Chapter 172
Ruona woke up leisurely, and the moment she opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar surroundings, she was frightened and sat up with a straight face.
Lifting the blanket, she was relieved when she saw that her clothes were intact.
After confirming that nothing had really happened to her, she took stock of the room.
The room was large, decorated in dark tones, simple and calm, this was a man’s room.
So why was she here?
The memories of last night come back to me, from the cocktail party, to Albert being hit, to meeting Arthraxon.
Shin nettle!
Pupils shrank sharply, as if she had drunk a glass of wine that she had brought over and couldn’t remember anything after that.
“Ruona-san, I’m sorry, I had no choice. If you want to blame Su Tian Ai and the others, just blame them.”
She, who still had a trace of sanity left at that time, seemed to have heard Shen Nettle say such a thing.
As for whether or not she had actually said it, that was unclear to her.
If Su Tian Ai and the others were trying to harm her, then she shouldn’t have nothing happened ah? And she’s not supposed to be here, is she?
But now wasn’t the time to think about that, it was Ethan and the others who should be concerned now, they must be anxious if they couldn’t find themselves.
But where was she now?
With this question, she got out of bed, barefoot on the soft wool carpet, walked to the window, a hand to pull open the heavy curtains, dazzling sunlight instantly leaked a room.
The sudden brightness made her raise her hand to shield herself from the sunlight, and then slowly lowered her hand to look out the window.
A grand and imposing building was in her eyes, the sunlight fell on its glass outer wall reflecting a radiant light.
That was Lu’s property, Belfrek’s landmark building, the Ding Sheng Building.
So, where she was standing now should be the imperial atrium that looked away from it, the luxury apartment building that was over a hundred thousand per square meter.
Once she was sure of her location, she folded back to her bedside and started looking for her phone.
Nothing.
Her phone wasn’t here.
She sat on the edge of the bed in exasperation and scratched her hair in irritation.
The idea was to just call Ethan and tell him where she was so he could come over and get her out.
That didn’t seem feasible now.
Then
She raised her eyes to the closed door of the room and her brow furrowed, wondering who it was that had brought her here. What kind of person would it be? Are you trying to do the same thing to her as Sutheen Ae?
Thinking about this, she, who was quite calm, couldn’t help but feel a little panicked.
If she really was the same person as Su Tian Ai, then she was in a very dangerous situation.
She had to find a way to get out from here.
And just as she was thinking hard about how to get out from here, the door of the room opened.
Hearing the sound, she alertly looked up towards the door.
A tall, slender man walked in, and when she saw the man’s face, she stood up in shock.
“How come it’s you?!” She looked shocked.
The man who walked in was the man who played the role of the man from yesterday’s press conference – Yan Hsui.
Yan Hsu slowly walked up to her, smiling gently and lightly, “Is it me who’s surprised?”
Isn’t that a bullshit question? She didn’t even know him, at best she’d seen his TV show, so could she not be surprised?
“Why am I here?” Ruona was not ambiguous and simply cut to the chase.
“Someone drugged you and I saved you.”
A concise answer, but it gave a clear account of what happened last night.
Last night, she was fooled by Shen Nettle’s clean, clear eyes into thinking that she truly met her fan girl, but never thought it was this fake fan girl with bad intentions.
If it wasn’t for him to save her, perhaps she wouldn’t know what kind of deep water she was in.
Her heart palpitating, she looked at Yan Xu gratefully, “Thank you, if it wasn’t for you, I really don’t dare to think about what the consequences would have been.”
Thinking that if he hadn’t been paying attention to her last night, he wouldn’t have even known that those people had done such a thing to her.
Su Tianai, Groven Ji, Nesa Gu, Lin Hai, and Shen Nettle, these people he absolutely wouldn’t let go of one by one.
A trace of bloodthirsty ruthlessness soared in the bottom of his eyes, but it was quickly covered up and replaced with a shallow smile as he said in a gentle voice, “No need to thank you.”
