[I'm so confused. What excuse can I use to get Li Xiaoyi to give up trying to get in touch with me? I'm so annoyed. I don't even want to go eat.]
Lin Yan was thinking, the message on her hand had not been replied yet.
Lu Jinghuai beside him seemed to be woken by something and asked in a hoarse voice, "Which of your college roommates asked you out for dinner? If you don't want to go, just refuse."
Lin Yan hummed casually and said, "Or I'll just say you don't agree with me..." Go.
Lin Yan's words stopped at her lips and her body froze for a moment. Lu Jinghuai seemed to have realized something, his sleepiness disappeared and he immediately woke up, his body also stopped.
Lin Yan sat up directly from the bed and looked at Lu Jinghuai with complicated eyes.
"How did you know Li Xiaoyi asked me out for dinner?"
Lu Jinghuai fell silent. For a moment he felt relieved, as if the window paper had finally been broken.
Lin Yan's mind was extremely confused at this time. She used to be a materialist and would not think much about such things.
But ever since her experience of traveling through a book, her worldview seemed to have been reshaped, and she quickly thought of three words.
Mind Reading
"You have the ability to read minds. You can hear what I'm thinking." Lin Yan opened her mouth several times, but still asked after closing it.
Under Lin Yan's gaze, Lu Jinghuai couldn't say anything to deceive Lin Yan. He nodded for a long time under Lin Yan's burning gaze.
Lin Yan's pupils shrank noticeably.
Lin Yan's mind was extremely confused at this time. She even wondered when Lu Jinghuai developed the ability to read minds and how much Lu Jinghuai knew through mind reading.
Lu Jinghuai heard clearly her background and her thoughts.
She even felt a little cold all over. She felt like she was standing naked in front of Lu Jinghuai, without any cover at all.
Lu Jinghuai understood Lin Yan's thoughts in an instant and explained immediately.
"Yan Yan, I can't always hear your thoughts, especially recently. Apart from just now, the last time I heard your thoughts was several months ago."
It was also because the mind-reading ability had not appeared for a long time. He was confused and did not react at all. When he heard Lin Yan's voice, he subconsciously talked to Lin Yan and did not realize that the voice was wrong.
However, at this time, Lin Yan didn't listen to Lu Jinghuai's explanation at all.
"Go out first and let me calm down."
Lin Yan only felt a headache. She had no intention of facing Lu Jinghuai at this moment, nor did she want to face Lu Jinghuai, because she had no idea that her inner thoughts would be heard by Lu Jinghuai.
Lu Jinghuai's body stiffened for a moment, and he looked at Lin Yan, whose eyes were red and her face was full of vigilance. In the end, he did not explain anything, but just responded.
"Okay, I'll go out first. I'll be in the study next door. Calm down and call me if you need anything."
Lu Jinghuai left the room, and the moment the door closed, Lin Yan's tense body relaxed.
However, the chaos in her mind did not stop. She tried hard to remember from the first time she met Lu Jinghuai.
Lin Yan thought that something was wrong with the plot she had experienced from the very beginning, and she thought that his arrival had caused the plot to completely collapse.
Now thinking back carefully, maybe it’s not just because she traveled through the book, but more because Lu Jinghuai awakened his mind-reading ability.
Lu Jinghuai knew the development of the plot from her mind, so he found Lu Yingqian in advance.
She even had a feeling that Lu Jinghuai had taken her to Xiaoliang Village to find Lu Yingqian just to take advantage of her familiarity with the plot.
Besides this, what else hadn't she thought of? Lin Yan felt a splitting headache.
Lu Jinghuai stood at the door for a long time, until around seven o'clock, when Lu Yingqian's room door opened. She sensitively noticed something was wrong.
Lu Yingqian subconsciously glanced at the master bedroom door: "Brother, is sister-in-law still not up?"
The emotions on Lu Jinghuai's face had subsided. He didn't want Lu Yingqian to notice that something was wrong, so he just found an excuse.
"Well, your sister-in-law is feeling a little unwell and is taking a break today. You can go downstairs to eat first and ask Aunt Liu to leave a breakfast for your sister-in-law."
"Oh." Lu Yingqian answered obediently without thinking much and walked downstairs, but she noticed something was wrong when she went downstairs.
The sister-in-law was not feeling well, so why was her brother standing at the door instead of staying in the room to take care of her? It looked as if the sister-in-law had kicked her brother out of the room.
So... my brother and sister-in-law had a fight?
In an instant, Lu Yingqian seemed to understand, her eyes widened, and then she couldn't help but wrinkled her nose.
In Lu Yingqian's opinion, no matter what, it was Lin Yan's fault that Lu Jinghuai and Lin Yan had a quarrel. Lin Yan was pregnant, and it was almost eight months, and Lu Jinghuai still made Lin Yan angry.
Lu Yingqian sighed deeply, but still conveyed Lu Jinghuai's words to Liu Ma.
When Aunt Liu heard that Lin Yan was feeling unwell, she became anxious: "You're still pregnant, and feeling unwell is no small matter. I'll go up and take a look. If it doesn't work, go to the hospital. Don't let a minor illness turn into a major one."
However, Lu Yingqian quickly grabbed Liu Ma and stopped trying to hide the truth from Lu Jinghuai.
"Auntie Liu, please don't go. I don't think my sister-in-law is feeling unwell, but she and my brother are having a quarrel."
Lu Yingqian briefly described what she had just seen upstairs.
Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief, but she also had the same thought as Lu Yingqian: "Madam is still pregnant, how can we quarrel with her at this time?"
Lu Jinghuai waited in the upstairs corridor until after nine o'clock, but had to leave because he had a meeting this morning.
But he also knew that if he stayed here to guard Lin Yan, Lin Yan probably wouldn't come out. This would be bad, as Lin Yan would be hungry later.
After thinking about it, Lu Jinghuai decided to go to the company first, but before leaving, he was still worried about Lin Yan, so he knocked on the door a few times and explained.
"Yan Yan, if you don't want to see me, I'll go to the company first. Calm down and don't starve yourself. When I come back in the evening, you can vent your anger on me. If you have any questions, I will answer them."
After Lu Jinghuai finished speaking, the room did not respond. Lu Jinghuai did not force it. He glanced at the door and planned to leave.
Before leaving, Lu Jinghuai went downstairs to find Lu Yingqian and said, "Your sister-in-law hasn't eaten yet. Please bring breakfast up and let her have some. She's pregnant and needs to eat. Besides, she's in a bad mood, so you can chat with her."
Lu Jinghuai knew that Lu Yingqian and Lin Yan got along well, and if Lu Yingqian brought breakfast up, Lin Yan would not turn her away.
However, when Lu Yingqian heard Lu Jinghuai's words, she snorted, "You knew your sister-in-law was pregnant, yet you still quarreled with him? That's too much."
Lu Jinghuai was silent for a long time, but he couldn't explain. He could only remind him again: "Call me immediately if there is anything at home."
