Chapter 19

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At that time, Tang Wei was a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers. She rejected Song Tianwen and even called him uncle to his face. “You are older than me, so I can’t like you.”

Who knew why she was so confident at that time? Song Tianwen didn’t even say that he liked her, but she made it seem like he had confessed.

However, Song Tianwen’s face was terrifyingly gloomy after that. A few days later, he went abroad.

At that time, the more important reason why Tang Wei spoke like that was that she was very close to the boys in the class. Dueto this, she couldn’t like others so easily.

If she was given another chance, she would never have said that.

“Sigh, it’s really hard to describe my taste at that time. Why did I fall in love with the class monitor?”

Tang Wei rode the bicycle more seriously this time. When she arrived at a certain place, she locked the bicycle and took a taxi again.

After returning to Lanshan Manor, she went into her bedroom and started editing the scenes from ‘Red Maze’.

If the film gets good responses, she promised her fans that she would write an extra, and the extra would also be filmed.

“Ding!”

A message notification appeared, but she only saw traffic or weather notifications.

Therefore, she ignored the message and continued to think about the plot.

Time passed very quickly. Tang Wei forgot the time as soon as she finished writing her story. She only came back to her senses when there was a knock on the door.

It seemed like Lu Beichen was back.

Tang Wei looked at the time on the bedside table as she walked. It was already seven o’clock in the evening.

She walked over and opened the door. When she saw that it was Lu Beichen, she said, “Welcome back.”

The man’s gaze lingered on the woman’s face and her clothes. He frowned fiercely, and his deep eyes flickered with displeasure.

He said coldly, “Didn’t you read my message?”

“What? What message? I’ve been working the whole time, so I didn’t check my phone. Moreover, the messages that I usually get are all unimportant news.”

Tang Wei continued.

Unexpectedly, the man became even more displeased when he heard this.

“My family is coming. Is that not important news?”

Lu Beichen saw that the laptop in the bedroom was placed on the low table. There was even music coming from it. This woman was clearly playing on her laptop.

Tang Wei raised her eyebrows when she heard that someone was coming. She started to look for her phone and said, “I didn’t know it was you who sent the message. When will they arrive?”

Lu Beichen pursed his lips and did not say anything.

Tang Wei found her phone and opened it. It was a message from Xiao Chen.

“Madam, Old Master Lu and Aunt Cheng will be going to Lanshan Manor today.”

Tang Wei searched for a long time but couldn’t find the second message. They forwarded such an important matter through only a message?

She complained in her heart. Why didn’t he ask Xiao Chen to make a call? Who would check their messages every few seconds? Moreover, she would always either answer calls or check her WeChat!

But looking at Lu Beichen’s expression, she did not dare to say anything else. In the end, she was still in the wrong.

Lu Beichen looked at her expression and mocked softly, “You can choose to turn off the music when you play games in the future.”

Tang Wei was speechless. “I wasn’t playing games. It was the theme song of a very popular game. I put it aside and listened to it while I worked.”

The man obviously didn’t believe it. Who would listen to music while working? She refused to admit what she was doing, and she even resorted to lying?

Lu Beichen had a bad impression of her now.

However, he did not expose her and said bluntly, “Get dressed. They’re already downstairs.”

“…”

Tang Wei didn’t say anything. Instead, she turned around and changed her clothes.

The man stood at the door, waiting with his arms crossed.

She changed into a decent dress as fast as she could and even put on light makeup.

She almost admired herself for how quick she was. It had only taken her six minutes.

However, Lu Beichen felt that a long time had passed, impatience gathered between his brows.

“Alright, I’m done.” Tang Wei walked over and said.

Lu Beichen handed his arm to the woman. He took a deep breath and said patiently, “My father and Aunt Cheng are downstairs. If they ask you what you do for a living… Just say that you’re the Director of Tianwen Corporation. The person in charge of Tianwen Corporation is my good friend. I’ve already arranged it so that our relationship won’t be exposed. As for your family, you can tell the truth or make up stories if you want.”

Tang Wei nodded. But why didn’t he ask her what she did for a living?

Instead, he made up a position in Song Tianwen’s subsidiary company. Did he think that her position would not be presentable, or did he think that a position in Tianwen’s company was more suitable for her identity?

On the other hand, Lu Beichen did not think that her position was not presentable. On the contrary, he did not know what she did for a living and was afraid that asking would hurt his wife’s pride.

“Third Master Lu, did you tell them about our marriage in advance?”

Tang Wei thought of an important question and asked immediately.

Lu Beichen said lightly, “No, today is my mother’s death anniversary, so they came here for a stroll. I can’t be bothered to say it in advance, but I can take this opportunity to introduce you to them. This way, you won’t have to go to the old residence.”

She pursed her lips. She did not like his way of doing things. He did not tell anyone in advance when he did something or was planning something. She thought that this situation was only targeted at his unfamiliar wife, but she did not expect him to not even tell his father in advance.

However, when she heard him say that today was his mother’s death anniversary, she recalled that Auntie Wang had previously told her about the Lu family’s background. So, the Aunt Cheng that Lu Beichen mentioned just now should be Old Master Lu’s new wife.

“Then how should I address Aunt Cheng later?” Tang Wei asked awkwardly.

She felt that it was necessary to clarify this point. After all, she did not know who this Aunt Cheng was or what her relationship with Lu Beichen was.

Also, she did not have a good impression of this aunt or any aunt anymore. All of this was because of Zheng Yanyan!

Lu Beichen glanced at her indifferently. He did not know why she would ask such a question.

“Just call her Aunt Cheng.”

“Oh.” Tang Wei also responded indifferently.

Old Master Lu sat on the sofa and said in a strong voice, “Why isn’t this brat coming down? How unfilial can he be, to just leave me here?”

Aunt Cheng handed him the tea and comforted, “Beichen should be coming down soon. Besides, whenever you father and son are sitting together, the both of you would either be cold or sarcastic with each other. I don’t even want to sit beside you sometimes.”

However, Old Master Lu did not listen to her. He raised his voice and shouted at Aunt Wang, who was busy in the kitchen, “Go up and call Lu Beichen down!”

“No need,” Lu Beichen said calmly.

“You called Aunt Wang?” Tang Wei looked at the man and whispered.

“What else? It’s not like I can tell you to just go cook.” Lu Beichen said.

“…” Tang Wei choked.

She actually wanted to thank the man for calling Aunt Wang over. After all, she did not know how to cook for rich and powerful people. Her simple meals would not be of any use to them.

Lu Beichen’s voice attracted the attention of the people downstairs.

His gaze swept across the area where the woman was grabbing his arm. He paused and frowned. “How did you burn your hand?”

Tang Wei secretly shrank back. “I burnt it when I was having a drink.”

The man stared at her and thought, ‘She doesn’t even know how to bandage her wound. In the end, women still have to care for their bodies!’

However, he didn’t say anything more. After all, it had nothing to do with him.

Lu Beichen retracted his gaze and continued walking. Then, he thought of something and stopped.

Tang Wei was speechless. “What else do you have to say?”

“In the future, when you go out to ride a bike, be more focused. Don’t rush around.” Lu Beichen pursed his lips and added. He still had to mention this.

Tang Wei couldn’t help but look at him. Was he one of the people who almost crashed into her today?

“Thank you.”

Aunt Cheng heard the noise downstairs and asked, “Beichen, who are you talking to?”

Then, they looked at the stairs and saw Lu Beichen and a beautiful girl. They looked young and were very close.

Old Master Lu frowned and asked unhappily, “Who is she?”
