But... he possesses a skill that others don't: mind reading.
He can tell what the other person is thinking just by standing in front of them, so... he's not aloof or socially anxious, he just hears too many inner voices.
There are many people who flatter him, but because he has the ability to read minds, he can tell which people are genuinely flattering him and which are truly hypocritical.
It was precisely because he could know what others were thinking that Lu Xingchuan had also heard many dark stories, stories that he still finds hard to forget.
He even felt somewhat averse to contact with people, and even more so to possessing the ability to read minds. Ultimately, he chose to live here; the environment is excellent, there are few people, and the detached villas rarely disturb him.
The girl in front of him seemed to have ulterior motives. From the few words she was thinking, Lu Xingchuan guessed that she had come for him, but what exactly did she want to do?
"Thank you." Wan Ge thought to herself: I knew he would react when he heard me playing the violin.
There is no doubt about it. He would never be unmoved to hear a familiar voice. He should be very familiar with her voice, even if it is just the sound of her musical instruments.
"Do you know me?" Lu Xingchuan asked doubtfully, so she also had ulterior motives towards him, whether it was for money, status, or something else.
For some reason, Lu Xingchuan felt that the woman in front of him meant something very different to him. He didn't want the girl to approach him with ulterior motives; it would make him feel very uncomfortable, more uncomfortable than he had ever felt before.
"Huh? Why would you ask that? This should be our first meeting." But what she really thought was: Of course! You were my husband in my past life; we were together for so many lifetimes.
Lu Xingchuan was stunned. She said they knew each other in a past life? And were husbands in many lifetimes? What? Doesn't she seem a little bit abnormal?
"you…"
Looking into the other person's questioning eyes, Lu Xingchuan ultimately said nothing: "Would you like to come to my house for a cup of tea?"
He wanted to hear what other absurd things she could say, like about past lives and reincarnations. You think you can?
Although Lu Xingchuan felt something was strange, no one else would know that he had the ability to read minds. He had kept it well hidden for so many years, so the person in front of him wasn't just saying it in his mind. She genuinely believed it. So what was her purpose?
Lu Xingchuan felt a sense of anticipation. Although the idea of past and present lives was absurd, he figured Lu Xingchuan was probably only after him as a person, not his status, power, or wealth. Thinking this made him feel much better.
"Oh!" Wan Ge was dumbfounded, silently communicating with the system in her mind: "Ruan Ruan! The villain's account has been hacked, right? Why is it like this? Didn't you say he didn't like interacting with people?"
Ruan Ruan answered Wan Ge softly, "I don't know either. I also think this villain is very strange. Should I go and look into it?"
"good."
Wan Ge's conversation with the system was not something she was thinking, so Lu Xingchuan couldn't read her words.
However, Lu Xingchuan could hear Wan Ge's inner turmoil as she looked at him, wondering if she had the wrong person.
So he's not her lover anymore? Lu Xingchuan thought to himself.
…
Wan Ge followed him into the courtyard, which was filled with all sorts of exotic flowers. It was springtime, and the flowers were in full bloom, making it look incredibly beautiful.
