Chapter 8, Words Unintended

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

As soon as I opened the door with warm wine in hand, before I had the chance to organize my luggage, Ruan Shu's call came in

She politely excused herself while warming the wine and then lightly ascended the stairs. As she gazed at Shang Jingtian's handsome and charming face, memories of the past surged back. She was actually a bit worried that if she stayed any longer, she might lose control and punch him in the face.

Looking at the warm wine with a complexion like powdered snow, Yan Lu had an impulse to hold her tightly in his arms and kiss her deeply. Just at that moment, voices from downstairs interrupted: "A-Lu, Qianqian is leaving, you should come down to see her off."

She immediately told herself that this must be an illusion. She had heard him say to Shang Jingtian that he did not like her. It was all over; there was no need for any more self-deceptive illusions to appear. She quickly lowered her head, rummaged through her bag for the keys, took them out, and opened the door without raising her head, saying, "You should hurry to find your grandfather; don't keep the old man waiting. Goodbye." With that, she slipped inside and quickly shut the door.

After having dinner at his grandfather's house, Yan Lu finally left

Shen Yuzhong extended his hand and gave Yan Lu a faint smile, saying: "Hello, I have heard Qianqian mention you often."

After waiting for two hours, Gu Yingjie had drafted a lengthy manuscript of ten thousand words, intending to vehemently criticize Yan Lu for his audacity and presumptuousness. However, upon seeing his only handsome and charming grandson, he felt a surge of love and could not bring himself to scold him harshly. He condensed the manuscript to one thousand words, yet it remained the same old story.

This calm and aloof temperament is quite similar to Wen Jiu. Wen Jiu is graceful and elegant, and when standing together with the tall and handsome Yan Lu, they are exceptionally well-matched in both temperament and aura. Once the relatives learned that she is Yan Lu's girlfriend, they all praised the couple as a match made in heaven.

For the sake of safety, Wen Jiu kindly said: "Mr. Yan, if you are tired of driving, I can take over for you. I have a driver's license"

The air conditioning in the car was warm, and the face of the woman, who was warming the wine, appeared rosy and fair, her lips particularly vibrant. Yan Lu found it hard to look away. Suddenly, he recalled that she had once mentioned she had never been in a relationship. Therefore, that kiss must have been her first. Just thinking about this made him feel lightheaded and his blood boil.

"What should I do? I'm so anxious that I've started cursing, yet he still behaves this way," Ruan Shu said with a tone of helplessness. "He is an impatient person; after a while, when he finds it uninteresting, he won't come back. Please take me in for a while, good person."

Yu Qianqian has visited City X several times, and her relatives all recognize her, greeting her warmly upon meeting. Yu Qianqian responds with a smile to each of them, her wrist consistently resting on Shen Yuzhong's arm, introducing him as her boyfriend, and deliberately mentioning that he holds a doctor's degree from the United States, clearly intending to overshadow Yan Lv.

The address! Yan Lu's voice became low, and his expression was already very displeased

Grandmother advised: "Take your time on the way back. Wait until Huanhuan starts school, then you can call someone to pick her up"

Alright, I understand. Please inform him as soon as grandfather wakes up

Wen Jiu smiled and said, "Alright, I will find an opportunity to make it up to you."

Indeed

Since Yan Lu has no intention of pretending to be serious, he can rest assured. He has already investigated Wen Jiu's background in the past few days. He hurried over under the pretext of celebrating the old man's birthday, worried that Yan Lu and Wen Jiu might develop feelings for each other from being together day and night. He came to observe the situation between the two and to gauge Yan Lu's thoughts.

Yan Lu pointed to a dish beside him and said, "Please serve me some." At the very least, you should show some concern for your "boyfriend" and not let the two people across from you overshadow him too much

At this moment, he had no intention of discussing business with Shang Jingtian; he only wanted to follow Wen Jiu upstairs and ask her why she had just kissed him

She closed the door and gave a self-deprecating smile, realizing how much she had overthought. She had thought that Yan Lu's care and protection for her were because he had also developed feelings, but it turned out not to be the case

Yan Lvdiao: "You go directly upstairs, Penglai Pavilion"

"Why didn't you inform me?" Yan Lu was consumed by jealousy, her voice trembling with anger

Unfortunately, Yan Lu was not even slightly affected by the stabbing; he did not show any signs of agitation. This is because he was also an academic achiever in his youth, and good grades meant nothing to him. A diploma does not equate to ability. Moreover, Yu Qianqian's life had nothing to do with him; even if Yu Qianqian were to date an alien, he would not care.

The moment I think of that sudden kiss, the corners of my lips involuntarily curl up. Yan Lu picks up the cup and takes a sip of tea to mask his feelings. That kiss, much like this tea, leaves a lingering sweetness, but it is a pity that it was only a fleeting taste; if our lips and teeth were to entwine, what flavor would that bring? As he recalls that scene, he gazes at Wen Jiu, who has already reached the corner of the staircase, and his heart stirs.

I am in a situation where I have no choice. When will you return

Unable to resist, I gently pinched her after warming the wine, "Oh, such a beautiful soft girl, it would be strange if Gu Mo didn't cling to her relentlessly"

At this moment, as she reached the stairway, she heard his slightly annoyed remark, which made her unable to resist a smile and pause in her steps. Since Shang Jingtian had mentioned her, she was curious to hear more.

Shang Jingtian chuckled and said: "Is that so? Then it's just right for us to go together"

When Shang Jingtian was speaking with Yan Lu, his gaze inadvertently slid past Wen Jiu.

Wen Jiu did not expect that he would still want to send her in, so she hurriedly said: "No need, no need. I can carry this little bit of luggage myself." As she spoke, she came to snatch back her small rolling suitcase

Yu Qianqian laughed exuberantly, embodying the demeanor of a victor, looking at Yan Lu with great satisfaction

Yan Lu lowered his head and looked at her, speaking earnestly: "I am very sorry that you have been startled and fallen ill these past two days. In the future, such situations will not occur again"

In a flurry, she hurriedly got up, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and washed her hair, then blow-dried her hair. After that, she opened the wardrobe and took out a very festive Chinese-style cotton coat to wear. Looking in the mirror, her complexion had improved significantly, although her lips appeared a bit pale. Fortunately, this watermelon-red coat complemented her skin tone very well, and once she put it on, she looked vibrant and healthy.

Unfortunately, before Yu Qianqian's hand could touch Wen Jiu, Yan Lu had already blocked her way, brushing her hand aside with one hand.

