Now that she suddenly heard Lin Chu say that, it was as if she was facing a formidable enemy. "I'll definitely stay away from him! Tomorrow, I'll go and ask around tomorrow to find out who moved in. "
Lin Chu smiled and nodded. She didn't stop Aunt Zhuang and went back to the bedroom to change her clothes.
When she calmed down, she thought about Lu Zhenghang's words and felt especially uncomfortable.
No matter what, she decided to remind Yan Beicheng. It was mealtime. When Lin Chu called, Yan Beicheng was eating a simple burger with the people from the Yanhui branch company and having a meeting.
They ordered an American restaurant downstairs. They ordered hamburgers, fries, salad, thick soup, and a cup of coffee for everyone.
Yan Beicheng's stomach wasn't good, so Lin Chu rarely let him drink coffee. He remembered Lin Chu's words, so he stopped the person who ordered the food and changed it to a cup of black tea.
While eating, Yan Beicheng received a call from Lin Chu.
His first reaction was joy.
In the past, Lin Chu definitely wouldn't call him at this time, but he was afraid that he would delay him.
Hence, Yan Beicheng immediately stopped the meeting and left the meeting room with the black tea.
"What's wrong?" Yan Beicheng asked.
"When I came back, I met Lu Zhenghang at the elevator entrance," Lin Chu said directly.
Originally, he was a little panicked because he didn't see Lu Zhenghang, but after telling Yan Beicheng, he felt at ease.
On the other end of the line, Yan Beicheng's hand that was holding the handle of the cup tightened. His expression was tense. "What is he doing there?"
"I don't know. I saw that the person following him seems to be a real estate agent. Aunt Zhuang said that the residents on the ninth floor of our building are selling their houses. I'm afraid that he's here to buy a house," Lin Chu said. "After seeing him, I felt uneasy, so I wanted to tell you immediately. Otherwise, it'll be hard to keep this in my heart."
Yan Beicheng laughed. "I got it. I'll check it out. No matter what, be careful at home. I'll get Shao Huai to pick you up after work tomorrow night. "
"Okay." Lin Chu didn't object.
Although she felt that Lu Zhenghang couldn't do anything to her, she still felt creeped out when facing him. Hence, she didn't force herself. With Shao Huai picking her up, she felt more at ease.
However, she didn't understand what Mrs. Yan meant, so she didn't tell Yan Beicheng.
Without waiting for Lin Chu to ask, Yan Beicheng took the initiative to say, "I ate a beef burger, fries, salad, and black tea tonight. I didn't drink coffee. When you called, I was eating. I know it's not very nutritious. But I want to return to B City as soon as possible tomorrow, so I want to finish the work here as soon as possible. Therefore, it was more convenient to eat during the meeting. If you're feeling heartache, go back and nourish me properly. "
Lin Chu didn't even ask anything, but he said everything, making Lin Chu blush.
She knew that not only had she disturbed his meal, but she had also disturbed his meeting. Although Yan Beicheng had emphasized that he didn't mind, it was a habit that she couldn't change so easily.
After saying what he wanted to say, he said, "Then you can continue. I'm hanging up."
The other side was silent for a few seconds. Yan Beicheng didn't say anything, but he didn't hang up either. Lin Chu didn't know why, but he knew what he was trying to do. He said, "Finish your work early and come back early. I'll cook something delicious for you. "
This time, Yan Beicheng's voice instantly became spirited. His voice was rather soft, but Lin Chu could still hear the joy in his voice. He couldn't help but laugh.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Beicheng didn't immediately return to the conference room. Instead, he called Huang Zhangxian. "Help me check if the apartment on the ninth floor of my house has been sold. If not, I'll buy it at a high price. If it's sold, who did it sell to? "
On Monday night, Lin Chu saw Shao Huai when she left the office building.
No matter what, with Shao Huai accompanying her, Lin Chu felt more at ease.
However, when they weren't far from Lin Yi, Lin Chu noticed that Shao Huai was suddenly looking at the rearview mirror.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chu saw Shao Huai's tense expression, and her heart was in her throat. "Did something happen?"
Subconsciously, Lin Chu turned around to look.
But after looking for a long time, she couldn't see anything.
Shao Huai said in a deep voice, "There's a car following us."
But Shao Huai's voice was calm and didn't show any signs of panic. Somehow, Lin Chu felt relieved.
"We're not far from Lin Yi. Don't misunderstand, right?" Lin Chu felt that even if they were following them, they would have to follow a little bit to notice.
Shao Huai smiled. "It doesn't matter how far it is. If they were following us on purpose, they would be able to recognize us. If they were experienced, they might not be able to notice us at such a short distance. But the car following us clearly doesn't have any experience. "
Shao Huai looked at the rearview mirror again and frowned. "Or maybe he's deliberately letting us see. What does he want to do? To scare us? "
"..." For some reason, Lin Chu felt that the person following behind them should be Lu Zhenghang.
Lin Chu frowned and turned around. Looking at the car behind them, he asked Shao Huai, "Which car is it?"
Shao Huai glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "It's that black Cayenne."
Lin Chu found it at a glance, but there were several cars between them, so he couldn't see inside.
