THE TRUE YOUNG MISS IS A SPOILED BOSS

CHAPTER 137

Chapter 137: I Want to See You

“Grandpa, all of this… why didn’t you tell me when I asked you previously?” Lu Zhichen’s voice carried some bitterness.

“If you had known about it, you would definitely have caused a ruckus about going there,” the Old Master said. “I have already promised Elder Xing that before Jiuan matures, I would not let you set foot back there and not even let you contact Jiuan.”

Lu Zhichen nodded silently.

After all, Old Master still felt sorry for him.

“Don’t be too sad. No one wanted this kind of accident to have happened. But since it had, we can’t do anything about it. Although it has a little to do with you…” The Old Master sighed. They could not deny that he was a small part of why it had happened.

If he had not been around the little girl every day, she would not have had such deep feelings for him. Then, she would not have fallen off the cliff while searching for him.

However, Lu Zhichen could not be blamed for this. He did not want this to have happened either.

Lu Zhichen lowered his eyes. His mind was in a mess, and he didn’t know what he was thinking. He thought about how scared the little girl must have been back then, and then he thought about how Xing Jiuan was cold to him when they met again.

He also wondered if she had been in a lot of pain back then. When she was young, Xing Jiuan was very delicate. If she had accidentally pulled out a strand of her own hair, she would look for him, screaming that it hurt and wanting him to blow on it.

Such a delicate little girl…

“What are you thinking about right now?” Old Master asked all of a sudden, but Lu Zhichen understood what he meant.

“I still have the red string she gave me. She can’t abandon me.”

He did not tell the Old Master about the three-year deadline.

At least he still had three years.

He did not know if it was enough and if this would give Xing Jiuan a chance to accept him. However, it was also very good to be able to be by the little girl’s side.

She didn’t seem as delicate now.

When he recalled the skills Xing Jiuan had displayed during the mission the last time, his heart ached with pride.

The young lady was so outstanding. She must have put in a lot more effort than others.

Old Master did not say anything else and began to talk about something else.

“When is the airing of the variety show that she is on?”

Previously, the director had only aired the happenings of the day Xing Jiuan arrived. Later on, he had released highlights of Ji Shu’s arrival. They were not sure when the rest of the scenes featuring her would be broadcasted.

“It will be at 6 PM the day after tomorrow.”

“Alright, I’ll wait at home to watch it then.

“If you can, bring the little girl home for a meal.”

Lu Zhichen did not speak this time.

The other party was still unwilling to eat with him, let alone go back to his house to do so.

If he asked, he did not know if the other party would just turn around and leave.

Old Master knew from his behavior that he could not do it.

“I knew I couldn’t count on you.”

The Old Master sighed and went upstairs.

“I’m going to sleep for a while. Go do your work.”

Lu Zhichen did not want to be busy.

He wanted to see Xing Jiuan.

Right now.

He really, really wanted to.

He sent a message over to her.

[Lu Zhichen: Jiuan, I want to see you.]

…

Xing Jiuan’s cell phone rang. She saw that Lu Zhichen had sent her a message.

She was silent for a while. Xing Xiaolang rubbed its head against her hand and whined, asking Xing Jiuan to play with it.

“Xing Xiaolang, wait a minute. I’ll need to send a message.”

After Xing Jiuan finished speaking, Xing Xiaolang sat obediently by the side and waited.

It even leaned closer to see what Xing Jiuan was doing, but it could not understand.

[21st: What’s wrong?]

[21st: I went home.]

She didn’t know why, but from just a few words, she could tell that Lu Zhichen’s mood was off.
