1777 It Won’t Be Nice If Word Gets Out

“He went to Su Bei’s room upstairs. Should I invite him down first or wait for him to come down himself?” He Shihui did not intend to come up with a scheme for this matter.

However, she would not watch such a thing happen and do nothing about it.

These words would definitely plant a thorn in the hearts of the He family, who had a good family background, and Old Master He, who cared a lot about reputation.

This was enough for He Shihui to achieve her goal.

Sure enough, Old Master He frowned slightly. Why did Su Lu go to Su Bei’s room instead of visiting him?

However, if the two young people were friends, it should be fine.

When Wang Hui heard this, she said, “Su Bei is already married. It’s inappropriate for her to meet Su Lu alone in the room, right? Why don’t I invite them down? Otherwise, if word gets out, they’ll think that our He family doesn’t control our children. Outsiders will see us as a joke. When Mr. Lu finds out, he’ll be unhappy!”

Her words made Old Master He frown even more.

Coincidentally, He Jiang and Lin Xiruo also returned with He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin today. It was just that as soon as He Xuyan and Xu Zhiqin returned, they were pulled away by their friends.

He Jiang and Lin Xiruo came to celebrate the old master’s birthday first. Before they could approach, they heard this. Lin Xiruo immediately said, “Dad, what are you talking about?”

Wang Hui said, “Xiruo, you’re back? We’re talking about a young painter who went to Su Bei’s room. I heard that he went in with a card. Insiders know that under Dad’s education, everyone in the family keeps themselves clean and that Su Bei is probably just having a discussion with Su Lu. However, those who don’t know will surely gossip. It won’t be good if word gets out. I said that I’ll ask that young painter to come down.”

She was the most talkative one, yet she was still talking about others. Lin Xiruo was immediately angry. “I didn’t hear what anyone else said. I only heard you talking alone the entire time.”

“Didn’t you ask me what we were talking about?” Wang Hui felt a little embarrassed.

“I was asking Dad. I don’t think I ever asked you?” Lin Xiruo said angrily. She was usually very docile and kind, but if anyone dared to bully Su Bei, she wouldn’t show them any mercy.

Wang Hui was also annoyed. “Xiruo, I’m just telling the truth. Ask Shihui and Yuxin what’s going on. I’m doing this for the sake of the He family’s reputation. Besides, it’s a fact that Su Bei and Mr. Lu are married. If you think this matter is aboveboard, would you dare to say it in front of Mr. Lu? Who am I doing this for, huh? It’s better to prevent trouble than to implicate everyone.”

He Shihui immediately said, “Aunt, my mother’s words aren’t pleasant to the ears, but she does have good intentions. Don’t take it to heart. If she really thought of gossiping, I’m afraid everyone would know about it by now. Besides, Yuxin was the one who told us about this. If you don’t want to interfere, we’ll just ignore it. What do you think?”

She wanted to wash her hands clean off of this matter, but she was the first to bring this matter up to Old Master He.

“Yuxin, let me ask you, what’s going on?” Lin Xiruo looked at Wei Yuxin.

Wei Yuxin was also furious. She was indeed the one who shared the news, but she did it to please He Shihui and not to offend Lin Xiruo!

However, since everyone had already said so, she had no choice but to admit it!

“Aunt, I accidentally saw Su Lu sneak into Su Bei’s room. He also had Su Bei’s room card, so I was a little worried. That’s why I told Sister Shihui. I was afraid that something would happen. As you know, Su Lu’s background is very ordinary. If he has thoughts about Su Bei…” Wei Yuxin disguised her true motive.

Hearing her say this, Old Master He and He Jiang were immediately worried. “Then let’s go up and take a look first!”

No matter what, they had to ensure Su Bei’s safety first!

Wei Yuxin quickly moved aside. Old Master He and He Jiang were the first to go upstairs. Lin Xiruo supported Old Madam He, who was also worried, and quickly walked over.

Wang Hui and He Shihui followed closely behind.

Naturally, Wei Yuxin would not fall behind.

Anyway, there would be a good show to watch tonight. It was a good opportunity for the He family to see what kind of person Su Bei was!

Wang Hui was the proudest one. She had never been able to compare to Lin Xiruo, so she could only compare her daughter to Su Bei.

Her daughter was clearly so capable, but the entire family still doted on Su Bei so much.

Now, if there was really something going on between Su Bei and Su Lu, would Su Bei still be able to gain a foothold in the future?

Even if it was nothing, what would Lu Heting think of Su Bei if word got out that the two were alone in the same room?

What would the outside world think about it?

Anyway, this matter would definitely cause a scene!

Su Bei had no idea that there was a commotion downstairs.

After she went upstairs, she began choosing her clothes. She was thinking about what to wear to match Lu Heting, so she abandoned her previous gown and wanted to change into another one.

But before she could choose, Lu Heting came upstairs.

“Do you think this gown looks better or this one?” Su Bei showed the two gowns she had selected to Lu Heting.

Lu Heting’s eyes darkened. “They both look good!”

“I shouldn’t have asked you!” Su Bei pushed him away with a smile. “Then I’ll change into them first before making a decision!”

It had been a few months since they last saw each other. Lu Heting’s ears were burning with heat. Before Su Bei could turn around, he hugged her and lowered his head to kiss her lips. His fingers traced her eyebrows.

The longer they had not seen each other, the more he knew how important she was to him.

When they met again, she had not changed at all. She was still the person he loved the most in his heart, and he could not let go of her.

Su Bei leaned against him. His fingers were only on her eyebrows, but they made her entire body burn.

“We don’t have… much time…” Su Bei took the time to remind him.

They still had to celebrate her grandfather’s birthday, and Lu Heting had to meet her family. Su Bei knew that she was very busy tonight.

She had already spent a long time with Lu Heting today.

Lu Heting knew that, so he didn’t want to do anything. He just wanted to hug her and kiss her more.

He just wanted to cherish this moment.

The two of them were still hugging each other when He Jiang’s anxious voice suddenly came from outside the door. “Su Bei, are you there?”

He loved his daughter so much that he lost control of his voice. He was afraid that something would happen to Su Bei!
