Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Are You Not Interested in What I Did Yesterday?
Gu Annan’s face darkened as he looked at her for a long ti. It wasn’t until Lu Wanwan couldn’t bear it and planned to get out of the car that he finally said, “Take off your clothes.”
“In your dreams!” Lu Wanwan quickly tightened her jacket around her, clutching it in front of her chest.
“I am not interested in you, so don’t overthink it,” he said coldly. “But having my fiancée’s sister dressed like this is embarrassing to .”
“What does how your fiancée’s sister dresses have to do with you? If you are not interested, what was yesterday all about?” she retorted angrily.
Gu Annan was reminded of last night and imdiately felt his mouth go dry.
He averted his gaze and pursed his lips. “Last night was initiated by you. You didn’t co ho at night, fooled around with soone else, and even wore a man’s clothes. Your reputation is too bad, it could affect my fiancée’s reputation.”
Affect Lu Kexin’s reputation? Nonsense!
Lu Wanwan forcefully tugged at the car door, only to find it locked.
It seed he wouldn’t let her out unless she took the clothes off.
“Fine! I’ll take them off!” She imdiately stripped off her jacket and threw it to the side, unbuckling her seatbelt. “I wish you and your oh-so-pure fiancée a lifeti of happiness! From now on, I’ll stay out all night and fool around every day, and I don’t believe you can do anything about it!”
Gu Annan pressed his lips together, and the temperature inside the car seed to plumt to freezing point.
Lu Wanwan got out of the car and slamd the door behind her with a flourish.
Imdiately, the clothes she had just taken off flew out of the car window, landing perfectly in a trash can as the car sped away.
Watching the disappearing tail lights of the car, Lu Wanwan trembled with anger.
Four years had passed, and he returned only to beco her future brother-in-law, with whom she had spent one night.
Life really has a sense of humor.
“Darn it!”
It was only after her dramatic exit that Lu Wanwan rembered the clothes were her colleague’s!
She needed to return them tomorrow!
She stood next to the trash can, gathering a lot of courage to fish the jacket out.
The disgusting sll of hot and spicy soup on the clothes drove her insane. But she couldn’t just dispose of it, as the clothes cost several hundred yuan, and she, having her bonus deducted for a month after just three days on the job, could not afford to pay for them.
Finally, holding her nose, she picked up the clothes with two fingers and took them away.
Drugged, slept with, docked pay, wronged, despised…
With such a day behind her, her only relief now was to regain the 380 yuan “prostitution fee.”
Being poor really toughens one’s nerves.

The next day, Lu Wanwan received a call from her dad who said he had learned the truth. He had grounded Lu Kexin, speaking in a tone so kind that she suspected the person on the other end was an impostor.
Days after she declined, no one asked her to return ho.
Instead, she received a bragging call from Lu Kexin, sincerely inviting her to help choose an engagent dress for a ceremony scheduled over a month later.
Lu Wanwan hung up directly, and then didn’t return to the Lu family for half a month.
Every day, she stayed in her school dormitory, about to enter her senior year next month. Fortunately, the school was still available to live in, otherwise, with roommates going back to their provinces and her best friend Xu Yuan suddenly deciding to travel as a backpacker during the sumr vacation, it would have been difficult for her to find a place to stay.
On Friday, just before the end of the workday, Lu Wanwan was called into the editor-in-chief’s office.
“Editor-in-chief, a public figure like Bai Lingyun has many bodyguards and really values privacy. Isn’t it exceedingly difficult to dig up personal scandals on him?” she asked.
Li Mochou flipped through the docunts in her hands and didn’t even look at her. “Of course it’s difficult—that’s what makes it valuable!”
Lu Wanwan held her forehead. “I’ve only been interning for half a month, this kind of responsibility…”
“Can’t do it? If you can’t, then leave!” Li Mochou snapped the docunts shut, her arrogance soaring. “Our newspaper won’t miss one more or one less.”
