139: Chapter 126: Staring Through the Window, They Make a Great Pair_1 139: Chapter 126: Staring Through the Window, They Make a Great Pair_1 At a corner, she picked it up, Lu Yinchuâs voice was warm and deep on the other end of the line: âNanxi, Iâm at the entrance of your school, waiting for you!â
This afternoon, Lu Yinchuâs father would be coming back, so when this call from Lu Yinchu came, it was not surprising to Nanxi!
Nanxi sent a text message to Yang Su, then hurried towards the school gate.
It was still the same black Land Rover, and Nanxi took a deep breath before approaching it!
Lu Yinchu pushed the car door open, âGet in!â
Nanxi frowned, asking him, âYou said weâll meet at noon, didnât you?â
Without answering, Lu Yinchu opened the other car door and got out.
Nanxi was stunned, glancing around nervously, âMr.
Lu, why did you get out?â
âWhy?
Shouldnât I get out?â Lu Yinchu walked a few steps and stood in front of her.
He was handsome, and fascinating!
Nanxi was anxious, âOkay, Iâll get in the car.
Please get back in, Mr.
Lu!â
Nanxi pleaded, she was afraid.
The car was only about fifty meters away from the school gate, despite being parked in a corner, it was still dazzling, and Lu Yinchu was so strikingâ¦
Nanxi had a headache, because Lu Yinchu took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it, showing no intention of getting back in the carâ¦
âIâm thinking about going back to H Universityâs canteen to relive the feelings from my school daysâ¦
I wonder if Chef Wang from the canteen has retired or if his culinary skills have improved â¦â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
Clearing her throat, Nanxi felt as if Lu Yinchu was messing with her?
What should she do then?
Coax him?
Impossibleâ¦
âMr.
Lu, if you want to eat, I can get it for you from the canteen next timeâ¦but that wonât help now⦠I donât have my meal card with me.
Yes, meal card!â
Nanxi spoke hurriedly, her face looking like a bitter gourd!
Lu Yinchu looked at her and smiled faintly, âSo, before that, how about I treat you to breakfast first, and you can pay me back next timeâ¦â
The man gestured toward his car, asking her to get in.
Unable to resist, Nanxi complied!
Lu Yinchu exhaled a ring of smoke, there was always a smile on his lips, his eyes glittering like stars, so beautiful that Nanxiâ¦didnât dare to look!
Lu Yinchu took her for breakfast at a restaurant downtown.
Nanxi didnât know the price, but their pumpkin congee was delicious.
Nanxi loved it, it reminded her of when her mom used to make itâ¦
Lu Yinchu didnât have the pumpkin congee, he just ordered a cup of soy milk and casually flipped through the newspaper in his hand, finishing in just a few minutes!
Nanxi cleared her throat, trying to make conversation, âMr.
Lu, you read newspapers really fast!â
âIgnoring forty percent of public opinion and forty percent of entertainment news, of the remaining twenty percent of useful information, I casually skim through and ignore ten percent of that which is irrelevantâ¦So naturally I read the rest ten percent pretty fastâ¦â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
Lu Yinchu chuckled, but his gaze was very sincere.
âNanxi, society is complex with a lot of information.
What you need to do is catch the useful information from the pile of complexities, understand?â
Nanxi nodded, feeling that he made a lot of sense!
After their meal, Nanxi asked Lu Yinchu if there was anything else to be done, considering his father would only be back by night!
Lu Yinchu said, there was nothing else, it was just a way for the two of them to get to know each other better!
Nanxiâ¦frowned!
Lu Yinchu said, âMy sister, my mother, and my grandfather are, relatively speaking, the easier people to deal with in the family.
But this doesnât mean that my father must be a difficult elder!
In fact, my father is very enlightened, he is a person who deserves respect!â
Nanxi listened to his words attentively, not daring to interrupt in any way.
Next, Lu Yinchu described his fatherâs basic situation and character traits.
Nanxi needed to be aware that his father was a scrupulous man who paid close attention to the details.
If he didnât cooperate well with her, it was highly likely that his suspicion would be aroused!
Nanxi blinked her eyes, thinking that she wasnât a professional actress.
If someone was watching and questioning her, she might panic and give herself away!
Lu Yinchu reassured, âDonât worry about it.
Iâve prepared something.
If my father sees it, he may reluctantly accept our relationship under pressure.â
Nanxi asked, âWhat is that?â
Lu Yinchu smiled but didnât answer!
