Chu Mubei was particularly speechless right now.

‘This Old Lu! You clearly care about her and do not want her to drink! After all, it’s true that athletes should drink less. Why the hell do you have to put it as though she’s trying to freeload on your beer?’

‘Does this guy just have a low Emotional Quotient or is he trying to hide his heart?’

But for Lu Yanchen to have a low EQ? That was impossible! This guy’s IQ and EQ were both frighteningly high.

If that were the case, he must be hiding his heart then, wasn’t he?

Why then? If he liked this girl, he should just go for her then! Furthermore, there was definitely some ambiguity between them—Chu Mubei could tell that Shi Guang wasn’t feeling nothing at all. Since that was the case, shouldn’t he take a step forward instead?

Could it be still because of that ex-girlfriend?

That nameless ex-girlfriend was really one hell of a character, wasn’t she? Honestly, at times, Chu Mubei had half an idea to get someone to investigate privately in order to get hold of a picture of that girl or something. He had to see for himself just what sort of a heavenly beauty that was.

To think that she could have Lu Yanchen mesmerized to this extent.

That year, he returned home looking all forlorn over his love and had locked himself in his room, giving the entire Lu Family a huge scare.

When one mentioned the Lu Family, they would have to talk about that Old Master of the Lu Family; that was a man of remarkable feats carved out from the war itself.

Even though Old Master Lu had already passed away, when it came to the current generation of the Lu Family—that of Lu Yanchen’s parents—be it in terms of the military or in the business world, they were all still whirlwind figures. Even their descendants were all characters of their own.

This was especially the case for Lu Yanchen, who was practically the role model for all children out there. How could they allow someone like him to fall after just a single blow?

Because of that, they were naturally extremely flustered over his behavior back then.

Growing up in the military compound together, Lu Yanchen was just like a goal in the hearts of everyone.

Later on, the eldest brother of the Lu Family, Lu Yanzhi, kicked down the door to Lu Yanchen’s room and gave him a good beating. It was a beating so vicious that it didn’t seem as though Lu Yanchen was his younger brother at all.

Of course, Lu Yanchen tried fighting back. However, he wasn’t a match—his eldest brother had been in the military for many years and had undergone training.

And just like that, Lu Yanchen went into the military as well.

A certain day half a year later, Lu Yanchen had his eldest brother walloped so badly he could not crawl up from the mud. But, what was he to do? His eldest brother was no longer a match for him by then.

Lu Yanchen was always someone particularly lonely and reserved, someone whose thoughts were totally incomprehensible. Not only that, he would always do things with a certain level of maturity to them.

That was the case for everything except this first love of his.

In order to protect that little lass, he insisted on hiding it from everyone. Rumors had it that back then, that lass was only in her second year of high school.

A single second year lass and she was already this incredible to have Lu Yanchen mesmerized till that extent. Could she have been the reincarnation of a vixen?

After lamenting for a good long time, Chu Mubei finally finished the meal. Noticing that Shi Guang was about to keep the dishes, he hurried up to offer his help. “Little Sister Shi Guang, let me help you.”

Looking at Chu Mubei, whose face was all smiles, Lu Yanchen’s face darkened as he looked at him coldly. “You, come over! I’ve got something to talk to you about.”

“Wait for a moment!”

“Are you very free?”

“Well, not really! I’m super busy. But, I’ll always have the time to help my Little Sister Shi Guang.” As Chu Mubei said that, he cast a single glance of pandering over at Shi Guang.

Lu Yanchen’s gaze turned totally icy by then as he ordered Chu Mubei domineeringly, “Since that’s the case, you’ll wash the dishes then.”

“What!” Chu Mubei was stunned as he pointed to himself. ‘Me? Washing the dishes?’ That expression of his that he gave off was filled with extreme indignance. “How can you ask me to wash the dishes? I’m so busy!”

Lu Yanchen replied indifferently, “Didn’t you just say that you’ll always have time to help out?”

Shi Guang chipped in embarrassedly, “Let me do it.”

Lu Yanchen’s eyelids flitted, “How long more do you intend to stay at my house for?”
