When a person is in despair, the first person who comes to mind is probably the person they care about most.
Just as she closed her eyes in exhaustion, the force binding her suddenly loosened.
The curtains were pulled open a crack.
"Sister, you're not wary enough."
That familiar voice instantly drained all of Meng's strength.
She collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"Lu Chengzhou, you bastard..."
Tears welled up instantly.
"You! You, you..."
Lu Chengzhou, like her, sat on the ground.
Sister Meng raised her fist, intending to punch him a couple of times, but slowly released it the moment she touched him.
She threw herself into his arms.
Lu Chengzhou gently patted her shoulder.
"Actually, you should have thought that you need to scan your face to enter and exit the manor. Unless it's a party, unauthorized people can't get in."
"Then why did you scare me!"
Lu Chengzhou sighed softly.
Of course, he couldn't say that it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision.
I had no choice but to quickly change the subject.
"Meng Wanyu shouldn't be at the manor, right?"
Sister Meng looked up and punched him.
Since she's already here, why not scare her a little?
It's one thing to scare her, but the first person she asked wasn't whether she was alright, but her sister!
Lu Chengzhou added, "If she's still here, I have to leave immediately."
Sister Meng: "So, what are you here for?"
Lu Chengzhou thought for a moment and said, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Sister Meng stood there, stunned.
Is there still a difference between the truth and lies?
Lu Chengzhou: "I came here to seek refuge."
As he spoke, he handed over a pack of tissues.
"The truth is..."
He kept us in suspense very well.
For a moment, all of Sister Meng's attention was on him.
And then, I started to feel inexplicably uneasy.
"I'm here to find a change of clothes."
Lu Chengzhou's words successfully angered her.
"Lu Chengzhou, you really are a bastard." Sister Meng said through gritted teeth, standing up abruptly, her face returning to its icy expression: "Since you're here to find clothes, you can leave now. Don't bother seeing me out!"
Compared to Meng Wanyu, her older sister was more serious.
She can't stand being teased.
Ironically, it was this seriousness and formality that made her so charming.
Lu Chengzhou had no choice but to apologize: "Actually, what I just said was also a lie."
Sister Meng glared at him angrily, but stopped chasing him away.
What is the truth?
"I'm embarrassed to tell the truth."
He brushed it off with a single sentence.
Even Sister Meng couldn't help but praise him as a master.
Perhaps Lu Chengzhou had considered his current situation before he came.
So he offered, "To show my sincerity, I'll perform a magic trick for you, sister."
Sister Meng frowned as she looked at him.
He put his arm around her waist, trapping her between the desk and the office chair once again.
Then, he blew a breath into her ear.
In a flash, a small flower appeared on the tip of her hair.
He picked the flower and handed it to her.
"Flowers are given to beautiful women."
Just as Sister Meng reached out to catch it, he shook the flower slightly.
What was originally just a single flower transformed into a bouquet in the brief moment she was distracted.
"When everything is in full bloom, it is spring."
He placed the flowers in her arms, his smile gentle and captivating.
……
Sister Meng always thought that she was past the age of being deceived by men's little tricks.
But now that I think about it, perhaps she overestimated herself.
Just a second ago, she was so angry with Lu Chengzhou that she was about to go crazy, but the next second she burst into laughter through her tears.
"Lu Chengzhou, you really are a bastard."
She took the expensive roses from the table and put the cheap plastic flowers inside.
This crystal vase is probably the first time it has ever held such inexpensive flowers.
"Tell me, how long do you plan to stay here?"
Sister Meng didn't think he could stay with her forever.
Besides, my sister will probably be back tonight.
When that time comes, the first thing she will do is investigate the manor's surveillance footage; discovering Lu Chengzhou is only a matter of time.
here……
This is no ordinary danger.
Lu Chengzhou sat lazily on the sofa, leisurely sipping her fine tea.
"That depends on how long my sister wants me to stay here."
"you……"
Sister Meng really couldn't stand his glib tongue.
She snorted and said, "Then I'll tell you to never leave, can you do that?"
Lu Chengzhou laughed and said, "Who knows?"
"Be serious."
"Okay, I think I'll have to leave before Meng Wanyu comes back."
Lu Chengzhou suppressed his smile and put down his teacup.
"I think my sister wouldn't want to see me spend the rest of my life in a cage either, would she?"
What Sister Meng didn't expect was that he understood his situation very well and had an accurate judgment about the future.
It is indeed possible that the younger sister would build an exquisite cage to keep him.
Then, Miss Jiang is also a huge threat...
They might end up hurting each other.
Sister Meng clearly didn't want to see that scene, and most importantly, she didn't want Lu Chengzhou to be captured by two fanatics.
His glib tongue is certainly annoying, but it's better than him being a prisoner.
Have you been eating well lately?
Sister Meng noticed that he seemed to have lost some weight.
"I'm afraid you haven't been eating or sleeping well?"
Lu Chengzhou was too embarrassed to say that he was living a carefree life, but he had been staying up late playing games, which made him look haggard. He could only remain silent and nod.
Sister Meng sighed: "There's a bed over there, you can go and sleep for a while. I'll call you when dinner is ready."
She got up and walked outside.
As Lu Chengzhou watched her retreating figure, he inexplicably thought to himself that the scene between the robber and the icy beauty was strangely captivating.
Unfortunately, I'm not bad enough.
Otherwise, they'll just keep acting until the very end...
cough cough cough.
No, no.
He quickly dismissed his rogue and perverted thoughts.
……
It started raining outside in the evening.
