Young Master Lu's Lovely New Bride

Around this time last year, Lu Enterprises had suddenly gotten into a mess.

From then on, Lu Boyan had always been very busy.

Su Jian’an felt she had not walked so leisurely with Lu Boyan in a long time.

On the path, the tall plane trees were planted along the way to the end of the path. The tree canopy was like an opened green oil-paper umbrella, hanging high above the road. Several rays of sunlight were seen from between the branches and leaves, leaving pieces of golden sunshine on the ground.

It was obviously a summer day, but the heat was being miraculously removed by the wind blowing through the plane trees. Moreover, the wind carried a trace of coolness, which made people feel refreshed and cool.

Su Jian’an held Lu Boyan’s hand and wantonly enjoyed the rare leisure time.

When they were about to return to the hospital, Su Jian’an suddenly noticed that a black business car had been following them for a long time.

She pulled Lu Boyan’s cuff. “Did you notice that?”

“Yeah,” Lu Boyan said calmly, “they started following us twenty minutes ago.”

Su Jian’an was a little worried. “Who is it? Will it have any effect on us?”

“They should be reporters working for some magazine.” Lu Boyan gave Su Jian’an a reassuring look. “Before they release the magazine, Yuechuan will read the articles first. If there is something wrong, Yuechuan won’t allow their publishing.”

Seeing Lu Boyan’s reassuring look, Su Jian’an suddenly realized that Lu Boyan depended on Shen Yuechuan to a certain extent.

Perhaps it was because Shen Yuechuan knew him and also his bottom line, so Shen Yuechuan could help him deal with many trivial things properly, so that he could devote himself to work.

While thinking, Su Jian’an walked in front of Lu Boyan and turned to face him. “If someone else takes over Yuechuan’s position, do you think he will be better than Yuechuan?”

Lu Boyan did not even consider it for half a second. “It would take him a few years.”

Su Jian’an pursed her lips and suddenly thought of an unreasonable question, “Then, what about Yuechuan and I… who is more important to you?”

Lu Boyan glanced at Su Jian’an and seemed to be a little surprised. After a while, he said, “I can’t live without you, and the company can’t live without Yuechuan. Are you sure that I have to give you an answer?”

“You don’t have to.” Su Jian’an tilted her head and smiled. “I was just kidding.”

After that, Su Jian’an continued to step back. The sun frequently shone on her body, making her smile more beautiful and brighter.

Lu Boyan had no choice but to hold Su Jian’an’s hand and say, “Don’t walk like this, or you will trip.”

Su Jian’an took another big step back, and she smiled like a willful child. “You’re holding my hand, so I’m not afraid!”

The two of them reached a crossing. After a turn, the hospital was not far ahead.

Su Jian’an kept walking backwards. When she turned the corner, she didn’t notice that she was very close to the road. Lu Boyan was about to remind her when an SUV suddenly came from behind her and swiftly drove past the border line between the road and the sidewalk.

Su Jian’an just felt that there was something getting closer. Before she had time to look back, a unique hot wind brought by the cars in the summer had surrounded her. She realized the danger and subconsciously walked back to the sidewalk.

Lu Boyan had long noticed that something was off about that menacing car. He instantly pulled back Su Jian’an, who was on the edge of danger, and Su Jian’an ended in his arms.

“What’s wrong?” Like a frightened animal, Su Jian’an looked up at Lu Boyan uneasily.

Lu Boyan held Su Jian’an in his arms while fiercely staring at the car that moved close to them.

The numbers on the black Land Rover’s license had a tinge of arrogance.

If he remembered correctly, that vehicle belonged to someone he knew.

The Land Rover slowed down shortly after driving past Su Jian’an. The window beside the back seat was slowly rolled down. Kang Ruicheng poked his head out and waved at Lu Boyan from afar. He seemed to be greeting his old friend.

“Sure enough, it’s him.”

Lu Boyan instantly looked gloomy.

If his eyes could magically cast ice like in the mythologic stories of Northern Europe, Kang Ruicheng’s car would have been turned into a block of ice by then.

Su Jian’an noticed that there was something wrong with Lu Boyan. Just as she was about to look back, Lu Boyan suddenly grabbed the back of her head and held her steadily in his arms. “Don’t look back.”

Su Jian’an had a strong feeling. “It’s Kang Ruicheng, isn’t it?”

Lu Boyan held Su Jian’an tighter. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

“Okay.” Su Jian’an nodded and hid in Lu Boyan’s arms.

She wasn’t afraid. She was just worried.

During this period, Kang Ruicheng seemed to have disappeared without a trace, so that she almost forgot about this dangerous person.

“Why did Kang Ruicheng suddenly appear now?

“Moreover, he just drove like that on purpose, didn’t he?”

Su Jian’an was still thinking while Kang Ruicheng’s car had already left.

Only then did Lu Boyan let go of Su Jian’an and looked at her up and down. He knew that she wasn’t injured, but he still asked with concern, “Are you hurt?”

