Lu Jinchen stopped in his tracks and hesitated for a while. In the end, he turned around and returned to his seat.

Bai Qiushui went to the bathroom to fix her makeup.

When she came out again, Lu Qing was already at the entrance of the restaurant in her wheelchair.

“Sister Lu Qing, you’re here.”

Bai Qiushui hurried over and took the wheelchair from the nanny.

“Sister, you can tell me if you want to have the food here. Why did you come all the way here?” Lu Jinchen also got up and pulled out the chair in front of the table.

If Lu Qing hadn’t asked Lu Jinchen out today, he wouldn’t have come here.

“I haven’t been out for a while, so I wanted to come out for some fresh air.” Lu Qing was pushed to the front of the table. She looked at the table full of food. Then, she looked at his brother and future sister-in-law, who was waiting for her and smiled.

“Sister Lu Qing, I just bought a new leg massager. It’s good for relaxing your leg muscles. you can take it back and try it.” Bai Qiushui said as she took out the gift she had prepared.

“Qiushui, you’re too kind.” Lu Qing asked Auntie Li to take it. “However, I’m afraid my legs can’t be healed completely. It’s already been four years, and you have massaged me a lot.”

Lu Jinchen gave her some food with his chopsticks.

“Let’s eat first. It won’t taste good if it’s cold.”

“You should give Qiushui some food.” Lu Qing reminded.

Lu Jinchen stopped eating. He picked up the chopsticks and put something into Bai Qiushui’s bowl.

Lu Qing nodded with a smile and started to eat.

Bai Qiushui was flattered, and her face turned slightly red.

She had not seen Lu Jinchen for a few months.

Lu Jinchen didn’t like it when Bai Qiushui went to the company to look for him. He didn’t like it when she went to the Lu residence to look for him. he also didn’t like it when she called him.

She could only meet him through Lu Qing’s help.

After the three of them finished their meal, Lu Jinchen wanted to send Lu Qing home. But when Bai Qiushui heard that, she quickly said she was free in the afternoon and wanted to go to the Lu residence to accompany her sister.

Bai Qiushui thought that with Lu Qing around, Lu Jinchen would not reject her request to step into the Lu residence.

However…

Lu Jinchen said that he had something to do at the company and went back to the company directly.

Bai Qiushui looked at his cold back and bit her lip with a wronged expression.

“Take it slow, Qiushui. Jinchen is a career-minded man. He doesn’t have any other woman besides you. ” Lu Qing consoled her.

Bai Qiushui nodded.

“I know,” after thinking for a while, she still mentioned it. “Sister Lu Qing, I just saw Mu Yao.”

“What?”

Lu Qing was so shocked that she almost stood up from her wheelchair.

“She’s back…” Bai Qiushui recounted what had just happened in the dining room, adding some extra details to the story.

As Lu Qing listened, she couldn’t help but grab her knees tighter and tighter.

“Sister Lu Qing, do you think she came back at this time because she heard that Jinchen and I are about to get engaged? ”

“Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, Mu Yao will never step into the Lu family again.” Lu Qing gritted his teeth. His tone sounded more like an oath.

Bai Qiushui relaxed.

…

On Mu Yao’s side, after leaving the restaurant with Song Yufei, they didn’t find another place to eat. Instead, they went straight back to the company.

The car had just arrived at the company’s entrance.

Bai Zhenkai’s secretary walked over.

“Miss Mu, District Mayor Bai is waiting for you at the teahouse in front of the company. Please make a trip there.”

Song Yufei’s eyes were wide open in disbelief. Bai Zhenkai was asking her female subordinate out in broad daylight.

“Bai Zhenkai, are you not ashamed? Although old cows love to eat young grass, you’re too old!” Song Yufei cursed in his heart.