Ruona returned the smile, then pursed her l!ps and hesitantly asked, “Mr. Yan, can I borrow your phone for a moment?”
“I’d like to make a phone call to report my safety.” She added, she was afraid that if she didn’t contact Ethan, he would turn Beining upside down.
“You wait for me.”
With that said, Yan Hsu turned around and left the room, and soon returned to the room with an extra phone in his hand.
He handed the phone to her, and she said “thank you”, then quickly picked it up.
Taking the phone to the window, she dialed the number she had in mind.
As soon as it rang, the phone was picked up.
“Beginnings.” The urgent voice came over.
Hearing the familiar voice, Ruona’s nose was sore, and she choked out, “Ethan.”
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the newest addition to your own website.
“Ruona, where are you?”
Ruona raised her eyes to the Dinosaur Building and replied, “I’m at the Imperial Atrium.”
Ruona told Ethan Lu about last night’s incident, and after hearing that, he only said, “Go downstairs and wait for me, I’ll be right over to pick you up.”
“Mm. I’ll wait for you.” She responded nicely and hung up the phone.
Raising her hand to wipe the tears on her face, she turned around and smiled apologetically at Yan Xu, “The tear ducts are more developed, so”
She shrugged her shoulders helplessly, for Hsuan gazed at her, the depths of his eyes hidden ripples of love, he smiled slightly, “A girl who easily sheds tears has a softer heart than anyone else.”
Just like that little girl who always cried over small animals.
“Brother Yan Xu, the little bird is dead.” Holding the cold body of the dead little bird, the little girl like a porcelain doll cried like a tearful person.
“Mr. Words, Mr. Words.”
Yan Xu, who was immersed in past memories, heard someone calling out to him and snapped back to a pair of pupils full of worry.
There was a moment of stunned silence, but he quickly reacted with a gentle smile, “I’m fine.”
Ruona bit her lip, then asked, “Can I leave now?”
Knowing that she would leave when she woke up, but as soon as Yan Xu heard her say she was leaving, a darkness flashed under her eyes and even the smile on her face became a little forced.
“Yes, I’ll take you down.”
“Thank you.”
Ruona smiled gratefully at him.
He smiled without saying anything, then turned around and walked out first.
In the meantime, looking at his long figure, Ruona’s eyebrows were slightly knitted, wondering if she was sensitive, why did she feel as if his mood had dropped all of a sudden?
Is it because she’s leaving?
Immediately she felt a little ridiculous at that thought, they weren’t related, so why would they be upset that she was leaving?
Skimming her l!ps, she hurried to catch up.
Chapter 173
After going downstairs, Yan Xu accompanied Ruona to stand in the building lobby waiting for someone.
Ruona was a little embarrassed and was busy saying, “Mr. Yan, actually I can do it alone.”
Yan Xu faintly swept a glance at her, “I’m not worried.”
Well, Ruona had nothing to say.
The him that I saw on the poster yesterday, his eyebrows were indifferent, and although he was smiling, he felt that it was hard to get close to him.
The same was true of him at the press conference. Faced with interactions with fellow cast members, he was polite and distant, not overly close to anyone.
But today he gave her a different feeling.
Outwardly cold and warm, he is also a quite sweet and gentle person.
As if discovering some big secret Ruona lowered her head, the corners of her l!ps uncontrollably raised.
In fact, what she didn’t know was that she was special, and only then would Yan Hsui treat her gently.
Ethan Lu walked into the Imperial Atrium building, and immediately saw Ruona standing not far away, as well as a man.
His eyebrows were knitted up, his initial head lowered, while the man was staring at her intently, his face a clearly visible tenderness.
He didn’t walk over, but stood there and shouted: “Beginnings.”
Ruona suddenly heard someone calling her, and the voice was familiar. She hurriedly looked up to follow the voice, and joy spread across her delicate little face as she saw the familiar figure.
“Ethan.”
She ran over happily.
Like a beautiful butterfly, she fluttered away.
