After I left home with a broken heart, my whole family begged me to come back

Chapter 23: Chance Encounter or Deliberate?

The community is a high-end community with complete supporting facilities nearby.

Not far away there is a special shopping building, breakfast shops, restaurants, supermarkets, chess and card rooms, etc., with all kinds of shops.

Xie Chen wandered around for a while, decided to have lunch at a home-style restaurant, and then returned to school.

Just as Xie Chen was about to enter, a familiar voice came from behind him, "Xie Chen!"

Xie Chen turned around and saw Lu Yuanyuan again.

Xie Chen was a little surprised, "Miss Lu, did you install a locator on me?"

Lu Yuanyuan pouted and snorted, "Narcissism!"

Although, she did follow Xie Chen here secretly, but could she admit such a thing?

You can't admit it even to death!
"You want to go eat?" Lu Yuanyuan took two steps forward and caught up with Xie Chen. "It's just right. Today is worse than tomorrow. You still need two meals from me. Please treat me one today!"

Lu Yuanyuan said this carelessly and took the initiative to hold Xie Chen's arm.

The girl had a well-developed figure. Xie Chen's body stiffened and his mind went blank.

She was about to shake off Lu Yuanyuan, but she heard Lu Yuanyuan turning around and looking at her, saying happily, "Xie Chen, hurry up!"

The girl's fair face was bright and without a trace of romantic thoughts.

Xie Chen cursed himself as a beast, hummed softly, and let Lu Yuanyuan take him into the family restaurant.

In his eighteen years of life, Xie Chen had seldom eaten out very often.

But since I said I was going to treat Lu Yuanyuan to a meal, it can’t be too shabby.

"Just order whatever you want to eat!" Xie Chen pushed the menu in front of Lu Yuanyuan.

Lu Yuanyuan took the menu and started to choose carefully.

After much selection, I only chose two vegetarian dishes.

"Save money for me?" Xie Chen joked.

Lu Yuanyuan glanced at Xie Chen in a proud manner, "Who is saving you money? You usually eat too well at home, can't you come out and eat some vegetarian food?"

Xie Chen smiled.

It is rumored in the school that the eldest daughter of the Lu family is unruly and difficult to approach.

But now it seems that the rumors cannot be fully trusted.

Look how considerate this young lady from the Lu family is in front of you.

It's so thoughtful to save him money.

Xie Chen took the menu and ordered two more meat dishes, which made him slightly satisfied.

Lu Yuanyuan glanced at Xie Chen's cuffs. Although Xie Chen was not wearing a school uniform today, the cufflinks she gave him would never appear on Xie Chen's sleeves.

When Lu Yuanyuan thought of this, she got angry.

If I had been braver at that time and given the things directly to Xie Chen, there wouldn't have been so many misunderstandings.

"Xie Chen, the Xie family is wrong to treat you like this." Lu Yuanyuan blinked her eyes like black grapes and looked at Xie Chen with burning eyes, "After you leave the Xie family, if there are any problems that cannot be solved, you can come to me."

"I can help you solve it." Lu Yuanyuan did not hide her kindness towards Xie Chen.

Xie Chen smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank Miss Lu first."

Lu Yuanyuan snorted, "Why are you being so polite to me?"

As they were talking, the food was served and the two of them started eating.

Xie Chen is not a talkative person, especially when facing Lu Yuanyuan, he has an inexplicable sense of unworthiness in his heart.

Therefore, there is very little conversation at the dinner table.

"Xie Chen, do you like someone like Song Xue?" Lu Yuanyuan didn't know how to hide it at all and spoke directly.

Xie Chen paused while eating, his ears slightly flushed, "Don't talk nonsense!" "Oh, do you like me like this?" Lu Yuanyuan looked at Xie Chen with burning eyes, her eyes bright as stars, blinking, stirring up ripples in the lake in Xie Chen's heart.

“Miss Lu, don’t talk while eating and don’t talk while sleeping.” Xie Chen lectured with a stern face.

Lu Yuanyuan burst into laughter. "Just try sleeping with me. I definitely won't say anything."

Xie Chen shook his head speechlessly. Lu Yuanyuan was really going further and further.

"Okay, I was just kidding." Seeing Xie Chen's blushing face, Lu Yuanyuan felt embarrassed to continue teasing him.

He buried his head in his food, but from time to time he would look up at Xie Chen.

I have to say, Xie Chen is really handsome.

He has a slightly broken face, sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, a high nose bridge, full and stylish lips, and clear facial contours as if they were carved by a knife or an axe.

It seemed that God had passed on all the good genes of the Xie family to Xie Chen.

On the other hand, Xie Ci was a sissy, with a slutty look. When Lu Yuanyuan got close to Xie Ci, she felt like the air was polluted.

"Is there something on my face?" Xie Chen asked in a low voice.

Lu Yuanyuan's gaze was so unscrupulous, how could he not notice it.

"Yes, my whole spring is on your face." Lu Yuanyuan nodded seriously, "When I see your face, I can't help but be overjoyed!"

Xie Chen felt that his mother tongue should be speechless.

The eldest lady of the Lu family, you are the eldest lady, a girl. Do your parents know that you are so good at flirting?
"Miss Lu is different from what the rumors say." Xie Chen chuckled. How could a Lu Yuanyuan like this be the slightest bit cold and aloof?
Lu Yuanyuan also laughed, "Don't try to understand me from what others say. After all, my attitude towards everyone is different."

Lu Yuanyuan spoke casually, but Xie Chen saw the wisdom of conduct in Lu Yuanyuan.

How you treat me is how I treat others.

Never try to understand a person from what others say.

"I got it." Xie Chen nodded deeply.

If he had realized this earlier, he wouldn't have lived such a miserable life in his previous life.

Lu Yuanyuan raised the corners of her lips slightly, "It's good that you've learned it."

Those people in the Xie family treated Xie Chen like this. Even if Xie Chen becomes rich in the future, he must never be soft-hearted towards those people in the Xie family.

……

In Xie Ling's room at the Xie family, Xie Ling sat in front of the dressing table, holding the butterfly brooch that Xie Chen had made for her with wire, and was absent-minded for a long time.

She originally wanted to keep Xie Chen.

But now, Xie Chen's household registration has been moved out of the Xie family, and the situation has really reached a point where it cannot be reversed.

Xie Ling took out his cell phone and wanted to call Xie Chen.

But he didn't know what to say to Xie Chen when he called.

Xie Min knocked on the door and walked in. "What are you doing? You're not even eating?"

Seeing the butterfly brooch in Xie Ling's hand, Xie Min frowned in disdain, "Didn't you throw this thing away?"

Xie Ling laughed at himself, "Yeah, I threw it on the ground, but Xie Chen picked it up."

She never thought about how much harm her action at that time would cause to Xie Chen.

Everyone in the Xie family receives pocket money every month, except Xie Chen.

Even though Xie Chen didn't have pocket money to buy her a decent gift, he still made careful preparations for her birthday.

However, she trampled on Xie Chen's sincerity!

"Don't mention him in front of me again!" Xie Min said impatiently.

"Sister, there is something I want to tell you." Xie Ling couldn't hold it in any longer. This matter kept weighing on her mind and she would go crazy.
