Chapter 623: Blood Clan Loyal Butler vs. Godly Lady 52
Lu Zewen’s face immediately turned dark.
Tens of billions of dollars spent can still make a difference, but when it comes to Lance, it falls on deaf ears and he won't even pour a glass of water.
He didn't force Lance to pour the water, but just sat alone on the single sofa. His lips were dry, but he didn't want to get up.
Quan Jiu was the best at fanning the flames, leaning on Lu Zhiyao with a soft, boneless body, imitating him in a very precise way:
"Zhiyao, I want to drink that."
She pointed to the lemonade on the table.
The man who was called froze, and her charming voice of "Zhi Yao" echoed in his ears. She always called him "Lu Guanjia" on weekdays, and had never called him that before.
He turned his head to look at the woman nestled on his shoulder, her eyes dark and deep. After a long moment, the man said hoarsely, "Hmm."
He worked tirelessly to pour water for Quan Jiu, not even giving him a chance to reach out, and directly handed the cup to her lips.
Quan Jiu took a sip following his movements, then turned around and glanced at Lu Zewen lightly:
"Mr. Lu, you won't drink water if no one pours it for you?"
She had an exaggerated expression on her face that said, "No way, no way, there is no one who can't even pour water by himself."
Lu Zewen: "..."
He rarely has mood swings on weekdays, but he has to admit that he was really angry today.
He looked at Lu Yao, who had no say and no status, and tried to awaken his masculinity as a man.
But Lu Zhiyao just glanced at him indifferently and continued to concentrate on feeding Quan Jiu water. Afraid that she would choke, the man lifted the water glass with great care, moving it slightly.
Lu Zewen was furious when he saw his brother acting like a loyal dog. He coldly said:
"Promising."
Quan Jiu "tsk" twice, raised his chin, and kissed Lu Zhiyao on the face with his red lips. The kiss was so loud and clear that Wang Hemiao and Ji Chushu couldn't help but hug their arms and rub the goose bumps on the back of their hands.
The only two people who were not hurt were Lance and Lu Zhiyao.
The former knows nothing about love.
The latter narrowed her eyes slightly, and her eyes formed a happy arc.
Lu Zhiyao enjoyed Quan Jiu's active affection and didn't even mind Lu Zewen trying to commit suicide a few more times.
Lu Zewen stood up sullenly: "You guys play by yourselves."
Staying here is also an eyesore.
Chen Peisi, who was far away, had been paying attention to the situation here. When she saw Lu Zewen taking the initiative to follow Quan Jiu, she was still worried for a while. Now that she saw him leave, she finally let go of her worries.
As soon as Quan Jiu sent the location to Andrew, a shadow covered the screen of her mobile phone. She looked up and saw Chen Peisi standing in front of her with an elegant daughter.
Chen Peisi looked her dress up and down, trying to find a trace of guilt on her face.
Quan Jiu put away his phone: "What's up?"
Chen Peisi had finally caught her weakness, so naturally he couldn't let it go.
Their socialite circle is most taboo about fakes. Today is the first time that Quan Jiu has appeared in the upper-class circle of City C. If she can expose her, then in the future, daughters of status and position will naturally not play with someone wearing fakes.
"Where did you get this dress?" Chen Peisi asked the key question.
Quan Jiu: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Seeing that she avoided the topic, Chen Peisi thought she was feeling guilty, and became more certain of his guess.
"I know the designer of this dress. The dress you are wearing is called Rose Manor. It is a not-for-sale work by Master Charles."
Quan Jiu glanced at Lu Zhiyao.
Good job.
She originally thought he just bought a dress casually, but she didn't expect that this dress had such a history.
Chen Peisi stood at the highest moral point and accused:
"You are also from aristocratic family. Don't you feel ashamed to wear a fake when you know it's fake?"
Quan Jiu raised his eyelids and glanced up at her: "Who told you that this dress is fake?"
Xie Wan frowned slightly when he heard this.
As she got closer and looked at the dress again, she became even more certain that it was exactly the same as the one she remembered from Rose Manor.
Master Charles was a friend of her father. With this relationship, she didn't buy the "Rose Manor". In order to stop her from thinking about it, Charles said in person:
It is the work I am most satisfied with so far. In my heart, no one is worthy of this dress, so Rose Manor will never be for sale.
It was precisely because of his decisive words that Xie Wan never set his sights on Rose Manor again after returning to China.
Quanjiu's words sounded like a sophistry of denial to her.
When Lu Zhiyao heard her instinctive rebuttal, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if she was protecting him instead of the dress.
Chen Peisi didn't expect Quan Jiu to deny it, so she raised her voice, attracting the surrounding celebrities and rich girls to come over:
"Wanwan has already said that Master Charles has personally certified that this dress is never for sale. Your dress is simply a knockoff."
When Xie Wan heard her own name, her brows furrowed. She naturally knew that Chen Peisi was using her as a pawn and using her name to resolve his own grudges.
She never liked to get involved in intrigues, but this dress had been her obsession, and she wanted to find out the truth, so this time, she chose to remain silent.
Xie Wan's silence became silent support in the eyes of others. The Xie family has always been proud of their integrity and never got involved in corruption. What she admitted was probably the truth.
For a moment, everyone's gaze towards Quan Jiu became subtle.
They can understand the desire to show off when appearing in public for the first time, but it is really disheartening to try to show off.
Quan Jiu remained calm in the face of the so-called witness evidence:
"You said you knew Charles?"
Chen Peisi felt guilty for a moment, but when she saw Xie Wan behind her, her confidence returned.
"That's right."
Quan Jiu nodded: "That's easy. Since you know Charles, it shouldn't be difficult to call him and ask about the whereabouts of the dress, right?"
Chen Peisi looked at Xie Wan awkwardly, hoping that she would take the initiative to speak for him.
Xie Wan: "Today is Monday. Charles is usually in the dressmaking room, so we can only contact him in the evening."
Her eyes fell on the Rose Manor. She had to admit that this pirated copy was really similar. If she hadn't known in advance that the Rose Manor was not for sale, she would probably have thought it was the original.
"The clothes are real."
Lu Zhiyao suddenly spoke.
Chen Peisi glanced at Lu Zhiyao and recognized him as Xier's butler. Last time in the bar, Xier even turned against him in order to protect him.
Adding new hatred to the old one, her tone became even more hostile, with condescending insults:
"You're just a small housekeeper, do you have the right to speak here?"
His hand was still on Quan Jiu's waist. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell what their relationship was. Did this little butler, who used his sex appeal to seduce others, really think he was such a big shot?!
Lu Zhiyao's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly:
"Charles gave me the clothes."
