C2 Place of Accommodation

"You're out of jail?" His voice was very pleasant, but it seemed somewhat ethereal in the wind and rain.

Zurich nodded and backed away as if to avoid it. "If Uncle has nothing else, I will take my leave."

"Why are you avoiding me like this?" Lu Qianqi called out to her from behind, "Are you still thinking about the past?"

Su Li's body stiffened as she clenched her teeth and shook her head.

"It's raining so heavily, and you're wearing so little, so where are you going? I'll send you on your way." Lu Qianqian held his umbrella as he walked behind Su Li. His driver could only silently drive behind him.

Su Li was silent. The world was vast, but she didn't know where to go.

Seeing her expression, Lu Qianqi could roughly guess the reason. He went up and pulled Su Li into the car and told the driver indifferently, "Let's go to the North Courtyard first."

Lu Qianqi should also be going to the Lu family for the banquet. His silver-gray suit made him stand tall and straight. Due to standing in the rain just now, his trousers were stained with mud. His bangs were slightly loose, covering his slender eyes.

She was sitting in a corner, her seat soaked with mud, her head bowed in a gesture of inferiority.

Lu Qianqi handed over a packet of tissues. After Su Li received it, he said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

Su Li did not dare to speak to Lu Qianqi because the economic case that she committed was precisely Lu Zhengqing secretly transferring the assets of the company under Lu Qianqi's name, which was worth millions.

She was already lenient towards Lu Qianqi after being sentenced to five years of imprisonment. However, she never thought that the only person who could give her a bit of shelter today would be him.

Lu Qianqian said, "I remember you are five years old."

"The prison said I was doing very well, so I kept getting my sentence commuted." Zurich wiped the rain from his face with a paper towel, revealing his slimmer cheeks.

After getting off the car, Su Li didn't dare to stand under Lu Qianqi's umbrella. Instead, he stayed by the side of the corridor and said, "Thank you, Uncle, for sending me down the mountain. I better not go up." "I have always let you down."

A trace of pity flashed across Lu Qianqian's eyes. "Go and eat something first and take a bath. Wait until your spirit has recovered."

Suri had actually not eaten for a day. The amount of money she earned from working in the prison was only enough for her to ride to the southern foot of the mountain.

She finally followed him upstairs.

Lu Qianqi's house in the North Courtyard was his own property. It had a Chinese style and was decorated in an ancient manner. Su Li felt as if he had returned to the old days in a trance.

Lu Qianqi led her to the bathroom outside the guest room. "Do you know how to wash?"

The bathroom wasn't an old-fashioned style. Zurich nodded and opened his luggage bag to get his clothes. Lu Qianqi saw several pieces of old clothes and a file bag inside.

He stopped her, "Go wash, I'll get someone down to buy you a new dress."

Su Li was stunned and his eyes instantly turned red. She did not want Lu Qianqi to see her in such a sorry state, so she immediately stepped into the bathroom and closed the door.

The faint sound of Su Li's sobbing could be heard from inside. Lu Qianqi helplessly shook his head. He turned around and went to the living room to call the driver to get him.

The driver was also Lu Qianqi's personal assistant, named Zou Jin. He was meticulous in handling his affairs and didn't talk too much, so Lu Qianqi always wanted him to accompany him out.

Lu Qianqi had told him to do two things. First, to buy some new clothes according to S number, and to buy them from the inside to the outside. Second, to order some takeout from a high-end restaurant downstairs.

Stunned, Zou Jin couldn't help but retort, "Fourth Master, this woman stole your money. She stole it herself, so why did you do this to her?" "Look at San Ye's side. No one cares about her, so why do you care about her?"

The Third Master was nearly twenty years older than Lu Qianqi, and was Su Li's former father-in-law. The Third Master's son, Lu Zhengqing, had ignored Su Li and directly rushed down the mountain while Lu Qianqi took her in.
