Lu Jinglan noticed it was getting late. "Ru Bao, take a shower first. If you need anything, just tell the maid. I'll head out now."
"Okay, Lanlan, thank you."
Lu Jinglan left, and Xu Rubao saw that she had a change of clothes, and also clothes to change into for tomorrow.
She didn't want to cause them any trouble, but now she had no choice but to stay and bother them.
However, she never expected to meet her benefactor here tonight.
She hadn't asked him for his phone number yet, but she felt that no matter what, she should at least treat Cheng Yiqian to a proper meal.
Since he's here to meet Lanlan on a blind date, he probably won't leave right away.
I heard he's a soldier. Soldiers on leave can't just take it all at once.
She was just thinking about inviting Cheng Yiqian to dinner when the door opened again. She thought it was Lanlan.
Turning around, I saw Lu Jingheng.
"Mr. Lu, is there something you need?"
Hearing her tone, Lu Jingheng said, "Xu Rubao, I've noticed you're getting bolder and bolder, not taking me seriously at all. It seems I've spoiled you too much."
Xu Rubao, who was sitting, immediately stood up and straightened his posture upon hearing his words.
"Mr. Lu, what can I do for you?"
Looking at the obsequious manner, Lu Jingheng felt his blood pressure rise with anger.
"Are you close to Cheng Yiqian? You need to know that he can never be yours. Do you know what kind of family the Cheng family is? Just an ordinary girl, do you think they would even look at you?"
Xu Rubao found these words particularly offensive. What was wrong with her?
"I think Cheng Yiqian is easy to get along with, and Aunt Fang, she seems to like me quite a bit."
At least, although Cheng Yiqian doesn't talk much, he's much easier to get along with than him.
Unlike him, who changes his attitude as easily as turning the pages of a book and is always finding fault with her.
“Xu Rubao, don’t flatter yourself. They’re only nice to you because of me.”
“I don’t think it’s just because of your face. I can feel that they seem to like me quite a bit, and it doesn’t seem fake. I also like them quite a bit. There’s a sense of warmth between us. They’re definitely not the kind of people who are arrogant.”
Xu Rubao didn't know why, but she had always felt that she was different from them.
A government official's wife like Madam Cheng is definitely not easy to get along with.
But in the evening, Mrs. Cheng served her food and showed concern for her well-being.
She has never had a mother since birth, so she feels really warm.
Lu Jingheng wasn't saying the Cheng family was bad, but hearing her say that made him furious.
"Xu Rubao, do you like men like Cheng Yiqian?"
He admitted that Cheng Yiqian was indeed quite outstanding, but he was not a good match for Xu Rubao at all.
Perhaps, in this world, no man is worthy of her except himself.
Seeing that he was about to explode with anger, Xu Rubao suddenly had an idea: would Lu Jingheng be jealous?
"A man like Cheng Yiqian is definitely good. He's upright, sunny, and a good person at first glance."
Of course, that's the truth. She also felt quite close to him, like he was an older brother.
"Xu Rubao, you'd better know your place. Do you think you're worthy? And as for Cheng Yiqian, forget about him. He belongs to Lanlan. If you dare to even think about it, I'll break your legs."
After saying that, Lu Jingheng felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger, and he had an urge to strangle Xu Rubao at any moment.
