The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 563

Chapter 563: Chapter 559: A Gentle Attitude

The driver didn’t answer Leng Shuyue’s question directly. Instead, he went back to explain the situation to Zhang Tianming.

When Zhang Tianming and Zhu Wanqi heard that the woman in front of them was Leng Yuan’s aunt, they both got right out of the car.

When Leng Shuyue saw them, she froze on the spot, completely dumbfounded.

’How could it be Zhang Tianming?’

’When did Leng Yuan get connected with such a big shot?’

If Leng Shuyue had been harboring any little schemes just a moment ago, they all vanished the instant she saw Zhang Tianming and Zhu Wanqi.

These were not people whose status she could afford to offend.

Leng Shuyue took the initiative to approach and greet the two of them, then personally led the way for Zhang Tianming and Zhu Wanqi.

Zhu Wanqi ushered Leng Shuyue right into the car.

This was Leng Yuan’s aunt, which by extension made her Gu Jiaojiao’s aunt. Since she had come specifically to thank Gu Jiaojiao, her attitude toward Leng Shuyue was naturally very warm.

The group got into the car, and with Leng Shuyue giving directions, they soon arrived at the gate of Leng Yuan’s house.

When Leng Shuyue stepped out of the car, the cool breeze hit her, finally clearing her head.

’She understood that the warmer Zhu Wanqi was to her, the better her relationship with Leng Yuan must be. But she just couldn’t figure out how such a powerful person had gotten involved with a humble teacher like Leng Yuan.’

Zhang Tianming and Zhu Wanqi looked at the courtyard before them. It was quite different from the others in the village. They wondered why Leng Yuan’s house was so far from the village, situated at the foot of a mountain.

Recalling Leng Shuyue’s comment that theirs was the only family in the entire village with the surname Leng, an unreadable expression flickered in Zhu Wanqi and Zhang Tianming’s eyes.

’Villages were still very insular during this era,’ they thought. ’The Leng Family had likely been ostracized and forced to move to the foot of the mountain.’

The perceptive driver stepped forward to knock. Inside the courtyard, Chen Jianshe, who had been talking with Lu Yuanbin, was the first to rush over and open the gate.

He opened the gate, saw the people outside, and immediately slammed it shut with a BANG.

The people outside: ...

What was going on?

Chen Jianshe didn’t stop him. When it came to chewing people out, Lu Yuanbin was the man for the job. After all, he was much more crafty.

Lu Yuanbin strode to the gate and threw it open, only to be met by two familiar faces.

Zhang Tianming and Zhu Wanqi!

And then he spotted Leng Shuyue among the four of them!

This was...

a misunderstanding.

Just as Lu Yuanbin was about to explain, Zhu Wanqi’s tone turned cold. "So you’re here too. You people certainly have a lot of nerve. I take it we’re not welcome here!"

Lu Yuanbin quickly spoke up. "No, no, please don’t be angry. The one who opened the gate just now was my simple-minded younger brother. He’s a bit slow, so please don’t hold it against him. If I’d known it was you, I would have run to open the gate myself in a heartbeat."

"Simple-minded? Are you kidding me? He didn’t look simple-minded to me at all." Zhu Wanqi was not easily fooled. Besides, after knocking for so long, she was losing her patience.
