Looking at the peanuts she spent the whole night buying, Xie Wan felt that she was flattering the right person.

“Young Master Lu, please help yourself. If you want to eat melon seeds or walnuts, just tell me.”

The corner of Lu Xiu’s mouth twitched where no one could see.

So Xie Wan was quite proud of her behavior.

“Thank you for your kindness, Mrs. Cheng. It’s just that… the peanuts that we prefer are special. You can’t buy them in this place. You can keep this cart full of peanuts for yourselves.”

After saying that, he didn’t give the Cheng family any chance to speak. He quickly got into the car, as if he was worried that they would really drag out a cart full of melon seeds for him.

The Cheng Residence became smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror. Only then did Lu Xiu take stopped his fake smile and relax on the seat.

“You know, after eating the peanuts given by Cheng Ling yesterday, today I don’t feel tired at all.”

He shook his head and stretched his muscles. He felt as if he had a full-body massage yesterday.

“Cheng Ling is a treasure girl. I like her!”

Lu Qi was using his phone to reply to overseas emails. When he heard Lu Xiu’s words, he raised his head and glanced at him.

Only then did Lu Xiu realize that his words were ambiguous.

“No, I absolutely didn’t mean that. I only like her as a friend.”

Lu Xiu was worried that he would get into trouble, so he quickly cleared his name.

Lu Qi was still staring at him.

Normally this person looked gentle and refined. When he looked at you quietly, he could make your hair stand on end. Right now, Lu Xiu was suffering under such a gaze.

“No, I don’t like her! I don’t like Cheng Ling.”

This should be enough, right?

Seeing that Lu Qi’s gaze returned to his phone, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Are we going back to the east of the city now?”

Lu Qi nodded.

“There seems to be news about yesterday’s batch of firearms. Let’s go back and deal with it.”

Lu Xi, Lu Nan, and Lu Bei all followed them back. Lu Dong continued to guard the west side of the city and monitor the progress of the project. At the same time, he also continued to see if Cheng Ling needed any help.

For something that had happened like yesterday’s afternoon, even if Lu Qi had not come, Cheng Ling would not have been bullied. However, the feeling of having no one on her side must not be good.

After all, Lu Qi had experienced this feeling before.
