Lu Qing reassured his grandfather once more, emphasizing that there was no need to overthink things. The grandfather's late-night visit clearly indicated his worry, a sentiment Lu Qing understood and appreciated. It was evident that everyone harbored private concerns for him.
"Are the children doing well? Bring them over this weekend so I can see them."
Qin Miaomiao responded with a smile, "Okay."
Lu Xing and Mo Wenwan proceeded directly to the old residence after their meeting.
A subtle tension hung in the air as they wondered if they would encounter Lu Qing and Qin Miaomiao. The possibility of an encounter, especially with their altered circumstances, sparked varied thoughts and concerns in their minds, knowing that new identities could lead to unforeseen situations.
"Even if you don’t say it, I understand. When the time comes, I’ll act accordingly and won’t embarrass you."
Mo Wenwan found Lu Xing's repeated reassurances to be almost grating.
"You should focus on your own situation."
Left without a retort, Lu Xing turned his attention to driving, choosing to ignore her remark.
Amidst managing her business affairs, she also deliberated on the cooperation proposal Qin Miaomiao had presented earlier. She decided against sharing this plan with Lu Xing, wanting to maintain the appearance of their unchanged relationship and prevent any external scrutiny. Her mind was made up.
"Grandpa, look, I brought you some water."
While Lu Xing adopted an air of mystery, Mo Wenwan appeared before Old Sir Lu with a pleasant expression. Her gaze held a determined glint as she looked at him earnestly and said, "Grandpa, I've come to see you."
Old Sir Lu's spirits lifted considerably upon seeing Mo Wenwan. He gestured towards the sofa, remarking, "Good, you're here; I'm delighted. Sit, sit down and talk."
"Grandpa, you are still so full of energy; it's truly enviable. I wonder if I will be able to maintain such vigor in the future," Mo Wenwan said, initiating the first phase of her strategy.
Old Sir Lu observed both Lu Xing and Mo Wenwan with a discerning eye. He then instructed a maid to pour tea while discreetly inquiring about Mo Wenwan's family background.
Having prepared a partial truth, she navigated Old Sir Lu's questions with confidence. Her responses were articulate and smooth, easing the tension Lu Xing had felt. He had anticipated the old man might inquire but was still surprised when he actually did.
"Grandpa, if you don't mind the intrusion, may I visit you every weekend?"
This sudden request caught Old Sir Lu off guard, but he found it difficult to refuse. He readily agreed, stating, "Of course, that would be wonderful. As long as you don't find visiting this old man a chore."
Mo Wenwan smiled as she watched the maid serve the tea. She then poured three cups and promptly steered the conversation towards playing chess.
"I'm not very skilled at chess. My grandfather was an excellent player, but unfortunately, he passed away early, and I never had the opportunity to learn from him. I hope that in the future, Grandpa, you can teach me."
Lu Xing cast a casual glance at Mo Wenwan, a thought forming in his mind: She had never mentioned anything about chess before. How did she know Grandpa enjoyed the game? And how did she skillfully weave her deceased grandfather into the conversation to draw it closer?
Observing the car parked at the entrance of the old house, Qin Miaomiao's gaze sharpened as she recognized it. She pointed with surprise, exclaiming, "This car looks very familiar."
Following Qin Miaomiao's lead, Lu Qing looked towards the car at the entrance and stated with certainty, "That should be Lu Xing's car."
Qin Miaomiao turned to Lu Qing in astonishment, "You mean Lu Xing is here?"
"It's highly probable."