Commercial Landscape

She quickly covered her mouth and yawned, "Mr. Yan, I suddenly feel a bit sleepy, I will take a nap now." Saying this, she leaned back and closed her eyes, pretending to sleep

After tidying up the warm wine, I hurried downstairs

Ah, you plan to act first and report later

After hanging up the phone, Yan Lu felt a mix of surprise and a hint of confusion. In previous years, on his birthday, Shang Jingtian had never come to City X. Why did he suddenly decide to come this year? However, since he was already here, it was only natural for him to extend his hospitality.

Wen Jiu also felt that the situation was a bit sudden, and after a moment of surprise, asked: "So you mean, I should go back with you now?"

The two individuals packed their luggage and went downstairs together

Grandma held Wen Jiu's hand and said: "Xiao Wen, it is only an hour and a half drive from here to City Z. Yan Lu often comes over on weekends, ask him to bring you along to have fun and eat the vegetables grown by Grandma."

However, Wen Jiu misunderstood the meaning of "after this." "Are you saying that the agreement ends early, and this is it?"

There is nothing strange about this, my friend, as I am not very familiar with Yan Lu either. We have only known each other for a little over half a month.

Upon seeing Yan Luyu at a loss for words, Yu Qianqian became even more pleased with herself and then mocked, "In a passionate romance, one would wish to live in the same room, perhaps even seven times a night."

Wen Jiu nodded thoughtfully, thinking that going out to relax would be good, to cover up the memories of the past three days. The two were in perfect agreement, and Wen Jiu immediately called a friend at the travel agency. After having lunch, the two headed straight to the airport

"What credentials do you have?" Yu Qianqian said angrily, "It's truly ridiculous that you would turn against me and engage in a battle of wits over a fake girlfriend."

Shang Jingtian observed it with concern in his heart, hesitating slightly, and asked with a half-truthful smile, "You wouldn't have developed feelings for her, would you?"

Has he been dumped?

After the birthday banquet concluded, the relatives returned to their respective homes. Shang Jingtian and Shen Yuzhong drove to the Yan family to rest. Yu Qianqian planned to return to City Z in the afternoon, and after arriving home, she went upstairs to pack her belongings

Upon reaching the elevator entrance, Yan Lu again asked: "Which floor?"

What exactly is the matter? She hesitated for a moment before answering the call

Yan Lu's expression turned awkward, and he immediately denied it. He had always been thin-skinned; if he were to admit it, he would surely be teased and mocked by Shang Jing Tian, so out of concern for his own dignity, he casually replied, "No"

Before he could react, Wen Jiu stood on tiptoe, and a fragrant, soft kiss landed on his lips

In this comparison, Yan Lu and Wen Jiu do not resemble a couple at all. This is because Yan Huan is sitting next to Wen Jiu, and since children can be quite troublesome during meals, Wen Jiu is constantly attending to this picky little girl, hardly able to spare a glance at Yan Lu.

As soon as the call was connected, a thunderous voice came through: "You little brat, hurry up and come back here!"

Yan Lu angrily said: "You must have used it on the warm wine."

Performing affectionate acts, who cannot? Yan Lu picked up a piece of fish, removed the bones, and gently and considerately placed it on Wen Jiu's plate

The Green Lawn Pavilion is not large, but it is well landscaped with many evergreen trees, creating a sea of green even in winter. Wen Jiu chose this place for its proximity to the workplace, making it convenient for commuting.

Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the Green Lawn Pavilion. Wen Jiu opened the car door and got out, while Yan Lu had already taken her luggage down, stating unequivocally: "I will escort you inside." Such a good opportunity, of course, one must clarify where she is staying.

After driving home, he took a shower and then called Wen Jiu, only to find that her phone was turned off

In front of Yu Qianqian, she kissed Yan Lyu without feeling the slightest embarrassment, doing so quite naturally. However, at this moment, being alone with Yan Lyu was exceptionally awkward.

I had a deep bond with Qianqian's grandfather back then. Your mother and her mother have been friends since childhood, and we absolutely cannot be so ungrateful. Qianqian has always been devoted to you, waiting for you all these years without dating anyone. Meanwhile, you quietly started a relationship and even brought your girlfriend back to your hometown, which is absolutely unacceptable

Yan Lu turned his head to look at Wen Jiu, feeling quite excited. It is said that when a woman begins to feel distressed about a man's money, she has already fallen in love with him

Good

Yan Lyu made a sound of acknowledgment, gazing at her with affectionate eyes; the fake girlfriend had transformed into a real girlfriend, and there was no better ending than this

Yu Qianqian stared at Wen Jiu without blinking, a surge of intense jealousy rising within her. She became quite unreserved in her words, curling her lips in disdain and mocking, "Your cotton coat is so tacky, it looks like something from a Republic-era auntie." The implication in her words was sharp, as the term 'auntie' naturally suggested that Wen Jiu was the third party who had intruded upon her love.

I will take a taxi myself, there is really no need for you to give me a ride. After hearing the "no," Wen Jiu instinctively began to keep his distance from Yan Lu, thus thoroughly rejecting Yan Lu's kind offer.

Yu Qianqian forced a strained and dry smile on her face, while her heart felt as if it were about to explode from the suffocating pressure

"Simply avoiding it is not a solution."

The smile while warming the wine fell into Yan Lu's eyes, yet it stirred a different feeling within him. Because when she was with him, she certainly did not smile this often. Could it be that she prefers someone like Shang Jingtian?

You can go travel

After suffering from insomnia for most of the night, he decided that if she did not return tomorrow and did not answer the phone, he would check her parents' address and go directly to her home to find her

Then, Yan Lu drove everyone to the largest hotel in City X, which had been reserved in advance, the Wuhua Tianbao.

The birthday banquet was arranged in the largest private room of the hotel. Before long, relatives from City X began to arrive one after another. The elder, being the most senior in rank and the oldest in age, had also held an official position in the province, earning great respect within the family. The younger generation, both to pay New Year’s greetings and to celebrate the birthday, gathered around the elder, chatting and laughing, creating a very lively atmosphere

Yan Lv rubbed his temples and took a deep breath. He was fully prepared for a farewell kiss, yet she unexpectedly slammed the door shut on him with a bang

Yan Lvrin could no longer contain himself, immediately changed his clothes, and drove straight to the Green Lawn Pavilion. Upon arriving upstairs, he rang the doorbell for quite some time without anyone answering. He grew increasingly puzzled; where could they have gone so early in the morning? He took out his phone and called again, but it was still turned off.

