Chapter 909 Coward

Despite being able to perceive Feng Wan's discontent, Lu Jingyuan was powerless to do anything about it. Certain things could not be explained, regardless of how the elderly woman interpreted them.

While they conversed, the dishes were served. Although it was lunchtime, the chef had prepared many dishes because they had guests coming over. However, the atmosphere was a bit tense, and everyone seemed to lack the appetite to fully enjoy the spread of delicacies.

Just then, Nan Zhengde came out of his study. He knew that Lu Jingyuan was visiting, but he had no intention of speaking to her directly.

He did not think it was necessary to make a fuss over Nan Xing and Lu Jingyuan's love affair.

Unless it was time to talk about marriage, the old man thought it was unnecessary to inquire.

After all, Nan Xing had dated many girls, and if he had to approve of every one of them, it would be very exhausting for him.

“Grandpa, this is Lu Jingyuan,” Nan Xing introduced her.

“Hello, Old Master Nan. I'm Lu Jingyuan.” The woman stood up and bowed.

The elderly man detected a tense atmosphere in the room and inferred that the conversation between his wife and the girl was not going well.

“Hello, please sit down,” the old man replied warmly.

Lu Jingyuan took a seat but didn't touch the food in front of her. She had no appetite and hadn't wanted to come in the first place.

She only agreed to show up because of Ning Ran, and now she felt frustrated with the awkward situation.

“Ms. Lu, please help yourself and eat well,” the old man warmly invited.

Lu Jingyuan reluctantly complied after saying thank you to Nan Zhengde.

However, after taking a few bites of food, she put down her chopsticks.

As someone with a habit of idling and disliked socializing, she found the environment extremely uncomfortable and couldn't eat anymore.

“Have you finished eating?” Nan Xing asked Lu Jingyuan.

“Mm, I'm not hungry. You guys can take your time,” she replied.
