Lu Huan hid behind the bushes. She didn't expect that she would be discovered. She came out quietly, lowered her head and whispered: "Sister-in-law, it's me."

Ji Xingchen asked in confusion, "Lu Huan? What are you doing there?"

Lu Huan wrung his fingers and said nothing.

Ji Xingchen waved to Lu Huan, "Come here."

Lu Huan took a few steps forward honestly and stood in front of Ji Xingchen. She put her hand into her pocket, her expression hesitant.

Ji Xingchen moved to the side, reached out and took Lu Huan's arm, pulling him to sit next to him.

The swing seat is quite large, and it is not a problem to accommodate two people.

Seeing Lu Huan's reserved look, Ji Xingchen couldn't help but ask, "Are you afraid of me?"

In fact, Ji Xingchen and Lu Huan didn't see each other very often, except for the weekly family banquets. Lu Huan was shy and didn't like to talk, so Ji Xingchen paid almost no attention to this sister-in-law.

But the little girl has red lips and white teeth, which is quite flattering.

Lu Huan shook his head, and finally carefully took out an exquisite glass bottle from his pocket and handed it to Ji Xingchen.

Ji Xingchen didn't pick it up immediately, "What is this?"

Lu Huan raised his head slightly, and the moonlight illuminated his sister-in-law's face even more beautifully. She stared blankly for two seconds, then she immediately lowered her head, put the bottle in Ji Xingchen's arms, and replied in a low voice, "Sugar."

sugar?

Ji Xingchen raised her eyebrows slightly, shook the glass bottle in her hand, and saw inside the candy-like icing that Lu Yanbei had just peeled off for her at the dinner table.

She lowered her eyes and looked at Lu Huan, "Did you give it to me?"

Lu Huan nodded.

"Thank you." Ji Xingchen said with a smile, "I like it very much."

Lu Huan was stunned, feeling happy in her heart. She mustered up the courage to look at Ji Xingchen.

The woman looked at the bottle in her hand intently, with a faint smile on her lips, and her eyes were like stars, bright and beautiful.

Lu Huan felt that the little sister-in-law was not as scary as her mother said. She was so beautiful and must have a good heart.

Ji Xingchen pinched Lu Huan's face. The child's face was soft and felt quite good to the touch.

Lu Huan was startled for a moment by Ji Xingchen's sudden move, then his face turned red and his head lowered.

Ji Xingchen thought Lu Huan's reaction was cute, so she pinched her again and said, "You are much cuter than your mother."

When Chen Lin was mentioned, the smile on Lu Huan's lips disappeared, as if he was resisting the name.

Ji Xingchen thought for a while, then took off the newly bought bracelet from his wrist, "Stretch your hand over here."

Lu Huan's eyes were full of doubts, but he still handed over his hand obediently, and then he felt a cool touch on his wrist.

The sister-in-law gave her a bracelet.

Ji Xingchen's foxy eyes turned up, "It looks good on you."

Lu Huan shook her head. She didn't give candies to her sister-in-law to get her sister-in-law's bracelet.

Ji Xingchen stopped Lu Huan from trying to take off his clothes, "Don't you like the gift my sister-in-law gave you?"

Lu Huan quickly said, "I like it."

She likes whatever her sister-in-law gives her.

"If you like it, don't pick it off. Later, my sister-in-law will get you a big diamond and make it into a ring as a necklace." Ji Xingchen said while gesturing, "Girls, they have to be shiny."

Lu Huan smiled.

"Lu Huan." A sudden voice broke the beautiful moment.

Lu Huan stiffened, climbed down from the swing, and looked at Lu Chen, "Brother..."

Lu Chen said in a deep voice, "Your sister-in-law and I have something to talk about, so you should go back first."

Lu Huan glanced at Ji Xingchen reluctantly, nodded and left.

Ji Xingchen frowned and said softly, "Lu Huan is also a member of this family. Don't always talk to her in that commanding tone."

Lu Chen: "I am his brother and I have the obligation to educate her."

Ji Xingchen was speechless for a while. She was too lazy to talk nonsense to Lu Chen about this issue because it was useless no matter how much she said.

"Brother, if you have something to tell me," Ji Xingchen's tone was not very good, but it didn't sound too bad. It was her usual arrogant attitude.

Lu Chen gave her a cryptic look, "I heard that you helped Yanbei on the Nanwan project?"

Ji Xingchen raised his eyebrows, "I'm just treating the daughter of the Gu family to a meal. An ignorant old man like me doesn't understand things in the mall."

Lu Chen was silent for a moment, and then said warmly: "Xingchen, in my eyes, you have never been an ignorant person."

Ji Xingchen's expression softened.

Lu Chen said: "I know that the relationship between you and Yanbei has not been good in the past two years. If you have any grievances, you can tell me. The overseas project will be over in three months at most. By then..."

Ji Xingchen interrupted him with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, brother, but marriage is like a person who knows whether the water he drinks is warm or cold."

Lu Chen looked slightly startled, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, I have crossed the line, but Xingchen, I still want to advise you, Lu Yanbei is not someone you can control. He is a man with deep roots in the city, good at scheming, and there are others around him

There will be no good results if you are with him surrounded by so many women."

Ji Xingchen's fox eyes narrowed slightly.

She knew very well what kind of person Lu Yanbei was.

But Lu Chen was afraid that someone would come and tell him this for no reason, and why.

Lu Chen continued to act like a concerned elder brother and said elegantly: "If you want to divorce him, I can help you."

Ji Xingchen raised his eyes and looked at Lu Chen for a few seconds, then stood up from the swing and said with a smile: "I appreciate your kindness. One day Lu Yanbei and I can no longer live together, I will definitely ask you to help me share more of the family property."

, it’s getting late, I have to go back.”

The people in the Lu family are more and more scheming. Lu Chen came to her to tell her this tonight simply because she helped Lu Yanbei, and this favor threatened Lu Chen's status.

The marriage between Lu Ji's family is the icing on the cake for Lu Yanbei, but it may be a threat to Lu Chen.

She is not a fool who can be manipulated by others.

When he returned to the house, Lu Yanbei happened to come out with his coat.

The man's shirt had three or four buttons unbuttoned, revealing a sharp collarbone, and the ends of his peach-blossom eyes were slightly raised under gold-rimmed lenses.

The tone was cold: "Have you finished talking about the past?"

Ji Xingchen asked, "Have you finished talking to grandpa?"

Lu Yanbei glanced at her, passed Ji Xingchen, and left.

Ji Xingchen took a breath and warned himself not to get angry with the villain.

On the car.

Ji Xingchen got straight to the point, "Regarding the Ji's joint venture, has grandpa agreed to come forward?"

Lu Yanbei glanced at her slowly and said, "I will certainly do what I promise you. Miss Ji, you can rest assured."

Ji Xingchen snorted coldly, "It's best this way."

There was a moment of silence in the car.

Lu Yanbei's posture was lazy, as if he asked casually: "Why do you help me?"

Ji Xingchen turned his head and looked at him.

A faint smile appeared on the corners of Lu Yanbei's lips, his peach blossom eyes were evil, and the smell of Gu Siwen's scum came out again.

He put his arms around Ji Xingchen's slender waist, leaned down to close the distance, and breathed softly into Ji Xingchen's ears.

His voice was low and seductive, "Is it because I love you too much?"
