Yue Xin’s eyes shone and she was about to thank him.
However, Shen Zhiyi casually interrupted, “Uncle, we must take into account the order of arrival for everything, right? I remember that since I first became an adult, you have always wanted to pair me and Zhanbei together. Now that I was about to agree to being together with him, you found a third party to make a cuckold out of me. Isn’t that too immoral?”
Lu Zhengyu was stunned, and his eyes were full of scrutiny. “You’ve decided? Why so suddenly?”
Under Yue Xin’s gaze, who looked like she could eat her alive, Shen Zhiyi said seriously, “I was unwilling previously as I felt that his and Lin Wanwan’s love was as solid as gold and I didn’t want to be a third party. Now that Uncle has said that they won’t be together, of course I’m tempted. I have grown up together with Zhanbei since we were young, and I have liked him for more years than Yue Xin had.”
Lu Zhengyu pondered for a while. Then, he laughed.
Regardless of which aspect, Shen Zhiyi was much stronger than Yue Xin. No, there was no comparing them at all.
“Ok, I’ll announce at the banquet half a year from now that the two of you are about to get engaged. Both of you are childhood sweethearts. He definitely wouldn’t embarrass you in public.”
Lu Zhanbei would soon understand that he and Lin Wanwan were completely finished. As he was in despair, the chances of him agreeing to this business marriage was very high.
Shen Zhiyi was all smiles. “I’ll listen to your arrangement for everything.”
“No!” Yue Xin was full of unwillingness.
In the previous moment, she’d thought her dream had finally came true. The next second, Lu Zhengyu was going to betroth Brother Zhanbei to Shen Zhiyi. It was too hard to accept this!
“Uncle Lu, hadn’t you promised me…”
Lu Zhengyu frowned and raised his hand. “Enough, I have decided.”
Yue Xin’s stomach that was full of jealousy and unwillingness quickly calmed down once she met his cold eyes.
She bit her lip, grabbed her bag, and dashed out.
Lu Zhengyu didn’t care if this would cause dissatisfaction with the Yue family. As the head of the Lu family, he had the capability to go back on his words.
“Zhiyi, you made the right choice.”
Shen Zhiyi looked at him, and the glimmer of light in her eyes shone slightly.
She suffered from face blindness. Aside from those who had more unique looks, she normally treated others as out of sight, out of mind.
Lu Zhengyu and Lu Zhanbei looked very much like each other – in terms of both appearance and character.
Lu Zhengyu was a possessive wolf king who had overbearing power.
On the other hand, Lu Zhanbei was like a lazy lion. If someone didn’t offend him, he wouldn’t offend the other party. If someone offended him, that person would end up dead.
Once these two men start a war, they wouldn’t let the matter rest until the sky fell and the earth opened up.
“Uncle, I’m very happy too.”
Lu Zhengyu laughed out loud. “Haha, shouldn’t you change the way you address me?”
Shen Zhiyi looked down. The flirtatious look she had when together with Lu Zhanbei was gone. Instead, she had an elegant and noble look, like a daughter from a prestigious family who had walked out from a beautiful misty rain.
“There’s no rush. It’s not too late to change the way I address you after the banquet.”
“Sure, you will call me Father sooner or later anyway!”
After the two of them had discussed the details of the banquet, Lu Zhengyu left first.
Shen Zhiyi took a sip of tea and looked in a certain direction. She whispered lightly, “Lu Zhanbei, finally…”
…
Lin Wanwan, who’d dashed out, bumped into Gu Mo.
“Ms. Lin, what happened? Why do you have such an ugly look? Where’s Sir?”
“I’m alright. Lu Zhanbei’s coming out immediately. Wait for a while.”
Lin Wanwan walked out of the building area. As she passed through a bamboo forest, Lu Zhanbei caught up with her.
“Lin Wanwan!”
Lu Zhanbei rushed up to grab her hand and pulled her over forcefully.
