Qiao Anhao wanted to give Lu Jinnian a surprise, so she didn't want him to enter the house. After tidying up everything, she stood in front of the full-length mirror. After checking that there were no problems, she grabbed her handbag and waited outside Mian Xiu Garden.
After about fifteen minutes, Qiao Anhao saw Lu Jinnian's car turn from a junction in the distance.
At that moment, the sun was setting. The bright red sunlight illuminated the red-tiled, white-walled Mian Xiu Garden villa, making it look like a paradise.
Just as Lu Jinnian turned the corner, he saw Qiao Anhao standing outside the villa's fence. The colorful roses on the fence were in full bloom. She was wearing a long, nude dress. Her black hair reached her waist, and her skin was as white as snow. Under the glow of the setting sun and the fresh flowers, she looked like a beautiful scene out of a fantasy.
Lu Jinnian was a little dazed until Qiao Anhao, who was standing by the side of the road, waved at him. He blinked and snapped back to reality. He hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but the car was still about three meters away from her.
Just as he was about to turn the car around, Qiao Anhao walked over in her high heels. She bent down and smiled at him through the window. She opened the car door and sat inside.
Before Lu Jinnian came to pick her up, he had already tidied up. He wore a dark blue suit, and his hair was styled in Xu Jiamu's favorite style. There were many scars on his face, and even his eyebrows were redrawn to Xu Jiamu's eyebrows.
Between Xu Jiamu and Lu Jinnian, one was too cold and aloof, while the other was a spoiled young master. Even if the two of them looked very similar, it was hard to notice because of how different their thoughts were.
But now, if Qiao Anhao hadn't known that Lu Jinnian was pretending to be Xu Jiamu, even if they had grown up together, she wouldn't have been able to tell that the "Xu Jiamu" in front of her was in disguise.
Xu Jiamu's birthday party was held at the Xu family home, which wasn't far from Mian Xiu Garden. Even though it was after work and the roads were a little congested, it didn't take more than forty minutes to reach the Xu family home.
The birthday party would start at eight o 'clock in the evening. It was only seven o' clock now. There was still an hour before the guests arrived. The spacious courtyard was empty and comfortable.
Lu Jinnian casually found an empty spot to park his car. He walked to the door and pressed the doorbell like a gentleman. Not even ten seconds later, there was the sound of the door being unlocked. Then, the door was pulled open. It was the housekeeper who had served the Xu family for many years. It was said that he had been brought over from the Han family when Han Ruchu married into the family.
The housekeeper stepped aside to let them in before shouting, "Sir, Madam, Miss Anhao is here."
Qiao Anhao and Lu Jinnian were clearly standing outside the door, but the housekeeper only mentioned Qiao Anhao.
Just as she walked past the entrance, she bumped into Han Ruchu, who had just come out of the house to welcome her.
Han Ruchu was wearing an off-the-shoulder red dress with a huge ruby on her neck. Her hair was tied up in a bun, making her look dignified and noble. Just like the housekeeper, she only mentioned Qiao Anhao. "Qiao Qiao is here?"
As she said this, she grabbed Qiao Anhao's hand and led her enthusiastically into the house. From start to finish, she didn't even glance at Lu Jinnian, as though he was air.
