Chapter 270: Heartless Person
Lu Sheng looked at the scene in front of her in shock.
No wonder Fu Sisi and Fu Yiyi did not have a good relations.h.i.+p. So they were really not biological sisters.
Fu Yiyi could neither stay nor leave. She could only look at Fu Lei pleadingly.
Unexpectedly, Fu Lei was so embarra.s.sed by Fu Sisi that he could not bring himself to say anything.
He looked at Lu Sheng and said in a deep voice, “Miss Lu, I’ve embarra.s.sed myself. I still have some matters to attend to, so I won’t stay for dinner.”
Then, he instructed Matriarch Fu and Chu Sihan to take good care of Lu Sheng and strode away without looking at Fu Yiyi.
Fu Yiyi pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before walking out of the hall.
Matriarch Fu sighed deeply and hurriedly kept the prayer beads in her hand, handing them to the nanny behind her.
During dinner, Matriarch Fu got someone to send food to various parties. She accompanied Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan to eat.
Because of what happened just now, the three of them felt that the food was a bit tasteless.
After dinner, the duo chatted with Matriarch Fu for a while before leaving.
Before leaving, Matriarch Fu returned Lu Sheng’s thank-you gift. It was an expensive agate jade bracelet.
Lu Sheng wanted to refuse, but Chu Sihan said, “You can’t refuse an elder’s gift.” She had no choice but to accept it.
“Where are we going?”
After leaving the Prime Minister’s Mansion, Lu Sheng realized that the carriage was not going back to the inn, but in the opposite direction.
“I’m not going back to the inn tonight.”
Chu Sihan leaned lazily against the carriage and stared at her with his dark eyes.
“Not going back to the inn? Where are we going then?”
The oil lamp in the carriage was very bright, and Chu Sihan could clearly see the doubt in Lu Sheng’s eyes.
He reached out and pulled her over. Caressing her smooth long hair, he said softly, “Don’t worry, I can’t bear to sell you.”
“Say what?”
Lu Sheng pushed him away and rolled her eyes at him.
A deep laughter echoed in the carriage. Chu Yun, who was driving, turned his head and was slightly stunned when he saw the curtain. Then, he laughed silently.
He realized that ever since the Lord met Miss Lu, his personality was not as gloomy as before.
Recalling what had happened tonight, Lu Sheng suddenly narrowed her eyes. She looked at Chu Sihan and said with certainty, “Lord, that Miss Fu Yiyi likes you.”
Other than that, she could not think of another reason.
“So what? She likes me, so I have to like her?”
He leaned closer to her again and said in a low voice, “I only care about your thoughts.”
“Me?”
Lu Sheng looked at him, her long and slightly curled eyelashes fluttering slightly. She asked suspiciously, “What thoughts can I have?”
Chu Sihan frowned and said unhappily, “Don’t you have thoughts about me?”
“No.”
She crossed her arms over her chest, raised her chin, and shook her head. She said proudly, “I only have thoughts about money.”
Now that she had achieved her goal of becoming the richest person in Liu Yue Village, she was going to become the richest person in Huang Yang Town.
Although it was a bit difficult with the Chu Mansion around, one still had to have dreams. What if they were realized?
“Sigh—”
Chu Sihan sat up straight and sighed dejectedly.
“I’m such a failure. I gave my heart and my first kiss to you, but you only have money in your heart.”
“Pfft—”
Lu Sheng could not help but burst into laughter. “Lord, your words are such a failure.”
“You’re still laughing.” Chu Sihan snorted and complained softly, “You heartless person.”
“Pfft—”
Lu Sheng felt that Chu Sihan was exceptionally cute today.
Chu Yun, who was outside, staggered and almost fell off the carriage.
Lord, what happened to your dignity?
