Indifferent eyes focused on the woman’s face with a faint smile, as if thousands of words were stuck in his throat, making it hard for him to breathe.
After a while.
Lu Huai’an stood up, took the coat hanging on the rack, and handed it to Lin Chu, "What do you want to eat for lunch? After eating, I’ll take you to the Gu Family’s studio, Ji Wanxia will be there too."
Except for Qi Ming, she would only genuinely smile when she was with Ji Wanxia.
Lin Chu scratched her messy short hair, answering casually, "Anything’s fine, as long as it’s not poisonous, I can eat it."
Even though the weather had already turned cool, she still wore very little, a lightweight knitted sweater paired with a skirt, leaving her white and slender legs exposed to the air.
She had nothing left, only her beauty.
Lu Huai’an watched Lin Chu as she turned her back on him to straighten her clothes and hair, his gaze passing over those beautiful legs. His brows slightly furrowed, but he said nothing.
Because she wouldn’t listen.

The reason Lu Huai’an would bring Lin Chu to the Gu Family’s studio was because Gu Shaozhi was there.
They had business to discuss, sitting at the furthest distance from the stage.
Ji Wanxia didn’t have the mood to watch the program, she was there obediently only because of a fair trade with Gu Shaozhi.
It was a large-scale talent show that had been a hit all summer.
All were fresh-faced youths, and those who made it this far were not lacking in looks and talent.
During the rehearsal, Lin Chu was watching with relish. She elbowed her uninterested friend, "I think that guy in the black shirt is quite handsome."
Ji Wanxia glanced up, "He even broke his pitch, didn’t he?"
Lin Chu looked at her amusingly, "He’s only eighteen, don’t be so harsh. When I was eighteen, all I could do was ’haha’, young people these days are really amazing."
"You talk as if you’re already seventy or eighty years old."
"I just want to live to around fifty, when Qi Ming gets married and starts a family, and I’ve experienced everything I should, all the beautiful landscapes in countries big and small on Earth I’ve long since seen them. Living without any pursuits, it’s better to ask Meng Po for a bowl of soup earlier, maybe I can even choose, and avoid men with blinded hearts and eyes in the next life."
Lin Chu really thought this way.
When she gave birth to Qi Ming, she almost died on the operating table, leaving behind a chronic condition that will gradually reveal itself someday in the future.
Death wasn’t scary to her.
"If you can get An Ge to be my daughter-in-law earlier, I can be freed sooner. Good sisters should help each other out, don’t you think?"
Ji Wanxia looked at Lin Chu who smiled faintly, feeling a bit forlorn for a moment.
No expectation from life, no fear of death.
What kind of desolate heart is this...
"I will ensure Shen Weiyi gets the punishment he deserves."
A sudden topic.
Lin Chu stopped joking around, amidst the varying sounds of music, she clearly heard Ji Wanxia’s words.
"What are you doing?"
Ji Wanxia calmly watched as Shen the Superstar had just arrived at the rehearsal spot, surrounded by staff, praised by young people eager for fame, and enveloped in lights...
The culprit shouldn’t be living so splendidly, otherwise, this world would be unreasonable.
"Just take care of yourself, don’t worry about me. Just wait a few more days, wait a few more days..."
...
Lin Chu fell asleep again, and slept very soundly.
After finishing the business talk, Gu Shaozhi’s action of moving her head off Wanxia’s shoulder wasn’t gentle, yet she didn’t wake up.
Wanxia’s beautiful brows furrowed as she was strongly taken by the waist to stand and walk out, "What are you doing?"
Gu Shaozhi’s demeanor was irresistible, but his expression and voice were gentle, "Nothing worth watching here, let’s go eat."
They were just a few men with abs showing, were they really worth such serious attention from her? freёweɓnovel.com
Ji Wanxia wasn’t very cooperative, constantly trying to pry the man’s large hand off her waist, taking two steps and looking back in Lin Chu’s direction.
"Didn’t you see Xiao Chu fell asleep? That chair doesn’t have much to hold onto, what if she falls..."
"Huai’an will go there after finishing his call," Gu Shaozhi interrupted her.
He stopped walking, looking down at her displeased little face.
"This is my place, which staff wouldn’t have their eyes open? Besides, if someone that big could still roll to the ground, it means it doesn’t hurt. Falling a few more times will teach her a lesson."
Ji Wanxia, "..."
No wonder Xiao Chu couldn’t stand him from the beginning; it seems she had her reasons.

Lu Huai’an didn’t come to the sports day on Friday.
