After I caught the scumbag cheating, Mr. Xiao wanted to marry me
Chapter 88 Provocation
A sentence, just a few words, contains a lot of information.
"Brother Yun", "home", "maid"...
It seems that this girl has a good relationship with Xiao Yun, at least on Wang Ling's level.
The word "home" sounded a bit like the mistress of the Xiao family.
As for the "maid", Shen Lan looked at the clothes she was wearing... The maids in the Xiao family all had exclusive uniforms, a black long skirt with an apron, and their hair was required to be tied into a bun with bangs combed up.
She was wearing a beige skirt today, a low ponytail, thick bangs, and only an apron with a little edge on.
But the girl was smiling, and her expression and tone were too calm, making Shen Lan unable to tell whether she was truly confused or had other intentions.
Wang Ling helped Old Lady Xiao over and said cheerfully, "Yueyue, you misunderstood. Her name is Shen Lan, and she's Brother Yan's newly hired personal assistant."
Yueyue?
Shen Lan frowned, feeling that the name was somewhat familiar.
When she saw Liu Lin, she suddenly remembered that she had heard this name from Xu Dandan before.
This "Yueyue" is the reason why Xu Dandan dares to challenge Liu Lin!
Shen Lan is not a fool. With a little thought, she knows the relationship between Yueyue and Xu Dandan, and the reason why Xu Dandan took pictures of her secretly.
Since Xu Dandan knows her, there is no reason why Yueyue doesn’t know her.
Then what she just said has a deeper meaning.
Shen Lan's eyes flashed, and he raised the corner of his mouth and extended his hand towards her: "Hello, nice to meet you, I'm Shen Lan."
"My name is Zhao Yue." Zhao Yue smiled, but didn't shake her hand. She turned around and went back to support Old Lady Xiao. Her voice was sweet: "Grandma, be careful with the steps."
Shen Lan withdrew his hand, his expression indifferent. Seeing Madam Xiao coming over, he greeted her with a polite smile: "Hello, Madam."
"Hey, you too." Old Mrs. Xiao had been looking at her from just now. Although the girl was not good-looking, she had a generous attitude and her eyes behind the frame were clear when she nodded. She had a good impression of her.
Seeing the old lady's good attitude towards Shen Lan, Zhao Yue felt upset and quickly said, "Grandma, I'm hungry."
The old lady really withdrew her gaze and patted the back of her hand lovingly: "Are you hungry? Then let's go eat. Your father said lunch is ready."
"Yeah." Zhao Yue nodded coquettishly, helped the old lady into the house, and glanced at Shen Lan when she passed by.
What do you say about that look?
Shen Lan pursed her lips, as if she was a little provocative.
When she was just thinking about it, Xiao Yun flicked her forehead with his finger: "What are you thinking about? Go eat."
After saying that, he took a step forward and walked in.
Shen Lan covered his forehead, took a breath, and muttered softly: "You hurt me, how can you be so strong?"
My forehead must have been swollen.
When Zhao Yue heard the noise behind her, her eyes darkened and her heart sank to the bottom.
Before she came back, she thought Xu Dandan was exaggerating. But after seeing the two of them getting along with each other, she realized how special Xiao Yun was to Shen Lan.
So special that she couldn't help but feel jealous.
She couldn't understand what was so good about Shen Lan. She was just so-so in appearance and mediocre in every aspect. How could she deserve Xiao Yun's special treatment?
Just then, during the meal, Xiao Yun pointed to the seat next to him and asked Shen Lan to sit down.
Zhao Yue bit her lower lip and asked innocently, "Miss Shen, will you also eat at the same table with us?"
Shen Lan's hand holding the chopsticks paused, and he felt a little helpless for a moment.
Before, Xiao Yun was the only one at home, and he always asked Shen Lan to eat with him, so Shen Lan was used to it.
Now that the old lady is back, we should really pay attention.
To put it nicely, she is Xiao Yun's personal assistant, but in fact, she is no different from a cook. The Xiao family's cook will not eat with them.
Shen Lan thought for a moment, put down his chopsticks and stood up: "Mr. Xiao, Madam, I'll go back to my room first."
Just as she turned around, a big hand stopped her.
Xiao Yun's face was expressionless. He looked at her with deep eyes, and his attitude did not allow for refusal: "Sit down and eat."
Zhao Yue's eyes flashed when she saw this, and she quickly said, "Ms. Shen, I was just asking, I didn't mean to chase you away. I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself clearly."
Madam Xiao also smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Shen Lan, please sit down and eat. We don't have so many rules at home."
Liu Lin joked, "Yeah, if you leave, I'll have to leave the table too. I won't be able to come to Mr. Xiao's house for free food and drinks anymore. The Xiao family's delicious food is the source of my motivation for work."
Wang Ling followed suit.
With the two people's banter, the atmosphere became much more relaxed and Shen Lan sat down again.
Xiao Yun raised his chopsticks, tilted his head and asked softly, "Which dishes did you make?"
Shen Lan pointed them out to him one by one.
Zhao Yue sat opposite them, watching their interaction, and bit the wooden chopsticks in her hand, leaving deep teeth marks.
Madam Xiao waited for a long time but Xiao Ren didn't show up. She looked unhappy and asked Butler Zhao, "Where is Xiao Ren?"
Butler Zhao had a conflicted expression, but he still said truthfully, "The master is still sleeping in the room. No one is allowed to knock on the door and disturb him."
"Didn't you tell him I was coming back today?"
"Yes, but sir..."
He seemed to be hesitant to speak, and although he didn't say anything, everyone understood what he meant.
The old lady slammed her chopsticks onto the table and said, "Call him over here, call a few more people, and carry him here even if we have to!"
