When I was a child, Aunt Lu saved me once, and she has always treated me well. I really cannot refuse Lu Xiao.
But I won't let him have it easy.
He wants me to return to the obedient days of high school when I let him manipulate me, but I will cut off that thought.
I arranged to meet Lu Xiao after work and then had someone take them both out.
As I watched the office door close, I took out my phone and started a video call with Hall.
Hall answered quickly, and his handsome face soon appeared on the screen.
" junior Sister!"
Even through the phone, I could feel Hall's joy.
Attracted by Hall's smile, my emotions calmed in an instant.
I winked at him, "Can you come pick me up after work tonight?"
Hall seemed to be outside; I couldn't see the surroundings, but it was very quiet.
Hall quickly agreed.
Just before I turned off the video, I thought I heard Qin Jiyuan's voice.
What kind of relationship could there be between Hall and Qin Jiyuan?
It was just that we had met once a few days ago.
I raised my hand to rub my temples; it seemed I was so angry that I was hallucinating.
Lu Xiao never expected me to pull such a move.
In the underground parking lot, his brows looked a bit darker.
He walked up to me, pursing his lips.
"My mom wouldn't want to see him."
I tightened my grip on Hall's hand and leaned my head on Hall's shoulder. "Aunt Lu will like Hall."
Hall smiled at the right moment and stood beside me.
Of course, Aunt Lu would like Hall.
Over the years, Lu Xiao never dared to tell Aunt Lu about our relationship.
For Aunt Lu, how could she refuse to see a child she watched grow up find someone?
Hall might have sensed Lu Xiao's ill intentions, as he tightened his arm around my shoulders, making them ache slightly.
"Baby?" I gently tugged at the corner of his shirt.
Hall was brought back to reality by my call, lowering his head and releasing the arm he had around my shoulders. He then placed his hand on my waist and leaned in to whisper in my ear.
"I'm sorry, junior Sister, I didn't mean to."
Seeing me and Hall whispering to each other, Lu Xiao's facade completely shattered as he slammed the car door shut.
Aunt Lu had prepared a large spread of food at home.
When she saw me come in with Hall, she smiled especially brightly.
"Is this Nannan's boyfriend?"
As she spoke, Aunt Lu took my hand and pulled me to sit beside her.
Aunt Lu is a nurse at a pediatric hospital. If it weren't for her timely intervention when I was a child, noticing that my oxygen mask had fallen off, I might have left this world long ago.
Aunt Lu asked me many questions, ranging from Hall to the details of my life.
My parents divorced early and each formed new families, leaving me in a state of neglect.
Most of the tenderness I felt growing up came from Aunt Lu.
After dinner, Aunt Lu asked Lu Xiao to drive us back.
Lu Xiao changed into a loose casual outfit, a cigarette dangling from his thin lips, leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed, exuding a rebellious air as he raised an eyebrow.
"They drove themselves, so why would I need to give them a ride?"
Lu Xiao's words were laced with sarcasm.
But sarcasm had no effect in front of Hall, who remained unfazed.
Hall smiled gently at Aunt Lu, "Yes, we drove ourselves, no need for a ride."
Unlike Lu Xiao's sarcasm, Hall's sincerity was evident, even in the way he looked at Lu Xiao with a hint of approval.
Lu Xiao felt a surge of frustration, his handsome face contorted in annoyance.
Indeed, sincerity was a powerful weapon.
I couldn't help but laugh.
Aunt Lu tossed aside the handkerchief she was holding and shot Lu Xiao a glare before speaking to Hall.
"Alright, be careful on your way back."
