Chapter 174 Wen Li felt the Lu family was very familiar.
Lu Wanwan looked at the black gold card in Chu Miao's hand, her expression shifting between light and dark.
The Black Gold Card is specially issued by the Si Group and allows unlimited purchases of all products under the Si Group, with a value of at least several hundred million!
There were fewer than ten in the entire capital city; her mother had one, but she didn't.
This woman, who looks like she's dressed in cheap, miscellaneous brands, actually has a black card!
The maid behind Lu Wanwan looked even more disgusted, as if she had eaten shit. She was used to swaggering around with Lu Wanwan and thought Chu Miaomiao was a pushover. She never expected that Chu Miaomiao could actually produce a black gold card. Their mistress had this card, and their mistress was very precious to her!
"Miss Chu, please keep this safe and take care." The store manager greeted her respectfully and handed the shopping bag to Chu Miao.
Chu Miao took it and glanced at Lu Wanwan blocking her way: "Miss, please move aside. If you can't afford it, don't block the way."
She half-raised her eyes, mimicking Lu Wanwan's disdainful look from earlier, and glanced at her sideways.
When she went out, Lu Wanwan's face was dark.
Seeing her darkened face, the store manager put on a forced smile and said, "Ms. Lu, we've received some new products. Would you like to take a look?"
"No need." Lu Wanwan said coldly, and strode out of the store. Even outside, her expression was still not good.
"Wanwan, what's wrong?"
A gentle voice rang out, and Chu Yan walked over from the side.
She and Lu Wanwan had originally planned to go shopping together.
Chu Yan simply went to the restroom.
When I got back, I saw Lu Wanwan looking furious.
Following the curve of the road, she saw Chu Miao disappear around the corner. Even though it was just a silhouette, Chu Yan recognized her.
His expression immediately darkened.
"It turned out to be her."
"You know her?" Lu Wanwan was taken aback by her words and turned to look at her.
"Wanwan, she's the Chu Miaomiao I told you about, my uncle's daughter, who often bullies me."
"It turns out to be her!"
Lu Wanwan laughed in anger. She already had no good feelings towards Chu Miao's family because of Chu Yan, and after seeing them today, she felt even less favorably towards Chu Miao.
Chu Yan lowered her head, feigning pitifulness, "Now that their family is very rich, they can even live in Langting Garden, so they look down on us even more. It's all because my father is in jail, and our family has no one to rely on..."
"Who says you don't have a backer! I am your backer!" Seeing that Chu Yan was in a bad mood, Lu Wanwan comforted her: "Have you forgotten? You saved my life! Yan Yan, you are my savior."
Because Chu Yan had saved Lu Wanwan, Lu Wanwan treated her very well and couldn't bear to see her unhappy: "So what if you're moving into Langting Garden! What's so great about it! If you want to live there, I'll give you an apartment!"
"Give it to me?" Chu Yan was very tempted, but looked troubled: "This isn't quite right... We're just friends, giving away a house is too expensive, and your aunt and uncle probably wouldn't agree..."
Lu Wanwan waved her hand: "It's just a house, what's wrong with it? If you want it, I'll give it to you. Yan Yan, you're my savior! Don't say such discouraging things anymore. Don't worry, I'll get all the justice for you!"
Lu Wanwan thought back to that day when she was dragged into an alley by a man in black. If Chu Yan hadn't suddenly appeared and saved her, she would have definitely suffered inhuman torture.
A house in Langham Gardens wouldn't be enough to repay this debt!
Chu Yan's lips curled up.
While secretly cursing Lu Wanwan for being stupid, she couldn't help but think that Lu Wanwan was indeed the eldest daughter of the Lu family, able to give away a house in Langting Garden so easily!
She now has a powerful backer, and she will repay Chu Miaomiao for the pain she inflicted on her, little by little.
……
Chu Miao returned home with the gifts.
But then I saw Wen Li rushing around, as if she was about to go out.
"Mom, are you going out?"
Wen Li didn't dare say that she had arranged a meeting with wealthy women in the circle to finally meet the Lu family. Strangely enough, she had tried to contact many people but hadn't been able to get in touch with the Lu family.
But someone just called her and said that Mr. Lu's adopted daughter, Wen Minhui, is having a tea party at her home this afternoon with some wealthy ladies, and she was invited to join them.
Wen Li was overjoyed. She had heard that Old Master Lu doted on his adopted daughter. If she could meet with her and clear up the misunderstanding between the two families, perhaps the Lu family could get the Chu family to take over Old Master Lu's birthday banquet again.
She was worried that Chu Miao would stop her from going if she told her, so she only said, "I have made an appointment with some friends to have afternoon tea."
Chu Miao strongly agreed that Wen Li should go out more. She nodded and said, "You should have gone out more often. Don't stay cooped up at home. Here's a gift for you, your dad, and your grandparents."
Chu Miao took out the gift and waved it in front of Wen Li. Wen Li was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed: "It's for me!"
Mr. and Mrs. Wen were very happy; it was bought for them by their own granddaughter!
They love it!
"My darling daughter has such good taste; Mom loves the silk scarf she gave me."
Wen Li loved it so much she couldn't put it down.
I tried it on briefly and then put the scarf back in the box.
She's reluctant to wear the silk scarf her beloved daughter gave her.
She was in a hurry to get to the Lu family's house, so she didn't say much more to Chu Miao and told her to go back to her room to rest first. She then took the gifts and went to the Lu family's house.
……
The Lu family.
The building is constructed in the traditional style, with a grand and imposing gate, continuous white walls and black tiles, and pavilions and towers scattered in a harmonious arrangement. Lush flowering trees extend over the walls, revealing their graceful branches, and a faint fragrance wafts through the air, making one feel refreshed and relaxed.
As expected of the Lu family, a family steeped in scholarship.
The gate is so exquisite and grand.
“Lili, I really went to great lengths to get you here. When you meet this lady later, remember not to call her by her surname ‘Wen’. She hates it when people mention her adopted daughter status.”
"You'd better just call her Mrs. Lu."
"She is the most beloved person of Old Master Lu and the three Lu brothers. As long as you maintain a good relationship with her, there will definitely be no problem with your family's cooperation with the Lu family."
"That's what the lady, who was holding Wen Li's arm, said."
She truly considered Wen Li a friend, which is why she patiently offered so much advice.
After she finished speaking, she did not hear a response from Wen Li. She turned her head in confusion and saw Wen Li staring at the Lu family's gate, as if she was in a daze.
"Lili?"
Wen Li finally came to her senses.
"What, is this your first time visiting the Lu family? Are you amazed by their grandeur?"
The lady asked, amused.
Wen Li smiled, looking at the Lu family's gate, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart.
It's strange, really, because this was her first time visiting the Lu family.
But when they saw the Lu family's gate, they felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
It was as if she had been here before.
But she clearly never came to the Lu family's house.
