"For you, I can be silly." Lu Qianqian smiled through her tears.
"I think you're too silly. That's something your father left for you. Guard it well, my lady." Lin Mu'an left with Lu Qianqian.
"But, do you really not want to see Auntie? She..."
"There's nothing to see, " Lin Mu'an said coldly."I don't have much feelings for her. Besides, if she's really innocent, the old man won't mistreat her. At least, he'll drag her out of the fire pit."
Lu Qianqian thought that she must have been possessed.
"Half of my mother is yours."
"She already is. You don't have to tell me." The two of them slowed down as they walked on the streets of London. They were in a foreign country and it was beautiful. Lin Mu'an didn't want to waste his energy on some things.
As the two of them walked hand in hand, Lin Mu'an suddenly thought of something."Even if you don't have anyone to look for in the future, don't call Xiao Qi. Did you forget that she's pregnant?"
"I thought the great CEO was tight-lipped." Lu Qianqian snorted.
"He was warning me to keep a close eye on my fiancée and do what a man should do, to not always make you feel insecure."
To be honest, Lin Muan admired Sheng Xiao. He had such a powerful empire, yet he could see through the most delicate feelings. From this, it showed that Sheng Xiao's sincerity toward Mu Qiqi was limitless.
"In the future, when you encounter any problems, do you remember who you should call?"
Lu Qianqian hugged Lin Muan's waist on the street and buried her head in his arms."I got it."
"Is it because you're overseas? You're so bold..." Lin Mu'an wanted to tease her a little more, but his phone rang.
Lin Mu'an looked at the caller ID with a complex expression. He appeared stunned for a few seconds before he picked up."Grandfather."
"Once you're back from London, come home."
Lin Mu'an was silent.
"Don't worry, I won't tie you up."
Lin Mu'an nodded."I got it."
"I was going to sleep at a hotel in London with you, but I think I should go back to China first. I took a leave of absence."
"Okay." Lu Qianqian nodded obediently.
Lu Qianqian had always loved her mother since she was young. If her mother wasn't around one day, she would be devastated. However, to Lin Mu'an, having a mother or not had no difference. He was raised by a grandfather, so she really shouldn't force her thoughts on him.
"After I return to Jianchuan, I'll go to the Lin family. You can go back and handle your business. Don't worry, I'll use a man's way to have a good talk with Grandfather."
Even though Lu Qianqian was worried, she still respected Lin Mu'an's decision in the end.
It seemed like there was a silver lining.
..
The next morning, Ling Cheng.
Song Bozhi had already thought of all kinds of coincidental encounters he could have with Lu Qianqian, but he didn't expect the person who represented the Lu Corporation at the research institute to not be Lu Qianqian at all, but the new Vice President.
Was it because he wasn't detailed enough that he and Lu Qianqian missed each other perfectly once again? What happened to one trap after another?
Actually, Song Bozhi's calculations weren't bad, but he didn't expect women to be willing to do anything for love.
"President Song, I have already investigated. The CEO of the Lu Corporation has been in the UK for the past few days. It should be because of the Lin family's matter."
"It's because of men again, " Song Bozhi said as he rubbed his acupuncture points."Then let's wait for the next exciting encounter. Anyway, I have plenty of time now. I can afford to waste it. It's time to find a reliable person to insert into the Lu Corporation. If there is wrong information in the future, you don't have to come to work anymore."
The assistant was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly agreed and left.
Were all the people around Sheng Xiao so hot-blooded and impulsive?
Song Bozhi was full of interest.
..
Late at night, at the Lin family home.
Grandfather Lin was sitting on the sofa with his unsmiling face. It was very quiet around him, and there was no one else around.
Lin Mu'an couldn't remember how long it had been since he had stepped into this family home. He had once sworn to himself that he would definitely do well for Grandfather Lin, but now... he was somewhat lacking in confidence.
"You're here." The old man sat upright on the sofa, his voice cold.
"Grandfather..."
"I found out about your parents' divorce. I've already asked your aunt to clean up the mess that your father left. I'll pretend that I don't have a son, but you..." the old man suddenly looked at Lin Mu'an seriously."I'm old, especially after what happened to your father. I feel that a person's energy is so limited."
"You're my grandson and a member of the Lin family. I can't be enemies with you forever. One of us has to admit defeat.
"So, come back. I won't interfere with your enrollment into the police academy. Think about it yourself. If you want to rely on your own abilities, when will you be able to reach the position you want? Since I'm still here and can still speak, I can pave the way for you. If you want to become a police officer, then go ahead.
"What else can I do..."
After saying that, the old man got up from the sofa and returned to his room, he took a look at Lin Mu'an."That girl, bring her back when you have time. Let me see how stupid she is. She doesn't even know her own abilities, yet she dares to stand up for others? Thirty million pounds. She wants to use half of the Lu Corporation to pay off your mother's debt?"
So, the old man knew about it, and that was why his heart softened.
"I'm telling you first, it's just a meeting. No other meaning behind it."
The old man snorted and turned to return to his room.
Lin Mu'an felt as if he had been hit by a lottery ticket. This surprise came too suddenly. However, he would have to wait for his vacation days before he could meet her. He had to report back to school tomorrow morning.
Lin Mu'an had no idea that he was in danger. Grandfather Lin had an internal conflict, but there was a bigger external threat.
All in all, after experiencing these things, Lin Mu'an and Lu Qianqian knew that it was even more impossible for them to separate.
However, this matter had come to an end and Mu Qiqi didn't know. Sheng Xiao had kept it a secret until Lu Qianqian called. Only then did she know that such an incident had happened in the past two days.
Mu Qiqi was not happy about being kept in the dark."Why didn't you tell me?"
"Tell you? So you can buy a ticket to London in the middle of the night and end up on the streets of London with Lu Qianqian?" Sheng Xiao snorted coldly.
Mu Qiqi lowered her head guiltily. That kind of action was not beneath her ways, but that was before she was pregnant.
