Du Xinyue agreed to Du Rui's request and made an appointment with her father to talk about such an important matter alone. She got up and left. She originally wanted to stay and spend the night with Du Rui. But when she saw this person beside her,
The annoying fly decided to leave.
"I didn't expect you to be so meticulous in your work." Lu Chen waited for Du Xinyue to leave, then slowly spoke and praised Du Rui. He didn't expect that Du Rui had to go through this in order to arouse the enemy.
Du Xinyue came to deliver the message. At that time, she was a little confused because she invited Du Xinyue to come over. Now she finally came to her senses.
"Don't think that you are the smartest person in the world, and everyone else is stupid." Du Rui said with a smile. Obviously she had her own way of doing things, and she didn't need Lu Chen to guide her on how to solve this matter.
After all, this was a matter related to her father, and of course she wanted to solve it herself. Lu Chen was an outsider after all, and she didn't want to involve him, but she also knew that she couldn't solve this mess with her own strength.
Lu Chen's appearance was not only to solve some difficult problems for himself, but also to give himself confidence. With this master controlling the situation, he no longer had to be so timid in doing things.
Of course Lu Chen didn't know what Du Rui was thinking. If Lu Chen knew that Du Rui was just asking him to do odd jobs, he would probably stand up immediately, pat his butt and leave.
Soon news came from Du Xinyue that Du Wancheng was free that night. Hearing that Du Rui was coming to see him, he went home early to cook and prepare to treat his niece to a good meal.
A homely meal.
Naturally, Du Rui did not leave Lu Chen alone at home. On the one hand, Lu Chen could avoid another verbal dispute with his father. On the other hand, Lu Chen was now his fiancé. There was nothing he could do to meet his second uncle.
It's just gossip. Besides, Lu Chen also knows this news, so he can be regarded as a witness.
Du Rui didn't bother herself too much. After all, she was meeting an elder. She just dressed casually and put on light makeup, giving her the appearance of a lady. Naturally, Lu Chen would not bother himself even more, but due to the current situation
With this embarrassing identity, he was going to meet someone else's second uncle. Lu Chen had to tidy up his makeup a little bit, so he couldn't lose face for this Du Rui.
Ding dong! Lu Chen and Du Rui stood outside a unit and rang the doorbell. At this time, Lu Chen finally began to take stock of the surrounding environment.
This is a quite ordinary residential area, not high-end at all, and it even looks quite old. The houses that ordinary working-class people live in are average, and the people who live here don't look any different from their own family backgrounds.
.But Lu Chen knew that the person living behind this door was no ordinary person. He was Du Rui's second uncle, who was now in charge of most of the Du family's financial power.
Low-key! Apart from this word that Lu Chen thought of, there is no other word that can describe this Du Wancheng. By the way! If it's not low-key, it can only be crazy! After all, why would a rich man abuse himself so much? There is no need for a luxurious villa.
Is it okay to live in a shabby apartment like this?
However, the old man could be trusted to hand over the ancestral property to the hands of Du Wanchun, but not to the hands of Du Wanchun. Of course, this Du Wancheng is not a lunatic, he must have something extraordinary. Thinking about this, Lu Chen really wants to meet him
Now the head of the Du family.
With a creak, the door was opened, and the first thing that popped out was a little head.
"Sister Rui, are you here?" The person who opened the door was none other than Lu Chen's nemesis, Du Xinyue.
"Yeah!" Du Rui smiled sweetly and nodded to Du Xinyue.
"Why are you here?" Du Xinyue looked away from Du Rui and immediately saw Lu Chen standing next to Du Rui. Her smiling face immediately elongated.
"I'm your brother-in-law, why can't I come?" Lu Chen smiled, happily quarreling with this little girl, and using his identity as brother-in-law to suppress her.
I didn't expect that Lu Chen would get into the act so quickly. Du Rui's face turned red when she didn't come, and she couldn't help but pinch Lu Chen's thigh.
Lu Chen was in pain, but he grinned and did not cry out. He grabbed Du Rui's slender waist and couldn't help but tighten his arms, making a very loving look. The little girl who opened the door was so angry that she opened the door.
All crooked.
"Go away, I don't have a brother-in-law like you. You are not welcome in my home. Sister Rui, come in quickly." Du Xinyue pulled Du Rui from Lu Chen's arms and pulled her into the room.
In the meantime, he quickly prepared to close the door and shut Lu Chen out of the room, who was stunned.
"Xinyue, what's going on?" At this time, a middle-aged man also came to the door, but he was attracted by the noise.
"Rui'er. You're here, come in quickly." Du Rui was the first to see Du Rui inside the door, and happily welcomed Du Rui in.
"Who are you?" At this moment, I glanced at Lu Chen standing outside the door. I looked this young man up and down. He had an ordinary appearance and ordinary dress. The ordinary one couldn't be more ordinary. But it's certain.
It's because I don't know this young man at all.
