“but …”
luo chenxi still felt that it was inappropriate.
mu yichen said,”actually, that old woman was right about one thing. you’re the adopted daughter of the lu family after all. you grew up in the lu family since you were young. if you really don’t give them a single cent, it’s inevitable that they will go out and ruin your reputation. even though you know how they treat you, outsiders don’t know and will inevitably slander you.”
” twenty million is just a small amount anyway. it’ll save us a lot of trouble to shut them up. “
mu yichen’s gaze deepened as he spoke.
what he didn’t say was that he didn’t plan to pay, but lu yajing had just mentioned four years ago, which made him alert.
even though he was completely unconcerned about what had happened in the past, luo chenxi’s refusal to marry him because of the incident that happened in the past must have been a serious matter.
he wouldn’t give lu yajing a chance to spread the word.
if the lu family kept their mouths shut after receiving the money, he didn’t mind helping them.
after all, he had heard that his mother-in-law still cared a lot about the lu family. he would just take it that he, as her son-in-law, was being filial.
however, if lu yajing was still greedy … he had other ways to make them shut up forever!
” but, mu yichen, based on my understanding of lu yajing, she won’t be so easily satisfied … ” luo chenxi still wanted to persuade him further.
the man’s finger pressed on her lips, stopping her.
“if you’re in the mood to talk about this, why don’t you explain to me … what kind of person is third young master xu? hmm?”
luo chenxi was stunned for a moment. you mean … third brother xu?”
isn’t this topic changing too quickly?
why did it suddenly jump to xu yongan?
mu yichen sneered. ” brother … xu san? she actually called him brother? is this considered childhood sweethearts?”
luo chenxi shuddered.
her strong desire to live forced her to explain immediately. ” hubby, you heard wrong. who called him brother? ” no, there was no such thing! i used to play with xu yongan when i was young, but childhood sweethearts? that didn’t exist! it’s not our tang tang and shaoxuan … ah, bah bah bah, pretend i didn’t say that …”
when she saw mu yichen’s expression turning darker by the second, luo chenxi immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing again.
an idea came to her. she suddenly straightened her back and hooked her arms around mu yichen’s neck. she took the initiative to lean toward him.
“honey, you’ve met xu yongan before. he was the man who sent me out with lu yajing when i was waiting for you at the lu family’s gate. you know that i only like handsome guys, not the kind that i like …”
mu yichen furrowed his brows ever so slightly as he recalled the scene at the time.
there was indeed a fly around his little woman!
however, he had seen it for himself the other day. the kid’s mouth hair had not even grown fully, and he looked like he was easy to bully. one look and he knew he was not competitive.
thinking of this, he was relieved.
however, his mouth refused to relax, and he snorted coldly, ” ” then if he’s handsome, you’ll take a fancy to him?! “
luo chenxi shook her head repeatedly. ” no, no, no. there’s no such thing! how could anyone be more handsome than you? it was impossible! it didn’t exist! in my eyes, my husband is the most handsome … mu yichen, what are you trying to do?”
“who would believe you? prove it to me!”
the little white rabbit was pressed down on the desk by the big bad wolf and was eaten clean.
it was only then that luo chenxi recalled that she had fallen into someone’s trap again!
