Chapter 804: Chapter 314: [Heartbreaking Fairy Tale] He Falls from the Edge of the Cliff (Part 7)_2

The servant nodded politely and responded, "Okay, sir, please sit for a moment. I’ll go right away."

"Mm."

Lu Huai’an changed into slippers, stepping onto the wooden floor without making an obvious sound. If he had been wearing those leather shoes, it would have been much more intimidating.

Although Lin Chu kept her head down, her peripheral vision followed the man’s footsteps.

Watching him walk over from the door, step by step, his long legs moving in steady rhythm. Actually, she was wrong; this kind of silent danger is even more terrifying.

His fingers, with clearly defined knuckles, undid the buttons of his suit jacket elegantly and with noble poise, and he sat down on the sofa opposite.

Before he even spoke, Lin Chu swallowed nervously without any self-control.

The living room was particularly quiet. After placing the brewed tea on the coffee table, the servant looked at Lin Chu, who seemed like she had done something wrong with her lowered head, and secretly smiled.

Since when did their lady become so submissive?

If the master were here, he’d probably be quite saddened. The Lin Family’s fearless daughter is actually acting so timid, haha.

...

The servants sensibly avoided them, leaving just the two of them in the living room.

Lin Chu slowly inched over beside the man, with a sincere attitude, "It’s just you know, lying was my fault. I admit it and apologize."

Lu Huai’an didn’t say anything, elegantly drinking his tea, not even casting a sidelong glance at Lin Chu, who confessed her mistake sincerely.

Lin Chu couldn’t figure out his approach, but explaining it clearly could never be wrong.

Though the man was aloof and ignored her, she wasn’t the type to give up easily and leaned into his arms more and more, "But there’s a reason. You know Brother Ji Huan is getting engaged to Fang Yi tonight, and I’m worried Wanwan might not take it well. She’s my best friend; I can’t bear to see her so upset alone." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Everyone says Lin Chu has a good personality, with countless friends in her circle.

But only she knows that the friendships maintained on the surface are just facades. In high society, it’s not that easy to genuinely open up to someone.

When she’s doing well, she’s not envious but hopes she shines even brighter. Among her female friends, probably only Ji Wanxia is real.

Perhaps what Lin Chu said this time was quite pertinent, as Lu Huai’an’s gaze finally settled on her clean little face, asking indifferently, "Will you lie again in the future?"

Lying is a bad habit! Who let it develop!

At this moment, Lin Chu certainly wouldn’t counter him. She wrapped her arms around the man’s lean arm and responded readily, "No, no, even in special situations, I’ll give you a heads-up first."

Everyone lies; Lin Chu doesn’t lie for the sake of lying.

"Why are you always so elusive?" Though it was a complaint, her exquisite features were graced with a gentle smile, "Why didn’t you tell me you’d come home today when I called you last night?"

Since his birthday, they hadn’t met in two months.

With his character, he wouldn’t do video calls. Being able to get him to answer the phone or reply to a message was already not easy.

Love-sickness really is hard to endure, like when she had her wisdom teeth growing in. When she had something to keep busy, she’d temporarily forget it, but as soon as the lights were off at night and she was lying in bed, the faint pain would break through.

Not even in her dreams could anyone else appear.

The tea was still somewhat hot, and the girl, as if boneless, clung to his side. Rather than push her away, Lu Huai’an, worried she might get burned, put the tea cup back on the table.

Raising his arm, he naturally pulled her into his embrace, expressionlessly stating, "I told you, you were asleep."

Lin Chu fell onto the man’s thigh, her little face pinched into a bunch by his hand; she didn’t mind, but instead felt a little confused by his words, "Ah? Why didn’t you wake me? So I could pick you up at the airport."

Lu Huai’an had many things to do every day, and Lin Chu wouldn’t disturb him during work. Because of the time difference, Lin Chu would call him only after 11 p.m. every night.

It might be because she hadn’t relaxed her attention these days, afraid that Ji Wanxia would have an accident if she wasn’t careful. So, after only a few minutes of the phone call last night, she fell asleep.

Actually, when she called, Lu Huai’an was already on his way to the airport, but he didn’t tell her that.

The girl’s face didn’t have much excess fat, but because her skin was delicate, it felt good to pinch. Lu Huai’an seemed to have found a new toy, pinching from her cheeks to her chin.
