Chapter 82: Uneasy
Speak of the devil and he will appear.
Shen Boyan narrowed his eyes slightly. This was Huo Beiting’s car.
The Bentley slowly stopped in front of the main gate of the house.
A black figure walked out.
Huo Beiting was dressed in black today, a black shirt on the upper body and black trousers on the lower body.
His whole temperament was extremely cold, and there was no expression on his angular face. Even under the scorching sun, he still revealed a bit of gloom.
"Mr. Huo."
Chen Boyan stood in the sun. Although he was cold, it was a clear coldness. Standing with Gu Nanyue, the sun shone on him and there was warmth.
Huo Beiting didn't show any warmth at all. He nodded at him coldly, then followed the servant who led the way and walked straight into the main house.
Gu Nanyue watched his back.
People like Huo Beiting seem to have an incurable wound deep in his heart and are always shrouded in darkness.
Her wrist suddenly tightened. Gu Nanyue looked down and saw a big hand holding her tightly.
I glanced sideways at the handsome figure beside me, but saw that he was looking straight ahead and his expression seemed to have no change.
Gu Nanyue smiled secretly, retracted her gaze, and continued to wait for Lu Wan.
Not long after, a taxi drove in.
After Lu Wan got out of the car and thanked the driver, she walked towards Gu Nanyue holding two paintings.
“Nan Yan, Mr. Shen.”
Lu Wan greeted the two of them gently.
She was wearing a white top and a green skirt today, with her hair half-covered. She was holding two paintings in her hands, standing in the sun, looking like a gentle, ladylike beauty with artistic temperament.
"Do you need me to put the painting away for you first?"
Gu Nanyue asked first.
She had to find a suitable opportunity to give it to Huo Beiting.
If we bring the painting in now, Ji Mingyu will definitely be curious and may even want to go in.
"good."
Lu Wan obediently handed the painting to Gu Nanyue, who then turned around and handed it to Xiaoyue.
"Bo Yan's friends are here. I'll take you in to meet them."
Gu Nanyan's hand had long been freed from Shen Boyan's palm. At this time, she took Lu Wan's hand, and the two bright girls walked into the main house together.
Shen Boyan followed behind the two of them, his eyes falling on the two girls' holding hands, but under the sun, his expression was not very sunny.
"Hey, who is this beautiful lady?"
As soon as Gu Nanyue walked in holding Lu Wan's hand, Ji Mingyu, who was drinking tea and chatting, suddenly stopped the topic, looked straight at Lu Wan, and slowly put down the teacup.
Chu Yan took a look and felt that he looked familiar.
Tang Ci took a quick glance. Perhaps because he had seen too many beauties in the entertainment industry, he was aesthetically fatigued, so he was not surprised.
Huo Beiting drank his tea coldly without looking back.
When Lu Wan saw so many familiar faces, she subconsciously paused.
The nervous and uneasy emotions were transmitted to the palms of his hands, and a thin layer of sweat had already appeared on the palms that were held by Gu Nanyue.
"Don't be afraid."
Gu Nanyue calmly said something to comfort him.
Lu Wan probably suddenly remembered that this was Shen Boyan's place, and with Gu Nanyue protecting her, she was no longer so scared and strode forward.
"Beauty, have we met before somewhere? You look familiar to me." Ji Mingyu looked at Lu Wan's face carefully. The more he looked, the more familiar she looked. However, he just couldn't remember where he had seen her before.
"As long as she's a beauty, you will find her familiar." Chu Yan said softly while drinking tea.
"Mr. Chu really understands you." Tang Ci leaned on the sofa, stroking her head lazily with her hand, her smile a little coquettish.
Ji Mingyu was indeed very interested in gentle and ladylike beauties like Lu Wan, and quickly asked Shen Boyan who was behind the two girls, "Boss Shen, why don't you introduce them quickly?"
At this time, Lu Wan pulled her hand out of Gu Nanyan's palm, took two steps forward, and mustered up the courage to speak, "Hello everyone, I am Lu Wan."
"puff--"
Chu Yan was the first to spit out a mouthful of tea, a rare moment of loss of composure.
Huo Beiting stopped drinking tea when he heard the voice.
"Huh? Your name is also Lu Wan? The fourth young lady of the Lu family is also called Lu Wan. We met her a while ago. Her style is so unique." Ji Mingyu wanted to say a few more words, but thinking that the fourth young lady Lu was Huo Beiting's fiancée after all, he didn't dare to say more.
He didn't recognize the person in front of him at all. It was the Lu Wan he had met before.
Chu Yan's eyesight was better. After staring at Lu Wan carefully, he nudged Ji Mingyu with his elbow and asked, "Is there something wrong with your eyes?"
"There's nothing wrong with my eyesight. Haven't you seen Fourth Miss Lu? Just ask yourself, is she pretty? Is she even a little bit prettyer than the Miss Lu in front of you?" Ji Mingyu was very brave in order to please the beauty, and he was not afraid of offending Huo Beiting.
"hehe."
Tang Ci obviously recognized Lu Wan as well and smiled without saying anything.
Interesting, really interesting.
"I have met you all last time. I am Miss Lu Si, Lu Wan." Lu Wan took a deep breath and spoke again.
Ji Mingyu's expression froze instantly.
The first time everyone looked at him, an expression as if he had eaten a dead fly appeared on his face.
Is she kidding?
Although the lighting was a little dim that day, he could still see clearly the eye-catching outfit of Miss Lu Si.
How could he be the same person as the gentle and beautiful lady in front of me?
This is not a joke.
"I played a joke on you last time. Sorry."
After Lu Wan finished explaining, she found an empty sofa nearby and sat down.
Ji Mingyu didn't react for a long time.
"I didn't expect that the biggest surprise today was given by Miss Lu." Huo Beiting suddenly put down the teacup in his hand and sneered.
Chu Yan looked at him with envy.
Mr. Huo looked on quietly, but he had a keen eye for choosing a fiancée. No one had ever seen Fourth Miss Lu, and no one expected her to be such a beautiful and elegant lady.
"Are you really the same person as Lu Wan whom we met last time? Then were you cosplaying last time?" Ji Mingyu still couldn't believe this fact.
Lu Wan said nothing, just lowered her head and drank tea in silence.
This reserved look is completely different from the girl who drank heavily last time.
Gu Nanyan sat down next to Lu Wan, while Shen Boyan sat on a single sofa, "The wine is ready, and the servants are preparing food. Let's not get drunk today."
"I have been coveting Mr. Shen's wine for a long time. I must drink it to my heart's content today." Tang Ci lifted her hair coquettishly and laughed.
Ji Mingyu still stared at Lu Wan blankly.
No matter how he looked at Lu Wan, he couldn't associate her with the Lu Wan he met last time.
His three views were overturned and his beliefs collapsed.
The banquet was held in the yard.
The weather was sunny today. The long white dining table was decorated with many blue and white flowers. The wine had already filled half of the table, and the servants were serving the dishes one after another.
After drinking tea at the house, everyone came out for a stroll.
After all, the luxurious mansion of Yujing Manor is not something they can visit whenever they want.
Gu Nanyue went away to do something busy, so Lu Wan avoided everyone and found a small garden to appreciate the flowers.
Ever since she met Huo Beiting today, she has been feeling a little uneasy.
The small garden was full of flowers. Lu Wan squatted in front of a cluster of flowers, watching the butterflies flying around them, and her mood gradually relaxed.
Behind, there was the sound of footsteps.
