Chapter 134: Is Miss Lu Satisfied with My Body? (6)
“He was accused of bribery and tax evasion.” Lu Manman never hid anything from Gu Xin.
“How did this happen? Was he framed?”
“Yes, he was framed.”
“Who framed Uncle?!” Gu Xin was agitated.
“The Wen family.”
“Do you have evidence?”
“No.”
“Then, what should we do?” Gu Xin was about to cry. “Manman, you must be upset having to deal with this yourself.”
“I’m alright.” Lu Manman’s voice was really calm.
She was no longer the twenty-three-year-old Lu Manman.
The Lu Manman of that time might really have been at a loss, but the Lu Manman now had learned to tolerate and bear with it.
“Moreover, Mo Yuanxiu is with me,” she added.
“Is Mo Yuanxiu really trustworthy?” Gu Xin asked.
“At least, he’s better than Wen Yun.” Lu Manman was very sure.
She felt as if someone was looking at her.
“Then, what are you going to do next?”
“I’ll look for loopholes. I don’t believe that framing people can be done flawlessly.”
“Manman, why do I feel like you’re only half a year older than me, but you seem ten years older?” Gu Xin was being direct.
Lu Manman wrinkled her nose. “I’ve always been more mature than you.”
Gu Xin was speechless. “I’m not childish. I’m just nice. I don’t like people who scheme against each other.”
“I know, Miss Gu. You’re the kindest person on earth!” Lu Manman played along.
“Of course!” Gu Xin smiled proudly, but then suddenly changed her tone. She asked sadly, “Manman, are you really alright?”
Lu Manman was used to her antics. “It’s really nothing. Just focus on preparing for your wedding.”
“Then, I believe you.” Gu Xin smiled.
What a naive woman.
“I’m hanging up.” Lu Manman was ready to hang up.
“By the way.” Gu Xin suddenly stopped her. “Was Di An hurt today?”
“What happened?”
“It’s a long story.” Gu Xin was at a loss for words.
At this point, Di Yi walked over from the washroom.
“Is it serious?”
“I don’t know. Why don’t you call him yourself? I’m hanging up.” With that, she hung up.
Lu Manman looked at her cell phone and furrowed her brows.
“I’m better than Wen Yun?” Mo Yuanxiu asked.
Lu Manman looked at him. “Any man would be better than Wen Yun.”
“Didn’t you love him a lot in the past?”
“I was blind.”
Mo Yuanxiu looked at her silently.
At this time, the car arrived at the destination: Silver Restaurant.
The two of them got off, and Qin Ao followed closely behind. The service staff guided the three of them into the private room.
There was a huge table full of food. Lu Manman felt that Mo Yuanxiu was such a wasteful person that he would be struck by lightning one day.
They ate slowly at the dining table.
She really did not have much of an appet.i.te and thus ate very little.
She looked up at Mo Yuanxiu as he ate elegantly without making a sound. He did not make a single sound while eating, seemingly very n.o.ble and graceful.
This guy always seemed to have a strange aristocratic air about him. She wondered where he got it from.
But upon closer inspection, she realized that he did not look too good under the bright lights. He seemed a little pale and sickly, and even his lips were turning a little purple. However, he appeared so nonchalant, and it seemed like there was nothing wrong with him at all. In fact, it didn’t seem like he was ill at all.
