Xu Jiaojiao frowned and looked at Lu Huan with a face full of question marks.

‘What the hell? When did 1 become your good friend?’

“Mm.” Qi Shenbai hummed. He did not look at Lu Huan and did not even bother to greet her.

Although Qi Shenbai’s attitude was so cold, Lu Huan had no intention of backing off. Instead, she continued, “You’re Jiaojiao’s friend, right? We met last time at Jiaojiao’s house.”

Lu Huan observed Qi Shenbai’s expression and thought that such a mysterious man would never fall for Xu Jiaojiao. He was probably playing along with Xu Jiaojiao for some other reason.

“What are you trying to do?” Xu Jiaojiao’s voice was filled with obvious displeasure.

Qi Shenbai looked at the frowning Xu Jiaojiao and his eyes moved slightly. In the next second, Xu Jiao jiao grabbed his well-defined hand as if she was declaring her ownership of him. Her expression was arrogant as she said, “The two of us have already registered our marriage. He’s my husband now. Do you have anything else to say?”

This time, not only was Lu Huan stunned, even Qi Shenbai was a little taken aback. Looking at his interlocked fingers, the gloominess in his heart was mostly dispelled. Unbeknownst to him, the corners of his mouth actually curled into a faint smile.

“I’m just asking. Why are you angry? It’s really baffling…” Lu Huan was stunned at first, but she quickly retorted.

She did not know why the usually cowardly Xu Jiaojiao had become so unyielding today.

It was simply… strange.

“You said that the two of you are already married, but I’ve never seen you introduce him. Are you not taking him seriously, or are you worried that someone will snatch your husband away? It’s too rude not to even introduce him.”

The instigation in her words was obvious. She wanted Qi Shenbai to bear a grudge and quarrel with Xu Jiaojiao.

Just as Xu Jiaojiao was about to retort, Qi Shenbai said, “I don’t have to be introduced. There’s no need for me to explain my identity to you. All you need to know is that I’m Xu Jiaojiao’s husband.”

His voice was magnetic and deep, and it sounded so alluring yet bone-chilling. Only when he said the words ‘Xu Jiaojiao’ did it sound a little gentle.

He looked at Lu Huan with a cold gaze. The displeasure in his eyes was obvious.

Lu Huan felt a chill run down her spine as he stared at her. She did not know what to do.

Qi Shenbai ignored her. He pulled Xu Jiaojiao’s hand and got into the car. When he passed by Lu Huan, he did not even bother to look at her.

Lu Huan watched helplessly as the luxury car drove away until it disappeared at the end of the road. When she came back to her senses, she gritted her teeth fiercely. “Who do you think you are? A woman who was dumped by my brother is not worthy of such a good husband!”

The Lu family’s mansion was magnificent.

The old matriarch lay on an embroidered pillow, holding a blue and white teacup in her hand.

She took a sip of the fragrant tea and glanced at the young man who was walking slowly downstairs.

“After all that’s happened, how are you still not giving up?”

The old lady spoke up suddenly.

When Lu Zhuo heard this, a trace of anger flashed across his eyes. He subconsciously clenched his hand in his pocket into a fist.

“Back then, I objected to this marriage with all my might, but you insisted. Now, you’re asking me to let go. Why? What right do you have?”

Old Mrs. Lu’s face was filled with pity as she sighed softly.

“I know you resent me. I was the one who broke you and Bai Mengyao up. Even without Xu Jiaojiao, there’s still an insurmountable gap between you and that girl. It’s impossible for the family to accept her. You still have to recognize the truth.”

There was a hint of mania on Lu Zhuo’s face. He took two steps forward and said coldly, “Grandma, you must have a way, right? You and Old Mrs. Xu have been best friends for decades. Please help me again and think of another way, okay?”

Old Mrs. Lu placed the blue and white teacup on the table with a clang. Her expression clearly said, ‘You deserved this.’

“Grandma.” Lu Zhuo was still unwilling to give up. He had never realized that he was so stubborn and insistent. He wanted to speak again, but the old lady waved at him.

“Back then, in order to keep my promise, I tried my best to matchmake you and Xu Jiaojiao. Now that the matter has been settled and the engagement has been annulled, it seems the two of you are simply not fated to be together. There’s no need to force it. Perhaps there’s a silver lining. This is also a good thing.”

Lu Zhuo’s brows were tightly knitted together. He did not quite understand what his grandmother meant.

Old Mrs. Qi smirked. “You silly child, why do you think the Xu Family sent Xu Jiaojiao away back then? Was she really sick?”

“What else would it be?” Lu Zhuo sensed that she was about to reveal an old secret, and he felt his heart jump to his throat. He never could understand what the Xu family was trying to do..
