Chapter 110 Her Innocence

Summer vacation has begun.

Lu Qi was making breakfast when he suddenly saw Lu Jin coming down from the second floor. He asked in surprise, "Weren't you having a long phone call with your girlfriend today?"

Ever since Lu Jin got a cell phone, he has been receiving video calls from Xia Zhen frequently, without exception, every single day.

I don't know where they got so much to say. Xia Zhen saw an ant on the road and vividly described how the ant carried food.

But Lu Jin listened with great interest to these trivial matters.

Lu Jin walked to the dining table and sat down. "Zhenzhen has something to do today and has to go out."

Lu Qi placed a glass of milk in front of Lu Jin and said with a smile, "I knew it, you came down so early today."

Lu Qi sat down opposite Lu Jin, took a sip of rice porridge, and said slowly, "Lu Yuan is going back to China soon. That child is a bit clingy, so you don't have to worry about her."

Lu Jin asked, "Do you need me to pick someone up from the airport?"

"No need." Lu Qi smiled slightly. "There are people who are more eager to pick them up than we are."

Upon seeing Lu Qi's gentle and refined smile, Lu Jin knew that this man was definitely plotting something again.

It's a cloudy day today, not too hot.

Although Wen Yu is a big star, Xia Zhen has never visited the film set before; this is the first time.

Today she was wearing a purple floral dress, with her hair in a ponytail as usual. Below her long, white legs were a pair of beige sandals. Although her outfit was simple, she looked incredibly youthful.

Xia Zhen held the ice cream Xia Yu had bought for her in her hand, following behind Xia Yu at a leisurely pace. Because Xia Yu had such a strong aura, and because Xia Zhen was so beautiful, their appearance as a group immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Director Long Tao's eyes lit up. He rushed in front of Xia Zhen and looked her over from head to toe, his excitement growing.

Xia Yu pulled Xia Zhen behind him, displeasure flashing in his dark eyes, his voice carrying an air of authority. "Watch your gaze. She's not someone you can just look at casually."

What a domineering CEO!

Long Tao's eyes lit up as he looked at Xia Yu. His next project was a modern idol drama, with a domineering CEO as the male lead and a naive and innocent female lead. This man was simply the best choice for a domineering CEO!

Long Tao excitedly asked, "Sir, are you interested in acting?"

He was a theater fanatic and had no interest in anything else. Whenever he needed investment, other people would handle it, which is why Long Tao didn't know the famous Xia Yu.

Before Xia Yu could even reply, Long Tao set his sights on Xia Zhen, "Perfect, absolutely perfect! Little girl, do you want to act? I guarantee I can make sure your status in the entertainment industry is no less than Wen Yu's!"

Xia Yu's voice rang out along with the woman's, "She's not interested."

The woman who walked over with a graceful sway was Wen Yu, dressed in a green silk robe.

They had seen Wen Yu in period dramas and movies, and even without all sorts of filters, her looks were stunning. But when they saw Wen Yu in period costume in person, everyone had to admit that this woman was even more beautiful than she appeared on TV.

Xia Yu was stunned for a moment. When he noticed that the men around him were all looking at Wen Yu, he swept his sharp eyes over.

Xia Yu looked like someone important, and the others awkwardly looked away. Some recognized Xia Yu and couldn't help but wonder if this CEO Xia had some kind of relationship with Wen Yu.

Even if Long Tao was stupid, he would know that these people had an unusual relationship. Someone pulled him aside and whispered, "This is Xia Yu, the CEO of Xia's Group."

Long Tao belatedly realized that he had actually invited this CEO Xia to act in a movie. He shuddered and quickly walked away from the kind person who had reminded him.

Wen Yu crossed her arms and asked, "Why are you here?"

Her makeup today was very light, lacking her usual aggressiveness, and instead giving her a more innocent and youthful look.

That's for sure. Wen Yu has put a lot of effort into maintaining her appearance. When she goes out with Xia Zhen, people will wonder if they are sisters.

While eating ice cream, Xia Zhen suddenly felt a hand push her from behind. She said sincerely, "Mom, I missed you, so I begged Dad to bring me to see you."

Xia Yu stood straight in place, motionless and expressionless, as if it were true that Xia Zhen had said, "If Zhenzhen hadn't begged me, I wouldn't have planned to take over the investor status from Lu Qi."

Wen Yu smiled at Xia Zhen, "I recently acquired a batch of new pink diamond jewelry, all of the latest seasonal pieces. However, I feel that pink diamonds are too delicate and not suitable for me, but they would suit you quite well."

Xia Zhen's eyes lit up. "Mom, I don't miss you anymore. Dad, let's go home!"

Xia Yu grabbed Xia Zhen, who was about to leave, and said with exasperation, "Xia Zhen!"

This little girl really has no integrity in business; she doesn't follow the rule of first come, first served at all!

Xia Zhen was yelled at. She blinked, her eyes quickly welling up with tears. "Dad, you yelled at me!"

When Xia Yu saw Xia Zhen about to cry, he felt a pang of regret, but he couldn't bring himself to do it, so he coldly said, "Don't cry."

Xia Zhen then threw herself into Wen Yu's arms, whimpering, "Mommy, Daddy scolded me, I don't want to live with him anymore, I want to live with you!"

Wen Yu patted Xia Zhen's head. "I'm very busy and don't have time to take care of you."

"I'm all grown up now, I don't need you to take care of me."

Wen Yu hesitated for a moment, but considering that she and Xia Zhen rarely saw each other, she nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Xia Yu felt a surge of anger and frustration. His wife was gone, and now his daughter had run away too!

Xia Zhen leaned against her beautiful mother's chest, looking longingly at her elderly father. "Dad, remember to come to Mom's house and bring my clothes over."

Xia Yu paused slightly, then calmly straightened his tie and said indifferently, "Understood."

His stern face seemed to say, "This is such a hassle, and I don't want to go to Wen Yu's house."

But he was secretly pleased with himself.

He knew that Xia Zhen was still most fond of him, her father, after all, and he had even yelled at her just now.

Xia Yu felt a real pang of guilt. Looking at his daughter's pure and innocent face, he felt that he hadn't done enough.

His daughter is so well-behaved and sensible, yet he used to only give her such a small allowance, which wasn't even enough to buy a house. He has decided to double the allowance he gives her from now on!

Wen Yu pinched her daughter's face, smiling without saying a word.

Xia Zhen looked completely innocent; she had no idea why her mother was pinching her cheek with a forced smile!
