Madam Lu was furious with him. After all, Zi Mo had known him for so many years. Even if she couldn't give him any face, she should at least give him some respect, okay?

"Alright, then take me back."

"Okay..."

Before leaving, Lu Jingheng glanced back at Xu Rubao, making Xu Rubao quite nervous.

Xu Rubao watched them leave, then breathed a sigh of relief. Madam Lu didn't seem to be the kind of domineering rich woman who was completely unreasonable.

In the car, Mrs. Lu scrutinized her son's face, somewhat doubting what she had just witnessed.

"Aheng, you really don't like Zimo? I think she's a good girl, well-mannered, generous and proper. I can tell she's liked you from the start. You really want to miss out on such a wonderful girl?"

Lu Jingheng gripped the steering wheel tightly, staring at the road ahead, then replied casually, "Mom, if you think she's so great, why don't you marry her?"

When Madam Lu heard her son teasing her, she couldn't help but snort coldly, "You brat, I'm serious. You dare to joke with me? Do you like someone like Xu Rubao?"

Lu Jingheng didn't speak, nor did he directly answer her question. "Mom, don't worry about my affairs. I have no interest in Xia Zimo. Stop causing trouble in the future."

Madam Lu couldn't help but rub her temples. He didn't object directly, which seemed to indicate that he was somewhat interested in the girl.

However, the Lu family is a respectable family. If they marry such an ugly daughter-in-law, where will they put their face?

Perhaps this kid is just a flash in the pan. Even if he doesn't like Zi Mo, there are still many outstanding ladies from prestigious families.

She refused to believe that there wasn't anyone inferior to Xu Rubao.

"That girl said she owes you money? Is that true?"

As she listened, she felt that this whole thing seemed incredibly unreliable.

Lu Jingheng nodded slightly, and then looked at the Lu family gate and arrived.

He drove in, and the ornate iron gate slowly opened. He parked the car and said, "Mom, we're here. You can get out now."

Madam Lu glanced at him. "Aren't you going home? Where do you want to go again?"

"Mom, I have other things to take care of, so I won't be home for dinner."

Mrs. Lu was very upset, feeling that he just wanted to go back to the small villa.

Judging from his appearance today, it's as if he's afraid someone will bully Xu Rubao.

If I get married in the future, I really don't know if I'll forget my mother.

Lu Jingheng drove back to the villa.

His return puzzled Xu Rubao. "Why did you come back?"

Looking at her expression, Lu Jingheng was in a bad mood. "This is my place. I can come back whenever I want."

Xu Rubao certainly knew this was his territory, but the key question was: hadn't he just escorted Madam Lu back? Didn't he need to stay with Madam Lu again? Didn't he need to have lunch at the Lu family's house before returning?

"Of course, this is Mr. Lu's place. So, what would you like to eat for lunch?"

Xu Rubao asked politely, afraid of angering him, because he didn't look very happy.

She found it strange; Lu Jingheng hadn't shown Xia Zimo any mercy when speaking to her today.

She clearly remembered that the last time Xia Zimo came, he didn't have that attitude.

Moreover, Xia Zimo seemed to have a good relationship with Madam Lu, and thinking about Xia Zimo's reaction today, she felt a little pleased.

However, no matter what, it would be best if Xia Zimo didn't come here anymore, so she wouldn't have to worry about being tricked by her again.
