Li Bingbing came running from her room toward them, she stood beside Lu Xian Yu and was panting lightly, "Mom... Dad... ha... ha... what are you doing here? Why didn"t you gave me a call that you two are coming today?"

"Well..." Mu Xijiu moved her gaze from Lu Xian Yu to Li Bingbing, "We wanted to give you a surprise... Bingbing, who is he?"

"Him?" Li Bingbing turned to Lu Xian Yu with a nervous smile on her lips, "Oh! He"s my friend, Lu Xian Yu."

Lu Xian Yu? That was the name of Lu Yifeng"s twin brother, right?

Mu Xijiu knitted her brows, "A friend?"

Even Mu Xijiu heard of Lu Xian Yu"s womanizing ways. She has often seen him back then in the News about his relations.h.i.+p with various known female artists.

"Nice to finally meet you, ma"am." Lu Xian Yu said with a smile.

Mu Xijiu knew her daughter well, she wouldn"t befriend someone like Lu Xian Yu so why was he in her place?

Li Bingbing knew what her mother was thinking that"s why she said, "It"s a long story, for now, why don"t you come in?"

"Xian Yu here is really my friend. I met him in a supermarket." Li Bingbing said as she looked at her parents who were sitting in front of her with a serious look on their faces.

"I forgot my wallet so Lu Xian Yu, being such a kind person, paid for it. He even helped me carry my things. I was hiring a chef back then and he saw the paper I stuck outside my apartment so he applied as one." Li Bingbing lied smoothly.

"Qiao Man didn"t say anything about this. Wasn"t she supposed to be taking care of you?" asked s.h.i.+ Fen as he crossed his arms.

"I really love Manman"s cooking so I decided to have a small cooking contest between Manman and Xian Yu, as you can already see, Xian Yu won so he"s here. Besides, Qiao Man is my personal bodyguard, the moment you gave her to me, she became mine. She will do whatever I say. I gave her a vacation since she"s been too busy lately."

Lu Xian Yu looked at Li Bingbing in disbelief. She was so good at lying! If he was an outsider who didn"t know a thing between them, he would have believed her already.

Mu Xijiu sighed, "It"s still hard to believe that a man from the Lu family wanted to be your personal chef, Bingbing."

"Cooking is his pa.s.sion, right Xian Yu?" Li Bingbing turned to Lu Xian Yu and smiled but her eyes were saying another thing. If he screwed this up and won"t get along with her lies, she would kick him out of her place!

He chuckled at this, "Yes, she is right."

Since Lu Xian Yu was sitting beside Li Bingbing, he placed his arm on her shoulders and grinned at her parents, "Bingbing and I are just really friends. One of the reasons why I applied was because I wanted Bingbing here to make me a software. While she"s working on it, I get to visit her from time to time and cook for her."

"And after she"s done with the software?" s.h.i.+ Fen asked, looking at Lu Xian Yu with narrowed eyes. He knew that Lu Xian Yu was an a.s.sa.s.sin so he somehow believed half of what he said. The software that Li Bingbing was making for him could be something related to Lu Xian Yu"s line of work.

"I did apply as her chef so it"s my duty to feed her. As for the payment, I don"t really need her money, all I need is her skills."

Mu Xijiu was confident that Li Bingbing won"t fall for a guy like him so she wasn"t worried about it. She turned to Li Bingbing and smiled, "Your father and I are going to fly to New Jersey tomorrow that"s why we wanted to check on you before we leave."

Li Bingbing smiled, "I"m not a child anymore that you need to check on me every time you leave the country with dad, mom."

"I know but we can"t help it, we"re your parents."

"If you"ll excuse me, I was working with some fruit salad earlier, would you like to have some?" Lu Xian Yu offered.
