Song Zixiu nodded with certainty.

"Stop pretending to be pitiful. You clearly know that I'm not carrying you on my back, so why shouldn't I do something like that? You really don't need to act like that."

Song Zixiu also knew that his presence would cause the atmosphere to turn awkward, but he couldn't help it.

"Alright, Zi Xiu, I'll come back early. Don't be unhappy anymore."

Song Zixiu continued to feign pity, "Lu Kewei, I feel that you don't have any self-awareness that you should be carrying your husband to meet other men."

Lu Kewei stared at him without saying a word.

The address that Xiao Shixian gave to Lu Kewei was in a secluded area. When he got to the intersection, he was put down by the driver, saying that he couldn't get in. It was only when he reached the end of the alleyway that he realized there was a cave. There was a courtyard that seemed to have existed there for a long time.

As soon as Lu Kewei entered the door, he called out Xiao Shixian's name. A waiter brought her in. The interior was decorated with small bridges and flowing water. It was as if they had entered the ancient era. The waiter brought her to a room, pushed open the door, went around a screen and saw Xiao Shixian kneeling inside.

The waiter greeted Xiao Shixian and left immediately.

Lu Kangwei sat across Xiao Shixian. Xiao Shixian quickly placed a cup of tea in front of Lu Kangwei and said, "The new Dragon Well tastes pretty good. Try it on."

As soon as he picked up the cup, a fragrant aroma immediately wafted into his nose.

Xiao Shixian finally said with a slightly relaxed tone, "At first, I thought you would reject me asking you out. I can't ask her to help me with Rudi, after all, this kind of thing can be done once, and I can't let others think that she is abusing her power." He paused before continuing, "I was surprised that you came, so can I understand that you've already agreed to my previous request?"

Lu Kewei drank a few more mouthfuls of tea without saying a word. He deliberately kept Xiao Shixian in suspense, not wanting to make him feel proud.

"As you wish. I have indeed agreed to your request, but it is not what I want. It is my aunt who called me to come with you to see Grandma Xiao."

Xiao Shixian nodded in understanding. He was also surprised by the change in Lu Kewei's attitude and explained it all. "It seems that your aunt has been blaming herself all these years and did not come out."

The reason my aunt asked me to agree to your request is definitely not because you think she's blaming herself. She just thinks that Uncle Xiao has already been gone for so many years and that she should go visit your grandmother on his behalf, so she should show her filial piety. But this place really hurt her deeply, and she didn't want to come back, so she told me to go. "

Xiao Shixian nodded, but he did not seem surprised.

After the two of them drank a few cups of tea, Xiao Shixian said, "Since we have made an agreement, I will inform you once I've made my arrangements. I will send someone to pick you up then."

He felt that his purpose for meeting with him today had already been accomplished, so he quickly said, "I think we'll stop here for today. If there's nothing else, I'll head back first."

However, Xiao Shixian said, "Other than the tea here, the tea is also pretty good. I've just ordered a few that I think are pretty good. Wait a moment, they should be arriving soon."

Just as he was about to say there was no need to be polite, the tea was served by the waiter. Seeing that it looked good, he sat back down and did not try to eat again. Just as Xiao Shixian had said, the taste was quite good. She couldn't help but eat a few more.

Xiao Shixian looked at the way Lu Kewei was eating. He bit his lips like a little rabbit, which made him want to laugh.

When he saw that his eyes were full of smiles, he was slightly embarrassed. She always liked to eat sweet foods, and it had been a long time since she had had such delicious tea, so she naturally couldn't help but eat more.

Xiao Shixian retracted his gaze and lowered his head to drink his tea, pretending that he did not see Lu Kewei's expression just now.

Although Xiao Shixian did it, Lu Kangwei still felt awkward and didn't eat much.

The two sat there for a while longer, unable to find anything to say, before they left. Lu Kangwei left the room before Xiao Shixian, not knowing that Xiao Shixian had spoken a few words to the waiter behind her.

As the two of them walked out of the three-way courtyard, Xiao Shixian's chauffeur drove over, so Xiao Shixian insisted on sending Lu Kewei home. Lu Kangwei couldn't refuse him, so he followed him into the car. Some people were like this. They had a natural disposition that allowed them to not get angry, and even those around them had no choice but to listen obediently.

However, after the two of them got on the car, the driver didn't immediately drive away. Just as Lu Kewei couldn't help but ask, a waiter came out with a packed tea and served it through the open window.

Lu Kewei got more and more embarrassed, but Xiao Shixian just said lightly, "Take it back, I also saw you eating happily."

While Lu Kewei was holding onto a tray of tea, he felt that the food was exceptionally hot.

Soon, they arrived at the apartment. Xiao Shixian told Lu Kewei to wait for his call. Lu Zhiwei nodded and got off the car to bid farewell. He did not know that Xiao Shixian was looking at her thoughtfully.

After returning home, Song Qingying was the first to discover the item in Lu Kangwei's hand. She immediately took it and started to eat. Soon after, the scene changed to Lu Ke and Song Qingying sitting next to the tea table, watching television as they ate tea.

