Lu Jinxuan has never spent so much effort trying to please a woman in his life, and yet, Yu Sangwan still doesn’t appreciate it!
Fine, he won’t force it! In anger, he left, choosing a path opposite to hers.
"..." Yu Sangwan turned around, looking at his back, her heart ached faintly... Bastard!
As Lu Jinxuan walked towards the parking lot, he bumped into the hurriedly arriving Tang Yueze.
"Young Master!" Tang Yueze’s expression was flustered.
Lu Jinxuan frowned, sensing sothing was off. It wasn’t often that sothing or soone could stir Tang Yueze this way.
"Young Master, we just received news that Madam... Madam is here!"
"..."
Lu Jinxuan’s eyes narrowed as he unconsciously raised his hand to rub his forehead.
"What did you tell her?"
Tang Yueze shook his head, "I told her I wasn’t with you at the mont."
His response was quite reasonable. Given the many instances where Tang Yueze needed to intervene, he often had no way of knowing Lu Jinxuan’s whereabouts.
Lu Jinxuan’s eyebrows furrowed tighter, deep in thought. When he looked up, Tang Yueze got a bad feeling.
"Take all of these." Lu Jinxuan took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to him, "The wallet’s in the car, co with to get it!"
"..." Tang Yueze was stunned, "Young Master, what are you...?"
Lu Jinxuan continued walking to the parking lot, "Don’t reveal anything in front of Madam... As long as I don’t use the identity of Lu Jinxuan, and you don’t ask or tell... it won’t be easy for her to find ."
Though logical, Tang Yueze was still worried!
"But young master, where are you going? You can’t risk your safety! You can’t do this just to spite Madam..."
Lu Jinxuan paused, sighed softly, "You know, my mother can’t be reasoned with, don’t you?"
Tang Yueze was taken aback and nodded dumbly, "Yes, I understand."
"Alas." Lu Jinxuan let out a light sigh, "But she’s my mother, and in so matters... I can only handle it this way. If she can’t find , she’ll leave naturally."
"Then..." Tang Yueze nodded, "Young Master, without a card, phone, or your identity, where will you go?"
To ensure Madam Lu doesn’t find him, he must avoid anything related to the Lu Family.
Lu Jinxuan thought for a mont, a smile tugging at his lips, "There is one place... only we know."
"..." Tang Yueze realized, and if that’s the case, he should be at ease.
Original House.
In the living room, it was so quiet, you could hear a pin drop.
Madam Lu sat upright, her right hand resting on her left, slender fingers gently caressing the ring finger of her left hand adorned with a Lady Di diamond ring. Her eyes were cast downward, with a faint, ambiguous smile on her lips. Lu Feixuan and Ji Qing stood behind her, facing Tang Yueze and the butler.
"Are you planning not to speak?"
Madam Lu glanced at Tang Yueze, "You’re Jinxuan’s shadow, losing your master yet remaining so calm? Do you think I’m foolish?"
With a loud ’thud’, Tang Yueze knelt to the ground.
His expression remained firm, "Madam, I lost track of the young master’s whereabouts, which is indeed my negligence. Please punish !"
"..."
Madam Lu felt a breath stuck in her chest, her jaw trembling slightly, "Good, good! A truly loyal shadow! Do you think I’m really reluctant to lay a hand on you?"
As she spoke, she turned her head and commanded, "Co! Take this impudent fellow out and beat him!"
Behind her, Lu Feixuan and Ji Qing were both terrified. Ji Qing gestured to Lu Feixuan, who bit her lower lip and nodded, rushing to hug her mother, "Mom, don’t! Brother Yuezhe is handling matters for big brother, he can’t be hurt! If he gets hurt, many things will be difficult to manage!"
Madam Lu was in such a rage, even her daughter’s persuasion didn’t work!
"Hit him! Beat him first and then we’ll talk!"
"Yes!"
n dressed in black uniforms ca up, holding Tang Yueze to drag him out. Tang Yueze’s face was sullen, but he gritted his teeth.
Lu Feixuan anxiously shook her head at him, "Brother Yuezhe! At least say sothing! Where is big brother? Tell us, and you won’t be beaten! Do you think Mom will make things difficult for big brother? You’re being stubborn for no reason!"
Tang Yueze remained silent, the young lady didn’t understand anything! Madam was precisely making things difficult for the young master!
Seeing his stubbornness, Madam Lu’s anger flared even more, "Hit him! Hit him hard!"
Tang Yueze was dragged out, and soon, the courtyard echoed with the sounds of a whip cracking.
Lu Feixuan stomped anxiously, tears streaming down, "Mom, stop it... Alright, stop it! If big brother finds out, he’ll be even more distant from you... He’s always treated Brother Yuezhe like his own brother!"
Madam Lu looked at her daughter, shaking her head gently, "Feixuan, I advise you... there are so thoughts you cannot have!"
"..." Lu Feixuan froze, closing her mouth under her mother’s scrutiny, but her tears didn’t stop.
Madam Lu rapidly spun the Lady Di diamond ring on her finger and instructed Ji Qing, "Ji Qing, inform them and make sure they find the young master!"
"Yes." Ji Qing nodded, turning to leave.
As she passed through the courtyard, she glanced towards Tang Yueze’s direction. Tang Yueze was sprawled on a long bench, his coat removed, and the previously white shirt was now a red patch...