Alright, there is an empty room anyway. Don't you have the key? Just come over directly

On the phone, Ruan Shu paused for a moment, then softly asked: "Does he recognize you?"

With a warm smile and her eyes curved, she teased him: "What should I call you, little swallow?"

Recognize

Who is it

Shen Yuzhong smiled and said, "I also find Mr. Shang familiar. May I ask who Shang Liangchen is?"

He was quite displeased when he noticed her sitting in the back seat just now, but in front of Shang Jingtian, he had no choice but to force himself to act as if he didn't care. At this moment, Shang Jingtian's car had driven ahead, and he could no longer hold back; he stopped the car and called her over

At this moment, a knock was heard at the door

"You little rascal." Old Master Gu was so angry that he slapped him

Yan Lü has developed a habit of morning exercise over many years, waking up at the designated time, even if he went to bed late the night before

Yan Lue coldly snorted: "You don't understand at all, he is not her boyfriend at all; Yu Qianqian just called someone over temporarily to save face."

Wen Jiu suddenly felt a bit nervous, as she experienced a strange sensation; if she called out once more, he would surely come to seal her lips.

Once or twice it may be unintentional, but after three or five times, the perceptive Yan Lv began to notice. He was well aware of Shang Jing Tian's flirtatious nature, and he also knew that Wen Jiu was not his true girlfriend. However, even if she was not his true girlfriend, it made him very uncomfortable to see Wen Jiu being looked at in that way by Shang Jing Tian. Thus, he nudged Wen Jiu's arm and said, "You should go upstairs to rest."

Yu Qianqian would certainly not admit it, retorting to the camera: "What does it matter to me if you have diarrhea from warm wine? I am so upset that I am constipated, so I went to buy some laxatives to take, what's wrong with that?"

Yan Lu looked at her coldly, "I found it strange from the beginning. The whole family is fine, yet only Wen Jiu has diarrhea. Just now, Sun Mei went to clean your room, and I asked her to pay attention to the trash can. Sure enough, she found something."

Yan Lu was downstairs answering a phone call when he saw Wen Jiu coming down the stairs, and his eyes couldn't help but linger. He didn't hear anything that Shang Jing Tian was saying on the phone.

"Is there something wrong?" Wen Jiu stood up, gently placing the book down. Her expression was calm and clear, and her sun-kissed skin was as delicate and vibrant as pink cherry blossoms

Yan Lu, who has never been good at sweet talk and has never uttered any romantic words, believes that the meaning of his statement is quite clear: he will not let her suffer any grievances in the future, and he will protect her

Yu Qianqian reached out and linked her arm with his, proudly tilting her chin towards Yan Lu: "This is my boyfriend, Shen Yuzhong. He holds a Doctor's degree from the United States and is the Executive Director of Shen Group"

Yan Lu was taken aback: "You actually drove over here?"

I do not have a nickname

Yan Lv smiled and asked, "What do you like to eat?"

I am already on my way

But I will have to go to work in a few days

The kiss just now was somewhat impulsive. In retrospect, she gradually realized that this kiss was not merely a way to save face, nor was it solely provoked by a challenge, or just to deliberately irritate Yu Qianqian; there was something more to it...

Yan Lu came out of the Green Lawn Pavilion and did not dare to go directly to her grandfather's house. Instead, she first called her second aunt and then picked her up as a savior to go to her grandfather's house together

Yan Lvzhen was about to introduce the two, but suddenly remembered that during the interview with the candidates, Shang Jing Tian had met Wen Jiu. Moreover, Shang Jing Tian was his friend, and even Yu Qianqian knew him, so it was unreasonable for his girlfriend not to know him. Therefore, even if the two did not know each other at this moment, he could not make the introduction, otherwise it would reveal a flaw.

Yan Lu glanced at her and said, "You just know how to make me angry, don't you"

My grandfather suddenly called and asked me to return to City Z immediately

As the warm wine was poured, a sudden stir was felt in the heart; Yan Lu's tone was so certain, and his expression so earnest, as if this statement were undeniably true, not merely an act put on for Yu Qianqian.

This dismissive attitude left Yu Qianqian both angry and disappointed. She turned to her grandfather and smiled, saying: "He heard that I came to celebrate your birthday, and insisted on coming along. Surely, grandfather, you wouldn't mind his presence"

Please come in

Upon reflection, Wen Jiu found the current situation quite amusing. She quietly tugged at Yan Lu's sleeve and said with a smile, "It turns out that Yu Qianqian already has a boyfriend. Boss, it seems your 700,000 was wasted."

In the past few days, Yu Qianqian has endured a lot of provocation and has been seething with anger. At this moment, she wishes to take this opportunity to vent all her pent-up frustration. Watching Yan Lu, who has always been indifferent and aloof in front of her, suffer a setback brings her immense satisfaction.

The warm wine is still on the fire, "Boss, that Mr. Shen looks quite good, cultured and refined, and he is also tall."

He never expected that Wen Jiu was standing at the staircase at this moment

Looking out at the county town rushing by outside the window, the events of the past few days flash through my mind one by one. It turns out that in just three short days, so much has happened, and each fragment is so vivid, even Yan Lu's expression is still fresh in my memory

Yan Lu was holding his phone in a daze, and after a while, he finally became aware of a problem.

Thinking of those things, I felt a bit unsettled. I took out my phone, plugged in my earphones, and started listening to music to calm myself down and stop thinking about it.

Wen Jiu rubbed his eyes and smiled apologetically: "How fast, we have already arrived"

Yu Qianqian sat down on the sofa, crossed her legs, and lazily said: "As far as I know, Shang Jingtian and Yan Lu have a very good relationship. They collaborated on a project that is about to go into production. As Yan Lu's girlfriend, you should be quite familiar with him, yet you didn't say a word to him during the entire birthday banquet. Don't you think that's strange?"

At this moment, a flashy sports car stopped in front of the hotel. The car door opened, and a man in his thirties stepped out, wearing a finely crafted black coat. He appeared cultured and elegant, striding towards Yu Qianqian.

Yan Lu stood up: "Shang Jing Tian, come over here."

Yan Lu stared at her phone, is that it? It's not even started yet, and it's already good night? Her slow-witted brain must be made of cold noodles.

"Well, I will come when I have time." Although Wen Jiu responded with a smile, she knew that she would not come again. With the conclusion of the agreement, she and Yan Lu became strangers, and from then on, they would no longer be in contact.

