Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested Chapter 84: It’s Not Yet Certain Who’s in Danger
"Senior Lu, soone’s calling for you!"
Li Yuexing’s tone was tinged with sarcasm.
’She’s clearly not Old Lu’s type. All the trouble she went through to get here today is probably going to be for nothing.’
Lu Yunque shot Li Yuexing a look, and the latter imdiately shut his mouth. Only then did he turn to face Cen Mulin.
"Hello. Can I help you?"
Lu Yunque was certain he didn’t recognize the person in front of him. But since she called him "Senior Lu," she must have been an alumna from his school days. He just didn’t know from which school or year.
’To be able to attend the banquet at this villa today, she must be the daughter of so prominent family.’
Adhering to the principle of being a gracious host, Lu Yunque responded politely.
"It’s just... we haven’t seen each other in years, and I was so surprised to see you today, Senior Lu. I... I couldn’t resist coming over to say hello.
Senior Lu, I hope I’m not interrupting?"
Li Yuexing: ’You totally are.’
"We don’t know each other."
Therefore, the excuse of "not having seen each other in years" didn’t hold water with him.
Cen Mulin’s expression stiffened for a mont before she quickly recovered with a smile. "Yes, you don’t know , Senior Lu, but I know you! I noticed you back when we were in Country M.
I didn’t know you were from Dijing, so I thought I’d never see you again. I can’t believe I ran into you here.
Senior Lu! My na is Cen Mulin. For us to et again after so many years, it must be fate!"
"Whoa! A reunion of schoolmates after so many years. Old Lu, you..."
Fu Ze was halfway through his sentence when a glare from Lu Yunque cut him off.
"We just went to the sa school. From elentary school to university, I’ve had a lot of schoolmates. By that logic, I must share a fateful connection with a lot of people."
Lu Yunque had no intention of admitting they were fated to et. If anyone was fated to be with him, it was Yun Zijin.
"Senior Lu, I..."
"Miss Cen! You should be well aware of what you should and shouldn’t say."
The party was crowded, and prying eyes were everywhere. If soone saw or heard this and spread so baseless rumors, Lu Yunque felt he could kill soone.
After being so blatantly rejected by Lu Yunque, Cen Mulin couldn’t stay any longer, no matter how thick-skinned she was. She shot a glare at Yun Zijin and Su ngyao, who were on the sofa, ears perked as they watched the show.
In her eyes, Su ngyao and Yun Zijin, who were sitting with Lu Yunque, were both obstacles in her path to winning him over.
Yun Zijin and Su ngyao glared right back. ’Lu Yunque is the one who rejected you, so why are you glaring at us?’
After Cen Mulin left, Su ngyao was the first to speak. "Is she crazy or sothing?"
"Probably... because of unrequited love?"
Normal people could never comprehend the thought processes of the love-crazed.
Hearing Yun Zijin’s words, Lu Yunque suddenly grew worried.
Judging by Yun Zijin’s reaction, she was completely unaffected by what had just happened. She even looked like she was just an oblivious spectator enjoying the show. Lu Yunque knew then that he had a long road ahead in wooing her.
"But judging by the fierce way she glared at us, you don’t think she’s going to cause trouble for us, do you?"
’Watching drama is fun, but it’s not so great when you’re at the center of it.’
Su ngyao secretly glanced at Lu Yunque, really wanting to ask if he would clean up the ss if Cen Mulin caused any trouble for her.
After all, she was just an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.
"If she causes trouble for you, you can call ."
Lu Yunque gave his number to Su ngyao, asking her to call him so he could save her contact information as well.
This Miss Su, who seed likely to beco Yun Zijin’s best friend, could be a great help in his pursuit. Lu Yunque planned to get on good terms with Su ngyao.
"Alright. With those words from President Xiao Lu, I feel much more relieved."
As long as she knew soone would handle the aftermath, Su ngyao had her calming pill.
’It’s just one Cen Mulin. I’m not afraid of her.’
"She won’t be able to get to , so you don’t have to worry about ."
Yun Zijin waved her hand dismissively, indicating that she didn’t need his help to clean up any sses.
She mainly lived off rental inco. Even if Cen Mulin wanted to use the Cen Family’s power to impose economic sanctions on her, it would have little effect.
As for Yungong No. 1, the Cen Family’s reach didn’t extend that far.
If they resorted to things like kidnapping or hiring thugs to block her way, Yun Zijin could only say that it was uncertain who would be in real danger.
"I know you have bodyguards, but you still need to be careful. No one knows what she might try to do. In any case, it’s better to be cautious."
"I know, I know. I take my bodyguards everywhere I go anyway. You guys know that."
On this point, Lu Yunque and the others believed Yun Zijin completely.
For the rest of the evening, no one else like Cen Mulin appeared. As the banquet neared its end, Yun Zijin went to bid farewell to the Lu Family elders.
"Go on, go on. Be safe on your way ho, and co visit again when you have ti!"
Xu Su Hua had taken an instant liking to Yun Zijin from the mont she first saw her.
At her age, she did everything according to her heart. Since she liked Yun Zijin, she didn’t hesitate to extend a warm invitation.
The others who overheard were green with envy, but all they could do was look on.
"Okay, I definitely will!"
Yun Zijin hadn’t grown up with relatives; the closest person she had to family was the matron of her orphanage.
However, the matron had passed away from illness last year, and she hadn’t been back since.
She just transferred her spare money every month to the orphanage’s charitable foundation account under the guise of a donation.
Even after she got the Randomly Spend system, she continued these transfers, though she didn’t dare send too much. She was afraid the new matron would find out and worry she was involved in sothing illicit.
Xu Su Hua’s attitude gave Yun Zijin her first taste of a grandmother’s affection.
Although she wasn’t used to it, Yun Zijin could feel her heart flutter with joy.

Back at Xingyu Mansion, Yun Zijin collapsed onto the sofa. A long while passed before she finally stirred.
"Miss, your bath has been drawn. I added rose petals today. Please see if you like the scent. If you do, I’ll add them for you again next ti."
Yun Zijin nodded. She quite liked the scent of roses.
After her bath, Yun Zijin felt as if her entire body was suffused with the fragrance of roses. The scent was completely different from shower gel; she much preferred the natural floral aroma.
There was a real difference between natural fragrances and their artificial counterparts.
The night passed peacefully.

[Spending Task: Host must spend ¥3,000,000.00 before midnight tonight. Requirents: None. Task Reward: To be unlocked.]
Yun Zijin had just woken up when she received the sa old weekday spending task.
She picked up her phone to check the ti. It was still early. ’I’ll just sleep a little longer...’
By now, Yun Zijin had beco a familiar face to the sales associates at Jinsheng Mall. Whenever new items ca in, the SAs would notify her.
Whether Yun Zijin wanted to buy anything or not, they always made sure to show her first. The final decision was always hers.
After breakfast, Yun Zijin started scrolling through the WeChat ssages from the SAs she had added, checking what they had sent her one by one.
This store had new bags, that one had new watches...
Looking at all these ssages gave Yun Zijin a bit of a headache.
But a headache was just a headache. She still began to carefully look through the SAs’ ssages, afraid she might miss a model she wanted.
