Chapter 543 - 541: Not Pursuing This Marriage
Jiang and Huai’s words were eloquent, imbued with a literate and rational demeanor that made people feel comfortable.
"No need for such words. Young Master Jiang saved Tongtong, and we are full of gratitude. It’s good for young men to be humble; they remain calm in adversity," Lu Qingyuan said, easing the atmosphere. "The dishes are ready. Come, try our Lu Family’s private recipes?"
Lu Qingyuan was very amicable, and Jiang and Huai nodded politely, graceful and composed, "Mr. Lu is too kind. We siblings are very pleased to have this honor!"
"Hey, I’m not that old. Just call me Uncle Lu!" Lu Qingyuan was approachable in daily life, and Jiang and Huai knew this well, but she was also keenly aware of his business accomplishments back then.
Such people are best approached with flattery. She smiled lightly, "Then, Uncle Lu, I wouldn’t mind forming this bond."
"What are you talking about!"
Everyone sat down at the table one by one. Due to Tu Yingying’s situation, Tu Meijiao and her husband remained silent, keeping to themselves.
Jiang Chao was focused on eating, while Jiang and Huai answered Lu Qingyuan’s questions one by one, maintaining politeness throughout.
"I heard that a good thing with that kid from the Zhu Family is about to happen for you, isn’t it?" Lu Qingyuan asked, clearly in a gossipy tone.
Jiang Chao immediately raised his head, eyebrows furrowed tightly, looking at his sister.
Jiang and Huai gave him a glance, then respectfully replied to Lu Qingyuan, "There’s not even a hint of that yet! Doctor Zhu is such an outstanding person; naturally, he should consider carefully and choose wisely."
"Sis, you’re not inferior to anyone!" Jiang Chao couldn’t help but say.
Jiang and Huai smiled awkwardly, and Lu Qingyuan said, "That’s the truth. I’ve heard about Miss Jiang’s reputation; a good fit for Zhu Yiming."
"Uncle Lu is joking. Doctor Zhu and I would rather be considered a burden!" Jiang and Huai responded courteously.
Li Siru couldn’t help but look up at her. The relationship between this woman and the Zhu Family was much like her own with the Lu Family. However, this woman seemed much smarter.
Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help but sigh, "Mrs. Zhu is eager to get a granddaughter-in-law and hold a great-grandson. You’re quite suitable, just depends on what that kid Zhu Yiming thinks."
"Yes, Grandma treats me very well!" Jiang and Huai replied with a smile.
Lu Qingyuan chuckled, "Already calling her Grandma, looks like there’s promise!"
"Sis?!" Jiang Chao grumbled unhappily from the side.
Jiang and Huai calmly responded, "Eat!"
Her demeanor was like a queen’s, and Jiang Chao didn’t dare rebut, lowering his head to continue eating.
"Nian Nian, eat more!" Ji Niandong kept adding food to Lu Sinian’s bowl.
Lu Sinian was eating happily, but couldn’t help saying, "Sister Tongtong, I’ve already eaten a lot, and I’m not in pain anymore!"
Little Bun proved he knew she was still worried about him!
"You’re constantly looking after him; you should eat too!" Lu Beichen silently added food to her bowl.
From the side, Jiang and Huai suddenly said, "President Lu’s family is truly loving and happy!" She glanced at Jiang Chao intentionally or unintentionally, "Really enviable!"
Little Bun heard people say that and felt proud; he couldn’t resist saying, "Sister, Uncle Zhu isn’t as good as my dad; be careful if you marry him!"
Jiang and Huai laughed slightly and couldn’t help asking, "Young Master, and Uncle Zhu so familiar? Do you think he’ll like me?"
"Sis!" Jiang Chao almost slammed his chopsticks on the table, "Today, coming to the Lu Family isn’t to discuss my marriage. Why haven’t I seen that Miss Tu?"
Jiang Chao got straight to the point, causing the eating guests to pause momentarily, before Jiang and Huai immediately said, "Apologies, everyone. My brother has been undisciplined since childhood, with a personality not serene enough to care about company matters. His heart only desires to join the entertainment industry. I only have this one brother, so naturally, I indulge him a bit. But he’s unlikely to achieve anything great, I’m afraid he’s not a match for Miss Tu. Today, we came..."
"Since you’re here, let’s eat first!" Lu Qingyuan said calmly.
