Luo Tianxue saw Jiang Yanshen pout, and even Lu Dongcheng did not look good. âWhy are you here?â
Lu Dongcheng glanced at the little girl. âWeâre talking.â
âAre you talking or looking for fun?â Luo Tianxue snorted softly, becoming even more arrogant in front of Lu Dongcheng.
Lu Dongcheng ignored her.
Jiang Yanshen looked at Lin Qingqian with his black eyes. He pulled his hand out of his pocket and reached for her.
Lin Qingqian walked over and held his hand naturally. âYou guys talk. We wonât disturb you anymore.â
Jiang Yanshenâs thin lips curled up slightly. âItâs fine. Weâll talk after eating.â How can talking be more important than eating with Qianqian?
Su Ying and Luo Tianxue looked at each other and felt like they had been forcefully stuffed with dog food.
The five of them asked for a large private room. Jiang Yanshen and Lin Qingqian sat together, Luo Tianxue and Lu Dongcheng sat together, and Su Ying found a seat alone to reduce her presence as much as possible.
All of them were big shots, so she, a small shrimp, would just eat silently. Lin Qingqian saw Lu Yuan at the side and said gently, âLu Yuan, sit down and eat with us.â
Lu Yuan was flattered. He glanced at Lu Dongcheng and shook his head. âThank you, Miss Lin. Thereâs no need..
âJust take it that youâre helping me take care of Su Ying,â Lin Qingqian said.
Su Ying was introverted and shy. It was inevitable that she would be unable to relax when eating with them. It would be better with Lu Yuan taking care of her.
Lu Yuan didnât say anything and looked at Jiang Yanshen. Seeing the boss nod, he thanked her again and sat down beside Su Ying.
Su Ying had seen him a few times and knew that he had a good temper. She smiled at him.
Lu Yuan also smiled politely.
Lu Dongcheng, who was holding a teacup, snorted coldly and said in a cold voice, âEven Tom, Dick, and Harry can come to the table. Director Jiang, arenât you afraid of losing your value?â
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere immediately became awkward.
Those with discerning eyes knew that these words were targeted at Lu Yuan. They couldnât help but look at the two of them curiously.
Lu Yuan clenched his fists under the table and didnât say anything.
Lin Qingqian poured a glass of water and turned it to Lu Yuan. Her red lips curled up slightly. âIf President Lu feels that sitting here is degrading your status, you can always leave.â
Lu Yuan was stunned. He followed the direction of the teacup and looked at Lin Qingqian, his heart filled with gratitude.
Madam is protecting him!!!
âMiss Lin, I did show some kindness to you at least, I donât expect any repayment from you, but thereâs no need to repay me with animosity, right?â said Lu Dongcheng, his gaze lingering playfully on Lin Qingqian.
Lin Qingqian blinked and said in a calm voice, âPresident Lu, didnât I repay your kindness by forgiving Miss Luo?â
If not for his sake, would she have let Luo Tianxue go just like that after offending her twice?
âSharp-tongued.â Lu Dongcheng looked at the silent Jiang Yanshen with his dark eyes. âArenât you going to care?â
Jiang Yanshen helped Lin Qingqian prepare the tea and his thin lips twitched. âIâm afraid of my wife.â
Lu Dongcheng:
Ever since he got Lin Qingqian back, Jiang Yanshen seemed to be getting more and more shameless. He could even say such things without batting an eyelid.
Just as he was about to speak, Luo Tianxue said impatiently, âAre you done? Are you going to let us eat?â
Lu Dongcheng glanced at the frustration on her beautiful face and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. His hawk-like eyes faintly glanced at Lu Yuan opposite him.
Lu Yuan lowered his head and drank his tea, pretending not to see it.
At this time, the Manager brought the attendant over to serve the dishes. This topic could finally be stopped.
Perhaps because of what had happened previously, the meal was very quiet. No one tried to start a conversation.
Jiang Yanshen completely ignored Lu Dongchengâs murderous expression and his attention was on Lin Qingqian.