Su Jian’an shook her head. “No.” She hesitated and asked, “Is Kang Ruicheng coming for us?”

“… It may just be a coincidence,” Lu Boyan said.

Su Jian’an felt puzzled and also a little curious. “Why are you so sure?”

Lu Boyan said after a while, “Xu Youning was also in the car.”

If Kang Ruicheng was going specially after Su Jian’an, he wouldn’t have been with Xu Youning.

“…”

Su Jian’an fell into silence.

If there was anything that still concerned her at this time, it would be Xu Youning.

Kang Ruicheng was such a cruel man. How could Xu Youning live well with him?

If Xu Youning could stand the violent Kang Ruicheng, it could only mean that she had been greatly affected by the death of Granny Xu and remained blinded by hatred.

Su Jian’an was not afraid of being Xu Youning’s enemy.

What she feared was Xu Youning’s reaction, if she ever discovered that she had been living in a well-organized lie and conspiracy, and that she had always believed in the wrong things…

If it came to pass, the damage Xu Youning would suffer would definitely be just as strong as the blow brought by the death of Granny Xu.

“Jian’an?” Lu Boyan called her, bringing her thoughts back to reality.

Su Jian’an looked up at Lu Boyan. “How did Youning look?”

“I can’t tell,” Lu Boyan said, “I could only vaguely see her sitting in the back seat.”

“She’s an adult, so she should be taking good care of herself.” Su Jian’an smiled bitterly. “What I want to know is whether she said anything when Kang Ruicheng ordered the driver to veer close to me…”

Lu Boyan grabbed Su Jian’an’s shoulder as if to force her to face reality. “Jian’an, she’s no longer the Xu Youning you knew.”

What Lu Boyan really meant was that Su Jian’an no longer had to think about it. Xu Youning might not have reacted at all to Kang Ruicheng’s intention to hurt her.

However, Su Jian’an obviously hoped that Xu Youning would not be able to bear it.

All in all, it was because Su Jian’an had always believed that Xu Youning was kind.

However, the one Su Jian’an used to know was not the real Xu Youning. At that time, Xu Youning had always been acting, and she had even fooled Mu Sijue.

Su Jian’an had always listened to Lu Boyan’s words. She only doubted when it came to Xu Youning.

After thinking for a while, Su Jian’an changed the topic. “How’s Sijue recently?”

“As usual,” Lu Boyan said, “He’ll be visiting City A in a few days.”

Su Jian’an thought for a moment and asked, “Has he forgotten Youning?”

“How could it be so easy?” Lu Boyan held Su Jian’an’s hand. “Let’s go back.”

Su Jian’an replied with a “Yeah”, then she held Lu Boyan’s hand and followed him.

She might be selfish, but she hoped that Mu Sijue still remembered Xu Youning.

If that was the case, if Xu Youning was willing to come back, then it would still be possible for them to be together.

When Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an returned to the hospital, Kang Ruicheng’s car stopped at a certain junction.

It was Xu Youning who forced the driver to stop the car.

She had ordered the driver once, but without Kang Ruicheng’s permission, the driver did not pay much mind to her words. She gave the driver’s seat a strong kick, making the driver lose control. The car rushed out of the road and was forced to stop.

Kang Ruicheng growled unhappily, “A Ning, enough!”

“I should be the one asking if you’re crazy!” Xu Youning stared at Kang Ruicheng with red eyes. “Just now, the car almost ran into Jian’an!”

“You also said it, almost.” Kang Ruicheng didn’t take it seriously at all and sneered. “Besides, didn’t you see Lu Boyan? It’s not so easy to hurt Su Jian’an under his nose.”

“If there’s a chance, would you really run her over?” Xu Youning shook her head. “We made an agreement that I would help you deal with Mu Sijue as long as you don’t hurt Jian’an!”

Kang Ruicheng looked at Xu Youning with a dangerous look. “A Ning, you are too excited. I just happened to see them and wanted to scare Lu Boyan. You don’t have to do this. Or… did you think about someone when you saw Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an?”

Xu Youning sneered and said, “Who are you referring to? Mu Sijue?”

Before Kang Ruicheng answered, Xu Youning had added coldly, “Even if I don’t see Jian’an or Lu Boyan, I would always think about him. He’s the one who killed my grandmother. How can I forget him?”

Kang Ruicheng raised his lips and wore a satisfactory smile. “A Ning, do you know how charming you are when you look like this?”

Xu Youning opened the door. Before she got out of the car, Kang Ruicheng had already noticed her movements and asked in a low voice, “Where are you going?”

“I’m worried. I’ll go to the hospital to see Jian’an,” Xu Youning said, “It’s easier to sneak into the hospital than into the Lu family’s villa.”

Without waiting for Kang Ruicheng’s reply, Xu Youning opened the door, jumped out of the car and walked away without looking back.

The driver looked at Xu Youning’s back through the rearview mirror and asked Kang Ruicheng doubtfully, “Brother Cheng, is it normal that A Ning cares so much about that woman?”
