Post Chapter 44
Before Liu Wei'an arrived, she hadn't expected Lu Yanhe to be so difficult to deal with.
At first, she simply followed the usual procedure, expressing her concern and care for Chen Siqi as Chen Siqi's mother in front of everyone.
After Chen Siqi was injured, she came to the school to thank Lu Yanhe in front of all the students.
However, Lu Yanhe rejected her from the very beginning with a neither soft nor hard attitude, which drained all her strength and made Liu Wei'an feel a sense of crisis as if facing a formidable enemy.
The cafeteria was huge, and usually bustling with activity at this time. But now it was much quieter than usual. The noise in the cafeteria, which held hundreds of people, gradually subsided, and finally, everyone's eyes were focused on them.
Liu Wei'an gave Lu Yanhe a careful look.
The latter was indeed a handsome young man, with a calm expression and firm eyes, more composed than many boys she had ever seen.
Composure is the rarest quality in boys of this age.
Liu Wei'an couldn't help but ponder Lu Yanhe's true intentions.
Are he and Chen Siqi friends?
Liu Wei'an didn't believe it at all. Her concern for Chen Siqi might be feigned, but she never stopped paying attention to her. She followed Chen Siqi's every move at school, who she was with, and what she did. Before Lu Yanhe appeared at the birthday party, Chen Siqi and Lu Yanhe had basically had no contact.
However, today's events are reminding her that some things seem to be gradually slipping out of her control.

Liu Wei'an eventually left.
Lu Yanhe clearly had no intention of speaking to her properly, so she wouldn't keep pestering him until he said something even more disgusting.
Liu Wei'an has always valued her image the most.
"Okay, then I'll have Siqi thank you properly later." Liu Wei'an left.
In any case, she showed up today, said what needed to be said, and adopted the posture she needed to adopt; her goal has been achieved.
After everyone left, Chen Qin and Lin Yu, who had already prepared the food, sat down opposite him.
"Why did she suddenly come to deliver something to you?" Chen Qin asked. "What did you do to help Chen Siqi?"
"It's nothing. Chen Siqi injured her leg a few days ago, and I happened to run into her, so I went to buy her some medicine." Lu Yanhe said bluntly, "Who knew her stepmother would suddenly appear and thank me so profusely? It's so fake."
Lin Yu said, "We just met not long ago, but you acted like you didn't know me just now. How hypocritical."
Chen Qin said, "Maybe she came to warn you not to have any inappropriate thoughts about Chen Siqi. Isn't this kind of plot often seen in TV dramas? The swan's mother goes to warn the ugly duckling not to try to climb up to their swan."
Lin Yu: "...Chen Qin, what are you talking about? If the mother of the swan went to warn the ugly duckling not to try to climb up to their swan, Hans Christian Andersen would jump out of his coffin and beat you up."
Lu Yanhe smiled.
"She probably wishes Chen Siqi would marry an ugly duckling."
"Why?" Chen Qin asked, puzzled.
"Because in the eyes of the white swan, a white swan that marries an ugly duckling is no longer a real white swan."
Lin Yu: "Chen Siqi's situation seems to be even worse than the last time I saw it."
Lu Yanhe thought to himself, Chen Siqi even had to buy answers from Xu Zijun to ensure she wouldn't fail her exams. How could her family environment, which put so much pressure on her, not be terrible?
After lunch, Lu Yanhe had just returned to the classroom when his phone suddenly vibrated.
Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao appears.
Chen Siqi sent her a message: Liu Wei'an came to see you?
Lu Yanhe: You're quite well-informed.
Chen Siqi: My class group chat is about to explode.
Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "He's already gone."
Chen Siqi: I never expected that she would do such a thing while I was not at school.
Lu Yanhe: It's a good thing you weren't at school, otherwise she could have put on another show.
Chen Siqi: Do you understand now why I hate her so much?
Lu Yanhe: I express my heartfelt sympathy for you.
Chen Siqi: Get lost.
Lu Yanhe laughed again.
He could easily imagine Chen Siqi's annoyed expression as she said "Get out."
Chen Siqi then asked: "Did I cause you any trouble?"
Lu Yanhe: What trouble could there be? It's just that your stepmother thanked me in front of hundreds of classmates, and everyone looked at me with expressions that said, "There must be something between you and me."
Chen Siqi: ...
Lu Yanhe: Just kidding. There was no such thing as the last sentence. How's your injury? Is it better?
Chen Siqi: It's almost over. I'll be at school this afternoon. I'm so angry. She had to pull this stunt before I even got to school.
Lu Yanhe: Was it intentional?
Chen Siqi: Of course it was intentional.
"Hey, Lu Yanhe, I heard your mother-in-law came to see you at noon?" Li Pengfei's loud voice arrived even earlier than the rest of the group.
Lu Yanhe turned around speechlessly, only to see Li Pengfei walking in through the back door with a mocking smile and an expression of watching a show.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Everyone else is saying the same thing,” Li Pengfei said.
"You're sick." Lu Yanhe gave him the middle finger.
"Hey, aren't you and Chen Siqi secretly dating?" Li Pengfei asked.
"Who is spreading rumors?"
Li Pengfei: "People on the school forum are already talking about it, saying that you went to Chen Siqi's birthday party again, and that you were the first to appear by Chen Siqi's side when she was injured. Some people even saw you talking to her at school, just the two of you. It makes people think all sorts of things."
Lu Yanhe hadn't expected things to be so much more serious than he'd imagined.
Well.
Such a rumor shouldn't cause a stir outside of the school, right?
At this moment, Lu Yanhe was incredibly grateful that he was a has-been idol.
He took out his phone and logged onto the school forum. Sure enough, a bunch of new posts were discussing his relationship with Chen Siqi.
The latest post also includes a candid photo of him and Liu Wei'an.
Title: The gift the mother-in-law gave to her son-in-law: a white Dior shirt.
Lu Yanhe felt a lump in his throat and didn't know what to say.
"Really not?" Li Pengfei walked over and asked.
Lu Yanhe was furious and waved his hand irritably: "That's bullshit."
"Heh, why did Chen Siqi's mom come to the school to see you? I thought she just came to see what her future son-in-law looks like." Li Pengfei said innocently.
"Get lost." Lu Yanhe impatiently shooed Li Pengfei away.
Li Pengfei remained completely still.
"Don't be angry. Since that's not the case, why don't you think of a way to clarify things?" he said.
Lu Yanhe: "I want to, but how can I clarify this? Go to every classroom door and say that Chen Siqi and I are not dating?"
Li Pengfei: "If others are posting, you should post too. Or I can post one for you."
He picked up his phone as he spoke.
