Seeing Shen Youran, Lu Xi frowned instinctively.

Although Shen Youran had helped her before, she felt a little uncomfortable because Shen Youran liked Fu Nanzhou and appeared at the door of her and Fu Nanzhou's home together.

And the social engagement Fu Nanzhou was talking about is attending a banquet with Shen Youran?

Yes, at occasions like banquets, those who attend are definitely important figures. It is more appropriate to bring a rich lady like Shen Youran who is famous and elegant than an ordinary person like her.

When this thought came to mind, Lu Xi felt even more uncomfortable.

Fu Nanzhou did not delve into Shen Youran's words. All his attention was on Lu Xi. Her calf was scratched and needed to be treated first.

"Ding Yu, send Miss Shen back." Fu Nanzhou ordered.

Ding Yu nodded, "Okay, Mr. Fu."

Shen Youran was startled, then quickly smiled: "Nanzhou, don't worry about me, I can just take a taxi myself. I don't know if Lu Xi needs to see a doctor for her injuries, and you've been drinking, so it's better if Ding Zhu stays."

Fu Nanzhou frowned and looked over, "It's not easy to call a taxi here."

"Then I'll ask the driver to pick me up. You go in first." Shen Youran said casually and immediately called home.

She called her mother Wei Yutong's number, "Mom, please ask the driver to pick me up. I'm at Longhu Villa in Nanzhou."

Wei Yutong frowned, her tone full of disapproval, "Why are you here in Nanzhou? Ranran, mom told you that Nanzhou is married, so you have to keep your distance. You are the little princess that your father and I raised with our hands, you deserve better treatment, you can't be a mistress."

Shen Youran was amused. "Mom, what are you talking about? Don't worry, I know what I am doing. I was attending a banquet with Nanzhou tonight, and Lu Xi happened to be kidnapped. I was very worried about Lu Xi, so I came here with her."

Shen Youran mentioned attending the banquet together again, this time for Lu Xi to hear and deepen her impression.

The reason why he mentioned Lu Xi's kidnapping was to make his mother worry.

"What did you say? Kidnapping?!" Wei Yutong was so frightened that she almost lost her soul, and her voice suddenly became very high.

Shen Youran quickly comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, she's fine now. She must have been frightened. She's in Nanzhou's arms."

"Okay, okay, I got it. Wait there, I'll pick you up right away!"

Shen Youran looked at the phone that was hung up by her mother, and a hint of sarcasm flashed across the corners of her mouth.

The mother didn't come to pick her up. She was worried about Lu Xi and was anxious to come and see how Lu Xi was doing.

Is this the power of blood? Even though DNA showed that Lu Xi was not Jiuer, her mother still showed unusual concern.

This shows that her move was correct. If she continued to secretly prevent Lu Xi from recognizing her parents, they would definitely suspect her.

That was not the result she wanted!

Retracting his thoughts, Shen Youran walked a few steps closer to Fu Nanzhou and said with a smile: "Nanzhou, take Lu Xi in first, my mother will come to pick me up soon."

Fu Nanzhou frowned slightly. Wei Yutong was coming over, so how could he let Shen Youran wait outside like this? It was too rude.

He lowered his head slightly and looked at Lu Xi, asking with his eyes what Lu Xi meant. After all, she was the mistress of this family.

Lu Xi said softly: "Miss Shen, go in and wait. There are a lot of mosquitoes at night."

Shen Youran did not hesitate, "Then I'll bother you."

The three of them entered the villa together. Ding Yu stayed in the car and quickly sent a video to Fang Min to share some gossip.

Fang Min was applying a facial mask. Upon hearing this, she immediately sat up and clicked her tongue twice, "This Miss Shen is really good."

Ding Yu raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

Fang Min laughed at him, "Think about it, Shen Youran didn't let you send her off but asked her family to pick her up. She didn't call the driver or the maid directly, but called her mother instead.

"Knowing that her mother had been there, did President Fu let Shen Youran stand at the door of the villa? If I remember correctly, President Fu's villa should have been visited by no other woman except our young lady and President Fu's mother, right?"

