The moment she opened the door, Bai Lu rushed towards the person at the door without hesitation.

"Brother Jingyuan, you're finally here. I was scared to death!"

She hugged the person at the door tightly, trying to make her voice sound softer, waiting for the other person's comfort.

The person at the door raised his hands, at a loss as to what to do. He had never expected this situation to happen. The people who were traveling with him were also stunned, their eyes full of inquiry and confusion.

"Miss, could you please let go first? We are on a police call and this is against regulations."

Bai Lu, immersed in joy, then realized that something was wrong. The voice was not Tang Jingyuan.

She looked up suddenly, and when she saw the person she was holding, she screamed in fright and quickly stepped back.

She thought it would be Tang Jingyuan who came, but she didn't expect that the person knocking on the door was actually a policeman.

The policeman coughed twice and said, "Excuse me, is this Miss Bai Lu? We received a call saying you were being followed, correct?"

Bai Lu took a while to come back to her senses. She nodded blankly, and when she thought of the clothes she was wearing, her face flushed. She said "excuse me" in a hurry, went in quickly to put on her clothes, and covered herself tightly before coming out again.

The two policemen saw through Bai Lu's thoughts at a glance. They had encountered such situations before.

"Miss Bai, please tell us the details of the situation. We will check the situation nearby later to ensure your safety."

Bai Lu gritted her teeth and cooperated with the police to complete the statement, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.

On the phone, Tang Jingyuan clearly promised to come and see her without any hesitation, so why did the police come in the end?

It must be Lu Anning!

She secretly clenched her fists and forced a smile as she sent the two policemen away. Looking at the careful plan arranged in the corner, she lost all mood.

Lu Anning was a much smarter woman than she had imagined. After seeing the photos in the circle of friends, she kept her composure and did not cause trouble for herself. She could even easily resolve the turmoil on Weibo.

It seems that if she wants to hold on to Tang Jingyuan, she will have to put in some effort.

She leaned back on the sofa and sighed.

When will she be able to own her own big house, drive a luxury car and enjoy life!

That Lu An Ning wasn't much better than her. They were both orphans, so why should she marry Brother Jing Yuan?

I am younger than her. If she can do it, can't I do it too?

She slowly closed her eyes, and in her mind she imagined herself as Mrs. Tang, high and mighty. Suddenly, the phone beside her rang, and she opened her eyes abruptly, thinking it was Tang Jingyuan calling.

When she saw the name, the smile on her face immediately fell.

Without thinking, Bai Lu pressed the mute button, thinking that she had fallen asleep and didn't hear anything. Just when she was feeling bored, there was another knock on the door.

Bai Lu stared at the door suspiciously: "Who?"

No one answered her, and the knocking continued, and she became alert.

Without making a sound, she quietly came to the door and looked through the peephole. When she saw the familiar face, all of Bai Lu's dissatisfaction surged up.

What is supposed to come doesn’t come, and what is not supposed to come will come to you on its own.

She opened the door, her tone filled with impatience: "What are you doing here?"

"Lulu, aren't you happy to see me? I've specially brought someone here to see you."

"Noble? What noble?"

Bai Lu didn't think that there was anyone in Kyoto who could be compared with Tang Jingyuan.

Luo Peng stepped back, revealing a delicately made-up face. Bai Lu's gaze fixed on the Hermès in her hand. It was a new model, worth hundreds of thousands. Even the watch itself cost over three hundred thousand.

She asked tentatively, "Miss, what is your name?"

The visitor smiled slightly: "Miss Bai, have you heard of the Gu family in Kyoto?"

Bai Lu was shocked. How could she not know about the Gu family in Kyoto?

"Miss Bai, why don't you invite me in and sit down?"

Bai Lu finally reacted and quickly made way. She glanced at Luo Peng and began to make her own plans.

Until later, Bai Lu never called Tang Jingyuan again, and there was no movement at all.

Tang Jingyuan learned from the police that the surveillance footage did not show any strangers entering the community or apartment building, and Bai Lu was safe and sound.

Lu An Ning had expected this result, and he took a sip of hot tea with his lips curled. He could imagine how ugly Bai Lu's face must have been when she saw that it was the police knocking on the door.

"Professional matters should be left to professionals."

Tang Jingyuan smiled helplessly: "Yes! I remember it."

Tang Jingyuan also realized that he seemed to be too nervous about Bai Lu's affairs.

Because of Bai Yue, he always wanted to make up for Bai Lu more. He almost forgot that there were some things he shouldn't do.

Lying on the bed, Lu Anning rested her head on Tang Jingyuan's arm, leaning against his chest, and the two talked about Bai Lu again.

"I don't object to you helping her, provided you don't cross the line."

She looked up at the impeccable face. Perhaps this man didn't know how attractive he was in the eyes of the women outside.

"Over the years, you've only funded Bailu's studies. The rest of the time, she has to face it alone. You're worried about her being bullied, but hasn't she been alone all these years? Just because she met you, she can no longer do anything?"

Lu Anning reminded Tang Jingyuan: "She can stand in front of you now, so she must have her own way of survival. Bai Lu is not as fragile as you think!"

Tang Jingyuan took a deep breath and admitted, "I was careless about Bai Lu's matter. I won't do that again! This weekend, Director Liang asked us to go horseback riding at the manor. Pack two sets of clothes tomorrow. We may have to stay there for two days."

"Want to ride a horse?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do it. I'll teach you when the time comes."

Lu Anning smiled and said, "I understand."

They said they were going out to have fun, but Lu Anning guessed that these big shots gathered together because they must have something more important to discuss.

The weather is getting warmer and the sun is shining, which is more suitable for outdoor sports.

The manor was built in the suburbs, covering thousands of acres of land, and became a private manor. Lu Anning only realized after he went there that the Baroque-style castle in front of him belonged to the Gu family.

As luck would have it, when they parked the car, they happened to meet Gu Yue and Lu Yunxi who had just arrived.

The moment their eyes met, the atmosphere became subtle.
