The next day, in the bedroom of the villa.
Lu Mian was dressed in a well-ironed black suit. He patted Jiang Zhi’s shoulder with a solemn expression and pulled her into his arms.
Jiang Zhi lifted her head and smiled at him. She picked up the bouquet of chrysanthemum flowers that she had prepared in advance and went to the cemetery with Lu Mian.
Today was the anniversary of the death of Jiang Zhi’s mother.
She squatted down and wiped the tombstone with clean water. Looking at the black and white photo of the beautiful woman, she muttered, “Mother…”
“Mom…”
Jiang Zhi lowered her eyes and bit her red lips. Her tears fell on the ground and sank into the soft soil.
Lu Mian stood beside her and bowed respectfully. He tidied up his appearance and said in a clear voice.
“Hello, Auntie. I’m Lu Mian. It’s my first time meeting you. I hope you like me… I love her very much and will do my best to take care of Jiang Zhi for the rest of my life. I hope you can trust me with her.
“From now on, I’ll accompany her to visit you every year. You don’t have to worry about her being bullied anymore…”
Lu Mian’s sincere words warmed Jiang Zhi’s heart. She felt that an empty space at the bottom of her heart was gradually filling up and recovering.
After leaving the cemetery, Jiang Zhi was about to return to the production team when she received a call from her father.
Her father’s voice sounded a little strange as he said coldly, “Come home and eat. Today is the anniversary of your mother’s death. You have to have a family reunion dinner to console her spirit.”
Jiang Zhi wanted to turn him down, but when she saw the cemetery from the corner of her eye, she agreed.
Lu Mian returned to the set alone. Jiang Zhi stood at the door and paced around. She looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar place and pushed the door open.
Senior Jiang was talking loudly in the living room. A man of his age sat beside him.
Jiang Zhi recognized him. He was the famous old pervert in the financial circle, President Zhao.
Why was he here?
When her father saw her, he quickly invited her to sit beside him and introduced, “Director Zhao, this is my daughter, Jiang Zhi. You two have met before…
“Right now, due to her divorce, she’s not in a good mood. As her father, I also want to help her get over the trauma as soon as possible.
“You two should have a lot in common. In the future, if you meet often and chat, you’ll naturally be able to develop a relationship!”
