250 I am her backer 9
âNo, I didnât mean it that way. Do you want to go grocery shopping with me?â Tong Lu was shocked.
âRemember, you owe me a meal!â Leng Yejin glared at her. âGo to the Presidentâs House,â he ordered.
Tong Lu pursed her lips.âHow can I owe someone a death anniversary meal?â This was something that had expired.
He did not cook for them that night and instead had dinner at the presidential palace. Usually, there were only the two of them at the dining table. It was rare that there were so many people tonight. Madam presidentâs eyes were full of smiles. Xiaolu, eat more and donât be so reserved. Although we are in the presidential palace, we are all family. Just treat it as if you are at home.
âYes.â
However, she could not feel at ease eating at the same table as the president and his wife, unlike Leng Yejin, who was sitting next to her. He ate elegantly and casually, as if he was at home.
Leng Yejin was cutting his steak. I went to visit the grave today. Tong Lu and Shanshan were splashed with sulfuric acid. Fortunately, I arrived in time. Thatâs how we managed to survive.
The president and Madam President paused in their eating. Madam presidentâs expression was one of shock.âWhatâs going on?â
Leng Yejin briefly explained what had happened today. Madam presidentâs face darkened.âHow could he do such a thing? That child, Xu Ke, was carefully selected by the old man from all the girls in the Xu family. Her talent and appearance were excellent, but why was her character so inferior? Xiaolu, what conflict did you have with Xu Han?â
Tong Lu pursed her lips, feeling a little guilty.
Leng Yejin finished the glass of wine in his hand. He raised his eyebrows and laughed sarcastically.âIâve seen her character a long time ago. A few months ago, at a charity auction, she was drugged and came to me to save her. I checked and found out that she had found someone to drug her. With such a woman by my side, Iâm afraid I wonât be able to sleep well at night.â
Tong Lu lowered her head. The charity auction a few months ago? That night, she also took the love drug by mistake. Could it be related to Xu Ke?
In his seat, the presidentâs face was cold and serious. âI will discuss this with my family. I donât like this kind of character.â
A dark glint flashed across Leng Yejinâs eyes. He did not beat around the bush. As the head of a family, he knew how important his marriage was to the political alliance between the two families. This had never been his personal matter. It was a matter of the Alliance of interests between the two families. Between financial groups, and between politics, they could form a powerful alliance through marriage. However, after Xu Keâs incident, it could at least be delayed for a while.
After dinner, a fleet of cars slowly stopped in front of an apartment in a high-end community near the presidential palace.
âIâll carry it up myself?â Tong Lu got out of the car. She wanted to take Shanshan, who was already fast asleep, from Leng Yejinâs hands.
The man strode forward with his long legs, carrying his daughter and walking straight into the apartment.
In the elevator, Tong Lu was taking out her keys. She asked as she flipped through the briefcase, â âUm, I heard you say that Xu Ke used aphrodisiacs. Was it the time when I was also drugged? Did she poison me?â
âShe wanted to drink it herself but took the wrong cup. You ate it by mistake.â
The elevator door opened with a ding. Leng Yejin walked out first, and Tong Lu followed behind him to open the door. She did not expect that this was how she was drugged. Xu Ke had schemed so hard, but in the end, her youngest uncle became her antidote? Tong Lu pursed her lips. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
âWait a minute, slippers.â
Leng Yejin lowered his head. His expression suddenly turned stern, and his voice was terrifying.âWhere did these menâs slippers come from?â
Tong Lu looked embarrassed. when Shanshan and I were shopping at the supermarket, she insisted on buying a pair for men. She said that if you came to visit her at home, youâd have to be barefooted if you didnât have slippers.