Ji Qing couldn’t bear to look any longer and quickly walked away.
As night fell, Yu Sangwan left Tokyo University after watching the performance and headed back to her apartnt.
The voice-activated lights in the hallway had been broken since last week, and the managent hadn’t co to fix them.
Yu Sangwan slowed her steps, feeling her way toward her door. Suddenly, she tripped on sothing, almost falling!
"Oh no!" Yu Sangwan leaned against the wall, gasping in fright, "What is this?"
"Tsk!"
In the darkness, a frustrated sigh ca from the floor.
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan froze for a mont. That voice, why does it sound so familiar? Who is it?
She pulled out her phone from her backpack, turned on the flashlight, and aid it towards the source of the sound. Upon seeing the person, she jumped back in shock, instinctively shouting, "Ah... you!"
"Tsk!" Lu Jinxuan was leaning against the wall, sitting on the ground, one leg stretched out, the other bent. He hadn’t brought his keys and had been sitting alone in the dark for a long ti. Being suddenly exposed to light made his eyes uncomfortable, and he wasn’t in the best mood.
"Move the phone away!"
"Oh!"
Yu Sangwan nodded, dazedly moving the phone aside a bit. Suddenly, a thought flashed in her mind, "You didn’t follow all the way here, did you? You really are... unshakable! In simple terms, you are shaless!"
"Ha!"
Lu Jinxuan leaned back, his laughter devoid of warmth.
"You really think highly of yourself! Do you think you’re so captivating beauty?"
Saying this, he pointed to the apartnt next door.
"..." Yu Sangwan’s face flushed hot, embarrassed beyond words. She rembered that Lu Jinxuan’s apartnt was right next door.
Che! Rich people, having lots of properties—what’s so great about that?
"Hmph!"
Yu Sangwan snorted coldly, stepped over Lu Jinxuan to stand in front of her own door and took out the key to unlock it. Before stepping inside, she glanced at Lu Jinxuan from the corner of her eye, curiosity rising. What’s wrong with him? Sitting here so late, instead of going inside, what was he doing?
Forget it, what does it have to do with her?
She’d already decided to break up, so she mustn’t go soft or ddle!
Pushing the door open, she resolutely went inside.
"Phew!"
At the door, Lu Jinxuan rested his long arm on his knee, turned his head to watch Yu Sangwan close the door, and let out a long sigh.
Inside the apartnt, the lights ca on as Yu Sangwan put on an apron and started cooking.
Busy at the counter, but her mind was preoccupied with the figure at the door — Lu Jinxuan. Is he still sitting out there? Why is he so strange? Do all rich heirs have so peculiarities?
"Ah! Just ignore it!"
Shaking her head, Yu Sangwan cooked and ate.
While washing dishes, a sudden realization struck her—why was there so much extra rice in the cooker?
"Damn it! She told herself not to care anymore!"
Anxious and restless, Yu Sangwan almost drove herself crazy with her thoughts. Deciding finally, she turned to open the door.
Unexpectedly, as the door opened... Lu Jinxuan was still in the sa spot, in the sa position as before.
"You..." Yu Sangwan felt helpless, "You didn’t move at all?"
Lu Jinxuan seed not to hear, remaining completely still.
"Hey!" Yu Sangwan got irritated, walked over and shouted at him, "When soone talks to you, at least respond. It’s very rude otherwise!"
Lu Jinxuan raised his eyes, looking at her as if she were a stranger. "Are you talking to ?"
"..."
Yu Sangwan was taken aback. This unfamiliar Lu Jinxuan... gave her a strange feeling she couldn’t quite explain.
Adjusting to the darkness, Lu Jinxuan now appeared sowhat fragile, as if he’d shed so sort of aura, looking like an ordinary man of his age. eting his gaze, his eyes were deeply dark, reflecting light, giving an impression that was surprisingly transparent.
"..."
Yu Sangwan’s heart thudded suddenly, her gaze shifty, she stamred, "Are you... Are you hungry?"
"Hungry." Lu Jinxuan nodded, "Do you have food to share?"
"Oh..." Yu Sangwan sighed, silently cursing herself countless tis in her mind, damning her ager resolve!
"Co in!"
"Alright." Lu Jinxuan nodded, supporting his leg to stand.
As he stood up, he almost stumbled.
"Ah..." He leaned towards Yu Sangwan instinctively, who, surprised, wanted to push him away. "What are you doing? I’m only giving you food, don’t expect anything else!"
Lu Jinxuan frowned, his hand resting on her shoulder, gritting his teeth, "My leg... is numb!"
"..." Yu Sangwan froze, "How long have you been sitting there?"
Lu Jinxuan looked bewildered, shaking his head, "I don’t rember."
"What?" Yu Sangwan laughed despite herself, "Did you lose your mory?"
"Hiss..." Lu Jinxuan couldn’t help but take a sharp breath in, "What should I do? I can’t move!"
Yu Sangwan didn’t know what to do with him, shaking her head with a smile, "Do you know what you look like now?"
"Hmm?" Lu Jinxuan looked puzzled, "What?"
Yu Sangwan squatted down, reaching out to rub his legs, laughingly saying, "Like a kid... a teenager."
Like a child! Lu Jinxuan froze, his eyes vacant... for a long ti.
