Lu Mingyu suddenly remembered that the first time he saw her was by the river near Jinyuan.

He remembered that his elder brother had a private villa in Jinyuan, so Lu Mingyu frowned and looked at Xu Rubao in disbelief.

"So you've been living with my brother? So the first time I saw you, you were coming out of my brother's villa?"

When Xu Rubao heard the words "cohabitation," she was startled and instinctively covered Lu Mingyu's mouth.

Just as she was about to reach out, she realized it was inappropriate and pulled her hand back.

It's peak school season now, with people coming and going. It would be too conspicuous for her and Lu Mingyu to stand here.

"It's not what you think, I...we don't live together."

"Then why are you living with my brother? You kept it from me, Xu Rubao, you've gone too far."

Seeing that he was about to get angry, Xu Rubao couldn't help but sigh, "Our family's herbal medicine shop had some problems before, so I agreed to work for Mr. Lu for a year. Anyway, that's the truth, and there's nothing you can do if you don't believe me. I'm going to be late, so I'm not talking to you anymore."

After saying that, Xu Rubao ran away.

She didn't want to stand here with Lu Mingyu and be stared at, and she especially didn't want to become too famous at school.

Lu Mingyu was heartbroken; he couldn't accept this fact for a while.

He simply didn't believe their relationship was that simple; who were they trying to fool?

Who is the older brother? Putting everything else aside, just the fact that he took her to school today tells you that their relationship is unusual.

Although he... he doesn't like Xu Rubao right now, she has the right to choose her own partner.

But the thought that person is the older brother makes me uncomfortable.

He watched as Xu Rubao's figure entered the school gate, and frowned. Could it be that he had misunderstood something?

Xu Rubao was incredibly beautiful, so he didn't find it strange at all; it's normal for men to love beautiful women.

However, Xu Rubao was definitely not a stunning beauty. If it weren't for that birthmark, she would at most be considered a pretty woman, but not to the point of being breathtakingly beautiful.

Lu Mingyu became increasingly confused. No, he had to get to the bottom of this.

My older brother will probably go back to the Lu family's old house for dinner this weekend; he's usually quite good to me.

Xu Rubao returned to the classroom and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's all that bastard Lu Jingheng's fault. I told him I didn't need him to send it, but he insisted on sending it anyway, and Lu Mingyu even saw it.

She was a little worried, so she sent a message to Lu Jingheng, saying that Lu Mingyu knew they knew each other.

After the message was sent out, a class period ended, but there was still no response.

Doesn't Lu Jingheng care about this? Is she overthinking it?

That's true, I'm not that important to Lu Jingheng yet.

Never mind what the Lu family thinks, going to class is the priority.

At this moment, in the president's office of the Lu Group, Lu Jingheng was listening to his subordinates report on their work.

As for the little wildcat's message, he couldn't be bothered to reply to her.

It's good that Mingyu knows; it's not like it's anything shameful, so he's not worried at all.

But that little wildcat, taking her to school, made it seem like he was some kind of underground party member, which annoyed him a lot.

Lu Jingheng pondered when to label her so that people would know she was his, so that no one would covet her.

Mo Dong watched as the two department heads finished their reports, but the president seemed lost in thought, showing no reaction whatsoever.

The two department heads became nervous as they watched the president remain silent. Had there been a problem with their report?
