Yong Liwei didn't say a word but she knew that he understood what she meant. Now that she was back at the mainland, together with him, they would have to convince the eyes of many. He may be complying just because of Han Yizhou's favor but it was different for Lu Mengjie. She was doing it to solve the mystery of her accident and help Bai Jingye while she was at it. She needed to be discreet with the plans she had in mind.
Entering the gate of the Lu Garden, the roadway was lined with shade trees. It was a big place that it took about ten minutes to drive to reach the main house.
The door was opened for them by Niu Jiachen. Yong Liwei stepped out first, followed by his wife. They both saw Xia Liqin, waiting at the entrance of the mansion. His arms were crossed and he was glaring coldly at the man beside his sister. Beside him, a large black, Canadian Timber wolf was sitting.
A memory suddenly flashed before her eyes.
...
(Flashback)
"Lu Xian Yu!"
A beautiful, mature looking woman with straight black hair, wearing an eye-catching bright red dress that hugged her figure, went out of the mansion. She hurriedly went to Lu Xian Yu and hugged him by his neck before she placed a soft peck on his lips. "You're finally back! I missed you sooo much babe!"
Li Bingbing raised a brow upon seeing the woman who attacked Lu Xian Yu. She placed a hand on her waist as she stared at the two that were in front of her. On the other hand, Mengmeng wasn't calm like her mother, instead, a loud gasp was heard from her, "take your hands off my daddy! Eww! Eww! Bastard! You fucking piece of shit!"
"It is supposed to be 'bitch', not 'bastard', sweetheart," Li Bingbing said with a cold smile plastered on her face.
Shen Juan, Lu Xian Yu's assistant, turned his head to Li Bingbing in disbelief. She shouldn't be teaching those words to her children, right? Was he hearing things right?
Little Mengmeng quickly went in between her father and the woman. "Bitch! You fucking piece of shit! Shoo! Shoo! Get away from my daddy!"
The other woman's eyes turned cold when she heard the words that were coming out of the little girl's mouth. What caught her attention the most was when she addressed Lu Xian Yu as her father.
Qinqing took his handkerchief out of his pocket before he tugged Lu Xian Yu's shirt and reached it out to him.
Lu Xian Yu snapped out with the help of Qinqing. His brows that were furrowed together went deep. What was Nan Yiyi doing here? Wait, that was not important right now. Did he hear it right? Did his daughter just say bad words? He was in a trance, he didn't know where to focus, Nan Yiyi, Li Bingbing or his daughter?
What should he do? He wanted to explain to Li Bingbing that he didn't have a relationship with Nan Yiyi and at the same time, he wanted to know why Nan Yiyi was there. But then, he was also torn because of his sweet and innocent daughter's words. He had the urge of giving her a mouthwash just so her mouth would be cleansed!
Nan Yiyi smiled at the kids who were looking warily at her, "little girl, may I ask who your father is?"
Mengmeng's frown went deep, she puffed out her soft cheeks in an adorable manner before she replied, "old lady, are you blind?"
Once again, the people present there were caught off guard.
Shen Juan: "..."
Nan Yiyi: "..."
On the other hand, Li Bingbing's smirk grew big. That's her daughter right there alright. When she realized what she was thinking, she suddenly felt that she was going to be in big trouble. Uh-oh, she was not supposed to cheer for her daughter more and allow her to be this rude and yet Li Bingbing couldn't help but feel proud.
Nan Yiyi inhaled deeply, trying to calm herself down from the anger that was starting to grow in her chest. "Child, I am not an old lady, neither am I blind, I just want to confirm what you said."
"Then you must be dumb and stupid! Who else could be my daddy?" Mengmeng huffed, crossing her arms.
Qinqing nodded, agreeing with his sister, "Dada is dada!"
"..." What was that supposed to mean?
Lu Xian Yu ignored Nan Yiyi's presence and instead, he focused on his family instead.
He would definitely give Li Bingbing and the kids one long scolding later. For now, he should explain everything to Li Bingbing so that she wouldn't misunderstand the situation. "Bibi, this is not what you think it is."
Li Bingbing rolled her eyes, "I'm not even thinking right now."
Nan Yiyi turned to Li Bingbing and glared, "Lu Xian Yu, who is she?"
Lu Xian Yu glanced coldly at Nan Yiyi which made her feel chills run down her spine. Nan Yiyi was one of Lu Xian Yu's ex-girlfriends. Among the women that became his girlfriend, Nan Yiyi was the longest.
The Nan family were one of the elite families that stood on the same ground as the Lu family. They were the family that replaced the Bai family in their position as being in the top 3 largest companies. The only difference from the Lu family, just like the Bai family they didn't have any diplomatic immunity.
Nan Yiyi was Lu Yifeng and Lu Xian Yu's childhood friend. They met each other in the Azure republic, the same place where they met Han Liwei's father.
The only reason why Lu Xian Yu dated Nan Yiyi was because there was a time where he finally saw her as a woman, not as a friend. Aside from that, she confessed to him first so why not? In terms of dating and rejecting women, Lu Xian Yu was an expert. He would throw away the women he got tired of and get someone new, back then, they were just playthings to him. He never really went serious with one. He only went easy on Nan Yiyi because she was his childhood friend. He stopped dating others and he never cheated behind her back while they were together. They only broke up when Lu Xian Yu found out that his family was trying to get him engaged with her. He was not interested in marrying or being tied down to someone, aside from that he got tired of her. She was demanding and nosy with the things he did. He didn't want to hurt Nan Yiyi but his decision not to marry anyone was firm. If he was tied down in a thing called marriage, how could he enjoy his life more? He was young and there were so many things in the world that he had yet to see, he didn't want to get tied down!