Lin Qingqianâs bowl was about to pile up into a small mountain from the food that Jiang Yanshen kept adding to her rice. She couldnât help but say, âItâs enough. I canât finish it.â
Jiang Yanshen looked down at her thin face and frowned. âEat more. Youâre too thin.â
Lin Qingqian could only bite the bullet and eat more.
Luo Tianxue had to maintain her figure and eat little. She ate only the vegetables.
Lu Dongcheng took some meat for her and Luo Tianxue picked them all out.
She said impatiently, âCan you stop being annoying? I canât eat meat. I have many photoshoots to go to these few days. I canât gain weight.â
âYouâre already so thin. And you still want to diet?â Lu Dongchengâs expression darkened slightly as he said in a cold voice, âDonât eat anything later. Just find someone to give you nutrient fluid.â
Seeing that he was showing signs of losing his temper, Luo Tianxueâs anger immediately dissipated by more than half. She whispered, âI canât eat for these few days. Iâll eat more later. Besides, the food they make here isnât as delicious as yours.â
When her attitude softened, Lu Dongchengâs temper disappeared. âAfter youâre done with your work, follow me back to Jiang City to rest for a few days.â
Luo Tianxue nodded and agreed first. Whether she returned or not would have to wait until later!
Lu Yuan ate his food in silence. Occasionally, he would secretly glance at the two of them from the corner of his eye and quickly lower his eyes, thinking about something.
After dinner, Luo Tianxue had to go back to work.
Lu Yuan went to pay the bill. When he saw Luo Tianxue in front, he couldnât help but quicken his pace and walk up to her. He lowered his voice and said dryly, âThank you.â
Luo Tianxue glanced at him and pursed her red lips. âItâs fine. Ignore him next time. Heâs just like that.â
Lu Yuan didnât reply and went to the cashier to settle the bill.
Lu Dongcheng and Jiang Yanshen were originally going to discuss something, but after they encountered Lin Qingqian, they naturally moved the matter to a later date.
On the way back, Lin Qingqian really couldnât help but ask curiously, âWhat grudges does Lu Dongcheng have with Lu Yuan?â
Every time Lu Dongcheng saw Lu Yuan, it was as if he had seen the enemy who had killed his father.
Jiang Yanshen tightened his grip on her hand and said calmly, âHis surname is Lu.â
He had always been emotionless when it came to the matters of other people.
Lin Qingqian was stunned for a moment before she reacted and was a little surprised. âLu Yuan and Lu Dongcheng are⦠brothers?â
Jiang Yanshen didnât deny it and continued, âLu Dongchengâs father is famous for being a playboy in Jiang City.â
It was obvious how flirtatious he was to have three children with different women.
âBut Lu Dongcheng treats Luo Tianxue, his half-sister, very well. Why is he so hostile to Lu Yuan?â Lin Qingqian was puzzled.
âLu Dongcheng has a sister complex.â Jiang Yanshen turned his head and saw that she was interested. He patiently explained the Lu familyâs matters for once. âLu Dongchengâs mother was the main wife but she died early. His father had been a playboy for many years, but in the end, he was subdued by Lu Yuanâs mother. He even wanted to bring the mother and son pair back to the Lu family.â
The Lu Family was a big family. Lu Dongcheng already had his hands full dealing with his cousins at home. Now that he had another half-brother who was favored by the Old Master, how could he not hate Lu Yuanâs existence?
âAfter that, Lu Yuan didnât enter the Lu Family?â If he had entered the Lu Family, he wouldnât be Jiang Yanshenâs special assistant now.
âThe mother and son pair were unlucky. The day before they entered the Lu
Family, Old Master Lu passed away.â Of course, Lu Yuan couldnât enter the Lu
Family. Lu Dongcheng didnât even allow them to pay respects to Old Master Lu.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan didnât really want to return to the Lu Family. As soon as
Old Master Lu died, he immediately ran to Lan City and applied to enter the Tianyue Group and was eventually promoted to the position of special assistant.