As Yan Xu looked at her and the man in her arms, the hands on his side quietly clenched, a layer of haze covering his handsome face and a hint of gloom soaring from his phoenix eyes.
Ethan Lu held Ruona tightly in his arms, feeling her temperature, her breath, the heart that had been hanging uneasily for fear of losing her now slowly fell back to its original place.
He held her so tightly that it hurt her, but she didn’t struggle, just quietly leaned against his chest, listening to the steady sound of his heartbeat.
For a long time, she softly said, “I’m sorry, Ethan, for making you worry.”
Ethan Lu let go of her and looked her up and down, “Are you alright?”
Ruona smiled and shook her head, “I’m fine.”
Then, she turned to look at Yan Xu, the smile on her l!ps deepening a bit, “Ethan, he saved me.”
Ethan Lu followed her line of sight, and his line of sight and that man unexpectedly aligned.
The two men just looked at each other, secretly competing with each other, the dark tide raging.
Ruona didn’t know that they were competing with each other, and introduced Yun Xu’s identity on the side: “Ethan, his name is Yun Xu, he’s the most popular youngster in the entertainment industry right now.
“
The contest between the men ended with Yun Hsu’s polite jaws, and Ethan Lu raised his eyebrows before leading Ruona over to Yun Hsu.
“Thank you for saving my wife.” Ethan Lu politely thanked.
When he heard the word “wife”, Yun Hsu knitted his brows and cast a puzzled look at Ruona.
The latter smiled bashfully, “Well, he’s my husband, Ethan Lu.”
Yun Xu’s face changed suddenly, it wasn’t that he didn’t know Ethan Lu, the president of Universal Entertainment. But he didn’t know that he was originally married, and his wife was actually Chunchu.
“Are you uncomfortable? Mr. Yun.”
Ruona looked at him with great concern as his face was suddenly white.
“I’m fine.” Yun Hsu barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
“But “Ruona felt that he didn’t look like he was fine at all and wanted to say something else, but Ethan Lu stopped him.
“Chunchu, since Mr. Yun isn’t feeling well, we shouldn’t bother him anymore. Let’s go home first, and we’ll thank Mr. Yun properly some other day when he’s feeling better.”
Ethan Lu gave Yun Hsu a deep glance, then nodded slightly, then took Ruona and turned to leave.
Ruona didn’t understand why Ethan was in such a hurry to leave, and when she opened her mouth to ask him, she found that his look was wrong and a little cold.
She accosted him and closed her mouth, turning her head to look at Yan Hsu, who was still standing on the spot.
Was it the bad eyes? His expression looked somewhat sad, like the aching sadness that only comes from the loss of some cherished object.
Yun Hsu quietly watched her leave, during which he saw her look back, that delicate little face as touching as in the past, thinking that she was already someone else’s wife, her eyes sad and heartbreaking.
Even though he could no longer see her figure, he still looked at the direction she left, and only after a long, long time did he withdraw his gaze.
He slowly turned around, standing for too long, his feet have been numb, an unsteady he almost fell, fortunately hiding in the shadows of the bodyguard saw the situation quickly forward to help him.
“Help me investigate Ethan Lu.” He handed over in a cold voice.
The bodyguard respectfully responded: “Yes!”
Then helped him slowly towards the elevator.
Ethan Lu held her hand and walked to the car, then opened the passenger seat door for her to sit in.
Ruona bit her lip, looked at the indifferent looking him and bowed her head to sit in.
“Bang!” The car door closed.
The sound was like a fist hitting her chest, muffling the pain.
On the way out from inside, Ethan didn’t say a word, looked cold and serious, and looked like he was in a bad mood.
She, on the other hand, followed behind him nicely, not daring to say a word.
She thought he was angry because of her capriciousness to attend the wine party, if she hadn’t insisted on attending the wine party, then she wouldn’t have almost been plotted against by Su Tian Ai, then he wouldn’t have had to worry and fear all night.
In the end, it was all due to her capriciousness.
She silently pulled her seatbelt over to fasten it, her hands gripping it tightly as she hesitated to make a deep review of him.
