She was sleeping soundly, but her little face was tense and did not relax. It seemed that she had really been wronged. Lu An reached out to smooth her brows, then walked out of the bedroom with his phone. He carefully closed the door without making a sound.
He quickly pressed a string of numbers, put the phone to his ear, went downstairs, and waited for the other party to pick up.
At eleven o’clock at night, Xie He’s phone rang. When she saw the caller ID on the screen, she had an inexplicable bad feeling. When she picked up the phone, she heard Lu An’s angry voice: “Xie He.”
“What’s wrong?”
“What do you think?” Lu An’s tone was unfriendly. “You did this, and now you’re asking me what’s wrong?”
Actually, he did not know anything. He just had a hunch that Jin Nian’s unhappiness had something to do with Xie He, so he goaded her. If Xie He had not done anything, she would not have panicked.
Xie He had been careful for so many years, but in the end, she could not hide it. She was a little flustered and asked Lu An: “Jin Nian told you everything?”
“Even if she doesn’t say anything, are you trying to hide it from me for the rest of your life?”
“Anan…”
“Xie He, did 1 tell you not to get involved in my personal business?”
At three in the morning, Jin Nian woke up in a daze. The bedside lamp was on, and the room was dimly lit. For a moment, she could not tell what time it was, nor did she know where she was. She subconsciously called Lu An’s name. However, no one answered. The room was spacious and quiet. Jin Nian was sitting alone in an unfamiliar room. She was a little scared.
She thought that since Lu An had brought her back, he would not leave her alone. Even if he was going to leave, he would have told her.
Jin Nian got off the bed barefooted and wanted to go downstairs to look for Lu An. However, as soon as she walked out of the door, she saw the curtains at the end of the corridor being blown up by the wind, as if some monster was about to enter the room. Jin Nian was so scared that she turned around and ran. She ducked under the blanket, only showing her head. She took out her phone and called Lu An.
The call went through, and it was very quiet on the other line. His voice was low and hoarse, “You’re awake?”
Jin Nian was a little scared and asked in a childish voice: “Where did you go?”
“I’m outside. I have something to deal with.” Lu An was standing in the living room of Xie He’s villa. He was holding a baseball bat in his hand, and his expression was fierce. His coat had been thrown to the floor, and he was only wearing a thin short-sleeved shirt. Blood flowed down his fingers and dripped to the ground.
The phone rang. Seeing that it was Jin Nian, Lu An threw away the baseball bat in his hand and let out a breath of turbid air before turning around to answer the call. The villa, which was worth millions of dollars, had turned into ruins behind him.
Lu An did not give Xie He a chance to argue. He smashed almost everything he could. The television, coffee table, vase, none of them were intact. This was far from enough. He took out a baseball bat from the trunk of the car and smashed the door and window in front of Xie He.
There were broken furniture everywhere. This house was completely uninhabitable now. This was Lu An. He was used to speaking with force. He did not need to consider the consequences of anything he did. This had been the case since he was young because he had the capital to do whatever he wanted. Even if he made a mistake, there was a large group of people behind him to clean up his mess. Even Xie He did not dare to use her status to act rashly in front of him.
Xie He had worked hard for many years. Although she was also a famous person now, she was still incomparable to the Lu family’s old money. Even if she tried to tie Lu An to her side, Hong Kong had long regretted it and wanted Lu An to acknowledge his ancestors.
Ironically, Lu An’s father, Lu Dongsheng, had had countless mistresses and concubines all these years. However, all of his later children were girls, and Lu An was his only son. The elders in the family only recognized Lu An as their grandson.
Lu An’s temper was also inseparable from his family. Both sides gave him unconditional indulgence. As long as Lu An was happy, they would do their best to even pluck the stars in the sky for him. In the past six years, when Lu An was abroad, Xie He was terrified, afraid that her only son would fall into the arms of the Lu family.
As a middle-aged woman, if someone asked Xie He what was the most important thing in her life, she would say that it was her child.
Xie He sat on the sofa in her pajamas, her face deathly still. She was fine. On the other hand, Lu An’s palm had been cut by something, and blood flowed all over the ground. Xie He took something for him to bandage. He glanced over coldly and said in a cold tone, “Don’t touch me.”
The commotion was so big that all the servants in the house were woken up. They were so scared that they hid in the courtyard and did not dare to go forward to persuade them..
