Lu Ci was quite certain he hadn’t done anything that might have made him a father. Seeing Su Yao’s flustered deanor, she didn’t look like soone who would cheat on him.
"For a friend." Su Yao replied stiffly, "Didn’t know what to get, so I just bought this."
Lu Ci nodded. He didn’t think much about it and then asked, "I heard Aunt Qi is here?"
"Mm."
"Wanna co over to my place for dinner?" Lu Ci sat on her desk, looking down at her from above, raising his hand to ss up her hair as he spoke.
"No!" Su Yao imdiately refused. "Not going!"
"How about I co over to your place for dinner?"
"..."
"Aunt Qi knows about our thing, right? Even if I perform poorly, Fu Shihan will be there to back up. What are you afraid of?"
Even if it’s worse than Brother Han losing his wife, Lu Ci was oddly confident now.
Su Yao seriously thought for a mont, then shook her head.
"Probably not. My mom ca over to accompany Wanwan this ti."
"What happened to Wanwan??"
Su Yao frowned and said, "Soone has been threatening Wanwan, saying they will do sothing harmful to her. My mom is a bit worried, so she ca over to check on her."
Lu Ci’s expression gradually turned serious, "When did this happen? Who is the threatening person? Did you check?"
"I’m not very clear on the details, but it sounded severe. Wanwan said she doesn’t know when she offended the person, just that she did, and quite thoroughly at that."
"Could it be sothing related to Hua Zheng’s business? Blocking soone’s financial path?"
"Not likely." Su Yao said sertenly, "I even don’t know what they’re working on right now, and there’s been no news that they’re investigating any companies. Who would be so impatient?"
That makes the situation sound quite suspicious.
Su Wanxin grew up with them, her social circle isn’t that big, who else could she have offended?
Usually, offending others is sothing they’d do. Are they sure that this ti, they are not the ones involved?
Lu Ci got so information from Su Yao and after leaving, he called Fu Shihan. As expected, Fu Shihan was clueless about the threats against Su Wanxin.
But after hearing Lu Ci’s story, he had a clearer idea.
Cheng Yao surely wouldn’t have left without reason. The person threatening Su Wanxin is very likely her.
"Have you and Wanxin made up yet?" Lu Ci asked with a laugh after discussing the serious matter. "It’s been over ten days, that’s a record."
"I told you, didn’t I? Not making up."
"Tsk, such words are just for hearing. You think anyone would take it seriously?" Lu Ci would rather believe he’ll never drink again in his life than believe he could completely break away from Su Wanxin.
"Brother Han, don’t say I didn’t warn you, if Lawyer Qi finds out about your breakup, it’s gonna be tough for you later."
Fu Shihan knew this very well without Lu Ci ntioning it.
So he was thinking, should he invite Qi Ran to dinner? If Su Wanxin finds out, what excuse should he use to cover it up?
"I’m planning to go to Su Family’s place for dinner tomorrow. Want to join?" Lu Ci asked with a chuckle.
"No."
"Should I beg you?"
"Fine then."
"No need for thanks, Brother Han. You can just give so money later," Lu Ci spoke very practically. "I have a project on hand, don’t you dare compete with for it."
"I’ve been tight on cash lately."
"Bullshit! What are you possibly short of money for?"
Fu Shihan: "..."
I really am short on cash, why won’t you believe ?
