C16 Asthenia of Heart
"It seems like we are too late. The Lu family is the most suitable to host the banquet."
It was too late to regret. Lu Yunsheng quickly instructed his wife, "Prepare a heavy gift. Tomorrow, all three of us will go."
"Yes, yes, I understand." Madam Lu left with a beaming smile.
The next day.
In the morning, Wen Xin was distracted during class. She had never been to any high-end clubhouses, and she did not know what kind of banquet it was at that night. What if she lost face?
She had another headache. She didn't see her uncle when she came home last night. She didn't know if he was out gambling or hiding.
His promise for the last time really made Wen Xin very suspicious.
However, it was true that it was not easy for Wen Changming to pull her up. She only had one uncle, and she could not do anything that would save her life.
"Wen Xin, let me tell you, the campus belle from the computer department next door heard that she got off a luxurious car yesterday. Now the whole school is talking about her, saying that she was taken in by a wealthy businessman!"
Slap!
The pen in her hand fell onto the table. Wen Xin averted her gaze, feeling uneasy.
The other party did not seem to notice her strange behavior. He continued speaking with great interest, "How shameless. I despise those kinds of mistresses the most. I wonder what they think. They have hands and feet. Can't they earn money by working?"
Wen Xin's eyes slightly reddened as she lowered her head and pursed her lips, not saying a word.
After talking for a long time without getting any response, Yun Miner looked at her in surprise, "Xin Xin, weren't you the first one to scoff when you heard this kind of thing in the past? Why didn't you say anything after I talked for a long time? Aren't you shocked? I think it's quite shocking. The other party is our school belle A!"
"Min Er, I'm not feeling well. I'll be leaving first."
Yun Miner was Wen Xin's best friend in school. She was straightforward and never spoke sloppily.
It was also because of this that when Wen Xin heard her words at this moment, she felt nothing but guilt and pain.
She had now become the shameless woman that Min'er spoke of. If Min'er knew the truth in the future, would she still be friends with her?
"Hello, Wen Xin? Wen Xin?"
Seeing her run away like that, Yun Miner's face was full of suspicion.
She rushed to the school gate and saw the familiar Maybach parked there. Her heart skipped a beat and she suddenly turned around and walked to the other side.
No, he couldn't just board a luxury car in front of everyone. Otherwise, the news of him being kept would quickly spread throughout the entire school.
The driver looked at her in surprise, hesitated, and slowly followed.
Wen Xin looked around the corner about a hundred meters away from the school. After making sure that there were no students from her school, she quickly opened the car door and rushed in.
The driver was surprised. "Miss Wen, what are you doing?"
... "Well, hello, how may I address you?"
Seeing how polite she was, the uncle driver laughed and said, "Just call me Uncle De."
Taking a deep breath, Wen Xin suddenly looked like she was begging Uncle De. "Uncle De, can I trouble you with one thing? When you pick me up at school, all of you will be in this position, okay? I don't want my classmates to know about my relationship with that gentleman."
"Uh, I need to ask Young Master about this."
Wen Xin,... "Alright."
"Did she really say that?"
In one of the presidential suites in the Cang Emperor Hotel, Lu Cangyao looked coldly at himself in the mirror while elegantly buttoning up his exquisite cuff links.
Uncle De, who was standing behind him, answered nervously, "Yes, I said I need to consult the young master."
