NovelEnglishPhone Call
When Shi Lu saw Yuan Shu coming over, he remembered that he had put so much effort into acting just now, but it was all in vain. Thus, he turned his head away unhappily.
Yuan Shu felt that he was acting a little strange, but couldn’t be bothered to guess what the young master was thinking. She said, “Let’s go home.”
With that, she turned around and got into the car without caring if Shi Lu followed her or not.
Shi Lu was now afraid of Yuan Shu after being drowned in the water in the morning, so he followed Yuan Shu without saying a word.
Chu Mei stood in front of the small window on the second floor and witnessed everything. She became even more certain that Shen Lu and Yuan Shu were having an affair.
Yuan Shu found Shen Lu so quickly. Shen Lu could leave whenever he wanted, but she still had to wake up early and work until late at night every day.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShen Lu obtained this role due to his powerful connections, just like her. Why did Shen Lu get to be taken care of by the director and the entire production team had to follow his orders? Just based on the fact that his sugar mama was richer and more powerful than her sugar daddy?
Chu Mei’s manager came over and happened to see Yuan Shu leaving with Shi Lu.
“What’s their relationship? Could it be that Shen Lu is a kept man, so that’s why his resources are so good?”
“What do you mean?” Chu Mei suddenly turned around and looked at her manager gloomily.
The manager was shocked by her reaction and realized that he had hit Chu Mei’s sore spot. He hurriedly waved his hand and explained, “No, no, no. Sister Chu, I didn’t mean that. I didn’t mean you…”
“Your bonus for this month is gone.” Chu Mei rolled her eyes at her manager and ignored him.
The manager could only leave the lounge and accept his bad luck.
Shi Lu followed Yuan Shu back to the Shi family obediently. He was also curious about what had happened to the Shi family that made Yuan Shu interfere in his matters.
Yuan Shu was also worried. She vaguely remembered that the book said that the Shi family had a total of four children. Other than her husband, Shi Xiao, whom she had never met before, the second son, Shi Lu, and the fourth son, Shi Bin, there was also a girl, Shi Le.
Yuan Shu had a headache. From the two young masters she had interacted with up to now, she felt that the Shi family was very strange. They didn’t have a strong sense of family honor and were not as obedient as the children she had taught in the past.
Their education had a long way to go. She should understand the personalities of these children better.
The two of them were fine on the way home, but the Shi family’s villa was busy for the entire afternoon.
As soon as Yuan Shu entered, the maid welcomed her.
“Mr. Li Ci is back. His secretary said if you have time tonight, please call him back.”
Who was Li Ci? Yuan Shu didn’t remember this person.
“Mr. Li Ci is President Shi’s good friend. President Shi has helped him before,” the bodyguard holding Yuan Shu’s things suddenly said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYuan Shu nodded at the bodyguard and said, “I understand. You’re the one who followed Shi Xiao for five years, right? What’s your name?”
“My name is Zhou Yan, Madam,” the bodyguard replied respectfully.
Yuan Shu nodded and noted down this name before asking the maid to call Li Ci back.
Seeing that he had nothing to do, Shi Lu went upstairs and planned to return to his room to rest. Before filming, he only dried himself and changed his clothes. He didn’t have time to shower at all. His skin was itchy and painful, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Secretary Li Ci went straight to the point after picking up the phone. “Hello, Madam. I’m Mr. Li Ci’s secretary, Irene. Are you free tomorrow night at six o’clock? Mr. Li Ci and Madam Li Ran want to invite you to dinner. The address is Vienna Hotel.”
Yuan Shu hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
After Yuan Shu put down the phone, she realized that Zhou Yan was still following behind her and couldn’t help but ask, “Is there anything else?”
Zhou Yan nodded. “Madam, since you agreed to Mr. Li Ci’s invitation, if it’s convenient, please bring President Shi’s secretary. I’ll help you contact her. She’s more familiar with Mr. Li Ci.”
Zhou Yan paused and was about to say something when he was interrupted by a phone ring.
“Hello?” Yuan Shu picked up the phone and heard a gentle but ingratiating female voice.
“Yuan Shu, it’s Mom. Recently, our family’s funds have been a little tight, and we’ve encountered difficulties in exporting. You’re going to eat with Mr. Li tomorrow, right? You’re still young, so there are many things you don’t understand. Why don’t you let your father accompany you? You can also help our family build a bridge and get to know Mr. Li.”