"Hello, you are Uncle Du. My name is Lu Chen. I am Du Rui's fiancé." Lu Chen stretched out his hand and looked at Du Wancheng. A suit of jacket that fit perfectly reflected his perfect figure.
She was dripping and exquisite, but not completely out of shape due to gaining weight, and the ordinary dress similar to Lu Chen instantly made Lu Chen feel close to him. He couldn't help but smiled at Du Wancheng and stretched out his hand.
own hands.
"Hello, hello. So you are Rui'er's fiancé. I think Rui'er has told you about me." When Du Wancheng heard Lu Chen's identity, he was slightly surprised at first, and then frowned slightly.
Here we are. Obviously we didn’t expect that this ordinary young man would be Du Rui’s fiancé. The two of them seemed completely incompatible and were not from the same world at all, so they frowned slightly. However,
Looking aside, Du Rui didn't seem to stand up and make any refutation because of Lu Chen's words, but looked at herself shyly. In an instant, she burst out laughing, and quickly welcomed Lu Chen in.
"Dad, he is not my brother-in-law at all, don't let him in." Du Xinyue was like a door god at this time, and she still stopped Lu Chen unyieldingly.
"You girl, you are a guest from afar. No matter whether he is your future brother-in-law or not, we will welcome him as a guest." Du Wan immediately pulled away his daughter to make room for Lu Chen to walk in.
When Lu Chen heard what Du Wancheng said, his face froze slightly. He didn't expect that Du Wancheng was also not optimistic about the two people like Du Xinyue, but because Du Rui was present, he didn't say anything.
However, Lu Chen thought about it and figured it out. Putting himself in Du Wancheng's perspective, if he really had a daughter like Du Rui, he would not admit it at all when he saw a son-in-law like him. After all, he looked at Du Wancheng
Rui also felt that the two of them simply didn't match each other.
"Come on, come on, you guys sit down and wait for a while. My food will be cooked in no time." After Du Wancheng welcomed Du Rui and Lu Chen in, he asked Du Xinyue to greet the two of them before he got into the kitchen again.
among.
"Sit down!" Du Xinyue greeted Lu Chen angrily, and her words were cold and cold. However, due to her father's face, Du Xinyue could only pretend to mean it.
Lu Chen was not polite. He sat down on the sofa and looked at the unit. It had a standard two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. One room was large to the east, and the other was a small room facing south. It was quite harmonious.
The layout of my home is almost the same, and the living room is not very large either. It is already filled with furniture. Although the walls are not decorated too much, they are very clean. It seems that someone is often doing housework.
Definitely, depending on the age of the floor, this room must be quite old.
"I didn't expect your uncle to be such a low-key person." Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh. Compared with Du Wanchun's big villa, this room is too small and too simple.
"Haha, he's always been like this. My grandfather bought him several houses a long time ago, but he just likes to live here, and he hasn't moved again for more than ten years." Du Rui mentioned his second child.
Uncle, although she is a little confused about what he did, she still admires him quite a lot. She also hopes to have this simple life, but she is reluctant to give up this luxurious life immediately. Only her uncle can do this.
Let’s live like one day for ten years.
"Come on, come on, I've prepared the food." An ordinary small round table was filled with more than a dozen dishes, and Du Wancheng was here to invite two people to come over for dinner.
Du Xinyue quickly took out the bowls and chopsticks and placed them on the table, but there was no one for Lu Chen. Lu Chen couldn't help but feel embarrassed for a while.
"Come on, you're welcome, just treat this place as your home." Du Wancheng frowned slightly and glanced at Du Xinyue beside him, and quickly sent Du Xinyue's bowls and chopsticks to Lu Chen, letting Lu Chen
There is a set of dishes and chopsticks.
"Dad, that's mine!" Du Xinyue hurriedly tried to grab the bowl and chopsticks in front of Lu Chen, but was not prepared to let Lu Chen take a bite.
"You kid, I'm a guest!" Du Wancheng hit Du Xinyue on the wrist, causing her hand to drop instantly.
"What kind of guest, I didn't see it at all." Du Xinyue's stubborn temper was rising, and she was unwilling to let Lu Chen eat in peace.
"Is your child really that disobedient?" Du Wancheng slapped Du Xinyue's palm hard, as if he was educating a child who has not yet grown up.
"Don't be offended. It's because of my lax upbringing. You can eat it and don't worry about her." Du Wancheng looked at Lu Chen apologetically, but he scolded his daughter. She looked like she valued Lu Chen very much.
"Yes, I don't have a tutor. You haven't given me a complete family." Du Xinyue lost her temper, slapped the table and started to mutter, "I won't eat this meal, you can eat it by yourself!"
Du Xinyue said angrily and ran into the small room and disappeared.
Du Wancheng's face stiffened, and then became darker and darker. He stood up as soon as he slapped the table, and the whole table began to tremble.
"By the way, why didn't you see auntie?" Lu Chen saw that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, and immediately prepared to change the topic from the entire awkward atmosphere.
Du Wancheng's face turned even darker and he glared at Lu Chen fiercely.
