Lu Bozhou frowned. "Smiling like a flower, is that normal?"

Song Xun smiled and nodded, "That's probably because you're in a good mood."

Lu Bozhou said nothing in response to Song Xun's words.

Jiang Mian followed Song Xun back to Luocheng, and her life thereafter was no different.

Lu Bozhou then stayed there as originally planned.

Jiang Mian was initially worried that Xiao Shitou wouldn't be able to smooth things over and would need to explain himself.

To my surprise, I only mentioned to the child that his father was away on a business trip.

Goodness, the child didn't ask any more questions.

She seemed uninterested in her father's movements.

Jiang Mian felt somewhat helpless, thinking to herself that this was a confirmed case of a fake father-son relationship.

A week later, the bidding process went smoothly.

Lu Bolin successfully won the bid, and the project proceeded smoothly.

Lu Bolin was quite happy, and several banquets were held.

It was probably not just because they were happy to have successfully secured the project, but also because they were happy that Lu Bozhou's fate was now unknown.

Lu Bolin knew the news; Lu Bozhou was not dead, but was still in the hospital.

Regardless of whether the situation is good or bad, at least he can't come back to Luocheng to cause trouble for him for a while, which is enough to make Lu Bolin feel good.

But Lu Bolin's good mood didn't last long.

Soon, the problems within the project that had been salvaged began to surface!

Although Lu Bolin was not as smart as Lu Bozhou, he was not stupid.

However, it was because it was pried back from Lu Bozhou, and in the process, Lu Bozhou's team also fought with him for it.

He had finally managed to pry back the project, and Jiang Mian had also stolen all the plans and materials related to the project from Lu Bozhou's team.

Therefore, he had no doubts about it at all.

They didn't even conduct any further research; they just snatched it away.

They snatched it only to find it was a trap, and now they're stuck with it!

"Lu, Bo, Zhou!" Lu Bolin said through gritted teeth.

Secretary Zhu said worriedly, "President Lu, what should we do now? It doesn't look good at the moment."

If we give up now, all the money spent on preparations and arrangements in the early stages will be wasted.

But if we don't give up now, no one can predict what will happen next, and we might have to throw even more money into the water.

"Ha, I think he was deliberately waiting for me to fall into this trap. No wonder he hasn't come back. I thought he was about to be hit by falling objects while he was out of town, which is why he didn't come back."

"I thought Song Xun was suppressing the news to avoid unsettling people. Who knew, he might not have done anything at all! He was just trying to lower my guard!"

Lu Bolin gritted his teeth, his face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Secretary Zhu initially thought that perhaps they were just unlucky, which was why the project had a poor outlook.

But the deeper you dig, the more you realize that this might be a trap.

Lu Bozhou deliberately set this trap for them.

"What do you plan to do?" Secretary Zhu asked.

Lu Bolin sneered, "Since he's tricked me like this, I can't let him get away with it!"

Secretary Zhu said, "But Young Master Lu has always been well protected. Since the Zhang Quan incident, Lu Bozhou has spent a lot of money on his protection."

Now, even a fly can't get close to Young Master Lu...

Even if he goes to kindergarten, the kindergarten is completely guarded.

Lu Bolin sneered, "Then let's teach that Jiang Mian a good lesson. Hmph, if the information she brought hadn't been problematic, I wouldn't have fallen into this trap!"

Secretary Zhu had some doubts, "But Lu Bozhou has already used her like this, so she's just a useless pawn, and doesn't mean anything to him."

"Hmph." Lu Bolin chuckled coldly. "Who said it's meaningless? She can at least help me vent my anger."

"Since Lu Bozhou treats her like a useless pawn, it's reasonable for me to teach her a lesson and vent my anger, isn't it?" Lu Bolin's gaze was cold.

"Besides, no matter how bad she is, she's still nominally Lu Bozhou's wife. If she makes a fool of herself, how can Lu Bozhou look good?"

Secretary Zhu nodded in agreement. "That's right, you're right. I'll make the arrangements."

“Although Jiang Mian is also surrounded by guards, they are still more relaxed and easier to manage compared to Young Master Lu’s,” Secretary Zhu said.

Because university campuses are so large, unlike the small space Lu Chaochi had in kindergarten, the people there are relatively fixed, and the space is relatively enclosed.

Nature provides better protection, but university campuses are a different story.

Jiang Mian was unaware of these things, not because she was not vigilant enough.

Instead, she felt the same way; she considered herself a pawn, and a useless one at that, so she wouldn't be targeted or made things difficult for.

So she attends classes as usual every day.

Meanwhile, Lu Bozhou was also preparing to return to Luocheng.

Although Jiang Mian still felt somewhat uncomfortable around Lu Bozhou.

But when she heard that he was going back to Los Angeles, she was still somewhat happy. Well, not exactly happy, but she felt inexplicably at ease.

In short, upon learning that he was coming back, she prepared a delicious meal that day.

After calculating the time until the end of get out of class today, I decided to pick up Xiaoshitou from kindergarten after cooking.

When I got home, Lu Bozhou arrived around the same time, so we could have dinner together.

Jiang Mian had calculated the time quite well, so she prepared to proceed according to the plan.

After class, I went to buy groceries.

Zhan Meng accompanied her, originally hoping to freeload a meal, but upon learning that Lao Lu was returning from his business trip, Zhan Meng wisely refrained from doing so.

"I won't settle for less. You two should enjoy your honeymoon."

Jiang Mian was both amused and exasperated. She bought bags and bags of ingredients and brought them home, preparing everything meticulously.

The ingredients were transformed into exquisite dishes. Jiang Mian even brushed the honey-glazed roasted chicken with sauce and put it in the oven with the timer set.

Only then did he go out to pick up Little Stone.

She didn't take the driver's car; she rode her own electric scooter.

Jiang Mian sometimes rides her electric scooter to pick up her child; she does it on purpose.

Because whenever Song Wan saw her riding an electric scooter, she would frown and tell her that it was unsafe.

Jiang Mian would pitifully say that she hadn't gotten her driver's license yet.

Then Song Wan would take the initiative to drive Jiang Mian and Lu Chaochi back.

Jiang Mian sometimes deliberately rides her electric scooter to pick up her child from kindergarten just so she can hitch a ride with her mother on the way back.

This wasn't the first time she'd done this; she was quite skilled at it.

But I never expected that today's situation would be completely different.

Jiang Mian hadn't ridden far from the mansion when she reached an intersection with very little traffic and was riding well in her lane.

She was hit and knocked over by a car that suddenly rushed out. Although the speed was not very fast, she still fell off the electric bike.

The moment she fell, Jiang Mian thought to herself, "Oh no, my mother was right, it really isn't safe."
