After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

The next morning, Lu Sijian dressed up and prepared to attend the bachelorette party.

Tomorrow is the engagement banquet, and Lou Xiao thoughtfully arranged this banquet to help her relax.

He still has some work to do today and won't be able to get here until the afternoon.

Lu Lingbo walked over and volunteered, "Jian, I'll go with you."

Before Lu Sijian could answer, he opened the car door and got in first.

On the way, Lu Lingbo said carefully, "Ah Jian, don't worry, I've already warned everyone in the group not to gossip."

He never expected that Zhao Ke would be so bold as to directly approach his sister and persuade her to break off the engagement.

Has the other party gone mad? This not only offended his sister, but also disgraced the Lu family. No wonder his older brother was so angry that he took his siblings and left on the spot.

Fortunately, Lou Xiao caught up with the Lu family and apologized profusely. His sister also spoke up for him, and the matter was eventually resolved.

Lu Sijian's mood was not affected at all: "It's okay, I don't care."

I'm very satisfied with the apology the Zhao family sent last night. What's a few more whispers and rumors? If they come a few more times, I'll make a killing!

Lu Lingbai glanced at his sister, a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

She probably really loved Lou Xiao, so even when she was wronged, she could only swallow it and optimistically comfort herself that she would apologize.

Aunt Wang also expressed her disapproval, "How can we not care? A person's reputation is so important. That Zhao Ke has gone too far, again and again. Just thinking about how he bullied the young lady so many times makes me want to tear his mouth apart!"

Lu Lingbai glanced at Wang Ma and inexplicably found the old lady quite adorable.

"By the way, Aunt Wang, you've been working hard lately. I've discussed it with my older brother, and your salary will be increased by 20% starting this month. Also, A-Jian is getting engaged. This is a great event for the Lu family, and everyone will receive a bonus. But this must be kept a secret."

He said casually, "The finance department should have already transferred the money to your bank card. Have you checked your account?"

Wang Ma hurriedly took out her phone and asked Lu Sijian to check the account information. Sure enough, there was a record of a bonus being deposited into her account.

Wang Ma was overjoyed. "Thank you, Second Young Master! Thank you, Eldest Miss!"

Lu Lingbai glanced at his sister's expression, thinking to himself, "Now you should finally praise me, right?"

Lu Sijian: "Since eldest and second brothers are so generous, we should mention this good thing to the servants' group."

She sent a group message, deliberately implying that the bonus amount was very high.

As for why you didn't receive that much? Or why some people didn't receive anything at all? Oh, that's none of my business. Ask the person who distributed the money.

[Aren't you afraid that Wang Ma will become the target of public criticism at this point? Haha, what I say is unacceptable, but what Lu Lingbai says is acceptable.]

My older brother is really funny. He always says he dotes on his younger sister, but he only talks the talk; he never gives her anything she wants.

[He likes to do small favors and gifts, but he doesn't give me a single penny of his share of the profits; even if he occasionally gives me jewelry, he makes sure everyone knows about it.]

[He's not like that with other people, is he? He invests in the idiot's shop, sponsors Lu Lingchen's research, and is generous without expecting anything in return. But he absolutely can't let his sister hold any more money. Is he just stingy, or is he treating me like a thief?]

Lu Lingbai was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, "That can't be right. My older brother loves his younger sister so much, how could he not give her anything she wants?"

But no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't recall when his older brother had ever been exceptionally generous to his younger sister.

However, the younger sister must be mistaken; the older brother is not that kind of person.

He must have thought his younger sister was too young, which is why he was helping her watch the money.

Once my sister gets better, I will definitely help her selflessly, just like I did for him and Xiao Chen.

As soon as Lu Sijian arrived at the hotel, she saw Lou Changling, who had been silent for a long time.

This person is a complete hedonist, loves socializing, has a natural performative personality, and enjoys being fawned over.

She thought that since he couldn't go out and have fun, he must have lost a lot of weight, but when they met, she realized she was wrong.

Lou Changling not only didn't lose weight, but actually gained weight, and even developed a beer belly.

He saw the Lu siblings approaching from afar and deliberately raised his voice: "I brought ice cream today, which was made by our housekeeper."

“Our new housekeeper is such a nice person. She’s nothing like those rough old women. She’s very virtuous and capable. She can cook all kinds of dishes and is also very good at making all kinds of snacks and desserts.”

"Everyone else suffers in the summer heat, but I don't. I can't stop eating delicious food every day."

Surrounding him were all wealthy ladies, who nodded in agreement.

You know, good nannies are hard to find these days, and it's not easy to find one that you're satisfied with.

Lu Sijian was speechless; this person just loved to be sarcastic and unpredictable.

[It's enough that you imply I'm not virtuous; why are you looking at Wang Ma? What did she do to you?]

It seems he's been getting along quite well with Aunt Ye lately, but I vaguely remember Aunt Ye not being a very good cook?

Lu Lingbai wasn't particularly demanding of Ye Sao's cooking skills, but to be fair, it wasn't so delicious that he couldn't stop eating it.

But since it was over, he couldn't argue that the other person was bad. "Jian, let's go."

The man next to Lou Changling complimented him: "You're in high spirits because of this happy event. Not only do you look better, but you're also getting younger and younger! Your figure is becoming more and more like that of Boss Lou. I almost mistook you for him when I saw you from afar."

[They're still young, aren't they being treated like pigs?]

Lu Lingbo couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Lou Changling turned to look at Lu Sijian, "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm sorry, I was the one who laughed." Lu Lingbo quickly clarified. He thought for a moment and realized that the other person was an elder, and it was indeed impolite of him to do so, so he said again, "I'm sorry."

Lou Changling didn't take it seriously when he saw it was him, but when he heard the apology, his face turned green.

"Do you think he said something wrong, or do you have a problem with me?" He was very dissatisfied when he heard that Lou Xiao sent a lot of apologies to the Lu family yesterday.

Why should the Lu family act so arrogantly? The Lu family should be grateful that the Lou family didn't turn around and demand a large dowry from the Lu family.

He had a smile on his face, a gentle and gentlemanly demeanor, as if it were just a joke.

Lu Lingbai was even more embarrassed, "No..."

Lou Changling's smile deepened: "Go ahead and say it, I don't care."

In reality, he cared about it terribly and kept pressing it.

Lu Sijian: "Since Fourth Uncle doesn't care, then I'll be frank. Lou Xiao is 185 cm tall, and you are 173 cm tall. Judging from your height, you don't look alike at all."

After saying that, he added in a teasing tone, "Fourth Uncle, you don't really mind, do you?"

"No." Lou Changling forced a smile through gritted teeth. How did she know his real height?

After a while, he said again, "But you got my height wrong. My actual height is 180cm. The difference isn't that big, otherwise Xiao Jiang wouldn't have mistaken me, right?"

He turned to look at Xiao Jiang, who was flattering him.

However, Xiao Jiang sensed something was wrong and had already quietly slipped away.

"Maybe I remembered wrong." Lu Sijian didn't argue. "But I have a piece of advice: if the new aunt's cooking is so delicious that you can't stop eating it, then you should be wary."
