God of Racing-Chapter 425 - 418: It’s Getting More Interesting

Mu Qinglan walked over with a slight smile, nodding at Le Zhengsheng and Yu Sangwan, "Are you... talking business?"

"Tch!" Le Zhengsheng glanced at her coldly, curling his lips with a sneer, and mocked, "Would you understand if I told you?"

That sentence left Mu Qinglan's face quite embarrassed.

Lu Jinxuan shot a sharp look at Le Zhengsheng, then turned to Mu Qinglan to change the topic, "Qinglan, it's so late... you should go rest!"

"..." Mu Qinglan's expression softened a bit, her gaze falling on the paper bag in his hand. She couldn't help but ask, "This one?"

There was a sense of familiarity. Mu Qinglan thought for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "This is... from before..."

She had once been Lu Yuxuan's tutor, so she naturally knew a bit about him.

Lu Jinxuan was pleasantly surprised, "You remembered?"

"...Yes." Mu Qinglan nodded with a smile, "Yes, I remembered."

Lu Jinxuan, in his anxiousness, asked further, "What about the others?"

"I..." Mu Qinglan held her forehead, innocently shaking her head, "Still... not very clear."

Lu Jinxuan's eyes darkened, but he still managed a smile, "It's okay, take your time... aren't things getting better?"

"Yes." Mu Qinglan nodded, already sweating a bit in her palms.

Lu Jinxuan glanced at Yu Sangwan, who was standing alongside Le Zhengsheng, and then handed the paper bag to Mu Qinglan, "This is for you..."

"For me?" Mu Qinglan was delighted, "Did you specifically... buy this for me?"

Lu Jinxuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "It's still warm, eat while it's hot!"

"Yes." Mu Qinglan took the paper bag, treasuring it in her arms, looking up at him, "You should go back and eat something too. You've been busy until now without eating... I ordered your favorite dishes, let's go!"

"Okay." Lu Jinxuan nodded slightly, lightly supporting Mu Qinglan as they turned to leave.

Behind them, Yu Sangwan stood straight, her hands hanging by her sides, unknowingly clenched into fists.

"Hey..." Le Zhengsheng sighed lightly, lifting his hand to her head, "They've walked far, can't see them anymore... don't look."

Yu Sangwan snapped back to reality, stubbornly retorting, "Who said I'm watching him? What's there to see in him?"

"Right, I didn't say you were watching him!" Le Zhengsheng teasingly lowered his head, "Little Wanwan... you admitted it yourself!"

"..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, pouting, "Are you very familiar with him?"

Le Zhengsheng nodded, puzzled, "Sort of!"

"He, he..." Yu Sangwan stammered, her eyelashes trembling lightly, "He's been with Mu Qinglan... for many years?"

"..." Le Zhengsheng squinted, smiling at the corners of his mouth.

Mu Qinglan! He remembered that she used to be just a part-time tutor for the Lu Family, considered a servant, really! But as for why Lu Jinxuan now valued her so much, he couldn't understand. Yet, based on his understanding of Lu Jinxuan, it wouldn't be because he liked her.

But, why should he tell Yu Sangwan this?

"Heh." Le Zhengsheng raised his eyebrows in his charming eyes, full of charisma, "Yes... many years. In all these years, many around Young Master Lu have changed, but this one... remains constant."

This news struck Yu Sangwan's heart like a heavy hammer.

Yu Sangwan pursed her lips tightly, trying hard not to lose composure, "The walk is over; I still have work to do."

"Hey, Little Wanwan..." Le Zhengsheng couldn't stop her, watching her stubborn figure, he smiled.

In the room, Lu Jinxuan had a simple meal and continued to work.

Ji Qing stood before him, respectfully saying, "Young Master, you should have your treatment now."

"Hmm?" Lu Jinxuan looked up, shaking his head, "Forget it for tonight... I need to work overnight."

"..." Ji Qing was taken aback, "Young Master, what are you busy with? Isn't there someone in charge here?"

Lu Jinxuan's face sank, lips curling with a cold smile, "Ji Qing, you're my therapist, mind your business! Other matters are not for you to handle!"

"..." Ji Qing immediately lowered her head, "Yes, understood."

"Leave!"

Ji Qing hurried out, closing the door behind her.

Lu Jinxuan rubbed his temples irritably, although he agreed to Ji Qing's treatment, he never trusted her... Ji Qing was his mother's person, and his mother always held different views from him on some matters.

Looking down at the computer, Lu Jinxuan shook his head, better deal with the trouble Yu Sangwan caused first!

It wasn't until dawn that he completed the preliminary work.

Lu Jinxuan raised his wrist to check, the hands of the clock already pointing to four. He walked to the window, looking across at the old building, where, under the faint light, he could just make out Yu Sangwan walking layer by layer with a flashlight.

"Tch." Lu Jinxuan chuckled, shaking his head... time to stop her foolish behavior.

He left his room, heading across.

Yu Sangwan had a pile of papers in her hands, having only finished part of it. Beside her, Le Zhengsheng leaned against the wall, already nodding off.

Yu Sangwan found it amusing, "Hey! Wake up! Director!"

