Chapter 64 Awkward, Awkward, Awkward

Finally free from Xie Qinghe, the group could at last go to eat; they were starving.

After ordering, Lu Jingtang sat quietly with her hands in her lap. Noticing that Fu Nanyu hadn’t commented on what happened earlier but didn’t seem angry—he’d even asked if she wanted to order another soup—she cautiously leaned in and asked, "Brother, aren’t you mad? I caused trouble for everyone."

Fu Nanyu took a sip of water and said calmly, "It’s good that you’re willing to help others. He approached you with ill intentions because he’s narrow-minded and petty. I won’t stop you from helping those in need because of this."

Lu Jingtang marveled at how the Fu family’s upbringing was truly exceptional, cultivating a man like Fu Nanyu who knew right from wrong and was upright and principled.

Perhaps human nature truly couldn't be changed. The original host grew up in the Fu family environment but still harbored constant dissatisfaction with society.

Seeing that Fu Nanyu had finished his water, Lu Jingtang quickly and eagerly refilled his glass.

The transparent glass water pitcher was quite large, filled to the brim and very heavy.

Lu Jingtang poured shakily, and in the end, she couldn’t stop in time—the water overflowed, slowly creeping toward the edge of the table and about to spill onto Fu Nanyu. Frantically holding the pitcher, she scrambled to grab some napkins.

The stream of water was intercepted by Fu Nanyu with a napkin, completely averting a crisis that could have destroyed humanity.

Lu Jingtang breathed a sigh of relief, and the pitcher was taken from her hands and set aside. Fu Nanyu gave her a long, slow look as he soaked up the water with a napkin.

Lu Jingtang sighed inwardly. Was she some kind of automatic trouble-making machine at home?

After recovering from her illness, Lu Jingtang didn’t immediately return to work. Ye Xixi made her rest at home for half a month, feeding her all kinds of nourishing soups and tonics every day.

She not only regained her rosy complexion but also started to feel like she was being fattened up for market.

Taking advantage of Chen Ma’s inattention, she sneaked an ice cream from the fridge and took it outside to eat while walking the dogs.

She strongly suspected that the servants at home were reporting to Fu Nanyu. Every time she ate something cold or junk food, she would immediately receive a warning.

Only Panda and David were her loyal companions. She shared a few bites of her ice cream with the two dogs as she walked and ate.

After walking for a while, she noticed an all-black Grand Cherokee parked on the road. The car was extremely sleek and cool, like a beast lurking in the dead of night.

At that moment, the luxury car was oddly rocking up and down. Realizing what was probably happening, Lu Jingtang’s cheeks flushed. Just as David was about to bark at the car, she quickly covered his mouth and signaled them to be quiet.

So scandalous in broad daylight!

Lu Jingtang felt her feet burning with embarrassment. Afraid of disturbing whoever was inside and getting into trouble, she was about to sneak away with the two goofy dogs.

As she passed by the car, she inadvertently glanced at the license plate and paused. Wait, this area was Fu family property—no outsiders were allowed in. Besides, the car looked somewhat familiar.

She bit down on her ice cream stick, lost in thought. David and Panda, for some reason, started pawing at the car door and barking, "Woof woof!"

Just then, the driver’s side window of the Grand Cherokee slowly rolled down. Lu Jingtang then saw her second brother Fu Ting—the upright, principled one who’d made director-level at a young age—sitting on a man’s lap, locked in a passionate, intense kiss.

The man held Fu Ting’s waist, his sharp, hawk-like eyes flicked toward the car window.

Fu Ting, completely absorbed in the kiss, hadn’t realized he’d accidentally pressed the window button. Puzzled as to why the other had stopped, his lips flushed, eyes dazed, he asked breathlessly, "What’s wrong?"

The man patted his waist, signaling him to look back. Fu Ting turned his head and saw Lu Jingtang staring at them in shock, her mouth agape, the ice cream stick barely hanging from her lips, with two silly dogs parked at her feet.

The silly dogs, oblivious to the explosively awkward atmosphere, were thrilled to see Fu Ting and eagerly pawed at the car door, trying to get in.
