On the other side.
Jiang Yining returned home and found that the entire villa was brightly lit.
She quietly sneaked to the living room entrance and took a glance inside.
Sure enough, she found Lu Zhi sitting on the sofa with a dark expression. She took a whiff of her own scent.
She realized that the smell of alcohol was still very obvious.
She took out the perfume she bought on the way and sprayed it on herself.
She waited until she was sure the smell of the alcohol couldn’t be detected.
Only then did she walk in.
“Didn’t 1 tell you that 1 want to have a gathering with my classmates? Why are you still waiting for me?” Jiang Yining spoke naturally as she walked towards the stairs, trying to pass off the situation.
However, Lu Zhi stepped forward and blocked her way.
“I called you, why didn’t you pick up?”
“My phone ran out of battery.”
Jiang Yining took out her phone and pressed a few buttons to show him.
Indeed, the screen wasn’t lighting up.
Lu Zhi stared at her for a few seconds and opened his thin lips slightly. Just as he was about to let her off the hook, he caught a faint fragrance and the smell of alcohol.
“You’ve been drinking?”
“No.” Jiang Yining was shocked. Did he have a dog’s nose? She had only drunk a little red wine, and the alcohol had almost evaporated after walking all the way. She had even specially sprayed perfume just now, and he could still smell it?
“No?” Lu Zhi didn’t believe her. He lowered his head, leaned closer to her, and sniffed her.
Jiang Yining froze.
His body and aura completely enveloped her.
Every cell in her body tensed up.
“Don’t you usually not wear perfume? Why did you suddenly spray some today?” Lu Zhi approached her face and asked.
“1 didn’t put on any perfume. It probably got me on during the gathering.” Jiang Yining smiled.” If you smell alcohol, it’s likely from there too.”
She thought, “This explanation should work, right?”
Jiang Yining secretly praised herself for being clever.
Lu Zhi’s gaze was deep as he said, “In the future, you must pick up my calls when you attend gatherings so late. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even know if something happened to you.”
“Yes.” When Jiang Yining heard his words, she understood that she had successfully fooled him. She breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you for your concern.”
After two seconds, she said, “By the way, 1 persuaded Old Madam to go home today. We have to prepare the anniversary gifts for the two elders tomorrow.”
“There’s no need to prepare. It’s fine as long as we are present.” Lu Zhi had already received a call from his grandfather and knew that she had persuaded his grandmother to return home.
This girl was quite capable.
Even with the strained relationship with his grandmother, she managed to persuade her.
“Really?”
Jiang Yining felt that it would be rude not to prepare a gift.
“Yes, Grandpa said that he had already prepared a gift for her when she returned. There’s no need to spend any more money.”
Lu Zhi said calmly.
Jiang Yining smiled and nodded.
“Alright, then I’ll go back first.”
“Yes.”
Watching her go upstairs, Lu Zhi said to the housekeeper, “Prepare some sobering soup and send it to Yining.”
She drank alcohol and even put on perfume.
How could he not smell it?
He just didn’t want to expose this little trickster.
The housekeeper was slightly surprised, but he still nodded and said, “Yes, sir.”
The next day.
Jiang Yining woke up early and was awakened by Ye Xiaoxi’s phone call.
On the other end of the line, Ye Xiaoxi cried and wailed, “Yining, I’ll never drink again in my life! If I drink again, 1’11 cut off my head and kick it like a ball!” “What foolish thing did you do?” Jiang Yining asked sleepily.
Ye Xiaoxi wanted to bang her head against the wall.
What else could she do?
Last night, she vomited all over her uncle and even saw his naked upper body!
What was even more embarrassing was…
She passed out!
Ye Xiaoxi wished she could just die on the spot so that she wouldn’t have to face Yuan Xudong.
After listening to her stumbling through the whole story, Jiang Yining cynically mocked her, “I didn’t expect you to have such bad taste in alcohol.”
“You’re still laughing at me?”
Ye Xiaoxi was embarrassed and furious.
“I’m not laughing at you. I just don’t think it’s a big deal. He’s your biological uncle. When he sees you embarrass yourself, he’ll laugh at you for two days and forget about it. It’s not like he’ll remember this forever.”
Jiang Yining said calmly.
“Hmph, stinky Yining, it didn’t happen to you, so of course you can say that it’s fine.” After scolding her, Ye Xiaoxi muttered, “I’ll move out and live somewhere else for a few days.”
“If you move out, I’m afraid not only Yuan Xudong will know about this. Your whole family will know.” Knowing how much Old Master Yuan favored her, how could he bear for her to leave the Yuan family?
If she inexplicably moved out, they would surely investigate the reason.
At that time, wouldn’t the Yuan family be alarmed?
Ye Xiaoxi was speechless.
Jiang Yining said, “Just stay put and behave yourself.”
“Well, that’s the only way.” Ye Xiaoxi agreed dejectedly, then added, “Anyway, he’s been entangled by Elizabeth lately and doesn’t have time for me.”
“What’s going on between your uncle and Miss Elizabeth?”
Jiang Yining was afraid that if she continued to talk about her embarrassing matters would upset her more.
So, she smoothly changed the topic.
As expected, Ye Xiaoxi was excited. She smiled and said, “What else can it be? Elizabeth has taken a fancy to him.”
“Didn’t she dislike your uncle?”
Jiang Yining had met Elizabeth a few times and felt that she was very arrogant and looked down on the Yuan family.
Any discerning person could tell how much Old Master Yuan doted on Ye Xiaoxi. If Elizabeth really respected the Yuan family and held them in high regard, would she have mocked Ye Xiaoxi repeatedly?
Of course not.
She dared to make things difficult for Xiaoxi because she believed she could take advantage of the Yuan family and wouldn’t face any consequences.
Such a person actually likes Yuan Xudong?
It was really strange.
Ye Xiaoxi chuckled and said, “She didn’t like him in the past, but now she likes him a lot. When you and Ah Zhi went to Sweden for your honeymoon, my grandfather and Lady Elizabeth specially arranged for them to go on a lantern-viewing night tour for the sake of her relationship with my uncles. Who knew that Elizabeth would get lost in a fit of anger and end up stranded alone in the forest. The rest of us went down to search, and, in the end, my uncle found her and carried her back home.”
Women were easily moved.
Especially when they are injured and frightened.
After that night, Elizabeth-Qianqian’s attitude towards Yuan Xudong changed 180 degrees.
She tried to find opportunities to be alone with him every day.
Unfortunately, though she was interested, he was indifferent.
Yuan Xudong always avoided her.
For this reason, Old Master Yuan had talked to Yuan Xudong countless times..
