37 Kneel! (1/2)

”Hm?” Lu Zhanbei frowned.

Although Lu Zhanbei had never expected Gu Mo to check on Lin Wanwan, as an all-around assistant, reading the boss' mind was a fundamental skill.

”Today, Tang Chen went to Imperial Capital High School…”

He briefly explained the story to Lu Zhanbei, then pouted, ”This won't be hidden from the Lin family.”

”So?”

Lu Zhanbei gave a stiff grin, looking more distant than ever. The chilly aura seemed to set the entire room to a freezing point.

”Gu Mo, this is your first time making such mistake, so I'll let it slip. But, remember, never try to speculate what I'm thinking. I'll make it clear right now, Lin Wanwan is not important to me.”

Gu Mo turned pale. ”Understood, I won't let this happen again!”

Lu Zhanbei established a clear line. ”Unless she requests for help, it's none of my business.”

”Yes.”

Lu Zhanbei pinched his brows together. He could feel the passage of rage traveling well within his veins. Shutting his eyes, he tried to calm himself.

”Postpone the meeting, I'm going out for a walk.”

Gu Mo did not dare to speak. Pulling the door open, he followed suit.

In recent years, Lu Zhanbei had been landing himself in a terrible mood more often. Gu Mo couldn't tell why, so all he could do was give it his best guess.

Could it be… he's on his period?

Meanwhile, at the entrance to the Lin family…

Lin Wanwan paid for her ride and rummaged in her handbag for her cell phone.

Switching it on, she realized she had a few missed calls from Lin Qinghao.

Eh? Did the sun rise from the west?

This scum dad would call her?

Lin Wanwan put on an obedient look and entered the house. Servants were exceptionally quiet, even those trimming the flowers were notably cautious with their movements.
