Looking at Fifth Master Lu's incomparably handsome side profile, Chu Shuangyan was simply dumbstruck.
This was the Fifth Master of the Lu family? She wasn't dreaming, was she?
On the side, Siyu saw Chu Shuangyan staring blankly at Fifth Master Lu, and her evil thoughts couldn't be restrained. Previously, when Chu Shuangyan used Fifth Master Lu to threaten her, did she ever think that she would meet the real person? Now that Chu Shuangyan's bragging had been exposed, she naturally had to suffer. Siyu's personality was soft, but that didn't mean she didn't hold grudges.
"Miss Chu, before you were so imposing in front of me. What, now that you've seen Fifth Master in person, you can't say anything? Could it be that you're too excited?" Siyu tilted her head, a crafty light flowing through her eyes.
"You, you, you, don't go too far!" Chu Shuangyan was anxious and angry, her face flushed red. She wanted nothing more than to pounce forward and cover Siyu's mouth so that she wouldn't talk nonsense. This was simply getting messier and messier. Chu Shuangyan cautiously glanced at the expression of the person in the carriage out of the corner of her eye, only to feel her calves trembling uncontrollably.
If Chu Shuangyan had suspected that Siyu was deceiving her just now, after meeting Fifth Master Lu's gaze, this thought was completely dispelled.
What, what a terrifying aura! Chu Shuangyan subconsciously trembled. Logically speaking, the Chu family was considered a large family with many elders, but even the current head of the family, Father Chu, didn't have such an intimidating aura. Chu Shuangyan couldn't even muster the slightest bit of resistance. In a flash, she suddenly understood why that cousin of hers had been scared out of her wits back then.
If the person in front of her really was Fifth Master Lu, if it were Chu Shuangyan herself, she would also want nothing more than to hide far away, not even having the courage to look directly at him.
Fifth Master Lu stopped turning the prayer beads in his hand, his cold gaze moved away from Chu Shuangyan, who had almost broken out in a cold sweat, and moved to Siyu's face. Unknowingly, the coldness in his eyes quietly faded away, gradually dyed with a trace of undetectable warmth.
He could naturally see that this little girl was deliberately playing tricks, but it didn't matter. After knowing each other for so long, Siyu had always been timid in front of him, as if she was very afraid of him. Fifth Master Lu had never seen Siyu so happy, it was as if there was a light smile climbing up the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
Si Yu's body was weak and sickly all year round. However, when she was happy, her whole person would radiate a different kind of vitality. Her pale cheeks would turn bright red, and if one looked closely, it would look like a layer of rouge, like a just-ripened peach. It was so tempting that one couldn't help but want to take a bite and taste what it tasted like.
Siyyyue ''s's' ''s, Siyu''s, seeing his his his his''s' '''s, the, the his his his, he, his, his' ''s....' '''s.
"Your surname is Chu?" Fifth Master Lu said without the slightest emotion. He didn't look at Chu Shuangyan, but the coldness in his voice was like a sharp sword, directly stabbing into Chu Shuangyan's heart.
"Fifth Master, this is Chu Shuangyan, the daughter of the first wife of the Chu family. Do you want me to deal with this woman who doesn't know what's good for her?" The bodyguard in black sitting in the driver's seat turned around and asked in a low voice. Those who worked under Fifth Master all knew that his attitude towards the Chu family was very strange. It was like he loathed and despised them, but he never acted ruthlessly. But that was all. If any of the Chu family members didn't have eyes and dared to get close to him, he wouldn't be lenient.
"Do what you did to the clowns from the Chu family before. This time, do the same." Fifth Master Lu spoke very slowly, but every word carried an unquestionable murderous aura. "Tell the old man from the Chu family that he didn't teach his daughter well. She's very good."
"Yes." The subordinate immediately opened the car door and walked towards Chu Shuangyan with a bloody and cold aura.
Chu Shuangyan, who was standing outside the car, heard these words and saw the tall and burly bodyguard in black walking over. Her small face suddenly turned pale. In an instant, the tragic state of her cousin flashed through her mind. She also thought about what punishment awaited her if her father knew that she had provoked Fifth Master Lu. Suddenly, she felt all the strength in her body drain away.
"Zhou, Zhou Siyu, give me a hand, sob …" Chu Shuangyan was so scared that she didn't have any strength in her legs. She didn't dare to support Fifth Master Lu's car, so she could only aggrievedly reach out a hand to ask the Siyu beside her for help. Her usually spoiled voice was mixed with a trace of sobbing.
She was usually arrogant and spoiled, but when a princess was sick, she had the life of a princess. She was usually pampered at home, and no one said anything about her when she acted like a tyrant. She was treated like a pearl in the palm. However, she, the little princess of the Chu family, was not enough in front of Fifth Master Lu. She became a defeated phoenix that was worse than a chicken.
Siyu saw that Chu Shuangyan was really frightened and stopped while she was ahead. She reached out a hand for her to support. After all, Chu Shuangyan was only showing off for a moment and didn't do anything extreme. This time, she scared her and made her remember that in the future, she wouldn't speak without thinking and use her power to oppress others.
