After hearing Yang Su’s words, it made sense, "So you mean Li Weihuan and Lu Yinchu both kept their acquaintance a secret? Why? Were they afraid you’d get mad and couldn’t accept it?"
"I don’t know!" Nanxi’s eyes sparkled.
"I think it should be this way. If they really knew each other or were friends, as the saying goes ’don’t covet a friend’s wife’, so even if Lu Yinchu found you, he didn’t show up immediately and hid it from you. Just think, if you had known Li Weihuan and Lu Yinchu knew each other, or even were friends, would you have agreed if Lu Yinchu pursued you again?"
Nanxi thought for a while and shook her head, "No."
"Well, there you go! Lu Yinchu and Li Weihuan kept you in the dark, they probably did it out of desperation, especially Lu Yinchu. You are now his wife after so many years, it’s not easy, he must have been scared of losing you and didn’t dare to tell you! As for Weihuan, I’m not sure..."
Nanxi pursed her lips and said nothing.
"And Han Baobao’s claim about the concealed marriage, I think it’s the same. You were once Li Weihuan’s girlfriend. People in the Lu family don’t know, but people in the Li family do. If you and Lu Yinchu got married, and people saw each other at the wedding, how would people in the Lu family look at you when they saw you, especially Li Weihuan’s mother? After all, the Lu Yinchu is protecting you, and perhaps Li Weihuan is also protecting you..."
Nanxi was slightly moved, biting her lip and said, "By your way of thinking then, they did nothing wrong, and they were all for my good!"
"This is just my guess. However, I understand why Lu Yinchu did all those things for you, and for Li Weihuan, despite being a good person and loving you a lot, it was surprisingly unexpected... Anyways, Li Weihuan definitely won’t hurt you. If he really helped Lu Yinchu with good intention, that will show how admirable and trustworthy Lu Yinchu is for you to entrust your life to!"
"Enough with the ’buts’!" said Yang Su, "You should know best how Li Weihuan and Lu Yinchu treat you... Besides, you know Han Baobao’s temperament too, you can’t believe everything she says, you need to trust your own judgement, understand?"
Nanxi pursed her lips, and it seemed like it really was as she said!
Nanxi nodded, "I think what you said makes sense, so what should I do now? Should I ask them directly?"
Yang Su frowned, "I think, whether to ask or not is not a big deal, but no matter what, don’t make a fuss. Understand, empathy is the most important. Besides, they didn’t hurt you, it’s even more necessary to think from their perspective!"
Nanxi pondered and nodded again, praising, "Susu, I found you really have the potential to be a ’heart-to-heart sister’!"
"Ok, the ’heart-to-heart sister’ job ends here, now on to the serious stuff. Just as you came, I was researching a recipe. Later, you will help me taste test!"
"Taste test?" Nanxi blinked, looking at her unbelievably, "Susu, are you going to cook?"
"Isn’t it? I’m waiting for the ingredients! Zhang Mu went to buy them!"
"Zhang Mu? Wasn’t Zhang Mu locked up...umm, I mean, his Dad restricted his freedom, didn’t he?" －＿－｜｜｜Seems to be the same thing!
Yang Su nodded, "Yeah, but Zhang Mu’s old man went on a business trip yesterday, so he finally got temporary freedom. Anyway, he had nothing to do, so I asked him to buy some ingredients, and to help me taste test the food!"
Nanxi laughed, "Actually, Susu, I think Zhang Mu seems to be somewhat liking you."
"Pfft—" Yang Su almost spat out, "Like me? What are you talking about? That’s ridiculous!"
Nanxi squinted at her, indicating disbelief!
Yang Su sighed helplessly, admitting, "Okay, truth be told, there was a time when I thought he liked me too and deliberately kept my distance from him, but in the end, I found out it wasn’t ..."
Yang Su, leaning mysteriously close to Nanxi, blinked, "Nanxi, don’t be shocked when I tell you this, but Zhang Mu, he actually, likes Sister Qiaoqiao..."
"Pfft—" this time it was Nanxi’s turn to spit out, "How could that be ..."
Although Zhang Mu occasionally talked about Liang Qiaoqiao, calling her his goddess and such, even saying he liked her devilish figure... But like? Not enough, right?
