She reached out and ordered another cup of coffee!
It wasn’t until she finished her third cup that she saw Lu Beichen stand up. Tu Yingying jumped up and rushed over, straightening her dress carefully and asking, "Brother Beichen, are you done talking with cousin?"
"It was just some business matters. You can chat with Beichen; I’m heading back to my room first!" Lu Beiyao replied to her and left first.
Tu Yingying suddenly felt nervous and uneasy, standing in front of this man feeling both excited and scared, her nerves on edge!
Clearly, she liked and admired him, but him standing there seemed to radiate a coldness that kept people at a distance.
She hadn’t even opened her mouth when Lu Beichen asked, "Are you full?"
Could he really be so concerned about her? Tu Yingying nodded excitedly.
Lu Beichen responded blandly, "I’m full too, let’s head back to the room!"
He strode off with his long legs, and Tu Yingying jogged to catch up, "Brother Beichen? I have something to say to you!"
Lu Beichen stopped and looked back at her, and Tu Yingying bit her lip, about to speak, but Lu Beichen spoke first, "Yingying, you practically grew up in the Lu Family, right?"
Tu Yingying looked at him blankly for a moment, then quickly nodded.
"So! I’ve watched you grow up, and you’re also my dear cousin! Nian Nian is your close nephew, during these days in Switzerland, please take good care of him. Your cousin-in-law will be back soon, I’ll go back to the room to wait for her! Good night!"
After saying that, he walked briskly toward his room.
It was the first time Tu Yingying heard him say so much to her, his voice so pleasant it made her shiver, even his departing figure was so upright and charming.
But, how could he just leave like that?
When she returned to her room, she finally understood the meaning behind Lu Beichen’s words. Emphasizing he saw her as a sister, and he even passed on the little troublemaker Lu Sinian to her, while cleverly showing off his affection!
"Argh!" Tu Yingying angrily pounded her pillow, unable to maintain her ladylike demeanor any longer.
She got up and knocked on Lu Sinian’s door, and Lu Sinian eagerly went to open it. Seeing it was her, his expression changed, and he immediately tried to close the door.
Luckily, Tu Yingying was quick and blocked the doorway.
She wore a gentle smile and looked at Lu Sinian, "Nian Nian, weren’t you the one who wanted to work with me? Shouldn’t we discuss now how to split them up?"
Lu Sinian finally let her in and shrugged, "Sister Tong already went out, and you can’t even handle Mr. Lu, running to me for a solution—I really don’t want to cooperate with someone so dense!"
With no one else around, Tu Yingying pinched his little cheeks, "Don’t be so smug, if it weren’t for you begging me, I wouldn’t even think of a way to bring you over!"
"Who begged you? As soon as I mentioned they were going on a honeymoon, you were jumping around like a monkey, and I was the one who suggested how to get here!" Lu Sinian was very annoyed by her pinching, and he grabbed her arm and bit down hard.
Tu Yingying screamed out loud, just about to raise her hand, when she heard knocking from outside, "Nian Nian, is this your room?"
Lu Sinian’s expression turned cold, "You dare lay a hand on me?"
His gaze was sharp, despite his young age it was full of coldness, just like Lu Beichen! Tu Yingying hurriedly withdrew her hand, feeling a little regretful, "I was just anxious to push you away, who said I want to lay a hand on you?!"
She clutched her bitten arm, howling in pain, while Lu Sinian thought her reaction was overly dramatic, giving her a disapproving look. Then suddenly his eyes lit up, he lifted the blanket and said, "Get in and keep screaming in pain!"
