Lu Jinchen stopped in his tracks and hesitated for a while. In the end, he turned around and returned to his seat.
Bai Qiushui went to the bathroom to fix her makeup.
When she came out again, Lu Qing was already at the entrance of the restaurant in her wheelchair.
âSister Lu Qing, youâre here.â
Bai Qiushui hurried over and took the wheelchair from the nanny.
âSister, you can tell me if you want to have the food here. Why did you come all the way here?â Lu Jinchen also got up and pulled out the chair in front of the table.
If Lu Qing hadnât asked Lu Jinchen out today, he wouldnât have come here.
âI havenât been out for a while, so I wanted to come out for some fresh air.â Lu Qing was pushed to the front of the table. She looked at the table full of food. Then, she looked at his brother and future sister-in-law, who was waiting for her and smiled.
âSister Lu Qing, I just bought a new leg massager. Itâs good for relaxing your leg muscles. you can take it back and try it.â Bai Qiushui said as she took out the gift she had prepared.
âQiushui, youâre too kind.â Lu Qing asked Auntie Li to take it. âHowever, Iâm afraid my legs canât be healed completely. Itâs already been four years, and you have massaged me a lot.â
Lu Jinchen gave her some food with his chopsticks.
âLetâs eat first. It wonât taste good if itâs cold.â
âYou should give Qiushui some food.â Lu Qing reminded.
Lu Jinchen stopped eating. He picked up the chopsticks and put something into Bai Qiushuiâs bowl.
Lu Qing nodded with a smile and started to eat.
Bai Qiushui was flattered, and her face turned slightly red.
She had not seen Lu Jinchen for a few months.
Lu Jinchen didnât like it when Bai Qiushui went to the company to look for him. He didnât like it when she went to the Lu residence to look for him. he also didnât like it when she called him.
She could only meet him through Lu Qingâs help.
After the three of them finished their meal, Lu Jinchen wanted to send Lu Qing home. But when Bai Qiushui heard that, she quickly said she was free in the afternoon and wanted to go to the Lu residence to accompany her sister.
Bai Qiushui thought that with Lu Qing around, Lu Jinchen would not reject her request to step into the Lu residence.
Howeverâ¦
Lu Jinchen said that he had something to do at the company and went back to the company directly.
Bai Qiushui looked at his cold back and bit her lip with a wronged expression.
âTake it slow, Qiushui. Jinchen is a career-minded man. He doesnât have any other woman besides you. â Lu Qing consoled her.
Bai Qiushui nodded.
âI know,â after thinking for a while, she still mentioned it. âSister Lu Qing, I just saw Mu Yao.â
âWhat?â
Lu Qing was so shocked that she almost stood up from her wheelchair.
âSheâs backâ¦â Bai Qiushui recounted what had just happened in the dining room, adding some extra details to the story.
As Lu Qing listened, she couldnât help but grab her knees tighter and tighter.
âSister Lu Qing, do you think she came back at this time because she heard that Jinchen and I are about to get engaged? â
âDonât worry. As long as Iâm here, Mu Yao will never step into the Lu family again.â Lu Qing gritted his teeth. His tone sounded more like an oath.
Bai Qiushui relaxed.
â¦
On Mu Yaoâs side, after leaving the restaurant with Song Yufei, they didnât find another place to eat. Instead, they went straight back to the company.
The car had just arrived at the companyâs entrance.
Bai Zhenkaiâs secretary walked over.
âMiss Mu, District Mayor Bai is waiting for you at the teahouse in front of the company. Please make a trip there.â
Song Yufeiâs eyes were wide open in disbelief. Bai Zhenkai was asking her female subordinate out in broad daylight.
âBai Zhenkai, are you not ashamed? Although old cows love to eat young grass, youâre too old!â Song Yufei cursed in his heart.
