Chapter 449 The Problematic Baby VS The Arrogant Guy Who Loves to Ask Questions 1
In July, the sun blazes fiercely, like a furnace that can melt a person.
The weather was scorching hot, and Lu Jingxun felt increasingly restless.
"How much longer until we get there?" He raised his handsome eyebrows, a hint of displeasure in his expression, his sharply defined face etched with impatience. "That old man just can't stand to see me doing well. He'll torment me to death so he can go and adopt another son..."
His words were filled with dissatisfaction towards Lu Xingbang.
Sitting in the front row, Secretary Wang Gaojun could only carefully reassure him, "We're almost there."
Lin City is located in a remote area. There is no air or rail connection, so the only way to get there is by car.
Lu Xingbang gave the order that the person must be delivered safely.
To prevent Lu Jingxun from running away halfway, they drove all the way here, keeping a close eye on him.
The journey was indeed difficult.
Let alone Lu Jingxun, who had been pampered since childhood, even he found it hard to stand.
"Tsk."
Lu Jingxun looked out the window and remained silent.
His eyes were slightly narrowed, and beneath his high, straight nose, his thin lips were pressed into a tight line, his face full of resistance and irritation.
Everything around him now made him extremely unhappy.
The old man was determined to lock him up this time. Not even a mosquito could fly out along the way. It seemed that he would have to find a way when they got there.
In short, it's impossible for him to stay here.
Being locked up here is no different from taking his life.
He was planning his escape.
An hour later, the vehicle began to drive into the countryside of Lincheng.
The wind blowing on my face gradually carried a hint of coolness.
Large, fluffy white clouds drifted across the azure sky, and before us stretched an endless expanse of fields. Various paths led along the roadside to the farmland, and tall foxtail grasses grew on both sides.
The wind carries a faint fragrance of flowers, mixed with the scent of earth, simple yet refreshing.
Wang Gaojun couldn't help but glance outside a few times.
This is indeed a beautiful place with clear waters and lush mountains, giving people a pleasant and comfortable feeling, which is quite rare.
But Lu Jingxun saw things differently.
It was both poor and remote.
Even ghosts wouldn't want to come to the countryside.
He might die here and no one would even know.
Lu Xingbang is truly heartless. Who is his biological son?
The dissatisfaction in my heart grew stronger.
Not long after, the black luxury sedan arrived at its destination smoothly.
Before us, a three-story villa stands quietly.
The exterior walls are very new; they look like they were just painted white recently, probably no more than a week ago.
Surrounding the Western-style building is a very spacious courtyard, enclosed by a low wall.
Many flowers and plants are planted under the wall.
In the corner of the yard, there is a small fish pond where several goldfish swim.
Although the Lu family had never lived in this countryside before, they had always arranged for people to clean and look after it, so the environment was barely acceptable.
"Young Master, please stay here and rest assured these days. We will come to pick you up after Mr. Lu has settled everything. Please call me anytime if you need anything."
Wang Gaojun then called over the nannies and housekeepers who had come with them and explained various precautions to them in detail.
Lu Jingxun ignored it, looking nonchalant, and without asking for help, walked straight towards the house with his cane.
He casually glanced at the interior decorations as he slowly entered the elevator and went up to the second floor.
Once they reached the living room on the second floor, he threw away his crutches and promptly lay down on the sofa.
The phone rang at that moment.
Upon seeing the incoming call, Lu Jingxun answered it immediately.
Wan Yanbo's usual teasing voice came through the receiver: "Brother Xun, how's it going? Have we arrived?"
"Stop talking nonsense, what is it?" Lu Jingxun had no mood to chat with him.
"Hehe, it's nothing. I was just worried that you'd be bored in that unfamiliar place, so I came to check on you." Wan Yanbo chuckled twice, then changed the subject, his voice unconsciously lowering, revealing a hint of caution, "Brother Xun, you just focus on recovering there. Leave everything else to us. Don't worry. That brat will get what's coming to him."
Lu Jingxun was silent for a moment, a repulsive face flashing through his mind. His expression darkened, and he replied, "Yeah, be careful, don't let anyone find a handle against you."
After saying that, he hung up the phone before Wan Yanbo could respond and threw the phone aside.
By evening.
Lu Jingxun was so bored that he went to the rooftop terrace to get some fresh air.
Knowing that he disliked being disturbed, the nanny placed the food aside and then carefully withdrew.
Lu Jingxun looked up.
The surrounding area is flat and open fields, with few decent buildings, only a few scattered small tile-roofed houses.
The tallest building in the vicinity is his three-story house.
Next to the Lu family's courtyard wall was a two-story building with mottled and dilapidated walls. Large pieces of paint had peeled off, revealing the dark gray bricks and stones underneath.
It's practically no different from a slum.
Is this house even habitable?
Even rats probably wouldn't want to go there.
Lu Jingxun continued to look around, his gaze wandering over the surroundings.
The sun was about to set, the light was gradually dimming, and visibility was becoming somewhat blurry.
Suddenly, his gaze fell on the rooftop of the small building next door, and his expression instantly hardened.
Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a figure there.
Long hair... she's a young woman.
What is she doing?
The movements looked a bit strange.
Lu Jingxun subconsciously squinted, trying to get a better look, and couldn't help but wonder: Could this lousy place be haunted?
He frowned impatiently.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted sharply, his brain seemed to freeze for a moment, a rush of heat to his head, and he was startled—
bath?
She's taking a shower?!
This realization startled Lu Jingxun, who quickly looked away and couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.
Is this woman crazy?!
Taking a shower on the rooftop in broad daylight?