Wen Jiu had already guessed in his heart that it was 8 * * 9. The sudden arrival of Mr. Shen must have some hidden agenda. If he were truly Yu Qianqian's boyfriend, given Yu Qianqian's personality, she should have brought him out in a grand manner early on, showcasing her power in front of Yan Lu. However, she had spent two days in the Yan family feeling stifled, without revealing this impressive boyfriend to infuriate Yan Lu, which was definitely not her style

His mind was in a daze as if filled with wind, amidst the buzzing sound, a gentle and serene voice came through: "I am going to book the flight tickets now, if there is nothing else, I will hang up."

Please go to the Wuhua Tianbao Hotel, as I am concerned you might have trouble finding the place near my home. We will head to the hotel shortly. Thank you for coming all this way

Upon seeing this, Yu Qianqian felt that something was amiss. It is common for lovers to kiss and share saliva, so why are the chopsticks so distinctly separated?

Wen Jiu Pu smiled, as expected of a close friend, their hearts are in sync

No? Yan Lu looked at her, this is also good, he can give her a name, this way it sounds more intimate, and it is a name that belongs exclusively to him

Sitting opposite, Yu Qianqian said to Shang Jingtian: "I didn't expect you to be here as well"

Yan's first reaction was to think of Uncle Ruan. In a fit of anxiety, he directly asked: "Is it Uncle Ruan, the one who often calls you?"

After everyone took their seats, a sumptuous array of dishes was served in quick succession. Yan Lu and Wen Jiu sat beside their grandfather, while Yu Qianqian and Shen Yuzhong, as guests, sat next to their grandmother. The two pairs of "lovers" happened to be facing each other.

At this moment, Mr. Shen from across the table peeled a shrimp for Yu Qianqian

The moment the warm wine touched her lips, her face turned as red as the evening glow, while Yan Lu was both angry and embarrassed, gritting his teeth and squeezing out three words through clenched jaws, "Yu Qianqian"

Shang Jingtian first offered birthday wishes to the elderly man. As he took his seat, he bent down, tilted his head, and smiled at the warm wine, saying, "Hello"

"Are you saying that she is also looking for a fake boyfriend like you?" Wen Jiu couldn't help but chuckle, "You two really are a match made in heaven, your styles of doing things seem quite similar."

This is truly wonderful, as it will also be more convenient to find her and enjoy some time together as a couple

The warmth in her heart began to become disordered, spreading in all directions

Wen Jiu smiled and said: "This was chosen by Yan Lu, who said that my grandparents like this kind of thing, as it is quite festive." As she spoke, she nudged Yan Lu: "I think my grandparents have very good taste, don’t you think?"

Yan's voice deepened as he said menacingly, "Come here quickly"

Then I must first send you back

A sour and tangy scent wafted into the nose

Yan Lu felt that something was amiss. He had done nothing all day, his thoughts entirely consumed by his phone, making a call every half hour. By evening, he went to the Green Lawn Pavilion once again, but still no one was there

Wen Jiu stood up with a smile and said, "Is there something you need?"

The old man jested, "Look at your courage, as small as a sesame seed."

Both grandfather and grandmother are acquainted with Shang Jingtian. Upon seeing him arrive, they quickly beckoned him to come and sit down. Consequently, the waiter added a chair next to Wen Jiu and set out an additional set of cutlery.

On the second floor, Yu Qianqian opened the door and was organizing a wooden box used for storing snakes. Upon seeing Wen Jiu, she glanced at him but did not acknowledge him.

Watching her off-road Jeep disappear on the road in front of the courtyard, Grandma sighed: "Now that this child has left, I can finally set my heart at ease." The elderly woman was fully aware of the two matters that Yu Qianqian had done regarding Wen Jiu, but she pretended not to know and simply said nothing.

It was indeed that old man. Yan Lu tightly gripped his phone, nearly twisting it in half.

Yu Qianqian glared at Yan Lu with resentment, gritting her teeth and saying, "Fine, I will go back and tell my grandfather everything about your girlfriend, let's see how you explain it." After saying this, she stormed down the stairs.

Ruan Shu stuck out her tongue, her chubby baby face, rosy and fair, looked as fresh as a peach, so delicate that one would want to take a bite

Unexpectedly, the first call upon turning on the phone was from Yan Lu, as if he had been waiting for her to power on the device; the moment she turned on her phone, his call came in

Grandfather immediately laughed: "How could that be? Welcome, welcome. The more people there are, the happier I become."

Wen Jiu let out a sigh of relief, covering his face with his hand, feeling a slight warmth.

In less than five minutes, Ruan Shu arrived with a large suitcase.

Mr. Yan, who has always been accustomed to a haughty and aloof demeanor, akin to an iceberg or a snowy river, is truly unaccustomed to the sudden warmth and amiability of Mr. Yan, whose smile is both handsome and charming, and finds it inexplicably perplexing. What has happened to him today, being so fussy and fragmented, as if he has completely transformed into a different person

She did not expect that Yan Lu would be so concerned about her matters, deliberately seeking evidence to stand up for her and seek justice. Instantly, her heart warmed, as if basking in a lazy ray of spring sunshine

He did not know whether Wen Jiu's appearance was aimed at him or for the sake of Yan Lu's seven hundred thousand. Thus, Shang Jing Tian tentatively asked, "It's good that you are not moved. There is something I still need to remind you of: although Wen Jiu is quite good in many aspects, after all, she is here for the money. Don't take it too seriously."

Do you want to hit him

Yan Lu has been troubled by this matter for several years, and he does not dare to confront the elder directly, fearing that it might provoke him to a serious extent. Therefore, he refrains from saying much and plans to wait for his grandfather to come before attempting to persuade him again

Thank you, Grandma. Wen Jiu entered the kitchen and took out a steaming bowl of white porridge from the rice cooker, using a little less than half a bowl.

However, over the past few days of interaction, she has certainly made him angry quite a bit, teasing and joking with him in various ways, almost like sprinkling pepper, leaving him flustered and in a state of disarray. Nevertheless... he touched his lips and thought, if she is willing to make amends in this manner frequently, he wouldn't mind her continuing to irritate him.

Yu Qianqian was initially taken aback, and when she finally reacted, she saw Wen Jiu kiss Yan Lu right in front of her, which was tantamount to declaring war on her. In an instant, she was filled with uncontrollable rage and raised her hand to push Wen Jiu.

