"You told him last night? What did Xingzhi say?" Jiang Yao suppressed the emotions in her heart. She thought she had covered it up fast enough, but she did not know that Mrs. Lu already knew what she was thinking.
Jiang Yao shook her head again. "I got it."
In reality, that question was pointless. Lu Xingzhi most likely did not respond to Mrs. Lu, so he did not get a good night's sleep.
Mrs. Lu exhaled a sigh. "He will undoubtedly ask you again in the future. I know what you are thinking, Yaoyao. You do not want to complicate things for him, so you have to complicate things for yourself. That is not necessary. This time, I will be the villain."
Mrs. Lu patted Jiang Yao's hand on the back. "You—"
There was nothing else she could say, but it was enough to convey Mrs. Lu's and Jiang Yao's helplessness.
