Chapter 837: Chapter 323: Sad Fairy Tale: The Whale That Became an Isolated Island (Part 4)_3

Seeing two men already decide her fate, Lin Chu couldn’t help but ask, "So what am I supposed to do?"

If she had to go to the Lu Family, then Lu Huai’an would be her boss, someone she couldn’t afford to offend.

At home, she’s already the weaker party, and at the company, she’d still be oppressed. Her days of turning things around seemed even further away.

Lu Huai’an finally met the girl’s gaze; his calm, dark eyes were as still as a tranquil lake, and he asked in return, "What do you want to do?"

Lin Chu was a bit confused. Did this mean she was free to choose?

"I don’t want to go to the Lu Family."

They were still arguing; this time it was a matter of principle, and she wouldn’t just let it go so easily.

Lu Huai’an seemed not to hear Lin Chu’s words, deciding on his own, "Then be a secretary, there’s just a vacancy."

Once again ignored, Lin Chu’s face fell.

Lin Zongjun spoke up timely to ease the tension, "Starting from the simplest position allows you to accumulate more experience. Young people shouldn’t aim too high. A secretary’s job may seem simple but is quite challenging. Huai’an also started from the bottom. You can learn a lot from him and make it easier for Daddy as he gets older."

Since the only daughter married into the Lu Family, it’s not impossible for the two families to merge one day in the future.

Lin Chu never expected her own father to say this. Clearly, before Lu Huai’an came to the Lin Family, Dad was on her side.

What exactly did Dad and Lu Huai’an talk about during that half-hour she was showering?

With no words to refuse, she nodded weakly, whispering, "...Okay."

Lin Zongjun instructed the servant to make some tea and take it to the study. As they passed by the two, he patted Lu Huai’an on the shoulder, "It’s getting late. I have work to do and will head upstairs."

Lu Huai’an released the hold on the girl’s hand and stood up, his demeanor humble, nodding slightly, "Okay."

When the servant took the prepared tea upstairs and then returned to the dining room to ask if they wanted anything to drink, Lin Chu finally realized.

Dad intended for Lu Huai’an to spend the night at the Lin Family.

She told the servant, "Mr. Lu is very busy with work and doesn’t have time to drink tea. Just clean up the dining room, and you can rest."

Without looking at Lu Huai’an, she picked up her phone from the table and walked upstairs.

The servant felt a bit awkward.

It was clear the couple hadn’t resolved their issues yet. As the Lin Family’s servants, they naturally sided with their young lady, but the son-in-law’s status wasn’t something they could neglect.

What a dilemma.

As the servant was awkwardly unsure of what to do, they heard words that relieved them.

"Go about your duties. If I need anything, I’ll handle it myself."

"...Okay."

Lu Huai’an had already heard the door close upstairs, his cold and resolute features showing no sign of anger or irritation, as he took long strides upstairs.

Sure enough, the bedroom door was locked.

Not surprised, he was about to find a servant to get the spare key when the butler brought the key to the door, along with new men’s pajamas.

This was, of course, not a decision made by the butler alone.

No one in this house understood his daughter better than Lin Zongjun.

Lu Huai’an took the key and smoothly opened the bedroom door.

While brushing her teeth, Lin Chu heard the sound of the door unlocking, and all her movements stopped. The bathroom door was open, and she could clearly see the reflection of the scene in the mirror.

Her gaze fixed on the key hanging from the man’s fingers.

With her mouth full of foam, she couldn’t speak clearly, "Where did you get the key?"

She had locked the door; wasn’t it obvious what that meant?

Lu Huai’an let out an ambiguous cold laugh.

Placing the pajamas and key at the foot of the bed, he began unbuttoning his shirt with calm and graceful movements.

Step by step, he walked into the bathroom, closed the door, and turned the girl frozen in front of the mirror to face him, rotating her body one hundred eighty degrees.

His dark eyes were deep and unpredictable, and only after a few seconds of eye contact did her gaze start to wander.

"I learned it from you. So? You can treat me like this, but when I do the same to you, does it hurt your male pride?"
