The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 295 - Chapter 295 Chapter 295 Playing Around

Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Playing Around Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Playing Around “No problem!” Shi Haoyu laughed and shook his head, then a flash of depth crossed his eyes as he seemingly casually asked, “By the way, the man with your friend, do you know him?”

After hearing Shi Haoyu’s words, Chu Yixue was stunned for a moment, but soon smiled, shook her head, and replied, “I don’t know him. But from the looks of it, he doesn’t seem to be a student from our school.”

If Shi Haoyu hadn’t mentioned it, she might not have even noticed the man with Zhong Niangyao. Now that she thought about it, that man was indeed outstanding, even more so than all the men she knew. Even, she had to admit, even Shi Haoyu, who was standing beside her now, was not half as impressive as the other man.

Who exactly was that man? And what was his relationship with Zhong Niangyao? If Zhong Niangyao was really with that man, what about Li Jingming?

The thought of Zhong Niangyao finding such an exceptional man after being abandoned by Li Jingming uncontrollably fueled her jealousy.

After getting the answer from Shen Yixue, Shi Haoyu looked up toward the direction where Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao had left, “Is that so?”

“What’s the matter?” Sensing something off about Shi Haoyu, Shen Yixue asked somewhat puzzled, “Do you know that man? You seem rather concerned about him!”

“No, he just looks a bit like someone I know.” Shi Haoyu shook his head and then gave Chu Yixue a charming smile, “It’s still early. How about we go see a movie together? Or I could take you home.”

He wasn’t particularly interested in Chu Yixue, the Second Lady brought back by the Chu Family, but he didn’t dislike her either. Besides, her innocent appearance was indeed quite appealing. However, such a woman was only good for fun. If it came to marriage, he would definitely not choose someone like her.

Not to mention that the Chu Family and the Shi Family were not on the same level, Chu Yixue, who had spent so long abroad, couldn’t shake off her plebeian airs, even now that she was brought back by the Chu Family. Such a person was not suitable as a legitimate wife but could be a lover for fun.

Upon hearing Shi Haoyu’s suggestion, Chu Yixue indeed wanted to agree immediately, but to show some restraint, she thought for a while before smiling slightly and saying, “There’s a newly released film that I’m quite interested in. You invited me for lunch, why not let me treat you to a movie?”

Infanta, it was a rare opportunity to get Shi Haoyu’s attention and go out on a date. She naturally did not want to go home so early. What she wanted was not just a date but to become Shi Haoyu’s wife.

Two people with different thoughts went on the date just like other couples. However, what their true intentions were, only they knew.

After Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao left the private restaurant, they headed to the beach.

Although it was the afternoon, since fall had already begun, the weather was not hot. It was quite comfortable to enjoy the sea breeze and take a stroll by the sea.

“Did you know that man just now?” Zhong Niangyao turned to Lu Yichen beside her and asked with a smile, “While I was talking to Chu Yixue, that man looked at you several times! If he doesn’t know you, then he must be–”

Before she could finish her sentence, the mischievous smile on Zhong Niangyao’s face suggested she was thinking of something amusing.

Lu Yichen played along with a smile, “What could it be?”

“He must be interested in you,” Zhong Niangyao’s smile grew brighter and more mischievous, “Although he’s dating Chu Yixue, that doesn’t ensure he only likes women. In fact, some people are bisexual!”

An unexpected response made Lu Yichen chuckle. He shook his head, reached out, and gently tapped Zhong Niangyao’s forehead before saying, “What kind of nonsensical thoughts are you packing in that little head of yours! Why is it always filled with such messy ideas?”

The tap from Lu Yichen was gentle; Zhong Niangyao, playful and smiling, blinked and continued, “I read about it online, but this is a normal association, okay? The way he looked at you was really weird!”

Before, she had never been exposed to such things. However, after coming to this world and encountering electronic products, she felt as though her worldview had been completely redefined. Although some things seemed far-fetched, it didn’t stop her from finding them interesting.

Lu Yichen shook his head helplessly and then said, “That was Shi Haoyu from the Shi Family, we’ve met a few times before. I think he recognized me, which is why he looked over a few times. So, better put away those messy thoughts!”

Raising an eyebrow, Zhong Niangyao spread her hands, “Fine! Why didn’t you say so earlier! This misunderstanding is all because of you, so ultimately, it’s your fault!”

Zhong Niangyao’s unreasonable manner didn’t bother Lu Yichen; instead, he found it endearing, “Alright, alright, it’s all my fault.”

He clearly knew that Zhong Niangyao was a very rational person who would never let her guard down unless it was someone she approved of. This playfulness was unguarded.

Though Zhong Niangyao hadn’t officially accepted him yet, she had already dropped her guard against him deep down.

Watching Lu Yichen’s pampering demeanor, Zhong Niangyao’s cheeks heated up, and then she chuckled and ran ahead.

Lu Yichen said nothing and quickly followed her.

After having fun at the beach, the two ate seafood by the sea before leaving.

Lu Yichen dropped Zhong Niangyao off at her front door but did not suggest coming in; he simply turned and left.

Upon entering, Zhong Niangyao immediately felt an odd atmosphere, as if something had happened. Moreover, it seemed that none of the family members were around, leaving only the servants.

Zhong Niangyao wasn’t concerned, but since she hadn’t seen Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong, she felt somewhat uneasy. So, she stopped the butler to ask what had happened.

Uncle Wu respectfully replied, “Third Miss, the Second Madam is giving birth, and everyone has already gone to the hospital.”

“Giving birth?” Zhong Niangyao exclaimed, “Isn’t the due date still two months away? How did it come early? Was there an incident?”
