Lin Yusheng wasn't 100% sure what Lu Zhengye said was true, but she couldn't afford to take the risk.
If her brother finds out that she is living with Lu Zhengye, she's finished.
She rushed out without saying a word, and even came back to grab a cotton coat.
Lin Yusheng had just returned to the front door of her villa, and before she could even open the gate, she heard the sound of a car horn.
She was startled and turned around to see her beloved brother, Lin Jingyu.
Lin Jingyu stopped the car, got out, and rolled down the window.
Lin Yusheng's heart pounded with fear, but she pretended to be surprised and asked, "Brother, what are you doing here?"
"Shouldn't I be asking you that? What are you doing so early in the morning when it's snowing?"
"I...I'm taking a walk."
Lin Jingyu didn't believe it, "You don't even use an umbrella when you go for a walk?"
"I have a hat, so I'm too lazy to use an umbrella."
Lin Jingyu couldn't understand it at all, and his whole face scrunched up.
He said disdainfully, "But you can't just come out in your pajamas and slippers, without washing your face or combing your hair, can you?"
Lin Yusheng: "..." How do I explain this? I need an answer urgently.
Before Lin Yusheng could speak, Lin Jingyu continued, "You're a public figure now, you can't be so unkempt."
"I know, I know, it's freezing, let's go inside quickly." Lin Yusheng opened the door and let Lin Jingyu drive the car in.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhengye was on the windowsill of his second-floor bedroom, watching the somewhat cozy scene in the neighboring house with an inscrutable expression and a slightly stinging look in his eyes.
Lin Yusheng only realized why Lin Jingyu had come after he got out of the car.
He took out a lot of fresh ingredients from the trunk, and seeing Lin Yusheng standing there, he shouted, "Aren't you going to come and help?"
Lin Yusheng was speechless. "I mean, you came all this way to see me just to have hot pot with me?"
Lin Yusheng noticed that they had even brought a pot in the trunk.
"Do you think I wanted to come? It was my parents who forced me to come. They said they were worried you'd be eating takeout all the time here by yourself, so they dragged me out of bed early this morning to come and have hot pot with you."
The old man was truly pitiful, but Lin Yusheng laughed without any mercy.
She said proudly, "My parents are so good."
Today is Sunday, and my brother and father both have the day off.
Lin Yusheng asked again, "Then why don't Mom and Dad call me home for dinner?"
"Hmph, your parents are worried about your safety driving. They also said that if I pick you up and drop you off, they're afraid you'll go hungry on the way." Lin Jingyu said with a resentful look.
He angrily and rudely took out the ingredients.
Lin Yusheng couldn't stop smiling.
After moving all her belongings into the house, Lin Yusheng went to wash up.
When she came downstairs, the person sitting in the living room startled her so much that she almost jumped up.
Who else could it be but Lu Zhengye, the tall, long-legged man sitting there in a black loungewear suit?
Lu Zhengye sat calmly on the sofa, crossing his legs and reading the newspaper.
Lin Yusheng didn't see her brother and assumed that Lu Zhengye had come to find her, so she sneaked over.
She nervously leaned close to Lu Zhengye's ear and whispered, "Why did you come here? My brother is still here."
Lu Zhengye curled his lips into a wicked smile.
Lin Yusheng immediately knew he was up to no good.
But with her petite frame, it was impossible for her to subdue the tall Lu Zhengye.
Lu Zhengye said in a normal voice, "Your brother invited me to have lunch together."
Lin Yusheng was taken aback at first, and then she saw her brother wearing an apron peeking out of the kitchen.
Lin Jingyu was far away and didn't notice the awkward atmosphere. He said, "Yes, I invited Young Master Lu here. It's more lively with more people, and you're neighbors, so you should visit each other more often and help each other out."
Lin Jingyu had no idea how serious the situation was.
Since her own brother had said so, Lin Yusheng could only agree.
As soon as Lin Jingyu turned to go into the kitchen, Lin Yusheng immediately whispered to Lu Zhengye, "Please pretend you're not very familiar with me, otherwise I'll be in big trouble."
Lin Yusheng was flustered and didn't see the fleeting look of desolation in Lu Zhengye's eyes.
Even Lu Zhengye didn't know why he felt so sad.
"Um."
Lin Yusheng hesitated, but after spending so much time with Lu Zhengye, she could tell from the tone of his every "hmm" that he seemed a little unhappy.
But the most important thing now is to deceive her brother, so Lin Yusheng didn't ask any further questions.
At that moment, Lin Jingyu's voice came from the kitchen, "Lin Yusheng, come and help."
"Okay, coming."
When Lin Yusheng got up, she thought for a moment and then planted a kiss on Lu Zhengye's face.
It was a form of appeasement and supplication.
Lin Yusheng went into the kitchen to help prepare the ingredients.
Shortly after, Lu Zhengye appeared at the kitchen door and asked, "Can I help with anything?"
He was a guest, and Lin Jingyu originally wanted to say no, but then he thought that he would be a little bored if he was there alone.
So he was asked to help Lin Yusheng prepare the vegetables.
Even when acting in a scene where the truth is hidden, Lin Yusheng gets nervous, let alone in real life.
But Lu Zhengye remained calm, as if he truly did not recognize Lin Yusheng.
Even more outrageous, Lu Zhengye seemed to suddenly appear in theatrical form.
He asked, "How old are you this year?"
Lin Yusheng asked him with her eyes if he was sick.
But with her brother there, she still politely replied to Lu Zhengye, "23, almost 24."
Lu Zhengye nodded, then couldn't help but chuckle.
Lin Yusheng secretly kicked him, then gave him a warning look.
