Hearing someone come downstairs, Lu Jin turned around happily, wanting to show her his and Ali's "masterpiece".
But the moment she saw the suitcase, her smile froze.
"Ruoxi, where are you going?"
Jian Ruoxi pursed her lips slightly and slowly spoke under Lu Jin's domineering gaze.
"Xiao Jin, I really am not suitable to continue living here."
Li Anran's sudden visit made her realize a fact she had been ignoring, giving her a rude awakening.
If we stay any longer, we might really become what Li Anran described.
Shameless.
She now has her own pride, and she is confident that she can play any challenging role well.
She has her own career. Ran Jie once said that advertisers now want her to be their spokesperson.
Not to mention, she also has a large number of fans who support her.
There's absolutely no need to stay here and be yelled at.
"No, you can't leave." Lu Jin snatched Jian Ruoxi's suitcase.
"You're staying here. Let's see who dares to kick you out!"
Lu Jin looked coldly at Li Anran in the corner, feeling that she was getting in his way even more.
Was Ali's lesson too lenient?
Just when Ruoxi and her older brother were finally making some progress, Li Anran interfered.
Jian Ruoxi felt grateful.
It seems that no matter what happens, Xiao Jin will always stand firmly on my side.
"Ruoxi, before you divorced my brother, you were the only sister-in-law I recognized. Even now that you and my brother are divorced, you are still my best friend in my heart."
"You can stay wherever you want. Even if you go to the Lu family's old house, no one can kick you out."
Lu Jin said very firmly.
She said this not only to Li Anran, but also to the servants in the villa.
She wanted everyone to know that Ruoxi had her protection.
After hearing Lu Jin's words, Jian Ruoxi's eyes reddened, and she was about to cry.
"You were moved by me so quickly?"
Lu Jin stepped forward and wiped Jian Ruoxi's eyes dry. She couldn't stand seeing girls cry in front of her.
"Don't cry. You're different from some people. Your tears are much more precious to us all."
The person making the suggestion is self-evident.
Li Anran raised her head with tears streaming down her face, her complexion flushed red from trying to suppress the pain.
Her gaze toward Lu Jin was filled with resentment and venom.
If Lu Jin didn't have the title of the eldest daughter of the Lu family, she would be nothing.
What is Lu Jin? If she also had the surname Lu, or was a young lady from a wealthy family, where would Lu Jin have a place?
Ali frowned slightly and plunged the thorn into Li Anran's body again.
"Ah!" This time no one covered her mouth, and Li Anran cried out in pain.
"Ali!" Jian Ruoxi called Ali's name, shook her head, and indicated that they could stop.
She knew that Ali was standing up for her.
But what truly saddened and disappointed her was not Li Anran.
Even if she screams in pain, it doesn't affect her at all.
Ali stopped what she was doing and looked at Jian Ruoxi with a worried expression.
Her eyes were calm and still, like a stagnant pool.
She had never seen Jian Ruoxi like this before.
"I'm fine, let her go."
The only injury Li Anran caused her was on her arm; she could find a doctor, apply some medicine, and it would heal.
She should leave too.
When Su Ziyu told her before that it wasn't suitable for her to live here, she had already been considering it and would wait until the lease expired.
I'll just leave on my own.
I've been hesitant all this time, simply because of that person.
"Ruoxi, do you still want to leave?"
Jian Ruoxi's indifferent and uncaring expression made her pause in surprise.
Jian Ruoxi nodded with a wry smile, "I was supposed to leave anyway, it's just that I left three months earlier than usual."
"After I leave, I'll ask if the old house has been rented out yet. If not, I'll stay there."
Lu Jin was getting anxious.
With his elder brother away, he has to do everything he can to keep Ruoxi with him.
She had a premonition that Ruoxi would leave like this.
If the older brother wants to win her back, it will be a thousand times harder than before.
Lu Jin took Jian Ruoxi's arm, his eyes darting around, and an idea suddenly came to him.
"Ruoxi, stay a few more days. I'm planning to hold a party here in a few days to promote my new drama. As the female lead, you'll have to do your part."
The servants around him gaped in surprise upon hearing the news.
Is the young lady going to hold a cocktail party here?
Will this be enough to keep Miss Jane here?
"This?" Jian Ruoxi was a little stunned.
She knew that Xiao Jin had been training Shi Tou in scriptwriting, and that Shi Tou was progressing so quickly.
The script was written so quickly?
Ali quietly moved behind Lu Jin and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Miss, I've been with you all day, and it seems like only two episodes of the script have been written."
Are you sure a show like this can find investment?
Lu Jin could certainly be uncertain.
But isn't this a case of acting rashly in a hurry?
Besides using work as an excuse, is there a better way to keep Ruoxi?
"The actors are not yet cast, and there is no script yet. We have to find one even if we can't find one."
Jian Ruoxi looked somewhat hesitant.
Lu Jin felt there was a chance, so he started playing the emotional card.
"Ruoxi, you know how much effort Shi Tou and I have put into this script during this period of time."
"If we can't even find investment, that would be terrible."
"What am I supposed to do as a director?"
As Lu Jin spoke, he actually started to feel aggrieved, his shoulders trembling as if he was about to cry.
Jian Ruoxi was moved and couldn't help but agree.
"Okay, I'll be there."
Consider this a favor to Xiaojin.
"Ah, that's right." Lu Jin quickly turned his worry into joy and winked at the maid next to him, "Don't just stand there, hurry up and help Miss Jian take her luggage back."
The servants were just waiting for Lu Jin to say those words.
The maid who had just packed Jian Ruoxi's things carried Jian Ruoxi's luggage upstairs.
They moved so fast, as if they were afraid Jian Ruoxi would change her mind.
Lu Jin nodded in satisfaction.
This maid is quite nice; I'll have to ask my brother to give her a raise sometime.
They are perceptive.
Just then, A-Jie brought the doctor over as well.
"Doctor, let's take a look at Ruoxi first."
Ah Jie glanced at Li Anran, who was squatting in the corner, and almost jumped out of his skin.
This is still the same imperious Li Anran from before.
How come he turned out like this after only a short time away?
What did she just go through?
A-Jie's gaze unconsciously drifted towards A-Li's direction.
"What are you looking at?" Ali said coldly.
"No, it's nothing."
Honestly, why is a woman so fierce?
"I'll go and take Li Anran back to the Lu family first."
Forget it, women are not to be trifled with; he'd better stay away.
