Siheyuan: The beauty Xueru Huizhen, the birds are jealous

After a long speech, Xu Damao felt that he had run out of words, so he estimated the time and took the initiative to prepare dinner.

"Miss Lou," he said politely, "please wait a moment. I will go to the kitchen and cook some delicious dishes for you to taste."

Not long after, Xu Damao carefully prepared four dishes and a soup.

For this dinner, he spent a lot of money, purchasing rare ingredients from the market at high prices, and even bought a chicken and prepared a bottle of red wine.

He had a plan in mind - if Lou Xiao'e got a few drinks at his house, maybe it would bring him more opportunities. However, Lou Xiao'e knew nothing about Xu Damao's plan.

After tasting a few bites of the dish, she had made up her mind when comparing it to Yang Ming's cooking.

Facing Xu Damao's expectant gaze, Lou Xiao'e said bluntly: "The taste of this dish is really disappointing. I'm afraid even the servants of ordinary families won't like it."

She glanced at her watch, then stood up and said, "It's getting late. Today's meeting is over. I should say goodbye."

After that, she turned around resolutely, leaving Xu Damao with a cold back. Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiaoe's back as she walked away, feeling confused.

He was puzzled as to why Lou Xiao'e, who had been chatting with him happily before, suddenly became so cold. Was it really because the food was not to his taste?

However, while Xu Damao was still thinking, Lou Xiao'e had already stood in front of Yang Ming's door and knocked gently.

"Miss Lou?" Yang Ming opened the door and saw Lou Xiao'e, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He had not known before that Xu Damao's blind date was Lou Xiao'e. When he saw her appear in front of his door, he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

But he did not delve into it further and just enthusiastically invited Lou Xiao'e in.

After they sat down, they started to talk freely. Meanwhile, Xu Damao was still alone at home, thinking about the reason why Lou Xiaoe left.

In this drama, Lou Xiao'e quietly raised her face, with a smile on her fresh and picturesque face.

She whispered to Yang Ming, "Mr. Yang, the food in your house smells so good that it makes me salivate. I wonder if I can have the honor to share this delicious meal here?"

Hearing this, Yang Ming turned his gaze to Xu Huizhen beside him.

Xu Huizhen, the intelligent woman, had never had any contact with Lou Xiao'e, but she sensed some subtle emotions in her eyes.

She quickly stood up and responded in the name of Yang Ming: "Since you are Yang Ming's friend, please come in and enjoy this homely warmth together."

Lou Xiao'e's gaze shifted from Yang Ming to Xu Huizhen, and a ripple arose in her heart.

Seeing Xu Huizhen's gentle manners and quiet temperament, she secretly admired in her heart that this woman and Yang Ming were indeed a perfect match made in heaven.

"Thank you for the hospitality." Lou Xiao'e thanked softly, and then introduced herself: "I am Lou Xiao'e." During the meal, Yang Ming was surprised to find that he seemed to have become a bystander in this conversation.

He watched as Lou Xiao'e and Xu Huizhen gradually became close from the reservedness they initially felt, and even began to share their thoughts with each other.

He was deeply moved, he didn't know that friendship between women could be so quick and sincere.

However, what he did not realize was that Xu Huizhen and Lou Xiao'e had already gained a preliminary understanding of each other during this meal.

Through the conversation, Xu Huizhen learned about Lou Xiao'e's background and gained a deeper understanding of this woman who was concerned about Yang Ming.

But she did not develop any hostility because of this. Instead, she felt that Lou Xiao'e was not the kind of person who would be jealous.

Since she could accept sharing her husband's company with a close friend like Chen Xueru, she naturally would not be averse to Lou Xiao'e.

Xu Huizhen knew Yang Ming's excellence, and his charm and talent were not something she could enjoy alone. Therefore, from the moment she met Lou Xiao'e, Xu Huizhen decided to get to know her better.

And through this meal, she had a very good impression of Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Xiao'e also felt relieved at the moment. She had originally come to the Siheyuan through a blind date with the intention of giving it a try, hoping to get close to Yang Ming and his family.

But after seeing the harmonious scene of their family, she had thought of retreating. However, now, she feels that she has taken an important step.

However, it is fortunate that even after seeing through Lou Xiao'e's intentions, Xu Huizhen still maintained her rare tolerance.

She was like a close confidant, quietly accompanying Lou Xiao'e and talking to her.

During their conversation, Xu Huizhen did not show any arrogance, but instead shared delicate topics between women with Lou Xiao'e.

They even agreed to stroll along Qianmen Street together in their spare time, and then go to the familiar pub to have a few drinks and enjoy a moment of tranquility.

Xu Huizhen's peaceful and accepting attitude made Lou Xiao'e feel close to her. But at this moment, an unexpected visitor suddenly appeared and broke the tranquility.

That was Xu Damao! He roared angrily, "Lou Xiao'e, why did you leave so decisively? It turns out you were having an affair with someone else!"

He pointed at Yang Ming, his voice getting even more excited, "How could you not know that Yang Ming is already a married man? The daughter of the Lou family actually gave up everything for a man and even went to his house to share dinner... It's simply a disgrace to the family!"

Seeing Lou Xiao'e and Xu Huizhen sitting on both sides of Yang Ming, as if they were his two confidantes, Xu Damao's eyes were filled with anger and jealousy.

All the rationality in his mind disappeared at this moment.

He shouted loudly, attracting many residents in the courtyard. They all rushed to the backyard to find out what was going on.

After all, Xu Damao's blind date had long been a legend in the courtyard, and the arrival of Lou Xiao'e, the daughter of a famous family, made everyone envious.

At this moment, hearing Xu Damao's accusation, many people sympathized with him, but also had some doubts about Lou Xiao'e.

There were discussions one after another, and the whole courtyard was filled with speculation and discussion. In this noisy courtyard, an inexplicable oppressive atmosphere quietly spread.

"If this is true, isn't Xu Damao's situation too unfortunate?" someone sighed in a low voice.

"Yes, the originally scheduled marriage was suddenly broken up, not to mention that the other party is married. This... is really hard to talk about."

"What should we do? Who can seek justice for Xu Damao?"

"Perhaps the woman learned that Xu Damao was ill, so she decided to find another man and chose Yang Ming instead of having any entanglement with him?"

"Alas, no matter what, we cannot let Xu Damao continue to make trouble."

"If the people in the neighboring courtyards knew about this, the reputation of our courtyard would be ruined!"

When Yi Zhonghai heard these discussions, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