Song Qingying was still very excited as she told Lu Kewei, "Mom, dad likes to buy tea for me too. I'll know when I see the logo on my bag."

Lu Kewei was at a loss for words. He had to admit that the mother and daughter pair's tastes were quite similar.

After a while, Song Zixiu, who was still busy at home during the weekend, walked out of the study. When he saw Lu Kewei, he gave him a look that made me feel very dissatisfied, causing Lu Kewei to not know whether to laugh or cry.

When the two of them had a chance to be alone, Lu Kewei probably told him what he had said to Xiao Shixian today. After Song Zixiu finished listening, he was clearly unhappy. He actually suggested, "It's not good if I go on the day you are really going to the Xiao family, but I can't be at ease with you alone. I want Gu Zixi to not accompany you there, right?"

Lu Ke Wei laughed, "Song Zi Xiu, you don't have to worry so much. The Xiao family is not a dragon, pond or tiger cave, and I am not a child."

Song Zixiu thought for a while, restrained himself from arguing with her, and then said: "If you like the tea in this house, I can buy it for you at any time. It's fine if you ask their family to send it over, but don't eat the things that Xiao Shixian packed next time."

He walked up to Song Zixiu, stood on his tiptoes and pinched his face, intentionally saying, "Song Zixiu, I didn't think that you would be so easily jealous. But I actually feel that your appearance is so cute. Are you really a man in his thirties?"

Song Zixiu pulled her hand away and put on a ferocious look, "Lu Kewei, stop talking about me. Why don't you think about who forced me into this state?"

Song Zixiu bit her lips to stop her laughter, but the two people's kiss ended with Song Qingying's scream.

Xiao Shixian was very efficient, he said that he would bring Lu Kewei to the Xiao family the next night.

Just as Lu Kewei was about to get off work that day, he received a message from Xiao Shixian waiting for her downstairs. She immediately bid farewell to Lin Jing who was in the same office and packed her things before leaving.

As soon as he walked out of the building, he saw Xiao Shixian and Judy chatting in front of a Cadillac. She couldn't help but slow down her pace, not wanting to interrupt their conversation.

Xiao Shixian quickly saw Lu Kewei. After greeting Judy, Judy also looked over with a smile and greeted him.

Judy didn't say anything more and immediately said goodbye to the two and left.

Seeing that Judy had left and was getting into the car with Xiao Shixian, Lu Kexin couldn't help but ask curiously, "When did you and Judy get to know each other?"

Xiao Shixian replied, "We graduated from the same diplomatic school. I'm her senior."

It could be seen that Judy was looking at Xiao Shixian with love in her eyes. Now that she heard Xiao Shixian say this, she couldn't help but think of a story about how her junior apprentice sister had a crush on her senior brother. However, she could also imagine that Xiao Shixian must have been an influential figure in the school when he was still in school.

Xiao Shixian could roughly see the strange expression on Lu Kewei's face. He thought of something and immediately said, "Stop thinking so much. Rui Di and I are already in our thirties, not in our teens."

Lu Kewei smiled, trying to stop the wild thoughts from running through his mind.

When the car drove into the courtyard, it gave off the strange feeling of going to Ning Ran's house for the first time. Just like Grandma Liu, the car looked left and right, passing by a few guards before finally stopping in front of a house that seemed to be very old.

Xiao Shixian said to Lu Kewei, "When the time comes, act accordingly. I'll send you back after you have a talk with my grandmother."

Lu Kewei was indeed a little scared, but when he thought of Qin Zheng's words, he could only bite the bullet and bite the bullet.

Xiao Shixian brought Lu Kewei into the old house, asked an aunt and found out that Old Madam Xiao was in the garden, then walked away. Although this house was very large and had quite a few people, it was very quiet, as if there was no one inside.

Xiao Shixian was an old lady who was found in a greenhouse specially used to raise delicate orchids. She was sitting on a chair, carefully pruning a pot of rare orchids in front of her.

Xiao Shixian walked behind the old lady, lightly patted her shoulder and respectfully said: "Grandmother, I hope the person you met has arrived."

"I clearly said I didn't want to see it, but you just didn't listen. Your uncle has already been dead for so many years, and we no longer have any final connections with the Qin family. You don't need to do these things."

Lu Ke Wei had already expected that the Xiao family's old woman wouldn't like her, but he didn't expect her to tell Xiao Shixian that she didn't understand Xiao Shixian's persistence. He clearly didn't like it, but he still did it.

"Grandma, I've brought her. Can you talk to her?" Xiao Shixian said gently.

The old lady let go of the work in her hands and turned to look at Lu Kewei. She was already very old, and her eyes were unclear, but the moment she looked at Lu Kewei, her eyes suddenly lit up. In that moment, her eyes contained a lot of emotions.

"It's a clean and elegant girl." The old lady mumbled to herself, "Come over here, I can't talk to you from that far away."

Lu Kewei looked at Xiao Shixian subconsciously, then walked to stand beside the old lady.
