Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love-Chapter 779 - 305.【Sad Fairy Tale】The One in Front is the Beloved (Part 4)_2
She nodded, "Mm, okay."
After Mr. and Mrs. Lu went out, Shen Weiyi took a step forward and walked into the dining room.
Lin Chu had her own manners and upbringing. Since Lu Zhengmao said to have her dine with Shen Weiyi, she wouldn’t start eating ahead of time, as it would seem very disrespectful.
She tilted her face up to greet Shen Weiyi, "Hi~"
Shen Weiyi just sat opposite Lin Chu, without giving any response.
The servants had already knowingly avoided the scene, leaving just the two of them in the dining room.
Lin Chu waited for quite a while, yet the person across from her showed no intention of picking up the chopsticks to eat, only looking at her expressionlessly, her features extremely mild.
She thought to herself, after all, the position she held now was snatched from Shen Weiyi’s hands. Even the most good-tempered person couldn’t withstand such a grievance.
So Lin Chu didn’t argue with her.
With Lu Zhengmao not at home, Lin Chu felt much more at ease; she smiled at Shen Weiyi, "So hungry, can I start eating?"
Indeed, the cool and haughty Shen Mingxing still ignored her.
Lin Chu was too lazy to continue asking, so she picked up the chopsticks and began to eat gracefully.
She tied her long hair for convenience while eating, revealing her slender swan neck.
Shen Weiyi clasped her hands tightly on her lap unconsciously, with fingertips digging deeply into the skin on the back of her hands, her voice cold and indifferent, "Lin Chu, are you trying to show off to me?"
Lin Chu snorted, swallowing the food in her mouth before taking a sip of honey tea.
Composedly, she retorted, "Do you think I need to?"
Her character was never the type to be the weak and bullied heroine in idol dramas. If she had to be put into a role, it should be the beautiful and wealthy female supporting role.
Born with a silver spoon, her future life required no worry on her part.
So many wealthy and handsome men circled around her, yet she stubbornly only wanted the male lead, occasionally trying to seduce him by undressing.
The only difference from most Mary Sue tropes in idol dramas was that this female supporting character succeeded in ascending the throne.
This must be the most infuriating part.
An unconcerned smile played on her face, "Although I don’t quite like you, I don’t dislike you either. Since we all live in this house, if we make our previous relationship too tense, everyone would be embarrassed, especially Mom. Being such a kind person, she’s unable to blame anyone, then at that time..."
Almost everyone in An City knew that Lu Zhengmao gave all his tenderness to his wife, even if Song Jingyuan was just going out for a walk, he would personally accompany her.
A tender yet strong man, envied by others.
If someone upset his wife, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to draw his gun and shoot that person.
Perhaps Lin Chu’s natural call of ’Mom’ unwittingly stimulated Shen Weiyi’s nerves, causing a fluctuation in her cold eyes.
The nail marks on the back of her hand grew deeper as if they would draw blood with a little more force, but she couldn’t feel any pain.
Her voice was extremely detached, "Lin Chu, you took what originally belonged to me, don’t you feel any pangs of conscience?"
The person who should have married Lu Huai’an was her.
Lin Chu didn’t feel angry either, she smiled, "If it were really yours, I wouldn’t have been able to take it."
Shen Weiyi also smiled, but it didn’t reach her eyes, "You’re still too young."
Lin Chu casually shrugged her shoulders.
Just three years older, how much richer could her life experience be? Relying on the advantage of age to start lecturing her?
While sipping soup, she made a listening gesture, "Mm-hmm?"
"A few days ago, there was a murder case in An City, where someone was kidnapped after work by a thug, had their kidney removed, then was stabbed over a dozen times and bled to death, but that kidney saved the criminal’s father’s life."
Shen Weiyi paused for a moment, her gaze extremely calm as she looked at Lin Chu.
"The victim’s life belonged to themselves yet was taken away by inhumane means by criminals."
The meaning of these words required no further explanation, Lin Chu understood.
Simply put, Lu Huai’an was as precious as life to Shen Weiyi, and Lin Chu used lowly means to steal her life.
Lin Chu had heard about that criminal case, where the organ-stealing murderer was eventually sentenced to death by the people’s court.
So, Shen Weiyi was openly warning Lin Chu that the outcome for a thief like her wouldn’t be good.
Lin Chu lost her appetite.
When she didn’t want to smile, even if someone tried to pull her lips up, she wouldn’t smile.
"You don’t need to tell me your touching and heartfelt love stories with Lu Huai’an. I have no time to listen and I don’t care. For the next ten years, twenty years... all the way until he dies, the space for spouse on his registration will only carry my name, Lin Chu."
Having said that, she got up, picked up her bag, and prepared to leave.
However, just as she took the first step, her phone rang.
Upon seeing the contact notation on the screen, Lin Chu’s mood suddenly improved, the corners of her lips unconsciously lifting.
She wasn’t bored or insecure enough to show off her relationship in front of Shen Weiyi.
She walked towards the door with her bag and only answered the call at the foyer, sweetly calling out, "Hubby~"
At the Mu Group, in the conference room.
The pen Lu Huai’an held in his hand suddenly fell onto the table, making an extremely jarring noise, drawing the gaze of all the senior executives in the meeting.
Several core veterans frowned, seeming displeased with his behavior.
Lu Huai’an remained composed, calmly walking out of the meeting room, and said blandly to the person on the other end of the phone, "There’s a document left in the study, bring it to me at the company."
Initially, Lin Chu thought that Lu Huai’an was calling to thoughtfully ask if she was awake, if she had eaten, or to express concern about whether she felt uncomfortable since last night he had been like a wild beast, almost costing her half a life.
This wasn’t Lin Chu being overly sentimental, just things a considerate husband should do.
In the end, she was mistaken again.
Drooping her head, she muttered, "I’m not your secretary."
