"I'll go out and get a glass of water." An Xinghe hurriedly left the room.
Lu Wanying instantly became annoyed. Why did she have to keep harping on whether he smoked or not? Now, not only did she lose her first kiss, but it was so embarrassing.
She ruffled her hair irritably.
The phone on the table vibrated. She picked it up and looked at it, her eyes flashing with anger.
The text message read: "I heard that Lan You was beaten and admitted to the hospital. If you want to know the inside story, come to my house at six o'clock."
Could it be that Chu Xinrou knows something?
This might have been done by Chu Xinrou. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
She looked at the time and it was already half past four. It would take an hour, so she had to go out at least at five o'clock.
But usually at five o'clock, he would prepare dinner, and after dinner he would go to Monroe's house to tutor her.
So, she had to send An Xinghe away in advance.
He drank water for a long time but didn't come in, so she took the initiative to go out and said carefully, "Xinghe, I heard that the child you tutor is about to take the midterm exam. Otherwise, you should go early today and tomorrow."
"Monroe has almost finished reviewing math, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Besides, I haven't eaten yet." An Xinghe retorted.
Lu Wanying frowned. "What do you want to eat? I'll give you money and you can eat downstairs. How about ending it early today?"
"It will be over in half an hour, is it that serious?" An Xinghe looked at her in confusion.
"I...can't concentrate on studying anyway. I want to go see Lan You while it's still early. After all, I only stayed for a few minutes when I went to see him at noon." Lu Wanying lied, her eyes wandering around, not daring to look at him.
An Xinghe always felt that there was something strange about her, but he couldn't put his finger on it. Although he disliked her association with Lan You, they had quarreled several times, so he didn't want to interfere too much with her making friends, so as not to upset her.
"No, I'm going downstairs to buy something to eat. I'll be leaving first. Please be careful on your way back and forth."
Lu Wanying nodded obediently, and An Xinghe left quickly.
Lu Wanying packed up in an instant and planned to go straight to the Chu family villa.
An Xinghe first went to the bus stop at the corner and subconsciously searched for the bus from her home to the Municipal Hospital. There was a direct bus here, and the two of them could take the same bus, but he needed to transfer.
A bus drove past him, but he ignored it. Seeing that she was late, he turned on her location and found that she was at the bus stop outside her house two minutes ago, and there was no location information after that.
She turned off the location.
An Xinghe's face suddenly became tense.
If she really went to see Lan You, there would be no need to turn off the location, but all her actions showed that she was lying to him.
There was a flicker of anger in his eyes.
He quickly ran towards the bus stop outside her house and saw her figure flash by.
Route 763, a bus heading to the suburbs, will pass through the villa area on the way.
Is she going to look for Chu Xinrou?
He guessed her thoughts instantly, his eyes furious and worried.
Why is she so impulsive when she meets Chu Xinrou?
He hailed a taxi and told the driver to go to the Chu family villa.
She got off the bus and came to the gate of the Chu family based on her memory.
Chu Xinrou was standing in front of the gate waiting for her.
"Lu Wanying, you and Lan You are really good friends. You dare to come here alone? Aren't you afraid that what happened here two years ago will happen to you again?" Chu Xinrou laughed.
Lu Wanying snorted coldly, "You Chu family are really shameless."
"You can only talk big. What can you do to our Chu family?" Chu Xinrou said arrogantly.
Lu Wanying clenched her fists and stared at her with jealous eyes, "Lan You was beaten, was this you who did it?"
The anger erupted like a volcano, full of murderous intent.
"Even if I did it, what can you do to me? Lu Wanying, you should consider your own abilities. Two years ago, for the sake of your good friend and the Chu family, you foolishly told us your sales channels and the location of your warehouse. We, the Chu family, set fire to your warehouse, making it impossible for you to ship goods to customers within the agreed timeframe. You paid a large sum of liquidated damages, and then we cut off your sales channels, causing your Lu family to suffer a heavy blow. Competitors flocked in, and soon your capital chain was broken, causing the once prosperous Lu family to end up in bankruptcy."
"Lu Wanying, you are as stupid as a pig, and you still blame our Chu family. In the business world, all means must be used, and the winner is king."
Every word Chu Xinrou said was like a knife stabbing into her heart. Her eyes were red and filled with hatred. She gritted her teeth and said, "I was stupid and trusted the wrong person."
Two years ago, the Chu family was not that powerful. When the Chu family pretended to be on the verge of going bankrupt, she wanted to help them because of the Chu family's care for her and Chu Xinrou's friendship.
The result was a story of a farmer and a snake.
She is stupid.
"So it's your Lu family who deserves it. Our Chu family has developed to where it is today thanks to our Chu family. With the Chu family as my backing, how can you and Lan You be my opponents? I can do whatever I want to you. Actually, it's your credit that Lan You got beaten this time." Chu Xinrou patted her shoulder and said in a coercive tone in her ear.
Although she didn't say it directly, Lu Wanying guessed what she meant and said through gritted teeth, "So, Lan You's beating this time is really related to you."
She puffed out her cheeks, clenched her fists, and tried her best to restrain the urge to hit someone.
No matter how shameless Chu Xinrou was, she couldn't do anything.
Can't do anything...
Chu Xinrou caught a glimpse of her suppressing herself and frowned. How could this reckless Lu Wanying not take action?
She used Lan You's incident to lure her here, just to make her take action. The surveillance camera on the gate would record everything. She wanted to avenge Lu Wanying for kidnapping her.
"Lu Wanying, you're a coward. Besides insulting me verbally, what else can you do to me? Lu Wanying, you're useless. You'll only drag down the people around you."
Chu Xinrou continued to stimulate her.
The suppressed emotions in Lu Wanying's eyes collapsed instantly. She let go of her hand and slapped Chu Xinrou in the face.
Before she could touch her, a pair of hands suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist. Lu Wanying panicked, "Xingxing...He, why are you...here?"
Would he misunderstand that she was deliberately making things difficult for Chu Xinrou?
An Xinghe looked at her with a stern gaze and said in a heavy voice, "I also want to ask you, didn't you go to the hospital to see Lan You? Why are you here?"
He is angry.
"I..." Lu Wanying lowered her head in shame.
