Lu Weihua is just a womanizer.
If there was soone better than Tian Xiang, his eyes wouldn’t be fixed over here.
But there isn’t!
Of course, he also knows that there’s no way the two of them could ever be together in this lifeti.
Yet he can’t help but think about her and go see her in his mind.
Moreover, that fool Tian Xiang, what kind of taste does she have, actually fancying ng Cheng’an?
The two of them are even going to parks together now, looks like they’re dating.
Is she not aware of the ng Family’s situation?
In the past, the ng Family wasn’t doing well, but they could still manage.
But now, Mr. ng has been taken away, and with the year’s end approaching, he hasn’t returned.
In such situations, it’s usually bad news.
The two of them won’t co to any good end.
Does Tian Xiang want to go to the countryside with ng Cheng’an?
Does she really like his face that much, willing to be with him like this?
She probably hasn’t tasted the hardships of rural life and has no idea about the situation.
She’s so beautiful, yet marrying soone like ng Cheng’an with such a poor background, she’d imdiately beco a target for the village bullies and hooligans.
Thinking about Tian Xiang being preyed upon, Lu Weihua felt restless within.
Maybe that’s another path—wait until she’s living a tough life in the countryside, then appear to help her, and so things will fall into place.
Even if not, force is an option.
A married woman, whose life has smoothed out her sharp edges, shouldn’t be as feisty as she is now.
Lu Weihua held the chopsticks, staring dreamily at Tian Xiang’s back, completely ignoring ng Cheng’an, who was radiating coldness with eyes like icy daggers.
It was the girl next to Lu Weihua who sensed sothing was wrong and tugged at him, asking: "What are you looking at?"
Why are you staring in one direction?
The girl also turned her head to look where Lu Weihua was gazing and t ng Cheng’an’s chilly gaze. Her heart skipped a beat, and she asked Lu Weihua, "Do you know them?"
Those two, we saw them in the park before.
The man is tall and handso, and the girl is a rare beauty. She rembered them at a glance.
Lu Weihua snapped back to reality, instinctively lowering his head, "I don’t know them."
"If you don’t know them, why are you staring at that girl? Didn’t you notice that man was not happy? His gaze is quite frightening."
Lu Weihua was taken aback; his mind was all on Tian Xiang, automatically overlooking so things.
He peeked over at ng Cheng’an, froze for a mont, and then quietly continued eating.
For a mont, Lu Weihua was also a bit scared.
Even though there were several tables between them, one on the left and the other on the right, quite far apart.
Still, inexplicably, there was a sense of unease and palpitations.
He rembered the ti when he was ten years old and got pinned down and bitten by ng Cheng’an; that guy had the sa look in his eyes, as if he would eat him alive.
He only glanced over a few more tis, what’s the big deal?
Lu Weihua got angry too.
Damn it, how dare he glare at .
Elsewhere, Tian Xiang was happily putting stir-fried pork in a bun, entirely unaware that ng Cheng’an, sitting across, had not touched his chopsticks for quite a while.
When she had eaten her fill, nearly finishing the at dish, she noticed the vinegar cabbage side dish had hardly been touched.
Tian Xiang: "Why aren’t you..."
As she spoke, she looked up at him, and her voice caught in her throat.
ng Cheng’an had a look in his eyes that was indifferent, proud, filled with warning and disdain.
Tian Xiang froze, wanting to follow his gaze and look back, but ng Cheng’an blinked his refined eyes and smiled lightly, asking her, "What’s wrong?"
He had returned to his pure and gentle deanor, like a refined gentleman.
So handso!
Tian Xiang was instantly captivated and smiled, saying, "Eat up. Look at , I’m about to finish it all."
ng Cheng’an replied softly, "Okay."
After they finished eating and left with their stuff, Lu Weihua and his female companion had already left so ti ago.
It was still quite early, just past twelve.
ng Cheng’an: "I’ll walk you ho."
Tian Xiang: "No need, you should go ho and rest early."
It’s the weekend today, there are a lot of people at the shared courtyard, Tian Xiang was afraid that ng Cheng’an would be seen, and it would get back to Hu Honglian, stirring up family trouble.
On one side is family, and on the other is the person she likes, Tian Xiang just wants things to transition smoothly, giving each other ti to gradually adapt.
ng Cheng’an didn’t insist, standing by the roadside watching Tian Xiang leave.
After his lover’s silhouette disappeared, he rode his bike, not heading straight to the resettlent area, but rather followed the riverside path upwards.
He had just noticed, Lu Weihua and the girl were heading this way, whether to watch a movie or shop was unclear.
ng Cheng’an searched as he went, eventually finding Lu Weihua’s bicycle at the entrance of a mall.
This place is not far from Red Five Street Central Square, close to both the family compound and the resettlent area.
ng Cheng’an thought for a mont, then turned his bike towards the resettlent area.
A dozen minutes later, a man wearing a hat and a big black scarf, with a thug-like deanor, ca over, glancing around. Taking advantage of a mont when no one was looking, he took away Lu Weihua’s bike.
The man carried the bike to a nearby alley; then he took out so repair tools from his clothes, fiddled with the bicycle’s front wheel for a while, then casually placed it back as if nothing happened.
After finishing, the man, sweating from his forehead, pushed his bike down another deserted alley.
There, ng Cheng’an was waiting for him.
"I’ve done as you asked, loosened the front wheel; it shouldn’t be long before it cos loose.
Brother, the roads are busy today, if anything happens, you can’t bla . I’m just following orders because you forced ."
ng Cheng’an looked at him, his long, cold eyes showing a trace of a smile.
"If you do it right, how could you be blad? Keep your mouth shut, don’t be a fool and spill the matter. If anything happens, I’ll handle it. By the way, last ti you sneaked into Widow Jiang’s room, that was you too. How much did Lu Feng pay you..."
Inside the mall not too far away.
Lu Weihua had no idea his bike had been tampered with, busy arguing with his arranged date.
The girl wanted to buy fabric to make clothes, blushing as she asked if it looked good.
Lu Weihua, absent-minded, thinking only of Tian Xiang, no longer wished to pursue this relationship, said nothing looked good.
The girl was smart enough to figure things out quickly and scolded him a few tis.
Lu Weihua also had a bad temper, and with mutual disdain, the girl left the mall straight onto a bus.
Lu Weihua, feeling upset and unwilling to go ho, decided to ride his bike to find an old fla.
Though the other woman was married, her life wasn’t going well.
Lu Weihua used to disdain won already taken, but today, in a foul mood, he just wanted soone to be with.
But as he rode his bike fast, passing along Binjiang Road, the front wheel ca loose, the bike tilted, and he crash-landed against the roadside stone railing, then was thrown out and plunged into the river below.
