"This year, my girlfriend graduated from college and found a decent job. I’m planning to join my father’s construction business. Even though I might not amass extreme wealth, I’ll at least be able to Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience..." Li Weihuan continued.
"You are planning to settle down, but you know your mother would never agree and your girlfriend wouldn’t consent to marry you because of your mother’s objection... So you’re hoping to bypass your mother by getting my grandfather to agree to your marriage?"
There was no ripple of emotion on Lu Yinchu’s face as he flicked the ash off the cigarette in his hand and asked, "What will you give to the girl you love if she stays with you? Do you offer her more or less than others would? What’s more? What’s less? Where’s the extra happiness she gets by being with you, compared to being with others?"
Li Weihuan furrowed his brows, moved his lips but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
Lu Yinchu said, "Weihuan, a woman marries you in hope of receiving the life she desires. Marriage isn’t a child’s play. You are an adult, a man. Since you love this girl, shouldn’t you pave a path to happiness for her before you can ensure to give her unique happiness in this world? Otherwise, why should she marry you? And why couldn’t she marry anyone else?"
Upon hearing this, Li Weihuan’s heart suddenly thumped.
After finishing dinner with Li Weihuan, Mo Yan was already waiting outside. Lu Yinchu asked Li Weihuan, "Where to? I’ll give you a ride."
Li Weihuan shook his head, "No need, it’s not on your way."
Lu Yinchu’s lips thinned, not insisting. He only said, "Weihuan, don’t rush. What you need to do now is enrich yourself and build up your abilities, so that you’re capable of protecting everything you want to protect, including people."
While Li Weihuan was momentarily startled, Lu Yinchu had already gotten into the car. The car door closed, and Mo Yan smoothly started the engine. The car made a perfect 360-degree turn and pulled away.
Li Weihuan stood there, pulling out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket — the pack that Lu Yinchu had just given him.
He moistened his lips and in the end, shoved the cigarettes back into his pocket. He hailed a taxi and left.
Within the Land Rover, Lu Yinchu drew back his gaze. His thin lips remained stoically cool and proud. Mo Yan stayed silent, enlarging the man’s silence in the confined space of the car.
Thus, when the abrupt ring of a cell phone echoed, both men felt slightly uncomfortable.
It was Lu Yinchu’s phone!
The call was from Nanxi, and his remark for the number was: My girl!
Lu Yinchu’s brow furrowed slightly, but then he answered without hesitation. His magnetic casual voice said, "Hello?"
"Hello!" A girl’s voice came from the other side, causing Lu Yinchu’s eyes to flicker slightly.
Because this voice didn’t belong to Nanxi.
The girl on the other side continued to speak, asking him, "May I speak to Mr. Lu Yinchu?"
Lu Yinchu’s thin lips tightened and after a pause, he replied, "Yes, I am Lu Yinchu."
"Mr. Lu..." The girl on the other side obviously sounded excited, "Mr. Lu, hello, I am Nanxi’s roommate, Yang Su! Nanxi has a cold, but she is reluctant to go to the hospital, so..."
"Where are you?" Lu Yinchu interrupted her, his voice was so cold that it took Yang Su aback.
"Where are you now?" Lu Yinchu asked again, his voice colder than before.
Lan Qiqi, who was Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience. Moreover, she was holding Nanxi’s cell phone!
Lan Qiqi was startled, "Susu, you didn’t call Li Weihuan, did you?"
Nanxi also looked worried and turned to Yang Su. Yang Su gave an awkward smile and said, "No, no, I didn’t call Li Weihuan. This is what happened... Nanxi’s phone rang just now, and I answered it."
Nanxi felt a sudden shock in her heart. Someone called her? And looking at Yang Su’s unnatural expression, she naturally thought of a certain person...
But why would a man who didn’t want to see her just last night call her?
Nanxi walked over and said to Yang Su, "Let me see."
Yang Su held the phone and didn’t give it to her.
Nanxi said, "Susu, it’s alright. Give it to me. I think... I think I know who called."
