Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Lu Qianrou Writes a Short Essay for Image Rehabilitation Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Lu Qianrou Writes a Short Essay for Image Rehabilitation —— Admirer.
These simple three words carry a multitude of anings.
The first layer shows that Li Muchen places himself in a humbler position than the young girl, making others feel surprised.
Because in their eyes, whether it is wealth, status, or power and prestige, Li Muchen is at the pinnacle of Jiang City, soone not easily provoked.
Whereas the girl is just an illegitimate daughter who has lost her mother and traveled from the countryside to seek refuge with the Lu Family, a status that is despicable and scorned wherever she goes.
Yet, Li Muchen declared that he is an admirer of Lu Sheng.
Even going as far as introducing himself, without any airs, evidently because of the girl.
Knowing that in previous occasions when Li Muchen was seen, he was always seated in his wheelchair, and from a distance, one could feel a strong sense of oppression from a superior.
The thoughts of those present varied greatly.
As for Lu Youye, no need to say — two words, devastated. He didn’t care about any big shots; anyone coveting his beloved sister were all despicable n.
Fang Hong felt two words too, regret. She had been considering pairing her eldest son with Lu Sheng to close the gap, only to be told upfront that Li Muchen had taken a liking to the young girl.
Whether it’s in terms of height, appearance, temperant, or wealth and status, who in Jiang City could compare with this gentleman before them.
Previously, Li Muchen was disabled, confined to a wheelchair where his son had so advantage by being active. But now that Li Muchen’s legs are cured, even that advantage was gone.
Lin Yi himself didn’t harbor such thoughts towards Lu Sheng.
He instantly liked Lu Sheng from the day before, but it was just a brotherly affection, at most surprised by Li Muchen’s words.
Unexpectedly, this little sister of his good friend was so charming that even a major boss like Li Muchen, who usually stayed away from won, was moved by her.
As for Lu Siyan, he inevitably beca curious about Lu Sheng.
Despite being an illegitimate daughter raised alone by her mother in the countryside, supposedly humble and unassuming, she turned out to be an intellectual genius.
Smart yet low-key, kind and grateful, viewing money lightly—nearly all points that would make Lu Siyan view her in a different light.
… Sister.
The girl is his half-sister—although they hadn’t talked much yet, Lu Siyan felt a natural closeness from the familial bond for the first ti.
“Since we are going to eat, why not go to Lanyin Restaurant? We can head over directly,” Li Muchen said after introducing himself.
Everyone looked up—
Li Muchen’s assistant, sohow, from nowhere, had driven a stretched Lincoln to the curb. Already respectfully standing by with the car door open, welcoming everyone aboard.
It made people acknowledge, not surprisingly, as the most capable person beside the boss. His alertness and efficiency were off the charts.
“Then we shall trouble Mr. Li,” Although Fang Hong felt sowhat nervous seeing Li Muchen, she was, after all, the Mayor’s Wife and had seen nurous high-profile figures.
She quickly regained her composure and boarded the car first with Xiao Yan, followed by Lu Siyan and Lin Yi. Only Lu Youye remained, dragging Lu Sheng along pitifully: “Shengsheng…”
“Get in the car first,” Lu Sheng saw that Lu Youye looked as if a beloved toy had been stolen away from him, reaching out to rub his head, “Be a good brother.”
This phrase instantly revived Lu Youye on the spot.
Right, this Li Muchen said he was Shengsheng’s admirer, which ant Shengsheng wasn’t together with him yet, at most in the pursuit phase.
What he should do now wasn’t to be disheartened, but to take this chance to carefully assess what kind of person Li Muchen really was.
If he really was a major creep as the outside world said, he absolutely couldn’t entrust his beloved sister to him!
Everyone else boarded, and only then did Li Muchen slightly lean forward, carefully placing his hand over the top of the car door to prevent Lu Sheng from accidentally bumping her head as she boarded.
Lu Sheng noticed this, curling her lips into a smile. When boarding, she quietly pinched the man’s other hand as consolation—
A consolation for not being able to be close despite eting.
Li Muchen felt it, a trace of tenderness flashing in his eyes.
Lanyin Restaurant is the most exclusive and expensive restaurant in Jiang City.
The average cost per person is about 4,000, and only the wealthy and esteed can afford to dine there.
Ordinary people couldn’t just decide to go on a whim, as Lanyin Restaurant only accepts custors who have booked at least a month in advance.
Moreover, Lanyin Restaurant is one of the Li Family’s properties, reportedly having a VIP room reserved exclusively for Li Muchen.
In the car, Lu Sheng received a ssage from Huo Yu, just one sentence: [Lu Qianrou has apologized on Weibo and TikTok.]
… Apologized?
Lu Qianrou, that kind of person, taking the initiative to apologize? This was sowhat beyond Lu Sheng’s expectations.
Lu Sheng casually opened Weibo and saw that Lu Qianrou had posted a long essay twenty minutes ago.
[@Qianqianbaby: Hello everyone, I am Lu Qianrou, I am posting this Weibo to apologize to everyone, I am really sorry.]
[Last night, I opened TikTok and found many people liking, following, and comnting on . I realized later everyone thought I was the one who saved a person at the intersection, so they all comnded .]
[I imdiately posted a TikTok to clarify that it wasn’t . But I didn’t expect everyone to think I was being modest. And I didn’t expect, this morning, Mrs. Lin would co to the school with journalists.]