Yu Qianqian parked her off-road Jeep next to Yan Lu's car. After jumping out of the vehicle, she looked around and then took out her phone: "Where are you? I have already arrived."

Yan Lu responded with a sound, reluctantly glanced at the warm wine, and then went downstairs

Yan Lu raised his hand to block, carrying his belongings as he walked into the community, observing the surroundings of the neighborhood as he went

The eardrum buzzed with a ringing sound, and Yan Lu quickly moved the phone away a little, smiling as he said, "Grandpa, what is it that you need?"

Is it that you have already gone to sleep? Or is your phone out of battery?

Wen Jiu expressed his gratitude, but upon reflecting on his recent bout of diarrhea, he decided it was wise to be cautious with his diet, opting for light vegetarian food instead. Thus, he generously offered the piece of fish to Huan Huan.

Shen Yuzhong smiled in realization: "No wonder you look so familiar. What a coincidence"

She would not be foolish to that extent; she is very intelligent and knows how to maintain a sense of proportion. However, this child is overly competitive, and A-Lu is proud and unwilling to yield. These two children are truly incompatible. After the Lunar New Year, I must have a serious discussion with Old Man Gu.

She uses a public pair of chopsticks to serve you food, but when you use your own chopsticks to serve her, she refuses to eat. In a romantic relationship, passionate kisses and sharing saliva are common occurrences, aren't they? Yet, you two are so picky that you even disdain the saliva on the chopsticks, and still claim to be in a romantic relationship. Hahaha, what a joke.

Wen Jiu did not know who was on the phone with Yan Lu. When the waiter opened the door and Shang Jing Tian's tall and handsome figure appeared at the entrance of Penglai Pavilion, the chopsticks in her hand fell onto the plate with a light clink, and Shang Jing Tian's gaze fell directly on her face.

Feeling a warmth on my face from the heated wine, Mr. Yan, you truly are a master of exceptional acting. Not only is your expression on point, but even your lines are delivered so perfectly, it sounds just like reality.

At that moment, Yan Lu's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from his grandfather's house, and he immediately felt a jolt in his brow. Yu Qianqian truly kept her word.

The noodle skin is extremely thin. Upon hearing this jest, he immediately lightly reprimanded, "Stop talking nonsense."

Unexpectedly, the usually gentle Ruan Shu took a breath and said resentfully, "Go ahead, count my share as well."

Yan Lu was momentarily taken aback, his face displaying a cold frost yet unable to refute.

Yu Qianqian was so choked that she could not utter a single word

Yan Lu once again informed his grandfather of everything Yu Qianqian had done in City X

The shock in Yan Lvxin's heart was no less than that of a world-shattering event, as if he were submerged by an overwhelming wave, staring blankly at the warm wine, in a daze, lost in thought.

Hello, welcome to City X. Yan Lu shook hands with him, his expression as always cold and indifferent, the corners of his lips slightly curling up, which could be considered a smile.

Yu Qianqian looked at Yan Lu's expression and couldn't help but smile slightly. It seems that not everything is as it appears. Her boyfriend is fake, and it seems that his girlfriend is also not very genuine.

Thank you, thank you

Yan Lv took a breath, and his middle finger silently rubbed against his temple.

Friend, who is it

Wen Jiu nodded with a smile and said, "Alright, then I will pack my things right away"

Grandmother whispered, "This child is truly bold, daring to do anything. What if something were to happen?" Suddenly recalling that Shang Jingtian was also behind, seeing off the guests, Grandmother chose not to continue her words

You do not know him/her

Shang Jingtian smiled and said, "That is my brother"

Warm wine, may I stay at your house for a while? Gu Mo comes to my house every day.

Shang Jingtian was taken aback, "Then why has she come here?" He looked at Yan Lu with unease, could it be that Wen Jiu had told Yan Lu about the events from seven years ago? But it didn't seem like that was the case.

The clever Wen Jiu quickly understood and immediately picked it up for him, placing it attentively on his plate, and even smiled gently. However, she used serving chopsticks, as she was aware that the fastidious Mr. Yan had a cleanliness obsession

Grandfather warmly welcomed Shen Yuzhong into the hotel. Yu Qianqian was holding onto his arm all the way, appearing quite intimate. However, Wen Jiu suspected that these two in front of her, like her and Yan Lu, were also putting on an act

Yan Lv snorted, "This time there are indeed a lot of witnesses. Grandparents, aunts, and the nanny can all testify. Do you want to make a call and ask?"

This is a gaze of profound richness, imbued with an unfathomable and deeply significant essence

During the meal, Yu Qianqian intentionally smiled lightly and playfully pouted at Shen Yuzhong, who thoughtfully served her dishes. The two appeared to be very harmonious and intimate.

A simple sentence, yet it contains the meaning of affection and protection; Wen Jiu felt a strange stirring in her heart, as this was almost the first time in her life that a man had sheltered her in such a way. She looked up at the stern-faced Yan Lu, and for a moment, her heart was tender and gentle, as if brushed with a deep shade of crimson

Yan Luyong's expression turned cold, and he slowly said: "I will say it again, Wen Jiu is my girlfriend, a genuine girlfriend."

"Ha, do I really have to expose you?" Yu Qianqian sneered twice, pointing at Wen Jiu: "If she is your girlfriend, then last night when she was ill, shouldn't you have stayed in her room to take care of her? The ridiculous part is that she not only slept alone but also locked the door. If you are her boyfriend, would she treat you like a potential predator?"

He gazed intently as Wen Jiu descended the stairs. Dressed in a bright and stylish Chinese cotton coat, with skin that was fair and slightly rosy, and wearing strawberry-colored lip balm, she seemed to have shed the frail and sickly appearance from the night before. The entire person exuded a sweet and delicate aura, reminiscent of a blooming weeping crabapple.

Shang Jingtian momentarily did not intend to return to City Z, continuing to sit in the living room discussing the project they were collaborating on with Yan Lu. Due to the nature of the business confidentiality, Wen Jiu consciously went upstairs

These few pointed questions struck directly at the heart of the matter, causing Yan Lu to flush with anger. Just as he was contemplating how to counter her and turn the unfavorable situation around, suddenly, Wen Jiu, standing beside him, reached out and hooked her arm around his neck

Wen Jiu walked into the room, closed the door, and made a phone call to Ruan Shu

Wen Jiu hung up the phone and turned to say, "Please come in"

The next morning, after finishing his run, he returned and stared at his phone for a long time, with no calls and no messages. He wanted to call her immediately but was afraid of waking her up too early, so he patiently waited until 9 o'clock. When he called, she was still turned off.

