Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 77 Misunderstood

The sky gradually dimmed, and the afterglow of the sunset sprinkled into the room.

Lu Nanzhi woke up from a deep sleep, rubbed his drowsy head, supported his body and sat up, and was about to get out of bed, when his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the person on the bed!
Trembling in shock, he looked at him incredulously, unable to recover for a moment.

Why did Shen Lanze appear in her room?And still share the bed with her?
Blinking her eyes, trying to recall what happened during the day, she and Jiang Ziqi left the tavern drunk after drinking, met Xu Beiting, was carried back by Shen Lanze, and then...

Lu Nanzhi tapped his forehead angrily, it was terrible!What a shame this time!
She didn't dare to think about it anymore, lifted the quilt carefully, and tiptoed out of bed.

"what!"

As soon as she got out of the bed, her legs went limp and she fell to the ground. The pain made her grin her teeth, but she couldn't cry out, so she had to grit her teeth and endure.

Lu Nanzhi gritted her teeth and limped towards the door. She had to get out of this ghostly place immediately!
As soon as she took a step, she suddenly felt a gust of cool wind, and she couldn't help shivering.

Looking back, I saw that the person who was sleeping soundly had woken up at some point, and at the same time took out a fire pocket from his arms to light the candles in the room.

Lu Nanzhi smiled awkwardly, a little at a loss, not knowing what to say to ease the atmosphere.

With a smile on Shen Lanze's face, he leaned lazily against the wall, "Run when you wake up, this is nothing like you after drinking."

"I don't know that I can drink so badly." Lu Nanzhi said with a wry smile,
It may be that the alcohol concentration is too high, although she rarely drinks alcohol, she will not be drunk after two drinks.

"Really?" Shen Lanze raised his eyebrows, staring at her body for a moment, a trace of complexity flashed deep in his eyes.

Lu Nanzhi lowered his head and found that he was only wearing dirty clothes, with loose shoulders and bare shoulders. He gathered up the dirty clothes, saw the outer shirt on the shelf, walked over to take it off and put it on.

"I……"

As soon as Lu Nanzhi raised his hand, he was grabbed by Shen Lanze's big palm, turned around, and was pushed against the wall by him.

"Shen Lanze, what are you doing?" Lu Nanzhi's eyes widened, and he looked at Jun Yan who was close at hand in disbelief, his eyes seemed to be burning with flames.

Shen Lanze narrowed his eyes and looked at her dangerously, "Do you know how dangerous it is for a drunk girl to go out? Fortunately, I brought you back this time. What would happen if someone else brought you back?"

"I didn't know I would get drunk, and even if you don't go, Miss Jiang will send me back." Lu Nanzhi couldn't help retorting.

Shen Lanze looked at the unrepentant person, and couldn't help tightening the hand holding her wrist, "What if Xu Beiting was the one who sent you back?"

"What's wrong with Mr. Xu, you can be Liu Xiahui, how is he worse than you?" Lu Nanzhi didn't understand why he always had trouble with Mr. Xu.

There is no conflict between them, but for some reason, the two just don't like each other.

Shen Lanze was silent for a moment when he heard her words, slowly let go of his hand, turned around and left the room angrily.

There was a sound of closing the door with a "bang", shaking the house and making Lu Nanzhi's eardrums buzz.

Looking at his leaving back, Lu Nanzhi was a little at a loss, why was he inexplicably angry again?

Is it because of what you just said?
After Shen Lanze came out of the room, he left Lu's mansion and came to the small courtyard they had bought.

Seeing the man in black under the big tree in the courtyard was not at all surprised, and walked straight over.

He clenched his fist and hit the man in black, who dodged quickly.

The two fought for a few moves, and Shen Lanze gradually lost the wind. The man in black slapped Shen Lanze on the shoulder. Although he didn't use his internal strength, he took a few steps back and barely stopped.

"What's the matter today, master? The moves are completely wrong." The man in black felt that the master's mood was not right today, and his moves were a little messy, obviously affected by his mood.

"It's okay, what about the investigation?" Shen Lanze asked, patting the dust off his body.

The man in black lowered his eyes: "There are no clues yet, but my subordinates found out that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials had received a letter. It was because of this letter that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials found gold, silver and jewels to frame the Shen family."

"Continue to investigate. A mere minister of the Ministry of Officials does not have that much ability to frame the dignified Taifu. There must be someone else behind it."

Shen Lanze's gaze became cold, as sharp as a blade. This time when he returned to the capital, he was determined to vindicate the Shen family.

Because of this, he dared not express the love in his heart, fearing that he would involve Lu Nanzhi in this dispute, and even more afraid of causing harm to her.

"Yes." The man in black disappeared into the courtyard.

That night, Shen Lanze did not return to the Lu residence, but sat in the rocking chair and looked at the dark night sky.

In his mind, he was thinking about the little things since he met Lu Nanzhi. Her kindness, innocence, stubbornness, gentleness, and simplicity. laugh.

The next day, the sky was bright.

Lu Nanzhi had had breakfast, but he didn't see Shen Lanze. After asking, he found out that he hadn't returned all night.

This made her a little worried that something would happen.

She was about to go out to look for it, and as soon as she came out of the gate of the Lu residence, she saw Shen Lanze in green clothes leaning against the stone lion's head, looking down at the ground, wondering what she was thinking.

"Lan Ze?" Lu Nanzhi called out to him.

Shen Lanze turned around, saw her worried face, and was slightly taken aback.

"Where did you go? Why didn't you come back all night?"

"I went to the courtyard." Shen Lanze replied briefly.

Sensing his indifferent tone, Lu Nanzhi clenched his lower lip and said, "Yesterday I didn't mean to compare you with Mr. Xu, I just said it casually."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, he is a gentleman in your eyes, and I am a villain." Shen Lanze smiled faintly, turned and left.

Looking at his lonely back, Lu Nanzhi felt a pang of sadness in his heart, did he misunderstand his relationship with Xu Beiting?
Lu Nanzhi hurried to catch up, "Lan Ze, wait."

Shen Lanze didn't want to listen to her explanation, and walked forward at a faster pace, hiding in a corner, looking at the people looking around, his expression dimmed.

Lu Nanzhi chased after him and there was no trace of Shen Lanze. He looked around for a few times and continued to run forward.

Shen Lanze leaned stiffly against the wall, her cheeks were tense, her lips were pursed into a straight line, and the haze in her eyes was even heavier.

"Master Shen?" Ruo Shiyu looked at the person in the corner and called softly.

Shen Lanze turned his head slowly, glanced at Ruo Shiyu with indifference and alienation, and was about to leave the blocked path.

Ruo Shiyu walked in front of him and leaned slightly, "Thank you Mr. Shen for saving that day."

"Miss Ruo may remember wrongly, I never saved you." Shen Lanze walked past her indifferently, without any nostalgia.

Ruo Shiyu chased after her and said, "Are you afraid that Miss Lu will be angry if you don't admit it?"

Shen Lanze stopped and looked sideways at Ruo Shiyu, with sharp eyes: "My business has nothing to do with you, I hope Miss Ruo will not pester me in the future."

Ruo Shiyu lowered her eyes to cover the sadness in her eyes when she heard his heartless words.
