Chapter 596: The Collapse of Mingxing Square
Zeng Zijuan seemed to have thought of this outcome too. She sighed softly and mumbled, “Even if my father agrees to bring my mother back, she probably won’t come back.”
How aggrieved would she be if her leg was injured and her husband misunderstood her?
“Forget it. As long as my mother is happy, it doesn’t matter if she comes back or not.”
Lu Sheng smiled. “Your mother would be very relieved that you think that way.”
From the little ghost’s memories, Lu Sheng more or less understood Zeng Fan’s personality.
He might really be a good father, but he was definitely not a good husband.
They had just finished speaking when Zeng Fan came down.
He prepared two red packets, one for Lu Sheng and one for Chu Yan.
“The two of you are here for the first time and have helped me so much. This small token of appreciation can be considered my greeting gift to you.”
“Thank you!”
Lu Sheng accepted both her and Chu Yan’s portion.
After bidding farewell to Zeng Fan and his daughter, they boarded the Zeng family’s driver’s car and returned to the Lu family.
After alighting, Lu Sheng looked at Chu Yan and said, “I’ll drive you back later?”
Chu Yan was stunned. He frowned and asked, “Can’t I stay for the night?”
“Of course!” Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “If you want to stay, stay. Anyway, it’s not like there’s no room.”
Chu Sihan’s room was essential in every house Lu Sheng had stayed in.
Chu Yan was elated. “Is there a room for me in the capital too?”
“Yes.”
Lu Sheng used her fingerprint to open the door. When she entered, she realized that it was dark inside.
She switched on the lamp helplessly and mumbled, “I guess he brought Elder Sen and the State Minister out to see the world again.”
“State Minister?” Chu Yan pondered and said, “Is he the Brother Bailian that Uncle Lu mentioned?”
“Yes.” Lu Sheng nodded. “It’s him. His real name is Bailian.”
She bent down and placed the phone on the coffee table. She sat on the sofa and smiled at him. “Don’t you find him familiar?”
Chu Yan thought for a while and nodded. “A little.”
He seemed to have heard the name ‘Bailian’ before.
However, he still could not remember where he had heard it before.
Lu Sheng smiled and said in a low voice, “Speaking of which, it was his credit that we met so quickly in our previous life.”
“Oh?” Chu Yan was surprised. “Really?”
“Yes.” Lu Sheng nodded. “There was a rumor in my previous life that you couldn’t live past thirty. You had to marry me to get out of danger and live a long life.”
Upon hearing Lu Sheng mention this, Chu Yan was suddenly enlightened. “I remember now. Although I didn’t dream of this person in my dream, I once heard in my dream that our marriage was appointed by the State Minister.”
Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. “Yes, he was the one who appointed our marriage.”
“No wonder it feels familiar.”
Chu Yan mumbled before sitting on the sofa.
—————
When the two of them finished was.h.i.+ng up and went downstairs, Chu Yan’s phone rang.
“Chu Yan, Mingxing Square suddenly collapsed. Quick, ask the Chu family if anyone is there.”
“Collapsed?” Chu Yan frowned. “Because of what?”
“I don’t know. It suddenly collapsed. Thankfully, we didn’t have the time to enter. Otherwise, we would really be finished!”
“I understand. I’ll ask now.”
Chu Yan hung up.
“What’s wrong?”
“Jun Hao said that Mingxing Square has collapsed and asked me to ask the Chu family if they were there.”
Lu Sheng was surprised. “Mingxing Square could collapse too?”
That was the largest square in the vicinity, and also the place with the most visitors.
If it collapsed, the consequences would be dire!