And just then, his deep voice sounded in her ears.
“Beginnings.”
She turned her head, and suddenly there was a darkness, and his l!ps covered it.
A somewhat rude k!ss with a punishing undertone.
Ruona was like a floating duckweed on the water, dizzy from the sudden storm, and could only hold his neck and respond to him gingerly.
The car air more and more ambiguous, his hand from her back slowly caressed down, caressed her sensitive waist, from the hem of the shirt in, gently caress the tender flesh of her waist.
It’s not just a matter of time, it’s also a matter of time before you get to the point where you can’t stop yourself from moaning.
Just when it was almost out of control, an untimely sound rang out.
“Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
Both men froze at the same time, then realized it was Donn Rochelle’s stomach screaming.
“Heh.” Ethan Lu didn’t hold back a light laugh.
And hearing him laugh, Ruona shyly raised her hand to his chest, then pushed him away.
“I’m hungry.” She mumbled a small grunt.
Ethan Lu doted on her and rubbed her hair, “Let’s go home, I’ll make you something delicious.”
Ruona smiled sweetly, “I want eggplant shrimp, stir-fried hollow vegetables, braised fish, and then there’s a tomato and egg soup.”
“Good, I’ll make you whatever you want to eat.” Ethan Lu gave her a sideways glance, his eyes full of spoiling.
With such an interlude, the haze that covered Ruona’s heart dissipated.
Her Ethan was not angry, still so gentle.
Chapter 174
Ever since Ruona disappeared, Albert Lu was all kinds of uneasy, standing not, sitting not, the whole person seemed especially anxious.
Fabia Ying looked at Albert Lu, who had been walking back and forth for an unknown number of times, and couldn’t bear to yell, “Albert Lu, can’t you sit properly? You’re making me dizzy from shaking my head like this.”
Albert deflated his l!ps in aggravation, “I can’t sit down E. If he could sit down, where would he want to walk around?
Fabia Ying sighed helplessly, “Head Lu has already gone to pick up Ruona, so that means Ruona is safe and sound. You just don’t have to worry anymore.”
That’s true, but-.
“I fear my brother’s punishment for me will be quite severe.”
Well, that was what worried him the most right now.
So that was why! Fabia Ying’s eyes snapped open and she didn’t have the good sense to dislike him, “You deserve to be punished by your brother.”
“My dear cousin was exiled to such a barren South Africa, I think my fate is worrying ee.”
Albert shook his head and sighed like the sky was falling.
“People Jerad is just going on a business trip, don’t say it as if he can’t come back.”
Fabia Ying gave him a glance and continued, “As long as you let Ruona plead on your behalf, I’m sure Mr. Lu won’t be too difficult for you.”
Hearing this, Albert’s eyes lit up, “Right, oh, how did I forget that my sister-in-law is still here?”
Fabia Ying rolled her eyes, why was he so stupid?
At this moment, the sound of the door opening came from the entrance, and Albert and Fabia Ying looked at each other, then ran to the entrance at the same time.
“Sister-in-law!”
“Beginnings!”
Upon seeing Ruona who entered the door, they both screamed out at the same time.
Ruona was raw and shocked, and smiled somewhat helplessly, “Are you two trying to scare me to death?”
“Sister-in-law!” Albert Lu excitedly pounced at her with an open hand.
Ruona moved to the side with a disgusted face and he pounced.
“Sister-in-law.” Albert looked towards Ruona sadly.
Ruona smiled wryly, “Albert, are you sure you want to hug me?”
“I “Albert Lu felt a cold gaze fall on him, he slowly looked up, big brother’s iceberg face fell into his eyes, he quickly accosted and explained, “Big brother, I don’t want to hug sister-in-law, not at all.”
Ruona was laughing at the side and trembling, while Fabia Ying coldly scolded, “Wimp.”
She then went forward to hug Ruona, “Thank God, you’re finally back safely.”
“Sorry for making you guys worry.” Ruona patted her back gently, her small face filled with guilt.
