Lu Chuanbai narrowed his eyes coldly, and a chill spread around him.
What on earth was Teacher Su up to!
"What's wrong?" Xu Qingqing noticed that Lu Chuanbai was in a strange mood and asked with concern.
Lu Chuanbai showed a gentle smile and shook his head. "It's nothing."
Xu Qingqing thought he didn't want to go shopping anymore. "I'll take the two kids to look at the facial creams first. You can take a rest."
"Okay."
After Xu Qingqing entered the cosmetics store.
Lu Chuanbai's face turned cold. He said to Wang Bo, "Ms. An'an's teacher is hiding behind the two columns in the west. Go and warn her not to follow us anymore."
"Yes."
Su Xiaoyue was hiding behind the column, feeling her pounding heart. Lu Chuanbai's eyes were so sharp. He really gave her a fright just now.
When the time was about right, Su Xiaoyue slowly turned her head, trying to peek at Lu Chuanbai again. But when she turned around, she faced the serious - looking Wang Bo. She let out a scream in fright.
"Ah! Why are you here!"
"I should be asking you, Miss Su. Why are you following us?" Wang Bo was used to dealing with women who chased after Lu Chuanbai. His face was cold.
Wang Bo's tone was sharp, with a hint of threat. "Miss Su, you distracted me just now so that An'an could plead for you. Don't you think it's despicable to deceive a child like this?"
"I didn't..." Su Xiaoyue's face instantly turned ashen. She denied it subconsciously.
"Whether you did or not, I can't check the surveillance. But I still want to advise you, Miss Su. Don't play these little tricks anymore."
"General Manager Lu has already noticed. I think you should know that when our General Manager Lu gets angry, it's really terrifying."
After the threat, Wang Bo made his point and then turned around and left.
Su Xiaoyue's eyes were cold and dark. She stared coldly at Wang Bo's back.
Mind your own business!
Xu Qingqing was choosing a facial cream. She was dazzled as the shop assistant boasted about each product.
After Wang Bo came back, he nodded at Lu Chuanbai, indicating that the matter was taken care of.
"Miss, take a look at this one. It will definitely make your skin... whiter by one degree!"
The shop assistant originally wanted to brag about how amazing the product was and how powerful its effects were.
But when she saw Xu Qingqing's fair and pore - less skin, as smooth as a peeled hard - boiled egg, she couldn't find any way to make it even better. So she could only brag about the whitening effect.
"I don't need to be that white." Xu Qingqing touched her face and picked up an ordinary moisturizing cream. "As long as it can moisturize and protect from the sun."
She only used cosmetics to protect her skin when doing archaeological work.
The shop assistant didn't want to let Xu Qingqing go and wanted to recommend a more expensive skin - care product. "Then let me recommend a moisturizing cream for you..."
"Thank you, no. I'll take this one." Xu Qingqing looked at the ingredient list. It was very clean.
"Ah... okay." The shop assistant replied weakly, smiling bitterly in her heart.
Beautiful people with good skin even save money on skin - care.
After Xu Qingqing chose the facial cream, Lu Chuanbai drove them home.
The two kids got out of the car happily and ran into the house with the snacks they had chosen.
"Thank you for today." Xu Qingqing thanked Lu Chuanbai. After getting out of the car, she didn't expect Lu Chuanbai to get out too.
Xu Qingqing raised her eyebrows. "Do you still have something to do?"
The phone in her bag vibrated. It was a call.
The caller ID was Tang Li.
Lu Chuanbai was very close to Xu Qingqing. When he saw the caller, he frowned and his face turned cold.
Why was this guy calling again!
Xu Qingqing felt inexplicably guilty. She glanced at Lu Chuanbai and covered the receiver to answer the call. "Hello, Tang Li. What's up?"
Lu Chuanbai's eyes were fixed on Xu Qingqing.
Fine, very good. She was even avoiding him.
When the call was connected, Tang Li's voice, which was usually gentle and calm, carried a hint of urgency, as if something big had happened.
"Xu Qingqing, there's news about the White Lotus Sect again. They're planning a tomb - robbing. The destination is a small island between them and Weishan Lake. Do you know it?"
"You mean Weishan Island?" Xu Qingqing murmured. She looked up at Lu Chuanbai. "Do you know it?"
Weishan Island was very famous. It was surrounded by mountains and water, with beautiful scenery. Not long ago, there was news that it was going to be transformed into a resort.
Father Xu even regretted that such a beautiful island was going to be destroyed.
"I know." Lu Chuanbai's voice was a bit deep. "I bought that island and it's being transformed into a resort."
Seeing Lu Chuanbai's casual attitude, as if buying an island was like buying a small gadget, Xu Qingqing let out a soft sigh. Sure enough, the Lu family was rich and powerful.
Since it was Lu Chuanbai's island, she could ask Lu Chuanbai to help with the excavation on the island later.
Xu Qingqing's eyes lit up. "Lu Chuanbai, there's a group of tomb - robbers planning to rob a tomb on Weishan Island. Do you know if there's a tomb under the island?"
Lu Chuanbai slightly raised his phoenix - shaped eyebrows. "After I bought Weishan Island, I handed it over to the construction team. I haven't inspected it on the spot."
"Then you must strengthen the security. Make sure those tomb - robbers don't take advantage of any loopholes!" Xu Qingqing reminded nervously. "Just do me a favor."
"Okay." Lu Chuanbai took a step forward, reached out and snatched Xu Qingqing's phone, hung up her call with Tang Li, and turned off the phone.
"However, you can only choose one between me and Tang Li. Do you want me to help you or do you want him to continue helping you?"
"Give it back to me!" Xu Qingqing glared at him. She thought this guy was being a bit strange. She snatched the phone back but found it was already turned off. "Why did you suddenly hang up my call!"
"He was kind enough to help me. I didn't even say goodbye to him!" Xu Qingqing angrily pressed the phone, trying to turn it on.
"Fine, I won't care then." Lu Chuanbai was about to go back to the car proudly.
"Don't go." Xu Qingqing quickly grabbed him and forced a smile. "I was just joking."
If it weren't for the fact that she still needed Lu Chuanbai to prevent the tomb - robbers, she wouldn't be so humble!
As for Tang Li's call, she would call him back later to explain. Tang Li would surely understand!
"I'm doing this for your own good. Do you really want those tomb - robbers to dig holes all over under your island?" Xu Qingqing struggled to hold Lu Chuanbai's arm.
"I don't care." Lu Chuanbai showed a distant smile and said bluntly, "If you want me to help, you have to pay a price."
"Why!" Xu Qingqing thought it was absurd. "You didn't ask for any reward when Yiyi asked you to help record the program!"
Xu Qingqing angrily glared at Lu Chuanbai. This guy really got carried away!
"Because Yiyi is my son. What are you to me?" Lu Chuanbai said leisurely.
Xu Qingqing's eyelids twitched. The smile on her face almost froze. She took a deep breath and held it in. "So what exactly do you want?"
Lu Chuanbai hooked his lips and smiled wickedly. He pointed at his cheek, making his meaning obvious.
Xu Qingqing covered her chest with both hands and took a step back. She looked at Lu Chuanbai warily and scolded him with a straight face. "Aren't you ashamed? Is it appropriate to do this in broad daylight!"
