Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

Chapter 120 Arrogant Second-Generation Prodigy (Gong) VS Humble, Sensitive, and Invisible (Shou) [58

When she returned to the Lu family home, the aftereffects of excessive crying kicked in, and Jiang Xiyu's eyes swelled up like big walnuts.

He saw his own embarrassing state through the car window and, unable to accept it, lowered his head.

Lu Xingye scoffed at him, saying that now he knew how ugly he looked.

Jiang Xiyu covered her face, touched her equally swollen lips, and couldn't help but gasp, her voice muffled: "What should I say if the housekeeper sees this?"

Lu Xingye glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and after a long while, said in a serious tone: "Are you going to lie, Jiang Xiyu?"

Jiang Xiyu paused for a moment, revealing a pair of bright red eyes, and tried to open them a crack to say, "I didn't mean to lie."

"Then say you cried until your eyes and mouth were swollen."

Jiang Xiyu: "..."

Eyes can swell up from crying, but mouths can't.

Jiang Xiyu blushed and suggested softly, "How about we go back later?"

"Hmm?" Lu Xingye asked in confusion, then slowed down the car and said, "But I want to go back sooner."

That's what they said, but what should have been a ten-minute drive turned into a half-hour drive.

When the two returned, they found that the villa's living room was empty, and even the butler was nowhere to be seen.

Jiang Xiyu was a little surprised.

Because usually at this time, the butler will be waiting at the door.

Lu Xingye's face didn't show any extra expression, but when Jiang Xiyu was about to return to her room, he pulled her back and took her upstairs.

Ten minutes later, the private doctor brought over medication to reduce the swelling.

After applying the medicine, Lu Xingye planned to take a shower.

Jiang Xiyu silently stood up and followed behind him.

Lu Xingye looked at him and raised an eyebrow: "What are you doing?"

Jiang Xiyu didn't speak, but her eyes moved slightly as she followed him.

Even though his eyes were swollen and he couldn't see clearly, Lu Xingye could still see the madness in his eyes.

He clicked his tongue and walked back to the bathroom expressionlessly.

Jiang Xiyu still moved along with him in very small steps.

Unable to bear it any longer, Lu Xingye turned around, walked up to him, and said through gritted teeth, "You didn't know you had just applied eye drops?"

Jiang Xiyu tilted her head and mumbled, "I know."

He thought for a moment and then added, "I can't see it very clearly, Brother Xingye."

"It would be a miracle if you could see it clearly." Lu Xingye chuckled and ordered him, "Go back to bed."

Jiang Xiyu seemed to have been waiting for him to say this. Upon hearing it, she pretended to be innocent and said, "But I haven't taken a shower yet, and I'll make your bed dirty."

Lu Xingye was slightly taken aback.

After realizing what was happening, he saw Jiang Xiyu blushing and looking at him expectantly.

Lu Xingye looked down at him for a while, then his expression turned to a half-smile: "When have you ever not gotten the bed dirty?"

The obvious meaning behind those words was enough to make a thin-skinned person die of embarrassment.

But Jiang Xiyu's eyes were swollen from crying today, and her face was also a little swollen, so she wasn't shy at all.

He took a step closer and insisted on saying to Lu Xingye, "Brother Xingye, don't leave me behind. Let me go with you, okay?"

He doesn't want to be separated from Lu Xingye right now; he just wants to stick to him.

It's a bit agonizing when I can't see him.

He didn't really want to sit outside alone.

He wanted to be with Lu Xingye every moment.

Lu Xingye clearly understood his meaning, but since he had only recently confessed his feelings, he was still a little shy and embarrassed.

But Jiang Xiyu was clearly not shy at all, and kept following him, leaving him with nowhere to hide his shame.

Lu Xingye pondered for a moment, then his gaze suddenly turned deep and dark.

That somber look only flashed for a moment, and as he gazed at Jiang Xiyu's gentle expression, he instantly lost his composure.

He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Xiyu's wrist, saying in a low voice, "Do you really want to stick to me like glue?"

Jiang Xiyu unconsciously licked her lips, then quickly nodded and said, "Yes, I want to be with you."

It would be even better if I could cling to Lu Xingye like a koala all the time.

Seeing his resolute expression, Lu Xingye felt a surge of anger rise to the top of his head.

He spoke as if he were grinding his teeth to powder, and his eyes locked onto Jiang Xiyu with a fierce look.

"Don't you want to get better?"

We had to get our eyes wet right after I applied the eye drops.

Jiang Xiyu misunderstood, thinking that Lu Xingye was worried that he wasn't fully recovered, and blushed as he said in a weak voice, "I'm fine, I'm all better now."

Lu Xingye: "..."

My brain is full of useless information.

But Lu Xingye couldn't refuse.

Because as soon as Jiang Xiyu showed even the slightest intention to do something with him, he immediately felt as if something was gnawing at his heart, and his self-control was almost zero.

"Don't you really want your eyes anymore?" he warned irritably, but his legs instinctively pulled him towards the bathroom.

She'll definitely cry again later...

Lu Xingye cursed inwardly as he thought about this.

Damn it, he's not going to try to coax me anymore!

"I won't cry..." Jiang Xiyu said, biting her lip. Her arched eyebrows and eyes made her look both comical and adorable.

Lu Xingye turned his head away in embarrassment and anger, took three steps at a time, and pulled the person away, hooking his longest leg and slamming the door shut with a "bang".

The sound of water hitting the floor was crisp and clear, disrupting the swirling steam in the bathroom.

At 11:30, Lu's mother called.

There was no one in the bedroom, but the bathroom was so steamy that it was overflowing from the cracks.

If the phone rings for a while and no one answers, they stop calling.

Lu's mother immediately called the housekeeper.

"Is Xingye not home?"

The butler replied, "Yes, it is."

He received a message from the young master half an hour ago.

The young master ordered him to remove everyone from the villa.

The steward understood everything, so he dismissed the people as Lu Xingye had instructed.

He didn't know what important matter Madam Lu wanted to discuss with him at this moment, so he couldn't help but ask, "Madam, is there something you need from the young master?"

There was a moment of silence before someone said, "It's nothing, just asking."

She paused for a moment, then asked, as usual, "Where is Xi Yu?"

"They should be resting by now."

"Ah."

Lu's mother responded, gave a few casual words of advice, and then hung up.

The butler held his phone and pondered for a while. Based on his years of understanding, he believed that the lady still had something to say.

He sighed and decided to remind Lu Xingye tomorrow.

After Lu's mother hung up the phone, another call came in.

She frowned as she looked at the familiar phone number, and hung up without hesitation after it rang for two seconds.

After a moment of silence, the assistant pushed the door open and came in, holding a phone that was on a call. She said, "Sister Xu, the Lu residence is calling again."

"If you're not going to answer, hang up on me," Lu's mother said impatiently.

The assistant looked troubled and was about to remind him that the call had been connected when a calm male voice came from the other end.

"Aren't you going to listen to anything about Xingye?"
