Chapter 11 Chapter 11 Rain and Dew
Lu Xuan was completely drunk, and Wang Ran was too embarrassed to stay here any longer, so he left in a panic without even caring about Liao Liao.
Lu Xuan, who was leaning on his shoulder, was humming and groaning, and no one knew what he was saying. Worried that he would feel uncomfortable when he got on the bus, Qiao Wu asked the waiter for a glass of honey water first.
People in the circle who are familiar with Lu Xuan's personality know that he is the easiest to manipulate after he gets drunk. As long as they coax him, they will give him money. That's why so many people want to frame him.
But even though the person was drunk, no one dared to step forward, all because of the "assistant" beside Lu Xuan.
Because she had a "big dog" hanging on her shoulder, she leaned leisurely on the sofa, flipping through the tablet in her hand, and occasionally perfunctorily addressed the clingy Lu Xuan. Her every move was elegant and imposing, noble and difficult to approach, as if she was the protagonist here.
Some people wanted to move forward, but as soon as the other party gave them a light glance, they could not move forward immediately.
As if that person was someone they couldn't control or reach.
Qiao Wu didn't care how people around her looked at her. While waiting for the honey water, she continued to choose a suitable agent for Lu Xuan.
Liao Liao had been standing there, looking at the person on the sofa for a long time without any concealment, but unfortunately the other person didn't seem to care and didn't notice her again. However, she inexplicably had a strong delusion that she wanted to have a place in the other person's eyes and have a sense of existence.
"elder sister."
Qiao Wu nodded slightly: "Hmm?"
"Thank you." Liao Liao said softly.
Every time she was in trouble, it was this sister who helped her out, and she was very grateful.
"Um."
Liao Liao said tentatively: "I washed the clothes last time and sent them to the dry cleaners."
Qiao Wu had long forgotten about that dress. She was used to seeing people wearing all kinds of masks, so she could see the uneasiness in Liao Liao's eyes.
She smiled: "What?"
Liao Liao was dazzled by the smile on the lips of the person in front of her. She had just entered society and had never seen such a brilliant person. He was also the person she wanted to become.
Even though she had been rejected last time, she mustered up the courage and said, "Can I have your phone number? I'd like to treat you to a meal. I have no other motive, I just want to get to know you!"
Qiao Wu was a little surprised.
To be honest, she didn't have a deep impression of Liao Liao. After all, she had seen too many people who were better, prettier, and richer than Liao Liao. The so-called heroine didn't exist in her eyes.
But she always admires people with courage.
Only now did she truly care about the girl in front of her. She was indeed clean and spoke without beating around the bush.
In Qiao Wu's limited free life, she has no other close relationships except those of the Lu family, so if she meets someone she doesn't dislike, she doesn't mind developing a relationship with him.
She took out her phone: "Qiao Wu."
Liao Liao's eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly ran forward to add the contact information and sent her her name: "Qiao, Sister Qiao!"
Seeing her type "Sister Qiao Wu" on the screen, Qiao Wu's eyes curved and he smiled, "Don't use survivor bias on yourself. Not everyone will always show up when you need them. Only yourself is worthy of trust."
Liao Liao was no fool. She knew this was a warning to her, and nodded with a blushing face: "I will definitely be more careful next time."
Qiao Wu stopped there and didn't say anything more.
Seeing someone talking to Qiao Wu, some braver people also came over quietly, but no one dared to offer wine. If anyone smelled of alcohol, the unconscious Teacher Lu would be like someone equipped with a breathalyzer, and would kick you out with his eyes closed, and he would be extremely fierce.
Qiao Wu didn't stay here for too long. After Lu Xuan felt better, he took his people back home and asked them to bring Lu Xuan upstairs. He planned to listen to the servants' report on the situation at home today, and arrange the major and minor things to pay attention to the next day before returning to the villa.
As soon as she reached the corridor on the first floor, she felt like something was staring at her.
Naked.
When I turned my head, I was faced with a huge horse face.
Next came a pair of tight, long legs.
"Hey, you're back."
