Chapter – 78
Chasing After Her
“Go somewhere with me, and I’ll let go,” Lu Li said calmly.
Mu Wanwan only wanted to leave this embarrassing place as soon as possible. Without thinking, she agreed.
“I agree, okay?”
Lu Li’s lips curved up in satisfaction. The strong arm around her waist loosened. Mu Wanwan quickly stood up and walked out of the banquet hall with a calm expression.
Lu Li followed closely behind her. His long, powerful legs moved steadily, and soon his tall figure disappeared into the dark night.
“Fu Dong, who is that girl? It looks like she has a close relationship with Lu Li.” Fu Yuan looked confused as he turned to his son.
This question was also what everyone else was curious about.
Noticing that the people around him were secretly listening, Fu Dong smiled mysteriously and whispered a few words into Fu Yuan’s ear.
Fu Yuan’s tiger-like eyes widened slightly. “Really?”
That kid Lu Li already has a girlfriend?
Why hadn’t his brother-in-law mentioned this before?
Fu Dong nodded with a smile.
An Yao smiled gently. “It’s fine.”
“Sister An Yao, don’t argue with my brother. It’s all Mu Wanwan’s fault. She’s the one who keeps seducing my brother. Don’t worry, I’ll only recognize you as my sister-in-law,” Lu Ziqing comforted her.
At a moment like this, the more you say, the more mistakes you make.
In her mind, the scene kept replaying—Lu Li leaving without even turning his head, following Mu Wanwan. The anger in her chest almost swallowed all her reason.
Lu Ziqing’s voice behind her pulled her back to her senses.
An Jianli had a smile on his face, but deep down he looked down on these people. When Lu Li was here, why didn’t they ask? Now that he had left, they were suddenly so concerned.
Not far away, An Yao heard their conversation. Her manicured fingers clenched tightly. Her sharp nails dug into her palm, yet she felt no pain.
An Jianli’s expression softened a little, but he did not continue the topic.
“I don’t really know about the younger generation’s matters. As elders, we shouldn’t interfere too much,” An Jianli said casually.
“Sister An Yao, are you really okay?” Lu Ziqing asked carefully when she saw that An Yao could still smile.
The people around them looked confused as they watched the father and son speak in riddles.
“Yes, President An. Many of us really think your daughter and President Lu are a perfect couple. What’s going on with President Lu?” someone else asked.
“Sister An Yao!”
An Yao held her arm and smiled even more brightly.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine. Men, before marriage, are always attracted by something new. It’s understandable.”
“President An, President Lu seems very close to the deputy chief editor of M·E,” a group CEO who was close to An Jianli asked carefully.
Hearing this, Lu Ziqing felt even more that Mu Wanwan could not compare to An Yao. Sister An Yao was so gentle and generous. Why was her brother so obsessed with Mu Wanwan?
An Yao quickly calmed herself. When she turned around, the gentle smile returned to her face.
“That’s not how it works, President An. Your An family and the Lu family have been close friends for many years. Miss An is one of the top socialites in S City. She and President Lu are truly a match made in heaven,” said a fat, big-eared middle-aged man with a flattering tone.
On a quiet path, the streetlights gave off a warm yellow glow.
On the cobblestone road, the clear sound of footsteps echoed.
Mu Wanwan lifted her skirt and walked quickly ahead. When she heard footsteps chasing after her, she walked even faster.
Soon, Lu Li caught up. His long, jade-like hand opened and held her fair little hand. He spread her fingers apart and interlocked them with his.
