Fu Xiaomin hung up the phone and sighed helplessly at Tang Ningzi.
"How was it?" Tang Ningzi asked nervously.”
Fu Xiaomin smiled bitterly." He ignored me and said that if he wanted to talk, he would let you talk to him personally."”
"He's just that arrogant and rude. Xiaomin, don't mind him.”Tang Ningzi was so angry that her face turned green. She quickly comforted Fu Xiaomin.
Fu Xiaomin smiled, indicating that she didn't mind. She even comforted her,"Don't be anxious. If he wants to resolve this matter properly, he will come looking for you sooner or later. You just stay here well. We'll talk when he comes.“
"Yes." Tang Ningzi nodded.
However, neither of them expected that Lu Jinchong would not show up after three days. He did not even give them a call.
On the fourth day, Tang Ningzi's brother suddenly called Fu Xiaomin. He asked Fu Xiaomin to tell Tang Ningzi that something had happened at home and that she had to come home immediately.
"Ning Zi, don't worry. I haven't heard anything about your family. Maybe your parents know that you're back in the country, so they want you to go home.”Fu Xiaomin saw Tang Ningzi's anxious expression and quickly comforted her.
"Xiaomin, you don't know. My mom has high blood pressure and is in poor health." Tang Ningzi shook her head. I have to go back quickly. What if it's my mother…I'm so unfilial. I didn't even think of going home to visit when I came back.”
"Don't worry, I'll send you there.”Fu Xiaomin quickly stood up.
Tang Ningzi nodded and sat in Fu Xiaomin's car. Because it was the city council's compound, Fu Xiaomin was familiar with the place. She quickly walked Tang Ningzi to the door.
"Xiaomin, let's go in together!" Tang Ningzi invited before getting out of the car.
Fu Xiaomin smiled bitterly and shook her head."Forget it, I won't go. I still have things to do at the studio. Call me when you're done. I'll pick you up.”
"Thank you, Xiaomin." Tang Ningzi said gratefully.
Tang Ningzi was really thankful that she had found such a good friend.
"You're welcome." Fu Xiaomin chuckled and turned the car around.
Tang Ningzi pressed the doorbell and the auntie opened the door. She was surprised to see Tang Ningzi,""Ning Zi is back. Secretary and Teacher He are still talking about you.”
"Auntie Feng, is my mom okay?" Tang Ningzi quickly asked.
"It's inside. Take a look for yourself." Aunty Feng smiled as she let Tang Ningzi in. She then rushed into the living room and shouted.
Tang Ningzi's elder sister, Tangning Wu, came out to welcome her. When she saw Tang Ningzi, she lowered her voice and said,""You're finally back."
"What's wrong?" This was the first time Tang Ningzi had seen her sister so nervous. She couldn't help but worry.
"Go and see for yourself." Tang Ningwu did not explain further as she pouted towards the living room.
Tang Ningzi walked over to the living room. Other than her parents, her elder brother, and sister-in-law, there was someone else sitting there.
She was no stranger to this person. He sat elegantly on the sofa with a smile on his face. His smile was pure and harmless. However, as long as the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted up, it would reveal a bit of his evil nature.
"Lu Jinchong? Why are you here?" Tang Ningzi gasped in surprise.
Lu Jinchong smiled, stood up, and walked to her side. He put his hand on her shoulder affectionately and said,""Of course I'm here to visit my parents-in-law. Ning-Ning, I'm sorry I came back so late. Why didn't you go home these few days? Are you angry with me?”
Tang Ningzi had goosebumps all over her body. She was so disgusted by him that she was trembling. He clearly knew what was going on, so how could he still pretend to this extent?
But before she could speak, Secretary Tang said in a deep voice,"Alright, since everyone is here, let's eat first!”
Tang Ningzi finally remembered that it was lunchtime. She had been in a hurry to come back and had forgotten to check the exact time.
"Father-in-law, I'll drink with you." Lu Jinchong smiled at Secretary Tang.
Secretary Tang nodded gently. Secretary Tang was a die-hard person and had never been kind to his son. She did not expect that she would actually see Lu Jinchong in a different light.
Tang Ningzi was dumbfounded. She didn't react until her sister nudged her.
"Ning Zi, come here, I have something to ask you.”Tang Ningzi's mother, Teacher He, pulled a long face and called her to the side hall.
Tang Ningzi knew what her mother wanted to ask, so she took a deep breath and followed her.
Without waiting for his mother to speak, he lowered his head and muttered,""Mom, I know I've embarrassed you. It's my fault. I've let you down.”
"What happened to Zhao Jiawei…wasn't your fault.”Teacher He said sadly," We're also very sad about what happened. Even if you didn't say anything, we wouldn't have let you continue the wedding because of your reputation." However, you suddenly went on the spot to look for someone to marry. Your father and I didn't expect it and couldn't stop it.”
Tang Ningzi lowered her head even further. She had gone overseas with Lu Jinchong for their honeymoon without even informing him, just so she could avoid her parents 'scolding.
However, this day had come, and he could not avoid it.
"Fortunately, the Lu family and our family are of equal status. Although your father has never approved of having anything to do with merchants, the Lu family is different. It's a century-old aristocratic family in Tong City. Even our family is considered to be above them. Today, Lu Jinchong came over first. The rumors about him in the past weren't good, but after chatting with him just now, your father and I were very satisfied. No matter what mentality you had at that time, marriage is marriage. You have to live well after marriage and don't let others see you as a joke.”
Tang Ningzi pursed her lips and dug her fingers into her palms.
As expected, her mother understood her and knew what she was thinking. These words were simply a warning to her not to rashly think about divorce.
But…
"Let's go eat! Two different people needed some time to get used to each other.”Mr. He did not wait for his daughter to speak and said slowly.
Tang Ningzi sighed in her heart. In the end, she couldn't bring herself to say that she wanted a divorce.
Her mother was not in good health, so why should she rub salt into her wounds and make her parents unhappy?
The meal was very heartwarming. Lu Jinchong acted like a good man. During the meal, he kept putting food into Tang Ningzi's bowl, and it was all Tang Ningzi's favorite food.
Not all of these dishes were made by Auntie Feng. There was also the food box that Lu Jinchong had brought. They were all Secretary Tang and his wife's favorite dishes.
Secretary Tang was incorruptible and refused to accept expensive gifts even from his children. Thus, Lu Jinchong played along with Secretary Tang and brought two bottles of wine and some food boxes over. As expected, Secretary Tang was pleased.
After dinner, they sat for a while more before Lu Jinchong said that he had something to do at the company and wanted to leave.
Secretary Tang and Teacher He stood up and said to Tang Ningzi,""Ning Zi, you guys go back together! Come back and see me again when you have time." Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:082820187:27PM
