Chapter 138 Eating Too Much Causes Cancer

After searching around, she found no news about Lu Yunxi getting married or engaged, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, saying to him, "Brother Lu is really interesting. He clearly doesn't have a fiancée, but he insists he does."

She thought she was very clever, but little did she know that her statement was actually quite foolish.

If Lu Yunxi truly doesn't have a fiancée, then he's deliberately lying to you, and his purpose is self-evident. If Lu Yunxi does have a fiancée, then your statement is even more inappropriate.

So regardless of whether the other person actually has it or not, these words should not have come out of Ran Wenqi's mouth.

Lu Yunxi then looked at her with a half-smile, "Miss Ran, how can you be so sure?"

After Ran Wenqi said those words, she regretted it, realizing that she had made a mistake by being too hasty. She immediately lowered her head, looking shy again.

"I was just guessing, Brother Lu, please don't be angry. It's just that I haven't seen your wife for the past two days, so I thought..."

"There are many things you don't know." His voice was indifferent, and his expression was aloof.

Ran Wenqi felt a chill run down her spine; she had a bad feeling that Lu Yunxi didn't like her anymore.

But why?

I took her out for a trip today, so why did this happen all of a sudden?

Ran's parents also sensed something was wrong, sighed, and didn't know what to say.

Lu Yunxi is indeed outstanding, but they all know their daughter's true worth. Besides, the Lu family doesn't know the Zhang family as well as they do. The in-laws of wealthy families are the most difficult to please.

Therefore, the Zhang family is still their best choice.

But Zhang Liangzhi doesn't seem to have any feelings for his own daughter.

Ran Wenqi didn't share the same self-perception as her parents. After playing today, she increasingly believed that Lu Yunxi had taken a liking to her.

"Dinner's ready!" Lu Qianqian shouted at the top of her lungs, "We're having barbecue and hot pot on the second-floor terrace!"

Rong Changqing was the first to walk up to her and reach out to hold her hand: "You've worked hard."

Lu Qianqian felt very comfortable hearing this and smiled sweetly at him: "If you think I'm working hard, give me a couple more slices of meat later."

"Okay." Rong Changqing readily agreed, and the two went upstairs sweetly. A group of guests were left behind, who could only follow them to the second-floor terrace.

Zhang Liangzhi led his parents, and his parents then led the Ran family, which avoided any awkwardness.

After all, Rong Changqing had never invited outsiders to his home for dinner, and Lu Yunxi and Zhang Liangzhi had never treated him as a guest, nor did they ever need him to entertain them, so they completely forgot about this matter.

Lu Qianqian was also brainwashed by his smile and went upstairs foolishly, without even helping to carry the dishes.

The chubby boy, however, turned his grief into strength, running around happily with the plate in his arms.

"Godmother, I want to eat this, eat this, and this too."

"Okay." Lu Qianqian nodded, and to soothe his wounded heart, she would grant his every wish. "You can sit next to me. I'll grill whatever you want to eat later."

The chubby boy nodded happily and sat down directly to Lu Qianqian's right.

Seeing this, Xiao Chengcheng sat down on Lu Qianqian's left without making a sound.

However, Rong Changqing, who had initially brought Lu Qianqian upstairs, found himself without a seat. After a moment of contemplation, he picked up his son and threw him into the seat next to him, then swiftly seized the seat to Lu Qianqian's left.

Xiao Chengcheng: "..."

Is there no fatherly love left?

The table was large, and Lu Yunxi sat to Xiao Chengcheng's left, while Zhang Liangzhi sat to Xiao Pangdun's right.

Then, across from them were the Ran family of three and the Zhang family's parents.

They sat at opposite ends of the whiteboard and redboard, thankfully there were two baking trays, so everyone could eat.

Because the Ran family and the Zhang family had been friends for decades, they quickly restored their friendly relationship. Lu Qianqian's purpose of inviting them to dinner was also achieved, and she happily grilled meat for the child.

However, Rong Changqing took charge of grilling meat for her and even fed her, saying, "Qianqian, open your mouth."

"Ah..." Lu Qianqian obediently opened her mouth. In front of everyone, her face was no longer red, she was no longer shy, and she ate much more smoothly.

This scene made Ran Wenqi blush. She looked up at Lu Yunxi, wanting to hand her the meat she had just grilled, but she was afraid that Lu Yunxi would refuse, which made her very embarrassed.

Suddenly, Lu Yunxi picked up a skewer of grilled meat. Ran Wenqi gasped in surprise, her eyes filled with anticipation, but she watched helplessly as he handed the meat to Xiao Chengcheng.

Ran Wenqi: "..."

Isn't she cuter than a child? Why not give her a skewer?

Lu Yunxi not only gave the meat to Xiao Chengcheng, but also only looked at him: "Xiao Chengcheng, your parents don't love you, but Uncle Lu will love you."

Xiao Chengcheng looked at Lu Yunxi with a wronged expression; he felt bitter inside.

His father only had eyes for Lu Qianqian, and Lu Qianqian only had eyes for the chubby boy!

Is he still their favorite child?

He took a bite of the meat skewer in a fit of grief and indignation, deciding to share half of his bed with Uncle Lu tonight.

Ran Wenqi screamed inwardly: Men are all big pigs! They're so nice to her during the day, but they ignore her at night?

Mad.

She looked at Lu Qianqian and Rong Changqing, who were constantly showing off their affection, and was very angry.

So, inviting her to dinner was just a way to show off?

"Qiqi, why aren't you eating?" Ran's mother asked when she saw that Qiqi wasn't eating.

Ran Wenqi said, "When dieting at night, you can't eat anything too greasy, and things like barbecue can cause cancer if you eat too much of them."

"..."

The whole place fell silent.

Everyone looked at her with complicated expressions.

Ran Wenqi realized she had said the wrong thing once again, lowered her head, and blushed.

She really didn't mean it; she just said whatever came to mind.

“Cough cough…” Lu Qianqian broke the silence and said, “The carcinogen is the kind that’s grilled over charcoal, and you only have a high chance of getting cancer if you eat it every day. This kind of electric grill is much safer, and besides, most people only eat it occasionally.”

The elders finally regained their composure, including the chubby boy who had stopped eating earlier, and now he could finally eat without worry.

Ran Wenqi blushed even more and lowered her head in embarrassment, feeling increasingly disliked Lu Qianqian.

Isn't she saying all this just to show off her knowledge and erudition? To make herself look good in comparison? How despicable!

As expected, these wealthy ladies were not as simple-minded as they seemed. The more resentful they felt, the more they spoke up, "By the way, when did the second young master and his wife get married? Nobody outside knows about it."

But in her heart she was thinking: Who is Young Master Rong? He's not someone an ordinary woman can marry. He might be a kept woman. She's going to expose this secret and make things difficult for him!
