"Huh? No, no, no, I was just kidding!"

Lu Fan said righteously, "How could I possibly be annoyed by you? Never."

There's no other way; you can't back down in a situation like this.

This girl may not be good at much else, but when it comes to tattling, no one can beat her.

Lu Fan didn't want to get a scolding from his parents when he got home.

That's not even the scariest part; just imagine what it would be like if your wife got angry...

The consequences would be something Lu Fan couldn't afford to bear.

He felt there was absolutely no need to provoke his sister, as it would be very detrimental to him.

When it's time to admit a mistake, you should do it. It's just telling a couple of lies.

What's so difficult about that?

"Tch, that's not what you just said!"

Lu Xi curled her lip and glanced at Lu Fan with disdain.

"Why the change so quickly? Are you scared?"

Seeing Lu Fan quickly admit his mistake, Lu Xi also began to stand up for herself.

Knowing that his weaknesses have been exploited, there's no need to be afraid of him now.

Lu Fan doesn't really have any weaknesses.

If I had to name one, it would probably be his wife, Jiang Manyue.

Apart from her... there shouldn't be anyone Lu Fan is afraid of.

Even when facing Xu Bing, a business talent, Lu Fan remained completely unconcerned and handled the situation with ease.

I never took it seriously.

This shows that Lu Fan is still quite afraid of Jiang Manyue.

It's less about fear and more about respect.

Lu Fan was also worried about Jiang Manyue, fearing she would be unhappy, and he didn't want that to happen.

"Tch, when have I ever been afraid?"

Lu Fan, all talk and no action, said, "I just realized I was wrong, that's why I admitted it, understand? As a man, you have to be responsible and have the courage to admit your mistakes."

"Even at my level, everyone makes mistakes. It's unavoidable. But a strong person is one who has the courage to take responsibility for their mistakes."

Suddenly having a good idea, Lu Fan immediately changed the subject.

He started talking about life philosophy again, so Lu Xi shouldn't be able to do anything about it now, right?

However, Lu Fan seemed unaware of one thing: Lu Xi seemed to hate hearing him say these things the most...

Lu Fan got more and more excited as he spoke, slowly stood up, put his hands behind his back, looked at Lu Xi and continued:

"Xixi, you're still too young to understand what I'm saying, but you'll understand someday. If you want to succeed, you have to learn from your older brother, understand?"

At this moment, Lu Xi felt as if her mind was filled with countless dots and points.

Why is it that no matter what the topic is, my brother can always bring this up?

Is this what talent is?

Lu Xi suddenly felt that her brother could easily become a self-help guru in the future.

That would absolutely confuse those students.

However, Lu Fan was completely unaware of this. Seeing that his sister was not speaking, he assumed that she had really listened to him.

Anyway, the main thing is to make her forget what just happened.

Otherwise, this silly girl is capable of anything.

Who knows, he might video call his parents and wife tonight...

You'll be the one who suffers in the end!

"Fine, fine, just this once."

Lu Xi waved her hand speechlessly: "There absolutely can't be a next time. I'm going back to my room now."

After saying this, Lu Xi turned around and walked out of Lu Fan's room.

Lu Fan's voice followed closely: "Hey, remember to close the door behind you."

However, Lu Xi acted as if she hadn't heard anything, completely ignored it, and walked out directly.

Lu Fan: "..."

Does anyone actually do that?

When you enter someone's room in the middle of the night and leave, you don't even close the door behind you?

That's absolutely outrageous.

Do you know how much this can hurt someone who is lying in bed?

Do you know how much I don't want to move?

Isn't this forcing me to exercise?

It's a good ten meters from my bed to the door.

At this moment, Lu Fan looked at the distance of more than ten meters and fell into deep thought.

He was carefully considering whether or not he should close the door.

Or rather... should I let the act of closing the door restart my body and get some exercise?

After thinking about it carefully for a moment, Lu Fan felt that it was completely unnecessary.

Anyway, there's no one else in the villa except for the two siblings, so what difference does it make whether the door is closed or not?

Yes, it's simply because closing the door was unnecessary...

It's not because he's lazy at all.

In the end, Lu Fan completely convinced himself.

——

On the other side, a luxurious five-star hotel.

The two women slowly woke up and found themselves lying on chairs next to the dining table. They looked at each other with great confusion.

Because the two woke up almost at the same time, they didn't notice anything amiss.

I just thought I was drunk, so I fell asleep.

"It's really strange. How did I get so drunk on just this little bit of alcohol? And I think I completely blacked out. I don't remember anything from before, except that we were eating and chatting together..."

"I'm about the same. Maybe it's because I'm getting older. It seems like we're really suited to finding someone to be our sugar daddy and then enjoying our retirement...etc."

One of the girls suddenly remembered something.

They drank too much and fell asleep, but what about Xu Song?

This is their cash cow... We absolutely cannot be negligent in the slightest!

But he doesn't seem to have eaten yet. Isn't this a disaster?

Goodness, those two have certainly eaten and drunk their fill.

But we don't even know if Xu Song has eaten yet. If we don't take good care of him, what if he gets upset...?

The consequences were predictable; now, we've finally gotten this opportunity.

Being kept means they will never have to accompany this person or that person again.

All we need to do is take good care of Xu Song, but it seems that something unexpected has happened.

"Where's Young Master Xu? Oh no! Quickly go to his room and see if he's asleep. Remember to keep your voice down and don't wake him."

So the two women began frantically searching for Xu Song inside the hotel.

Finally, the two found Xu Song on the balcony.

At this moment, Xu Song was lying on the floor of the balcony, fast asleep.

"What... why is Young Master Xu sleeping here? It's so cold on the ground, won't he catch a cold?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't wake up Young Master Xu. We didn't take good care of him before... Sigh, he can't drink so much anymore, drinking leads to trouble."

"I think so too. Sigh, now we can only hope that Young Master Xu doesn't blame us, otherwise we simply can't bear the consequences."

"It'd better not be our fault, otherwise we're all doomed..."
