Was Lu Bei Chuan bringing her here to explain and clarify that he and Ming Xiyu were innocent?
Why did everything in black, white, and gray seem to look greener and greener in An Xia’s eyes?
His posture of clarification was too much…
Hearing the sound of the door opening downstairs, Ming Xiyu hurriedly trotted out from the inner room. Seeing Lu Bei Chuan, she subconsciously wanted to throw herself into his arms.
But after making eye contact with An Xia, who was standing behind Lu Bei Chuan, Ming Xiyu stopped in time, but she didn’t steady herself and almost stumbled. Lu Bei Chuan supported her in time, avoiding an injury.
“I told you that you can’t be too anxious with your current situation, you have to be careful.” Lu Bei Chuan instructed helplessly and maturely.
It seemed that this situation had already happened countless times.
Or rather, they had always been so intimate and harmonious, their state was like that of a newlywed couple who were still passionately in love after many years. So they forgot to restrain themselves when they met, and they seemed so warm without any deliberate performance.
An Xia stood aside, looking a little lonely as she gathered her coat. She was just a passerby who was completely ignored.
Looking at this scene, the loneliness and sadness in An Xia’s heart became less and less, and fainter and fainter.
What she used to care about very much was now not caring at all, and it was all weakening.
It was good that Lu Bei Chuan was like this, the more ruthless and heartless he was, the more she could give up completely and not take the humble road back.
Ming Xiyu held Lu Bei Chuan’s hand, and most of her body was leaning on him. The smile on her face was shy and sweet.
“I know, but I can’t help it when I see you.”
Lu Bei Chuan frowned slightly at Ming Xiyu’s coquettish words. He raised his eyes and subconsciously looked at An Xia, but the latter was fiddling with the buttons on her sleeves, not caring about the situation here at all.
Her appearance of not being involved seemed to indicate that she didn’t care about the scene here at all.
Lu Bei Chuan’s face darkened a little, and he supported Ming Xiyu’s hand and completely propped her up. In Ming Xiyu’s slightly dazed gaze, he took a step back, maintaining a certain distance.
“An Xia said that she hasn’t seen you for a long time, so today she asked me to bring her to see you.” Lu Bei Chuan said.
An Xia: “…?”
When did she say such nonsense?
Wasn’t it he who forcibly abducted her?
He was having an affair and meeting a mistress, and he still wanted her, the legal wife, to help cover it up.
An Xia rolled her eyes.
Lu Bei Chuan was really becoming more and more of a jerk.
An Xia’s pink lips twitched, and she was about to expose Lu Bei Chuan mercilessly, but when she raised her eyes, she met Ming Xiyu’s slightly probing eyes.
They were urgent and sharp, as if she was the real wife.
Although An Xia had known Ming Xiyu since she was a child, the two had always been at odds.
An Xia knew Ming Xiyu’s hypocrisy, but she had Lu Bei Chuan’s love, so An Xia didn’t dare to say or resist anything in her early years.
Even if she had been bullied by Ming Xiyu many times in the open and in the dark, she didn’t dare to vent or speak out, and could only endure it silently.
But today was different from the past.
Now she was Lu Bei Chuan’s legal wife. Even if everyone thought that she had obtained this position by unclean means, she was still sitting firmly in this position.
She was Lu Bei Chuan’s legal wife on the marriage certificate.
Could she still be bullied by a mistress?
Moreover, she hadn’t avenged Professor Song’s revenge yet.
An Xia received Song Jin Yi’s email the day before yesterday afternoon.
It was probably because his wife’s condition had improved that he had the energy to pay attention to those trivial matters.
After this series of tossing and inexplicable slander and cyber violence, his state of mind had undergone a completely different change.
He didn’t care about many things from the past and was forced to put down those high and mighty airs.
He sent an email saying that he sincerely valued An Xia’s ability. If he could be vindicated in the future, clear the unwarranted stigma on his body, and his wife could regain her health, then he could have the energy to take back An Xia as a student.
This could be regarded as Song Jin Yi’s recognition of her.
Although she didn’t know if that day would come, An Xia had already regarded Song Jin Yi as her master in her heart.
Even if there couldn’t be a formal day of apprenticeship in the future, An Xia wouldn’t change her current thoughts.
Based on this alone, An Xia couldn’t let Ming Xiyu have a good time now.
An Xia pursed her lips and smiled slightly, took the initiative to take Lu Bei Chuan’s arm, and leaned into Lu Bei Chuan’s arms, imitating Ming Xiyu’s coquettish and shy appearance just now.
“Sister Xiyu, I haven’t seen you for so many years, Bei Chuan and I miss you very much. That’s why, as soon as you came back, I asked Bei Chuan to come and see you more often. I had to take care of Grandma and Jing Yang some time ago, so I didn’t have time. I came over as soon as I had time today.”
An Xia had been trained by Song Lan Zhi over the years, and she had already developed the ability to switch to the dignified and generous posture of a big wife in formal occasions.
She was naturally weak and lacked momentum. She was always timid and a little socially awkward when she met strangers.
In order to become the posture and momentum that Song Lan Zhi thought a Lu family’s young mistress should have, she had suffered a lot in these three years.
It was just that Lu Bei Chuan had been tight-lipped and kept their marital status a secret for these three years, so these skills that she had trained had never been used. She thought that her efforts over the years would be in vain, but she didn’t expect that they could be used today.
And it was to anger Lu Bei Chuan’s sweetheart.
Thinking of this, An Xia straightened her back even more.
As she spoke, An Xia looked around the furnishings in the room and frowned.
“Bei Chuan is still a straight man, and the arrangement here is not intimate enough. But I can’t blame him, I’ve been in charge of the inside and he’s been in charge of the outside all these years. He’s relieved to leave these things to me to take care of, so you’ve still been neglected here. But don’t worry, I’ll have Xiao Ming come over later to redecorate it for you.”
An Xia’s arrangements were well-planned and orderly, truly a mistress who managed all the affairs of the family very well.
Lu Bei Chuan looked down at her hand holding his arm, raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curved unconsciously.
It felt like they had returned to the time before they had quarreled.
At that time, An Xia didn’t have thorns all over her body, and would only call him (gege) all the time. When she was naughty, she would call his name directly, word by word, deliberately making people angry.
After running and chasing, she would be caught and have her face pinched, and then she would immediately surrender softly and call him Bei Chuan Older brother (gege).
It was clear that these days didn’t seem to have passed for long, but why were they so nostalgic?
Ming Xiyu’s face stiffened.
She was a woman, so how could she not hear the tit-for-tat in An Xia’s words? She subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Lu Bei Chuan, but found that his eyes were only on An Xia at this time.
Ming Xiyu’s hands hanging by her sides clenched tightly into fists, her jaw tightened involuntarily, her blue veins were exposed, and her pupils trembled.
