Here, when Lu Jingli thought about Xiao Xixi coming over soon, and the thought of what if she saw something she shouldn't see, he suddenly became so worried that he didn't even have the mood to pick up girls. He carefully moved closer to his brother and tentatively asked, "Brother, what about sister-in-law? How about I find an excuse to ask her not to come?"
Lu Tingxiao's slender knuckles tapped the armrests regularly. Finally, he said, "She should be on her way by now. I'll send her a message and ask her to come to my place."
He couldn't take any risks in this matter.
After saying this, he stood up and seemed ready to leave.
Zhuang Ke'er only saw Lu Tingxiao and Lu Jingli whispering something to each other and then leaving. No matter how calm she was, she couldn't help but reveal a hint of disappointment and embarrassment. "Mr. Lu, are you leaving so soon? Don't you want to play for a while? Is there something urgent?"
Hearing this, everyone around pricked up their ears!
What? Lu Tingxiao is leaving
So soon? This... This hasn't even been five minutes, has it
Lu Jingli felt really embarrassed that his brother had to leave after only being here for five minutes. However, it was indeed his fault that he did not handle the matter well today!
"Hate it! Why is Brother Xiao leaving so soon? He must be annoyed by that Zhuang Ke'er!"
"That's probably true! Mr. Lu likes quietness the most. Who among us doesn't admire Mr. Lu? But none of us dared to disturb him, but she went up there and made people dislike her!"
"We don't even have the chance to watch from afar!"
"How annoying! Can you do whatever you want just because you have a good family background?"
…
Listening to the discussions around her, Zhuang Ke'er looked a little embarrassed. These damn women were talking nonsense. Lu Tingxiao didn't leave because he was annoyed with her!
The last time she saw him, she was stunned by his handsomeness. She had already decided on this man. Now that she finally got the chance to see him, how could she give up so easily!
She was the eldest daughter of the Zhuang family. Even if she was put together with the Lu family, no matter who it was, she would have to say that they were well matched. In the entire imperial capital, she dared to say that no one was more suitable for Lu Tingxiao than her.
Apart from Lu Tingxiao, she didn't like any other man!
From childhood to adulthood, she had never gotten what she wanted, and this time was no exception!
Moreover, there must be a destiny between them. She had just returned from abroad tonight and learned from a friend that Lu Jingli had also returned to China and was going to have a part. It was said that Lu Tingxiao would also come.
After arriving, she saw Lu Tingxiao as expected. Not only that, Lu Tingxiao, who always wore cool colors, wore a maroon suit today for the first time. It was exactly the same color as her skirt today, and they were a perfect match.
The moment she saw him, she was so excited that her heart melted. She was even more amazed than when she first saw him...
This man! She absolutely must get him!
Thinking of this, Zhuang Ke'er immediately regained her confidence. She stepped on her 12-centimeter high heels and chased after Lu Tingxiao with a swaying figure.
"Mr. Lu, please wait a moment... I... ah..."
Because the high heels Zhuang Keer was wearing today were too high, and the edge of the swimming pool was a little damp, she slipped as she walked quickly, and the next second, she lost her balance and was about to fall into the swimming pool next to her in an extremely embarrassing way...
At that moment, Zhuang Keer's face was filled with fear and despair. She seemed to have seen the eyes around her that were mocking and looking forward to her making a fool of herself...
No... Don't...
Just as Zhuang Ke'er trembled and closed her eyes, her face ashen, the next second, a black figure suddenly rushed over like lightning, and a slightly thin but steady and powerful arm firmly held her waist, and pulled her into his arms, turning her over half a circle with her, and successfully rescued her before she fell into the water...
Not far away, Lu Jingli stared blankly at the young "man" who looked like the hero in a romance novel, descending like a god and saving Zhuang Ke'er in an extremely handsome manner. The wine glass in his hand fell on the bar with a clang, "Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law?"
