Lu's mother, who was watching TV in the living room, was shocked to see Lu Yanci come in carrying a kitten.
Is it raining blood outside today?
It wasn't until he was about to go up the stairs that Lu's mother realized what was happening.
They hurriedly called the person to stop.
Her eyes kept glancing at the kitten in his arms.
Where did the cat come from?
"Meow--"
As if responding to her, the kitten meowed softly, a sweet, gentle sound that softened her heart.
She walked over, wanting to take a closer look at the little cutie, when she saw Lu Yanci turn his body to the side.
He replied casually, "I picked it up by the roadside."
Mother Lu: "..."
Does she think she's a three-year-old child?
She twitched the corner of her mouth: "You came back so late today just to pick up this cat on the street?"
Lu Yanci said without blinking, "A few friends got together, and I just picked up the cat on the spur of the moment."
"Yeah?"
This is her son, whom she has lived with day and night for so many years. Even with a blank expression on his face, she can sense the fluctuations in his emotions.
It's definitely not as simple as he makes it out to be.
"yes."
Lu's mother also knew that if he didn't want to talk about it, it wouldn't make a difference even if she pressed him for an hour.
"Whatever you say." She changed the subject and asked, "Do you have experience raising cats? Do you need to buy cat food? And what about things like cat trees? I'll have someone come and install them tomorrow?"
I never knew raising a cat was so troublesome.
Looks like I raised it correctly.
He declined Lu's mother's offer, saying that he would make the preparations himself.
Lu Yanci looked up some cat-raising tips.
Take a screenshot and save it.
Send a message to Qin Yue.
I asked her if she had time to buy some things she needed to take care of her cat after get off work tomorrow.
If President Lu really needs something, why would he need to buy it himself?
Qin Yue knew perfectly well that this was just an excuse.
She tapped her phone screen lightly and replied: No problem, where should we meet tomorrow?
Just as she sent the message, Qin Yue heard a knock on the door.
The doorknob turned, and Fang Yuanyuan poked her head in: "Sis, are you busy right now? I have something I want to tell you."
When she saw the black and white animal in Qin Yue's arms, her eyes lit up. Before Qin Yue could speak, she pushed open the door with a happy expression on her face.
After petting the cat for a while, I finally remembered what I was there to do.
She sat cross-legged on the sofa and asked seriously, "Sis, what's your relationship with that bespectacled man today?"
Qin Yue succinctly replied: "Friend."
Fang Yuanyuan's composure crumbled instantly; her face clearly said: "She'd be a fool to believe that."
"Who would ask a friend to sweep the grave in their place?" she muttered.
She asked Fang Yuanzhou today.
Fang Yuanzhou said that if a man picks up a woman from get off work, it definitely means he's interested in her.
She brought up what had happened before.
Fang Yuanzhou boldly guessed that the two had a close relationship.
It must have been that man who visited my cousin's grave.
Although she felt that this statement was... nonsense.
Even if the two have a close relationship, so what? I've never heard of needing someone to take your place when sweeping graves.
Qin Yue heard her words clearly and frowned: "What do you mean?"
"It's that man who was with you today. It was during the Qingming Festival two years ago that our whole family went to sweep the tombs, and I saw that man standing in front of Grandpa's grave with a bouquet of flowers. We don't even know him. Wasn't he there to sweep the tombs because of you?" Fang Yuanyuan noticed that the surprise on her face seemed genuine and muttered to herself, "Could I have misunderstood? I knew it. No one would sweep a tomb for someone else."
Qin Yue quickly regained her composure and stroked the kitten's fur with her fingers, saying, "Perhaps you've mistaken me for someone else."
"Yeah?"
After she said that, Fang Yuanyuan was also unsure.
Qin Yue wondered to herself if her grandfather had any interaction with Lu Yanci during his lifetime.
Or did Fang Yuanyuan really admit her mistake?
The man they were talking about replied and was still waiting for a message when he received a call from his assistant.
"Mr. Lu, you and Ms. Qin have been photographed."
The person who took the photos of the two was a paparazzi who specializes in catching up on celebrity scandals and gossip.
Qin Xu is a traffic magnet.
Qin Xu's sister also generates a lot of buzz.
What people are most curious about is who the man behind Qin Xu's sister is.
It was a coincidence that the man photographed the two of them together today.
He immediately sold the photos to an entertainment magazine.
Coincidentally, the editor-in-chief of an entertainment newspaper recognized the man in the photo as Lu Yanci.
Popularity is important.
But staying alive is more important.
The editor-in-chief contacted Lu Yanci's assistant to explain the situation.
The assistant then contacted Lu Yanci again.
As Lu Yanci's right-hand man, if he couldn't understand his boss's thoughts, there would be no need for him to stay in Lu Yanci's presence.
If it were any other woman in the photo, this matter would never have reached Lu Yanci's ears; he would have dealt with it completely.
But since it concerns Miss Qin, he couldn't keep it a secret on his own.
After hearing the whole story, Lu Yanci said in a deep voice, "Suppress it."
"Yes," the assistant quickly added, "I'll clean up the negatives and send a copy to your email."
As for what to do with the photos once they reached Lu Yanci's hands, that was none of his business.
Lu Yanci's processing results for the photos.
Open.
save.
Save it to a hidden folder that doesn't exist on the desktop.
After that, I continued to wait for a reply from the person in the photo...
...
Qin Yue guessed that Fang Yuanyuan might have mistaken someone for someone else.
However, when he met Lu Yanci the next day, he still mentioned the tomb-sweeping matter a few times.
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Yanci had already recalled what happened that day.
It was quite a coincidence.
His mother was also from Nancheng, and some of her deceased relatives were buried in the Nancheng cemetery.
Two days before the Qingming Festival, he went to Nancheng on a business trip.
His mother called and asked him to go and pay his respects to the deceased while he was at it.
Lu Yanci had met Qin Yue's maternal grandfather a few times before, and he recognized the person on the tombstone as Qin Yue's maternal grandfather at a glance.
I casually placed the flowers I had brought in front of the old man's grave.
He didn't notice whether anyone was watching.
These things seem a bit inconvenient to say aloud.
There's no way to explain it.
No matter what, it's not his place to pay respects to someone he only met a few times in life.
Lu Yanci said calmly, "I did visit the cemetery in the south of the city to pay respects to my deceased relatives before, but I didn't know that Mr. Fang was also buried there, so I didn't pay my respects to him. Did she mistake him for someone else? Or did I just happen to pass by there and she misunderstood something?"
It seems there really is such a thing.
Since the parties involved had already said so, Qin Yue could only suppress her doubts and stop asking further questions.
When the topic turned to cats, the conversation flowed much more freely.
In the following days, the two spent even more time together.
So much so that... before they returned to Nancheng, Fang Yuanyuan secretly told Qin's mother that she was in love.
Qin's mother was both happy and sad about this.
The good news is that Qin Yue's boyfriend, as Fang Yuanyuan mentioned, is Lu Yanci.
Unhappy was also because she got together with Lu Yanci, the two dated, and then got engaged and married.
From now on, my daughter and Lu Yanci will be family.