Yan Lu felt secretly pleased. He placed great importance on intuition when observing others. His first impression of Wen Jiu was very positive, but in order to please the elder, he chose Hu Min, who had a more festive appearance. In fact, he personally preferred Wen Jiu, and the moment he saw her save Lu Pingyong, he decisively felt that she was the person he truly desired.

Warming the wine, yet still reluctant to move forward, he hesitated and said: "Why must I sit in the front?"

Yan Lu stood up and took two or three steps up the stairs. Standing at the stairway entrance, his heart was pounding uncontrollably. The door to Wen Jiu's room was closed, and he walked lightly to the door and raised his hand to knock.

Yan Lu was holding his phone, feeling overwhelmed. He knew his grandfather's temper all too well; if he didn't go back, the old man would come in person after two hours. Today is his grandfather's birthday, and no matter what, he must not let his grandfather come here and ruin the celebration.

Yan Lu frowned, what does this mean? Is he disapproving of his chopsticks

"Is Wen Jiu my girlfriend? I know best." A cold response came from the doorway as Yan Lu walked in, shutting the door behind him. He raised a small paper box in his hand, "Yu Qianqian, what is this? Can you explain it?"

Wen Jiu teased, "Still on the way, I suppose you were downstairs when you called just now."

Wen Jiu suddenly had a feeling that his visit this time might be related to himself

To my surprise, early the next morning, Wen Jiu's phone actually got through, as Wen Jiu was going to book a flight today, so it was finally turned on

Shang Jingtian has always been a charming and dashing figure, engaging in lively conversation and witty banter at the table, eliciting hearty laughter from the elder. Even Yu Qianqian, who was in a very bad mood, couldn't help but laugh from time to time.

Yan Lü restarted the car, and as she sat beside him, the feeling was distinctly different; not only had the physical distance between them decreased, but there was also a significant closeness felt in their hearts.

Why even ask? Yan Lvdun paused for a moment and could only say: "I have something to discuss with you"

Old Master Yan slapped his hand down with a stern face, "You little rascal, showing no respect."

I am in Hainan

Not only were Grandpa and Grandma taken aback, but even Wen Jiu was secretly surprised; Yu Qianqian's move was truly unexpected. The gentleman Shen before them, although slightly inferior in appearance and temperament compared to Yan Lu, was still considered a very outstanding man

His throat tightened, and he instinctively made a swallowing motion; the soft and fragrant sensation on his lips seemed to take root, stirring a desire to relive it at this moment

I remember that your father’s birthday is on the 3rd of the first month. Since I have some free time, I happened to acquire a box of fine old ginseng, so I brought it to pay my respects to the elder.

Yes

Please wait here for a moment, I will go upstairs to tidy up some things

Fortunately, this morning, after she learned that Wen Jiu was in good health and would attend the birthday banquet, she hastily called Shen Yuzhong over; otherwise, she truly would not have been able to stay at this birthday banquet.

Yan Lu slowed down the car and said gently, "You are going back to your own place first, right? I will take you there."

What is the matter

What is the specific location of your company

Yan Lu heard these words and replied displeased, "She did not come for money, nor is she someone who loves money." He did not appreciate Shang Jingtian's evaluation of Wen Jiu, as he trusted his own intuition about Wen Jiu.

Yan Lu suddenly pulled the car over to the side, turned his head to look at Wen Jiu in the back seat, and huffed discontentedly: "Come to the front seat."

Yan Lu was lying in bed, feeling increasingly depressed. She knew very well that he had returned to resolve the troubles with Yu Qianqian. She should at least make a phone call to inquire about the situation, as this concerned their future. How could she be so indifferent?

Yan Lu also felt a slight displeasure, whether it was drinking rock candy pear water with a straw or using public chopsticks to pick up food, the act of warming the wine inadvertently revealed a sense of estrangement. He again thought unhappily of the bed sheet that had been despised after a night of sleep

Yan Lu: "... ..."

The sound of Grandpa and Grandma seeing off guests came from downstairs. Since Wen Jiu was Yan Lu's "girlfriend," she was considered half a host. Even though her relationship with Yu Qianqian was quite strained, out of courtesy, she felt it necessary to go downstairs to see the guests off. Thus, she calmed her emotions and quickly made her way down the stairs

Yan Lu is swiping his card, and there is a hint of dissatisfaction on Qing Ao's face. She has been ignoring him all the way, sleeping alone. Is her brain made of potato starch

Yan Lu was simply unbelievable, holding the phone, her heart racing to the point of irregularity, and her throat felt a bit on fire

Well, I know

Grandfather refuses to believe: "How is that possible? That girl has a bit of a wild temper, but she wouldn't harm anyone"

It should not be recognized. Wen Jiu clenched his fist, and the joints cracked a few times.

"Alright, I can go up by myself." Wen Jiu attempted once more to retrieve her luggage, but was again blocked by Yan Lu with his arm, leaving Wen Jiu with no choice but to give up.

After waiting for a while with the warm wine, he did not speak, so I turned my face to take a look. The scenery outside the window rushed by, and Yan Lu gazed ahead, his side profile handsome and striking, with a dimple on his cheek that appeared and disappeared, suggesting that he was in a good mood

Shang Jingtian joked, "They didn't end up fighting, did they?"

Wen Jiu has never been afraid of getting into a fight with others. Yu Qianqian tried to scare her with snakes and even drugged her to cause diarrhea. Wen Jiu was just thinking of teaching her a lesson, but since Yu Qianqian was a guest of the Yan family and her grandparents were downstairs, Wen Jiu felt it was inappropriate to take action. Since Yu Qianqian made the first move, it was even better. Wen Jiu calmly waited for Yu Qianqian to approach her, and then she would give Yu Qianqian a proper lesson.

Yan Lu deeply felt that his taste in choosing clothes was truly beyond words. Of course, his eye for selecting people was even more exceptional. Wen Jiu could be said to be the type who looked good in any outfit, in his eyes

The back is spacious. I prefer sitting at the back. Wen Jiu deliberately chose to sit at the back, not wanting to be too close to him

Indeed, it is noisy

The warm lips parted at a touch, and turning to Yu Qianqian, a smile accompanied by a raised eyebrow followed: "You should be satisfied now, right"

It is quite far, so I rented an apartment near the company

Ruan Shu immediately said angrily: "Don't mention him, this year has been suffocating for me, hiding everywhere like a thief"

It turns out that he indeed did not see it wrong

At this moment, Yu Qianqian suddenly brought out a boyfriend, clearly thinking that she would lose face in front of the relatives of the Yan family at the birthday banquet, so she hastily called a friend over to save the situation

Warming the wine was originally a pretense of sleeping, but unexpectedly, I actually fell asleep. Upon waking, the vehicle had just arrived at the toll booth exit.

