In Mrs. Lu’s impression, Lu Jinxuan has never been like this before.
"Have you said enough?" Lu Jinxuan stared at Mrs. Lu, with a hint of hatred in his eyes, "Want to say it’s for my own good? Mom, enough is enough! If you keep going like this, you’ll drain all my feelings for you! Do you really want to push to that point?"
"..."
Mrs. Lu’s face changed abruptly, furious, "You... great! Look at what you’ve beco now?"
Lu Jinxuan sneered, curling his lips, "That sentence should be what I say to you!"
"You..." Mrs. Lu was enraged, pointing at Lu Jinxuan, "Can’t you see yourself? You used to be a calm, self-controlled good child, but now? For a contemptible woman, you’ve made yourself so out of control! What have you beco?"
Lu Jinxuan lowered his eyes, his expression icy.
"Then what should I be like? Like you, cold-blooded... unloved? With no one to love?"
He didn’t want to argue with his mother here anymore, frowning irritably, he turned and walked away.
"Lu Jinxuan!"
Mrs. Lu called after him, but he didn’t react at all. Mrs. Lu collapsed on the sofa, muttering to herself in a daze, "Did I do sothing wrong? No, I didn’t... It was supposed to be like this! One day, you’ll understand!"

Tokyo University campus.
Yu Sangwan was on the phone with Pei Pei, "Haven’t there been any recently?"
Pei Pei shook her head helplessly, "Wanwan, you have classes, and your ti is limited... Don’t worry, as soon as there is sothing suitable, I’ll take it for you."
"Okay." Yu Sangwan couldn’t hide her disappointnt, "Peipei, please keep an eye out for , I really need money."
"Don’t worry, don’t you trust ?"
After hanging up the phone, Yu Sangwan sat on a bench under the trees eating a hamburger. Her delicate eyebrows never relaxed, she desperately needed money. Life had been difficult since she left Lu Jinxuan. Her father didn’t want to stay in the hospital, and she needed to save money quickly to rent a place, to move out of the An Family.
She also needed to find a reliable caregiver, which all required money.
"Sigh..." Yu Sangwan sighed deeply, setting aside her hamburger, really having no appetite.
...
Donghua CEO Office.
Tang Yueze was putting away his docunts, preparing to leave.
"Yuezhe." Lu Jinxuan called out to Tang Yueze.
"Yes, Young Master."
Lu Jinxuan’s slender fingers tapped on the desk, his spirit wasn’t great, he had been relying on aromatherapy these days, still resisting the therapist.
"How is she?"
This ’she’ naturally referred to Yu Sangwan. Tang Yueze had been waiting for him to ask, "Reporting to the Young Master, Miss Yu has been busy with part-ti jobs. However, she is a newcor and is only part-ti, recently there hasn’t been much work..."
Implying that Yu Sangwan must be having financial issues.
Lu Jinxuan furrowed his brows, looked at Tang Yueze, "Do you know what to do?"
"Uh... yes." Tang Yueze understood, "I understand, sir."
Lu Jinxuan tiredly rubbed his forehead, "You can go out now."
"Yes." Tang Yueze bowed, thought for a mont, and then asked, "Young Master, don’t let Miss Yu know?"
Lu Jinxuan was stunned, giving a bitter smile, "No need, she would think I have impure motives."
"But..." Tang Yueze frowned, "Your body, Young Master..."
"Indeed!" Lu Jinxuan sighed lightly, looking out the window as if talking to himself, "Maybe, I have to risk my life for her to believe that she is more than just my ’sleeping pill’."
His desolate look made Tang Yueze feel sorry, his nose turned sour, "Young Master..."
Lu Jinxuan said no more, just quietly gazing out the window.
"I’ll be going then."
Tang Yueze left sadly, shaking his head in helplessness.
With Tang Yueze’s arrangents, Yu Sangwan soon received a call from Pei Pei.
"Wanwan! Good news, there are several print advertisents offering good salaries!" Pei Pei’s voice was excited.
Yu Sangwan was also very happy, "Really? There was no news just yesterday? But, did you tell them I have to attend classes..."
"Hehe, you’re lucky! They said no rush... they can work with your schedule."
"Really?" Yu Sangwan stood up excitedly, covering her mouth, "That’s so thoughtful! Peipei, thank you... I’ll buy you a big cup of bubble tea once I earn so money!"
Pei Pei laughed, "Haha... sure! I won’t be polite with you."
On the weekend, Yu Sangwan had ti and went to the location with the new advertising gig.
The shoot lasted two days and one night, busy during the day, and needed to rest locally at night. This ad featured a group of girls, and Yu Sangwan was one of them, the quietest among them.
Packing up her luggage in the room, her roommate linked her arm with Yu Sangwan’s, whispering, "Hey, look... the one next to the director! Can’t wait to get all over him..."
Yu Sangwan knew what she ant, but she wasn’t used to talking about people behind their backs, "No way! She’s just a bit lively."
"Hah!" The girl didn’t care, "I’ll bet you a pack of spicy strips, they definitely have sothing going on, just wait and see!"
As it turned out, she was right.
In the evening, several of them were playing cards in Yu Sangwan’s room. Yu Sangwan found it noisy, needing to study for exams, so she took her books outside, wanting to find a quiet place in the lobby.
However, as soon as she left, the door to the opposite room opened.
The director ca out, not flustered seeing her, "Yu Sangwan."
"Yes, director." Yu Sangwan hugged her books, nodding cautiously.
The director pulled a large bill from his pocket, handing it to her, "Go buy sothing for ."
"Huh? Buy what?" Yu Sangwan was stunned, not understanding.
"Tsk!" The director frowned, "The sort of thing used between n and won! Can you believe this hotel doesn’t have any?"
Yu Sangwan’s face instantly turned red, she and the director were truly not on the sa wavelength. She hadn’t reacted when the director had already shoved the money into her hand, "Quick! It’s for imdiate use!"
"Uh... alright." Yu Sangwan was imnsely embarrassed, but couldn’t refuse, clutching the money tightly.
There was a convenience store in the hotel, Yu Sangwan, as a girl, clutched the money, taking several boxes off the shelf, feeling the clerk’s gaze burning holes into her face as she paid. It was just her imagination; the clerk was long used to such things.
"Thank you." Yu Sangwan took the items and hurried out.
As soon as she left, a tall and handso figure walked in. Just standing there, the whole small store imdiately seed drab and colorless, the clerk even stared at him blankly.
Lu Jinxuan was oblivious, lifting his chin slightly, "The girl just now, what did she buy?"
"Ah..." The clerk was stunned, pointing outside, "She... bought... condoms."
Lu Jinxuan’s face darkened, the temperature of the convenience store dropping below freezing.
