Upon hearing Lu Bozhou's words, Jiang Mian's face turned almost red.

His tone was actually quite calm and composed.

But Jiang Mian somehow sensed a hint of resentment from Zhong Wuyan when there was trouble and from Xia Yingchun when there was none.

Lu Chaochi was stunned for a moment, then quickly stirred things up from the side.

“Yes.” Lu Chaochi’s eyes crinkled with a smile. “Mianmian, you can’t do that. It’s not a good habit. Don’t learn from my dad.”

"I...learn from him?" Jiang Mian was taken aback.

Lu Bozhou frowned and looked at Lu Chaochi.

Lu Chaochi then said to Jiang Mian, "Yes, when Dad wants to have a heart-to-heart talk with me, I'm like, 'Son, little stone, be good.'"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian quickly realized what Lu Chaochi meant by 'speaking from the heart'.

Perhaps it was something he mentioned about Jiang Mian that Lu Bozhou had told him before.

Upon hearing this, Lu Bozhou frowned, his tone displeased, "Lu Chaochi."

Lu Chaochi shrugged and continued, "When I don't want to confide in you, that's Lu Chaochi."

"Shut up," Lu Bozhou said calmly.

Jiang Mian looked at Lu Chaochi, then at Lu Bozhou.

The man's voice was devoid of emotion, as calm and even as ever.

But now, the environment, the atmosphere, and the scene have inexplicably given me a sense of warmth.

You might even have fantasized about such a scene yourself.

Jiang Mian could sense that her relationship with both Lu Bozhou and Lu Chaochi was getting closer.

Jiang Mian didn't even know if this was right, or if it went against her original intentions after her rebirth.

The next day, she planned to continue looking for real estate agents and check out apartments.

Regardless, perhaps it's because the distance was too close, blurring the vision and making it difficult to see clearly.

Perhaps we should keep some distance and observe further.

Jiang Mian found a real estate agent, but hadn't had a chance to see her first house yet.

A phone call came in immediately.

"Jiang Mian." Lu Bozhou's voice came from the other end.

Even though there was no particular tone or emotion in the other person's voice, Jiang Mian could still sense that the other person was in a bad mood.

"What are you doing?" Lu Bozhou asked, but there was no question in his tone.

It was obvious that the other party already knew what she was doing.

"I'm planning to go see an apartment with a real estate agent, and if it's suitable, I intend to rent it."

"What do you want to do?" The man's voice was even lower, and the hoarseness in his voice seemed to have worsened.

"Uh, the mansion is too far from the school."

Jiang Mian said, "I've already completed the procedures for returning to school, and I still need to go to class. But I don't want to neglect taking care of Xiao Shitou."

"and then."

"I plan to rent a house closer to the school," Jiang Mian said. "So that I won't waste time commuting outside of class and can take care of Xiao Shitou."

The man remained silent.

He seemed to have been silent for a long time.

Jiang Mian was even unsure whether to hang up the phone directly.

Then a deep male voice came from the other end of the line, "And me?"

Jiang Mian was stunned. What did he mean by "him"?

“Anyway, you don’t come home often. Xiao Shitou said he’s very busy on weekdays and doesn’t come home much. I’ll take Xiao Shitou back to the mansion on weekends.”

Jiang Mian was still thinking about what would happen if the man rejected the proposal.

What alternative plan should I choose?

Although Lu Bozhou still did not agree, he did not show any sign of rejecting it either.

After ending the call.

A short while later, the agent went out to answer a phone call.

After receiving the call, the real estate agent smiled and said to Jiang Mian, "Ms. Jiang! I have a house that perfectly matches your requirements. Shall I take you to see it now?"

"The location is just one stop away from your school. It only takes about ten minutes to walk there or a few minutes to ride a bike."

"The surrounding amenities are also good, as it is located near the University Town business district, but the community is not too low-end, so there is no need to worry about too many college students renting there."

"The rent is a little more expensive than the other apartments I found for you before, but the environment is definitely much better!"

"Trust me! This kind of environment is more suitable for children. Aren't you going to live here with a child? Safety and environment are quite important."

The agent made it sound incredibly convincing.

This last point really resonated with Jiang Mian, and she immediately decided to go with the agent to take a look; she couldn't miss this opportunity.

As soon as Jiang Mian entered the community, she felt it was very nice; the community environment was excellent.

The hallways and elevator lobby were also very clean.

The apartment isn't very big, but it's very bright and spacious.

Jiang Mian was quite satisfied. The rent was about a third higher than her budget, but she gritted her teeth and still booked it!

The agent said the homeowner was abroad and gave him a power of attorney; the contract could be signed with the agent.

Jiang Mian also sent the contract to Gong Yan for review.

There was no response from Gong Yan, so Jiang Mian had to call her.

"How's it going? Is there anything wrong with the contract?"

Am I your lawyer?

“You’re my darling,” Jiang Mian said without hesitation.

Gong Yan scoffed on the other end, "Sign it."

"Is there a problem with the contract?"

"Even if there are problems, I can't sell you out." Gong Yan said calmly, "I'm hanging up now, I'm busy with work."

After ending the call, Jiang Mian happily went to sign the contract with the agent.

After ending the call, Gong Yan glanced indifferently at the contract in her hand.

She printed it out right after Jiang Mian sent it over.

I even immediately asked a friend at the housing bureau to help me check.

I learned that the house had changed hands before, and the first owner was Lu Bozhou.

That silly girl thought she had gotten a great deal.

Little did she know, the man had woven a net, waiting for her to jump in.

Gong Yan was hesitant, unsure whether to remind her or let her have her way.

That's why I haven't replied to Jiang Mian yet.

It wasn't until Jiang Mian couldn't help but call to ask her about it.

Gong Yancai made her decision.

Yes, Jiang Mian's past life is already a past life.

That fool Jiang Mian remained trapped in Lu Bozhou's web until his death, completely unaware and suffering terribly.

But this is already this lifetime.

Jiang Mian still has a bright future ahead of her.

As for who is the devil weaving the web between Jiang Mian and Lu Bozhou in this lifetime, that's still uncertain.

Jiang Mian signed the rental contract.

Preparations for the move began very quickly.

Lu Bozhou hadn't been home for several days, and even Jiang Mian wanted to remind him to change his dressing and check on the healing process.

We can't get in touch with anyone.

Lu Chaochi, on the other hand, cried a lot, thinking that Jiang Mian was leaving.

But when he learned that Jiang Mian would take him to live with her, the child immediately stopped crying and started smiling.

They happily started packing their things.

Although I was a little reluctant to leave the mansion, I was also looking forward to coming back on the weekend.

It carries a hint of going on vacation.

On the day she was preparing to move, Song Xun brought a moving company to help her.

Jiang Mian couldn't help but ask, "Assistant Song, where is Lu Bozhou?"
