Chapter 215: Stepbrother's Oppression (Blind Girl) 25
"Yun Shushu, I don't need to remind you of what we agreed before. You are responsible for your identity as my fiancée." Lu Changming's tone was filled with a hint of impatience.
Shushu keenly noticed that Lu Changming on the other end of the phone had begun to show some dissatisfaction.
She fell into a long silence, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.
She knew clearly that she should stay away from him while she was not too dependent on him and completely cut off this emotional entanglement.
Just like how she reluctantly gave up her love for Lu Changming.
But Shushu was so indecisive that she finally agreed to go back tomorrow.
"Lu Changming, please come pick me up the day after tomorrow. I will go."
"That's more like it. See you the day after tomorrow."
After hearing Shushu's reply, Lu Changming on the other end of the phone smiled.
In the past, similar banquets were commonplace for Shushu, but this time it was different. The venue was a resort hotel located on the mountainside.
Every time Shushu appears at such occasions, Shi Qingzhi will invite a professional styling team to dress her up carefully.
When Lu Changming came to greet Shushu, he was once again shocked by Yun Shushu's beauty.
The woman's long hair was like a waterfall, tied up with a simple white jade hairpin. She was wearing a modified cheongsam with a royal blue printed pattern, which perfectly outlined her slender waist and graceful figure.
You know, this royal blue color is extremely difficult to control. If you are not careful, your skin tone will appear dark and you will look very rustic and rural, so few people wear clothes of this color.
However, this bright and bold color exudes a different kind of beauty and playfulness when worn by Yun Shushu, and makes her skin look whiter than snow, as if it could be blown away.
It is like a fresh and juicy lychee, crystal clear and mouth-watering.
Shushu couldn't see it. Lu Changming was sitting in the car, looking at her unscrupulously. Time seemed to have stopped. A long, long time passed until the car slowly stopped in front of the hotel.
Lu Changming carefully took Shushu's hand and led her into the hotel located halfway up the mountain.
It was early summer and mosquitoes were scarce. The hotel was well taken care of by a dedicated person and the surrounding environment was as beautiful as a fairyland, like a paradise isolated from the world.
The air in the mountains is exceptionally fresh. Even though Shushu cannot witness all this beautiful scenery with her own eyes, she can still truly feel the refreshing breath that refreshes her heart.
Not long after the banquet started, Lu Changming's popularity with the opposite sex was fully demonstrated, and many girls took the initiative to come forward to greet him.
Some of them were acquaintances of Shushu, while others were strangers. Faced with such a scene, Shushu tried hard not to pay attention to the girls who were chatting and laughing around Lu Changming.
However, Lu Changming's eyes never left Yun Shushu, always paying attention to her expressions and actions.
Lu Changming stared at Shushu's face closely, and saw that her expression was very calm, without revealing too many emotional fluctuations.
There was no expression on her face when she saw him interacting with other women. She didn't mind at all that he talked and laughed with other women. She just ate the chocolate cake on the plate like a kitten.
He was keenly aware of Yun Shushu's cold attitude towards him, and a sense of loss surged in his heart.
At this moment, he suddenly found the group of women around him boring, so he found a random reason to send away the group of beauties surrounding him.
"Why did they all leave?" Shushu asked curiously.
Lu Changming frowned, stared at her, and asked, "Yun Shushu, are you happy to see me chatting happily with another woman?"
She didn't care who Lu Changming was with, as long as he didn't go too far and didn't shake her position as his fiancée, it didn't matter to her.
However, Lu Changming did not get a response from Shushu.
At this time, Murong Lan walked towards them with a wine glass in hand.
"Changming, Shushu, it's been a long time since we last met." Murong Lan greeted them in an intellectual and elegant tone.
Then, she said without beating around the bush: "Changming, I have a few words to say to Shushu alone. Do you mind?"
After saying that, she looked at Lu Changming with a smile.
Lu Changming looked at Murong Lan, frowned slightly, and responded: "Sister Murong, is there anything that even I can't listen to?"
There was a hint of doubt and dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Murong Lan picked up the wine glass in her hand and gently shook it. The red wine in the glass rippled like a clear spring. She looked at the person opposite with a smile on her face. She smiled charmingly and said softly: "Well, I do have some private words to tell Sister Shushu, so it may not be convenient for others to hear~"
Shu Shu, who was standing by, heard this and agreed with a smile: "Chang Ming, go somewhere else first!"
"Okay, I'll come see you later."
Lu Changming turned and left, and as he walked further away, the sound of his footsteps gradually disappeared.
After confirming that Lu Changming had gone far away, Shu Shu asked, "Sister Murong, you deliberately sent Changming away. Is there something important you want to tell me?"
Murong Lan sighed slightly, put down the wine glass in her hand, and revealed a hint of apology in her eyes: "Shushu, I'm really sorry for not being able to take care of you at the bar last time..."
Shushu quickly waved her hands and consoled him, "That's not your fault. It was such a mess back then and we got separated. It couldn't be helped. Is that why you're looking for me?"
Shushu blinked with a look of suspicion on her face. Based on her understanding of Murong Lan, it was obvious that she sent Lu Changming away not just to express her apology.
Sure enough, the next second Murong Lan whispered: "I seemed to see Xie Zhenting coming that day..."
Murong Lan stopped talking here and turned her gaze to Yun Shushu, carefully observing her reaction.
In fact, these were just Murong Lan's own guesses and there was no solid evidence. She planned to further confirm whether her ideas were correct based on Yun Shushu's facial expressions and body movements at the moment.
"What do you want to say? Xie Zhenting is my brother. Isn't it normal for him to come pick me up when I'm injured?..."
Yun Shushu tried to remain calm, trying to suppress her inner panic, and asked Murong Lan in a calm manner.
However, in front of the battle-hardened and experienced Murong Lan, Yun Shushu was like a blank sheet of paper, so innocent that it was heartbreaking.
