Chapter 240 - Sure he wasn't just trying to seduce her? (1)
Edited by: Lulu

Red wine was all over Lin Tiantian, and her delicate hairdo and makeup were all ruined. Shaking from anger, she couldn’t help but scold the servant angrily.

Nevertheless, the minute that she started, her voice surprised even herself.

Her sweet and melodious voice from the past had switched back.

When she had the support of the halo, her voice was modified and became melodious. Even when she was scolding someone out of anger, it would make others feet that she was saying it in a very delicate way. It would make others be on her side and make them believe that it was the other party’s fault.

Now that the last of the halo had gone back to Ning Zhi and her voice had returned to its original state, her voice when she was angry was scraping to the ears. Thus, many guests turned to look at her.

Lin Tiantian couldn’t care less about the looks of the others. She saw that the jade that she had been wearing around her neck had fallen on the floor and cracked.

Lin Tiantian was stunned. She quickly bent down to pick up the pieces, but she was not able to put the shattered jade back together.

That meant that she would no longer be able to steal Ning Zhi’s halo.

Lu Shenyuan removed his jacket and put it over Lin Tiantian. “I’ll buy you a new necklace. Your clothes are soiled. Go change into a new set and clean up your hair and face.”

Lu Shenyuan didn’t sound very happy, but he still sounded doting when he talked. Many looked at them enviously.

How was Lin Tiantian able to marry the First Young Master Lu?

Lin Tiantian looked at Lu Shenyuan, touched. Even though she had returned to her old self, Lu Shenyuan didn’t resent her and was doting as he had always been.

“Shenyuan.” Lin Tiantian’s original voice was a little hoarse and a little thick. It was not like her melodious voice in the past. When she said Lu Shenyuan’s name delicately, it just sounded awkward and fake.

Lu Shenyuan’s eyes dimmed a little. “I’ll have someone take you back first.”

Lin Tiantian left the banquet with the shattered jade.

Ning Zhi saw that Lu Shenyuan’s look remained unchanged. He continued to listen to the elders talking or chatted with guests who had walked up to him. She looked away. It was obvious that Lu Shenyuan was someone who could hide his feelings well.

During the banquet, Old Mrs. Song would bring Ning Zhi and Lu Jue with her everywhere she went. The guests could see the joy on her face. They would praise the two young ones nonstop, which made the old lady even happier.

Before she turned in, Old Mrs. Song asked her daughter Song Ya, “I can tell that Xiao Jue had become much better. I’ve talked to him a few times, and he was responsive all the time. I can also tell that there is a tight bond between himself and Ning Zhi. What are you and Zhou Dong’s plans as Xiao Jue gets better and better?”

Mother Lu, too, had had interactions with Lu Jue recently. Even though most of the time she was the one talking, he was listening and showed some reactions from time to time. Albeit not consistent, those instances were, nevertheless, improvements. Something that was unimaginable to her in the past.

“Mom, you mean……” Mother Lu hesitated.

“I was against the idea of you adopting another child in the past. Now that both of them are grown and Shenyuan had also studied management, it would be inevitable for him to have ideas later on.”

Old Mrs. Song had been around the block a few times, and she was good at reading people. Lu Shenyuan was getting harder and harder to read, and she worried that Lu Jue, her docile grandson, would end up with the shorter end of the stick in the future.

It was true that Grandma Sung did not remember Ning Zhi. Everything was blurry when she was having her episode. Plus, after all these years, she could barely remember what happened then. Nevertheless, she liked Ning Zhi a lot, and subconsciously, she had grown apart from Lu Shenyuan, her older grandson.
