The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Jiang Xuxu couldn't see the situation downstairs, but she could clearly feel the awkwardness and silence in the air downstairs for a moment after Chu Beihe finished speaking.

But only for a moment.

Lu Xuexi changed her words without any hesitation, her tone remained as usual,

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chu, I just heard Xiao Su call you that, and I won't do it again."

Then he asked, "Mr. Chu, is Xuxu here with you?"

Chu Beihe only said, "I asked her to help with some things, and I will have someone send her back later."

When Lu Xuexi heard this, she suddenly showed just the right amount of curiosity and answered naturally,

"Mr. Chu asked Xuxu for help? Does Mr. Chu also believe in Feng Shui?"

Jiang Xuxu stood at the top of the stairs, wondering if Lu Xuexi was planning to chat until she came out?

If so, she really couldn't hide.

After all, the boss doesn’t like to socialize with others at first glance.

However, before she could go downstairs, she heard Chu Beihe speak again downstairs, but he did not answer the question from Lu Xuexi and simply said,

"If nothing happens to Miss Lu, you can go back first."

After that, he stood up without looking at Lu Xuexi's reaction.

"Jiang Xuxu is safe here with me. If Jiang Huai is worried, you can ask him to call me."

The implication is that Jiang Huai, his brother, didn't come to the door. It's not appropriate for you, a distant relative of the Jiang family, to come looking for someone.

Although Lu Xuexi had known for a long time that Chu Beihe was not easy to guide, she did not expect that this person was even more difficult to guide than before. At least in the past, the two families had met and had contact occasionally. He would not have said it so bluntly and took all her possessions right away. If you say it, it will be blocked...

Feeling depressed, Lu Xue still maintained a gentle and generous look on the face of the stream, and stood up.

"Don't get me wrong, my family is definitely not worried about you. I just came here to ask. Since you are here, I feel relieved, so I will go back first."

Lu Xuexi finished speaking politely and without any further entanglement, turned around and followed the housekeeper out of the villa gate.

When Chu Beihe saw the person leaving, he ignored him. He raised his legs and was about to go upstairs when he happened to see Jiang Xuxu at the corner of the stairs.

And he obviously stood there for a while.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked,

"Now that you're awake, why don't you go back with us?"

When Jiang Xuxu heard that his words did not mean to issue an order to expel guests, she felt relieved and did not hide anything. She just said,

"I don't want to go back with her."

Although she and Lu Xuexi have not had any head-on conflict since she returned to the Jiang family, Jiang Han, Jiang Cheng, and even Jiang Su in the early days were very critical of her. She did not believe that Lu Xuexi was not behind her back. of.

So now in front of Chu Beihe, Jiang Xuxu had no intention of hiding her bad relationship with Lu Xuexi.

Chu Beihe seemed to think there was nothing wrong with her attitude.

He nodded, "Then wait a little longer and eat something. I'll have someone take you back later."

Jiang Xuxu wanted to refuse, but she was really hungry, so she followed Chu Beihe to the restaurant.

There was a lot of food on the table, obviously it was dinner.

It's almost eight o'clock now, so it's not too late for dinner.

When Chu Beihe took Jiang Xuxu over, the sister-in-law in charge of the kitchen had quickly taken off the lid of the food on the table. The moment she took it off, there was steaming heat inside. It was obvious that it had been heated underneath.

Chu Beihe didn't explain why he asked her to heat the food, he just raised his hand and motioned for her to sit down and eat.

Even if there are dishes and chopsticks for guests at home, Chu Beihe doesn't like to leave people to eat at home.

Even Jiang Huai didn't eat at Chu's house a few times.

Others are even less likely.

So tonight when Chu Beihe specially asked the housekeeper to heat up the food for the others to come downstairs to eat together, both the housekeeper and the chef in charge of cooking were obviously a little surprised, but due to Chu Beihe's temperament, they did not dare to ask more questions.

Jiang Xuxu didn't know the meaning of this. Seeing that the food was ready, he sat down to eat without any courtesy.

