"Dongzi, I'm sorry. It was my fault before. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you, let alone doubted your sincerity towards me."
Seeing that no one came out of the house, Lian Ruowei stared at Dongzi and said with unprecedented affection: "I regretted it as soon as you left that day. In my whole life, no one has ever treated me better than you."
, and no one is like you who treats me well not because of my family and origin!"
Dongzi looked back at Lian Ruowei, feeling Lian Ruowei's gentle side for the first time.
But after what happened with Lu Xiaohong, Dongzi discovered that he and Lian Ruowei were really not from the same world.
After passing the test again, although Mr. Chen told him that he would be fine no matter whether he passed this test or not, but thinking about the poisonous nature of the white bell snake and the fact that Lian Ruowei did not give him any hints about the danger,
Dongzi felt a chill in her heart.
It's really heartbreaking.
After Dongzi and Lian Ruowei looked at each other for a few seconds, he pretended to look away casually. He did not respond to Lian Ruowei's words, but asked: "That Zhao Ke, has he liked you since he was a child?"
"Haha, do you like me?"
Lian Ruowei sneered and shook her head: "What he likes is not me, but my father's status and the help he may have after becoming my father's son-in-law!"
"That Zhao Ke is also in politics like your father?"
Dongzi was stunned for a moment, then said: "Looking at his dress, it doesn't really look like him. I thought he was a rich second-generation son."
"Their family is in the real estate business, and there are many procedures that require my father's approval."
Lian Ruowei curled her lips and said: "Originally, I could have ignored him completely, but his mother is somewhat related to my grandpa, and she is very good at making trouble. She often uses small things to make grandpa very happy, so she came with us.
Let’s move around more closely.”
"Okay, let's not talk about that annoying guy for now!"
Lian Ruowei took Dongzi's arm, leaned her head gently on Dongzi's shoulder and said, "Dongzi, I almost thought I was going to lose you. You don't know how sad I was after you left."
As she spoke, Lian Ruowei raised her head slightly, looked into Dongzi's eyes and said, "Dongzi, we will always be together from now on and never be separated again, okay?"
Dongzi looked at Lian Ruowei's face, and suddenly felt a sense of vigilance that she had never felt before.
He didn't know why he was like this. It was clear that Lian Ruowei's gentle look was what he had always dreamed of, but now, he felt extremely unreal.
"Dongzi, do you still mind what I said to you before?"
Lian Ruowei looked at Dongzi and said: "In the past two days, you were always quarreling with me about Lu Xiaohong. I felt panicked, so I spoke a little unscrupulously..."
"Let him go by the past!"
Dongzi raised his hand and touched Lian Ruowei's face, shook his head and said, "Ruowei, what I'm more worried about is that in the future, if we encounter Brother Lu and your cousin Chen Shanshan again, I'm worried..."
"Don't worry, I won't argue with you about them anymore." Lian Ruowei raised her hand and gently covered Dongzi's mouth.
"They will get married soon. After they get married, they will go to settle abroad and we will not meet them again!" Lian Ruowei said.
"Going to settle abroad?" Dongzi asked eagerly: "When will they get married? When will they leave?"
"Lu Xiaohong is ill. Now cousin Shanshan is accompanying him to recuperate in a very safe place. When he recovers, Shanshan will hold a wedding with him. Dongzi, please stop worrying about their affairs, okay?"
Lian Ruowei said.
"Lu Xiaohong really doesn't like Hu Ling anymore. No one can control other people's hearts. Even if outsiders feel regretful about emotional matters, they can't interfere. We can't hurt ourselves because of their affairs.
Feelings." Lian Ruowei said.
Dongzi nodded, but secretly had an idea in his heart.
No matter what, he must find the very safe place Lian Ruowei said and ask Lu Xiaohong face to face.
Love is indeed a fickle thing, but he really doesn't want to believe that Lu Xiaohong would change his heart so easily.
The courtyard of the Chen family is very large. Although it is only a three-entry house, it covers a large area. There are flower halls on both sides of the garden, and behind the rockery is another door, leading to another courtyard.
Although it is simple, it is full of luxury.
The two of them were chatting and shopping, and it was noon before they knew it.
Chen Yuefang called Lian Ruowei and asked them to go back to the front hall for lunch.
The young man named Zhao Ke is still there, but Lian Ruowei's father, Lian Anping, is missing.
"Mom, where is my father?" Lian Ruowei asked.
"Your father is having a social gathering at noon. He will take Dongzi to wash his hands first. After washing his hands, he can come over for dinner." Chen Yuefang said while helping the servants set the dining table.
There is a carved wooden shelf placed in the corner of the dining room. There is an auspicious brass basin on the shelf, and the basin is filled with most of the water.
A little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old was wearing a Chinese maid uniform and standing quietly by the basin with a few snow-white towels on her arms.
Lian Ruowei took Dongzi to the basin, put her hand into the water and washed it. As soon as she raised her hand, the little girl took a towel from her arm and wiped the water stains on Lian Ruowei's hand.
.
The little girl struggled to pick up the copper basin, poured the water in the basin into the bucket at her feet, replaced it with clean water, and carried it to the wooden stand.
"Let me do it!"
Dongzi had never been served like this before, so she reached out and took the basin from the little girl's hand.
"No, this is my job!" The little girl was a little frightened, holding the basin and refusing to let go. The two of them pulled the water out of the basin and sprinkled it on Dongzi's coat.
There was a sneer from behind, Dongzi looked back, Zhao Ke was looking at him with disdain, and said angrily: "Rural people are rural people, they don't have much knowledge to talk about, and they still tease the little servant after washing their hands, Ruowei,
The boyfriend you chose is not good!"
The little girl blushed, and while hurriedly bowing and saying to Dongzi, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" she looked at Zhao Ke and said, "Master Biao, he didn't molest me, he just wanted to help me!"
"Get out of here, you're just a little girl. Do you have the right to interrupt what the master is saying? There are no rules. I'll ask Mother Chen to kick you out of the Chen family later."
Zhao Ke glared and shouted at the little maid.
The little girl hurriedly placed the copper basin of the auspicious beast on the wooden stand, and with a "pop" she knelt down towards Zhao Ke, "I'm sorry, Master Biao, I was wrong. Please forgive Xiao Ju this time. Xiao Ju will never do it again."
Don’t dare to interrupt!”
"You get up first!"
Dongzi bent down and pulled the girl named Xiaoju up, turned to look at Lian Ruowei and Chen Yuefang and said: "Ruowei, Aunt Chen, this matter is my fault and has nothing to do with Xiaoju. If there is any fault, it is me who is the guest."
You don’t know how to do as guests please, and if you break the rules, it will bring trouble to Xiaoju.”