Lu Yingchi rode on a tall black horse against the light, his rebellious features adorned with a sinister smile.
Qiao Wu raised his hand to smooth the horse's mane and said helplessly: "Who told you to ride a horse in the garden?"
The Lu family's house covers a large area and has its own horse farm and naturally its own stables.
This Friesian horse was a birthday gift that Lu Yingchi asked for when he was five years old. Now it is thirteen years old and has grown tall and big, with shiny fur, and is very majestic and beautiful.
Lu Yingchi carefully moved the horse's head away: "Don't touch my princess!"
I don't know why he is so persistent in calling a stallion princess.
"Isn't that childish?" Qiao Wu pointed at the courtyard gate. "Take the princess back. Don't force me to do it myself."
The garden is taken care of by a dedicated gardener, and many of the flowers are very precious, mainly expensive.
"You care so much about me." Lu Yingchi rode his horse slowly around her and sneered, "Isn't it enough to care about Lu Xuan?"
As far as Qiao Wu knew, Lu Xuan had not been back for a long time and he had not even seen him today. How did he get into a conflict with this young master?
She wondered: "What happened to you, Lu Xuan?"
"Don't think I don't know. I went out for a drink and you poured wine all over me. He drank and you helped him back and gave him sobering soup." Lu Yingchi became more and more angry as she spoke. She leaned forward slightly, wishing the princess would kick her. "You still want to go out with him. What do you think of me?"
Qiao Wu was stunned for a moment.
Seeing her reaction, Lu Yingchi knew that he had guessed right. Since childhood, Lu Xuan had bullied him because he was young and snatched Qiao Wu from him, and he never took him with him to do homework.
And what you said about being the most loyal to him, that's all bullshit!
No wonder they were so cruel to him, using both knives and ghosts.
He saw it all, as she was so attentive to Lu Xuan's affairs!
She knew clearly that the person he hated the most was Lu Xuan.
Lu Yingchi wanted the princess to step over her face, but she finally held back and said coldly, "Qiao Wu, don't even think about controlling me from now on! If I listen to you again, I'll be a dog!"
Tomorrow he would dismantle the morning bell, and every time he repaired it, he would dismantle it! He would also hide the key at the door.
Ahhhhhhhh!
He had secretly told her where he hid the key before!
This unfaithful woman will be struck by lightning!
Qiao Wu was annoyed by his constant nagging of "I". The two brothers had a good understanding of each other and were both arguing about the so-called first priority.
She sighed: "Stop using bad language and see what Lu Ning has learned from you."
"Oh, I forgot, there is also a Lu Ning."
Damn, I’m even more angry!
Qiao Wu laughed: "I didn't take you for granted."
"Alright, I won't even act anymore." Lu Yingchi gritted his teeth, "You still don't take me seriously."
"…I mean, you're family."
The princess was so angry that Lu Yingchi was deformed that he pulled his mane so hard that his hair was almost pulled off. "I wonder how many people are there in your family, Housekeeper Qiao?"
Noticing the princess's pain and restlessness, Lu Yingchi retracted his grip, raised his chin and said arrogantly, "I don't care anyway, so don't take yourself too seriously. I don't care who you are close to. I just don't like being deceived."
"I didn't lie to you." Qiao Wu handed him a box. "Look, this is a gift for you."
Lu Yingchi stopped moving and looked down: "I don't like it."
"Okay." Qiao Wu was not used to his stubbornness and withdrew his hand. "Then I'll give it to Lu Xuan."
"Come back!" Lu Yingchi immediately jumped off the horse and snatched the box from her hand, "What's given to me is mine! I won't give it to him even if I lose it!"
Qiao Wu: "You wasteful thing, be gentle!"
It couldn't be light, for fear that this thing would fall into Lu Xuan's hands, Lu Yingchi quickly opened it, and his eyes froze when he saw what was inside.
Inside the box is a well-packaged limited edition diamond-studded figurine.
How could this thing be given to Lu Xuan? That bastard Lu Xuan doesn’t know the value of things!
He suddenly turned his head and stared at Qiao Wu with deep eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.