Nanxiâs curiosity was piqued even moreâ¦
Just as they were leaving the breakfast shop, Lu Yinchuâs phone rang.
She told Nanxi to wait in the car while she stepped aside to pick up the call.
Before Nanxi got in, she heard him answer the phone gently, âWhat happened?â
Not knowing what the other party had said, he continued, âIâm outsideâ¦â
Nanxi did not have the habit of eavesdropping on othersâ privacy, and quickly closed the car door, isolating all external sounds.
The call lasted quite a while, leaving Nanxi idle in the car.
When she turned to look at Lu Yinchu, he finally hung up and walked over with a somber look.
After getting in the car, Nanxi could sense the tense atmosphere and didnât dare to speak.
Strapping on his seatbelt, Lu Yinchu said to her, âIâll take you back to school first, then pick you up in the afternoon.
I have some business to handle!â
Nanxi nodded, âItâs no problem, you can drop me off here.
I can get back to school by myself.
You should go deal with your business first!â
The man didnât respond and started the car right away!
The car sped along so quickly that the journey, which usually took twenty minutes, was completed in just a quarter of an hour.
As Nanxi got out of the car, she quickly said âThank youâ and âGoodbyeâ before turning and running awayâ¦
After running some distance, she stopped and looked back.
The black car had already gone far!
Standing there with her eyebrows knitted together, Nanxi felt inexplicably hollow.
She didnât even know whyâ¦
When she returned to the dormitory, Yang Su and Lan Qiqi were packing things up.
Surprised, Nanxi asked what they were doing.
Lan Qiqi said, âThe day after tomorrow is Dragon Boat Festival.
My old man was hit by a sudden whim and told me to go home since my thesis is finishedâ¦
I suppose itâs been several months since I last went home, so I decided to go.â
Yang Su nodded, âYeah, I havenât been home in a while either.
My sister is spending the festival at her husbandâs house, so only my parents will be home.
Itâs quite lonely, so I decided to go with Lanlanâ¦â
Nanxi didnât say anything but simply asked if theyâd already bought their tickets.
Yang Su said theyâd reserved high-speed train tickets over the phone for eight oâclock that evening!
Nanxi wanted to see them off, but she knew she wouldnât be able to, and felt a touch of guilt.
All she could do was apologize!
Lan Qiqi said, âWhy are you being so formal with us?
We have to come back after going home, right?
And when I said I wanted to stay in H City, I wasnât joking!â
Yang Su said, âMe neither!â
Nanxi just smiled.
At around four in the afternoon, Nanxi received a call from Mo Yan.
He was coming to pick her up!
Nanxi furrowed her brows.
She had expected Lu Yinchu to pick her up.
Once in the car, Nanxi didnât ask, but Mo Yan, who was adept at reading people, said, âMr.
Lu had some urgent business to deal with.
He wonât be long!â
Nanxi just said, âOh.â
Mo Yan drove the car to the front of a company building.
The building was rather impressive, but the name was not KING.
From inside the car, Nanxi squinted and managed to make out the company name: Yuetian!
It suddenly came back to her.
The last time Sister Yang Su had visited, sheâd left a business card, which had the job title âPlanning Department Director of Yueting Groupâ on it.
She remembered that the owner of the card and the title was named Han Qing!
A warm, beautiful and elegant woman!
She had seen her once at Han Baobaoâs brotherâs birthday party.
Han Qing mentioned Lu Yinchu a few times, and since she was from the Han family, she must know him.
So, was Lu Yinchu here to see her?
Noâ¦
it wasnât right to assume that.
He was probably here to see Han Shaojing!
Nanxi patiently waited in the car while Mo Yan remained silent, not saying a word.
She knew he was accustomed to being quiet.
After about five minutes, Nanxi finally saw Lu Yinchu appear.
He wasnât alone; two men in professional suits and a woman walked out with him.
The woman had long hair draped over her shoulders, and her fitted cream dress showcased her curvy figure.
Walking beside Lu Yinchu, who was neatly dressed in a casual suit, they looked perfect together.
They were a good match!
The woman seemed to be laughing and appeared to be in high spirits.
Because of the high heels she was wearing, her hand casually rested on Lu Yinchuâs arm until they descended the steps.
A red BMW pulled up, and the woman waved goodbye to him with the other two men.
He nodded and then came over with a blank expression.
Nanxi quickly averted her gaze and moved a little further into the carâ¦
In the unnoticed space, Han Qingâs gaze lingered on the black carâ¦
for two seconds!
