Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Good girl. Your parents are blessed to have such an obedient daughter like you.” Old Mrs. Lu pulled Xu Jiaojiao’s hand and gently patted it. “How have you been recently? And your grandmother and the rest?”

“I’m fine. Grandma and the rest are good too,” Xu Jiaojiao replied.

“That’s good. It’s been too long since we last met. I’ve been thinking about her.” The old lady nodded. Her expression was a little sad as she sighed softly. “Our family has let you down, you poor child. You’ve suffered a lot lately.”

Xu Jiaojiao shook her head. “Granny Lu, that’s all in the past now.”

Old Mrs. Lu did not say anything else, but she looked very sad as if she was thinking about something.

Xu Jiaojiao did not disturb Old Mrs. Lu and quietly waited for her to continue.

After a short silence, Old Mrs. Lu looked up and broke the silence.

“I heard about the wedding, Jiaojiao…” Old Mrs. Lu paused. From the corner of her eye, she saw the ring on Xu Jiaojiao’s finger, and the worst thought emerged from the bottom of her heart.

Although she already had an answer, she still asked in the end.

“Are you really married now?”

Xu Jiaojiao nodded. “Yes… Lu Zhuo and I are over now, Granny Lu.”

Xu Jiaojiao did not want to lie to Old Mrs. Lu. Even if she could lie to the old lady for now, after she left, Old Mrs. Lu might just tell Lu Zhuo he had a chance. If that happened, there would be no end to his pestering again.

She might as well tell the truth and end it here.

Old Mrs. Lu sighed slightly. She seemed to be both emotional and regretful.

“I’m sorry, Granny Lu, I…”

“Silly child, there’s no need to apologize.” Old Mrs. Lu gently held Xu Jiaojiao’s hand. “The Lu family let you down.”

“Granny Lu.” Xu Jiaojiao looked at Old Mrs. Lu and said, “Although Lu Zhuo and I didn’t get together, your friendship with my grandmother shouldn’t be affected. All these years, my grandmother…”

“Don’t worry. I’ve been friends with your grandmother for many years. We’re practically friends for life. How can I hold a grudge over this matter? That would make me seem petty,” Grandma Lu teased.

Xu Jiaojiao smiled and did not say anything else.

Perhaps this moment of peace was what the two of them cherished.

After chatting for a while, Old Mrs. Lu invited Xu Jiaojiao to have dinner at her home.

Xu Jiaojiao refused. Although the relationship between the two families had not changed, she did not like to stay with the Lu family home, nor did she want to bump into the rest of the family.

Seeing this, Madam Lu did not insist on keeping Xu Jiaojiao. Instead, she instructed the housekeeper to send Xu Jiao jiao out the door.

As soon as she walked out of the door, Xu Jiaojiao saw a black car. The window was half rolled down, revealing a handsome face. He was wearing sunglasses and was facing the sun with his eyes closed.

Bathed in the sunlight, the golden sunlight outlined the man’s side profile, making it difficult to see him clearly.

As if sensing Xu Jiaojiao’s gaze, the man took off his sunglasses and looked toward Xu Jiaojiao.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Get in the car,” Qi Shenbai said.

Xu Jiaojiao stood in front of the car door and was in no hurry to enter. Instead, she asked, “Why are you here?”

“As I was passing by, Gang Xing said that you came to the Lu family, so 1 came over,” Qi Shenbai said very naturally.

It was as if he was not the one who had abandoned the entire meeting room and made Cang Xing post his location.

“Oh.” Xu Jiaojiao did not think too much about it. “I just chatted with Old

Mrs. Lu for a while, and I’m about to go home to rest.”

“It’s almost time for lunch. Shall we go for lunch?”

“Let’s go!”

Xu Jiaojiao naturally had no reason to reject Qi Shenbai’s invitation.

Just as she opened the car door and was about to get in, Xu Jiaojiao suddenly heard someone calling her name.

A familiar voice made Xu Jiao jiao instantly feel that something was wrong. She turned around and sure enough—!

A BMW behind them opened its door. Lu Huan got out of the car and slowly walked over. Although she was shouting for Xu Jiaojiao, her gaze was fixed on Qi Shenbai.

A trace of displeasure flashed across Qi Shenbai’s eyes when he saw that figure. He got out of the car and stood beside Xu Jiaojiao.

“Why are you here?” Xu Jiao jiao frowned slightly.

Lu Huan reluctantly turned her gaze to Xu Jiaojiao. There was a hint of impatience in her beautiful eyes. “This is my home. Why do you think I’m here? Moreover, I should be the one asking you this. What are you doing in the Lu family home?”

“I’m here to visit Granny Lu. I heard that she hasn’t been feeling well recently, so 1 brought some supplements,” Xu Jiaojiao said lightly.

“Oh,” Lu Huan replied perfunctorily. Her gaze fell on Qi Shenbai, and she looked shy as she said, “Hello, handsome! My name is Lu Huan, and I’m Xu Jiaojiao’s good friend..”