When Shao Huai drove the car to his house, Shao Huai thought for a moment and said, "I'll send you to the door."
Lin Chu nodded. He was a little afraid of meeting Lu Zhenghang.
Shao Huai sent Lin Chu to the door and didn't see Lu Zhenghang again. Lin Chu sighed in relief.
"Since we're here, let's have dinner together," Lin Chu said. Otherwise, Shao Huai would have to wake up early to send her home.
Shao Huai smiled shyly. He scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Not tonight. Zuo Qiu introduced me to a girl. It's our first meeting tonight, so I want to meet her."
Lin Chu's eyes widened in surprise, joy, and worry. He was happy that Shao Huai wanted to meet the girl, and worried that Zuo Qiu introduced her. Was it reliable?
With Zuo Qiu's silly look …
But Lin Chu still silently gave Shao Huai good wishes and watched him leave.
There were only her and Aunt Zhuang at home, and the husky on New Year's Eve. The meal was very simple. There were only two dishes, one meat and one vegetable, to avoid waste.
After eating and resting for about an hour, Lin Chu went to the gym.
While he was sweating profusely doing Pilates on the mat, the door was opened by Aunt Zhuang. Aunt Zhuang said with a horrified expression, "Lin Chu, there's a person outside. He says he's a new resident on the ninth floor. He looks quite young, and he says his name is Lu Zhenghang."
After Aunt Zhuang finished speaking, she saw Lin Chu frown and asked, "Is he the person you said yesterday who harbors ill intentions towards Sir?"
Lin Chu nodded, got up, took off the towel hanging on the side, and wiped the sweat off his neck. When he came out, he asked in a low voice, "You didn't let him in, did you?"
"Of course not." Aunt Zhuang shook her head. "There are only two women and a husky in our house. It's not safe. I don't know Lu Zhenghang, so I can't let him in easily. What if something happens? Don't be fooled by the fact that this neighborhood is high-end, but the people who live here are all rich people. You can know a person's face but not their heart. A lot of rich people have very dirty hearts! "
Lin Chu felt that Aunt Zhuang's next sentence was about to start educating her, telling her not to let strangers in easily, so he hurriedly said, "Yes, Aunt Zhuang, do you remember that person? He harbors ill intentions towards Beicheng, and we don't know what he's up to. When I got off work tonight, he even followed me in his car. Fortunately, Shao Huai sent me back, or else it would have been very scary. "
Aunt Zhuang said, "He looks like a decent person, but he's not a psychopath, is he?"
"Didn't you say that you can know a person's face but not their heart? Who knows what he's up to, so we should be careful. When Beicheng isn't here, we can't let him use us, "Lin Chu said.
"Don't worry, I'm very vigilant!" Aunt Zhuang said as she patted her chest.
Lin Chu nodded and followed Aunt Zhuang to the door. Aunt Zhuang was about to open the door when Lin Chu suddenly called out to her, "Aunt Zhuang, wait a moment."
As he said that, he ran to the bathroom and found a small bottle of insecticide in his travel clothes. He stuffed it into his pants pocket before coming out again.
The sports pants were soft and loose, and it was impossible to see that there was something in the pocket.
Aunt Zhuang only hesitated for a moment before she opened the door again. Lu Zhenghang was still standing at the door with the same sarcastic smile on his face.
Seeing Lin Chu and Aunt Zhuang standing together, Lu Zhenghang actually smiled sincerely, "Miss Lin."
"Mr. Lu, what's the matter?" Lin Chu wasn't too cold, but she was very distant.
"I'm a new resident of the ninth floor, but the house is currently being renovated. I came over tonight to take a look and remembered that you live here, so I came up to say hello." Lu Zhenghang nudged his chin towards the room. "Aren't you going to invite me in?"
"Sorry, it's not convenient," Lin Chu said coldly.
Lu Zhenghang smiled, as if he didn't care about her attitude. "It's not convenient for me to go in, but it's the same for you to come out."
As he said that, he looked at Aunt Zhuang. "I wonder if you can leave for a moment."
Aunt Zhuang said without thinking, "No."
Lu Zhenghang: "..."
He really had never met such a straightforward person!
Lu Zhenghang lowered his head with a smile and said, "Okay, then I can say it here. I'll just talk about Ms. Jiang and - "
"Mr. Lu!" Lin Chu quickly interrupted him, angrily pursing her lips.
Lu Zhenghang looked at the anger in her eyes, but it made her black and white eyes even brighter and more vivid.
Lu Zhenghang couldn't help but look at Lin Chu with a face full of interest.
Lin Chu loosened her tight lips and turned to Aunt Zhuang. "I'll go out and say a few words to him."
"Lin Chu -" Aunt Zhuang was very worried. She also felt that Lu Zhenghang was not a good person.
Lin Chu shook his head. "It's okay. I'm at the door. I won't go anywhere else. I'll be back in a while."
She knew that Lu Zhenghang deliberately said that to threaten her. As long as she didn't want the matter of the Yan family to be known by others, she would have to be threatened by him.
Fortunately, there was only one resident on this floor. She was not afraid that the neighbors would hear when the door was closed.
