Looking back, Lu Luochen's gloomy face instantly made Wen Minhao soften. He staggered and bumped into the rear - view mirror.
Lu Luochen pulled Wen Sining over and took off his coat to drape it over her shoulders.
"Get in the car."
Wen Sining grabbed the collar in surprise and looked at Lu Luochen, who was clearly annoyed.
She thought he was about to leave, but unexpectedly he came back. She had thought too badly of him.
Looking back three times at every step, Wen Sining got into the car.
"Mr. Lu, let me tell you..." Wen Minhao straightened his back and walked up to Lu Luochen, trying to be familiar. As he was usually very lazy, he reached out his hand and wanted to put it on Lu Luochen's shoulder.
"Can you explain your behavior just now?" Lu Luochen shrugged his left shoulder down and naturally avoided the touch.
His arm missed, and Wen Minhao's fingers grabbed at the air. Embarrassedly, he could only put his hands on both sides of his legs.
"Mr. Lu, you've been deceived by her. She doesn't look like this at all, and she's not a fool."
Seeing Wen Minhao's mysterious look, the disgust in Lu Luochen's eyes became more obvious. He distanced himself from Wen Minhao and ignored his words.
No reaction?
Wen Minhao thought he hadn't made himself clear, so he took a big step forward again. He was not as tall as Lu Luochen. Standing beside him, he looked like a chick and could only look up at him and move closer on his own initiative.
"Don't be deceived by Wen Sining's appearance. Although she usually acts like a fool, she has a lot on her mind. And there are actually no scars on her face. It's all her disguise. You've all been deceived by her. There's a reason why she came to the Lu family willingly."
Having blurted out all the words pent - up in his heart, Wen Minhao looked at Lu Luochen smugly.
There was no big change in his expression. Lu Luochen's sharp eyes penetrated Wen Minhao and looked at the car behind him. "If you have time to focus on others, focus on yourself first. Make sure you have no problems before you see if you're qualified to discuss others."
Wen Minhao was inexplicably lectured. He still had something to say, but Lu Luochen didn't give him any chance to speak.
Seeing Lu Luochen walking farther and farther away, Wen Minhao was unwilling. He couldn't stand the backer Wen Sining had found. Without Lu Luochen, Wen Sining would be like a harmless little ant in his hands.
He quickened his steps and boldly blocked Lu Luochen who was about to get in the car.
"It seems that Mr. Wen didn't understand what I said." Lu Luochen's tone was full of impatience.
By this time, Wen Minhao was fearless. He grabbed the door handle and pulled the door open without saying a word.
Wen Sining was so surprised that she drew her legs back onto the seat. Hugging her knees with both hands and feet, she shrank shivering into the corner.
"Mr. Wen." Lu Luochen looked at Wen Minhao with slight anger.
This roar finally brought Wen Minhao back to his senses from his anger. Looking at the serious - faced Lu Luochen in front of him, he shrank his neck in fear and slowly moved away from the car door.
The marks left by the feather duster on his body hadn't faded yet. Looking at Lu Luochen's expression, he couldn't even imagine what kind of violent reaction Wen Shiqian would have if he found out.
"Mr. Lu, actually..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Luochen ignored his existence, bent down to get in the car, leaving only the smell from the car's exhaust.
Wen Minhao swallowed his saliva and kicked at the car that was moving away in the distance.
"Damn it! He deserves to be deceived!" Cursing at the air, Wen Minhao angrily got into his car.
The Maybach stopped in front of the Lu family mansion. The driver got out of the car and opened the door.
Wen Sining secretly glanced at Lu Luochen's reaction. After thinking for a while in her heart, she decided to wait for him to get out of the car first.
"Aren't you getting out?"
Lu Luochen, who had just got out of the car, turned around and looked down at Wen Sining in the car.
Wen Sining was holding the seat - belt, and her thumb was rubbing the pattern on it. She looked up blankly at Lu Luochen outside the car.
The driver was very observant. He walked around and opened the door on the other side.
"Madam, we're home."
It would be too exaggerated to stay in the car any longer. Wen Sining quickly unbuckled her seat - belt and got out, clutching the suit jacket on her shoulders.
In the yard, Uncle Bai had noticed the Maybach as soon as it stopped at the door. After watching the whole process, he covered his mouth and excitedly ran into the house.
Wen Sining followed behind Lu Luochen. At first, she stared at his heels, and then her gaze lifted to the back of his head.
He seemed a bit special tonight!
She couldn't tell what was strange, but this feeling was completely different from when they first met.
While walking, Wen Sining suddenly bumped her forehead into a hard object.
Lu Luochen turned around and poked his finger on her forehead. Pushing Wen Sining back with his fingertip until there was some distance between them, he then let go of his finger.
That's it?
Seeing that Lu Luochen said nothing and just walked forward, Wen Sining shrugged helplessly.
Entering the living room, the old master was sitting on the sofa kindly.
"Did you come back together?"
Lu Luochen paused his movement of changing shoes. He looked up at Wen Sining beside him, who was also surprised.
Seeing them looking at each other, the old master's smile on his lips became even brighter. He even rubbed the walking stick in his palm excitedly.
After putting on his slippers, Lu Luochen walked inside.
"Have you eaten outside?" the old master asked curiously.
Wen Sining looked at Lu Luochen and shook her head. "We met at the crossroads."
He had taken the initiative to help her tonight, and she considered this as a repayment.
Wen Sining knew clearly that Lu Luochen only had his first love in his heart. Sooner or later, their relationship would end, and they would each return to their own lives.
During their time together, if he was willing to offer an olive branch, she would respond friendly.
The smile disappeared from his face. The old master shifted his disappointed gaze to Lu Luochen. "Really?"
"We just met at the crossroads. You're over - thinking." Lu Luochen replied.
Since the parties involved had given an answer, the old master had no more interest in fantasizing.
"You're both young. You can communicate more about things." The old master glanced at Lu Luochen.
The words from the day before yesterday were still in his mind. Lu Luochen naturally understood what the old master meant. He looked at Wen Sining and said again, "I'll go upstairs first."
Hearing his distant tone, the old master sighed deeply. "Come on, Sining. Come and talk to me."
"Okay." Wen Sining walked to the old master playfully.
Walking on the stairs, Lu Luochen stopped halfway and looked back at the sofa. Wen Sining's gentle expression and smile lingered in his mind and couldn't be dispelled. Then Wen Minhao's words also came to his mind.
"Scars on her face?" Lu Luochen murmured to himself, thinking of the small mountain village in Lincheng countryside that day.
He strode back to his room and directly pushed open the bathroom door. There was some ointment on the sink. Lu Luochen reached out and picked it up, then opened the lid.
