That was the only possibility on his mind.
But something felt off; he didn't recall any recent online rumors about Lu Shen and Li Anran breaking off their engagement.
"No, I just rented his house."
She got back together with Lu Shen? How could that be?
They are currently just a regular tenant and landlord.
Although she sees him every day now, she acts as if Lu Shen doesn't exist in her family.
"Ruoxi, is that really what you think?" Su Ziyu felt a pang of bitterness as he asked this question.
"Of course, Lu Shen said at the time that his villa had the best security system, and as long as I paid the rent, I didn't have to worry about paparazzi or anything like that causing trouble."
That was the reason she decided to move in.
She was immediately refuted by Su Ziyu.
"No, that's not what you really think."
"You've avoided the most fundamental answer."
Is it really necessary to move into your ex-husband's house just because it's safe?
Ruoxi herself hadn't even listened carefully to how far-fetched her words were.
The most fundamental answer?
What is it?
Seeing that Ruoxi remained silent, Su Ziyu patiently continued to ask.
"Yes, you're right, the security system in Lu Shen's house is definitely the best."
"But is his the only safe residence in the entire city?"
"Ruoxi, why did you move in here? Have you thought about your initial impulse?"
Jian Ruoxi couldn't answer Su Ziyu's questions at all.
Yes, besides the reason Lu Shen mentioned, what exactly was the reason she moved in?
"I······"
Seeing that she hadn't figured it out yet, Su Ziyu wasn't in a hurry.
Even if Ruoxi still has feelings for Lu Shen, it doesn't matter. He can take it slow. At least he believes that he is better than Lu Shen in that he has never hurt Ruoxi.
He believed that no matter how much Ruoxi wavered between Lu Shen and him, she would ultimately choose him.
It's okay if you can't figure it out right now.
"But Ruoxi, I hope you can move out of Lu Shen's house as soon as possible. It would be better for you."
After hanging up the phone, Jian Ruoxi sat alone in the lobby, lost in thought, going over all the times she had spent with Lu Shen over the past few days in her mind.
But a definitive answer was still not found.
Maybe Ziyu is right. I really shouldn't have moved in so impulsively.
"But I've already paid Lu Shen the rent."
She had paid tens of thousands of yuan upfront, and if she only stayed for a few days before moving out, she didn't think Lu Shen would be kind enough to return the rent.
Just as Lu Shen was about to step into the house, the head maid stopped him.
"Young Master, the Young Madam is in the hall right now, and she seems to be in a bad mood."
Bad mood?
Ran Jie reported that there are fewer and fewer negative comments about Ruoxi online now, as they have been mostly cleaned up by their people.
What is she worried about this time?
"Did she do anything today?"
The head maid carefully recalled Jian Ruoxi's itinerary for the day, "The young mistress stayed at home all day and didn't do anything special."
"It seems like she started feeling down after receiving a phone call."
"I heard the young mistress call him Su Ziyu."
It's him again? He's still up to no good.
It seems Su Ziyu has been quite free lately; it's time to have Ran Jie arrange more gigs for him.
Let's see if he still has the time to chat with Ruoxi about random things.
"You all stay outside, I'll go in and take a look."
In the hall, Jian Ruoxi lay lazily on the sofa, propping her head up with one hand, her brows furrowed so tightly they almost formed a "川" character, and her sighs could be heard from a distance.
"If you keep worrying, your child might be born with a bitter face."
Jian Ruoxi's face immediately fell.
You can talk about her, but you can't talk about her children.
“My child, that’s absolutely the cutest in the world, how could he possibly have a sour face? Don’t curse my child.”
She rolled her eyes at Lu Shen, her tone revealing her disdain.
"If you don't want your child to become ugly, then you should always keep a happy mood."
"Didn't the doctor warn you the same thing? Have you forgotten everything?"
With her disregard for her own health, how could he feel at ease letting her leave again?
"I was just saying..."
Jian Ruoxi swallowed her words again halfway through her sentence.
Her intuition told her that if she told Lu Shen about her plans to leave right now, he would probably explode on the spot.
Lu Shen leaned down and gazed into her eyes. "Just what?"
His eyes were as deep as when we first met, so captivating that one glance could easily draw you in.
Jian Ruoxi hurriedly looked away, her eyes fixed on the ground, and pushed Lu Shen away.
"No, nothing. I was just thinking about the video."
Lu Shen knew she was lying, but he was too lazy to call her out on it. Instead, he followed her lead and asked more questions.
"You mean the videos about you and the Jian family that were uploaded online? What did you find out?"
When it comes to work, Jian Ruoxi is like a completely different person.
He took out his computer, opened the video, and showed it to Lu Shen.
"Here, and here, are obvious signs of poor editing."
"I reckon it's because Han Mingyi was too eager for the video, which caused the paparazzi to hastily comply with her request."
So, what are your thoughts?
After enduring so many days of grievances, it seems this woman is about to unleash her ultimate move.
He was somewhat looking forward to seeing how Ruoxi would retaliate.
“These paparazzi are very shrewd; he definitely has unprocessed videos.”
"The chat history with Han Mingyi must have been backed up, just waiting to be resold."
She believed that Han Mingyi must also know about this, and had even tried to buy out the paparazzi's money.
But paparazzi will always leave themselves a way out.
A true buyout is impossible.
"What I need to do now is to find the paparazzi who filmed the video as soon as possible."
Lu Shen looked at her expectantly, waiting for the woman beside him to speak.
If she begs him, he will definitely find that paparazzi without hesitation.
"With so many paparazzi, it's quite difficult to find them."
Lu Shen nodded in agreement and even gave her a hint, "Yes, so you can't find it by yourself."
"Oh right, I can ask Ran Jie."
“He has many connections in the entertainment industry, so finding a paparazzi shouldn’t be difficult for him.”
With work to do, Jian Ruoxi had already forgotten her earlier worries.
He excitedly went to assign tasks to Ran Jie.
Lu Shen didn't even have time to grab the woman beside him.
"Was Ruoxi doing this on purpose? She's usually quite smart, so how come she didn't even notice this subtle hint today?"
The words "find me" were practically etched onto his forehead.
