Holy City, Guan Chao Mansion.
In the luxurious living room, even the air seed to be refined.
Mrs. Lu, with her exquisite makeup, was adorned with jewelry from head to toe, yet there wasn't a hint of vulgarity about her. Despite being in her fifties, she had maintained herself well, with ti only adding to her charm.
In terms of looks, Lu Jinxuan inherited more of his mother's genes.
At this mont, Mrs. Lu was intently wearing gloves, trimming the flower branches in her hands.
'Snap' — she clipped off the unwanted branches with a cut.
Opposite her, Ji Qing slowly finished talking to her and watched her quietly.
Mrs. Lu put down the scissors, looked up at Ji Qing, a hint of an amused smile on her lips.
"What kind of plan is it? Let see."
"Yes." Ji Qing quickly bent down, took the photocopy of Yu Sangwan's anniversary plan from her briefcase, and handed it to Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu held it in her hands, her slender fingers exuding grace in every movent.
She patiently read it through and couldn't help but smile, "Hehe... this child, not very old, right?"
"Yes." Ji Qing nodded, "Seven years younger than the eldest young master."
"Seven years?" Mrs. Lu was slightly taken aback, as if rembering sothing, "Interesting, Jinxuan seems to have a connection with girls of this age..."
Ji Qing didn't understand, ever since she ca to Guan Chao, she'd never heard of the eldest young master having romantic entanglents. Not to ntion the Holy City, even in Z Country, no socialite could catch the eldest young master's eye.
"Madam, has the eldest young master ever liked a girl?"
Mrs. Lu was slightly startled, collected herself, and looked at Ji Qing.
Ji Qing was an orphan, adopted by Mrs. Lu from a young age. After graduating, she had been working for Mrs. Lu, considered her confidant.
Mrs. Lu thought for a mont and smiled, "It's no wonder you don't know. At that ti, you hadn't co to Guan Chao. It's a matter from long ago; when Jinxuan was very young, he was once engaged... his fiancée was seven years younger than him, holding a milk bottle back then."
"..." Ji Qing was amazed; she really hadn't heard of this before.
"Surprised?" Mrs. Lu shook her head in nostalgia, "Ah... tis and fate are unpredictable, and that engagent couldn't hold. It's actually quite a pity..."
At this point, Mrs. Lu suddenly paused.
Ji Qing was puzzled, "Madam?"
Mrs. Lu collected her thoughts, shook her head, and smiled, "Let's not talk about these old stories. Let's discuss this... this Yu Sangwan, right?"
"Yes." Ji Qing nodded, "She has already moved into the 'Original House'."
Mrs. Lu was taken aback, quite shocked.
Original House, the ancestral ho of the Lu Family!
"Ah..." Mrs. Lu sighed, shaking her head, "What can you do?"
Ji Qing leaned slightly forward, whispered softly in Mrs. Lu's ear. "Madam, actually, no matter how many won there are, they're all just passersby in the eldest young master's life. Just let them sort themselves out... and right now, there's a suitable candidate."
Mrs. Lu raised an eyebrow, "Who?"
Ji Qing softly uttered, "Mu Qinglan."
This na was naturally not unfamiliar to Mrs. Lu. Her son went to Donghua because of this woman, so it indeed made sense.
But she still felt uneasy, "You should still keep an eye on it... the anniversary is coming up, Jinxuan is to get engaged that day, don't let anything derail the good thing with the Gong Family's daughter."
Ji Qing nodded with a smile, "Madam, don't worry, Ji Qing understands."
Guan Chao Mansion, grand and elegant, outside the window was a garden of peach blossoms, artificially cultivated, blooming beautifully in this season...
Near Donghua, villa.
Mu Qinglan's spirit was better, so of the bandages on her head had been removed, though her hair hadn't grown back yet, so she wore a hat.
She didn't know Ji Qing, feeling slightly nervous, "Hello."
Ji Qing gave a formal smile, "Miss Mu, no need to be nervous. Just answer ... do you like the eldest young master?"
"..." Mu Qinglan froze; her expression had already betrayed her feelings.
