Lu Yanchen parked his car before the entrance of the gigantic courtyard. When the guard at the entrance saw him, he bowed down in a swift and polite manner. Exiting from his car, that robust body of his made its way into the house in a suave disposition.
The moment Shen Lingshuang caught sight of his return, she rushed forth. However, her expression was a little worried.
Miss Yang is in the study upstairs.
Ok.
Lu Yanchen replied coldly as his eyes darkened. He knew that his old man would not be calling him back for no reason at all.
With a dark face, his strode up to the 2nd floor. At the entrance of the study, he caught sight of his father’s guard, Brother Yan.
Brother Yan pointed at the study’s door.
Senior Official has been waiting for you for some time now.
Lu Yanchen pursed his lips before heading over to knock on the door.
Immediately, a low and gruff voice boomed out from within.
Enter.
There was nothing but silence in the antiquatedly designed study except for the landing of pieces–Father Lu and Yang Sitong were playing chess at the moment. After Lu Yanchen entered, he was ignored just like air at the side.
Yang Sitong took a look at Lu Yanchen before saying to Father Lu,
Uncle, I think we had better forget it. There’s just no way I can win you at this ever.
When he heard that, Father Lu smiled and placed the last piece down, ending that round.
Yang Sitong, who had been thoroughly defeated, eyed Lu Yanchen at the side before sniggering out,
Or perhaps, you can have a round with Yanchen instead?
Father Lu looked at him before commenting in a cold manner,
You’re here,
He then raised his hand.
Sit down.
After entering, Lu Yanchen had been standing by the side the entire time without a single expression on his face, neither did he have any intention of taking the initiative to speak at all.
Is there anything you called me for?
Lu Yanchen did not sit down at all. He had zero intention of playing chess, and his desire to leave the place could not have been made any more obvious.
Father Lu’s face turned black as he hurled the chess piece in his hand angrily into the box, causing a loud sound to reverberate out through the room. Yang Sitong looked over at Lu Yanchen with a shy and nervous look as she twitched her lips, wanting to say something.
Eventually, she called out his name emotionally,
Yanchen…
Lu Yanchen’s gaze shifted as he glanced at her coldly without making a response. A moment later, he said to Father Lu,
I’ve got something I need to settle still. I won’t bother you guys in your chess session.
Father Lu could feel his anger rising all the way up because of this unfilial son of his, and could not wish for more than to whip out at him once more.
However, on account that there was an outsider present, he had to give Lu Yanchen some face no matter what. Hence, he could only glare at his son with a burning rage.
Shen Lingshuang, who was downstairs, could only keep gazing upstairs worriedly, afraid that Father Lu might whip her son because of a disagreement once more.
Before long, she caught sight of Lu Yanchen coming down the stairs and heaved a sigh of relief. Knowing that he was about to leave, she hurriedly asked,
Aren’t you going to have a meal before leaving?
I’ve already eaten.
Shen Lingshuang did not believe that. She felt that it was because of Yang Sitong’s presence that her son did not want to stay any longer.
At that, she caught sight of Yang Sitong chasing from the back with a frightfully pale face, exuding a sense of melancholy from head to toe.
She was really troubled over this as well. However, how could she interfere in the love affairs of these children?
She had wanted to comfort Yang Sitong with a word or two, but she had gone out of the house with Lu Yanchen straight.
Afraid that something might have happened, Shen Lingshuang headed up to the study and saw Father Lu leaning back and forth on his rattan chair.
Miss Yang has gone out with Yanchen? Aren’t you going to get someone to hold them back?
What’s there to hold back? He thinks that he can settle this matter with haste? No way!
The moment Father Lu was done with that, he changed the topic and asked Shen Lingshuang what they were having for dinner.
