Chapter 459 Betrothal Gift
Chapter 459 Betrothal Gift
The butler didn't dare to say a word in the front seat, and the driver was also a little passive.
Lu Shiyan remained calm on the surface, but he did not point out that Jiang Qingqiu's way of addressing him was wrong.
I don't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Under such circumstances, Nan Sheng was also stunned for a moment.
This name made Nan Sheng think of Song Xiao.
That uncomfortable feeling came over me.
It's only been such a short time, but everything has changed.
Nan Sheng's eyes suddenly felt sore, but under such circumstances, Nan Sheng did not say anything and remained very quiet.
Lu Shiyan responded calmly, "Hello, auntie."
"Okay, okay." Jiang Qingqiu didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
Only then did the housekeeper let the driver drive back to the Zhou family mansion.
On the way back to Zhou's house, Jiang Qingqiu grabbed Lu Shiyan and called him "Xiao Song".
Nan Sheng noticed it and glanced at Lu Shiyan out of the corner of her eye.
This is an unhappy emotion that one dares not express.
I can only suppress it all the way.
When Jiang Qingqiu called Lu Shiyan, he talked about everything that happened to Song Xiao before.
Lu Shiyan had to deal with it, after all, the person in front of him was Jiang Qingqiu, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Nan Sheng suddenly found it funny, but when she was about to laugh, she couldn't make it out loud.
In such a strange and tense atmosphere, the car stopped at the gate of Zhou's house.
The bodyguard opened the car door and Lu Shiyan got out first.
He was waiting by the side. Nan Sheng got out of the car, supporting Jiang Qingqiu.
Because of Nan Sheng's return, Jiang Qingqiu looked in good condition and was always smiling.
It was as if he was holding Nan Sheng's hand, wanting to say everything he hadn't had time to say in this life.
Nan Sheng was also very patient. Even if Jiang Qingqiu had repeated these words before, she would not remind him.
Just listening carefully.
"Mommy, you've been through a lot and even came to pick me up, so take a good rest now." Nan Sheng coaxed Jiang Qingqiu in a low voice.
Jiang Qingqiu was in poor health, and his fatigue was obvious.
It was just that in front of Nan Sheng, she kept holding on and was reluctant to rest.
"Zhenzhen..." Jiang Qingqiu called Nan Sheng's name.
Nan Sheng smiled calmly: "Mommy, I'm here. I'll be in the capital for the New Year, so you can see me every day."
"Okay, okay." Jiang Qingqiu finally felt relieved.
Just at this moment, Zhou Jingyan came back from outside.
The butler walked forward and took Zhou Jingyan's coat.
Zhou Jingyan and Lu Shiyan's eyes met in the air, but neither of them spoke.
Zhou Jingyan didn't have any resistance or anything like that towards Lu Shiyan, but he just seemed a little indifferent.
Nan Sheng didn't say anything, but looked at Jiang Qingqiu quietly.
"I'll go back with you." Nan Sheng responded.
"Okay." Jiang Qingqiu nodded.
Nan Sheng supported Jiang Qingqiu and walked towards her bedroom.
Zhou Jingyan and Lu Shiyan didn't say anything, just watched the mother and daughter enter the bedroom.
Zhou Jingyan's eyes fell on Lu Shiyan, but only for a moment.
He walked towards the study on the second floor.
Lu Shiyan followed calmly, with a folder in his hand.
The two remained silent until the study door closed.
Zhou Jingyan didn't say anything, just watched.
Lu Shiyan got straight to the point and said, "This is my betrothal gift to the Zhou family."
As soon as he finished speaking, the folder that was originally in Lu Shiyan's hand was placed in front of Zhou Jingyan.
Zhou Jingyan raised his eyebrows and then slowly opened the folder.
When Zhou Jingyan saw the contents of the document, he was really surprised.
This is the land owned by the Lu Group on the East Third Ring Road of the capital, which is priceless.
When Zhou Jingyan said it before, he didn't think Lu Shiyan gave it to him.
As a result, this person really gave what he said.
For a moment, Zhou Jingyan was unable to guess what Lu Shiyan was thinking.
He was wondering how much of Lu Shiyan's feelings for Nan Sheng were genuine and how much of them were premeditated.
"Mr. Lu really spared no expense to marry Nan Sheng." Zhou Jingyan said with a half-smile.
The document was closed and placed in front of him.
Zhou Jingyan did not take the initiative to express his thoughts on this matter.
It seemed like this attitude was just a joke on Lu Shiyan.
"Of course, I marry Nan Sheng to show my sincerity to the Zhou family." Lu Shiyan was frank.
Zhou Jingyan suddenly asked directly: "I want to know, if Nan Sheng is not a member of the Zhou family, then does Mr. Lu still have such sincerity?"
Lu Shiyan lowered his brows, but did not avoid Zhou Jingyan's question.
"If Nan Sheng isn't from the Zhou family, then she was raised by the Lu family. Although I don't need a dowry, I will ensure that Nan Sheng has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life."
Lu Shenxing said that reality is also direct.
This left Zhou Jingyan with no room for rebuttal.
"I want to know, if Mr. Lu marries Nan Sheng, can he guarantee Nan Sheng's safety?" Zhou Jingyan continued to ask calmly.
Now the Xu family is defeated, but Xu Qingqiu is still there.
They both knew this.
As long as Xu Qingqiu is there, the danger remains.
"Also, has Mr. Lu dealt with the Lu family's affairs?" Zhou Jingyan asked directly without any politeness.
Xu Qingqiu is a problem, and the Lu family is also a problem.
Lu Zhaoji is not at peace outside, at least now Lu Shiyan cannot really touch Lu Zhaoji.
This can be seen from Xu Qingqiu's incident.
So, this is also an uncertain factor.
What's more, the Lu family originally came to power by stepping on the blood of many people.
Not to mention the whole country, even in Haicheng, the Lu family has many enemies.
Xu Qingqiu is in the position of Mrs. Lu. Because of the relationship with the Xu family, not many people dare to touch Xu Qingqiu.
So the Xu family and the Lu family are a strong alliance.
The Zhou family does not need to rely on the Lu family at all.
Then after Nan Sheng came to power, it wasn’t just the Lu family that was ready to make a move.
I am afraid that these uncertainties lurking in the Zhou family will become rampant.
It’s like Zhou Zhiming is under control now, but he still exists.
For some things, it takes time to eradicate them completely.
It is impossible for Zhou Jingyan to say that he is not worried at all.
In fact, he knew very well in his heart that he was deeply opposed to this marriage.
But Nan Sheng didn't say anything, and Lu Shiyan's sincerity was there.
Zhou Jingyan didn't know what to say.
He could only make things difficult for Lu Shiyan here.
Lu Shiyan looked at Zhou Jingyan calmly and gave his answer: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, I won't let Nan Sheng be implicated in these matters."
"That's just what President Lu said." Zhou Jingyan reminded Lu Shiyan.
As Zhou Jingyan finished speaking, his fingers tapped a regular rhythm on the table.
For the time being, it is impossible to guess what Zhou Jingyan is thinking.
"Also, I want to ask Nan Sheng's opinion in front of Mr. Lu." Zhou Jingyan finished speaking.
Lu Shiyan stood there and did not object.
Zhou Jingyan made a phone call and asked the housekeeper to call Nan Sheng in.
Soon, there was a knock on the study door, and Nan Sheng's slender figure appeared in the study.
