Chapter 45 - The Wall of Brotherhood – 20 (1/2)

Andric has been miserable recently. Lu Zhi Yao clearly said he would cooperate with him. After ruining Lu Zhi Yuan, he could return to Lu as a design director and he would help him get Huang Yanran.

But now, Lu Zhi Yao revealed evidence that he plagiarized Bai Xun’s design draft, which nearly destroyed his reputation he built for many years in the design industry, and those designers who originally followed him also left.

What was even more hateful was that he didn’t know which group of people has been chasing him this entire time. Even his house was burned. If he didn’t quickly run, he might have died in it.

He wasn’t willing, he must get everything back!

Otherwise, even if he loses his reputation, he will drag Lu Zhi Yao to hell with him.

Andric has been looking for opportunities to approach Lu Zhi Yao. He pressed his hat and hid himself deeper.

He finally waited until Lu Zhi Yao drove out alone, and hurriedly stopped a car to follow him.

The car drove to a place he was familiar with, it was Huang Yanran’s villa.

Lu Zhi Yao sat in the car for a long time, and his cold side profile didn’t reveal any fluctuations, only his hesitant eyes revealed some uneasiness.

He never cared about a person like this, like a person…

He knew Bai Xun was taken back by Huang Yanran, and that maybe she was there, but he didn’t dare enter.

Suddenly, not far away, two figures slowly approached. Huang Yanran and Bai Xun held a bag containing various vegetables and fruits.

“How was it? Are you feeling better after shopping at the supermarket?” Huang Yanran smiled. “I’ll show you my specialty later.”

Although Bai Xun’s smile was very light, it seemed to relax a lot. “Will Miss Huang cook?”

“That is, do you dare look down on me?” Huang Yanran raised an eyebrow.

Bai Xun joked: “I don’t dare…”

The two talked and laughed, Lu Zhi Yao got out of the car in a hurry.

“Xiao Xun…”

As always, the familiar voice was beautiful and deep, but with a trace of helplessness.

Helpless? Would Lu Zhi Yao be helpless?

Bai Xun looked at him incredulously.

Well-groomed neat black hair, meticulous suit…the handsome face was also perfect and cold.

In addition, the obsidian eyes stared fixedly at her, and contained complex emotions such as panic and anxiety.

Bai Xun lowered her eyes and slowly spoke, “Excuse me, what can I do for you? President Lu?”

Her tone was distant and indifferent, and her address was more sarcastic. Lu Zhi Yao’s heart was stabbed. He never felt this title embarrassed him so much than at this moment.

“…Xiao Xun, I came to see you. I wanted to invite you back to Lu. The truth of the matter has come to light. Andric was kicked out of Lu and you also proved your ability. So, I want to invite you to the position of director of the design department. Please think about it and come…”

Lu Zhi Yao said it a little anxiously in a light tone, as if with flattery.

It was so amazing to hear Lu Zhi Yao being humble and flattering that people could see her importance now.

Just—

“The truth was brought to light?” Bai Xun seemed to have heard something funny, her original calm was broken by this, and was replaced with irrepressible grief. She looked at Lu Zhi Yao with a sneer, “The biggest accomplice, isn’t he standing here?”

The fluttering sentence hit Lu Zhi Yao’s heart like a heavy hammer. His suit cuff hand tightened for a moment, and his throat was dry and speechless.

Is there no chance?

His voice was hoarse, “…Xiao Xun, what can I do for you to forgive me?”

“To deceive is to deceive, what use is it, it’s over. I’m worthless, aren’t I?” Bai Xun looked away and tried to look indifferent. “So, go back. I can’t afford the position of design director. Don’t come to me in the future.”

“I’m not lying to you, those words I said are all true.” Lu Zhi Yao was anxious, “I like you, it’s true; It was out of my control to help you, it’s true; what I said, to be my girlfriend, it’s true…”

Was he confessing? … Bai Xun looked at him stupefied and Huang Yanran’s face changed.

She pulled Bai Xun and looked coldly at the opposite man, “Lu Zhi Yao, have you said enough? How, is it useful to come to repentance after the injury?”

Lu Zhi Yao frowned. He faced Huang Yanran, he naturally put away the softness he had in front of Bai Xun and coldly said, “Huang Yanran, do you think nobody knows what you did?”

What did she do?

If it was someone else here, what she done wasn’t false.
