Chapter 249 Good Brothers
"Sister-in-law, I specially turned down all social engagements to come here to celebrate your housewarming.
I came here in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts. I hope you don't mind. "
Mei Xishuang arrived at Lu Xuan's mansion, and as soon as she landed, she waved enthusiastically to Xia Ningyan.
There was no sign of disgust on his face.
"Hey! Why don't you say hello to me first?
It doesn’t matter if you come empty-handed, as long as you can stay and drink.”
Lu Xuan coughed twice and tried to walk forward to say hello to Mei Xishuang and have a brief conversation.
However, he was pulled back by Xia Ningyan who was beside him.
"Xi Shuang, Ah Xuan has been staying at your place for the past two days, right?"
Looking at Mei Xishuang in front of her, Xia Ningyan spoke while carefully observing his expression.
"These two days? Yes, he has been at my place the whole time. What's wrong, sister-in-law?"
Mei Xishuang was stunned at first when she heard this, and then she replied calmly.
There was no sign of emotion on that handsome face that was difficult to tell whether it was male or female.
Because she often has to hide her true emotions, her acting skills have long been honed to perfection.
".Is that so? That's good."
Seeing that she couldn't see anything, Xia Ningyan glanced at Lu Xuan beside her.
I put my mind at ease for now and gave up my original speculation.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. This kid is quite honest. He only knew how to drink with me.
In addition, when those women came to see me, I deliberately sent them away.
I’m just afraid that you will come and ask me for vengeance later.”
Mei Xishuang reacted quickly, even though Lu Xuan did not give her any signal.
But as a woman, Xia Ningyan knew what the other party meant as soon as he opened his mouth.
If he chooses not to tell the other party at this time, he will have an excuse to threaten Lu Xuan later.
Let him return the favor as soon as possible.
As for what to ask Lu Xuan to do specifically, she hasn't figured it out yet, but she will definitely not let him go easily.
"Let's not talk about this for now. I called you here so late and asked you this kind of question as soon as we met.
It's my fault, but if I don't figure it out, I'll always feel uncomfortable. I hope Xishuang can understand.
You and Xuan, please sit down first. I will go to the kitchen and prepare some food and wine for you."
Xia Ningyan smiled slightly apologetically, then turned and walked towards the room on the right side of the mansion.
Lu Xuan and Mei Xishuang were left looking at each other.
"I think you are really good, you reacted so quickly, I thought something was going to happen.
This time, I really need your help.”
Lu Xuan glanced at his Taoist partner who had already walked away, then turned and whispered to Mei Xishuang.
"Humph, you begged me so much before you left, it's hard for me not to remember.
As soon as my sister-in-law asked me, I knew that if I had answered truthfully just now, you would have suffered a lot.
Have you figured out how to repay me?"
Mei Xishuang glanced at him indifferently, with a slight smile on her lips.
"Can you please stop being so utilitarian? Besides, I've been a model for you, isn't this enough to pay off the debt?
I have also booked the Zhaixing Tower that I promised you before, so at most I can give you a few more jars of good wine."
After hearing this, Lu Xuan raised his eyebrows. His good brother was asking for too much!
The two conditions promised before were not enough.
“Of course not, that was the price my sister-in-law offered before she asked me.
If you want me to lie to smooth things over for you and speak against my conscience, that's another price."
After Mei Xishuang finished speaking, she raised her arms and hugged Lu Xuan in her arms, her eyes narrowed slightly.
There was a hint of blackmail in his words.
"So what do you want? Just give me the straight answer." Lu Xuan gritted his teeth. There was nothing he could do. His pain point had been found, and now he could only let it go.
"I haven't decided yet. Let's wait until you treat me to the meal at Zhaixing Tower before we decide."
Mei Xishuang thought about it thoughtfully, but couldn't come up with anything good to think of for a while.
Then she gave up thinking and pulled Lu Xuan to sit aside.
He crossed his legs, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and stared at it for a while.
My head unconsciously wanted to lean on Lu Xuan's shoulder.
Many times, what she wants is not actually what happens in bed.
It's a little simple tenderness, like this, on a beautiful night.
Snuggle up with your loved one, keep silent, and just feel the evening breeze blowing towards you.
While enjoying the tranquility of the moment, Mei Xishuang slowly leaned her head on Lu Xuan's shoulder.
Just when they were about to get close, Xia Ningyan suddenly walked out of the kitchen.
In each hand he held a steaming plate of food.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to cook so many dishes. Come on, I'll serve them!"
Looking at Xia Ningyan who was ruining her good thing, Mei Xishuang could only force a smile on her face.
He quickly left Lu Xuan's side, then very sensibly took the dishes from her and put them on the table.
No matter how upset she was, she couldn't show it and had to play the role of a brother well.
"It's okay. I'll cook two more dishes. You two can go back to your room and wait."
Xia Ningyan looked at the two people in front of her and didn't notice anything wrong.
The excessive degree of contact between ordinary men and women seems normal when it comes to people of the same sex.
“Ningyan, don’t prepare too much, this kid and Aunt Yan can do it alone.
Most of them just drink and don’t eat food.”
Lu Xuan called his Taoist partner and said that he would have to invite this kid to a big restaurant when the time comes.
Save as much as you can on good food and wine now, because you'll be charged a huge sum of money later.
"OK then."
Seeing this, Xia Ningyan did not insist on making preparations and took off the apron she was wearing.
He took out a jar of wine and sat next to Lu Xuan.
“Xi Shuang, please forgive me, I just had a drink with an elder today.
I just woke up and my head still hurts, so I can't drink too much with you.
So I can only accompany you for a few drinks, and let Xuan handle the rest."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Ningyan raised her glass and took a sip.
"Ningyan, this guy is too drunk, you may have to take care of me tomorrow.
When you can’t drink anymore, go back to your room and don’t worry about me.”
When Lu Xuan saw this scene, his expression became a little worried. He was now a little afraid to get drunk in front of his Taoist partner.
I was afraid that after I lost my temper, I would say something ridiculous.
If someone hears it, it will be the end of you.
I can only use magic power to secretly evaporate the wine later. Although this is a waste, it is better than being discovered.
When Mei Xishuang, who was standing next to him, saw his look, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
The two of them have been together for so many years, she can easily judge what Lu Xuan is thinking.
Just one glance and I could guess what he was thinking.
She would take advantage of the situation to help Lu Xuan and pretend to be drunk.
Let him accompany her back to Shuize Peak, or stay in this mansion for one night.
Create an opportunity to be alone with Lu Xuan and do something happy as revenge on Xia Ningyan.
