Hidden identities of the AI Heiress

Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Brother is waiting for you

A few minutes later, an anxious Lu Xue received a document.

She opened it without understanding what it was, and upon seeing its contents, felt as if she had been submerged in ice water, chilling her to the bone.

The images of her mingling with those socialites had been captured.

Drinking, fighting—although she hadn’t participated, she was present at the scene.

It couldn’t be leaked—should the matter escalate, she would be finished.

Lu Xue’s fingers trembled as she closed the document, her face turning deathly pale.

She understood, this was a warning directed at her!

No one other than Pei Ya could be behind it.

Lu Xue’s head buzzed as she realized for the first time just how terrifying the methods of adults could be.

After returning home, Qiao Yun found Su Mian in the flower room.

“I can go out during the National Day holiday.”

Su Mian was startled before she realized what was happening, and her smile couldn’t be hidden, “Really? That’s great, Qiaoqiao, you finally want to go out and have fun.”

She was genuinely worried that Qiao Yun staying home all the time would stifle her.

Qiao Yun’s emotion was softened by Su Mian’s mood, her usually indifferent eyes warming slightly, “I’ll go to the amusement park tomorrow with Li Miao, she invited me.”

“Do I need to prepare anything for you?” Su Mian was surprised.

“No need.” Qiao Yun shook her head, “I’m just accompanying her.”

“Make sure you have fun too,” Su Mian advised.

Qiao Yun nodded.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

After a moment of thought, Su Mian took out her phone and said, “You’ll definitely need money to go out, let me transfer some to you.”

“I have money,” Qiao Yun declined.

“Don’t be polite with mom. We’re not short on money, so don’t be too frugal. You won’t be able to spend it all even if you try,” Su Mian insisted, transferring money to Qiao Yun without another word.

“…”

Qiao Yun silently closed her mouth.

Truth be told…

The Lu Family’s wealth wasn’t enough for her to fund a research project…

But seeing how earnest Su Mian was, Qiao Yun decided not to burst her bubble.

She was truly considerate.

It was only after Qiao Yun returned to her room that Su Mian called Lu Zhanxing to share the good news.

Lu Zhanxing had waited a week without an answer from Qiao Yun and thought she didn’t like him.

Now hearing that Qiao Yun was willing to come out and play, he was quite pleased and looked forward to her visit.

“What fun places are there in Hai City?” Lu Zhanxing asked Xie Ying.

Xie Ying was puzzled, “Why are you asking this all of a sudden?”

“My sister’s coming over for the National Day. I want to take her out to widen her horizons,” Lu Zhanxing said, looking up information on his phone.

Xie Ying hadn’t seen Lu Zhanxing this relaxed in a while but felt compelled to remind him, “You might not have the time to bond with your sister. You’ll be shooting for a variety show then.”

Lu Zhanxing’s face darkened in an instant, “Why wasn’t I informed?”

“I just took the job for you yesterday; I didn’t expect it to coincide like this,” Xie Ying apologized.

Lu Zhanxing frowned, clearly irked.

After a while, he said, “If it can’t be rescheduled, I’ll just take her to the set. She’s at an age where she should find that interesting.”

Qiao Yun grew up in the countryside and had likely never seen celebrities; it could be a good opportunity for her to have a look, perhaps even bringing them closer.

Xie Ying thought it wasn’t such a good idea; in broad daylight, with so many people around, bringing a beautiful girl, was he trying to create a misunderstanding?

But then he reflected on the fact that they were siblings, and besides, material was not allowed to leak from the set.

Lu Zhanxing picked up his phone again just as a message came in.

[My patience is limited, don’t make me wait too long.]

Lu Zhanxing’s expression turned stern as he scoffed disdainfully, then deleted the message and opened Qiao Yun’s WeChat profile.

[Little sister, your brother is waiting for you~]

His face was grim, but the message to Qiao Yun betrayed none of his mood.