No one is accompanying me. How about we go together

Yan Lu frowned in displeasure upon hearing this: "Do not associate me with her."

"Hainan?" Yan Lu's voice suddenly rose, "What are you going to Hainan for?"

Yan Lu smiled and patted his grandfather's shoulder: "I believe in Comrade Yan's abilities; Comrade Gu is simply no match for you"

Yan Lyu sighed helplessly, "Grandfather, Yu Qianqian and I truly do not get along. You wouldn't want to see us get married and then divorced the very next day, would you?"

Very well, both elderly individuals were quite satisfied. Coincidentally, the man she saved happened to be from City X, and he came to express his gratitude with some gifts. This incident made the old gentleman regard her with newfound respect, praising her endlessly. At this point, Yan Lu rarely showed a hint of a smile, her gaze carrying a sense of approval and appreciation.

Hello, what did you just say

The atmosphere fell into an extremely ambiguous state, with neither person speaking, as if a layer of gauze as thin as a cicada's wing separated the air; the moment one of them uttered the first word, it would shatter that delicate barrier

Yan Lu is his friend and also his most important business partner. The project he is collaborating on with Yan Lu is exceptionally important to him. For many years, he has been unable to rise above the shadow of Shang Liangchen, and if he can successfully collaborate with Yan Lu, it will be crucial for him. The emergence of Wen Jiu has begun to make him somewhat restless.

"Let's eat."

That is indeed the case. It seems that replacing Hu Min with Wen Jiu was a very wise decision

Yan Lv placed the luggage containing the warm wine into the trunk, bid farewell to his grandmother, and then drove off with Shang Jing Tian towards City Z

After speaking, he did not give Yan Lu a chance to explain, and the phone was abruptly hung up.

Today is Grandpa's birthday, and she actually slept until 10 o'clock

Two individuals tossed and turned in their respective beds in two separate rooms for most of the night before finally falling asleep

Yan Lu's eyes lit up: "Aren't you living with your family?"

Yan Luyi was taken aback: Once the agreement is over, does that mean there is no relationship? Wasn't that kiss of hers a representation that they had already embarked on a brand new beginning, implicitly acknowledging that they are each other's lovers?

Old Master Gu's temper was completely ignited at this moment, and he said fiercely: "What are you still asking me about? Come back within two hours, or I will go to City X right now"

Yu Qianqian approached with an elegant stride, arms crossed, and smiled haughtily: "Do you know Shang Jingtian?"

The nickname? '' The inquiry about the warm wine was even more astonishing, it was simply more meticulous than a household registration check

Did she return to her parents' home? Yan Lu began to regret not asking her parents' address

As he warmed the wine, he answered while feeling astonished. How could Mr. Yan, who had always been taciturn, aloof, and proud, suddenly resemble a neighborhood committee aunt checking household registrations, asking so many trivial questions? What was going on? Was it because driving on the highway was too boring, so he sought someone to talk to in order to avoid drowsiness and potential danger?

The room suddenly fell silent, and Yan Lu turned to look at Wen Jiu, his eyes blazing as if they carried a searing heat. Wen Jiu had never seen such a gaze directed at him, and he found himself blushing slightly under the intensity of Yan Lu's stare

Warming the wine, he忍着笑道: "It is unjust, I am just feeling sorry for the boss's money."

Is your home far from the workplace

Next, Yan Lu posed a series of questions

Shang Jingtiandao: "What happened? Yu Qianqian left in a huff. Did you two just have an argument upstairs?"

The old gentleman drank too much at noon and has not yet woken up. The grandmother, who usually takes little naps, has already gotten up after a short rest and is currently in the living room talking with Shang Jingtian. From Shang Jingtian, it has been learned that Yan Lu's grandfather called and asked him to return.

Yes. I will return to my parents' home this weekend

The biological clock of Wen Jiu is not so punctual, as she fell ill last night and spent a long time in restless thought before finally falling asleep. Consequently, she slept until dawn. Upon opening her eyes and seeing the time on her phone, she suddenly sat up, exclaiming inwardly that it was a disaster

Having kissed and embraced, having seen each other, yet sitting so awkwardly in the back seat, it is simply unbearable

The neglected Yan Lu nudged Wen Jiu under the table with his leg. Wen Jiu paused for a moment, looking at Yan Lu in confusion.

Yan Lu, I have arrived downstairs

Grandfather and grandmother, having consumed alcohol at the birthday banquet, sat in the living room for a short while before going to their room to rest

Shang Jingtian chuckled, "Oh, our Young Master Yan has finally opened his heart to love, his eyes are completely captivated."

The well-prepared Yu Qianqian walked over. Dressed in a fitted leather jacket and knee-high boots, she appeared radiant, looking much better than she had in the past two days

Wen Jiu suddenly felt a sense of relief, how wonderful it was to no longer have to spend three more days with him. That feeling of cautiously standing on the edge of a trap, where one misstep could lead to falling in, was truly unpleasant. However, alongside this relief, there was also a hint of reluctance and regret.

At 10 PM, he called again, but it was still turned off

No need to trouble yourself, I will just take a taxi back. Aren't you in a hurry to see your grandfather

Yan Lu looked at Wen Jiu, who had already closed his eyes beside him, and gritted his teeth in anger. How could he have chatted with him to the point of dozing off? Was he really that uninteresting?

Everyone is evenly matched, resulting in a draw

He has not forgotten the events of seven years ago, but it is also something that can never be compensated for

He gently asked, "What is your nickname?"

What time do you finish work

Two girls turned off their phones and enjoyed three carefree days under the blue skies and clear waters of Hainan, while two men from Z City were on the verge of going crazy

Since everyone is in the business world, once it is mentioned, everyone knows each other, which makes the dining table even more lively

Everyone turned back to the living room. Wen Jiu also breathed a sigh of relief; with Yu Qianqian's departure, her task was considered eighty percent complete.

Leaving City X, there is a sense of relief in warming the wine. Staying a few more days would pose the risk of becoming trapped in emotions. Ending it at this moment feels just right, everything is perfectly timed

Do not call me boss

Yan Lu seemed a bit distracted, his gaze fixed intently on her figure, as if his heart had been drawn away by her.

