"Mother, I don't think she wants to see me right now."
Upon hearing his voice, Su Ping's body trembled, and she gradually felt her heart race and her breath become short.
He opened his mouth as if to speak, but no sound came out. He stumbled back two steps and barely managed to steady himself by holding onto the wall behind him.
When Madam Lu heard him make excuses, her face immediately darkened, and her voice became accusatory.
"Miss Su just messaged me asking where you went. You should go back now and not keep her waiting."
Su Ping felt a jumble of thoughts, a feeling he hadn't experienced since meeting the man who looked exactly like him last time.
She heard the man in front of her immediately become depressed, and after giving a soft "hmm," he hung up the phone.
Lu Zhiyan put his phone in his pocket, and before leaving, as if he remembered something, he turned his gaze back to Su Ping's face.
"you……"
He suddenly didn't know what to call her, especially after seeing her tearful eyes. He found his heart clenching and aching.
Why? He had never seen her before, and this was their first meeting.
Why would he have such complicated feelings for a stranger?
Looking into her eyes, he always felt he wanted to say something.
But in the end, he only said one sentence: "If you don't want him to cause you trouble, don't tell anyone what you saw in the bathroom just now."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to go back to the private room.
Su Ping watched his retreating figure and subconsciously reached out to grab his arm.
But my hands felt like they were filled with lead, and I couldn't lift them no matter what I did.
Finally, I watched his figure gradually disappear from my sight.
After another sharp pain in her heart, Su Ping's vision went black, and she slowly slid to the ground against the wall behind her.
Lu Zhiyan had just stepped into the private room when he suddenly stopped.
He clutched his chest, feeling an emptiness inside.
Before he could think of anything, the woman sitting there, who was adjusting her collar, saw him and suddenly frantically pulled some hair to her chest, as if trying to cover something.
"You, you've come?"
The woman thought of what Lu Zhiyan had said to her, and tried her best to put on a flawless expression, smiling at him in a friendly manner.
Even she herself didn't realize that her voice had a naturally tingling quality, her eyes seemed to be filled with longing, and even her cheeks were flushed pink.
Thinking of the sight of her and her brother kissing outside the restroom, Lu Zhiyan's fingers, hanging by his side, slowly clenched into fists.
He didn't understand why, if his elder brother liked this Miss Su, he would still arrange a marriage between him and her.
Even if they knew each other before, according to seniority, she is about to become his sister-in-law, yet he still maintains this kind of relationship with her behind her back.
Was his older brother simply seeking thrills, or was he just playing the fool?
The woman on the other side saw him standing at the door, and the smile on her face made her feel a little guilty.
She probably didn't reveal anything she shouldn't have seen, right?
Thinking of this, she quickly looked down at herself. The zipper of her skirt was already zipped up, so there shouldn't be anything wrong.
But why is he looking at me like that?
At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Lu Zhiyan had said: his younger brother had been in poor health since childhood and was raised in a temple, so he was probably somewhat withdrawn and didn't like to communicate with others.
"Zhiyan, may I call you that?"
The woman was sitting there, trying to invite Lu Zhiyan to sit down.
Her face held an expectant expression and a faint smile, as if she were truly meeting him as her fiancé.
Lu Zhiyan nodded and walked over there without making a sound.
The woman stared at his face, somewhat lost in thought.
She knew he was innocent, but in order to be with Zhiyan, she had no choice but to apologize to him first.
The waiter was very perceptive and pulled out a chair for Lu Zhiyan so he could sit down.
The woman looked at Lu Zhiyan's face, her eyes gradually becoming infatuated.
They look so alike, no wonder they're twins.
Looking at him so closely, it felt like I was right next to Zhiyan.
Thinking of the sweet moments they had just shared, the woman's face showed a slightly shy expression.
Suddenly, a strange sensation made her shiver involuntarily, and her back straightened instinctively.
Hearing the noise, Lu Zhiyan and the waiter looked at her with some confusion.
But then they saw that the woman who had just been resting her hand on the table was now clutching her stomach.
His expression was also somewhat strange, as if he was enduring some kind of pain.
"Guest, are you feeling unwell? Is the air conditioning too cold?"
Upon seeing this, the waiter greeted him and asked, his tone inevitably showing some concern.
But the woman just shook her head slightly, biting her lower lip as she lay on the table, her body trembling.
Is it that uncomfortable?
Lu Zhiyan was somewhat surprised. Did the two of them get hurt because they didn't know how to restrain themselves in the toilet?
The next second, he heard her groan.
The voice was very soft, as if someone was trying their best to suppress it, but he still heard it.
"If you're really feeling unwell, why don't you go to the hospital to get it checked out?"
But the woman didn't respond to him, or rather, she didn't have the extra energy to reply.
Just then, the woman's phone, which was on the table, chimed a few times.
Lu Zhiyan's gaze fell on her lit-up phone screen.
He recognized the profile picture of the person who sent her the message; it was Lu Zhiyan.
Before he could take a second look, the woman, like a frightened bird, disregarded her physical discomfort and picked up her phone.