Fabia Ying released her, a hint of ruthlessness soared in her eyes, “Chunchu, don’t worry, I will avenge your death, I will never let Su Tian Ai and the others go.”
“Right, add me to that.” Albert Lu echoed on the side, “Damn, do they think my sister-in-law is someone they can bully at will? I’m definitely going to make them return it at ten times a hundred times a thousand times the cost.”
“Albert, chic.” Ruona looked at the two of them with emotion.
It felt so good to have them here.
And just when Ruona dared to move so much that she was about to cry, Ethan Lu’s cool voice floated over.
“Albert, you should worry about yourself first.”
Upon hearing that, Albert Lu’s face of righteous indignation instantly froze, then wailed out, “Sister-in-law, you have to save me.”
“Ignore him!”
Ethan Lu dragged Ruona inside.
“Sister-in-law,” Albert continued to wail.
Seeing this, Fabia Ying shook her head and sighed, patting him on the shoulder, “Fend for yourself, Albert.”
“Fabia Ying, are you particularly happy when you see me like this?” Albert heard the gloating in her voice and asked with dissatisfaction.
Fabia Ying blinked her big eyes in an act of surprise, “Oh my, you’ve actually seen it.”
“Ying, chic, chic!” Albert Lu gritted his teeth and shouted her name.
“Hey, I heard that South Africa is especially full of mosquitoes and germs, so take care of yourself E”
Fabia Ying smiled at him, smiling sweetly and proudly.
Then ignored his hooting and hollering, and walked in with a flutter.
The first thing that I want to do is to get rid of the old man.
“Ethan, actually this incident is not Saint Yao’s fault, so don’t treat him like you did Murphy.”
Ruona pleaded on behalf of Albert Lu, but this time she was really the one who made this, and she didn’t want anyone to be implicated because of her.
Ethan Lu lowered his head and looked straight into her clear pupils, his thin l!ps slightly hooked, “So both you and him will be punished.”
“Huh?” Ruona stared in amazement, “Why should I too?”
“Because you’re not obedient.”
The very simple reason left Ruona speechless, she really wasn’t obedient enough, he had originally forbidden her to attend the reception, she was the one who insisted on attending, and said she could protect herself.
Now that she thought about it, she was sweating.
“Well then, I accept the punishment.” She accepted it openly, “But Saint Yao won’t have to, he was also implicated by me.”
“What? Do you want to be punished on his behalf?” Ethan Lu raised an eyebrow.
“Hmm.” Just at the fact that he called himself sister-in-law, she took it on for him.
He quirked a meaningful smile, “Then I’ll satisfy you.”
Hearing that he had agreed to his request, Ruona was relieved and smiled especially happily as well.
At this point, she still didn’t know what the punishment she faced would be and what consequences it would bring her.
Ruona wanted to eat the food that Ethan Lu had cooked herself, so Ethan Lu let her sit in the living room and chat with Fabia and Albert and the others.
But he went straight into the kitchen to prepare the food.
Fabia Ying peered into the kitchen, and when her sight touched that busy figure, she tsked and shook her head, “The grand young master of the Lu family, the president of Universal Entertainment, can actually cook, no one would believe it if you say it.”
“Isn’t it very mysterious?” Ruona pursued the question.
“More than fantasy, it’s simply unthinkable.” Fabia Ying lamented, then turned to look at Albert, “Albert, do you know how to cook?”
“What for?” Albert Lu didn’t have the good fortune to raise his eyes to look at her, just catching the anticipation in her eyes, his l!ps slowly opening a hint of an evil smile, “Suddenly asking this question of this young master, is it that if this young master will answer, you will have to marry me?”
Fabia Ying was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered and frowned with disgust, “Albert, why are you so narcissistic? Does every girl who asks you that question want to marry you?”
“Of course.” Albert replied nonchalantly as well.
Fabia Ying sent him a big white eye, “Then sorry, Miss Ben is not interested.”
Albert raised his eyebrows and didn’t say anything else.
