Unveil Her Secret Identities-Chapter 647: Extra - on Lu Zhizhou ④_1
Chapter 647: Extra Chapter on Lu Zhizhou ④_1
Lu Zhizhou was truly amazed by Lu Qingyi. The girl in front of her was stunningly beautiful, even to the point of being inhumanly gorgeous.
She already looked pretty at such a young age.
However, she seemed aloof, not the easy-going kind.
Lu Qingyi replied with a muted "Hmm."
"I have to leave now, I’m truly sorry."
After saying that, Lu Zhizhou hastily left the Guxiang Residence. She was in great urgency as the necklace she had lost was a gift from He Chenguang and she was deathly afraid of not being able to find it.
As soon as she got outside, she hailed a taxi and headed straight for the airport. She was desperately worried, fearing she wouldn’t be able to find the necklace if she lost it.
Now that they’ve broken up, the necklace was the last memento linked to him. She was terrified she would lose even that.
Thankfully, she found the necklace right at the place where she had lost it. She felt relieved the moment she held the necklace in her hand.
She had been so ruthless in the things she said about He Chenguang, it was unlikely that he would ever show up in her life again.
As soon as Lu Zhizhou recovered her necklace, she received a call from Lu Mojing urging her to return.
She was accustomed to obeying Lu Mojing since childhood. She was well aware that she owed her upbringing to Lu Mojing who had raised her single-handedly. Thus, she always listened to his words.
Lu Zhizhou returned to the door of the private dining room. She took a deep breath, and then opened the door.
"I’m sorry for making you all wait."
Lu Zhizhou opened the door, her breath slightly rough. She spoke with elegance and grace in an apologetic tone.
"No problem at all, Miss Lu, you are still as gentle and beautiful as before."
"Zhizhou is getting prettier as she gets older."
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"What are your plans for coming back home?"
"You found your lost item, right?"
"Zhizhou, my son isn’t successful. Maybe he should try harder."
"..."
As soon as Lu Zhizhou stepped in, voices filled the room with praise for her.
Today’s center of attention was Lu Zhizhou, so naturally many conversations revolved around her.
Lu Zhizhou was always praised in this circle, as these adults had watched her grow up. Since she was little, she was the envy of other parents.
"Now that Zhizhou is back, let’s serve the food."
Lu Mohai broke the silence because of the delay in serving the meal due to Lu Zhizhou’s absence.
Lu Zhizhou glanced around the room and her gaze involuntarily landed on Lu Qingyi. She froze for a moment.
Lu Qingyi was sitting between Xu Boyan and Gu Xiang. This was the woman she had accidentally bumped into. Lu Zhizhou was confused about Lu Qingyi’s relationship with Xu Boyan.
Lu Qingyi appeared quiet and aloof, and seemed quite young.
"Dear uncles, aunts, and elders, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting."
Lu Zhizhou closed the door and apologized in a remorseful tone.
When dealing with her elders, she was always polite, her demeanor very appropriate, just as her father hoped she would be.
"And to all the young masters and ladies here, I’m sorry as well."
She then extended her greetings to the contemporaries present.
"It’s fine, you’ve found your lost item right?"
"As long as nothing is missing."
"It’s a small matter, no need to apologize."
"..."
People began to speak up. After all, it wasn’t a big deal, and Lu Zhizhou had already apologized for causing the delay.
It was natural that Lu Mojing had mentioned her lost item to the crowd.
"Zhizhou, come over here."
There was an empty sseat between Lu Mohai and Lu Mojing. Lu Mojing signalled his daughter to sit.
"Dad, uncle."
Lu Zhizhou responded with a warm smile and then sat down.
"Pour some tea for your uncle."
As soon as Lu Zhizhou sat down, Lu Mojing nudged her arm and signalled her.
Lu Zhizhou understood Lu Mojing’s suggestion. She smiled and then stood up.
"Uncle, let me fill your cup."
Lu Zhizhou had a warm smile on her lips. She lifted the teapot and poured tea for Lu Mohai.
Although she was smiling on the outside, she felt bitter inside.
"Zhizhou, what are your plans after coming back?"
Lu Mohai gazed at the tea in his cup and slowly asked.
"I...I’ll see when the time comes."
Lu Zhizhou gave a soft smile, paused for a moment, then answered.
She wanted to say something, but could not articulate her thoughts.
She had absolutely no interest in family assets and businesses.
"Zhizhou, the family business is considerable. Let your uncle arrange a job for you, it can help you understand company management better."
Lu Mojing slowly suggested, appearing as if he was planning for Lu Mohai, making his words sound very pleasing.
"If possible, I’ll follow my uncle’s advice."
Lu Zhizhou’s chopstick-holding hand paused, then she responded softly.
She looked at Lu Mohai, her smile warm yet seemingly revealing a sense of helplessness.
Lu Mojing nodded in satisfaction. He was very pleased with Lu Zhizhou’s response.
Only by entering the company could she gain a foothold in the core of the Lu Family, and then possibly take control of the family’s assets.
"I’ll arrange it for you in due course."
Lu Mohai replied, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth.
Maybe the members of the Lu Family were by nature gentle. This was true for Lu Mohai, Lu Zhizhou, and even Lu Mojing, to some extent.
"Okay, thank you, uncle."
Lu Zhizhou replied politely and then lowered her head.
This wasn’t the life she wanted, but it seemed she had no choice but to accept it. She felt a deep sense of helplessness.
"What did you lose? Let me take a look. It must be really important."
Lu Mojing looked at Lu Zhizhou and asked.
"No, it’s just a woman’s belonging." freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Lu Zhizhou shook her head and replied softly, gently biting her lips.
Lu Mojing didn’t probe further.
"Go and say hello to Xu Boyan."
Lu Mojing glanced at the next table and instructed.
Establishing a good relationship with Xu Boyan was very important. He hoped his daughter could seize this opportunity.
"Dad..."
Lu Zhizhou looked up, her gaze locking with Lu Qingyi’s. She was momentarily startled and swallowed the words she was about to say.
"Go ahead."
Lu Mojing urged her.
Lu Mohai glanced at Lu Mojing. He knew exactly what was on Lu Mojing’s mind.
Didn’t Lu Mojing hear what was just said?
Xu Boyan was already married.
What did he mean by sending his daughter over now?
Lu Zhizhou bit her lip lightly, then stood up and made her way over, "Aunt Xu, long time no see."
Lu Zhizhou walked over to Xu Boyan, first saying hello to Gu Xiang.
"Xu Boyan, long time no see."
Then, she turned to greet Xu Boyan.
