Chapter 18 - The Love is as Deep as the Ocean (3)

Lu Li has been lovingly holding Chi Chenyan’s arm all the way, but when they arrived at the Chi Mansion, she immediately let go of Chi Chenyan’s arm as soon as they entered the door: “Grandma!”

Chi Chenyan glanced at his empty arms.

Grandma Chi sat on the sofa with a blanket on her legs. When she saw Lu Li, she smiled and stretched out her hand: “Lu Li.”

Lu Li took Grandma Chi’s hand and sat down beside her affectionately.

Since she was a child, her father has been busy at work, and her mother was busy trying to please her father while fighting wits with her two half-brothers so she was left alone to the housekeepers and nanny’s care. After Lu Li married in the Chi family, it was the first time that she felt the care of a female elder.

Grandma Chi saw that there was gauze on Lu Li's forehead, and her face was full of worry: "Knowing that you were in a car accident scared me to death. How is it, is there any damage?”

Lu Li hugged Grandma Chi’s arm and smiled: “No, just a little injury.”

Chi Chenyan came in behind Lu Li and called, “Grandma.”

Lu Li took her bag from Chi Chenyan: “Grandma, I saw this brooch the last time that I visited the mall. I saw this brooch and bought it right away. Do you like it?”

Grandma Chi nodded: “Yes, yes.”

Today, the Chi Mansion is quite lively. Chi Chenyan and Lu Li are present, and the other elders and juniors are also present.

As soon as Lu Li arrived, she became busy interacting with Grandma Chi. Chi Chenyan sat on another sofa, and the others did not think that something was wrong.

Chi Chenyan looked at his grandmother that was coaxing Lu Li like an ordinary old lady.

He had never known before, but no he has personally experienced Lu Li sweet-speaking ability and suddenly found the answer.

Before dinner, a few people played games, but no one dared to invite Chi Chenyan.

Those who can still stay in the Chi Mansion today are basically considered to be safe and defeated. But who would dare to pat their chest and guarantee that the turmoil a few years ago did not give birth to thoughts that they shouldn’t have?

Now that Chi Chenyan holds the entire company in one hand, as well as having a father-in-law like Lu Hengrong, whether the person is an elder or a junior, they would feel embarrassed.

Lu Li talked with Grandma Chi for a long time, and finally remembered that she seemed to have talked to grandma and forgot her husband.

“Where is my husband?” She turned her head to look.

Grandma Chi heard the words ‘my husband’ coming from Lu Li’s mouth, and her face was obviously surprised.

Although the two of them behaved very well every time Chi Chenyan brought Lu Li over, she was not a dim-eyed old lady. She had seen many things in her life and knew that the intimacy between the two was just an act presented to her. And although she doesn’t go online often, it doesn’t mean that she is too old to know things that happens online. She knows about the news on the internet.

But now Lu Li’s phrase ‘my husband’ sounded completely natural without any trace of acting.

The aunt sitting on the side hurriedly answered: “Chenyan seemed to have gone outside just now.”

Lu Li acted like a baby: “Grandma, I’ll find him and let him chat with you, okay?”

Grandma Chi patted Lu Li’s hand. Although she was puzzled, she nodded: “Go.”

Lu Li walked out of the house and saw that not far away, Chi Chenyan was holding a watering can in his hands and watering the plants in the garden.

She was about to rush to have a couple watering the plants together but someone passed by, and was stunned to see Lu Li.

Lu Li’s eyes on her husband’s back were blocked by the unexpected guest. 

She couldn’t help but frown.

The person blocking her sight is Chi Xin.

Lu Li then looked down and frowned even more when she saw the watering can in Chi Xin’s hand.

Chi Xin is Chi Chenyan’s cousin, but they are not related by blood.

Chi Chenyan’s aunt and uncle had a second marriage, and Chi Xin is the daughter brought over by Chi Chenyan’s aunt. Originally named Xu, her mother changed her surname to Chi after she married into the Chi family.

Chi Xin did not seem to expect to see Lu Li appear here and a slightly stubborn smile appeared on her face, and she said, “Cousin.”

Lu Li gave an ‘En’ and looked at Chi Xin’s too friendly look.

A woman’s instinct are extremely accurate. She can easily see that this unrelated cousin is interested in Chi Chenyan.

She can only blame her husband’s look that can attract bees and butterflies.

It’s just that Chi Xin just like to peek at her husband before, but now she dared to take a direct action.

Lu Li raised her brow: “Going to water the plants?”

Chi Xin held the watering can and lowered her head: “Yes.”

Lu Li: “Want to be with your cousin?”

Chi Xin did not seem to expect Lu Li to ask back so bluntly. She raised her head and said, “Ah?”

She blushed and still bit her lip as she replied, “Yes.”

Lu Li laughed. She couldn’t help but rub salt against the wound to this Chi Xin who is suspected of seducing her husband. “You have no blood relationship with my husband. You are already so old and he is married. Don’t you know how to avoid suspicion?”

“Everyone is inside but you ran outside to water the plants with him and make connections?”

“What ulterior motive do you have against my husband?”

Chi Xin took a step back, her shock was evident on her face.

Everyone knows that Chi Chenyan and Lu Li married for the benefit of their families. Everyone sees that they do not get along after marriage.

Lu Li would definitely not care who Chi Chenyan was watering flowers with.

At this time, Lu Li was domineering, as if she had been raised from a young age to an older lady. Chi Xin’s mother remarried into the Chi family halfway. She clearly knew that she would never be able to learn Lu Li’s aura.

But she also has her own strengths. Chi Xin’s eyes were red, hung her head down, her voice was as small as a mosquito’s and sounded extremely aggrieved: “You are mistaken. I, I did not.”

“I just wanted to spend some time with my cousin. We have loved watering plants together since we were young. I did not treat my cousin… My cousin and I are really innocent, and I did it on my own initiative. My cousin and I really doesn’t have anything. We have nothing, nothing…”

She said ambiguously, clearly speaking of innocence, but it sounded like there is really something going on with Chi Chenyan. Watering the plants since childhood not only reflects the good relationship between her and Chi Chenyan, but also reveals the fact that she met him earlier and was a childhood sweetheart.

The white lotus flower couldn’t help but provoke the original wife.

Chi Xin knew that Lu Li, the seemingly domineering eldest lady, did not actually have good temperament, and she would not tolerate the ambiguity between her husband and another woman.

Even if the husband is indifferent.

And it is because of this indifference and alienation that they don’t understand each other, so they easily believe what others say.

She thought that she would be slapped.

Only in this way can she be the victim of bullying.

It was just watering plants. Lu Li was the one who made trouble without reason, not her.

Chi Xin closed her eyes, with a tear running down her cheek and hung on her chin.

Lu Li looked at Chi Xin’s tears with disgust.

“Of course you have nothing to do with my husband.” There was no trace of anger in her tone.

Chi Xin who was in tears did not expect Lu Li to be so calm. She looked up and saw Lu Li holding her hand and squinting at her.

Lu Li looked at her sarcastically: “How about we make it clear? My husband and I are now in love with each other and are husband and wife. Do you still want to have a relationship with him?”
