Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love-Chapter 725 - 290. [Heartbreaking Fairy Tale] Seeing Lu When the Forest is Deep (1)_4
That wasn’t playing basketball, it was clearly venting.
Lu Huai’an knew his environment better than anyone. Unlike Gu Shaozhi, even though Old Sir Gu had more than one grandson, it was clear that Gu Shaozhi was the publicly declared future successor of the Gu Family.
The situation with the Lu Family was far more complex than outsiders could see.
He had joined the company two years ago, starting from the bottom, and he was busy every day, so indeed, he rarely came to school.
He took a few sips of mineral water and, after his breathing steadied, said lightly, "Whatever."
Gu Shaozhi, "..."
Fine, it’s your birthday, you have the final say.
————
Around four in the afternoon.
Lin Chu hitched a ride with Jiang Muzhou to the gate of An University, and after waiting for about half an hour, Ji Wanxia finally arrived.
Lin Chu had found out in advance that Lu Huai’an had just finished playing basketball and was probably in the poolside shower room taking a shower. He might even swim a few laps later. The location was very clear; she just needed to successfully find the pool and deliver the gift and cake.
She knew Wanxia actually wanted to stay home to care for Brother Ji, but she was afraid of water, and Jiang Muzhou was extremely unreliable, so she felt a bit timid going alone.
"Is your brother feeling any better?"
Wanxia was obviously a bit distracted, and it took Lin Chu asking a second time before she realized what the other was saying.
"He went to the company at noon, said there was an important meeting to attend, I don’t know if his fever’s gone down."
"Are you still going to school tonight?"
Wanxia hadn’t really paid attention to her afternoon classes, so even if she went to school tonight, she’d be in the same state, "No, I took the day off, I can’t leave a workaholic alone at home."
"Such a good sister," the mischievous Jiang following behind the two girls clicked his tongue, nudging closer to Wanxia, "Need another brother? Like me, handsome and not clingy."
Lin Chu glared at him, her tone unfriendly as she warned, "Jiang Muzhou! Stay away from our Wanwan, you socialist parasite."
Actually, he’s not bad, but he has a crush on someone, so better not mess with good friends.
But Jiang Muzhou wasn’t easily scared off, the more Lin Chu said so, the closer he got to Wanxia, "I won’t, what are you gonna do about it, bite me?"
Look at him acting all cheeky!
Lin Chu was just about to kick him when she suddenly noticed about twenty meters away, a large creature looming, drooling, black eyes fixed on her, seemingly ready to pounce any second.
The three of them were frozen in place.
Lin Chu spoke in a shaky voice, "Dog dog dog... dog! Why is there such a fierce-looking dog in school!"
And there weren’t many people around, maybe that senior sister earlier pointed them in the wrong direction!
"Hiss..." Wanxia felt her hand was likely turning blue from being pinched, she couldn’t help but quietly say, "Xiao Chu, stop pinching me."
"Sorry, sorry, I thought it was Zhouzhou."
Jiang Muzhou, "..."
He was a man, couldn’t chicken out now, "You two stay put, I’ll distract the dog, Lin Chu, if I don’t find you in twenty minutes, you better take care of my old man in his retirement, or I’ll haunt you."
"Got, got it."
Jiang Muzhou, "..."
Isn’t anybody going to stop me?
Having spoken, Jiang Muzhou squeezed his eyes shut, quietly scooted back a great distance, then took off running.
Sure enough, the giant dog immediately gave chase.
Possibly because it was too overweight, its speed wasn’t as fast as expected, Jiang Muzhou should be able to make it back alive.
Numbskull Lin Chu also bolted without looking back, continuously urging, "Wanwan hurry up, hurry up!"
Leaving Wanxia completely baffled.
Feeling speechless yet amused, "We could just go past from the side, why run?" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
As long as it’s not a mad dog, it usually doesn’t bite, but if it is, Jiang Muzhou might be doomed.
...
Lin Chu was really scared by that dog, acting like a headless chicken, she ran down any path regardless of where it led, without even looking.
In late October, the sky was clear and sunny, temperatures still high.
After exercising, both students and teachers would go shower outside the pool. Among guys, they were casual, indifferent to privacy, sweaty and uncomfortable, most would strip right away.
"Bang!"
The door was pushed open forcefully.
Everyone paused their actions simultaneously, looking towards the entrance.
Lin Chu, used to big scenes, was stunned too.
Apart from her rapid breathing, all her joints seemed to freeze, more so than when she faced the dog.
She had just seen a room and wanted to hide inside, never expecting to open the door and find a group of men undressing.
"Damn!"
Someone swore under their breath, and only then did all the students hastily grab towels or cover their important parts.
Lin Chu’s legs felt weak, entering was impossible, leaving... what if the dog caught up?
She let out a dry laugh, "So-sorry, I didn’t see anything, really! Um... the guy in the red underwear, is it your zodiac year? Couldn’t tell, you look quite mature... ahaha, no I didn’t mean to..."
"Shut up!"
Accompanying the man’s voice, low but filled with anger, a massive towel covered her face, blocking her sight.
She knew who it was, so she obediently let him grab her shoulders and turn her 180 degrees.
Lu Huai’an seemed to have reached the end of his patience, the grip on the girl’s shoulders completely without restraint.
Lin Chu was practically pushed forward, her delicate face scrunched in pain, though the towel covered it, hiding any expression.
It really hurt too much, she couldn’t help but cry out, "Ah... it hurts, it hurts!"
Lu Huai’an was just about ready to strangle her.
Ignoring her cries of pain, his dark eyes were terrifyingly intense as he rounded the corner and began berating her.
"Are you brain dead? Or do you lack men so much you barged into the men’s showers without closing your eyes? Lin Chu, do you know how old you are? Know your gender? Even if your elementary teacher didn’t teach you the word ’shame,’ didn’t your dad?"
Skipping class regularly and even dared to see a bunch of men exposed!
With every question he asked, Lin Chu’s shoulders trembled, her head tucked under the towel, pitifully trying to explain, "No, I..."
