Feast for Shengsheng

Chapter 445 Proposal

Lu Shiyan wanted to cooperate with the Zhou family because of the Zhou family’s resources.

The Zhou family stands at the top of the pyramid in the capital, and no one can shake it.

But it is difficult for outsiders to chant sutras in the capital, and it is extremely difficult for Lu Shiyan to enter the capital.

The relationships here are extremely complicated. If you are not careful, you may stand on the wrong side and lose everything.

In this situation, if the Zhou family could provide protection, Lu Shiyan would be able to proceed much more smoothly.

The Lu family has a piece of land in the capital, which is now located on the East Third Ring Road. It is a piece of land that many people are eyeing.

This is already a prime location, and any building you build here will be worth a fortune.

Previously, the Zhou family had almost completely withdrawn from real estate. It was not until Song Xiao joined the Zhou family that the Zhou family resumed this business.

So before this, Zhou Jingyan had never thought about real estate.

All in all, there is not much competition between the Zhou family and the Lu family, they just complement each other.

If we can cooperate, it will only be icing on the cake.

But what the Zhou family needs least is cooperation.

Lu Shiyan has been unable to enter the door for many years.

But now, Zhou Jingyan proposed that Lu Shiyan give Nan Sheng a plot of land in the third ring road of the capital as a betrothal gift.

This is not a question of money, but a question of resources.

If Lu Shiyan agreed, then he would have no advantage in the capital.

This is a choice, and it is also the sincerity that the Zhou family wants.

"Why, didn't Mr. Lu vow to marry Nan Sheng and didn't want to let Nan Sheng suffer? Now that the Zhou family has asked for a betrothal gift, Mr. Lu is reluctant to give up the gift?" Zhou Jingyan sneered, not being polite at all.

Lu Shiyan was not angry and looked at Zhou Jingyan calmly.

Then he spoke: "Since the Zhou family wants it, then I will naturally give it to them. After all, as Mr. Zhou said, I don't want to let Nan Sheng down."

This surprised Zhou Jingyan.

For a moment, he couldn't figure out Lu Shiyan's thoughts.

But on the surface, Zhou Jingyan did not show his emotions, just watched calmly.

"Okay, I'll wait for Mr. Lu's sincerity." Zhou Jingyan said indifferently.

Lu Shiyan hummed, "This Spring Festival, I will bring Nan Sheng back to the Zhou family to propose marriage."

Zhou Jingyan glanced at Lu Shiyan, said nothing, and turned away.

Lu Shiyan remained calm and stood there motionless.

Although the land in the capital was valuable before, it was far less valuable than Nan Sheng's body.

Using this piece of land to exchange for the Zhou family's resources is not a loss for Lu Shiyan.

What's more, as long as Nan Sheng is Mrs. Lu, the Lu family and the Zhou family will always be involved.

Lu Shiyan is a very cunning person and has his own considerations for everything.

There is no room for even the slightest mistake.

Soon, Lu Shiyan watched Zhou Jingyan leave, then pushed the door open and entered the ward.

Nan Sheng was probably tired, so she leaned against the hospital bed and dozed off with her eyes closed.

But she was a light sleeper, and when she heard any movement, Nan Sheng immediately opened her eyes.

Lu Shiyan's eyes fell on Nan Sheng, and the next moment, he strode towards Nan Sheng.

Almost as soon as Lu Shiyan approached Nan Sheng, Nan Sheng felt the tense feeling come over her again.

But Nan Sheng didn't show it on the surface.

It's because she has been too good at hiding her emotions during this period of time.

There was no outburst in front of Lu Shiyan at all.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Lu Shiyan asked in a low voice.

Nan Sheng shook her head mechanically.

"Did I wake you up?" Lu Shiyan looked at Nan Sheng gently.

The big hand naturally fell on Nan Sheng's cheek and gently stroked it.

He leaned over and looked at Nan Sheng, tenderness in his eyes, as if he wanted to devour Nan Sheng bit by bit.

Nan Sheng was not used to Lu Shiyan being like this; he was too gentle.

This kind of tenderness is fatal to Nan Sheng.

She knew very well that as long as Lu Shiyan cast his net, no one would be able to break free from his confinement.

"No." Nan Sheng calmed down and replied to Lu Shiyan, "I wasn't asleep in the first place."

Lu Shiyan hummed, "I asked the housekeeper to prepare some food. You can eat some later. Once the doctor confirms that you are okay, I will take you home."

As he spoke, Lu Shiyan laughed lightly: "I know you don't like being in the hospital."

It seemed like Lu Shiyan remembered every one of Nan Sheng's preferences.

And every detail will be arranged.

Nan Sheng couldn't say whether this situation was good or bad.

In the end, Nan Sheng remained silent.

The housekeeper quickly brought Nan Sheng some porridge and side dishes.

She had been busy at the dinner party that night and had only drunk a little juice. Now she was really hungry.

So Nan Sheng didn't refuse and lowered her head to eat in small bites.

"Be careful. You're an adult, and you still eat from the edge." Lu Shiyan sighed helplessly.

He took out a tissue and wiped the rice grains from Nan Sheng's mouth.

Nan Sheng bit her lip passively, letting Lu Shiyan do what he did without saying a word.

But Nan Sheng's appetite was not very good, so she put down the spoon after taking only a few bites.

It seems that Nan Sheng only needs a little bit of fullness now.

It's not even about feeling full, it's about maintaining vital signs.

Nan Sheng thought that when she had nothing to worry about, these vital signs would probably no longer need to be maintained.

When Nan Sheng put down the spoon, Lu Shiyan frowned.

A small bowl of porridge, only eight-tenths of a bowl.

And now only half is left.

"You eat too little, Nan Sheng." Lu Shiyan said quietly.

Nan Sheng shook her head: "I can't eat anymore."

"Be good and eat a little more." Lu Shiyan was coaxing.

Then he picked up the spoon and the bowl and fed Nan Sheng mouthful by mouthful with his own hands.

This action contained a hint of coercion, not allowing Nan Sheng to refuse.

Nan Sheng was lying on the hospital bed, with nowhere to retreat.

So, in the end, Nan Sheng was forced to open her mouth and eat the porridge that Lu Shiyan brought to her mouth.

Only when the small bowl of porridge was empty did Lu Shiyan let Nan Sheng go.

He put down his bowl and chopsticks.

I don't know when the butler came in and handled the matter silently.

Lu Shiyan was still accompanying Nan Sheng: "If you don't want to sleep, just chat for a while. You can sleep when you're tired."

Nan Sheng didn't respond.

Lu Shiyan didn't mind and continued, "I told Mr. Zhou that I would take you to the capital for the Spring Festival, and then I would go to the Zhou family in person to pay the betrothal gift and discuss our marriage."

Nan Sheng was quiet for a while, and her lips moved several times.

But in the end, Nan Sheng didn't say anything and just leaned there quietly.

Her opinion doesn't matter.

Lu Shiyan's words were to tell him the result, not to discuss it.

"The wedding will probably be in March, after the rainy season. According to Zhou family tradition, the wedding will be held in both the capital and Haicheng, which will be very tiring." Lu Shiyan chatted casually with Nan Sheng.

But the content is all based on the wedding.

Nan Sheng thought, if it were before, she would definitely be very excited.

But now, Nan Sheng remained calm.

I always feel like I am listening to outsiders' affairs rather than things that are related to me.
