This time, when they entered No. 2 Residence, Han Qianjing stood up elegantly and said, “I hope you don’t mind that I suddenly got Jinyu to invite you over.”

22?

Chu Jinyu wondered when her mother had changed.

Ever since she remembered, she had never seen Han Qianjing so polite to anyone, especially when the other party was just her childhood friend. If he was from a wealthy family from Beijing, she could understand this attitude.

However, Lu Ming was just an ordinary person.

She looked at Xu Wei on the side and noticed that she was winking at her, trying to tell her something—’Miss! The man beside you is not simple! Don’t think too little of him. You must be careful!”

However, Chu Jinyu did not understand what she was saying at all and misunderstood her as suggesting that someone was impersonating her mother.

Obviously, the two of them did not have any rapport at all. All these years of getting along with each other had been for nothing.

So she pulled Han Qianjing’s face in front of everyone until it was almost red but did not find any clue. Oh, she was really her mother.

“Mom, did you take the wrong medicine?”

Although she had tried her best to lower her voice, the environment was so quiet that Lu Ming could hear her clearly. He almost laughed out loud.

His childhood sweetheart was a little cute.

Han Qianjing looked at her silly daughter with a death gaze. The good mood that Lu Ming had initially felt instantly disappeared. She was indeed Chu Jinyu. She could provoke her mother in unique and speedy ways.

To be honest, he could not blame Han Qianjing for having a bad temper.

The main reason was that Chu Jinyu was too mischievous and had to make her mother lose face when there were others around. Moreover, there was an outsider around.

She said with a fake smile, “How much longer are you going to pull my face?”

Chu Jinyu retracted her hand awkwardly and said, “Isn’t your change a little too drastic? I thought that someone was pretending to be you to trick us”

She was implying that her mother was acting too abnormally!

Han Qianjing took a deep breath, clenched her fists slowly, and gave her a good punch!

“Owl!”

Chu Jinyu felt that she had not done anything. Why did I get punched?

Could it be that she found out that I’ve secretly skipped work to visit Brother Lu Ming?

Xu Wei, who was hiding in the corner, held her forehead helplessly. She knew that her mistress always dropped the ball at critical moments. Although her boss’s attitude was very different from before, how could she say it out loud?

If she did not know Chu Jinyu, she would have suspected that she was deliberately undermining her mother.

“There’s no such thing as a disguise technique in real life, so can you wake up?”

After lecturing her daughter, Han Qianjing nodded at Lu Ming and said, “I’ve incurred your ridicule. I apologize for my neglect previously. In addition, I was afraid that Jinyu would meet some bad people, so I resorted to unusual means. I apologize to you again.”

He knew at once that she had revealed his cards! Stop pretending! he thought.

In any case, given Lu Ming’s ability, he would also find out that she was the one who did it. She might as well be honest from the start. Perhaps she could even improve the other party’s impression of her.

How could Lu Ming not know what she was thinking? She was indeed an old fox. He had wanted to ask her about this initially, but he could only swallow his words now. In order to protect her daughter, it was normal to do such a thing, He really could not find any fault with her. After all, she had been

slightly aloof to him previously but did not do anything overboard.

Other than investigating his identity, the other party had done nothing else and had already apologized.

“It’s alright, I didn’t take it to heart. Besides, I didn’t make myself clear from the start, which resulted in your misunderstanding.”

Chu Jinyu listened to their conversation and her expression became stranger.

Did I miss out on something important? she wondered.

Why is Mom suddenly so polite? Why did Brother Lu Ming say such strange things?

Explain?

Do I need to say anything? she thought.

Seeing her silly daughter standing rooted to the ground in a daze, Han Qianjing felt that she could not bear to look any longer. “You’ve been with him for so long but you haven’t noticed anything wrong? He’s the boss of Wanke Real Estate.”

“What boss?”

Wanke Real Estate!

Chu Jinyu gasped. “Mom! When did you have a problem seeing clearly?”

If she wanted her to believe this, she might as well tell her that the world would end tomorrow!

She had been with Brother Lu Ming for so long but had never found anything wrong with him, let alone being the boss of a company that was among the top 500 in the world!

Typically, those people had their noses up in the air and would go to upscale places for no reason. They would dress in custom were specially custom outfits, right down to the buttons. From time to time, they would say something unintelligible.

However, Brother Lu Ming was different. Not only was he wearing ordinary clothes and hanging out at the construction site all day, he was also approachable.

No matter how one looked at him, he was just an outstanding ordinary person!

Han Qianjing tried her best to control her temper and gritted her teeth as she said, “Use your brain to think carefully! Are you wearing too thick a filter?”

Seeing that she was not joking, Chu Jinyu fell into deep thought.

What exactly is wrong? she thought.

It seems like there’s nothing wrong.

She recalled the incident of him getting a car and everything that happened previously. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that some things did not make sense. She looked at Lu Ming and said in disbelief, “Is what my mom… said true?”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Ming hurried forward and wanted to hug her. However, after sensing Han Qianjing’s gaze, he immediately changed to rubbing her head and consoling her, “I’m sorry. I didn’t deliberately hide my identity. I told you what I was doing from the start, but I saw that

you didn’t believe me, so I chose to go along with it.

I wanted to tell you when the time is ripe. I originally planned to tell you the truth in the near future. Didn’t you see that I’ve been spending money extravagantly recently? Haven’t you thought about where the money came from? Buying land and developing cars and so on?”

It was not that she had not suspected it before, but the filter she wore was really too thick! Subconsciously, she did not believe that the other party was rich at all and even conjured up his miserable background in her mind.

Just thinking about it made her want to dig a hole and hide in it!

It was too embarrassing!

‘The little pitiful person in her eyes was actually the CEO of the world’s top 500 company?!

It was no wonder Brother Lu Ming wanted to say something but hesitated. It turned out that he wanted to tell her about this.

She thought about it. If Lu Ming had said that he was the boss of Wanke Real Estate before all this happened, she would definitely have laughed it off and not taken it to heart. She might even think that he was bluffing.

At this moment, her face had already turned red. She covered her face with both hands but Lu Ming thought that she was crying because he had deceived her. Just as he was at a loss, a familiar voice sounded in his ears.

“Can you remind me again next time? Or tell me the truth. I’l definitely believe you..”
