After the divorce, she disappeared overnight

Chapter 172 Baby~Are you inviting me?

"Baby, I was just kidding, why are you angry?" He held her in his arms, sat on the sofa, and hugged her tightly.

"Not angry."

"Really? There's a new little pufferfish at home."

After hearing this, Jiang Yi became even angrier and glared at him fiercely.

"You are."

She pretended to be angry and shook off the man's hand, then sat aside with her back to him.

"My husband is wrong." Upon seeing this, Shi Lu hurriedly half-knelt in front of her, put his hands on her thighs, and coaxed her softly.

"What did you do this morning?" Jiang Yi still didn't turn around, but just asked coldly.

"I went to the company to take care of some things."

"That's it?" Jiang Yi obviously didn't believe him and continued to ask.

"Ahem, you found out." Shi Lu touched his nose awkwardly and admitted, "I also went to Huo's."

"I have work to do."

"I know. I just want to let Aqi know."

Jiang Yi knew, so he didn't blame him, "Mom said to go there at three o'clock."

The man raised his wrist and checked the time. "There's still one hour left."

"I'm going to put on some makeup. Do you want to change your clothes?" Jiang Yi stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

"Baby~ Are you inviting me?" Shi Lu quickly followed her into the bedroom with a sly smile on his face.

"Don't think about that all day, be serious." Jiang Yi rolled her eyes at him, picked up her makeup bag and started putting on makeup.

"Baby, you misunderstood me again." Shi Lu looked at her aggrievedly.

"Go aside."

"Yes, my lady."

Hearing this ambiguous call, Jiang Yi was startled and his ears suddenly turned red.

……

For convenience, the meal was arranged at the Junda Hotel.

Shi Lu held the gift in his left hand and gently placed his right hand on Jiang Yi's shoulder. The two of them walked quickly towards the private room that had been booked in advance.

According to Jiang Yi's description, he specially selected the flavors of dishes that his aunt liked, and also ordered a few extra dishes that Jiang Yi liked.

They had just sat down for a while when the door was pushed open.

A middle-aged woman with a graceful figure and a quiet and dignified temperament walked slowly into the room.

She is tall and slender, dressed elegantly, and her thick black hair is carefully groomed, looking fluffy and dignified.

A young man followed closely behind him.

He has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his expression reveals an unruly personality, which makes people want to explore him in depth.

"mom."

"Auntie."

"Sit down quickly."

"Xiaochen, call someone." Mother Jiang gently pulled the young man beside her.

"Sister, brother-in-law." Although he was reluctant, Jiang Jingchen still called out for the sake of his mother.

"Hello, Jingchen." Shi Lu took the initiative to extend his right hand.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Jingchen reached out and shook hands back.

The two looked at each other, and there seemed to be a flame burning in their eyes.

"Ahem." Mother Jiang coughed lightly and signaled Jiang Jingchen with her eyes, asking him to pay attention to his behavior.

After receiving his mother's hint, Jiang Jingchen stopped what he was doing and slowly loosened his grip on Shi Lu's hand.

After the two of them sat down one after another, Shi Lu smiled and took out the carefully prepared gift from his side and handed it to Jiang's mother carefully.

"Auntie, this is a gift for you, please accept it."

"Oh, you are so polite, kid. I'm sorry to have cost you money." Mother Jiang took the gift with a smile on her face and expressed her liking for it.

"It's just a small token of my appreciation. It should be the younger generation who takes the initiative to visit you." Shi Lu responded humbly and politely.

"It's okay. I just took some time to come and see Yiyi and her boyfriend. I hope I didn't interrupt your work by calling you here so abruptly today."

"It's no problem. I'm glad you came."

"Really? She looked reluctant yesterday." Mother Jiang turned her gaze to her daughter with a hint of doubt.

"Oh, Mom. The food is here, let's eat." Jiang Yi hurriedly interrupted the conversation.

"What? Isn't it?" Jiang's mother kept asking.

"Mom~" she called out coquettishly, hoping that her mother would not continue this topic.

"Xiao Lu, I wonder if Yi Yi has mentioned this to you? I came here this time just to take her back."

"Auntie, she told me last night." Shi Lu answered calmly and firmly, as if he had been mentally prepared.

"What do you think?" Mother Jiang looked at him scrutinizingly, wanting to understand his attitude towards the matter.

"I won't force her to do anything she wants to do. As for what's going on between us, I'll just accommodate her."

"No wonder she likes you, yes. But if you follow her back to Maple City, what will happen to your career? And your family." She raised a realistic question.

"Auntie, I've already thought about all this. As for the company, I have an assistant to help me manage it, and I can control it remotely."

"What about your family? Will they agree with you doing this?"

"They will respect me, don't worry."

Mother Jiang smiled with relief, "Okay, let's eat."

Several people started to eat. They tasted the food on the table while chatting with each other, and bursts of cheerful laughter appeared from time to time.

After dinner, Shi Lu and Jiang Yi sent Jiang's mother back to her room, and then they left.

Shi Lu was driving the car and Jiang Yi was sitting in the passenger seat. She seemed to have something to say but didn't know how to start.

Finally, it was Shi Lu who broke the silence: "My brother seems to have some opinions about me."

"Don't pay attention to him, he's just spoiled."

"So what does he like? Tell me about it."

Jiang Yi thought about it and replied, "I'm not sure either."

The man looked at her in surprise and asked in confusion: "Huh? You don't know that you are his sister?"

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "We have been at odds with each other since we were young. Our relationship is like that of strangers."

"When I took the business exam, he insisted on taking the arts exam. He was against me in every way."

Shi Lu smiled helplessly and said with emotion: "It's true that we are enemies."

At this moment, Jiang Yi suddenly looked at Shi Lu seriously and said softly, "Alu, regarding your family...are you really not going to go back and explain?"

Shi Lu's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and said firmly, "No need."

She whispered, "But I was the one who concealed my identity and deceived you."

Shi Lu reached out and gently held Jiang Yi's hand, saying softly: "In my heart, you will always be the strong girl who is penniless and lives on part-time jobs, not the daughter of a wealthy family."

He paused, then continued: "Besides, I love you as a person, not your identity."

Jiang Yi was so moved that her eyes were slightly red. She looked out the window and whispered, "If I reveal my identity, will the aunties stop targeting me?"

"My mother is like this. She won't cry until she sees the coffin. You, just be yourself and don't think about other things."

"it is good."

Jiang Yi didn't want to dwell on it too much. They were walking this road together, not just with his mother.
