Chapter 436 The undercurrent is surging
After work, Lu Xingchen called Lu Yisen and said that he was at a convenience store near her company.
When Lu Xingchen looked over, he saw Lu Yisen and Li Zhen, one young and one adult, sitting behind the floor-to-ceiling window of the convenience store eating ice cream.
Seeing her coming, Ethan Lu immediately raised his hand to greet her, and Li Zhen, who was facing away from her, looked back with a hint of surprise on his face, and seeing Lu Xingchen walking straight to the convenience store, he turned his head to look at Ethan Lu.
Ethan Lu responded directly to his gaze and said, “You’re welcome, just consider it a return gift for playing football with me.”
This kid is smart. Li Zhen couldn't help but want to reach out and touch his head. Lu Yisen drank juice and dodged backwards. Li Zhen said to him before Lu Xingchen came: "What else do you want to play? Just tell me, and don't be polite to me."
Lu Xingchen smiled and gestured to Chen Ma at the side, then walked in and sat next to Lu Yisen. Seeing that he was sweating and his face was red, he asked, "What did you do just now?"
Ethan Lu: “Play football.”
Playing football? Lu Xingchen couldn't help but glance at Li Zhen, who didn't seem to be sweating. Isn't President Li busy? Why did he come to play ball with the child?
Li Zhen explained: "While we were waiting for you, we played football together. Do you want to eat something?"
Looking at the juice and ice cream on the table, Lu Xingchen shook his head, turned around and asked Ethan Lu, “What do you want to eat tonight?”
Ethan Lu immediately looked at Li Zhen, “Uncle said, go buy some food and cook for us, he can cook.”
Li Zhen wanted to give Lu Yisen a thumbs up. He just told him something about himself when his grandmother was sick, and mentioned that he could cook. This kid was so good at cooking. Li Zhen subconsciously looked at Lu Xingchen.
You know, even after the two of them went to work in Wenquan Mountain together, Lu Xingchen did not relax any policies for him, so he did not get any opportunities from her, but Lu Ethan opened a big way for him.
But Lu Xingchen said to Lu Yisen: “Uncle is very busy.”
Li Zhen added directly, "I'm not busy. Let's go buy groceries together later. I've agreed with Yisen."
It’s agreed... Lu Xingchen looked at Li Zhen with contempt in her eyes. Don’t think she doesn’t know what he is planning?
Seeing her like this, Ethan Lu and Li Zhen suddenly spoke at the same time, “If you don’t agree, then forget it.”
After saying that, the big and the small looked at each other again.
Lu Xingchen said unhappily, "Since you have already agreed, it would seem petty if I say no."
Ethan Lu immediately wanted to high-five Li Zhen, but this was a bit too complacent, and he flattered Lu Xingchen and said, “Sister, I’ll go pick out a delicious ice cream for you.”
Seeing him slip down from the chair, Li Zhen said unhappily, "You call her sister, but you call me uncle. Does that mean we are of different generations?"
Ethan Lu turned around and gave him a grimace, then ran to the freezer to choose ice cream.
Li Zhen then asked Lu Xingchen, "Is the old lady feeling better?"
Lu Xingchen shook his head, "Whether he can wake up is still a question."
Li Zhen: "I heard from Yisen that the camera he gave to grandma is missing. Did someone take it?"
Lu Xingchen was a little confused. Lu Yisen was a smart and defensive child who rarely told people these things. Could it be because Li Zhen was also present when they had dinner at the old house last time?
“Ethan Lu even told you these things?”
"He seemed quite insecure. He might be worried that you wouldn't want him anymore after grandma passed away. So I shared some of my childhood stories with him, and he reciprocated the favor."
"..." He was quite good at winning over the child, so Lu Xingchen answered his question and said, "The camera has been found. Yang Wenqi went to see the old lady on the day of the accident. The old lady said that the camera was broken, so she asked her to take it out and help her fix it. She asked the driver to deliver it two days ago."
"There should be someone special in the old house to do this kind of thing, right? Why would the old lady entrust it to a pregnant woman?" Li Zhen suddenly said this.
Lu Xingchen looked at him, "What... do you want to say?"
Li Zhen: "I just think it's a bit strange. After the old lady was hospitalized, Yisen didn't live with Chairman Lu, but was sent to you instead. This decision should have been made by the old lady, right?"
Lu Xingchen had to say that he was sharp, "You... have gained experience in handling the Feng family's affairs."
You are bringing up something that is not relevant. Are you deliberately mocking him?
Li Zhen said with a displeased smile, "I really know I was wrong, but I'm not asking you to let me go, just keep pushing me until you feel relieved."
She wasn't that interested, Lu Xingchen glanced at him with disdain.
Li Zhen continued, "However, it is true that I personally investigated the Feng family, and I was worried that you would fall into that dangerous situation, so I privately investigated some things in the Lu family's old house. At the same time, I also know that you have been looking for Chu Zeyan's people to investigate some things recently."
Li Zhen wanted to say that she actually looked for Chu Zeyan instead of him, which made him very unhappy, but he didn't dare to.
However, Lu Xingchen was very surprised that Li Zhen was investigating the Lu family's old house.
Li Zhen saw that she was curious and said, "Besides, I found out some things. Do you want to listen to them?"
“Sister, the ice cream is here.” Ethan Lu’s return interrupted their conversation, and they looked at each other and stopped talking.
Li Zhen actually felt that Ethan Lu came back at the right time, as Lu Xingchen must be curious about what he had found out, and he could use this opportunity to find her again.
Lu Xingchen took the ice cream from Ethan Lu, “Thank you.”
The three of them sat down to eat and then set off to the supermarket.
Lu Xingchen was in charge of pushing the cart, while Li Zhen asked Lu Yisen about his preferences while shopping for ingredients with him.
Although Ethan Lu looks like a mixed-race child, Lu Xingchen is tall, with deep facial features and three-dimensional and full bones, some people still think that Ethan Lu is her and Li Zhen’s child.
In addition, the three of them all have outstanding looks, which attracts the attention of people around them from time to time.
Some even enthusiastically asked them: "This is your child, he is so handsome. Oh, his mother is also a mixed-race, right?"
Lu Xingchen wanted to say no.
Li Zhen was very pleased and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
Lu Xingchen and Lu Yisen looked at him at the same time, and he said to him calmly: “When others praise you for your good looks, you should say thank you.”
Is his focus on painting here? Lu Xingchen and Lu Yisen ignored him at the same time and pushed the cart forward together.
Li Zhen followed Ethan Lu and just walked to the meat cabinet. He put his arm around his little shoulder and said, "Your mother likes braised spareribs. Let's buy some spareribs."
"..." Lu Xingchen wanted to ask him if he was acting like a drama queen. At this moment, her cell phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was Chu Zeyan. She put the phone to her ear and said, "Hello, second brother?"
Li Zhen and Lu Yisen looked at her at the same time at this time.
Lu Xingchen looked back at them without changing his expression, and listened to Chu Zeyan say on the other end of the phone: "I found what you asked me to look up. Are you free now?"
