“This is Master Lu from the Special Administration Office. Your mother has been paranoid these few days. Take it as giving her peace of mind.”
Mr. Lin explained briefly and immediately looked at Lu Zijia apologetically. “Master Lu, I’m really sorry for making a fool of myself in front of you.”
Mr. Lin felt very embarrassed about his son’s infidelity, but there was nothing he could do.
Lu Zijia smiled indifferently. “It’s fine. I wonder if it’s convenient for you to bring me to the places where Madam Lin sees unclean things?”
Lu Zijia didn’t show anything on the outside, but she thought to herself, the affairs of the Lin family could really be filmed into a melodramatic TV series. Many people would watch it.
“Something unclean?”
Zhong Jiajia looked confused. “Shouldn’t we hire a cleaning company if there’s something unclean at home?”
Lin Kedong’s expression changed slightly and he patted the back of her hand. “Don’t ask too much. Haven’t you lost your appetite these few days? I’ll take you to eat the French food you like.”
“Okay.” As expected, Zhong Jiajia didn’t ask further and nodded very obediently and sweetly.
“Mom, Dad, you guys go ahead. I’ll take Jiajia out for dinner.” Lin Kedong said to Mr. and Mrs. Lin.
Even though Madam Lin was a bit dissatisfied with her son doting on Zhong Jiajia, she thought that it was indeed not suitable for Zhong Jiajia to be here right now, so she agreed.
Mr. Lin had a similar attitude.
When Zhong Jiajia was pulled away by Lin Kedong, she looked back at Lu Zijia inadvertently, as if there was something hidden in her eyes.
Lu Zijia looked up and met her gaze, smiling at her meaningfully.
Zhong Jiajia met Lu Zijia’s bright eyes and immediately felt like her secrets were seen through. She couldn’t help looking away in a panic and she even stumbled on the way out.
“Master Lu, this way please.” Mr. Lin made an inviting gesture at Lu Zijia, apparently planning to show her around himself.
Mr. Lin took her to the bathroom of the master bedroom on the second floor first. Mrs. Lin stood in the master bedroom with a fearful expression and didn’t dare to enter the bathroom.
“How is it? Is there something dirty?” Seeing Lu Zijia come out, Mrs. Lin asked impatiently.
Lu Zijia didn’t answer but said, “Let’s take a look at the other places first!”
Madam Lin frowned, as if she wasn’t satisfied with Lu Zijia’s answer.
“Alright, this way please.” Mr. Lin led Lu Zijia to another place on the second floor.
After looking at the entire second floor, Lu Zijia’s eyes moved slightly and she looked at the stairs leading to the third floor.
“Mr. Lin, can you take me to the third floor?”
Mr. Lin’s expression changed slightly. He hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Sure, please.”
“No!” The moment Mr. Lin finished speaking, Mrs. Lin’s agitated voice also sounded.
Madam Lin seemed to realize that she had overreacted and quickly explained, “My son’s room is upstairs. My son didn’t say that he saw anything dirty. There must be nothing dirty up there.”
Lu Zijia smiled slightly and her bright eyes that were looking at Mrs. Lin gradually became deep. “Not seeing doesn’t mean that there isn’t.”
Madam Lin was shocked. “W-What do you mean? Is there really something dirty in our house?”
Lu Zijia smiled and didn’t answer, and her reaction made Madam Lin think that she had hit the nail on the head. Her face immediately turned a bit paler.
“Don’t think too much. You’re scaring yourself. You didn’t do anything wrong, so what are you afraid of?” Seeing Mrs. Lin’s obviously guilty look, Mr. Lin couldn’t stand it and scolded her in a low voice.
