After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

At this time, the Lu family.

Lu Zhongyuan sat in the study with a gloomy face, silent, opposite him was the noisy Lu Keke.

Chu Yue's scandals of "pimping" and "plagiarism" had already annoyed him enough, but he didn't expect that his daughter was just as disappointing as her mother, doing things dishonestly and being slandered for nothing.

"Dad, why don't you say anything? Are you just going to watch them bully—"

"That's enough!" Lu Zhongyuan shouted impatiently, "Don't you think this is trouble enough?"

"You're just like your mother! You're both useless!"

Lu Keke trembled in fear at Lu Zhongyuan's severity, and her anger and unwillingness disappeared, replaced by grievance and cowardice.

She couldn't imagine that her father, who had always spoiled her and was always so loving to Chu Yue, would actually say such a thing!

Tears instantly filled her eyes and Lu Keke began to sob softly.

When Lu Zhongyuan heard the crying, his temples began to throb with pain and he became more and more irritated.

"Why are you crying? You just cry all day long! You are useless!"

Lu Keke sobbed and shouted:

"It's not my fault! If it weren't for that bitch Lu Ranran——"

"All you know is a bitch and a slut. What have you learned from your mother?!"

The anger rushed to her brain, and Lu Keke stood up suddenly and said coquettishly:

"Dad, why are you biased towards Lu Ranran?!"

Lu Zhongyuan also got angry when he heard this.

He is such a girl, how come he hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter?

It would be fine if he was competing with Lu Ranran for some insignificant favors on a normal day, but now that things have come to this, he is still competing with others for favors and being jealous. It really disappoints him!

Thinking of this, deep disappointment replaced the anger in his heart.

He lowered his eyes, turned around, and said coldly with his back to Lu Ranran:

"You go."

Lu Keke seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water, and the expression that was originally ready to attack froze on her face.

After a while, she replied somewhat dully:

"Dad, what did you say?"

"Such a simple sentence, do I need to repeat it a second time?"

Lu Keke suddenly had a terrible guess in her mind.

She asked tremblingly:

"Dad...are you unwilling to take care of us?"

Ever since Chu Yue's accident, Lu Ke could clearly feel Lu Zhongyuan's indifference towards the matter. Even when Lu Keke wanted to see Chu Yue, Lu Zhongyuan did not express his willingness to accompany her.

Now he is extremely indifferent and even shows boredom.

Lu Keke's originally anxious and angry heart suddenly calmed down.

"Dad, since you said so, then I understand."

"From now on, you don't have to worry about my mother and I. I can handle it myself!"

After she finished speaking, Lu Keke turned around and left angrily, leaving only a resolute back to Lu Zhongyuan.

Listening to the footsteps gradually fading away, Lu Zhongyuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It seems that I have to make plans for myself and the Lu family as soon as possible.

he thinks.

Different from the tense and oppressive atmosphere of the Lu family, the lake villa was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

If you can ignore the childishness...

Lu Ranran stood on the second floor, holding on tightly to the stairs beside her, with a look of determination and fearlessness on her face.

Shen Xiling stood a few steps down, his line of sight just level with Lu Ranran.

He crossed his arms calmly with a smile on his face.

Lu Ranran's cheeks flushed and she turned her head away as if avoiding him, but her tone of voice was firm.

"I, I can go down by myself! My foot is almost healed."

Ever since her foot was gloriously "damaged in battle" at Hongshan, Shen Xiling would seriously use the doctor's words as an excuse every day to confidently "request" to be carried downstairs.

At first, Lu Ranran thought that Shen Xiling was thoughtful, and she didn't like to make others worry too much, so she accepted it with peace of mind.

But until a few days ago, Shen Xiling changed his previous "carrying" and suddenly started to "carry" Lu Ranran like a princess...

Lu Ranran suddenly realized that this matter was not so simple.

So, after experiencing the princess hug, the waist hug, etc., Lu Ranran finally hardened her heart and showed a rejection attitude to Shen Xiling.

There was no sign of anger at the rejection on Shen Xiling's face.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked softly:

"Really?"

Lu Ranran nodded quickly like a chick pecking at rice.

Shen Xiling was silent for a while, and finally sighed, "In this case——"

Seeing victory just ahead, Li Ma's voice came from the direction of the kitchen.

"Master and Madam, it's time for dinner!"

“Come on—ah!”

Just when Lu Ranran was distracted for a few seconds to answer Li Ma's words, she was suddenly picked up in the air without warning.

Shen Xiling put one hand under her armpit from behind and held her legs tightly with the other hand.

In order to maintain balance, Lu Ranran could only hug his neck tightly. When she raised her eyes, she met Shen Xiling's smiling eyes.

A feeling of frustration gave rise to a spirit of unwillingness to admit defeat in Lu Ranran's heart.

"Ouch, my knee is so tight..."

As she spoke, she twisted her body with a rogue look as if she would not stop until she had caused some trouble.

However, the size difference was too great, and no matter how she shook, Shen Xiling's arms still held her tightly, and her steps were not affected at all.

Lu Ranran continued to work hard...

At this time, Aunt Li, who had finished her work, came out of the kitchen wiping her hands. She happened to see this scene. A smile instantly appeared on her face, but she still said something tactful.

"Good morning, Master and Madam."

Lu Ranran keenly caught the teasing in Li Ma's eyes, like the embarrassment of being caught reading a novel while studying, and her face instantly became hot.

Shen Xiling stopped when he saw that things were going well, and while gently putting Lu Ranran back on the ground, he said to Aunt Li:

"Good morning, is it time to feed Ah Huang?"

When Ah Huang heard his own name, he shouted even more happily outside the door.

Li Ma nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, look at me, I was so busy that I forgot."

So he quickly turned around and left.

Shen Xiling came close to Lu Ranran and asked very considerately:

"Let's eat? You want me to hold you——"

"No need!" Lu Ranran rejected him flatly and limped towards the restaurant in her protective gear.

At the dinner table, Shen Xiling served Lu Ranran porridge as usual.

Lu Ranran ate sullenly.

Because of the frustration and embarrassment she just felt, she decided to ignore Shen Xiling for the time being.

Shen Xiling looked at the face opposite her, which was obviously angry but pretending to be indifferent, and couldn't help but find it very cute.

But he couldn't let this emotion continue.

So he spoke:

"Qian Ying's steel mill has been relocated and built. Do you want to go and see it together?"

Lu Ranran didn't even raise her head, as if she was still angry, and muttered:

"let me see......"

"There will be a small press conference then, and you may need to show up."

After saying this, Lu Ranran remembered that she also had an official identity - the president of Shen Construction and the wife of Shen Xiling.
