Chapter 297 - I’ll Fetch You Tonight
Chapter 297: I’ll Fetch You Tonight
Mrs. Lu left after she had finished breakfast.
Just as she walked out of the courtyard, the First Madam chased up to her and said, “Ersao, hold on.”
Mrs. Lu stopped and waited for her.
The First Madam came out and revealed a kind expression. “I know that you must not be feeling good deep down, but Father said that this is for the wellbeing of Jingye.”
Mrs. Lu pursed her lips and looked at her while she sneered deep down.
The First and Third House had been dissing the Second House regularly in front of Elder Lu.
Due to work-related issues, the Second House had moved outside several years ago.
Over the years, her husband and sons had pushed the Lu Family into the first position among the eight great aristocratic families and she thought that they would become the heroes of the family. However, what they received was the First and Third House’s jealousy. They felt that it was the Second House that deliberately held all the rights in their hands, and the disgusting things they had done in secret were plenty to count.
She did not have to think to even figure out what happened with the issue between her eldest son and Little Zi.
When the First Madam saw her remain silent, she continued. “Ersao, I doubt you know what kind of person that girl named Zi Yi is. I heard that…”
“Dasao[1].” Mrs. Lu called out.
The First Madam was somewhat displeased that Mrs. Lu interrupted her. However, she still maintained a smile and asked, “Ersao, what are you trying to say?”
“I know what kind of person Zi Yi is better than you. I am also well aware if she is good or not. No matter what, you should not wag your tongue behind people’s backs.”
The First Madam’s expression stiffened. On second thought, if Lu Jingye truly fell in love with that woman, he would definitely incur Elder Lu’s rage at the time. Perhaps Elder Lu would retract all the power in his hands.
At the thought of this, the First Madam’s attitude changed. “What you said is right. But you should know that our Father is used to having the final say. He has concluded that the woman Lu Jingye likes does not have a good reputation and he will never like her.”
Mrs. Lu looked at her and she slightly retrained her expression. She had also thought of this matter and so, she planned to discuss this with her husband and eldest son.
“Dasao, I still have something to do. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”
“Sure, take care.”
The moment Mrs. Lu left, Lu Zhiheng walked out and called out, “Mother.”
The First Madam looked at him. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that this son had suffered.
“If you were to take over the Lu Group, you would certainly not do any worse than Jingye.”
Lu Zhiheng also had the same thought. The mother and son walked towards their courtyard.
When they arrived at their residence and were behind closed doors, the First Madam said, “I suddenly thought of a good idea earlier. Say, if Jingye goes against your grandfather because of that woman, would he take back Jingye’s rights out of anger?”
Lu Zhiheng also had the same thought. “Mother, this idea is good. But… Second Brother has a meticulous way of thinking he might not make Grandfather angry.
Therefore, he had also thought of another idea.
The First Madam was bent on having Lu Jingye and Elder Lu have a fallout. “Isn’t that easy, we’ll just bring some suitable women to Elder Lu and as long as he fancies any, wouldn’t he make plans for Jingye to meet them?”
…
Due to Lu Jingye’s return, Zi Yi woke up early in the morning and did not even bother to change her clothes as she opened the door and headed towards Lu Jingye’s room.
She wanted to see his sleeping appearance.
However, the door opened as soon as she got to the door.
Lu Jingye was standing there.
He first glanced at the clothes she wore before he looked at her face.
“Good morning, Ah Jing~”
“Why didn’t you change your clothes?”
Lu Jingye was about to step out and Zi Yi directly pressed herself against the doorframe as she smiled at him.
The young lady had a beautiful appearance and coupled with the fact that she just woke up, her cheeks were ruddy. In particular, her bright and watery eyes unconsciously revealed her charm.
Zi Yi leaned forward and looked at him as she asked in displeasure, “Why did you wake up so early?”
The neckline of her pajamas lowered as she leaned forward, revealing her pale collarbones.
Lu Jingye grabbed her waist and said in a hoarse voice, “I’m making a trip back to the villa.”
Zi Yi placed one hand on his shoulders and pulled his collar with another. “Wait for me then. I’ll go with you.”
Her hand on his shoulder moved and embraced his neck as she blinked her beautiful eyes. “Before I change my clothes, shouldn’t you give me a good morning kiss first?”
Lu Jingye’s line of sight unconsciously looked down at her red lips. The next second, her lips were sealed and his grip on her waist tightened.
Lu Jingye only released her quite sometime later and his voice was much hoarser than before. “Go change your clothes. I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
“Okay.”
When Zi Yi got changed and came down, Lu Jingye stood up from the sofa and they both headed outside together.
Zi Yi suggested. “Let’s run there.”
“Okay.”
It took twenty minutes of jogging from Zi Yi’s courtyard to Lu Jingye’s villa and it could be considered a morning exercise.
When they returned to the villa, Lu Jingye went to get her things and Zi Yi went strolling around his yard.
While strolling, she subconsciously took out her phone and connected to all the surveillance, and started to inspect the villa.
She discovered several anomalies as there were a few blind spots.
When Lu Jingye came out, she mentioned this to him.
“Here, here and here. There’s something wrong with the surveillance cameras in these three areas.”
Lu Jingye nodded and said, “I deliberately asked my men to leave an opening.”
Zi Yi was puzzled.
Lu Jingye pointed at several points and explained. “My men discovered that someone is planning to steal from my villa and these areas are places for them to come in through.”
At that time, he could catch them all.
Zi Yi did not continue to ask him about this.
The two of them made their way back to Zi Yi’s villa.
After breakfast, Lu Jingye received Mrs. Lu’s phone call.
Mrs. Lu asked him to make a trip back.
Lu Jingye agreed and asked Zi Yi afterwards, “Yiyi, what plans do you have today?”
“I’ll most probably head to the bar.”
Lu Jingye nodded and said, “I’ll fetch you tonight.”
…
When Lu Jingye came back, Mrs. Lu recounted everything his grandfather had said to her in the morning.
In the end, she said worriedly, “Your grandfather is used to having the final say and I’m honestly worried that he will get people to cause trouble for Little Zi.”
Lu Jingye thought for a moment and said, “Mother, don’t worry. I’ll talk to Grandfather later.”
After Lu Jingye left the house, he told the driver to head to the Lu Family’s main residence.
…
Zi Yi headed to the bar and checked through all the programs. While she was planning to check how much she had earned yesterday, she saw Little Loli sitting alone at the bar as she propped up her chin, seemingly to be in deep thought.
She walked over and asked, “Little Loli, what are you doing?”
Little Loli turned around and her eyes simulated tears falling down as she sobbed. “Master, A refused to video call with me again last night.”
