Chapter 280 Misstep
"Call the police?" Lu Yunfan was shocked and angry. "You are my fiancée. Even if I did something, it would be a natural thing. Why would you call the police?"
"You're ignorant of the law, aren't you? Forgetting your fiancée. Even if they're married, forcing someone to have sex without their consent is rape. Even rape within marriage is rape!"
Shen Lan said, and snorted coldly: "You keep saying that we are an engaged couple, but are we really?"
"Isn't it? This is a well-known fact!" Lu Yunfan was anxious, with the corners of his eyes slightly red.
Shen Lan's expression was cold: "Of course not. Child marriage is just a verbal agreement, not a marriage contract. Does this sound familiar?"
Lu Yunfan opened his mouth and his face turned pale.
"When you were with Zhou Xinran, why didn't I publicly stand up and emphasize my status as your fiancée?"
Besides her parents' reasons, she didn't want to be high-profile, but the more important and direct reason was...
"Your mother has been emphasizing to me that child marriages are just private arrangements, not formal or legal. You also said that Zhou Xinran is not a mistress, and that you two are a legitimate couple."
"Since you said that at the beginning, don't say I'm your fiancée now."
Lu Yunfan felt guilty, his eyes flickering: "But, but we have already held an engagement party and informed everyone in the circle."
Speaking of this, Shen Lan smiled.
This laughter made Lu Yunfan feel uneasy.
"The engagement party didn't take place. I remember when my uncle announced it, he only mentioned that you had recovered, but didn't announce our engagement."
Lu Yunfan was shocked and thought about it carefully.
It seemed to be true. When Lu Chuan was halfway through his speech, Xiao Yun fainted, and then all the guests were evacuated, and the banquet was aborted.
He didn’t think anything of it before, but now when he thought about it, Lu Yunfan felt a shock in his heart.
Was it really a coincidence that Xiao Yun fainted at that time?
Before I had time to think deeply, Shen Lan's voice rang out again.
"Didn't you and Zhou Xinran also have a secret affair in the back garden? Do you think this engagement party counts?"
This sentence made Lu Yunfan's mind go blank. He didn't dare to look at Shen Lan's face. He just lowered his head and said over and over again: "I'm sorry..."
Shen Lan frowned in disgust: "The word 'sorry' is actually quite disgusting when said too much. To be honest, if you had continued to pursue Zhou Xinran, I would still look up to you."
"You pursue someone so vigorously at first, and then you turn around and say it was a mistake. You can't even figure out who you like. It's like a prodigal son who has returned home. It's really boring."
Lu Yunfan's heart was in tatters and shattered beyond recognition.
While he was stunned, Shen Lan pushed him out and quickly locked the door.
After waiting at the door for a minute, and seeing that Lu Yunfan didn't knock, he felt relieved and went back to sleep.
Lu Yunfan stood quietly at the door, reached into his jacket pocket, and took out a small velvet box.
He gently opened the box and looked at the beautiful and exquisite ring inside, his eyes sore.
Before, he had always refused to acknowledge Shen Lan's identity and was reluctant to attend the engagement banquet. The engagement ring he prepared was just bought casually.
Ever since he realized that he liked Shen Lan, Lu Yunfan specially asked someone to design a ring for him. It took a month and he only received it this morning.
I originally wanted to give Shen Lan a surprise, but now it seems that if I give it to her, this surprise might turn into a shock.
Lu Yunfan closed the lid and put the ring back into his pocket.
Maybe he needs to be nicer to Shen Lan, and even nicer. She is a soft-hearted person. As long as he does well, she will definitely be moved. Even if his attitude is a little soft, he is confident that he can move her with his sincerity over the years.
Early the next morning, the makeup artist and stylist team arranged by the Lu family arrived.
Shen Lan didn't sleep well at night and felt dizzy. When she saw the dress prepared by the Lu family, her mood became even worse.
This time the dress was not as perfunctory as before, but rather very delicate and beautiful.
But the problem is that she is too delicate and beautiful, with large areas of her back, chest and arms exposed. That means she not only has to cover her entire body with black powder, but also has to be careful all the time to prevent it from being rubbed off to prevent her disguise from being exposed.
The Lu family also assigned a makeup artist to her. Shen Lan didn't know the makeup artist's background and didn't dare to ask her to help her put on makeup.
Moreover, makeup artists are all professionals. As long as they are close to her, they can tell that she has put on disguise on her face without even touching it.
Tsk, what a mistake.
Xiao Yun's intimidation yesterday actually brought her trouble. If she had just been perfunctory as usual, it would have been easier to get away with it.
"I don't wear makeup, and I won't wear this dress. I'm ugly to begin with, and if I do this, people will laugh at me and make me look ugly."
Shen Lan's words made the stylist and makeup artist look embarrassed.
"Miss Shen, my makeup skills are pretty good. I can make you look very beautiful. I think you have a good foundation. As long as your skin is whiter and you use some makeup to embellish it, you will definitely be a beauty."
"Yes, Miss Shen, you have a good figure. This dress can show off your figure to the greatest extent. Please trust our professionalism."
