If Kexin could stoop to such actions, she might as well be trying to sow discord in the matter.
Moreover, Ah Zhi and Beicheng were blood brothers.
They had the best relationship.
“Kexin… All Zhi wouldn’t lie about Beicheng’s matter.” Old Madam Lu said tactfully, “Don’t be stubborn and target Yining anymore.”
Hearing this, Chen Kexin felt as if she had been struck by lightning. “Grandma, you’re actually speaking up for Jiang Yining?”
“I’m not taking sides. I’m just stating the facts.” Old Madam Lu stood up and walked up to her. She gently pulled her arm. “Kexin, stop fooling around.”
The whole family was already irritated by her.
If she continued to behave unreasonably.
Everyone would only grow more resentful of her.
Old Madam Lu still hoped that Chen Kexin could reintegrate into the Lu family.
Chen Kexin found it absurd.
She had only left for a few days… Jiang Yining managed to win over the affectionate Old Madam who cared for her deeply!
What a skillful move!
Chen Kexin pushed Old Madam’s hand away. She suppressed the sadness and anger in her heart and said, “If you’re willing to be deceived by her, 1 won’t say more. I hope you won’t regret today’s decision in the future!”
Having said that, she left resolutely.
However, Lu Zhi stopped her and said, “Chen Kexin, this is the last time. If you dare to come to the Lu family again in the future, don’t blame us for being rude to you.”
Chen Kexin paused for a moment and then quickened her pace.
They watched as her figure disappeared from their sight.
Everyone from the Lu family retracted their gazes, their faces filled with awkwardness.
They believed All Zhi’s words were true.
However, they still felt weird knowing that Jiang Yining and Lin Yan were good friends. They didn’t know how to face her now.
Old Master Lu said in a deep voice, “What are you all standing there for? Go cut the cake.”
The crowd surrounded Old Madam Lu, hastily making their way to the dining room.
Old Master Lu approached Jiang Yining and said, “Come home tomorrow and explain what happened today properly.”
He had tacitly agreed that Ah Zhi had chased Chen Kexin away, but that didn’t mean that the matter was over.
Jiang Yining had to give everyone an explanation!
“Yes.”
Jiang Yining nodded.
Old Master Lu silently followed the others.
Only Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi were left in the huge living room.
Jiang Yining bit her lower lip lightly. “You don’t have anything to ask me?”
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
Lu Zhi almost simultaneously countered with a question.
Jiang Yining was stunned.
Then, she said in a low voice, “Lin Yan is indeed my good friend. 1 voluntarily married you because I wanted to investigate her whereabouts. But Lu Zhi, I swear to you, I never had any intention of harming you. And the truth is not as you all have said. Lin Yan never harmed Lu Beicheng. 1 received emails from her. It was Lu Beicheng’s decision to take her away. Your brother was the one who caused the accident.”
After concealing it for so long, she finally said it.
Jiang Yining immediately felt much more relaxed.
She wasn’t afraid of being chased out by the Lu family, but she felt sorry for hiding it from Lu Zhi for so long.
Lu Zhi murmured, “Marry me just for the sake of your good friend?”
Jiang Yining nodded.
Lu Zhi chuckled lightly and a dark emotion flashed across his dark eyes.
“Alright, 1 understand.”
With that, he turned around and left.
Jiang Yining frowned slightly.
What did he understand?
Was he angry at her? But he had just stood up to defend her, so what was the reason…
Jiang Yining couldn’t read his mind.
She stood there in a daze.
After a while, Shen Man approached her with a piece of cake and handed it to her.
“Have some.”
Jiang Yining lowered her eyes and said, “Mom, don’t you blame me?”
“How can 1 bear to blame you? Yining, you’re a good child. 1 know that.” Shen Man believed in Jiang Yning more than anyone else. She was sure that Jiang Yining had no ill intentions towards Lu Zhi. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have done those compromising things. “Don’t worry. The matter between Beicheng and Lin Yan has nothing to do with you. The family will understand sooner or later.”
Jiang Yining was a little touched.
Before the matter was exposed, she had thought of countless possibilities.
But it wasn’t like now…
It warmed her heart.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Shen Man, but swallowed it back in the end.
Shen Man silently accompanied her and ate a piece of cake.
Then, she patted her shoulder and said, “Go back and rest early. As for Ah Zhi, 1’11 get the housekeeper to inform his doctor later.”
Today’s banquet was disrupted by Chen Kexin.
No one was in the mood to continue..
