After hesitating for a moment, Lu Tang pressed the call button.

"Lu Tang, did grandpa call you?"

Only then did Lu Tang realize that she had stayed up too late last night and forgot to call Grandpa Ji back.

"Grandpa asked me to pick you up. Where are you?" Ji Xuan's tone was calm, completely devoid of the momentum he had previously used to confront her.

"I'm at the company."

Lu Tang was a little stunned and even suspected that Ji Xuan was stimulated by something.

The only sound on the phone was "I'll pick you up" and then the call was hung up.

It seems that since Grandpa Ji’s last birthday, Ji Xuan has started to become different.

The tone he used when speaking to her became much more considerate, and even when she and Lu Xiaoxiao had quarrels recently, he did not stand behind Lu Xiaoxiao to support her.

Is there some conflict between him and Lu Xiaoxiao?

Lu Tang couldn't find any other reason, so he could only think so.

Soon, Ji Xuan's car stopped downstairs of the company. Lu Tang was already ready and waiting downstairs.

After getting in the car, Lu Tang fastened his seat belt, but the car did not start.

"Let's go, what are you standing there for?" Lu Tang turned to look at him, meeting his eyes.

Ji Xuan coughed tactically a few times, his eyes dodging: "On the neck."

Lu Tang looked puzzled and opened the mirror on the passenger side sun visor.

Only then did she realize that the collar of her shirt was not fastened properly, revealing the mark left by the "little male vixen" last night.

Suddenly, a hint of red stained her cheeks. She adjusted her clothes in front of the mirror and turned her head away.

The car started slowly and the air in the car was very stiff.

Ji Xuan spoke first: "You were with him last night?"

Lu Tang lowered his eyes slightly, obviously surprised by this question.

But she didn't hide it. She felt that since Ji Xuan was openly with Lu Xiaoxiao, she had nothing to hide.

"Ah."

After a "hmm", the car was quiet again.

"I know what happened last night. Xiaoxiao was indeed wrong. I will never speak to you like that again without reason and side with her."

Ji Xuan looked ahead, but his heart was beating nervously in the car.

The sudden words shocked Lu Tang's heart. She frowned, wondering what was wrong with Ji Xuan.

Was he apologizing to her? Was he giving in?

"I don't need it. Just do what you want." She sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in her smile.

She got through the most difficult times alone.

His attempt to say a few nice words now was like trying to offset all the harm he had done to her before; it was impossible.

Seeing that Lu Tang had stopped him from speaking, he didn't continue and changed the subject: "Grandpa said that our wedding should be put on the agenda. This time he asked us to go back, it should be because of this matter."

Lu Tang heard this during the phone call last night, and also saw the reaction of the "little male vixen" to this matter.

What she is most worried about now is not getting married, but "little male vixen".

Now the development of things is completely out of her control.

Lu Tang is having fun.

Before she could speak, Ji Xuan's phone rang.

His cell phone was connected to the car stereo, and the volume was so loud that it brought Lu Tang back to his senses.

Ji Xuan hesitated for a moment and pressed the call button.

"Brother Ji Xuan, are you on your way to the old house now?" Lu Xiaoxiao's voice was filled with laughter.

Ji Xuan murmured "hmm" softly.

She continued to ask: "When will you come back? Are you with your sister now?"

"Ah."

"Brother Jixuan, when will you come back?"

Ji Xuan's attitude was obviously cold: "Tonight, or tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

After saying that, the phone hung up.

Lu Tang's lips became a line: "You two, did you have a fight?"

Ji Xuan had always spoken sweetly and mushy to Lu Xiaoxiao before, but today he was so cold, which made Lu Tang confused.

It's not just Ji Xuan, Lu Xiaoxiao also seems to be acting strangely today.

In the past, every time Grandpa Ji forced Ji Xuan to attend an event with her, Lu Xiaoxiao would make a fuss.

Listening to the phone call just now, there was actually some...expectation in Lu Xiaoxiao's voice?

Suddenly, a bad premonition came to his mind, and Lu Tang took a deep breath.

"We didn't quarrel." Ji Xuan said.

He didn't know what he was anymore.

Ever since the last birthday party of Grandpa Ji, when he saw Lu Tang's calm, serious and beautiful look, he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.

From then on, his eyes couldn't help but look for Lu Tang.

He even developed a feeling of disgust towards Lu Xiaoxiao.

It was already 12 o'clock when Lu Tang woke up, and it was already afternoon when he arrived at the Ji family's old house.

The two of them entered the house together, and Grandpa Ji was already waiting inside.

"Come and sit down. Grandpa has something important to tell you two today." Grandpa Ji smiled, and his face couldn't hide the happiness.

"You've been married for such a long time, it's time to put the wedding on the agenda." Grandpa Ji picked up the tea, put it to his lips and took a sip.

Lu Tang's face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

Grandpa Ji lowered his eyes and met her gaze: "Little Tang girl, if you have any requests, just tell me. Gift, hardware, car, house, you can ask for anything."

A wave of guilt washed over her, and she smiled: "I'll follow Grandpa's arrangements."

Grandpa Ji showed a satisfied smile on his face: "Little Tang is still as well behaved as when she was little. Don't worry, Grandpa won't treat you badly!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the wedding will be at the end of the month."

As soon as the words fell, Ji Xuan and Lu Tang looked up at the same time, their eyes full of surprise.

Today is the 23rd, which is already the end of the month.

Looking at their surprised expressions, Grandpa Ji explained: "Don't worry, I found the best wedding planning company in Beijing, and I won't let you two get too tired."

Lu Tang was speechless for a moment. He wanted to refuse, but he couldn't say the words.

This feeling stems from the guilt towards Grandpa Ji.

She has been favored by Grandpa Ji since she was a child and has never said anything to spoil Grandpa Ji's fun.

"Xiaotang girl, are you free tomorrow?" Grandpa Ji continued to ask.

Lu Tang nodded: "Yes."

Grandpa Ji said, "I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow afternoon to try on your wedding dress."

This happened so suddenly that she was out of shape for the whole afternoon.

In the evening, the Ji family started eating early, and Grandpa Ji even asked the kitchen to prepare a few of her favorite dishes.

Looking at the dishes on the table, she couldn't muster any interest at all.

Her mind was full of the man she had been intimate with last night.

It's time to finally end things between them.

After dinner, she and Ji Xuan returned to the room together.

After closing the door, Ji Xuan exposed her mistake: "Are you still thinking about him?"

Lu Tang met his eyes and smiled hoarsely: "You are the least qualified person to ask this question."

Ji Xuan frowned and subconsciously moved closer to her: "Lu Tang, I don't care who that person is. We are getting married, and you have to break up with him."

His tone was aggressive, as if he was the one standing in a superior position of innocence, and his eyes were looking down at her.

Hearing this, Lu Tang just thought it was ridiculous: "Ji Xuan, you should first cut off your own relationship before saying this to me."