This afternoon's tossing around had consumed a lot of spiritual energy, and she really needed to replenish some energy.

Even though he was so hungry, Jiang Xuxu had very good eating habits. He chewed slowly and carefully, without making any sound of bowls and chopsticks clashing in the middle.

Chu Beihe, who also ate quietly, said he was a little satisfied.

A big part of the reason why he doesn't like to eat with others is because he doesn't like people making noises to disturb him while eating.

Even if he attends a dinner party, he only eats and doesn't talk about anything.

After all, in his opinion, talking about things must be the occasion for talking about things.

It was a quiet and peaceful meal.

It wasn't until Jiang Xuxu finished eating and thanked Chu Beihe that Jiang Xuxu returned to Jiang's house under the personal escort of the housekeeper.

When the housekeeper came back from Jiang's house, he saw Chu Beihe sitting in the living room watching the news. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask,

"Master, why don't you take Miss Jiang home in person?"

The two families are not far apart. After dinner, we walked back with someone. There were various decorative lights on the road. How romantic.

But Chu Beihe obviously didn't get the butler's point. He turned his head when he heard this, "Did Jiang Xuxu tell you something?"

"..." The housekeeper said helplessly, "No, Miss Jiang is quiet and well-behaved. She even said thank you to me when I left."

When Chu Beihe heard the butler's comments about her, the tips of his ears twitched slightly. When he looked at the butler, his black eyes were filled with a hint of a smile.

After a long while, he just said:

"You may have read it wrong."

That man is not very well-behaved.

He just looks good.

Thinking of Jiang Xuxu's sharp and serious look when facing those evil objects, Chu Beihe felt that the butler's comments were full of humor.

Without further discussion on this topic, Chu Beihe got up and went upstairs.

Just returning to the study, looking at the study that was unchanged from the day, I still thought of her eyes that were obviously shining when she talked about the spiritual energy that he had sucked away and tempered.

By some strange coincidence, he took out his cell phone and sent her a message.

……

On the other side, Jiang Xuxu had just entered the door when he saw Lu Xuexi coming over, still looking gentle and concerned.

"Xuxu, you're back. I just went to Chu's house to look for you, but I didn't see anyone. I thought you had gone somewhere."

"Yeah." Jiang Xuxu responded vaguely, not intending to talk to her.

Before, Lu Xuexi smiled and let her go when she didn't talk to her, but today she pretended not to see the perfunctory look on Jiang Xuxu's face, and asked herself,

"I didn't believe it when Brother Han told me, Xuxu, when did you become so familiar with Brother Beihe?"

The word "ye" sounds very subtle, and coupled with the name "Brother Beihe", people who don't know it would think that she and Chu Beihe are very familiar.

If Jiang Xuxu hadn't heard with her own ears that Chu Beihe asked her to call him Mr. Chu, she would probably have thought that the two were familiar with each other at this moment.

What Jiang Xuxu didn't expect was that Chu Beihe had just corrected her title. She changed it in front of Chu Beihe, but she continued to go her own way in private.

Boss, do you know what you are called before and after?

Jiang Xuxu didn't say anything, but Lu Xuexi continued,

"But Xuxu, although the Chu family and our family have a good relationship, Brother Beihe is a boy after all. It's not good for you, a girl, to stay so late at someone else's house."

With a somewhat persuasive tone, Jiang Han and other Jiang family members at the other end of the living room, who poked their heads to listen to the conversation, had subtle disapproval on their faces.

Jiang Xuxu's foot that was about to step out suddenly stopped.

I thought to myself, why are there always people who insist on coming over to say specious things to disgust people even though others clearly don’t want to talk to her anymore?

Jiang Xuxu looked at Lu Xuexi, without much emotion on her face. She just looked at her quietly and asked unhurriedly,

"Just now at Chu's house, Mr. Chu clearly told you to call him Mr. Chu. You promised well at the time. Why are you calling me Shangge again behind your back? Does Mr. Chu know that you are like this?"