Gu Mo chose not to mention it, while Yan Lu went to the Green Lawn Pavilion twice a day, morning and evening, and had been turned away so often that he was on the verge of developing an aversion to food

Shang Jingtian asked, "What happened?"

Oh dear, there is simply no way around this

Yan Lu pushed open the door, and saw Wen Jiu sitting in a rattan chair by the window, holding a book and reading. Dressed in a red garment with a natural face, her brows were delicate and her eyes enchanting, as she sat quietly in a beam of sunlight, resembling a vividly colored oil painting, strikingly beautiful and captivating.

How could she possibly not like a man as handsome, charming, and exceptionally talented as him

Warming the wine, she deliberately teased him, "Oh, a man in his thirties, mature and steady, is most favored by young girls, you wouldn't understand"

I have just arrived home

The moment the warm wine was consumed, she became clear-headed and rational. This was indeed a case of misfortune and coincidence; she and Yan Lu were two individuals who had no connection and were unrelated. According to the agreement, after seven days, he would pay the remaining amount, and she would no longer contact him. Those moments of affection were merely fleeting.

Ruan Shu exclaimed with joy, "That's wonderful"

Three years ago, due to the matter concerning Yu Qianqian, Yan Lu had a serious argument with his grandfather, which resulted in Gu Yingjie suffering a cerebral hemorrhage and being hospitalized. Since then, Yan Lu no longer dared to confront him head-on.

What specific work are you responsible for at your organization

Wen Jiu nodded slightly to him with a faint smile, responding in a nonchalant manner, "Hello"

Yan Lv smiled wryly: "Grandfather's call, Yu Qianqian reported the situation, I need to return to City Z immediately"

Yan Lu directly delivered the warm wine to her doorstep before finally putting down the wheeled suitcase

Shang Jingtian felt a sense of relief in his heart upon hearing Yan Lu's response

Well, there is actually no need to ask; the answer is quite obvious: she likes him

Shen Yuzhong carried the luggage for Yu Qianqian, while she herself held the wooden box containing her pet snake, Can Can, and bid farewell to her grandparents. Then, she and Shen Yuzhong drove away, one after the other.

Everyone was somewhat surprised, but Yan Lu wore an expression of utter indifference, with not a trace of astonishment or concern on his face, completely detached and unconcerned as if this matter had nothing to do with him

The warm wine can only be reported at the address: "Green Lawn Pavilion on Changjiang Road"

Looking at Shang Jingtian's radiant smile and recalling the scene from seven years ago, Wen Jiu felt no trace of joy in her heart. However, at this birthday banquet, she naturally could not appear out of place, so she suppressed her emotions and laughed along with everyone.

And Yan Lu lowered his gaze and smiled at Wen Jiu: "Even in ordinary clothes, you can wear them with elegance."

Wen Jiu paused for a moment and said softly, "Why should I tell you? Once the agreement is over, won't we no longer have any relationship?"

Shang Jingtian smiled politely at Yu Qianqian and Shen Yuzhong, saying: "Hello, Miss Yu. I believe I have seen this gentleman before; he looks quite familiar."

Shang Jingtian asked again: "Are your grandparents satisfied with the warm wine?"

I came to play with my friends

Your grandfather has a quick temper, so you must be careful not to contradict him

Yu Qianqian pouted and said: "In my opinion, it's not a matter of familiarity; rather, you are simply not Yan Lu's girlfriend at all"

Wen Jiu did not turn off her phone on purpose; she simply could not endure being harassed by Gu Mo any longer. Gu Mo knew that she was Ruan Shu's only friend, so as soon as Ruan Shu left home, his calls immediately came through to Wen Jiu. Of course, Wen Jiu would not admit that Ruan Shu was with her, resulting in Gu Mo incessantly calling. In the end, Wen Jiu had no choice but to turn off her phone to seek some peace and quiet

Yu Qianqian's expression changed immediately, and she mocked, "Oh, I didn't expect Young Master Yan to engage in rummaging through trash bins."

Ruan Shu, do you know who I met?

Upon hearing the words "not available," Wen Jiu felt a heaviness in his heart and then stepped towards his room

"Where are you?" Yan Lu asked directly as he opened the door, his voice urgent and low, sounding somewhat hoarse

With a smile while warming the wine, he said: "But once I think that the boss's money was given to me, I no longer feel distressed."

Yan Lujian raised an eyebrow, suddenly lifting his hand to rest against the door, looking down at her with a piercing gaze, and gritting his teeth said: "Try calling out again." His tone was threatening, yet his eyes held an unusual depth and tenderness, the voice that slowly emerged from between his lips was deep and seductive

Are there any good places to eat nearby you

The two aunts have always been fond of Yan Lu, and they worked together to speak highly of him, managing to calm Mr. Gu's anger with great difficulty. In the end, the stubborn old man reluctantly said: "In any case, this matter cannot be initiated by our family, unless Yu Qianqian first proposes to give it up, or the Yu family members do not agree."

Unfortunately, the kind gesture of warming the wine inadvertently became a flaw

Shang Jingtian and Yan Lu were chatting in the living room downstairs, while Shen Yuzhong quietly sat beside Yan Lu.

She concealed her emotions and teasingly said, "Boss, you don't need to pay the remaining salary; consider it my friendly performance."

Upon hearing the name "Mr. Yan," Yan Lu furrowed his brows and felt displeased, thinking that despite their already close relationship, he still addressed him in such a manner

At that moment, Grandma came out of the room, and upon seeing the warm wine, she smiled and said, "This outfit looks nice, truly beautiful. I have left breakfast for you in the kitchen, and I specially made some congee for you."

It would be good to spend a few days in Hainan

The warm wine had no choice but to be moved to the passenger seat.

Yan Lu let out a hum and said, "Don't you think he is quite old?" The thought of that so-called Uncle Ruan made him even more displeased. Clearly, there stood a handsome, outstanding man of similar age right in front of him. Why would one fawn over a man in his thirties? Ha, truly lacking in discernment

Dare to touch her and see what happens

She did want to take action, but I stopped her. However, even if it came to a fight, she would not be a match for Weng Jiu

No. 32, Middle Section of Jianghuai Road. It is a bit strange that Wen Jiu suddenly asked about this

Yan Lu was feeling frustrated when a call from Shang Jing Tian came in

Yes, where is the address? Should I go home first or to the restaurant