The latter leaned against the garden pillar with a smile: "Okay, throw it away."
“…”
Lu Yingchi carefully closed the box and said, "If you tell me, I'll find a place to throw it away."
He turned around holding the box and led the horse: "Princess, let's go!"
They had only taken a few steps when a deafening alarm suddenly sounded above their heads. The security guards stationed in every corner immediately rushed towards the main house.
Qiao Wu stood up instantly. The princess, who was a few steps away from her, was frightened by the sound of the alarm and broke away from Lu Yingchi and raised her front hoof.
Lu Yingchi reacted quickly, grabbed the reins and pulled forward, but his body was thrown ninety degrees.
He was about to turn his horse, but because he had something in his hand, he was a little slow and a shadow suddenly flashed before his eyes.
Qiao Wu jumped onto the horse neatly, pulled the reins in his hand, leaned forward and pressed tightly against the princess, pulling her back from the out-of-control direction, making small circles little by little.
Just then, the alarm suddenly stopped.
After the princess calmed down, Qiao Wu lowered his head. His breathing was a little heavy, and even his voice was muffled: "Are you okay?"
When their positions were reversed, Lu Yingchi realized how he had been looking down at her.
It carries a terrifying sense of superiority and oppression.
"Hmm." He blinked dully and turned his eyes away: "Go and have a look."
Qiao Wu called a security guard to look after the princess, and hurried into the main house with Lu Yingchi.
This kind of situation has never happened in the Lu residence for so many years. At this time, the lights in the house were brightly on, and many security guards gathered downstairs. Lu Ning was also frightened awake and sat on the sofa holding the baby in a daze, obviously not yet reacting.
After Qiao Wu and Lu Yingchi arrived, the security captain just got off the elevator. He squeezed out of the crowd with a complicated expression: "Butler Qiao, Fourth Young Master, you've arrived just in time!"
"What's going on?" Qiao Wu asked.
"That..." The security captain hesitated, looking up and down, "The Third Young Master...went into the master's study."
Qiao Wu: “?”
Lu Yingchi: “???”
"The Third Young Master won't let anyone touch him," the security captain stammered. "There are many valuables in the study, and we're worried he might break something, so we don't dare act rashly. So we sent some people down first. This is a special situation, and I haven't informed the master yet. How about you two go up and take a look first?"
Qiao Wu suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. She quickly got on the elevator and pressed the button for Lu Jiang's floor.
Lu Yingchi and Lu Ning squeezed in at the last moment, with strange lights in their eyes.
Ha, Lu Xuan is in trouble.
Anyone who misses this excitement is an idiot!
"I told you he's not a good person." Lu Yingchi took the opportunity to flatter him. "He gets carried away after drinking a little bit of alcohol. He's not steady at all."
Unlike him, he always drinks quietly by himself.
Qiao Wu could hear his gloating: "You are steady. A group of nameless people can drink millions of dollars worth of your wine in one night."
Lu Yingchi's face suddenly fell: "Are you being mean to me because of him? Qiao Wu, get it clear, I'm not the one in trouble now!"
At this point, he suddenly remembered something and called the servant downstairs: "Go to the wine cellar and get a bottle of wine."
After a pause, he added, "Take the cheapest one."
After hanging up the phone, he locked his gaze with Qiao Wu and said sinisterly, "You'd better treat everyone equally, or I'll force him to drink myself."
Qiao Wu: "Childish."
The top floor is all Lu Jiang's rooms. The study is independent and can be seen by turning a corner.
When they rushed over, the security guards were surrounding Lu Xuan and were helpless.
Seeing Qiao Wu and Lu Yingchi coming, they made way for them, revealing Lu Xuan who was sitting on the carpet and still "working hard" on the safe.
Qiao Wu's heart skipped a beat: "Lu Xuan."
Lu Xuan looked up at the voice. He hadn't changed his clothes yet. His dark blue shirt was half-undone and his hair was messy. He made a hushing gesture with a hazy look in his eyes. "I haven't remembered the old man's password yet."
“…”
really.
