1445 The Reason for They Missed Each Other (1)
When Lu Zijia saw his useless appearance, she couldn’t help but cover her eyes.
In the past, when he was with Cheng Su’er, wasn’t he quite proactive? He gave out a large number of Spirit Stones, spirit weapons, pills, and so on.
Why did he become so useless now that he was with Cheng Xin’er?
The City Lord’s wife’s gaze also landed on Liang Yingjun with Lu Zijia, but her attitude became cold. It was obvious that she didn’t like Liang Yingjun.
“Then why is Second Young Master Liang here?”
Lu Zijia, who had seen the change in the City Lord’s wife, couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows slightly, but she didn’t say anything for Liang Yingjun.
After all, complicated matters like relationships should be resolved by the person involved.
“I… Ma’am, has Xin’er returned to the residence?” Liang Yingjun gritted his teeth and finally asked the question he was most concerned about.
The City Lord’s wife frowned slightly, and a clearly displeased expression appeared on her face. “Second Young Master Liang, you’re not related to my daughter. Isn’t it a little inappropriate for you to call her by her maiden name? Besides, there doesn’t seem to be a need to tell Second Young Master Liang where my daughter is, right?
Liang Yingjun’s face turned pale as he explained anxiously, “Ma’am, I know I don’t have the right to ask, but I’m really worried about Xin’er. I don’t mean anything else. I just want to know if Xin’er is safe now.”
Liang Yingjun’s expression was sincere, and the worry in his eyes was undisguised.
“Since you don’t have any other intentions, please leave.” The City Lord’s wife chased him away.
Seeing that her youngest cousin was about to be kicked out of the house, Lu Zijia couldn’t help but shake her head and think to herself, He clearly cares about the young lady, but he insists that he doesn’t have any other intentions. Is he going to be beaten up? Or is he looking for a beating?
“Ma’am, please wait.”
Lu Zijia stopped the City Lord’s wife from getting up and leaving and explained, “Ma’am, I believe you already know what happened in the city today, right?”
The City Lord’s wife was quite respectful to Lu Zijia, a young inscriber.
A trace of confusion flashed across his eyes, but he still nodded. “Boss Lu, are you referring to the attack on the Lu family’s bridal escort team?”
Cheng Su’er was from the Cheng family. As the wife of the City Lord, it was impossible for her not to know that such a huge thing had happened.
“That’s right.”
Lu Zijia made an inviting gesture, indicating for the City Lord’s wife to sit down and talk slowly.
The City Lord’s wife glanced in the direction of the inner hall and finally sat down again. “Boss Lu, if you have anything to say, let’s get straight to the point.”
With the City Lord’s wife’s words, Lu Zijia didn’t keep her in suspense anymore. She told her about Liang Yingjun rushing to the agreed location and being abducted by the men in black.
Of course, Lu Zijia skipped over the question of why Liang Yingjun was saved later, not to mention that she was the one who saved him.
While explaining, Lu Zijia didn’t miss any subtle reaction from the City Lord’s wife.
However, apart from her darkened expression, the City Lord’s wife didn’t have any other reaction.
“City Lord’s wife, forgive me for asking, but did Miss Cheng Xin’er go to the agreed place today?” Lu Zijia asked.
In the past month, Cheng Xin’er had often “coincidentally” met her younger cousin. As her mother, it was impossible for her to not know about it.
Therefore, the City Lord’s wife tacitly agreed to their “coincidental encounter”.
The City Lord’s wife didn’t answer immediately. After taking a few glances at Liang Yingjun, she sighed slightly. “Let Xin’er say this herself!”