"Huh?" Le Zhengsheng woke up in shock and hastily looked at her, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

"Wipe your drool!" Yu Sangwan teased him, "You don't need to stay with me; go back to sleep. It's almost dawn."

"No need." Le Zhengsheng shook his head and suddenly clutched his stomach, "Oh, I need to go to the bathroom! Little Wanwan, stay here by yourself and don't be afraid! I'll be right back."

With that, he was already running off, clutching his stomach.

"Haha." Yu Sangwan shook her head, amused and exasperated, "Why insist on staying with me?"

She sat down on the steps, facing a pile of papers, and started to feel disheartened, "Sigh... he was right to scold me; I'm just useless! Why do I get distracted while working? This method is just pure stupidity! Even given two more days, it wouldn't work."

Having stayed up all night, Yu Sangwan was also very tired.

She put down the papers, leaned against the wall while sitting on the steps, and blinked, already drowsy. She looked up ahead, directly facing two plots of land planned for transplanting peach trees... the place she had planned for.

Suddenly, she thought of her mother.

Yu Sangwan stuck out her tongue, licked her lips, and murmured softly, "Mom, I want to eat peaches."

Lu Jinxuan quietly approached her from behind and happened to hear her say... the little girl wanted to eat peaches?

"Yes, the kind that's very juicy when you bite into it." Yu Sangwan murmured as her eyelids drooped and she fell asleep.

On the ground, Veilisr handmade leather shoes were spotless and landed silently. Lu Jinxuan walked to Yu Sangwan's side and looked at the dirty and messy steps. Such behavior of sitting on the ground had been expressly forbidden in his upbringing.

However, at this moment, he simply furrowed his brows and sat down beside her.

Lu Jinxuan focused on looking at Yu Sangwan; when the little girl sleeps, her lips turn upwards, looking quite like she's pouting, softening his heart.

Subconsciously, Lu Jinxuan raised his hand to support Yu Sangwan's head, letting it rest against his shoulder. This should be more comfortable, right?

"Mmm..." Yu Sangwan didn't wake and instead grunted in comfort.

Lu Jinxuan chuckled silently, took out his phone, and navigated to Tang Yueze's number... and started typing.

He remembered learning to type initially for Yu Sangwan... and now it's coming in handy for her again.

After manipulating the screen for a while, he pressed send. Lu Jinxuan breathed a sigh of relief and looked down quietly at her... his gaze was thick and intense.

Behind him, Le Zhengsheng had already returned from the bathroom, but seeing this scene, he stopped in his tracks and discreetly hid behind the wall.

"Mmm..." Yu Sangwan shrank her neck in her sleep.

It's early morning, and the weather in Donghua still held a bit of chill.

Lu Jinxuan carefully adjusted her, took off his jacket and draped it over her as his phone vibrated... it was a message from Tang Yueze... the item he wanted had arrived.

Lu Jinxuan leaned Yu Sangwan against the wall and went down the steps to retrieve the item at the door.

Once he left, Le Zhengsheng came out of hiding.

"Achoo!" Yu Sangwan suddenly sneezed awake, saw Le Zhengsheng, and then looked at the jacket on her, "Is it yours?"

Le Zhengsheng was slightly startled; he happened to be without a jacket, but a man's suit... they all looked similar. Le Zhengsheng smiled and nodded, "Yes! I saw you were cold and curled up tight."

"Hehe." Yu Sangwan giggled, pulling off the jacket and handing it back to him, "You're so considerate, I'm going to the bathroom too."

"Wanwan!" Le Zhengsheng called her.

"What's up?"

"The road is dark, I'll go with you."

"...Oh, okay!"

Just as they walked away, Lu Jinxuan came back with a bag... inside were peaches freshly delivered from the orchard by Tang Yueze's people, the type of juicy peaches Yu Sangwan wanted.

But, where are they?

Lu Jinxuan looked around; at the original spot were the flashlight and paper, and his jacket was casually placed there.

After waiting for a while, he heard Yu Sangwan's laughing voice.

"Haha, you said you'd go with me? You're a guy and you're that timid!"

Le Zhengsheng countered, "I'm not timid! I just suddenly saw a cockroach!"

"Haha... I get it! You don't need to be embarrassed!"

"I told you I'm not timid!"

Hearing this conversation, Lu Jinxuan frowned, his eyes darkened, and he tightened his grip on the bag, bent down to place it down, and turned to leave quickly.

Yu Sangwan stopped, looked at the bag on the ground, bent down to pick it up, opened it and wondered, "Hey, it's peaches! Where did they come from?"

She turned around, smiling brightly at Le Zhengsheng, "Haha, is it you?"

Le Zhengsheng's eyes flashed but he neither confirmed nor denied, "So what?"

"I wanted to eat them just now!" Yu Sangwan sat down, pulled one out, and remarked, "It's already washed!"

She took a big bite, her mouth full of peach juice, and murmured, "So sweet! You should eat too..."

Le Zhengsheng unceremoniously reached for one, took a big bite, but his heart was quite clear. Young Master Lu, with something so precious to him... things are getting interesting! It hadn't been a pointless visit after all.