Ji Qing chuckled lightly, "That's very normal; a man like the eldest young master would be liked by any woman..."
"..." Mu Qinglan was even more shocked. What did she an by that?
Ji Qing gave her no ti to think and continued, "Don't worry, the madam's intention isn't to make you leave the eldest young master. As long as you heed her, the madam assures... there'll definitely be a place for you by the eldest young master's side!"
The madam... Mrs. Lu... Mu Qinglan had an impression of Mrs. Lu, a rather formidable lady. If she wanted to be with Lu Jinxuan, she'd definitely have to pass Mrs. Lu's test.
Mu Qinglan found it hard to speak, "So, what does the madam want to do?"
"Hmph." Ji Qing's smile widened, "Miss Mu, you've misunderstood. The madam isn't asking anything of you; she's reminding you... there's a girl by the eldest young master's side who is threatening your position. You know, the madam doesn't like disobedient girls."
There's a woman by Lu Jinxuan's side?
Mu Qinglan was stunned. She was so focused on recovering that she didn't know this. Recently, Lu Jinxuan often ca to accompany her, showing great care, which even led her to a misconception... of course, a man like Lu Jinxuan wouldn't be without won by his side.
A 27-year-old man, in his pri.
"But..." Mu Qinglan was not very confident, "What can I do? I can't possibly stop the eldest young master!"
Ji Qing bent down, her hands falling on Mu Qinglan's shoulders, looking intently at her.
"No, you can... you absolutely can! Only you can."
"?" Mu Qinglan didn't understand.
Ji Qing nodded, "Think about it, you've been with the eldest young master for seven years, never leaving his side, always helping him... what request of yours would he refuse? Show your seven-year relationship with the eldest young master, and what woman dares compete with you?"
With that, Mu Qinglan understood clearly.
She nodded blankly, "I... I understand."
Ji Qing stood up, nodded, and smiled, "Miss Mu is indeed smart, but rember, everything you do has nothing to do with the madam! Otherwise..."
"Yes." Mu Qinglan hurriedly interrupted, "I know, it definitely won't implicate the madam."
"Good, Miss Mu is indeed perceptive."
SINO website, Yu Sangwan was making a detailed report.
The supervisor ca over and tapped on her desk.
Yu Sangwan stood up instantly, "Supervisor!"
The supervisor looked at her cheerfully, "Don't be nervous, I'm here to inform you! Go ahead and do your work comfortably. Donghua has already transferred the initial funds, three tis more than expected, so let your imagination run wild... go for it!"
'Buzz'—Yu Sangwan's mind was about to explode!
Lu Jinxuan's words echoed constantly in her ears: spend as you like, spend as you like, spend as you like...
Early on the weekend morning, Yu Sangwan rushed to the hospital, needing to change her father's ward today.
Since breaking up with Lu Jinxuan, there was no reason for her father to continue staying in a VIP ward. Her father's condition was stable now; moving to a regular ward and hiring a reliable caregiver would suffice.
Yu Sangwan busied herself with preparations for the move.
Yu Zhiyuan, on the other hand, threw a fit, "I don't want to move! I'm comfortable here, why should I move?"
"Dad!" Yu Sangwan sighed, having to patiently persuade him, "This kind of room is too expensive, a regular room can save a lot of money."
"Humph!" Yu Zhiyuan snorted coldly, "Save money for what? Have you broken up with that guy?"
Yu Zhiyuan hadn't t Lu Jinxuan; it was always Tang Yueze on his behalf. So, the 'guy' Yu Zhiyuan referred to was Tang Yueze.
Hearing her father say this, Yu Sangwan didn't bother to explain, continuing to pack up.
"Humph!" Yu Zhiyuan scoffed, "You sure do know how to push blessings away, don't you? First it was An Zihao, now it's this one with the last na Tang... isn't that right? Can't you do sothing good and hold onto one tightly?"
Such words were unbearable.
Suddenly, Yu Sangwan lost all her enthusiasm for work. Why was she working so hard? It was just him playing with her!