Lu Yingchi didn't know what was going on. He rushed forward, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up, angrily saying, "You unfilial son! Why did you open this old man's safe?"
As he walked over, he didn't forget to put the gift box in his hand farther away.
Lu Xuan narrowed his eyes, probably trying to figure out who was in front of him.
After discovering it was Lu Yingchi, he tutted softly, snapped his hand open, frowned and asked, "How much did you get?"
"What?"
"How much did you get in the old man's will?"
will?
Lu Yingchi was bewildered: "Did he make a will?"
Such a big thing and not informing him?!
No wonder Lu Ning was brought there alone this morning!
Lu Yingchi took a deep breath, walked around to Lu Xuan and squatted down skillfully: "How many passwords have you tried? Did you try it for the old man's birthday? What about Mom's birthday?"
"You didn't get any either?" Lu Xuan was shocked.
"How the hell would I know!"
Lu Ning was holding a recording phone in her hand. She had originally planned to record the audio of Lu Xuan getting into trouble to replace her saying "thank you" to Chen Ling, but she didn't expect to record this.
She looked up at Qiao Wu in confusion: "I just took a nap. Did something terrible happen outside?"
Qiao Wu pinched her mouth: "Okay, stop talking."
If the old man were here, he would probably be so angry that he would pass out.
She looked at the two pigs struggling in front of the safe with their buttocks sticking up. She kicked one of them from behind and shouted coldly, "Let go of your claws!"
Both of them froze in unison.
"I'll give you one minute to put this place back to normal." She pressed their shoulders and said word by word, "Then go downstairs."
Three minutes later, Lu Yingchi and Lu Xuan sat on the sofa, Qiao Wu stood in front of them with his arms folded, and Lu Ning sat at the other end, secretly holding up her mobile phone to record the video, for fear of missing such a wonderful scene.
The servant had already brought some sobering medicine for Lu Xuan to take, and Lu Yingchi also became much more sober, lowering his head with a guilty look on his face.
Qiao Wu asked everyone else to disperse, so as to prevent the two young masters from being embarrassed when they woke up.
"He's drunk, are you drunk too?" She glanced at Lu Yingchi, "Are you fooling around together?"
Lu Yingchi was also a little excited, and at this moment he was not confident enough and whispered: "How would I know..."
I've never seen anyone open a safe when drunk, such a cruel hobby.
Qiao Wu: "Go apologize to your father tomorrow."
Lu Yingchi immediately shook his head: "No!"
"Lu Yingchi." Qiao Wu lowered his eyelashes, his eyes indifferent. "Have you grown up without learning what responsibility is? You only care about momentary pleasure? Forget whether the old man has made a will. Even if he did, with your current attitude, even if he didn't leave you a share, what qualifications do you have to question it?"
Lu Yingchi's back stiffened.
"You're so brazen about breaking into the safe and not caring about his feelings. What are you relying on?"
The whole hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and Lu Ning quietly put down her phone.
Lu Yingchi remained silent for a long time because he had never seriously thought about this issue.
Qiao Wu knew that he had been misled by "interested people" for too long in the past, and no one had guided him, so he slowed down his tone and asked, "Are you obedient now?"
Lu Yingchi moved his fingertips slightly.
"Um."
In the serious atmosphere, there was only one person who didn't fit in.
Lu Xuan didn't understand the atmosphere and just wondered why Xiao Wu had said so much but it wasn't his turn yet.
He took the initiative to seize the opportunity, took out his cell phone and dialed a number he hadn't made in several years. He thought to himself: Everyone can apologize, just wait, I'm going to call the old man now!
In the middle of the night, Lu Jiang was woken up from his dream. Seeing that the caller was Lu Xuan, he hung up the phone without hesitation and touched his heart: "I had a nightmare."
After a while, the phone rang again. He finally came to his senses and answered it.
Before he could say anything, Lu Xuan on the other end of the phone said proudly, "Old man, I just broke into your safe! I'm sorry!"
Lu Jiang: “…”
Worse than a nightmare!!!
Qiao Wu, who was caught off guard, said: "..."
