Chapter 42 - Do You Know Lu Bei?
Chapter 42: Do You Know Lu Bei?
She knew how to drive. In her previous life, she had taken a driving test in university. On her 25th birthday, she had even rewarded herself with a white car. She could not be considered an experienced driver, but she was definitely not a killer on the road.
Among the original owner’s ID’s was her driving license.
She nodded honestly. “Yes.”
Lu Wanggui nodded slightly. He took out his car keys and handed them to her. He said gently, “It’s getting late. Can you help me send the two of them home first?”
Xiang Xiaoyuan: “?”
So the big boss wanted to send her away before teaching his son a lesson?
This kind of scene was not suitable for a stepmother to see. Xiang Xiaoyuan thought for a moment. If she refused Lu Wanggui, Lu Wanggui would ask someone to take the two children away, at that time, she would be forced to watch the “friendly exchange” between the father and son.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly said, “Of course.”
“Thank you.” The corners of Lu Wanggui’s mouth curled into a faint smile. “I’ll have to trouble you then.”
The car key was still warm from Lu Wanggui’s hand. Xiang Xiaoyuan curled her fingers before taking the key slowly.
In the private room, Wei Zihang and An Yu did not really want to leave. They had the same thoughts as Xiang Xiaoyuan. They both thought that Lu Wanggui had intentionally sent them away to teach Lu Bei a lesson and he was probably going to use his fist.
But even so, they didn’t dare to resist Lu Wanggui. The two of them left the private room, turning back three times at each step. As Lu Bei’s secret admirer, An Yu’s face was filled with worry, it was as if the person who was in the same space as Lu Bei wasn’t his father, but Lu Bei’s enemy.
After walking out of the private room, without the pressure of Lu Wanggui’s presence, the tense nerves of the two suddenly relaxed. Wei Zihang walked forward with unsteady steps, An Yu lowered her voice and said, “I have something to say to Lu Bei’s stepmother.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan walked in front of them.
Wei Zihang’s drunken brain reacted slower. He asked with his tongue hanging out, “Say what?”
An Yu stomped her feet in anger. “I want to talk to her alone.”
What was wrong with this person? Didn’t he understand her hint?
Wei Zihang leaned against the wall and slowed down for a while before he realized what was going on. “What about me?”
It was not a good time to call for a car. Although he could call the driver to pick him up, his parents would definitely call him the next day and nag at him. He might even get a taste of “bamboo shoot stir-fried with meat”. Wei Zihang shook his head. No, he definitely could not let the driver come over.
An Yu did not care about his problem, “You solve it yourself.”
Wei Zihang: “…”
Seeing An Yu’s serious expression, Wei Zihang rubbed his temples and subconsciously softened his tone, “Alright, then I’ll get my brother to pick me up.”
Walking out of the bar, Wei Zihang dragged his disobedient legs and staggered to Xiang Xiaoyuan’s side, he chuckled and said, “Aunty, I just called my brother to pick me up. You just need to send An Yu home.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan was surprised. She looked down at the time on her phone and said, “Okay. I’ll send An Yu home when your brother arrives.”
Wei Zihang smiled foolishly and waved his hand. “No need, no need. An Yu has a curfew. It can’t be delayed.”
“Is that so?”
Xiang Xiaoyuan glanced at An Yu who had her head lowered and didn’t say anything. She thought for a moment and said, “Then I’ll send An Yu home. You go back to the bar first. Wait for your brother to arrive before coming out. Manager Zhou of the bar knows Lu Wanggui.”
“Okay!”
Wei Zihang patted his chest and promised, “It’s okay. I’m still strong. There won’t be any danger.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan had no choice but to bring An Yu into the car and sit in the driver’s seat. She first got used to the car and the control buttons before slowly starting the engine.
The car she bought before she transmigrated into the novel only cost around 150,000 yuan. It couldn’t be compared to Lu Wanggui’s luxury car. It was impossible for Xiang Xiaoyuan not to panic when she first encountered such a high-performance car. However, after the panic, she was filled with excitement. This was a car that was even more expensive than her house!
“An Yu, where do you live?” Xiaoyuan turned on the GPS.
“Bi Ya Villa.”
“Okay.”
After setting up Bi Ya Villa as her destination, Xiang Xiaoyuan looked at the estimated time of arrival, about 40 minutes. It would take more than an hour to go back and forth. She felt much more at ease, an hour was enough for Lu Wanggui to use his fists or for the father and son to have a heart-to-heart talk.
Xiang Xiaoyuan was not used to it when she first started driving. When the road was smooth, she got more and more comfortable driving. If An Yu was not sitting beside her, she really wanted to disregard her image and shout, “Nice car!”
Xiang Xiaoyuan was not really a chatterbox. She just liked to get to know people. However, An Yu was drinking and her face was red. In addition, she was too young and there was a generation gap in communication. So she did not plan to talk to her much. However, she did not expect An Yu to take the initiative to talk to her.
“Aunty, do you know Lu Bei?”
Xiang Xiaoyuan: “?”
Without waiting for her reply, An Yu said, “You definitely don’t know him.”
