Lu Yiming pulled Jiang Chuxia aside, feeling a little headache, "Aunt, please don't rub salt into Second Brother's wounds. He's already feeling bad enough."

Jiang Chuxia looked at him, crossed her arms over her chest, looking very angry.

"You don't understand women at all, and you don't understand what your sister-in-law will think in the future!"

Lu Yiming was amused by her. He was a man, with a natural gender difference, so of course he didn't understand women's thoughts.

"Think about it yourself. Sister-in-law is the daughter of the Jing family and has the blood of the Jing family flowing in her body. Even if she doesn't mind what my second brother is hiding, what about the Jing family? If the Jing family forces them to divorce, can sister-in-law resist?"

Jiang Chuxia lowered her head and said nothing.

"No one expected that things would turn out like this today." Lu Yiming sighed.

They didn't expect that the second brother was attracted to Qiao Chuchu; it was even more surprising that Qiao Chuchu was a descendant of the Jing family.

Even if the younger sister-in-law doesn't blame the second brother for hiding the secret from her, the decades-long grudge between the two families is there and cannot be ignored, nor is it so easy to write it off.

Throughout history, countless lovers have been forced to break up and go their separate ways due to family reasons!

In their eyes, the man who had always been fearless and could remain calm in the face of any storms and hardships, showed timidity and hesitation for the first time.

"We can't help much right now, so just talk less and don't cause trouble, understand?" Lu Yiming looked at the person in front of him and admonished her.

Jiang Chuxia was unhappy, and asked him proudly, "Hey, Mr. Lu, why do you control me? Who are you to me?"

Lu Yiming's mouth was slightly stiff, and his smile was a little forced. He stammered, "We are good friends. I'm older than you. It's not too much for you to call me brother, right?"

Jiang Chuxia stared at him intently, and after a few seconds, she said coldly, "Get lost, I don't recognize you."

Watching her turn and walk away, Lu Yiming stood where he was, his hands gradually clenched into fists, and the words she had said that day seemed to ring in his ears again -

"Lu Yiming, let me tell you, this matter is known only to heaven, earth, you and me. If you dare to let a third person know, I will beat you to death!"

"There is nothing between us, it's just a misunderstanding, forget it!"

Jiang Chuxia, it seems like she really doesn't like him.

……

At the Jing family banquet.

The guests had all arrived, and the hall was filled with all kinds of delicacies. Waiters were walking around with glasses of champagne. Jing Xiuyuan had also specially invited a performance team from the National Concert Hall.

Everywhere shows the Jing family's joy at getting their daughter back and how much they value her.

Grandpa Jing held his granddaughter's hand and chatted and laughed with everyone who came forward to congratulate him.

Qiao Chuchu was wearing a dress, holding a wine glass, with a faint smile on her face.

This was the first time in her life that she attended such a banquet. Since her family was by her side, she was not very nervous. She was just a little worried and looked towards the door from time to time.

I don’t know how baby Zi Yan is doing now.

"Grandpa Jing, congratulations."

A man in a dark gray suit stepped forward and looked at Qiao Chuchu.

"Hello, Xiaoxi."

He called her name directly and seemed to be very close to the Jing family.

Qiao Chuchu nodded slightly, "Hello."

Old Master Jing smiled and took the initiative to introduce, "Xiao Xi, this is Xiao Cheng, he is a few years older than you, he held you when you were born."

Qiao Chuchu was stunned by this strange yet familiar statement.

She was stolen by human traffickers and was still an infant when she left the Jing family. She had no memories at all.

"Indeed, I did." Xiao Cheng smiled and looked at Qiao Chuchu, "At that time, Aunt Su and my mother were in the same hospital, in adjacent wards. Xiao Xi was born two days later than my sister."

Old Master Jing had a kind face and said to Qiao Chuchu, "Your brother Xiao Cheng has been helping us find out your whereabouts over the past few years and has helped our family a lot."

"Grandpa Jing, you're welcome. This is what I should do." Xiao Cheng was very polite. "Xiao Xi, if you need my help in Beijing in the future, just let me know."

Qiao Chuchu nodded and thanked him.

In the distance, Su Yihui saw Xiao Cheng talking to her father-in-law and clicked her tongue twice.

"What's wrong?" Jing Xiuyuan asked.

"Alas, if Xiao Xi hadn't already started a family, now that she's back, I really want to match her up with Xiao Cheng. We know each other well and their character and talent are impeccable." Su Yihui sighed. Although she didn't have any opinion of Huo Yunzheng now, she still had some grudges in her heart.

Her daughter was getting married for the first time, and Huo Yunzheng had such a big child. They still didn't know what his past was. Chu Chu didn't say anything, and they couldn't interfere too much.

"Well, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I think Yun Zheng is a good kid. Don't make any comparisons. Be careful that your daughter will get angry with you."

"I know, I know. I'm not stupid. As long as Xiaoxi is happy, anything is fine."

After Xiao Cheng greeted Mr. Jing, he wanted to go to the side to get some peace and quiet, but soon, he was surrounded by people.

Qiao Chuchu noticed this and couldn't help but feel curious.

"Xiao Cheng works in the finance department, and his rank is not low. There are too many people who want to curry favor with him."

Hearing a voice in her ear, Qiao Chuchu turned her head and looked at her brother.

"Xiao Xi, I remember that Huo Yunzheng's parents are also from Beijing."

When Qiao Chuchu heard Jing An change the subject and suddenly brought up this, she was stunned.

Yes, she herself had overlooked that Huo Yunzheng was also from Beijing. When they got married, they only got a marriage certificate but did not hold a wedding banquet. Except for Huo Yunzheng's grandmother, Qiao Chuchu had never met any of his family members.

Now that she is in Beijing, I might as well take advantage of these two days to visit her. It is also the courtesy of a younger generation.

"All the relatives and friends of our family are invited to today's banquet. Originally, my mother wanted to invite the Huo family over, but she was afraid that it would be too abrupt to bring it up at the last minute. So I'm here to ask you to discuss it with Huo Yunzheng and find a time for our two families to have a meal together." Jing An explained.

Qiao Chuchu agreed, "Okay, wait until he brings Zi Yan back and we'll discuss it."

"Yeah." Jing An looked at his sister, feeling a little unfair for her, "Xiao Xi, you should also have a wedding. It's a very important moment for a girl."

Qiao Chuchu didn't care about this. She didn't pay attention to these things. She had participated in other people's weddings and served as a bridesmaid. In her opinion, holding a wedding was simply tiring and torturous. Moreover, many people now hold weddings just to collect the money they gave away in the past, which reduced the meaning.

If she were to hold one, Qiao Chuchu would prefer to find a place with mountains and water, cook some delicious food, invite a few good friends, chat and laugh together, and have a small party.