Thus, she looked up at the bodyguard and said softly, "Please wait a moment."
When the bodyguard saw that Siyu was blocking in front of Chu Shuangyan, he immediately stopped in place and respectfully made a gesture of invitation. It should be known that Fifth Master Lu was very special to this girl. When Siyu came forward, he didn't dare to act rashly.
Chu Shuangyan grabbed Siyu's slender little hand as if she was grabbing onto a life-saving straw. Only then did she not lose her composure and fall to the ground on the street. Even so, her voice was still trembling. She looked at Fifth Master Lu with eyes full of reverence. "I was talking nonsense. Fifth Master, I, I know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again …"
Fifth Master Lu's expression was originally indifferent, and he turned a deaf ear to Chu Shuangyan's pleading. However, his gaze inadvertently fell on Chu Shuangyan's hand that was tightly holding onto Siyu. He suddenly froze, and the corners of his mouth curled up. There was a hint of hostility in his smile.
"Know you were wrong? I see that the Chu family has crossed the line again and again. Why can't I see that you know you were wrong? " He opened the car door and accurately grabbed Siyu's wrist. Before Chu Shuangyan could react, the person she was still holding onto was carried into the car by the waist. Then, the car door slammed shut in front of her eyes.
Chu Shuangyan was a little dumbfounded. She looked in through the open car door and saw that Fifth Master Lu, who was unapproachable, easily took Siyu into his arms. Siyu was thin and small, as if she couldn't fill his arms. Because she was suddenly pulled into the car, the surprise on Siyu's face was not much less than Chu Shuangyan's. At this time, her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, and she looked like a silly rabbit that had been obediently eating grass but was eaten by a wolf.
He. They … Chu Shuangyan felt that her brain couldn't wrap around it. After a while, she bit the tip of her tongue and barely suppressed the scream that was about to come out.
Zhou Siyu could actually get close to Fifth Master Lu?! She wasn't seeing things, right?
Chu Shuangyan remembered that she had shouted at Siyu before, confidently saying that the sugar daddy behind her definitely wouldn't dare to go against Fifth Master Lu. Suddenly, her face turned green and white with embarrassment.
What sugar daddy, Zhou Siyu clearly had a close relationship with Fifth Master Lu himself!
Siyu was caught off guard and was pulled in. She didn't feel good either. Fifth Master Lu's murderous aura clashed with her. She struggled to leave this person's arms, but the hand around her waist was like an iron clamp. Her little bit of strength was not enough at all. After struggling for a while, she was tired and sweating.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Fifth Master Lu saw that Siyu wanted to escape again and frowned unhappily. Just when Chu Shuangyan thought that this was a sign of his anger, Fifth Master Lu helplessly pressed down on Siyu's small hand that was trying to push him away. As she wished, he carried her down from his lap and placed her steadily on the side. "Be good, it's not like I'm going to eat you."
Chu Shuangyan: "…" Did she see a fake Fifth Master?
Siyu inevitably bled when sitting next to Fifth Master Lu. She had just coughed when Fifth Master Lu took out a towel in time to wipe the blood off her. He reached out and knocked on a secret compartment in the car. He took out a small porcelain bottle, poured out half a pill, and forcefully stuffed it into her mouth. "Hold it, don't swallow it."
This pill was different from the previous ones. The taste was abnormally bitter. Siyu couldn't even swallow it when she heard that, and her small face immediately scrunched up. However, the effect of this pill was extremely domineering. As soon as it entered her mouth, the taste of blood in her throat was suppressed!
"Is it bitter?" Fifth Master Lu lifted Siyu's chin, lowered his eyes, and asked in a gentle voice.
Siyu nodded repeatedly. It was bitter, too bitter. She had long been used to drinking Chinese medicine, but she still couldn't stand the taste. It was obvious that it was really unbearable!
Unexpectedly, Fifth Master Lu's gentle expression disappeared in the next second. His tone was cold. "It's right that it's bitter. I'll teach you a lesson. If you dare to run around in the future, you'll have to eat this every day."
Siyu covered her mouth. Tears were forced out of her clear almond-shaped eyes. Her eyes were bright red, and she looked as if she wanted to pounce on Fifth Master Lu and bite him at any time.
"As for you …" Fifth Master Lu leaned against the little girl beside him. The cool temperature passed through their close-fitting clothes, calming down the violent mood in his heart. Only then did he spare a bit of energy to look at Chu Shuangyan, who was standing outside the car window, silent as a cicada in winter. It was unknown what he thought of, but he slightly narrowed his eyes.
Chu Shuangyan didn't dare to breathe loudly. She was terrified when she thought of what happened to her cousin. She hurriedly grabbed the car window and explained, "Fifth Master, I really know I was wrong. I just lost my mind in a moment of anger!"
