“Young Master, Lu Ming is here!” Butler Chu, who was standing outside the door, announced. The announcement was sudden, though respectful.
Chu Yichen and Li An’an turned their heads towards the doorway at the same time.
Chu Yichen’s expression was frosty, and Li An’an’s was no better. What was Lu Ming doing here?
“Do you want to e with me?” Chu Yichen smiled ambiguously.
Li An’an turned her head to the side. She didn’t wish to go. “No, I don’t want to see him. I didn’t sleep well last night. I’m going back to bed for a nap!” She climbed onto the bed and covered her head with the blanket. It was up to Chu Yichen how he wanted to deal with Lu Ming, she never wanted to see that man again.
Seeing that she didn’t care, Chu Yichen headed downstairs.
Lu Ming was sitting on the sofa looking dejected. Only one night had passed, and he looked haggard. He kept recalling the scene of An’an falling into the sea. During the time, he felt increasingly guilty towards An’an as the seconds passed. He even felt that it was his fault that this had happened to her.
He buried his face in his hands. He had never thought that things would turn out this way. He had always wanted to protect her, but he repeatedly failed to do so.
Fortunately, when Xinyi came back in the afternoon, she told him that An’an was fine. She also mentioned that An’an had been taken to the island center in a car. Immediately, he guessed it was Chu Yichen.
At this thought, he wiped his face a few times to wake himself up. Hence the other yacht he saw last night belonged to Chu Yichen, which meant he was still one step behind the man.
“CEO Lu, what brings you here?” Chu Yichen was wearing a gray shirt and a suit. He looked at Lu Ming with a cold and ambiguous smile.
Lu Ming gritted his teeth. He hated Chu Yichen’s arrogant attitude, alas he was not as good as him in all aspects. “I’m here to take An’an away. Get her to e down.”
Chu Yichen’s expression was icy. “CEO Lu, I’m afraid you’ve forgotten my previous warning. Also, you didn’t care about her at all. How dare you e and look for her!”
Lu Ming looked embarrassed. “It’s not what you think. An’an wasn’t the only one who fell into the sea yesterday, her foster mother fell in too and her situation was critical, so I had to send her back to the hotel first. But later, I went out there to search for An’an all night!”
Although his efforts amounted to nothing, he was tireless in the search. In the end, he was forced by the others to return. Fortunately, he subsequently received news that An’an was fine.
“Foster mother?” Chu Yichen raised his eyebrows. Things were getting more and more interesting. Li An’an actually had a foster mother.
“What about her relationship with Li Xinyi?”
“They are sisters. Although they are not related by blood, An’an was adopted by the Li family when she was eight years old. The Li family has always treated her like their own daughter, but she ran away from home because of a misunderstanding!” Lu Ming explained, hoping that Chu Yichen would release her.
Chu Yichen said in a nasty tone, “So you are Li An’an’s future brother-in-law?” Lu Ming gritted his teeth. “Yes, that’s why I’m here to take An’an home.”
Chu Yichen chuckled. “You don’t have to do that. I don’t think she has any feelings for the Li family! There’s no need to force her to be your relative!”
“What do you know? Besides, this is between An’an and us. It’s none of your business!”
Chu Yichen lost his patience. “I saved her life. If you think I have no right to interfere, what makes you think that you, who abandoned her, have?”
Lu Ming was infuriated. “I told you the situation was critical!”
Chu Yichen was nonchalant. “Are you consoling yourself? A real man will take responsibility for his own actions! Besides, I will not let her go with you. If you continue to pester her, I promise that the Lu family will go bankrupt!”
Seeing that Chu Yichen refused to release Li An’an, he started shouting. “An’an, e back with me? I didn’t do it on purpose yesterday. I promise that this won’t happen again! e back with me! An’an, can you hear me? The Chu family will not accept you.. You will only be hurt if you stay by his side!”
