The butler hesitated for a moment and said, “But if Secretary Jiang drives personally, it should be fine. Miss Mei Shu, is your home far from here? If it’s not far, Secretary Jiang can give you a ride.”

Mei Shu answered with a playful smile, “It’s not far. If Secretary Jiang doesn’t mind, I’d appreciate the ride.”

“Jiang He is busy, and he’s not at your service!” Lu Si slammed his teacup onto the table in frustration. “Old Li, didn’t I ask you to find something in the storeroom just now? Have you found it?”

“Um…” The butler hesitated and awkwardly shook his head. “Not yet, but I’ll go now, Master Si. If you need anything, just let me know.”

With the butler out of the way, Lu Si assumed his role as the master of the house even more, pointing to the couch across from him. “Sit down. I advise you to listen to me. Change your clothes first; Jiang He has other things to do and can’t escort you home right now.”

With that, he pretended to ignore her and began flipping through some documents, while sneaking glances in her direction.

Mei Shu suddenly felt a bit cold.

Since she couldn’t leave at the moment, she might as well make herself more comfortable.

She picked up the clean clothes the servant had brought and examined them, finding that they surprisingly fit her well. She looked at the man beside her in surprise. “Whose clothes are these?”

“I don’t know,” Lu Si said calmly, still engrossed in the documents. “You can change in the adjacent room. Seeing your drenched appearance, I’ll make an exception and allow you to take a hot bath at my house.”

“Thank you.” Mei Shu picked up the clothes and started to leave.

Lu Si’s mood inexplicably improved.

He watched as Mei Shu opened the room’s door, and it felt as if his heart followed her into the room.

His pocket vibrated, and Mei Shu paused to check her phone, only to find a call from Lu Yan.

“Hello? What’s wrong?”

“I just found out you’ve already left. It’s raining heavily outside. Have you reached home? Do you want me to drive over to pick you up?”

As soon as she answered the call, Lu Yan’s anxious voice came through the receiver.

Mei Shu’s phone had some sound leakage, and Lu Si, who was nearby, could clearly hear the conversation.

“No need, I… have already reached home.” Mei Shu didn’t know why she hesitated to speak the truth.

Lu Si’s mother was currently worried that she might start a relationship with her son. If she found out that Mei Shu was about to take a bath at his brother-in-law’s house, the Lu family might create a huge commotion.

Mei Shu didn’t want to be bothered by family politics, especially when her relationship with Lu Si was entirely innocent and there was no need for others to misunderstand their connection.

“That’s good.” Lu Yan’s voice on the other end was heavy with regret. “Shu’er, I’m sorry for bringing you here tonight. You had a miserable time, and it’s all my fault.”

“It shouldn’t be blamed on you, Lu Yan. I understand your intentions. Don’t worry, we’ll still be the best of friends in the future.” Mei Shu comforted the young man on the other side, who was already choked up.

Lu Yan had always treated her well in her two lives, and she didn’t want him to continue being sad for her.

However, Lu Yan’s heart had been hurt deeply by his mother. His voice quivered as he spoke, “I’m sorry, Mei Shu. Regardless of what my mom and you talked about, you must believe that it wasn’t my intention. Mei Shu, in my heart, you are

Lu Yan suddenly hesitated.

Mei Shu asked in curiosity, “Hmm? What do you want to say? Just say it.”

“I… in my heart, I’ve always thought of you as my childhood friend, and Zhou Li was just my neighbor from my childhood. I hope you don’t misunderstand.” Lu Yan used a more tactful way to express his feelings.

Mei Shu looked surprised and was about to say something when her phone was suddenly taken from her.

Lu Si’s hot chest pressed against her back, as if he had enclosed her within his arms. He held the phone and gazed down at Mei Shu who seemed lost in thought. “Sorry, she just got caught in the rain and needs to take a bath soon. She can’t talk to you right now.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Si abruptly ended the call and put the phone back in her pocket. “Go take a shower.”

Mei Shu clicked her tongue and stared at him pointedly. “Who asked you to answer the phone for me?”

Lu Si said righteously, “Your conversation disturbed me while I was working. Besides, he’s my nephew. Why can’t I answer the call?”

He intentionally emphasized the word “nephew,” as if he wanted to remind her of something.

Mei Shu genuinely felt that this man had become quite annoying since he turned into a spoiled child.

“You can’t snatch my phone like that. What’s our relationship anyway?”

Lu Si let out a cold laugh and said, “We don’t have any relationship, but you are my nephew’s best friend. As an elder, I kindly remind you that if you don’t take a bath now, you might catch a cold later.”

“Elder?” Mei Shu nodded reluctantly and muttered to herself, “Great. Watch how 1 irritate you later!”

“What did you say?” Lu Si looked at her strangely, but she slammed the room’s door with a loud bang, as if venting her frustration, leaving him outside..
