Chapter 494: Uninvited
Lin Wanrou has been in a dazed state, or rather, she has been completely unable to think since she entered the private room.
In fact, when she arrived at the Imperial Hotel, she had already guessed that Zhong Nianyao's boyfriend must be extraordinary. However, she never expected that Zhong Nianyao's boyfriend would be the third master of the Lu family.
At this moment, she couldn't help but recall a news story she had seen a long time ago, about the Third Master of the Lu Family and Zhong Nianyao. However, the news was quickly suppressed and then disappeared without a trace, with no further news about it. So she gradually forgot about it.
However, who would have thought that these two people have been together for so long and are now even discussing marriage. Such news really made her feel dizzy.
However, in such an occasion, it was absolutely inappropriate for her to ask anything. She could only sit quietly beside Zhong Jinghao and eat.
As for the rest, I'll find time to ask my boyfriend later.
When the atmosphere in the private room was just right, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Mr. Lu couldn't help but frown, but still asked his eldest son to open the door.
Now that all the dishes were served, he didn't know who would come over at this time. Because long before, he had already explained that he was entertaining an important guest today and asked them not to disturb him.
So, he really didn't know who was so tactless as to knock on the door at this time.
Soon, an unexpected figure walked in from outside. Her arrival also made the originally lively atmosphere of the entire private room suddenly cool down.
The person who came was none other than Zhong Mengxuan.
Before, no matter how much she begged, Zhong Nianyao was unwilling to help. Later, her mother gave her an idea, telling her not to tell the old man and others, but to find out clearly, and then come directly on the day of the meeting.
Although it was a bit abrupt to come uninvited, she was Zhong Nianyao's cousin, and today was such a good day. Even if her grandparents were unhappy, they would definitely not say anything.
At that time, as long as she could have a meal with the Lu family and let them know that she and Zhong Nian Yao had a good relationship, that would be enough.
Although she didn't want to rely on Zhong Nianyao's power, if she still wanted to stay with Lu Chenran, she had to have her own bargaining chips.
When they suddenly saw Zhong Mengxuan's arrival, almost everyone in the private room changed their expressions.
The Lu family naturally knew Zhong Mengxuan. Even if they hadn't seen her in person, they had seen photos of her. Of course, they were also well aware of the relationship between Zhong Mengxuan and Lu Chenran. However, they hadn't expected Zhong Mengxuan to appear on such an occasion today.
If this was arranged by the Zhong family, then it would really be a slap in their faces.
If you were to ask who in the Lu family has the worst complexion, it would undoubtedly be Lu Chenran.
The relationship between him and Zhong Mengxuan was almost in a semi-public state. Now his lover appeared so carelessly next to his closest person, and even had dinner at the same table with him, what kind of thing was this!
As if unaware of the sudden silence in the private room, Zhong Mengxuan found a seat and sat down immediately after entering. Then she looked at everyone with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, I'm late. I hope I didn't disturb your fun."
It looked as if she had been planning to attend the event, but was delayed so she came here at this time.
"You're not late."
Seeing Zhong Mengxuan being so shameless, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but sneer, but what she said was enough to choke someone to death, "We didn't plan on having you come with us, but now you've come straight here on your own. It seems like you're really eager to attend this dinner!"
After hearing this, Zhong Mengxuan couldn't help but feel embarrassed, but she pretended to be calm and said, "I'm just worried about you, so I wanted to come and learn from you."
"Haha, do you believe such words?" Zhong Nianyao sneered and said, "However, you are quite shameless. I have clearly rejected you, yet you still have the nerve to come here, and you come uninvited."
Zhong Mengxuan's expression suddenly became even uglier. "Nianyao, we are all sisters, why do you have to talk like this?"
She had never expected that Zhong Nianyao would expose her directly in front of so many people. This was simply a loss of face for her.
Moreover, after hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, her original plan had to be completely shattered. After all, the people in the Lu family were not blind and could see that the relationship between her and Zhong Nianyao was not good.
Now she felt a little regretful and wondered whether she should have come.
Mr. Zhong's sharp eyes fell on Zhong Mengxuan, "Zhong Mengxuan, when we get back, I hope you can give me an explanation."
Facing the look from Old Master Zhong, Zhong Mengxuan couldn't help but shudder, lowered her head, and a trace of fear flashed through her heart.
She found her arrival so unwelcome and her situation so embarrassing.
She raised her head and looked at Lu Chenran involuntarily.
She hadn't seen Lu Chenran for many days. If she hadn't come here today, she might not have had the chance to see him in the near future.
Thinking of this, when she looked at Lu Chenran again, she couldn't help but feel a little more resentful.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the private room became more and more awkward.
As one of the parties involved, Lu Chenran's mood at this moment is even more difficult to describe. He really wants time to go back to yesterday, and without thinking twice, just find a way not to follow him.
Now, having dinner at the same table with your family and your lover, it seems weird no matter how you look at it!
Zhong Mengxuan is really too ignorant. Even if they meet in an occasion like today, will it change anything?
Thinking of this, he avoided Zhong Mengxuan's gaze and didn't even want to admit that he knew such a person. However, for the sake of the Zhong family's face, he still couldn't treat Zhong Mengxuan badly in the future. After all, they would soon be relatives.
Zhong Mengxuan's sudden arrival changed the atmosphere in the private room quite a bit. Fortunately, Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhong had already discussed everything.
So, even though Zhong Mengxuan was sitting there, they didn't ask any questions.
