Chapter 209 Side Quest Continues
Chapter 209 Side Quest Continues
After school, Lu He refused the people from her family who came to pick her up and insisted on continuing to live outside.
The driver and bodyguard were in a dilemma for a long time.
"Miss Xi, didn't you stop being angry with the master? Why are you still unwilling to come back?"
Lu He rolled his eyes. What else could it be? Of course, it was because he and his wife were also enjoying a blissful time together outside.
She said, “Oh, I’m not angry. I just want some freedom. When you go back, tell my dad I’m staying at a friend’s house and I’m very happy.”
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment, then dialed Mr. Han's number and relayed Lu He's message.
He had clearly been scolded a few times, and then hurriedly handed his phone to Lu He: "Miss..."
Lu He naturally understood, took the phone, and began to whine and plead, "Please, Dad, I'm really having a great time living with my friend. It's that Lin classmate you met last time, the top student! She can even tutor me!"
Sure enough, the whole process was quite effective. Mr. Han happily agreed and was very pleased that his daughter knew to study hard with her top-performing classmates. She was so sensible.
Lu He hung up the phone triumphantly and tossed it back to the security guard. This kind of father, who loves his daughter but is stubborn and soft-hearted, is best coaxed.
Xia Lan waited for Lu He at the entrance of a small supermarket not far from the school gate, keeping an eye on her every move.
Soon, Lu He was seen coming over, whistling, in a great mood.
"So it went so smoothly?" Xia Lan greeted her with a smile.
"That's right, you know my strength~" Lu He blinked deliberately and said in a teasing tone.
Xia Lan knew her too well and immediately realized what she meant. Her face flushed, she punched her lightly: "Don't you ever have a serious moment?"
Lu He stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously, reaching out to take Xia Lan's hand: "Okay~ Xiao Lan, let's go to the supermarket to buy some groceries, I'll cook you a nice meal tonight?"
"Okay, I'll try your cooking tonight~" Xia Lan nodded happily, it had been a long time since she had eaten a meal cooked by Lu He herself.
Hearing her say that, Lu He couldn't help but grin mischievously again, leaning close to Xia Lan's ear: "What kind of skill is it~"
He got another beating, and well, he deserved it.
Click, click, click! Several photos were taken just like that. The two were laughing and joking, whispering to each other, looking very close.
I clicked send in the chat box on my phone.
Then the person put away their phone, pulled their hat down low, and left.
At that moment, in the Han family home, the stepmother's phone was buzzing. She quickly went over, picked up the phone, opened the chat window, and saw several photos of Han Xi and Lin Yingxin walking side by side.
The stepmother frowned. The two of them were like an ironclad block, so close that they were really difficult to deal with.
Since it's difficult to make a move against Han Xi, it would be better to turn to Lin Yingxin instead.
The stepmother remembered that she had previously sent someone to investigate Lin Yingxin. The information showed that Lin Yingxin had a half-sister named Lin Zhao. Lin Zhao was sent abroad when she was about twelve years old, supposedly because her parents had a big fight and that's why they sent her away.
To put it bluntly, she's probably an illegitimate child...
Her eyes darted around, and a plan came to her.
Since they are half-siblings, they should be able to be instigated. Why not transfer her to this school to deal with Han Xi and Lin Yingxin?
Without hesitation, the stepmother immediately dialed the phone: "I need you to do something for me..."
Lu He's all-purpose messaging phone was lying alone on the coffee table in the living room, buzzing loudly.
No matter how hard it shook, the two people inside remained unmoved.
Lu He used her fingers to gently tuck Xia Lan's hair behind her ear.
Xia Lan caught a whiff of her scent: "Didn't you say you'd cook when you got back?"
The large bag of groceries I bought at the supermarket is now lying quietly in the kitchen sink, and the fish that was once lively and jumping around is now belly up and not moving at all.
"Hmm~ Yeah, it's time to cook~" That knowing, mischievous grin again.
Xia Lan, who understood immediately, blushed again.
Lu He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I'll repay you tenfold for your hospitality last time~"
"Eh? You..." Xia Lan's eyes widened in shock and embarrassment, but she only managed to utter one word before Lu He's gentle touch silenced her...
