Chapter 44: What do You Think of Me?

Lu Mian looked up and her black, clear eyes reflected Xiao Qimo’s graceful figure.
She kept her phone and walked forward, keeping a 30 centimetre distance from the man. She suddenly smiled brightly.
Xiao Qimo paused for a while as he did not understand the reason for her smile.
“Mr. Xiao, are you throwing rubbish yourself too?”
She suddenly leaned forward and pointed at that black rubbish bag that was empty.
The teasing look in her eyes was self-evident.
Helplessness flashed across Xiao Qimo’s face when he was caught red-handed.
Coincidentally, the elevator arrived and when the door opened, Xiao Qimo slowly lifted up his pants and walked in to avoid the awkward situation.
Lu Mian hugged her arms and giggled, as she followed him into the lift.
Ye Jinwen, who was secretly watching them through the surveillance cameras, could not help but mutter to himself, “I said this rubbish excuse is trash…”
In the end, Lu Mian still sat in Xiao Qimo’s car.
Even though it would be pretty fast for her to ride her motorcycle back to the Lu Family house, it would be very troublesome.
The air-conditioning in the car was very comfortable.
Lu Mian leaned against the seat lazily. This time, she did not play on her phone but was in a daze as she looked at the view outside the car window.
Xiao Qimo broke the silence in the car and casually asked, “How’s school?”
He knew her information and understood part of her situation.
“That bunch of kids are quite cute.” Lu Mian changed her position lazily.
The man glanced at her from the corner of his eyes and saw her flamboyant arrogance and wildness written all over her face. She was clearly just a nineteen-year-old girl, but she was very mature. A bunch of problems in front of her could not even faze her.
Even if people put her in a difficult spot and mocked her, they were only worthy of two words in her eyes – ‘quite cute’.
She stood in the world independently and remained aloof to them, as she looked down at the crowd coldly and rationally at a distance.
“Your friend is called Sui Yuan, right? Ye Jinwen said her condition isn’t too stable and her mental health is quite weak. It seems like Kun Peng School has quite some things to work on.” He said a lot of things in one breath.
Lu Mian chuckled. “I think so too.”
Especially Sui Yuan’s form teacher needed to be adjusted.
The two of them talked intermittently and very quickly arrived at the Lu Mansion entrance.
Lu Mian got off the car but did not close the door, as her white arm rested on it. She looked inside warmly.
Xiao Qimo also turned to look at her and wondered if the little girl had figured things out.
Then, before he could imagine further, he heard her sincere questioning.
“Mr. Xiao, how much is the transportation fee?”
Xiao Qimo was speechless.
The gentle face had some other expressions. Xiao Qimo rubbed his throbbing temple. “Go back, go back…”
His tone was as helpless as it could get.
“Okay.”
Lu Mian closed the car door coolly.
After watching her go in, Xiao Qimo called Ye Jinwen.
“I think Kun Peng School lacks a responsible form teacher. What do you think of me?”
Ye Jinwen thought to himself, “What is going on?”
…
Lu Mian returned home and the side floor should be pretty quiet at this time.
Looking at the bright lights from afar, it seemed like they had not rested.
Lu Mian shifted her backstrap, stepped on the non-existent stones on the floor and walked in leisurely.
Her look was definitely a frivolous, childish brat that had nothing to her name.
In the living room…
Fu Man, Lu Zhizhai and Lu Xinnuan were all seated on the couch, drinking cup after cup of water, as if they were waiting for something.
When they saw Lu Mian coming home leisurely, their suppressed feelings finally exploded.
“Lu Mian, I have something to tell you!” Fu Man was the first to speak up strongly.
