The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 538 - 553: I’m tired for you, always living with a mask all day.

Zhang Min was dumbfounded when she heard the words "company bankruptcy": "Auntie, I’m begging you to show mercy. If the company goes bankrupt, we really have no way to live. You can’t be this relentless."

Lu Jinghan walked over holding Han Xi’s hand, his dark eyes filled with coldness: "Get out of my house immediately. You don’t deserve to stand here." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Han Guanghong stood up from the ground and desperately grabbed Han Xi’s hand: "Xiao Xi, for the sake of your father having raised you all these years, please plead with your grandmother and uncle for me. If there’s no company, what will your father eat or drink in the future?"

"I already helped you last time considering you raised me. We are even now; I won’t help you again this time."

Han Xi shook off Han Guanghong’s hand, her eyes as cold as the withering autumn.

"If you don’t leave right now, I’ll call the police. This is trespassing."

Lu Jinghan led Han Xi to sit on the sofa, his low voice carrying a warning.

Han Guanghong and Zhang Min had no choice but to leave in despair.

After dinner, the old lady, saddened by today’s events, went to her room early to rest.

Zhang Linmiao helped Sister Zhang clean the dining table and then went upstairs with Wen Anbang.

Jian Ru brought a fruit platter to the sofa in the living room, leaned over, and handed a piece of apple to Wen Yichen: "Yichen, have an apple. I just tried it, and it’s very sweet."

"With my grandma not here, there’s no need to pretend. Living with a mask on all day must be exhausting for you."

Wen Yichen’s eyes never left the TV screen, and his words were sharp.

Jian Ru put down the apple in her hand and awkwardly glanced at Han Xi and Lu Jinghan before speaking: "I’m not pretending. Why can’t you try to get along with me?"

"At the cemetery today, you cried harder than my grandma. You’re really clueless. Have you even met my aunt? Your act was overdone."

Indeed, Han Xi also felt that Jian Ru’s behavior this morning was a bit theatrical. Who would cry their heart out for someone they’ve never met?

Jian Ru lowered her head in grievance: "You misunderstood me. I just treat your family as my own."

Wen Yichen really didn’t want to hear her chatter on, so he simply put on headphones and went upstairs.

Lu Jinghan, holding Han Xi’s hand, spoke affectionately: "It’s getting late. Let’s go back to our room and rest."

Han Xi nodded, said goodbye to Jian Ru, and went upstairs.

As the bedroom door closed, Lu Jinghan unexpectedly pinned Han Xi against the wall, his dark eyes filled with intense desire: "I’ll join you for a shower."

Han Xi looked at him with a slight blush: "Stop it; grandma and uncle are here. They’ll hear us."

"Just be quieter."

Lu Jinghan’s knee pressed between Han Xi’s legs, his elegant throat bobbing, and his thin lips found hers flawlessly.

Han Xi’s long lashes fluttered a few times. She intended to push him away, but the more she moved, the more intensely he kissed, his hot tongue stirring up a storm in her mouth.

Lu Jinghan wrapped Han Xi in his arms, and together they stumbled toward the bathroom.

........

The next morning, Han Xi sat up from the bed rubbing her sore waist, glanced at Lu Jinghan on the balcony making a call, and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
