Chapter 456: Chapter 453
Wen Xian didn’t know how to reply for a moment, when Lu Xiao stepped forward, stood in front of Wen Yu, took out his wallet, and directly pulled out several red bills for him, “I didn’t get you anything for our first meeting, and now that I’m going back, I should carry some money with me. It’s not much, but keep it for emergencies.”
He said, not allowing him any chance to refuse, and stuffed it directly into his pocket.
Too much money could actually lead to trouble.
The young man hurried to give it back to him, but Wen Xian said, “Keep it, it’s from your brother-in-law.”
Wen Xian looked at the young man, and by this time, her voice had softened a lot, unable to say any harsh words.
This brother of hers was different from what she had expected.
Hearing Wen Xian say so, Wen Yu fell silent. As it was almost time to enter the station, he finally accepted the money.
“Thank you, brother-in-law.”
Lu Xiao looked at his watch, patted his shoulder, and said, “Don’t be polite, I am your brother-in-law. Hurry inside, don’t miss your train. Remember to send us a message when you board the train and when you arrive.”
The young man’s brows and eyes were warm as he lightly pursed his lips and nodded.
Finally, he looked at his sister standing next to his brother-in-law, “Sis, I’m leaving then.”
Wen Xian didn’t speak, just watched him.
Wen Yu turned, his slender figure heading towards the train station.
Just as he was getting further away, a woman’s loud voice suddenly came from behind, “Wen Yu! I don’t dislike you…!”
The young man’s body stiffened, and he stopped in his tracks.
Another voice came from behind, “Study well! Get into a university in Beijing! Your sister and brother-in-law are both here!”
In Beijing, home to prestigious universities, she hoped he would have a bright future and meet them here.
And her words broke through the intangible barriers that had stood between them.
Wen Xian watched as the young man slowly turned around, looking at her with a smile.
Somewhat shy, yet exceptionally sincere.
Then, he shouted back loudly, “I will.”
Wen Xian: “…”
This time, Wen Yu left, blending into the crowd, and Wen Xian kept watching his figure until it completely disappeared, yet her gaze lingered.
Lu Xiao noticed, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes.
Actually, although Wen Xian had been hurt by her family, deep inside, she still longed for more love, whether romantic or familial.
Now, her brother had made her feel the warmth and love of a relative, which was a good thing.
He hoped his woman would become the happiest person in the world.
…
On their way back, Wen Xian asked about the car accident. Driving the car, Lu Xiao’s eyes deepened slightly, but his response was inconsequential, saying everything had been taken care of and that it was the bread van driver’s brake failure that had caused the accident.
Wen Xian, hearing this, felt alarmed yet oddly relieved.
After all, if it was an intentional act targeted at them, wouldn’t that be terrifying upon further reflection?
Unknown to her, the actual truth was indeed the worst-case scenario she had in mind.
…
Upon returning, Lu Xiao went straight to his father’s study, where the two of them discussed something.
He was soon to meet Li Tingze.
After returning to her room, Wen Xian began to pack her belongings simply, as she was going back to Shanghai soon to shoot the last endorsement before her break.
However, as she was emptying the contents of her LV bag onto the bed to reorganize, she found a small silver object had fallen out…!