Fang Min liked to call Lu Xi "Little Madam" because the girl was too young and she felt that calling her "Madam" made her sound old.

"There is also Mr. Fu's niece." Ding Yu reminded.

Fang Min nodded. "My niece is like Mr. Fu's mother. They are both relatives, but Shen Youran is the first person of the opposite sex to enter our house."

Ding Yu didn't understand. "So what if she married Mr. Fu? Mr. Fu is married, and his wife is here too."

"Nothing. But it's a step closer to Mr. Fu. The distance between a man and a woman is getting closer step by step."

Ding Yu was confused. "Isn't the distance between a man and a woman a negative distance?"

What greeted Ding Yu was a hung-up video. Fang Min on the other end was so angry that she even tore off her facial mask.

God damn negative distance, can’t you be a little more romantic when your mind is only thinking about the bed?

**

Longhu Villa.

It was the first time that Shen Youran entered Fu Nanzhou's villa, so it was impossible for her to be calm.

But when she saw the clean and tidy living room, she felt relieved.

There weren't many traces of Lu Xi here. There were no wedding photos in the living room, nor were there flowers and plants that girls liked, nor were there any pretty little ornaments.

This proves that Lu Xi has not yet completely integrated into Fu Nanzhou's life, and they are not yet inseparable.

"Ms. Shen, please sit down. I'll pour you some water."

Just as Lu Xi was about to move, Fu Nanzhou held her down and said, "There will be wine and drinks at the banquet. Let me see your injury first."

"Yeah Lu Xi, don't worry about me, I'll just walk around and take a look around your home."

Shen Youran nodded slightly, holding up the hem of her skirt, and carefully toured this luxuriously decorated villa.

Her fingers gently touched all the objects related to Fu Nanzhou, as if this would bring her closer to him.

Fu Nanzhou didn't notice it. He immediately took out the medicine box and disinfected the area where Lu Xi had her skin abraded.

Last night when Lu Xi was sleeping, he quietly disinfected the wound on Lu Xi's arm and applied some ointment to accelerate wound healing. Unexpectedly, the skin was scratched again today.

The delicate and tender girl was injured again and again, and Fu Nanzhou felt extremely distressed.

At the same time, he was a little scared. If he hadn't made that call tonight, if Lu Xi hadn't happened to answer the call, and if the other party happened to be He Taihua instead of his competitor, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Lu Xi was still frightened. There was almost no color on her delicate little face. There was a thin layer of mist in her big dark eyes. She looked at me with pity.

"Are you still scared?" Fu Nanzhou asked her, his tone full of heartache.

Lu Xi shook her head. "I'm not afraid anymore. I wasn't afraid when I heard your voice at Xiaohei Mountain. I knew you would come to save me."

At that time, Lu Xi didn't know that Fu Nanzhou had cooperated with Taihua Group, nor did she know that He Taihua was so afraid of Fu Nanzhou, but she trusted him from the bottom of her heart.

Fu Nanzhou was very happy that she said that, and secretly vowed that he would never let her down!

"How did you answer the phone? If, I mean if, you encounter this kind of thing again next time, don't answer the phone easily, as it may easily stimulate the kidnappers to take extreme actions."

Lu Xi raised her wrist. "After the incident with Chen Ergou, I felt that using only a mobile phone was not enough, so I took advantage of the promotion on the official website and bought this watch. It was the phone watch that saved my life."

Fu Nanzhou's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he couldn't help but scratch her nose with his index finger, "My Mrs. Fu is really too smart."

Lu Xi felt a little embarrassed by the compliment, "No."

Fu Nanzhou smiled, cleaned her wound carefully, put away the medicine box, and sat next to her. "How did He Taihua kidnap you?"

"I was knocked unconscious when I came out of the vegetable market. Yesterday, I bumped into He Xinxin at the entrance of Longtang Hall. He Xinxin was rude and unreasonable, so we had a conflict. He Taihua felt that his daughter had been wronged, so he wanted to vent his anger on her."

Upon hearing this, Fu Nanzhou's face instantly turned as dark as water, his fists clenched together, and the veins on the back of his hands throbbed!
