Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
How could Lin Xia dare to have any objections?
She wished she could just bite her tongue off!
But when did Lu Si, who had always been alone, have a female companion? Moreover, this was a woman whom no one in their circle had ever seen before… Before Lin Xia could figure it out, Lu Si lowered his head and spoke softly, “I’m sorry for being late. Come inside with me.”
Mei Shu wanted to break free from his embrace, but she found that his strength was unexpectedly greater than her own. If she struggled too much, they would both be hurt.
Mei Shu gritted her teeth and held back her impulse, allowing him to hold her until they disappeared from the sight of the crowd. Only then did she immediately leave his embrace and asked coldly, “Who are you?”
“A person who just helped you.” Lu Si lazily sat down on a chair, and a waiter quickly came over to offer him a glass of red wine.
“Have a seat.” He looked at the seat opposite him and casually pointed,
“Prepare some low-alcohol fruit wine for this young lady.”
“Yes.” The waiter hurriedly withdrew.
Mei Shu stood still.
She felt that this man’s identity was too mysterious, and she probably shouldn’t be entangled with someone like him.
Seemingly knowing what she was thinking, Lu Si directly stated, “Realizing that my identity may be too dangerous, you want to escape? It’s a survival instinct of small animals. But you’ve known so much about me. Do you think you still can escape?”
Mei Shu furrowed her eyebrows. “What is your purpose?”
Lu Si chuckled lightly. “Don’t misunderstand. I helped you just now out of good intentions. Otherwise, how could I let my little nanny stand outside and be bullied by others?”
“Who is your nanny?” Mei Shu couldn’t help but retort, but then she remembered how she had taken care of his second personality, even needing to coax him with candy like taking care of a child. Wasn’t she like his nanny?
But thinking about the money he promised to pay, Mei Shu suppressed her displeasure and sat stiffly across from him. “Alright, you can consider me as your nanny. Thank you for your help earlier.”
“You’re welcome.” Lu Yan raised an eyebrow and praised sincerely as he looked at the dress she was wearing today. “This dress suits you well, very beautiful.” Mei Shu glanced at him. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Lu Yan took a sip of red wine and answered quickly.
There was a moment of silence between the two.
With Lu Yan sitting there, it seemed as if an invisible barrier had formed around them, and no one dared to approach.
Inside, the head of the Zhou family and Mrs. Zhou heard that Lu Si had come and hurriedly came out to greet him.
When dealing with Lu Yan, they could show an elder’s attitude and reminisce with him.
But facing Lu Si, although he was also young, no one dared to act presumptuously in front of him.
“Master Si, I didn’t know you were coming. Please take a seat inside!” Mr. Zhou said politely.
Lu Yan was standing behind Zhou Liang and was about to speak when he was suddenly stared at by Lu Si. He was stunned and chose to close his mouth.
Lu Si leaned back in his chair, lazily rotating the high glass in his hand, with an air of elegance. “I’ll sit for a while and then leave. You all can go inside. I have something to say to this young lady.”
Zhou Liang then noticed that there was a very pretty girl sitting opposite Lu Si. He had just returned to Lin City and had not attended Mei Shu’s welcome banquet, so he naturally didn’t recognize her.
However, Zhou Li knew Mei Shu’s identity. She whispered a few words into her father’s ear.
Mr. Zhou’s expression changed, and when he looked at Mei Shu again, the subtle restraint in his eyes disappeared, leaving only an imperceptible hostility.
Seeing that he was still staring at Mei Shu, Lu Si frowned discontentedly and slammed the high glass heavily on the table, making a soft “clink.”
Zhou Liang immediately came to his senses and quickly led his wife and daughter away, leaving the two of them some space.
At this critical moment, even if Zhou Liang wanted to cause trouble for Mei
Shu for his daughter, he didn’t dare to do so in front of Lu Si!
Lu Yan also wanted to stay and listen to what his uncle wanted to say to Mei Shu. However, with just a light glance from Lu Si, he felt as if he had been electrocuted all over his body, and his brain went blank. He only knew that if he didn’t leave now, his uncle might teach him a lesson!
The consequences would be unthinkable!
After all unnecessary people had dispersed, Lu Yan smiled contentedly and said, “Now there’s no one to disturb us. I heard that you are studying hacking technology from S?”
Mei Shu was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, “You know S too?” Of course, he knew. S was the talent he personally recruited for the company! However, in front of Mei Shu, Lu Si didn’t want to reveal his identity. He just changed the topic and asked, “What do you want to do with this knowledge?” Mei Shu asked in doubt, “Are you really concerned about my affairs?” Lu Si replied nonchalantly, “When I transform into my second personality, I am no different from a child. For my nanny who takes care of me in that state, of course, I want to know more about her.”
Mei Shu coldly responded, “If you don’t trust me, you can just do without me.” “But I’m paying you a high salary.” Lu Si said confidently.
Mei Shu:”…” He really got her there!
Although she didn’t have to earn this money from him, she naturally wanted to seize such a good opportunity to earn money!
