“Alright, Teacher Jiang, you should rest early too.”
“Xiao Rou, are you free these two days? I can return the necklace to you. Thank you so much. Why don’t I treat you to a meal?”
“Alright, then Teacher Jiang, you can set a time and place. I’m fine with anything.”
Lu He frowned. Was this person really Jiang Fei?
Looking at her father’s shocked expression, Lu Rou smiled proudly. “l didn’t lie to you, right? Look, he still calls me Xiao Rou. Hmph, I haven’t agreed to be with him yet. It’s better for him to call me Miss Lu now, but on account that he’s Jiang Fei, I won’t argue with him about these details…”
Lu Rou kept talking. Lu He immediately interrupted her and asked, “How did the two of you meet?”
Lu Rou briefly explained how Jiang Fei had helped her during the recording of the second episode. “l guess he fell in love with me at first sight. This kind of thing should be easy to understand.”
Lu He looked at Lu Rou strangely. Self-confidence was not a bad thing, but wasn’t Lu Rou a little too confident? Although Lu He still didn’t believe that someone like Jiang Fei would like his daughter, the chat history couldn’t be fake. Jiang Fei did seem to have a good impression of his daughter.
Lu He glanced at the chat history again and noticed a sentence. He asked in confusion, “Necklace? What necklace?”
Lu Rou took back her cell phone and lay on the sofa. She rolled her eyes and said, “It’s that blue and purple butterfly necklace. Don’t you remember?”
Many years had passed. Lu He thought for a while before remembering that Lu Rou had snatched the blue-purple butterfly necklace from Lu Zhen not long after she came to the house.
Lu He frowned bit by bit.
Lu Rou was lying on the sofa and playing with her phone. When she looked up, she saw the extremely serious and gloomy expression on Lu He’s face. Lu Rou was shocked and sat up straight. She asked carefully, “Dad, what’s wrong?”
At noon the next day, Lu Rou came to a Chinese teahouse that Jiang Fei had chosen and walked up the wooden stairs. When she reached the second floor, she saw Jiang Fei wearing a white retro shirt with silver patterns. He looked like a graceful young master from an ancient poem.
Lu Rou looked at Jiang Fei in a daze and instantly had the urge to turn around and escape. She clenched her fists and thought of what her father had told her before she came here today.
Jiang Fei saw Lu Rou and greeted her. Lu Rou squeezed out a smile and sat opposite Jiang Fei.
Jiang Fei took out the menu that had been designed as a painting and handed it to Lu Rou, asking her to order her favorite dishes.
“You young people don’t usually come to such a teahouse to eat, but the food here is really good. There are modified dishes and classic old capital flavors. You won’t be disappointed if you order anything.” Jiang Fei seemed to be in a good mood, and his tone was as gentle as the spring breeze.
Lu Rou looked at the menu. The words on it seemed to float up and fly around in front of her. Her body tensed, her fingers clenching nervously around the edge of the menu. A few minutes later, Lu Rou handed the menu to Jiang Fei.
Jiang Fei glanced at it and added a few more dishes. Then, he called the attendant over and handed the menu to her.
While waiting for the dishes, Jiang Fei picked up an exquisite-looking paper bag and handed it to Lu Rou. “Thank you for lending me the necklace. It’s back to its rightful owner.”
Lu Rou stared at the paper bag Jiang Fei handed her. After a few seconds, she took the paper bag and said in a hoarse voice, “It’s just a small matter. Teacher Jiang, you’re too polite.”
Jiang Fei was an actor. Ever since he saw Lu Rou, he felt that something was wrong with her. After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Fei asked cautiously, “Are you unhappy today?”
Lu Rou looked up suddenly. As expected, Jiang Fei saw that something was wrong with her. Before coming to the appointment today, Lu He had analyzed various situations. Lu He said, “Jiang Fei is an actor to begin with. If you want to hide your inner emotions in front of him, there’s a high chance that you’ll fail. Previously, you showed your true self in front of him, so he didn’t think anything was wrong. But now that you know the truth, there’s a risk of being discovered if you disguise yourself in front of Jiang Fei.”
Seeing that Lu Rou was silent, Jiang Fei picked up the purple sand teapot and took a teacup. He poured a cup of tea for Lu Rou and placed the teacup in front of her. Jiang Fei said gently, “Did you quarrel with your family? Or is it something else? It’s fine if you don’t want to say it. However, if you trust me, you can tell me. I’ll be a good listener..”
