After the internship location was confirmed, they could basically leave school. Lin Jiaran packed her things. Her sister called her in the morning and said she would pick her up and asked her to wait downstairs in the dormitory.

Xu Hui's things had already been taken back by her family, so she simply carried a bag and stood beside the luggage with Lin Jiaran waiting for her sister.

"My brother told me to go home immediately." Xu Hui answered a phone call.

"Go ahead!" Lin Jiaran waved her hand and let her go first.

"Tomorrow at Mantingxiang, I have an appointment with two people to have dinner together. I'll message you the time later!" Xu Hui whispered in Lin Jiaran's ear before leaving, and gave her a look that showed she understood immediately. Lin Jiaran made a gesture to her knowingly.

"Coming, coming!" Xu Hui's phone rang again, and she left while talking on the phone.

Lin Jiaran's phone rang again, and the caller ID showed it was her sister calling.

"Where are you?"

"I have something urgent to do and can't come. Lu Jingshen is nearby and happened to be returning to Baiyun District. I asked him to take you with him. I think he should be at school by now."

"did not see it."

"Please wait a moment. I'll call and ask again."

"Oh." Hang up the phone.

Just after she hung up the phone, a business car stopped next to her. She turned around and saw Lu Jingshen sitting in the back seat with the window rolled down.

"Have you finished getting your stuff?"

"I've got it, just these two boxes." The driver got out of the car to help her with the luggage.

"Sit in the back, there's no room in the front." Lin Jiaran was about to open the passenger door when Lu Jingshen looked at her and said this.

She didn't see anyone sitting in the front, so she ignored what he said and opened the door. As expected, there was no seat. There was another box, so she had to close the door. Lu Jingshen pressed the back door switch and the door opened automatically.

"Lin Jiaran, you still have something to take."

When she was about to get on the bus, a handsome boy not far away shouted at her loudly, holding a bag in his hand.

She turned sideways and took a few steps toward the person who called her.

"Team Leader Li, I forgot to take something." The person who called her was the monitor of their class, Li Minglin, who was handsome, upright, and a top student with excellent grades in all subjects.

"Didn't you say that I can't fall in love before I graduate from college? This is a gift for you. I hope you can consider me."

"What is this?" Li Minglin took the exquisite bag and held it in her hands. Lin Jiaran was a little slow to react.

"Don't rush to reply. Even if you don't agree, just consider it as my birthday present to you." Li Minglin said and left. When Lin Jiaran wanted to return the things, he had already run far away.

She took her things and walked towards the car.

"Didn't you say you had taken everything?" Lu Jingshen glanced at the things in her hand and asked her.

"A classmate gave it to me."

"Was that your classmate just now?" He withdrew his gaze from her, his brows slightly furrowed, but his voice was steady and no bad emotion could be heard in it.

"The monitor of our class." Lin Jiaran took out her cell phone and sent a message to Xu Hui. After all, she had been infatuated with Li Minglin for a while before, but he was too outstanding and self-disciplined in his studies, while she was decadent and lazy and had no interest in studying. She felt a little out of place with him. Apart from his good looks, she did not have any feelings for him.

"Did he confess his feelings to you?" After a moment of silence in the car, Lu Jingshen suddenly spoke again.

"Did you hear that just now?" Lin Jiaran paused typing, turned around and asked.

"Guessed it." He turned his head and unexpectedly met her eyes. His eyes quickly shifted away and he sat up straight and looked forward.

"That's a pretty accurate guess."

"So you agree?" After hesitating for a while, he spoke slowly.

"No." Lin Jiaran answered him slowly while typing on her phone and chatting with someone.

"You've already accepted their things but you still haven't agreed?"

"What did you promise? I just wanted to return it, but he ran away."

The person who was playing with his phone didn't notice that the person next to him relaxed his brows after hearing what she said, and his expression also relaxed a lot. He wanted to marry her at all costs, but he was afraid that she was thinking about someone else. He was selfish and wanted not only to get her but also to occupy her heart, so he was relieved when he was sure that she didn't agree.

Just as she got home, Lin Qing drove back. The driver was still taking her luggage out of the car, and Lu Jingshen hadn't left yet.

After her sister came and moved her luggage into the house, she went in first and automatically made room for the two of them.

"Everyone has gone in, can't you take your eager eyes off?" Lin Qing got out of the car, walked to Lu Jingshen's side, looked in the direction of her door, and whispered.

"Let's go to the Lu family tonight." He retracted his gaze, glanced casually at the person who kept a distance from him, and said this as he walked past her.

In the evening, Lin Qing and Lu Jingshen walked into the Lu family together. They walked side by side, but deliberately kept a distance from each other.

"Oh, it's a rare occasion that you two appear in the same frame today!" Lu Jingchuan walked out of the house with the car keys in his hand and met the two people who came in.

"Where are you going?" Lu Jingshen glanced at him and asked when he saw the key in his hand.

Lin Qing acted as a transparent person and watched the two brothers communicate throughout the whole process.

"My grandfather asked me to pick someone up." Lu Jingchuan said as he passed by him. Lu Jingshen glanced at him warily.

"Why are you looking at me like that? He only told me to pick someone up, but he didn't tell me who! Is it necessary to be so sensitive?" Lu Jingchuan shrugged helplessly.

"Get out." He glanced and spit out a word before walking inside.

In the Lu family's house, Lu Jingshen's second uncle and his family of four were all there. Lu Jingshen's second uncle and aunt were sitting and talking with Grandpa Lu. His cousin Lu Jingcheng was sitting alone playing with his cell phone. When his cousin Lu Jingxue saw them coming, she stood up and walked towards them.

"Brother Shen!" The girl was dressed in a dignified and elegant manner, with a gentle and delicate voice, and greeted Lu Jingshen warmly.

"Yeah." Lu Jingshen responded lightly, without any extra glances at the person who greeted him, and walked forward.

"Your cousin is really well-educated. She always treats me as invisible." Lin Qing couldn't help but complain softly. The real relationship between the two of them was unknown to the Lu family except Lu Jingchuan. However, this cousin was not meeting her for the first time, but every time she and Lu Jingshen walked together, she only greeted Lu Jingshen.

"You and I have nothing to do with each other, why do you care about it?" Lu Jingshen responded to her in a low voice.

"I have nothing to do with you. If my sister is wronged because of her in the future, you will be her ex-husband."

"Impossible." He said with a firm gaze.

"I hope so."

Lu Jingchuan waited for someone at the roadside of Fashion Street according to the location his grandfather told him. He waited for two minutes and the person showed up, but...

"It can't be you?" Lu Jingchuan got out of the car and walked over. Lin Jiaran just walked over.

"You're coming to pick me up?" Lin Jiaran looked at Lu Jingchuan and raised the same question.

"You do not know?"

"What should I know? Your grandfather called me and told me to go to your house. He hasn't been feeling well lately and asked me to go see him."

"Then get in the car!" Lin Jiaran walked over, opened the passenger door and got in. Lu Jingchuan was still scratching his head. His grandfather was in poor health? He could drink two taels of white wine at a meal. Is this considered poor health?
