29: Lu Hanxiao's true identity!

It was Di Xiaoba.

"You're back? What did you buy?" Zhang Yu asked with a smile.

"I bought... I'll tell you later."

Di Xiaoba placed the items on the table and said, "I'm going to take a shower first."

She had drunk alcohol last night and fallen straight asleep, and after waking up today, she had gone to the company.

It had been so long, how could she not wash up?

Zhang Yu glanced at the shopping bag.

With his 2.0 super vision, he saw a small square box.

He smiled knowingly.

Because the bathroom on the first floor hadn't been fixed yet, Di Xiaoba went to the shower in the master bedroom on the second floor.

Zhang Yu picked up the bag and went straight upstairs to the second floor.

"I've brought the stuff up."

Hearing him say that, Di Xiaoba's face turned even redder.

She didn't dare to make a sound.

Oh well.

This was bound to happen eventually.

The atmosphere had already been built up to this point; it wouldn't be appropriate to be a deserter now.

Besides, the Landlord, Zhang Yu, was so manly.

He had helped settle things for her several times.

In over 20 years, he was the first man to make her heart flutter.

It was just a pity that she knew her place.

Her background was too ordinary, and he was too dazzling.

It was impossible to ask anything of him.

With such immense strength, he wouldn't stop for just one person like her.

Then she would repay him with her most precious possession; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to return this favor.

And she would never mention this matter again in the future.

She would just pretend it never happened.

After washing up.

Di Xiaoba walked out wrapped in a bath towel and saw Zhang Yu looking at her.

She blushed and lowered her head.

Zhang Yu smiled: "All washed up?"

"Mm." She nodded.

"Close the curtains; the daylight is a bit blinding," Zhang Yu instructed.

She obediently did as she was told.

Next, skip ten thousand words.

Completely shutting out everything from the outside world.

Zhang Yu's feeling was exactly those classic two words mentioned by the 'Add Money Hermit'.

When the sky outside turned dim.

Zhang Yu sat on the sofa, picked up his phone, and checked for the latest messages.

Di Xiaoba silently cleaned up.

When her senses returned, she felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

So she said: "I'll take the bedsheet to wash."

"Alright, go ahead."

Zhang Yu watched her clean up.

On the velvet-white bedsheet, there were scattered red marks.

Di Xiaoba saw them too and cleaned up even faster.

Then she went to the laundry room.

Looking in the mirror, she discovered many red fingerprint marks on her shoulders, waist, and legs.

She froze for a moment, then quickly put on her clothes to cover the marks.

"Landlord, Xiao Ba. Are you home? We're almost home!"

At that moment.

In their group chat of four.

Lu Hanxiao tagged them both.

"We are at home," Zhang Yu replied.

"Then don't go out, okay? We'll go out together later to have a meal," Lu Hanxiao said in the group chat.

"Sister Xiao, why?"

At this time, Di Xiaoba also saw the message and replied.

"Xiao Ba, why didn't you answer my call earlier? I was worried to death. Something so big happened and you didn't tell me." Pan Yuyao saw Di Xiaoba pop up.

She couldn't help but send a barrage of voice messages.

"We called you over a dozen times, taking turns, and you didn't answer once. Are you that busy?"

"I..."

Di Xiaoba glanced at Zhang Yu, remembering the time when the calls came in, and she was...

So she said: "I just went to eat something and didn't bring my phone."

"Wow, what good food were you eating that you didn't invite me? No eating alone next time!" Pan Yuyao's voice message said, pretending to be angry.

"Okay, definitely next time."

As Di Xiaoba said this, she noticed Zhang Yu smiling at her, and her face turned red all over again.

This wasn't something that could be done together.

After putting down the phone.

She looked out the window and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, she felt someone wrap their arms around her waist from behind.

It was Zhang Yu.

"From now on, you are my woman. If there's anything, just tell me," Zhang Yu whispered in her ear.

"Landlord. I don't need you to do anything for me; you've already done so much." Di Xiaoba still felt grateful in her heart.

She didn't dare to ask for anything more from him.

If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have even been able to get past the hurdle of the blood-sucking father and son.

His appearance had directly removed the biggest hidden danger in her heart.

"You don't want anything?"

Zhang Yu was a bit surprised.

The difference between people was indeed too great.

People like Chen Wan and Liu Ruyan were very goal-oriented.

"Landlord, can you not tell the two of them?" Di Xiaoba said.

"Including today, and all the details of what happened yesterday."

"Alright, I won't say anything," Zhang Yu nodded. "In front of the three of you, I am still the Landlord."

She didn't want to worry her two sisters, nor did she want their future relationship to change.

Therefore, pretending that nothing had happened was the best way to handle the aftermath.

While they were talking.

The sound of the door opening rang out again.

The two sisters were back.

Di Xiaoba hurried to the door to welcome them.

She took the suitcases from Lu Hanxiao and Pan Yuyao.

"Oh my, I missed you so much."

The sisters, having not seen each other for a day, were the first to give each other a big hug.

Their bond was truly strong.

They were together at work and off work; not biological sisters, but closer than biological sisters.

"You must be hungry, I'll go cook something for you," Di Xiaoba said, "Also, thank you for covering my shift."

"We are all sisters, don't be so formal," Lu Hanxiao said.

"How about we don't cook today, let's go out to eat," she suggested.

"Landlord, is that okay?" Di Xiaoba turned to ask for Zhang Yu's opinion.

"Where to eat?"

"Isn't the mall right downstairs? We'll just see which restaurant looks good and eat there," Pan Yuyao said.

Then it was settled.

The four of them tidied up a bit and went out.

Because the mall was right downstairs, there was no need to dress up, so they wore their most casual loungewear.

And they even went out without makeup.

Even so, one man and three women walking in the mall still caused many people to be stunned.

"As expected, when people are good-looking, they are beauties no matter what they wear!"

"The three of them have different temperaments and styles. Can they look this good without makeup?"

"Who is that handsome guy? I'm so envious of him, having three great beauties accompanying him."

"He seems to be the person who lives in Binjiang Mansion and drives a lamborghini!"

"I thought he looked familiar just now, and looking at him now, it really is him."

"Do the three of them live in Binjiang Mansion too?"

"Look, the woman next to him seems to be the daughter of the Lu family!" In the crowd, the King of Trivia appeared again.

"Which Lu family?"

"What other Lu family could there be in Jiangcheng? It's the Lu Group that runs the Jiutong Pharmaceutical Group."

"Damn. Are they that powerful?"

The Lu Group was a company that had long been ranked in the top ten in Jiangcheng.

At its best, it had even entered the top five.

Its subsidiaries focused mainly on the medical and pharmaceutical industries.

It had three pharmaceutical factories, four hospitals, and over a dozen pharmaceutical sub-brands.

It generated tens of billions in revenue annually and provided tens of thousands of jobs.

It was a major taxpayer in Jiangcheng and had significant influence.

Listening to the passersby's discussion, Zhang Yu also learned of Lu Hanxiao's true identity.

Some people controlled electricity, some controlled water, some controlled finance, but the Lu family controlled the medicine in Jiangcheng.

This was one of the industries with the highest profit margins.

Di Xiaoba and Pan Yuyao, hearing the discussions of others, felt even more incredulous.

They widened their eyes and asked: "Sister Xiao, is what they are saying true? Are you the daughter of the Lu family?"

"Sigh, I knew it couldn't be hidden forever."

Lu Hanxiao spread her hands, expressing her helplessness.
