Lu Zhiyuan and I met on a blind date after Lan's parents passed away.
After getting to know each other better, I gradually developed feelings for him and that's how we got married.
If that person is really Lu Zhiyuan, then all this is too terrifying.
That means Lu Zhiyuan had already involved me in his scheme a long time ago, and the blind date was planned by him from the very beginning.
I found it hard to accept for a moment, and my mind was full of random thoughts.
Seeing that I was feeling a bit emotional, Lan Feng comforted me, "Don't overthink it. Maybe this is all just a coincidence. That person only said the other person's surname is Lu, and we don't know the other person's name. Maybe it just happens that we have the same surname. Maybe it really is an old friend of your parents."
I nodded thoughtfully. I had never heard Lan's father and mother mention that they had a young friend named Lu.
Lan Feng hadn't heard of it either, but she said cautiously, "I'll find time to ask my parents' friends to see if anyone knows anything. Friends are interconnected, so someone should know this man named Lu."
Compared to Lu Zhiyuan, I would rather believe that all this is just a coincidence.
It was getting late, Fang Guoxu and Lan Xiaoyu cleaned up the kitchen and came out, and I also stood up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Lan Feng repeatedly told me to take good care of myself. This concern from family made me think of Tang Tianxiang.
Although he is my biological father, he doesn't care about me as much as Lan Feng.
I went downstairs and left. When I passed by the neighborhood where I used to live, I subconsciously looked inside, but was stopped by the security guard at the door.
"Are you Mrs. Lu?"
I was stunned for a moment, and the security guard had already greeted me warmly: "Mrs. Lu, are you on a business trip? I haven't seen you in a long time."
I smiled awkwardly. I couldn't tell everyone that I was divorced, right?
I was just about to respond vaguely and leave, but before I could say anything, I saw the security guard looking behind me in surprise.
"Mr. Lu!"
I froze for a moment, and the security guard beside me said with a smile, "Mr. Lu is here to pick you up!"
I turned around and saw Lu Zhiyuan standing on the side of the road. He was obviously stunned when he saw me, then strode towards me.
The security guard left with a smile on his face, and at this time Lu Zhiyuan was already standing in front of me.
I looked at him, feeling inexplicably guilty, and subconsciously explained, "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to come here. I just passed by here on my way to celebrate my sister's birthday."
Lu Zhiyuan did not doubt what I said and nodded in understanding.
He asked me softly, "How have you been lately?"
"Yeah." I lowered my eyes and responded lightly.
Lu Zhiyuan asked again, "What about Xiaoyu? She resigned from Xiguang Technology because of our divorce. It's been quite difficult for her to find a job outside. Do you want me to help arrange one for her?"
"No thanks." I refused him, but then I thought about how he cared about Lan Xiaoyu, so I didn't want to be too blunt and explained, "My sister and I both think Xiaoyu should focus on her studies, so we don't plan to let her continue working part-time."
"Well, that's fine." Lu Zhiyuan smiled helplessly, and a brief silence fell between us.
I whispered, "I'm going back first."
I was about to leave when he suddenly grabbed my wrist, preventing me from moving forward.
I raised my eyes unhappily and met his fiery gaze.
He looked forbearing and asked me in a low voice, "Xiao Shan, do we have to be as distant as strangers?"
