Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man Chapter 1213 – Chapter 1213: Chapter 1213: What happened to Zishan?

Chapter 1213: Chapter 1213: What happened to Zishan?

Thinking about who I used to be, it all seems so unbelievable. All that accommodating, time and again going against my own principles—I had become so unlike myself. This time, my reputation was in ruins, and I had been suspended from work, but I didn’t feel a bit sad.

Lu Jianan had gone to order food from the proprietress, and it was then that Xu Xiyi spoke up, “So she’s the one who likes Jin Yan?”

“Big Brother, are you jealous?” Xu Junfeng looked as if he had been struck by lightning, utterly astonished.

Xu Xiyi gave the brat a smack.

“Talking nonsense.”

“Sorry, it’s just that you make it easy for people to misunderstand. You insist on coming with me—if you say you have no motive, I’ll never believe you even if you beat me to death.”

“Cough, cough.” Xu Xiyi put his right fist up to his lips, speaking unhappily, “You know that Mother and Father are constantly arranging blind dates for me, don’t you?” His main objective was to avoid those dates.

“Heh heh, of course, I know.” He didn’t just know; he’d even been giving advice to Mother and Father in secret, helping them to arrange even more for Big Brother—preferably two a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, starting now right through to the Lantern Festival.

But he wouldn’t dare to say this out loud. If Big Brother found out, he would be dead.

“I have something on this afternoon, and the afternoon date is at Lanshan Tea House. You go in my place.”

“What? I go for you?”

“Yeah! What’s wrong with that? Are you unwilling?” Xu Xiyi’s eyes narrowed slightly as he gave his brother a super ‘warm’ smile, moving his hands a little and making a complicated gesture.

Xu Junfeng shuddered and quickly shook his head, “No objections at all, no objections. It’s my honor to share Big Brother’s worries.”

As if basking in the spring breeze, Xu Xiyi affectionately tousled his brother’s hair, praising, “My brother is so obedient. From now on, all of Big Brother’s dates are in your hands.”

Xu Junfeng shuddered even more violently.

“What’s the matter? Cold?” Lu Jianan had returned from ordering and saw Xu Junfeng shivering, thinking he was cold.

“It’s not cold.” Xu Xiyi nodded politely to Lu Jianan.

“Oh!” Facing Xu Xiyi, she still felt quite pressured, nothing like the relaxed way she spoke with Xu Junfeng. Even the reason she had for calling Xu Junfeng out today was difficult to bring up.

Soon, the proprietress began serving the dishes, and as the food was nearly all on the table, the three ate in silence. Nobody spoke. Lu Jianan wanted to ease the atmosphere, but with Xu Xiyi sitting there, it was like a mountain loomed over them.

A mountain that suffocated you with its icy presence.

Lu Jianan tried several times to no avail, and ultimately gave up.

Fortunately, Xu Xiyi ate quickly and was the first to finish and leave. Before departing, he even settled the bill, and Lu Jianan did not fuss about paying. The meal wasn’t expensive, and no one was fretting over the cost.

It wasn’t until Xu Xiyi had finally left that Lu Jianan let out a huge sigh of relief, “Whew! Finally, he’s gone. Why did you bring your Big Brother here?”

“Heh… just my bad luck.” He had intended to set up Big Brother, but ended up trapping himself instead.

“You came in with a spring in your step, and now you look completely down on your luck.” Lu Jianan had a keen eye for these things.

“Spill it! What did you want to talk to me about?”

“I heard something happened to Zishan in the Province, and I wanted to ask you what happened. Is it serious?” Although Song Zishan had turned her back on her mercilessly, when Lu Jianan heard about her troubles, her first thought was still concern.

But she was isolated now, pushed out of the circle. She was out of the loop, and others who knew were reluctant to tell her. The only person she could ask was Xu Junfeng.