Lin Qingqian lowered her eyes and sighed softly. âAs expected, thereâs a lot of melodrama in the wealthy families. When I look at it this way, the Jiang family isnât too complicated.â
Jiang Yunshen had a big brother complex and admired Jiang Yanshen very much. Although the people from the collateral branch all had ulterior motives, they didnât have the guts to do anything. So, they were nothing.
Jiang Yunshen had a big brother complex and admired Jiang Yanshen very much. Although the people from the collateral branch all had ulterior motives, they didnât have the guts to do anything. So, they were nothing.
Other than Jiang Chongjing eyeing his position covetously, there was no other potential danger.
Jiang Yanshen understood the deeper meaning in her words. He held her hand tightly and said in a low voice, âNo matter how chaotic the Jiang family is, with me protecting you, what are you afraid of?â
A smile appeared on Lin Qingqianâs plain face. âIâm not afraid, so you donât have to be afraid too. If youâre chased out of the Jiang family one day, Iâll support you.â
âFrom the looks of it, youâre looking forward to me being chased out of the Jiang family.â Jiang Yanshen chuckled.
Lin Qingqian nodded and said seriously, âThis way, I can experience the joy of raising a little wolfdog.â
Jiang Yanshenâs brows moved slightly as he bit her lips.
Lin Qingqian was thin-skinned and was afraid that the chauffeur would see her. She reached out to push him away and glared at him coquettishly.
She only said that he was a little wolfdog, but he bit her? As expected, heâs just a little wolfdog!
Lin Qingqianâs independent brand was almost ready for launch. The flagship shop online and the physical shops opened on the same day.
The advertisement for the promotional photos taken by Luo Tianxue had already been released in advance. The official Weibo account on the Internet had also been promoted and warmed up in advance.
Many fans were looking forward to seeing the photos and promotional photos. Although the price was a little expensive, it was still affordable if they saved for it.
On the day of the opening, other than Luo Tianxue the ambassador, Lu Qinshang and Li Wenwen came to support her. Ren Guangxi was preparing for his album and couldnât spare time, but he specially asked his manager to send a flower basket to congratulate her.
Vin, Xu Wanlan, and the others also arrived to congratulate her.
There were many reporters and media people at the event location. Other than interviewing Lin Qingqian, they also wanted to interview Luo Tianxue, Lu Qinshang, and the others.
However, no matter how the reporters asked, everyone would bring the topic back to todayâs event.
Originally, many people were here for their idols. In the end, when they entered the shop and saw the beautiful clothes, they couldnât help but want to try them on and buy one.
Unconsciously, they ended up purchasing three or four pieces and then realized with dismay, âOh no, now I donât have money to buy Big Brotherâs merchandise.â
Lu Qinshang said indifferently, âIf you donât have money, then donât buy it. Iâm not short of money.â
The Maple Leaves were so touched that they continued to cry. âBig Brother, youâre really too awesome. Then Iâll go buy one last dress.â Lu Qinshang:
Now, he couldnât even compare to a piece of clothing??
The shop was very busy. Suisui and Su Ying had been called over to help, and the situation online was not much better.
Although they had prepared their manpower and stock in advance, they didnât expect the fans to be so enthusiastic. They bought everything in three hours and all the goods were taken off the shelves.
Lin Qingqianâs phone was ringing non-stop, and Han Liubai was not much better. He helped to answer the calls and contact the manufacturer.
When Jiang Yanshen came over, Lin Qingqianâs voice was hoarse from answering the call. When she saw him, she was first stunned, then her bright eyes couldnât help but be filled with joy.
When her toes moved towards him, she stopped. There were too many reporters at the event location. It was very easy for her to expose her relationship if she went over like this.
When the reporters saw Jiang Yanshen coming over, they all rushed over as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Lu Yuan was already prepared. He rushed to the front and separated the reporters from Director Jiang. âPlease make wayâ¦â
Luo Tianxue, who was originally enjoying being the center of attention, was instantly ignored.. She glanced at Jiang Yanshen, who was comparable to a celebrity, and mocked softly, âDog of a man! If you like to steal the limelight so much, why donât you debut as an idol!â
