Chapter 715: Chapter 480: Nanxi’s affairs, have nothing to do with you anymore!_1

Actually, even up till now, Li Weihuan had to admit that there were many things about Lu Yinchu that he would never be able to achieve in his lifetime.

Before he met Nanxi, many of his actions were to seek affirmation from his uncle.

In his eyes, one word of praise from his uncle was worth ten or a hundred from anyone else; similarly, one word of disapproval from him would be a devastating blow.

He admired his uncle, he liked his uncle; he viewed his uncle as an almost perfect being.

He had made many mistakes in this life. He mistreated his parents, his two elder sisters, even Nanxi. But the accumulated mistakes could not compare to the gravity and depth of his machinations against his uncle.

He could stand tall and arrogant in front of everyone else as if he were a young master, but in front of his uncle, he was always in a lower position, looking up with humility.

People always make mistakes in ignorance and continue making them through indulgence.

At this moment, facing Lu Yinchu again, he didn’t know what he was feeling!

He wanted to apologize but was reluctant; without an apology, it would be very difficult to face Lu Yinchu.

"Weihuan, don’t worry about this matter!"

Sensing that Li Weihuan was about to speak, Lu Yinchu interrupted, his voice thin but wise and perceptive in his penetrating gaze.

Li Weihuan felt a sense of panic as if his thoughts had been read, "Uncle, I..."

"Weihuan, many people and things in this world may seem complicated and hard to understand, but they all have their own rules and structures. Just like earlier at the dinner, when the Deputy Bureau asked you to toast me, you addressed me as Mr. Lu, not as uncle! Why is that? You probably understand that we are born into specific frameworks, obligated to do what is required within such boundaries. Right now, I am your uncle, Nanxi is your aunt, you stand in the position of a nephew. You are not a fool, you understand what you should say and do!"

Lu Yinchu extinguished his cigarette, no longer looking at Li Weihuan, he turned and walked towards the restroom.

Li Weihuan stood there, his eyes flickering, feeling a hollow emptiness inside him.

In fact, all that Lu Yinchu said could be summarized as: Nanxi’s affairs are no longer any of your concern!

...

When he returned to dinner, the atmosphere was still harmonious.

Lu Yinchu drank very little earlier, but later two ministers toasted him one after the other. Mo Yan wanted to stop him, but Lu Yinchu drank without saying a word!

The two ministers were pleased, believing Lu Yinchu was giving them face. They spoke some platitudes, to which Lu Yinchu merely responded with a faint smile.

In fact, Lu Yinchu enjoyed the feeling of liquor sliding down his throat, the spicy stimulation as it poured into his stomach.

As a result, his stomach was burning with pain and his body warmed up, but it was a warmth that did not bring him comfort.

He was slightly tipsy, and in his tipsiness, he unexpectedly missed "her". He wondered if she was thinking of him too?

...

When the dinner was over, Lu Yinchu got up, picked up his suit jacket, and listened to the courteous farewells around him.

Lu Yinchu responded politely, neither overly familiar nor aloof.

Li Weihuan remained silent till the end.

On everyone’s way out of the hotel, a slightly awkward incident occurred; a stylish and beautiful woman with a tall figure suddenly rushed over, shouting "Mr. Lu...." before blocking Lu Yinchu’s path with her high heels.

Everyone stopped in their tracks, Li Weihuan’s face changed, he wanted to say something, but Mo Yan who was standing next to him pulled him back, shaking his head slightly.

Li Weihuan bit his lip and held himself back. He didn’t expect that Ni Xuexue would appear so blatantly!

What was she up to?

"Mr. Lu, I’m sorry to disturb you at this time. I tried calling your assistant...."

Ni Xuexue glanced at Mo Yan, "That is, I tried to call Assistant Mo, but couldn’t get through. I went to your company, they said you weren’t there, after asking around, I finally found you here. I...have something to say to you...."

With his hands in his pockets, Lu Yinchu showed no expression. He stepped around Ni Xuexue, his voice faint as he said three words, "In the car!"

Ni Xuexue’s heart skipped a beat, she quickly turned around to catch up. Li Weihuan wanted to say something, but Mo Yan stopped him, "Don’t interfere, Mr. Lu knows what he’s doing!"

The other people around them knew there was an untold story, but they didn’t dare say more, bidding their farewells with smiles. Li Weihuan got into the Deputy Bureau’s car to return to the office together.

Through the car window, Li Weihuan stared at the black Land Rover not far away. Ni Xuexue got in, the car door closed, and then the vehicle turned around and drove off.

His hand tightened into a fist. Even though he was so unwilling, apart from enduring, it seemed he could do nothing.

...

Inside the Land Rover, Ni Xuexue was both excited and nervous.

She had initially fantasized about Lu Yinchu, but then she gave up thinking it was impossible, and instead, she felt a man like Han Shaojing was a better match for her.

However, sitting in the same car with this man at this moment, she realized how ridiculous her thoughts were!

As a woman, if she could earn even a fleeting glance of affection from a man like Lu Yinchu, she would die happy!

No wonder Han Qing never gave up in those six years. This man indeed had the power to make a woman desire him to the point of life and death!

"Mr. Lu, I’m really sorry to bother you at this time, I hope you won’t mind, I...I had no choice....."

"Miss Ni, if you have something to say, please just say it!"

Lu Yinchu cut her off, his voice low and deep, his strong aura nearly suffocating Ni Xuexue!

"Mr. Lu, here is the thing!" Ni Xuexue blinked, took a deep grey paper bag from her purse, and handed it over.

"This is money given to me by Weihuan’s mother, Qi Qun. I’m sorry, in the past, I believed Han Qing’s words and gave the photocopy of the property transfer contract that you gave to Han Qing to Qi Qun. Probably because she didn’t trust me, she...gave me this money, trying to buy my silence....."

"Heh!"

Lu Yinchu pulled up the corner of his mouth in a smirk.

He knew his mother found out that he gave a villa to Han Qing because of Qi Qun, but he didn’t know how Qi Qun came to know. As it turned out, it was Ni Xuexue!

"So, you’re here to return the money?" Lu Yinchu asked Ni Xuexue, his tone indifferent.

"Yes!" Ni Xuexue said, "Of course, the most important thing is to apologize. I’m really sorry, I was just hot-headed at the time, and I also happened to be short of money, so... I’m sorry, Mr. Lu, I..."

"Stop at the intersection ahead!"

Lu Yinchu did not pay attention to her, calmly instructing Mo Yan who was driving in front.
