Lu Jingye was worried that she would fall down and so, he held her waist as he told her what had happened.

After Zi Yi finished listening to the story, she asked, “Have you caught the person who contacted the Eldest Aunt?”

“I haven’t yet. But Yunxiao is currently monitoring him.”

“When Eldest Aunt was exposed on the spot, what reaction did Eldest Uncle have?”

“He sent her to a house outside.”

“He only did that?”

Zi Yi was a little surprised that Eldest Master Lu did that.

Lu Jingye nodded his head and said, “Eldest Aunt’s desire to control is very strong and having her live outside is equivalent to depriving her of the right to take charge of the main residence. This type of punishment is better than others and also…”

Speaking of this, Lu Jingye had paused for a few seconds before he continued speaking, “Allowing her to live outside can help to fish out the big fish in the dark.”

The man behind the scenes had always been aiming to bring down the Lu Family and he would definitely start with the First Madam who was the easiest to take care of.

Zi Yi nodded her head and thought for a moment. “There’s also Lu Zhiheng and his wife. I feel that Eldest Aunt would definitely instigate them to do something.”

“Yes.”

Lu Jingye and the rest had also thought about this issue. His hand holding onto her waist moved around as he said, “We can ignore this matter. Father and Yunxiao will take care of it on their side.”

Zi Yi’s waist was very sensitive and when Lu Jingye’s fingers moved, her body shivered and her waist went soft. She ended up falling toward Lu Jingye and he caught her.

Zi Yi held onto his neck and blushed slightly as she said, “Don’t move your hands around my waist.”

Traces of a smile flashed past Lu Jingye’s eyes and he said without any sincerity, “Sorry.”

How could Zi Yi not discern that? She tightened her grip around the back of his neck, raised her head, and kissed his Adam’s apple.

In the end, she even stuck out her tongue and licked it.

The next second, Lu Jingye’s grip on her waist tightened, but there was no other action.

Zi Yi increased the distance between them and looking into his eyes that seemed deeper than usual, she released a satisfied smile.

Lu Jingye’s eyes stared at her lips while her Adam’s apple bobbled up and down. He used his hoarse voice and said some serious words, “Do you want to go for dinner now?”

Zi Yi’s lips curled up. She raised her head and approached him again. When there was about a two-centimeter distance between them, she whispered, “I don’t feel like eating dinner. I want to eat-”

She did not manage to get the last word out, as Lu Jingye had pressed his lips onto her lips.

After an in-depth exchange between their tongues ended, Zi Yi sat breathlessly in Lu Jingye’s arms.

His slightly hoarse voice sounded in her ear. “Do you want to eat dinner now?”

Zi Yi looked up and smiled; she reached out her hands and put them on his waist.

Subsequently, she put her hands under his clothes.

The shirt Lu Jingye was wearing underneath his suit jacket had been tucked into his pants. Zi Yi pulled out the shirt, slipped her hands inside and caressed his waist.

Lu Jingye had a narrow but strong waist and his skin was firm, which was a sharp contrast with the softness of her hands.

Zi Yi looked at him with a smile as she touched him.

Lu Jingye knew that she did it intentionally. He controlled his impulse and lowered his head to bite her lips as a punishment.

His voice was deep and hoarse and he breathed out hot air. “Naughty girl. Are you banking on the fact that I won’t do anything to you outside?”

Zi Yi raised her chin and she smiled charmingly. “That’s right~”

Lu Jingye’s hand had also reached into her dress and his palms rubbed her waist. Just when Zi Yi was unable to take it anymore and her waist was trembling, his thumb pressed a certain spot on her waist.

Zi Yi released a moan and her body turned soft.

Lu Jingye lifted her up and put her down on the sofa before he bent down. The first thing he did was to give her a passionate french kiss before he pulled her up and arranged her messy clothes. Subsequently, he held her waist and led her towards the door.

Zi Yi’s cheeks were flushed red and there was a little gleam of tears in her eyes. Her appearance was simply enchanting. When Lu Jingye arrived at the door, he suddenly stopped and spread out his coat to cover her head, thus blocking the view of her face.

He then opened the door and met with Shao Hua who had just come out from the opposite office.

Just as Shao Hua was about to speak, Lu Jingye said, “If there’s anything, tell me tomorrow.”

The both of them left after that.

Shao Hua looked at Zi Yi, whose face was covered and she was basically being hugged from behind as they walked away. He pushed the spectacles on the nose of his bridge and took out his phone to get someone to deliver his dinner.

After hanging up the phone, he sighed deep down inside.

Sure enough, a beautiful woman would cause one to delay his work. Boss said that he would work overtime tonight but the moment the lady boss arrived, he changed his mind.

Zi Yi and Lu Jingye originally planned to go home for dinner. As soon as their car drove out, they received Mrs. Lu’s call.

Zi Yi’s exams ended today and Mrs. Lu wanted them to stay over for a few days.

Thus the two of them headed to the Lu Family’s residence.

It was already around 6 p.m. at that time. When the both of them went in, they saw Lu Jianlin reading the newspaper on the sofa, while Mrs. Lu was cooking milk tea.

The moment Zi Yi went in, she smelled the scent of milk tea.

“Dad, Mom.”

She called out to them sweetly and Zi Yi subconsciously headed to where Mrs. Lu was.

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, “You returned just in time. The milk tea is almost done.”

Zi Yi walked over and watched as Mrs. Lu prepared the milk tea. She was currently pouring cherry juice into the pot and at the same time, she moved the plate of remaining cherries to Zi Yi. “These cherries were just shipped from the other side of the peninsula. They were just picked in the morning and they’re very fresh. Have a taste.”

Zi Yi ate one of the cherries and said, “It’s sweet.”

After she finished one cherry, she took another cherry and fed Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu tilted her head to the side and spit the seed into the trash bin. “You’ve been working so hard for your exams these past 10 days, come stay with me for the coming days? That way, I will be able to prepare some tonic soup for you to nourish your body too.”

Mrs. Lu felt that Zi Yi had starved herself during this period of time.

Zi Yi was originally planning to do something before heading to Country Em with Lu Jingye. However, after hearing what Mrs. Lu said, she thought for a moment before replying, “Then I’ll go back home to do my experiments during the day and at night, Ah Jing and I will come over and stay.”

Mrs. Lu knew that she was busy and she was very satisfied to hear that.

Just as the milk tea was done, Mrs. Lu poured a cup for her.

Zi Yi lifted the cup and impatiently took a sip. The next second, she seemed to have scalded her tongue, as she stuck out her tongue before she continued drinking another sip.

Mrs. Lu found her little gestures adorable and lifted her hand to stroke her head. “Drink slowly, don’t scald yourself.”

Zi Yi looked up at her. “The milk tea Mom cooks is really delicious. It’s the best that I have ever tasted.”

Mrs. Lu instantly felt elated.

The father and son seated on the sofa looked away and Lu Jianlin shook the newspaper in his hands. He did not turn the page and instead, he asked Lu Jingye, “When do you plan to release the evidence related to the He Family?”

Lu Jingye had already made plans in advance. “After I leave the capital.”

The He Family was insisting that Lu Jingye had killed Second Master He. Lu Jingye did not admit it, but he had not done anything else, which caused there to be more and more rumors being spread outside.

Everyone felt that Lu Jingye was admitting to it by remaining silent.

Therefore, the scene of no customers patronizing the Song Jewelry could be seen.

“Many jewelry companies are also preparing in the dark recently. It just so happens that Country Em’s yearly opening of its mine is going to happen soon. I’ll play with them then,” Lu Jingye said.
