Liar

By the roadside with ginkgo trees, a domineering and handsome black supercar was especially eye-catching. Passers-by kept looking around. Some cars also slowed down and opened their windows to admire it enviously.

Jiang Jiu stood in front of the car with no proud smile on her face. She stood there for two to three minutes before seeing her second-hand car gradually drive over.

As soon as the car stopped, the man pushed open the door and strode over with a dark expression.

"Jiang, Jiu—"

Hearing this voice, Jiang Jiu instinctively wanted to run. However, Lu Jinxing's tall figure quickly blocked her vision. She had no way out.

"Do you want to die?" Lu Jinxing's anger surged and his tone was very aggressive. This woman was too wild. She actually dared to speed on the motorway?!

"This is a motorway. Do you know how fast you just drove?"

"Not bad, you've grown bold! How dare you not answer my call?!"

"You're awesome, right? Why didn't you crash?"

Lu Jinxing's voice was loud and bright. Although Jiang Jiu lowered her head, she could still feel the curious gazes around her. Oh, did this scumbag have to scold her so loudly and unpleasantly?

However, she was in the wrong and did not dare to refute. After all, it was too dangerous to drive fast. Moreover, it was during the rush hour after work. She calmed down and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" The veins on Lu Jinxing's forehead bulged. He scolded her as soon as he saw her. He spoke for a few minutes, but the woman opposite him didn't retort at all.

Wasn't she quite eloquent?

Jiang Jiu slowly looked up at him with clear black eyes. "Third Young Master, are you done scolding?"

"I have nothing to say."

"…"

Hearing her answer, the anger in Lu Jinxing's heart ignited again. What did she mean by nothing? Was he scolding her for nothing?

Lu Jinxing took half a step forward and pulled her in front of him. "Are you still not convinced?"

"No." Jiang Jiu pouted unconsciously, her tone even a little wheedling. "I'm convinced."

Seeing her submissive appearance, the boiling anger around Lu Jinxing seemed to have paused. He stared into Jiang Jiu's eyes and said in a low voice, "Why are you running? Is it wrong for me to speak in front of Song Shaoshi?"

Haha.

Jiang Jiu chuckled in her heart. How could he be wrong? The Third Young Master of the Lu family was wise and divine.

With a million-dollar luxury car and a handsome man, many people stopped and pointed and whispered. Some people turned on their phones and began to search the man's face.

Lu Jinxing held Jiang Jiu's wrist and pulled her to the black sports car. He opened the door of the front passenger seat. "Get in."

In front of the car behind, Ji Chen received the order and quickly drove Jiang Jiu's car away.

Buzz—

The black sports car had strong horsepower. Lu Jinxing drove away with a dark expression. Jiang Jiu sat in the front passenger seat and tactfully shut her mouth. At this moment, it was best not to anger the man beside her.

On the way back, the car was exceptionally quiet. Lu Jinxing's well-defined fingers rested on the steering wheel. Jiang Jiu tilted her head and stared at the numbers on the dashboard.

Buzz!

The car suddenly sped up, and Jiang Jiu felt a lingering fear in her heart. Did she drive so fast just now? Well, it was indeed a little too much.

When they turned onto the mountain path, they were even more unimpeded. Jiang Jiu took a deep breath. "Third Young Master."

"How do you feel?" Lu Jinxing looked straight ahead. "Don't you like excitement?"

"…"

Jiang Jiu was speechless. Did she like excitement? They were clearly too scummy. She wasn't as thick-skinned as them. She just wanted to find a place to calm down.

"Third Young Master, drive slowly." She didn't feel dizzy when driving, but Jiang Jiu, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, felt terrible. Her right hand grabbed the seatbelt tightly and her red lips pursed tightly.

Lu Jinxing glanced at her and a trace of coldness flashed across his lips. "Jiang Jiu, do you think I'm blind? How dare you guys pull each other under my nose?"

Jiang Jiu didn't know how much this man had heard in the parking lot, so she could only bite her tongue. "Third Young Master, you've misunderstood. Song Shaoshi was really just here to apologize on behalf of his girlfriend."

Last night, she fell into the pool and was drenched. Song Shaoshi risked his life to save her. The anger between Lu Jinxing's eyebrows instantly turned colder.

"I have no other connection with him," Jiang Jiu explained again. "Third Young Master, you don't have to doubt me. I can definitely do what I promised."

What did she promise? Protect the reputation of the Lu family's Third Young Madam?!

Lu Jinxing sneered. He didn't believe it at all now. This woman's words were lies. It was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't have to be cheated on one day.

The man didn't speak, and Jiang Jiu didn't dare to make a sound. She couldn't guess Lu Jinxing's thoughts at all. This man's unpredictable attributes really gave her a headache.

The car continued to speed up, and Jiang Jiu's face gradually turned pale. She endured the nausea in her stomach and tried her best to adjust her breathing. Lu Jinxing must have done it on purpose. Every time he was angry, he would torture her in different ways.

Fortunately, there was an end to the mountain path. Jiang Jiu saw the door of Ci Garden from afar and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. After a while, the car stopped in the empty space in front of the small building.

Lu Jinxing turned off the engine, unbuckled his seatbelt, and got out of the car. Jiang Jiu sat in the front passenger seat without moving. She closed her eyes and rested for a few minutes before the discomfort of motion sickness subsided a little.

When she got out of the car, her legs went weak and she almost fell.

Ci Garden occupied a huge area and had a green mountain as the backdrop. It was lush all year round. Every evening, the entire residence was enveloped in the scarlet color of the setting sun. It was beautiful.

The man standing on the tall steps in front of her was covered in the afterglow of the setting sun. Jiang Jiu looked up and saw Lu Jinxing with his head lowered, answering a call.

His facial features were already perfect, but now, they were even more defined.

"Mother, we're already home. We'll go over now." The man's voice was deep and sounded especially magnetic.

The white European-style townhouse was like a dream, as beautiful as a castle in a fairy tale. Jiang Jiu straightened up. When the busy servants saw her, they stopped in their tracks. "Young Madam."

Jiang Jiu nodded and walked up the stairs.

Lu Jinxing hung up the phone and glanced at her pale face. He turned around and strode forward. The man was tall and had long legs. Jiang Jiu didn't dare to delay and followed closely behind him.

The living room was brightly lit. Lu Jinxing entered and Jiang Jiu followed. However, before she could steady her feet, a small figure suddenly rushed past and hugged the man's pants.

"Uncle," the little girl said in a childish voice.

Lu Jinxing bent down and picked up the little girl with one hand. He carried her easily on his shoulder, immediately causing a burst of innocent laughter.

Jiang Jiu blinked and watched as Lu Jinxing's expression changed from dark to bright.
