Lu Jingchuan looked at Old Master Lu in surprise - he couldn't believe that these words were coming out of his mouth.

It was only after a long while that he gradually came back to his senses and said, "Gu Xueqian, she..."

However, before Lu Jingchuan could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Old Master Lu, who looked even more serious than usual as he said in a low voice, "That's why I said that - if I dote on you too much, it would definitely have a negative effect on you. I'm trying to teach you how to tell right from wrong."

Lu Jingchuan couldn't understand what Old Master Lu was thinking - he lowered his head slightly, as though he was making a final silent resistance.

However, Old Master Lu was in no hurry. Seeing that Lu Jingchuan was silent, he slowly relaxed and continued to drink his favorite tea.

As time passed, Lu Jingchuan realized that he might not be able to leave the Lu family if he did not make his stand.

"Alright, I got it - I'll be there. Can you tell me where Jingling went, Grandpa?"

Old Master Lu's expression softened slightly at Lu Jingchuan's compromise - he said without thinking, "You went to find Gu Ziyan, didn't you?"

Lu Jingchuan was stunned when he heard this - he couldn't help but feel slightly uncomfortable.

He couldn't help but wonder what kind of attitude she'd had when Lu Jingling had gone to look for Gu Ziyan.

Lu Jingchuan knew exactly what he was feeling right now - it was resentment towards Gu Ziyan.

However, the most important thing right now was to find Gu Xueqian and explain the situation to her.

"Then grandfather, I'll go find Gu Xueqian."

"Alright, go."

This time, however, Old Master Lu did not try to stop him - after Lu Jingchuan had successfully walked out of the Lu family's residence, he immediately took out his phone and dialed Gu Xueqian's number.

"Where are you?" he asked in a deep voice as soon as the call connected.

Gu Xueqian heard that there was something wrong with his tone, but she didn't know what exactly it was, so she directly said, "Didn't I tell you that I was doing spa with my best friend? What's wrong?"

"Go home immediately. I have something to tell you."

This time, Lu Jingchuan did not believe Gu Xueqian's words at all - he hung up the phone without hesitation.

Gu Xueqian couldn't help but be stunned when she heard the busy tone on the other end of the phone - she blinked for a long time before regaining her senses.

Zhong Kexin was lying on the massage table, receiving the massage from the masseuse. Seeing that Gu Xueqian did not lie down again after a long time, she could not help but say, "Xueqian?"

When Gu Xueqian heard her best friend's voice, she suddenly came back to her senses and asked, "What's wrong?"

"What are you daydreaming about? Who called you?"

"Jingchuan."

Zhong Kexin couldn't help but let out a mocking expression when she heard this - she clicked her tongue and said, " Oh my, you're just coming out with me, and you're still so worried about you. You've really made me eat a lot of dog food. "

"What nonsense are you talking about? He has something to talk to me about. I won't accompany you. I will pay for the massage."

Gu Xueqian always felt that something was going to happen. She pretended to laugh lightly and prepared to take a shower before leaving.

As soon as Zhong Kexin heard that someone was leaving, she became anxious. Seeing that the person had gone far away, she shouted, "You bastard! Didn't you ask me to come out? Why did you leave me alone?"

"I will make it up to you next time!"

Hearing Gu Xueqian's reply, her dissatisfied expression finally eased up a little.

Zhong Kexin laid back down on the bed and gestured for him to continue pressing.

Gu Xueqian quickly packed up and returned home to find Lu Jingchuan sitting in the living room with a serious expression on his face - it seemed as though he had been waiting for her to come back.

She subconsciously swallowed her saliva as she slowly walked up to him and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"You still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong? Tell me the truth, did you go to my grandfather's place?"

As soon as Lu Jingchuan saw Gu Xueqian appear, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger rise up within him. He didn't care about anything else - he was so angry at her that he forgot that Old Master Lu had asked him to apologize.

When Gu Xueqian heard this, she immediately understood what was going on. Seeing that she had been discovered, she no longer controlled her temper and said, "What's wrong with me going to your grandfather's place? You're doing things secretly, and you don't allow me to complain? Let me tell you, Lu Jingchuan - you're with me now - you have to behave yourself and stop thinking about cheating on me!"

Her words were so harsh that Lu Jingchuan couldn't help but feel even more enraged. He stood up abruptly and demanded in a low voice, "Say that again."

Even though Lu Jingchuan was usually a man of few words and looked like a soft persimmon that could be easily squashed, it wouldn't be the same if he really got angry.

Gu Xueqian was a head taller than her - as such, she had to look up at him whenever she looked at him.

But even so, Gu Xueqian did not plan to give up just like that.

She swallowed and pretended to be calm, "Not only do I have to say it again, I have to say it ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times! That bitch Gu Ziyan actually seduced a married man! Shameless! Ah!"

Just as Gu Xueqian finished speaking, she felt a pain on her cheek, and in the next second, she fell onto the sofa.

Gu Xueqian covered her flushed face and stared at Lu Jingchuan in disbelief - she couldn't believe what she'd just heard.

Lu Jingchuan had only done such a thing because he was in a state of agitation - he couldn't help but feel a little taken aback for a moment. However, since the fight had already started, it would be counterproductive for him to back down now.

He straightened his back and pretended to be serious, "Remember, don't say anything wrong about her in the future."

And then he turned around and went back to the bedroom.

Gu Xueqian, who'd been slumped on the sofa, couldn't help but stare at Lu Jingchuan's retreating figure - she couldn't help but feel a malicious glint in her eyes.

She really hadn't expected Gu Ziyan to still be so charismatic - she hadn't expected such a thing to happen after she'd finally managed to snatch Lu Jingchuan away from her!

"Gu Ziyan, just you wait." Gu Xueqian gritted her teeth and muttered.

On the other side, Lu Jingling was rushing towards Gu Ziyan's place. When he reached the door, he rang the doorbell without even taking a breath.

Gu Ziyan had just let Gu Anning out of the bedroom when the doorbell rang again. She frowned, not knowing who it would be this time.

"Be good and stay here. Mommy will go and open the door."

"Okay."

Gu Ziyan walked to the door of the Mysterious Gate and opened it. When she saw Lu Jingling's worried face, she felt even more helpless.

Did she kick the Lu family's door today? Why were all the Lu family members here today?

"What do you want from me?" Gu Ziyan restrained her emotions and said lightly.

Seeing that Gu Ziyan was fine, Lu Jingling could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He slowed his breathing and said, "Yes, nothing. I just wanted to see the child."
