Jiang Zhou took a glance at "Ning Anmiao". After some thought, the concern in his eyes faded a bit, and his expression gradually calmed down.
"Miao Miao has a talent for design. We've collaborated a few times before, and we got along well, so we're on good terms."
Jiang Zhou said casually, not mentioning Ning Anmiao's background at all.
After the last time he made a mistake in front of Father Ning, he couldn't talk casually before he was sure of Miao Miao's attitude.
It was obvious that Mother Lu didn't know Miao Miao's identity. Now that Miao Miao had been kicked out of the Ning family, it might not be a good thing to disclose her family background.
A fallen phoenix is inferior to a chicken. If others knew that Miao Miao had been kicked out of the Ning family, she might be even less respected.
It was better to keep a low profile.
"I see." Hearing this answer, Mother Lu felt an inexplicable disappointment.
Sure enough, she knew that this girl's background couldn't really be related to someone like Jiang Zhou!
Suddenly, she thought of something, and her eyes sparkled.
A cooperative relationship? A country bumpkin like her, what kind of cooperative relationship could she have with a young master like Jiang Zhou?
Could it be...
She rolled her eyes and made up her mind.
All of Mother Lu's subtle changes in expression fell into Jiang Zhou's eyes. He frowned slightly, looking a bit displeased.
"You guys talk. I'll go back to my room to rest."
Mother Lu still looked kind, like a good mother - in - law. "Since you're friends with Miao Miao, stay a while longer."
After returning to her room, Mother Lu immediately dropped the act and rolled her eyes.
A cooperative relationship? It should be a relationship in bed!
Meeting her lover so openly. It seemed that Ning Anmiao couldn't wait to shorten her days as Mrs. Lu!
She immediately took out her phone and called "Lu Yan" at the company.
As soon as the call was connected, she immediately spoke, her voice full of worry. "Lu Yan, are you at the company?"
Normally, Mother Lu never came to someone unless she had something to ask.
Ning Anmiao, who was at the company, was a bit surprised to suddenly receive a call from Mother Lu. "I'm at the company. What's up?"
"It's nothing much, it's just..." Mother Lu deliberately paused. "There's a guest at home, the young master of the Jiang family. He said he came specifically to find Miao Miao."
If her son couldn't understand the meaning behind this, he wouldn't just be dull, but rather his brain would be rusty.
A rich and powerful man traveling across a city specifically to find the most ordinary Ning Anmiao. Didn't this say it all?
Sure enough, after hearing what Mother Lu said, "Lu Yan"'s tone suddenly became urgent. "The young master of the Jiang family? Jiang Zhou?"
"Yes. I heard they're on really good terms..." Mother Lu stopped there, the corners of her lips curling up involuntarily.
Although her son was kind - hearted, he wasn't a fool to be bullied!
"Lu Yan" didn't think too much about the hidden meaning in Mother Lu's words. After confirming that the person visiting the house was Jiang Zhou, he quickly hung up the phone, saying that he would come back right away.
Mother Lu put away her phone, looking forward to what was about to happen.
She secretly opened the door and peeked out. Seeing that the two of them were still chatting, she heaved a sigh of relief.
But soon, Mother Lu noticed something wrong.
Although Jiang Zhou and "Ning Anmiao" were chatting, they were sitting far apart, as if "Ning Anmiao" was on guard against Jiang Zhou.
This wouldn't do. When Lu Yan came back and saw them sitting upright like this, he might not think much of it.
It seemed that she had to think of a way after Lu Yan came back.
In the living room, "Ning Anmiao" and Jiang Zhou stared at each other. They couldn't find a topic for a long time and just sat there awkwardly.
Lu Yan was too lazy to talk to Jiang Zhou, while Jiang Zhou was worried that Miao Miao was still mad at him, so he could only make some small talk.
The more they talked, the more irritated Lu Yan became.
He looked at the time. Ning Anmiao should be back soon. The last bit of patience on his face faded away.
"Jiang Zhou, if you have nothing else to do, you can leave first." "Ning Anmiao"'s tone was extremely stiff. "Lu Yan will be back soon. I'm afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings."
Misunderstandings? What misunderstandings could there be?
Jiang Zhou's face darkened, and his voice lost its previous gentleness, turning a bit cold. "Does he even have to control your normal social life? Miao Miao, I'm your brother!"
"Ning Anmiao" frowned tightly and lowered his head without saying a word.
"Can't you see that he's controlling your life?" Jiang Zhou was a bit anxious, raising his voice a little. "If this goes on, will you still be yourself, Miao Miao?"
As soon as Jiang Zhou finished speaking, "Ning Anmiao" suddenly trembled.
Just now, the look in his eyes towards Jiang Zhou was full of impatience, but at this moment, he suddenly froze.
Was the current Miao Miao still the same Miao Miao as before?
He had been angry because of the special relationship between Jiang Zhou and Miao Miao, but this sentence made him gradually wake up.
He really hadn't thought about these things.
Since Miao Miao married him, was she still the same Miao Miao as before?
In Lu Yan's memory, Miao Miao was tough - minded, never giving up in the face of difficulties, always smiling brightly. She was the goddess envied by all the boys in school and the object of envy for the girls.
Her family with a profound scholarly background gave her an extraordinary temperament. Coupled with her excellence in all aspects, there was nothing wrong with her.
It seemed that all the shining points in the world were on her, making her a very eye - catching presence in the crowd.
Such a person was indeed outstanding. However, Lu Yan had never been interested in girls, so he didn't pay much attention to Ning Anmiao.
Until one day, she appeared in front of him with a sweet smile.
Back then, Lu Yan was facing the two mountains of schoolwork and being forced to inherit the family business. He clearly told her that he wouldn't waste time on feelings, but she still followed him whole - heartedly.
Later, he didn't know what happened. Facing Miao Miao's smiling face, one day he just couldn't say no anymore and somehow agreed to be with her.
Later, when he saw her being kicked out of the Ning family, he felt pity and an indescribable emotion.
Before he could figure out this emotion, he married Miao Miao.
Since then, Miao Miao seemed to have changed.
She smiled less and less, and she no longer liked to share her daily life with him as much as she did during their relationship. There was more hesitation in her eyes.
The only thing she seemed to do to please him was in bed.
Seeing "Miao Miao" silent, Jiang Zhou thought she had realized the problem. He sighed, his eyes full of pity. "Miao Miao, why do you have to make things difficult for yourself?"
"Actually, Uncle Ning he..."
Just then, there was a noise at the door. The lock was turned, and "Lu Yan" appeared at the door.
