Chapter 35 Nanxi, I can afford you

Lu Jianshen's hand that was applying medicine to her suddenly paused.

But it only lasted a few seconds, and then his face returned to its natural color.

The low voice was as calm as ever: "Don't you already know the purpose of my marriage to you?"

Sure enough, the sigh hanging in Nan Xi's heart suddenly fell.

An expected answer.

She shouldn't have expected it in the first place, but she still couldn't help but want to ask.

Now that she knows the answer, she is clearer and no longer has unrealistic illusions.

So you see, so many facts were told to her.

She was wrong.

And it's dead wrong.

For so many years, the person he loved has always been Fang Qinglian, and only Fang Qinglian.

Perhaps from the moment Fang Qinglian returned to China, from the moment he filed for divorce, her dream was shattered.

It fell to the ground and was broken into pieces.

It can't be repaired anymore.

But Lu Jianshen, you are really cruel, do you know that?

If you don't love me, why do you treat me so tenderly? Is it just because of grandpa's instructions?

Such tenderness is not love.

It's pity.

It's sympathy.

It's also the one she least wants.

As if waking up from a dream, Nan Xi suddenly retracted her hand and looked at him: "Thank you for helping me apply the medicine, but no, I will do it myself."

"Don't move, I'll apply it." Lu Jianshen held her hand down.

Nan Xi insisted on taking out her finger: "I told you, you don't need to do it. It's just a matter of applying medicine. It's not a difficult task. I can apply it myself."

"Nanxi, don't be willful."

Lu Jianshen grabbed her hand again.

This time, Nan Xi did not pull out her hand, she looked towards the box opposite.

"Don't you see? Your sweetheart is still waiting for you. You asked her out to celebrate Chinese Valentine's Day, bought gifts, and gave surprises. Now if you waste your time with me, you have spent a whole day

, but it’s all in vain and has no effect.”

"Give me the medicine. I can still do this little thing."

However, Lu Jianshen seemed not to hear.

He speeded up and continued to apply the medicine.

But the subsequent movements were not as gentle as before, and Nan Xi's red and swollen wounds were a little painful after he applied the medicine.

Lu Jianshen didn't let go of Nan Xi's hand until he finished applying the medicine.

"You said today is not unusual?" He looked at her with deep eyes.

Nanxi avoided his gaze: "It has nothing to do with you whether it's abnormal or not. Go back quickly, Fang Qinglian is still waiting!"

"Are you so anxious to drive me away?"

It's not that she drives him away, but that his heart is not with her, so what's the point of trying to keep it?

"You didn't accompany me today on Chinese Valentine's Day. Since it's her you're accompanying her, why not come to me halfway?" The more Nan Xi said, the more she felt sour in her heart.

"Today happens to be her birthday. I promised her a long time ago. I didn't expect that today happens to be Chinese Valentine's Day. It was not intentional." Lu Jianshen explained.

"You don't have to explain to me."

"Are you angry?" Lu Jianshen asked again.

Nan Xi shook his head: "No."

Lu Jianshen's eyes fell on the bag next to him: "He said he was not angry."

When he received the text message to swipe his credit card, he was still wondering how she could suddenly swipe such a large amount of money. He didn't expect to buy these diamond rings, so it was not surprising.

"Today is Chinese Valentine's Day. Can't I buy myself some gifts that I like? Besides, you asked Lin Xiao to go shopping with me. How can I go shopping without spending money?"

Lu Jianshen stood up, rubbed her hair, and said with a smile: "I didn't say you shouldn't spend money."

"Even if you spend ten times the money, I can still afford it."

She was really angry at first, but after hearing these words, Nan Xi's defenses were broken again and she became completely weak.

It's always like this, a slap in the face and a sweet date.

Lu Jianshen, Lu Jianshen, you are really like poison, you have made me addicted. It hurts obviously, but I can’t quit.

Just then, his cell phone rang.

Over there, Fang Qinglian's phone call came clearly: "Jianshen, where have you been? I've already cut the cake. Come back quickly!"

"Okay, come right away."

Before leaving, he once again told Lin Xiao: "Take care of her."

Over there, Fang Qinglian clasped her hands tightly, and her hands had turned white due to exertion.

If she hadn't accidentally glanced across the street just now, she would never have imagined that Nan Xi was eating in this restaurant.

Moreover, Jianshen left her alone to see Nanxi.

Today is obviously her birthday, Jianshen is obviously here to accompany her, Nanxi, what are you trying to disturb again?

But this is not something to be angry about.

The most irritating thing is that she is obviously very angry, but she dares not speak out, let alone express it, so she can only endure it.

Endure it with all your might.

Hearing the footsteps, Fang Qinglian immediately let go of her hand, with a gentle smile on her face: "Jian Shen, come on, try this cake. I just took a bite, it's delicious."

Then, Fang Qinglian had already put the fork to Lu Jianshen's mouth.

Lu Jianshen could only open his mouth and take a bite.

Over there, Nan Xi burst into sore tears.

Some time ago, it was their second anniversary.

She also made a cake by herself and asked Lin Xiao to send it to him.

But what did he say? He said he didn't like sweets.

But when Fang Qinglian fed him cakes, he accepted them all and ate them all.

"Lin Xiao, do you think your boss is fickle or not?" Nan Xi turned to look at him and said with a bitter smile.

Lin Xiao was panicked and quickly comforted: "Young Madam, this is different. Mr. Lu, today... today is..."

Nan Xi interrupted and said coolly: "Forget it, I have to make you make an excuse for him, it will be hard for you."

"I'm done eating, let's go out!"

"Yes, young lady."

Perhaps because of the fish he ate at night, Nan Xi felt a little nauseous as soon as he left the restaurant.

After she went to the bathroom, she just came out and met Lin Xiao. Fang Qinglian and Lu Jianshen also happened to come out of the restaurant.

"Nanxi, it's a coincidence that I keep running into you today." Fang Qinglian looked at her and greeted her generously.

"Well, what a coincidence."

Nanxi didn't want to talk to her, but someone bothered her.

When her eyes fell on the bag in Lin Xiao's hand, Fang Qinglian suddenly opened her mouth and said in surprise: "Nanxi, it turns out you were the one who bought those rings!"

"It was really unexpected. When Jianshen and I went back, they said that someone had bought all three types of rings. I thought who it was? I really didn't expect it to be you."

Nan Xi raised her head and looked at her with a faint smile: "Yes, I liked it very much after seeing it, so I bought them all."

"Anyway, my husband has plenty of money. He doesn't lack this little money at all, don't you think so?"

Nan Xi's rhetorical question made Fang Qinglian turn pale with anger, but she couldn't get angry and could only endure it.

"You're right, but I think girls should be more independent, don't you think so? Jianshen?" After Fang Qinglian finished speaking, she deliberately looked at Lu Jianshen.

Nanxi said coldly: "Really? I don't have the ambitions of Miss Fang. I'm superficial. I just don't want to work hard and want my husband to support me. How could my husband say he is willing to spend a lot of money to support me!"
