Chapter 264: Do You Think Lu Zhi Will Accept It If He Knows About This? (2)

Gu Zhanqing couldn’t care less about what she offered.

From start to finish, all he wanted was for Jiang Yining to obediently return home with him.

Unfortunately, Chen Kexin couldn’t see through his intentions.

“You keep your composure, don’t mess things up,” Gu Zhanqing suppressed his annoyance and disdain, saying, “Regarding the relationship between Yining and Lin Yan, I’ve already had someone collect evidence. In a few days, it will be delivered to you. By then, armed with witnesses and physical evidence, you can confront her. Will she still be able to deny it?”

“Mr. Gu, you’ve thought of everything. I’ll follow your lead.”

Chen Kexin quickly changed her attitude.

“Alright, just wait patiently. In these days, don’t stir up trouble.”

Gu Zhanqing cautioned her.

After a moment of hesitation, Chen Kexin said, “By the way, Mr. Gu, can I trouble you with one more thing? Old Madam Lu sent me overseas, and now there are many servants around me keeping an eye on me. I can’t return to the country. Could you…?”

If she couldn’t return, she naturally couldn’t point out Jiang Yining’s ulterior motives.

In the end, she had to ask him for help.

Gu Zhanqing was exasperated by her, “I will send someone to pick you up. Remember not to reveal this matter.”

“Don’t worry. It’s related to my happiness for the rest of my life, and I absolutely won’t leak a word.”

Chen Kexin reassured him multiple times.

Gu Zhanqing hung up the phone directly.

After hearing the abrupt ending on the other side, Chen Kexin pursed her lips and said, “Hmph, what an impolite person!”

Muttering under her breath, but her mood was soaring!

“Jiang Yining, oh, Jiang Yining…”

“This time, you absolutely won’t be able to escape!”

Ye Xiaoxi knew that Jiang Yining was going on her honeymoon and thoughtfully prepared a few items to help her relax, all intended to relieve fatigue. She had heard from her friends that honeymoons could be quite exhausting. Even the fittest person couldn’t endure playing around the clock.

In addition, she also specially asked her grandfather for a few thick and robust wild ginseng roots to help Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi replenish their energy.

When Jiang Yining saw the large bag of items Ye Xiaoxi had given her, she said, “We’re only going away for a few days. You don’t need to be so extravagant.”

It was almost like they were moving.

Besides, wasn’t it a waste to give them wild ginseng, such a potent tonic?

They wouldn’t actually need it.

“Just take them; they’re all from my heart,” Ye Xiaoxi insisted, helping her pack them into her suitcase. “Besides, the servants will handle your luggage, so it won’t tire you.”

Jiang Yining was speechless.

She realized that Ye Xiaoxi was becoming more and more motherly.

Lu Zhi noticed the items Ye Xiaoxi had given and a glint of hidden meaning passed through his eyes as he calmly said, “If you reject Xiaoxi’s goodwill, it will hurt her.”

“Exactly,” Ye Xiaoxi chimed in.

The two of them stood together on the same front, trying to persuade her.

Jiang Yining had no choice but to relent.

After they packed everything, the three of them planned to go out, have a meal together, and officially say their farewells.

They chose a high-end restaurant in the city center for their gathering. This restaurant was owned by the Yuan family and typically served upscale, state banquet-level dishes.

However, Old Master Yuan, knowing that Ye Xiaoxi liked hotpot, insisted the restaurant introduce authentic Sichuan hotpot just for their gathering.

Ye Xiaoxi brought them here to share the experience.

Jiang Yining teased, “Are you trying to show off how much your grandfather dotes on you?”

“Not at all,” Ye Xiaoxi said with a bright smile, denying it verbally but clearly reveling in the idea.

The three of them entered a private room, and the server handed them the menu.

After taking turns ordering dishes, Jiang Yining excused herself to use the restroom. Ye Xiaoxi wanted to have a private chat with her and followed her out.

In the restroom, Ye Xiaoxi linked her arm with Jiang Yining’s and mischievously said, “Yining, when you go on your honeymoon, be sure to take care of yourself. Don’t let anything unexpected happen. You’re still young, and being tied down by children will make you regret it.”

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Yining quickly blushed. “You don’t need to tell me these things.”

She and Lu Zhi would never have a baby, okay? They didn’t even have a proper honeymoon.

Did she look like the Virgin Mary? Could she get pregnant without a man?

“Come on, you’re already married. What’s with the shyness? If anyone should be shy, it should be me,” Ye Xiaoxi grumbled. “I’m telling you all this for your own good. Just remember what I said.”

Ye Xiaoxi knew that Jiang Yining had lost her mother a long time ago and didn’t have any close sisters around.

That was why she was acting like a motherly figure.

Most men wanted their wives to have children early, to keep their wives tied to them with children. Besides, Lu Zhi was getting older and was probably eager to have children sooner. During the honeymoon, he would likely be quite active.

She was genuinely concerned for Jiang Yining, which was why she said these things. When she saw Jiang Yining taking her words to heart, Ye Xiaoxi was satisfied.

Jiang Yining, hearing her rambling, felt her cheeks turn so hot they could have fried an egg. “Okay, I get it, please stop talking about it.”

“Good, that’s about right,” Ye Xiaoxi said, content that her advice was well-received.

The two of them finished freshening up and left the restroom. As they walked through the corridor, they overheard two affluent women talking in hushed tones.

“Have you heard? The old lady from the Lu family was kicked out.”

“Really? Hasn’t her old man always spoiled her? How could he bear to kick her out?”

“Then what else could it be? She brought this on herself. She looked down on the wealthy daughter of the Gu family in the capital city and allowed the former housekeeper’s daughter to act arrogantly. Little did she know, that woman had the audacity to sneak into the newlyweds’ bed on her grandson’s wedding night. Many guests saw it happen. It’s a blatant humiliation to the Gu family. Old Master Lu is furious and openly declares that he wants a divorce. It’s such a clear example of digging one’s own grave.”

“At her age, being expelled from her family home, she can forget about enjoying any family happiness from now on.”

“That’s right! She’s really embarrassed this time. She used to look down on us, and now, without the backing of the Lu family, she’s nothing! She’s not even worthy of shining our shoes!”

The two women burst into laughter.

Ye Xiaoxi furrowed her brows and turned to Jiang Yining. She said, “Don’t pay any attention to these kinds of people.”

Old Madam Lu was indeed detestable, but stooping to gossip and spreading rumors was equally despicable. Ye Xiaoxi couldn’t stand such people.

She tugged at Jiang Yining, wanting to leave immediately.

However, Jiang Yining chuckled lightly and said, “No need to rush. Let’s listen to what they’re saying..”
