Xia Ruoxin let other people appreciate her face generously. Her face was very swollen, and the five-finger mark was still on top.
As for Xia Mingzheng, he seemed to have a pretty decent life, and he seemed delighted. Perhaps it was because someone was going to be his son-in-law again so in the entire Xia household, Xia Mingzheng was the true fox; and he was a shameless one.
Her gaze only stopped on Shen Yijun for one second before it moved on. As for other people, they did not matter to her.
Xia Yixuan had wandered around outside for half a day before she dared to come back. Actually, she felt that she was thinking too much. So what if she was from the Lu family? They could not kill her, right? It was just a slap, and it was not like she killed her or disfigured her.
When she reached home, she felt for her keys in her bag; but she could not find it after flipping through for quite some time.
Then, she remembered that she kind of left the house in a hurry so she left the keys in the room. She closed her bag and pressed on the doorbell.
Not long later, the nanny came to answer the door.
“Missy?” Once the nanny saw Xia Yixuan, she hurriedly used her body to block her in case the people inside saw her. Just now, Sir had secretly told her a few times that if she saw Missy, she could not let her in first and ask her to hide outside for a few days. No matter how hot-tempered the Lu family was, their anger should subside after a few days.
They really had no reason to let the Lu family unleash their temper when they were boiling with rage even though Xia Yixuan did hit Lu Xiaohua.
The nanny kept signaling to Xia Yixuan with her eyes, but Xia Yixuan was in a very bad mood and wanted to squeeze inside directly.
“Why are you blocking me? I want to go in.”
“Missy, you can’t go in.” The nanny was so anxious until she broke out in a cold sweat.
“This is my house. Why can’t I go in?” Xia Yixuan directly used her bag and hit the nanny. The nanny was pretty wronged, and she kept moving backward because of Xia Yixuan’s bad temper.
“Missy, you really can’t go in.”
“Why can’t I go in?” Before Xia Yixuan finished her sentence, an unfamiliar voice interrupted.
“Yeah. I also want to know why she can’t enter.”
The nanny froze there, and so did Xia Yixuan.
“Lu… Lu Jinrong?” No matter how blind Xia Yixuan was, she would know who the person inside was. This person had the same reputation as Chu Lui. Even though the Xia household did not have direct business dealings with the Lu family, the people from the Xia household had attended many parties and gatherings. Lu Jinrong’s face might be hard to differentiate between a male and a female, but it was very easily recognizable. Once someone saw him once, they would never forget his face.
“Mm, it’s me.” Lu Jinrong leaned against a wall, and the seemingly smiling face made Xia Yixuan have the urge to run away. However, she was already at her house entrance, and it was too late to run.
Harshly, she glared at the helper at home. How ignorant as she did not even tell her that this person came. The helper was even more wronged. She did say previously, but Missy did not listen and wanted to enter without a doubt. Now that she had been caught, she blamed her instead.
Unwillingly, Xia Yixuan walked in. In the end, when she saw the faces of the people sitting on the couch and Xia Ruoxin’s extremely uneven swollen face, her heart started beating rapidly.
Xia Ruoxin smiled at her. As for what the smile meant, Xia Yixuan was not dumb or stupid so she should understand.
Xia Mingzheng was having a huge headache. It was originally an incident between two people, but now that the entire Lu family came over in such an aggressive and forceful manner, it would not be easy to solve the problem.
“Yixuan, hurry and apologize to Ms. Lu.”
Xia Mingzheng pulled a long face and scolded Xia Yixuan, but it was a pity that Xia Yixuan did not know his good intentions. Once she heard that she had to apologize to that woman, it was even more painful than killing her. No matter what, she would not apologize.
“Yixuan!” Xia Mingzheng boomed and warned his daughter.
If it was anyone else, their dispute would have mediated if they met with something like this, but it was a pity that the Lu family would not do so. The Lu family ate anything, but they would not scrimp on apologies.
Xia Yixuan’s temper acted up and wanted to head upstairs, but—piak! Lu Ke’en slammed the table.
This shocked everyone present.
“Xia Mingzheng, how do you teach your daughter? Your Xia household is considered to be a prominent family, but why did you bring up such an ill-mannered child?”
Xia Mingzheng’s entire face was burning up. Xia Yixuan had never been lectured by someone in this way before. Right there and then, she was overwhelmed by anger and just scolded back without caring who Lu Ke’en was.
“Stupid old man, when is it your turn to care about my—Xia Yixuan’s—things? You should go, control your daughter, and stop her from seducing someone else’s fiance.”
Lu Ke’en was taken aback. No one had pointed at his nose and scolded him in such an awful manner in a long time. It was lucky that he had not given her a slap.
Also, who was someone else’s fiance?
Jian Qingying held Xia Ruoxin’s hand in worry.
“Mom, she’s talking about our CEO. I don’t have anything to do with him. She’s just too suspicious.” Xia Ruoxin’s eyes were clear, and she was not lying. She had nothing to do with Chu Lui from the start, and of course, she did not want to have anything to do with him.
Then, Lu Jinrong chuckled. “I didn’t know Chu Lui became the Xia household’s son-in-law. Should I call him over and ask him to explain?” As he said, he took out his phone and was prepared to call Chu Lui.
“Don’t.” Xia Mingzheng hurriedly stopped him and explained that it was all a misunderstanding. If not, how was he going to explain their situation with the Chu family when they did not even agree on anything?
He had already lost face to the Lu family. If this continued, he would have to lose face twice as he would lose face to the Chu family as well. Also, Chu Lui really did not agree about their marriage. He was afraid that if Chu Lui really came and said that the Xia household had nothing to do with them, they would really have no relations in the future.
“Yixuan, hurry and apologize to Ms. Lu.” There were no signs of joking in Xia Mingzheng’s voice. This apology was necessary, and she had to do it until the Lu family forgave her.
Xia Yixuan was frightened until she almost jumped up in fear. She bit her red lips as she knew what were the pros and cons of the situation.
“Sorry.” She grunted unwillingly. It was not only soft, but the reluctance to admit her wrong was written all over her face, which made people uncomfortable.
