Chapter 207 Cake.

But facing Cecilia's rejection, these people were unwilling to give in. Since the Galliodro route was not feasible, they would just go directly to Lu Xiao.

So Lu Xiao discovered that, she didn't know when it started, but she would always meet some people on her way to and from get off work every day. At first, there were only one or two, but later, there began to be more and more people.

And these people wanted to talk to her more often.

Even though Lu Xiao didn't see the purpose of these people at first, she figured it out later. When faced with someone trying to put a bank card in her hand, Lu Xiao dodged and said, "I know you all came to me, but please don't do this. I'm a therapist, and it's my job to treat the S-level males in the shelter. Thank you for your appreciation, but I hope you won't come here again in the future. This is a workplace, so please don't disturb others at work. Thank you."

After Lu Xiao finished speaking, she turned around and left without staying for long.

Teacher Ai Li saw her come in and said, "These people are the best at pretending to be ignorant. Seeing that you didn't refuse them the first few times, they are getting more and more aggressive. I have already notified the security guards and they will disperse these people starting tomorrow."

"Thank you so much, Teacher Ellie. I thought they just wanted to say thank you, but I was wrong."

Seeing Lu Xiao showing a rare look of annoyance, Teacher Ai Li smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "You will understand this kind of thing after you experience it more. Don't think too much. Now everyone knows that you are amazing. It is normal for people like this to exist. You should leave work early today. Don't give them a chance. Let them see your attitude and they will understand."

Lu Xiao did not refuse.

I packed up and left work early.

However, on the way back, Lu Xiao did not take the original route because she was worried about encountering something again.

Although it's a longer detour, you can buy a cake on the way.

Because she found that Cecilia loved sweets, especially those from this dessert shop, so Lu Xiao would occasionally come over to buy a piece to take back.

She made the reservation just before she got off work.

She should be able to get it when she comes here now. She pushes the door open and goes in. She hears the waiter behind the counter look up and say to her with a smile: "Welcome. May I ask... Yes, it's you, Mr. Lu Xiao."

Lu Xiao's heart skipped a beat when she was suddenly recognized. She was so famous now, could anyone call out her name?
Lu Xiao suppressed her inner surprise and looked at the other person: "How do you know me? Have we met before?"

The smile on the other person's face froze slightly, but soon returned to normal: "Mr. Lu Xiao, it's normal for you to forget me, but how could I forget you? You helped me in the Female Protection Association. I don't know if you still remember my name as Platinum. You reminded me at that time to change jobs, so I found this place again. I didn't expect to meet you here. I'm really happy."

Hearing the other party say this, Lu Xiao suddenly remembered: "Oh, it's you. Did they cause you any trouble later?"

"Thanks to you, there is none left. Whatever you choose, can I treat you as a token of my gratitude?"

"No need, I've already paid, you just need to work and live well, don't keep it in mind." Lu Xiao smiled at Bo Jin and took the cake from another waiter, "Nice to meet you, bye."

Seeing Lu Xiao was about to leave, Platinum suddenly ran out from behind the counter, opened the door for her, and said, "Mr. Lu Xiao, can I add your contact information? Of course, I won't disturb you casually, I just want to keep it as a souvenir."

Lu Xiao had just experienced something and was most sensitive to this kind of thing. She smiled and shook her head and refused: "It's not very convenient, and if you add me, every time you see me, won't you think of what happened at the beginning? Look forward, don't keep this matter in mind. Even if it wasn't you, I would have done the same thing. Goodbye, I wish you a happy life!"

After Lu Xiao finished speaking, without staying any longer, he went straight back to his hovercraft and drove away.

Watching Lu Xiao leave, Platinum poked her cheek with his tongue, then curled his lips and smiled: "I was rejected!"

Kro, who came out of the pastry shop wearing a chef's hat, asked, "Did Ms. Lu Xiao really come here just now?" Platinum turned to look at him and said, "You came out too late. She's gone."

They also rejected his request and really didn't give him any chance at all.

Kro pursed his lips, turned around and walked back, then heard Platinum speak again: "She lied to you so much, and you still want to see her. Guess what she will do when she sees you? She will arrest you and send you to prison to await sentencing."

Kro stopped but didn't look back. He just said, "At least she's willing to lie to me."

After saying this, Kro opened the door again and left.

Platinum was left there with gloomy eyes.

When Lu Xiao returned home, Cecilia looked at the cake in her hand with surprise: "My good granddaughter brought delicious food to grandma again?"

"We agreed that you can only eat a small piece. Keep these for later consumption. I will give the rest to the butler and ask him to watch over you. Don't get up in the middle of the night and eat secretly like you did the last time!"

Thinking of being caught eating secretly in the middle of the night, Cecilia blushed and coughed lightly: "Just that one time."

Lu Xiao smiled and said, "Not even once."

"I know, I know." Cecilia said obediently, and suddenly thought of something, "Why did you come back so early today?"

It’s not even time for Lu Xiao to get off work every day.

Lu Xiao sighed and told the story again. Cecilia was not completely surprised: "You just haven't encountered it before, but it's good to encounter it now. I'm afraid this kind of thing will happen to you in the future. You should be mentally prepared."

Lu Xiao nodded: "I know that as the matter of the shelter gradually becomes public, it is normal for some people to have some thoughts. I didn't think about it in those terms before, but I won't think about it now."

It wasn't like she really knew nothing. She could see that those people wanted to win her over.

"You don't have to take it too seriously. They are the ones who need your help. Apart from being a little annoying, they don't really dare to do anything to you." Cecilia said as she reached out for the cake, obviously unable to resist the urge to eat a piece.

Lu Xiao saw it, but did not stop him. Instead, she opened the cake box and asked, "Which piece do you want?"

Cecilia immediately leaned over and said, "Cut from here, where the strawberries are, to here."

"No, it's too big."

Hearing this, Cecilia had to take a step back: "Then start cutting from the strawberries. You can decide how big they are."

Lu Xiao was amused by the old lady's aggrieved look: "If you are obedient and don't eat secretly, I will buy more in the future."

Cecilia was immediately happy when she heard this: "Then I will definitely be obedient!"

It’s not that I can’t afford the cake, it’s mainly because my granddaughter bought it for me, and the taste is different!
