After five years, Ning Xi returned to the place that had pushed her away — home. With a sister who turned her parents against her and made her childhood sweetheart betray her, the odds seemed grey. However, five years abroad had changed her, and she came home to fulfil her childhood dream of becoming an actress. Despite her evil sister still out to get her, tables will be turned. One day, after falling into one of her sister's schemes, she saves an adorable kid and found herself staying at his house to help him come out of his shell. Slowly, his father Lu Tingxiao began falling for her. This was before they realised how their lives had been intertwined all this while without their knowledge.
One simple sentence solved the immediate crisis.
Lu Jingli was impressed at his brother's acting and his seduction skills. Then, he followed up, "Alright. I know you probably won't look at them. I'll take them all on my own, I guess…"
He then slipped away.
Anything to avoid Xiao Xi Xi now!
"Why are you here?" Lu Tingxiao held the girl's hand and asked as they walked into the house.
"I have a day off today. I was resting at home this morning and accompanying Sis Tianxin, so I'm here to accompany my son this afternoon! Is Little Treasure back yet?"
"He's back. He was just asking me earlier if he could visit you."
"Of course, you don't have to be wary of Sis Tianxin actually. I've already told her about us, so you can bring Little Treasure over anytime!"
"Okay."
Lu Tingxiao glanced behind him secretly. Lu Jingli had already vanished.