She was smart for once. She turned to Siyu and said, "Zhou … Sister Siyu! I shouldn't have misunderstood you. I've figured it out now. It's all that bitch Xu Qingwan's fault. It has nothing to do with you. There's nothing between you and A Lin and Best Actor Wen … "
As soon as Chu Shuangyan mentioned Ji Lin and Wen Yuan's names, Siyu felt a terrifying chill run down her spine. It was as if she was being stared at by some terrifying beast. Her body trembled. Before she could turn around to look, she heard a kind voice behind her. "Oh, Ji Lin and — — Wen Yuan? Is there anything else? "
Chu Shuangyan saw that Fifth Master Lu was finally paying attention to her. She hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes. I know Sister Siyu and Huanyi's president only have an ordinary business relationship. I was wrong and spoke without thinking. I won't be so reckless next time, Fifth Master …"
Fifth Master Lu raised his eyebrows. Although he was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes. "And Lu Xingzhou, hmm?"
Si Yu felt Fifth Master Lu's arm tightening around her slender waist. The strength was as if he wanted to break her bones. The car was filled with a dangerous aura of a storm. Although she didn't know why this lunatic suddenly got angry, it didn't stop the alarm in Si Yu's mind from going off. This time, it was her turn to want to cover Chu Shuangyan's mouth that was about to spill everything.
However, Fifth Master Lu gently lifted her chin. She didn't know what method he used, but Siyu couldn't make a sound at all. She could only watch as Chu Shuangyan said a lot of "good things" to her in order to make up for her crime. She couldn't help but shout in her heart:
Chu Shuangyan, you idiot. You can't do anything right, but you're good at ruining things. Stop talking!
After getting the information he wanted, Fifth Master ignored Chu Shuangyan's shouts and directly ordered his subordinates to drive the car away. He didn't know when, but Siyu was back on his lap. The little girl felt his anger and very obediently curled up into a ball. This time, she didn't dare to resist. Fifth Master Lu stroked her cold long hair and smiled faintly.
There was no hurry. One account at a time, he would settle it slowly!
Chu Shuangyan, who was left standing in place, stood in a daze for a while. When her driver came to pick her up, she was still a little in disbelief.
She, she had retreated from Fifth Master Lu's presence? She was actually still alive and well?!
At this time, the driver asked her where she was going. Chu Shuangyan originally wanted to go back to the Chu family first and cry to her parents about today's thrilling experience. However, on second thought, if Fifth Master Lu really sent someone to inform her father and tell him all those stupid things she had done, then what greeted her when she returned home would probably not be consolation, but a scolding.
With this thought, she didn't dare to go home. Instead, she said, "Go to the Ji family's mansion. I'll go find A Lin."
Chu Shuangyan remembered how intimate Siyu and Fifth Master Lu were just now. She thought that perhaps Siyu could help her plead for mercy. However, she didn't have Siyu's contact information, so she could only go find Ji Lin.
However, at this moment, the Ji family was also not peaceful. Ji Lin was urged to come back by the Duan Rulan with a few phone calls. When he stepped into the house, he was a little reluctant.
Ever since he went to the entertainment industry, he rarely set foot in this house. This house was cold and impersonal. All the bad memories from his childhood were hidden here. If it wasn't for the Duan Rulan forcing him, he really didn't want to come back.
Ji Lin didn't forget that it was his biological mother who wanted to withdraw her investment and force his sister to leave!
That incident had always buried a knot in Ji Lin's heart. He didn't understand. If the Duan Rulan didn't want to cause trouble for the Ji family because of Siyu's identity, he could have just stayed away from her and ignored her. Why did he have to do something as extreme as withdrawing his investment?
However, when Ji Lin walked into the living room and saw another person sitting opposite the Duan Rulan, his expression suddenly turned cold.
"A Lin, you're finally back. What's wrong? Why are you pulling a long face?" The Duan Rulan smiled and waved at Ji Lin like a loving mother. She said kindly, "Come and sit down. This is a friend I met by chance, Miss Xu Xu Qingwan. I remember that the two of you worked together before, so you should be friends."
Ji Lin walked over silently but didn't sit next to the Duan Rulan. He chose an armchair and sat down. When he looked at Xu Qingwan, his handsome face frowned and he asked in a deep voice, "Why are you in my house?"
"A Lin, how can you talk to a guest like that?" The Duan Rulan was a little displeased with Ji Lin's cold attitude.
"It's okay. I'm the one who suddenly came to visit." Xu Qingwan pulled her hair and smiled politely. "Auntie Lan, don't blame Brother Ji. He worked so hard filming the show and then rushed home. I'm sure he's exhausted."
Ji Lin remained silent and only coldly observed Xu Qingwan with a guarded expression. He didn't know what had happened. His mother was suddenly so friendly to Xu Qingwan and even invited her home as a guest, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.
As expected, the Duan Rulan showed a little concern for his recent situation and casually brought up the topic. "A Lin, you're the heir of the Ji family. Even if you enter a big dye vat like the entertainment industry, you have to remember to keep yourself clean. You mustn't be too close with those shady people."
