Chapter 737: He’s Not Even Helping Such a Beautiful Woman, Is He Still a Man?
Subsequently, a worried voice was heard. “Miss Linda, are you alright?”
Lu Yunxiao originally planned to walk away.
Just then a nervous voice that seemed to be pretending to sound calm and disgruntled was heard from behind him. “Hey, why are you so unsympathetic? You didn’t even bother to give her a hand when Miss Linda was falling.”
Lu Yunxiao turned around and looked at the two people behind him with a straight face.
One of them was a foreign woman wearing a golden fishtail dress, who was currently sitting on the ground. The other woman was wearing a white down jacket, while helping the other woman up.
The pa.s.sersby who were walking past had stopped to look at the situation.
Clearly, the woman who fell on the ground was very famous. Some of the pa.s.sersby exclaimed in excitement. “Wow! Isn’t that the international celebrity, Miss Linda?”
“Miss Linda looks even prettier and s.e.xier than when she is on TV!”
“Why did she fall down? It looks rather painful.”
“He’s not even helping such a beautiful woman, is he still a man?”
Everyone’s gaze turned to Lu Yunxiao at the same time.
When they saw who the other party was, their hearts skipped a beat and they suddenly kept their mouths shut.
OMG! Isn’t that the Third Young Master Lu?
It’s said that Second Young Master Lu and Third Young Master Lu are accompanying Mrs. Lu and the Second Young Madam here to shop.
Would he take it to heart about what I said earlier?
The onlookers felt their hearts beating stronger than usual.
Those who could visit the fourth floor have more or less heard rumors related to Lu Yunxiao. Even when they were discussing him in secret, everyone would be very careful about what they said. However, right now, they had pointed fingers at him right in his face.
Everyone quietly retreated and went into a shop when they saw one.
It was as if they were afraid that they would get targeted if they were one second slower in leaving.
Linda and her a.s.sistant were dumbfounded when they saw the scene.
What’s going on?
Weren’t they supposed to accuse the Third Young Master Lu and then she would express her magnanimity? Subsequently, she would pretend to be injured, so that Third Young Master Lu would help her up and in the end, she would use her charms to conquer him, right?
Lu Yunxiao’s gaze moved away from the woman and he left with an expressionless face.
Looking at Lu Yunxiao’s back view, where he did not even bother to look back, Linda’s expression nearly became twisted.
In particular, her a.s.sistant said in a fearful voice, “Miss Linda, what should we do now? Why did those people run away at the sight of the Third Young Master Lu?”
Linda was feeling vexed and she vented her anger on her a.s.sistant. “Are you planning to have me sit on the ground forever? If not for you, could I have made such a big fool of myself?”
The a.s.sistant felt wronged deep down inside. This was obviously your own plan and yet, you’re blaming me because you’ve lost face.
However, the a.s.sistant did not dare to bring up any of her grievances and quickly helped her up.
Linda looked at the figure that had almost disappeared and tried chasing after him again, as she was unwilling to let things end just like that.
Lu Yunxiao managed to get rid of the tail easily. He then headed into a store and bought a pair of sungla.s.ses and a mask to wear. This was so that no one would pay him any attention.
The moment no one paid him any attention, he found a remote corner and took a seat. He even checked his watch and realized that only ten minutes had pa.s.sed. He planned to stay there after the thirty minutes his mother had set had ended, before going back.
He sat there for around five minutes and all of a sudden, a familiar woman who was holding onto papers and a pen had walked over and took a seat next to him.
Anya did not recognize Lu Yunxiao.
She continued drawing on the paper for some time and muttered to herself, “Why are the prices here so expensive? With the money I have, I can’t even afford a piece of clothing.”
Lu Jingye sat there with a straight posture and listened with a straight face.
Anya continued muttering, “I’m still too kind. I can’t bear to ask for the compensation after seeing my debtor kneeling for an entire night. Sigh…”
She rummaged through her cloth bag and took out a lollipop, before popping it into her mouth while she looked around.
After looking around for some time, she suddenly turned her attention to the person sitting next to her.
She carefully checked him out for a short while before her eyes brightened up and she took out the lollipop. “Handsome, do you want me to tell you your fortune for you?”
Lu Yunxiao did not even bother to look at her out of the corner of his eye.
However, he was wearing sungla.s.ses and Anya could not see if he was looking at her or not. She went straight to the point. “In the near future you will be ridden with girl problems and it’s not just one or two girls. If you want to chase them away, I have a solution for you… Also, I don’t charge much. It’s only 50 thousand.”
The man next to her still did not raise his head or turn around.
Anya was a little surprised. She raised her hand and waved it in front of him. “Don’t tell me you’re blind?”
Her eyes brightened even more. “I’m a doctor and I am good at treating eye diseases. Why don’t you pay me 100 thousand and I’ll cure your eye problem?”
Lu Jingye thought deep down inside, “This woman has turned crazy from being poor.”
Anya who had indeed turned crazy due to the lack of money said, “Sir, do think about it. If you order these two together, I’ll give you a discount and charge you 140 thousand. I guarantee that you’ll be able to see and chase those girls away.”
…
Anya: “…”
This man isn’t deaf and blind, is he?
Just then, Lu Yunxiao suddenly stood up.
Anya looked at his back and muttered, “Why does this person’s back look so familiar?”
Speaking of this, she suddenly narrowed her eyes. In the next second, she jumped up in surprise and quickly ran over to stop him.
She looked up and asked, “You are Lu Yunxiao?”
Lu Yunxiao lowered his head and looked at the woman in front of him. He still kept his mouth shut and remained silent.
“You must be.” Anya immediately revealed her straight teeth and said with an expression as if they were very close to each other, “Lu Yunxiao, since it’s also fate that we met each other here, can you lend me some money?”
Lu Yunxiao continued looking at her expressionlessly with his mouth closed.
Anya was not scared away by his cold behavior and continued to talk. “Don’t worry, I won’t borrow much. I’ll pay you back in three days at most.”
As usual, Lu Yunxiao looked at her expressionlessly
Anya gritted her teeth and tried to squeeze some tears out of her eyes as she started to act miserable. “I am really at my wit’s end. I only have 99 remaining and I can at most only eat a bowl of noodles. I will be left on the streets tonight. You and my brother are partners, so you can’t possibly see me freeze to death without helping, right?”
She pulled her thin clothes and said, “Look, Auntie Lu told me to buy a thick coat yesterday and I don’t even have the money to buy one. I slept under someone else’s roof last night and I nearly froze to death.”
Lu Yunxiao looked at her. Under her expectant gaze, he finally opened his mouth. “I didn’t bring any money.”
Anya: “…”
“Are you for real? You’re a young master and you didn’t even bring a single penny with you?”
Lu Yunxiao said with a straight face, “If what you want are clothes, follow me.”
He walked around her and headed in a certain direction.
Anya was stunned for a few seconds before she hastily followed and caught up with him.
Lu Yunxiao walked into a shop that was slightly less crowded.
The staff member’s sweet voice sounded. “Welcome.”
Lu Yunxiao stopped and took off his mask and sungla.s.ses. “I’m looking for your store manager.”
The staff member was shocked by Lu Jingye’s cold and handsome face. She subconsciously moved back and said, “Customer, please hold on for a moment. I’ll go and get the store manager right away.”
The store manager came out very soon.
This area was where the international high-end brands’ shops were located. Even if the store manager did not know who Lu Yunxiao was, she had immediately managed to guess his ident.i.ty when she saw his resemblance to Lu Jingye.
