C180 It Is Laughable (1/2)
The moment Leng Lie called them, Xu Jiaren and Mei Juann bade farewell and rushed towards Leng Family. When Leng Lie returned, he could not see Xu Jiaren. He called Hua Hua, but who knew that Hua Hua had already gone back, but Xu Jiaren had not returned yet.
When Xu Jiaren returned, Leng Lie brought him downstairs to eat dinner.
Lu Niyun's food was made by a chef. When she was pregnant, Xu Yanmei took it very seriously. The way Lu Niyun ate and drank was extremely strict.
Xu Jiaren chewed on her food slowly, but before long, she saw that there was almost nothing left in front of him. Xu Yanmei frowned and looked at Xu Jiaren with a displeased expression. Was this the reincarnation of a hungry ghost or something?
Putting down the chopsticks, Xu Yanmei said something that was especially provocative: ”If you want to eat one, you won't even have one … This wife of mine, she truly has let down her mother-in-law. ”
Leng Aotian pursed his lips, not intending to bother with Xu Yanmei. Xu Yanmei looked at Lu Niyun, hoping that Lu Niyun would support her. Never would she have thought, that Lu Niyun would only lower her head, as if she did not know what was happening on the table.
Xu Yanmei rolled her eyes and cursed in her heart: Ingrate.
She changed right after he rescued her.
Not daring to pull back the chair and leave, Xu Yanmei's face darkened as she picked up the chopsticks with her slender hands. She looked at Leng Aotian fearfully. Noticing that Leng Aotian did not have any intention to berate her, she continued to speak.
old housekeeper stood at the side, while the other servants also smelled the difference in the air. They looked at each other and stood at the side while trembling in fear.
Xu Jiaren always maintained the same attitude, which was that no matter what happened on the table, she would not forget to eat. There was one thing special about Leng Family. The place to eat was actually a battlefield. Whoever lost wouldn't be able to eat. The one who earned should be the winner. At the very least, those who lost wouldn't eat, but those who won would eat more.
Eating and drinking to one's heart's content was the truth, causing trouble for no reason. Eating unsaturated foods was still annoying. After Xu Jiaren finished eating, he looked towards Leng Aotian.
”Father, I'm done eating.”
Leng Aotian maintained a straight face and nodded: ”Let's go.”
Xu Jiaren nodded, the servant came up and pulled up her chair, then went upstairs. Not long after, Leng Lie also came up.
”Did you hear what Xu Yanmei said?” Leng Lie immediately pinched Xu Jiaren's face, the temperature of her fingertips pressing on Origin Energy.
”What did she just say?”
”I told you to eat less, it feels like the house is about to collapse from eating.”
Xu Jiaren curled her lips: ”I just ate a little, just like that, I …”
”Leng Lie, what are you doing? Let go of your hand.”
A pair of large hands pressed onto Xu Jiaren's waist, and with a grasp, Leng Lie seemed to have thought of something, and after a moment he thought about it, ”Mn, I did indeed eat a lot. ”It seems like they have all gained weight.”
Xu Jiaren's eyes opened wide, this... Really fat? The Aunt Liu had said the same thing when she saw him last time, and Leng Lie had also said the same thing this time. It's over, it's over. I've really gotten fatter.
Nervously pinching her waist, Xu Jiaren broke free from Leng Lie's grasp and ran towards the mirror. Looking around, she saw a beautiful woman's face in the mirror that looked like she was about to cry.
”I'm really going to lose weight …”
Xu Jiaren looked at Leng Lie, ”What should I do, can I lose weight successfully?”
Leng Lie did not say anything, but pressed his angled face against Xu Jiaren's shoulder, and used both hands to clamp her buttocks: ”Don't lose weight, this butt is perfectly round, it feels good touching it.”
The vulgar smile made Xu Jiaren's mouth twitch violently. As she angrily turned around, the man's hands covered everything. Her beautiful face flushed red, making Xu Jiaren feel especially charming when she looked at her crimson cheeks.
”It's very comfortable touching here.”
”You freak!”
Xu Jiaren covered her face, got away from Leng Lie and ran away.
”Niyun, how do you explain what happened at the table?”
In the hall below, only Lu Niyun and Xu Yanmei were left.
Lu Niyun on the other hand, seemed to be at ease, as if she was carefree: ”Mother, did something happen while we were eating?”
Xu Yanmei wanted to say something, but hesitated, and then said softly: ”Are you pretending not to know, or do you pretend not to know?”
Lu Niyun showed a sincere expression. ”Mother, I really didn't hear it.”
Then she said in a particularly piteous voice, ”After I got pregnant, I became a little distracted. Occasionally, my mind will wander, but I don't know if my mind is elsewhere. ”
”When I came back to my senses, I saw your gloomy face and wondered what had happened to you.” Lu Niyun acted pitifully, ”Mother, if I did something wrong, it would be natural for me to do so. I shouldn't have been distracted at that time. ”
Hearing Lu Niyun's words, Xu Yanmei felt that there was no longer a need to speak.
In the following days, Xu Yanmei gradually understood that this Lu Niyun hated her. This wasn't the first time he didn't help or support her, but it was the second time. She could finally see through Lu Niyun's true face, so no matter what Xu Yanmei did, she would always defend.
Although he was confident that Lu Niyun knew the principle of mutual destruction and prosperity, he did not have the confidence that Lu Niyun would not do something that would not benefit herself.
The servant by Xu Yanmei's side whispered a few words into Xu Yanmei's ear before Xu Yanmei left in a hurry.
Lu Niyun quietly came out from a corner and looked at Xu Yanmei's leaving figure with a bloodthirsty smile. In the days she was locked in that small house, she thought of many things.
