Chapter 803 I Lied to You
Over the years, Bai Yunan had consistently acted in this way, making brief appearances before
disappearing for a while.
He had beening and going for the previous two years, which was epted as normal.
Bai Yunan lowered his head to peel the crawfish, eating a few himself before starting to peel for Lu
Qingyou.
As he slowly and leisurely peeled crawfish, he casually asked her, "How''s work been recently?"
"It-it''s been good." She stumbled nervously when he inquired about her job.
There was a hint of sh in Bai Yunan''s eyes as he lowered them. Then, with calm, he replied, "Oh,
yeah? I''ll drive you to work tomorrow since I''ll be free."
After a brief change in expression, Lu Qingyou solemnly replied, "No, I''m fine. Now that you have some
spare time, try to get some rest.
Bai Yunan tly rejected her, saying, "I really don''t mind."
"Alright then." Lu Qingyou knew that once Bai Yunan made a decision, it was difficult to change his
mind, so she simply agreed.
She could just have him drop her off at thepany''s entrance, and then she would send him away
when she got off the car. She would wander around for a while and then go back.
He couldn''t possibly follow her the whole day, right?
The more she thought about it, the more feasible this n seemed. However, she didn''t notice Bai
Yunan''s face bing increasingly cold.
Around 10.00PM., Cheng Qiulu returned home and entered her own bedroom, only to find Lu Qingyou
lying on her bed ying with her phone. Cheng Qiulu casually threw her bag aside and asked Lu
Qingyou, "Why are you sleeping in my room again? Is Yunan here?"
"Yes." Lu Qingyou was reading aic book, her eyes glued to her phone, not even looking at Cheng
Qiulu.
Cheng Qiulu tied her hair up with a hair tie, sat down by the bed, and curiously questioned, "Qingyou,
why do I feel like Yunan wants to pursue you? Otherwise, why would hee to our home to sleep on
your bed rather than go home?"
"If that''s what he wants to do, what can I do?" Lu Qingyou didn''t even give Cheng Qiulu a passing
nce because her phone had her full attention.

Cheng Qiulu was annoyed with her response and snatched her phone away, tossing it aside. She held
onto Lu Qingyou''s shoulders and seriously asked, "Why is he sleeping on your bed and not mine? I''m
his biological sister. What do you think this means?"
Lu Qingyou''s mind went nk for a moment before mumbling. "What?"
"That means you are more important than his own sister!" Cheng Qiulu said each word with emphasis.
"Stop being silly. It''s no big deal. I''ll let him sleep on your bed next time." Lu Qingyou brushed Cheng
Qiulu''s hand away, grabbed a nearby pillow, and hugged it in her arms, sounding a bit disappointed.
"How important can I be to him? In his eyes, I''m the same as you, so he only sees me as his sister."
"He hasn''t ever shown me, his own sister, the same level of affection as he does for you."
Cheng Qiulu had recently been getting along well with a guy from the research institute, and Lu
Qingyou thought she was just being foolish because she was so in love.
Lu Qingyou became irritated and eximed, "Go take a shower already."
"Alright, alright. I''ll stop talking." Cheng Qiulu walked towards the bathroom while secretly scheming in
her mind.
Lu Qingyou felt a sense of mncholy rising inside of her as shey on the bed listening to Cheng
Qiulu singing in the shower.
Cheng Qiulu had a crush on her cousin Lu Shichu before this, but she had been turned down, and she
felt dejected for a while. She did, however, meet someone from the research institute who pursued her
not long after.
It was rumored that he was Lu Shichu''s assistant.
The two of them had recently begun dating, and things were going well.
As for her, she had just lost her job, and things were not going well in her love life.
…
The next morning, Cheng Qiulu made breakfast.
Cheng Qiulu''s family ran a noodle shop, and her cooking skills were highly praised by her father.
Everything she made was delicious.
For breakfast, she cooked noodles and made two side dishes.
And Lu Qingyou ate with gusto.
Just as Cheng Qiulu finished eating, the phone rang.
Seeing her excited expression, Lu Qingyou knew that it was the assistanting to pick her up.
She then nced at Bai Yunan.
Bai Yunan turned to face her, his voice cold, and said, "Eat quickly, or you''ll bete."
Lu Qingyou kept quiet when she heard that.
…
Lu Qingyou was a little nervous on the way to thepany.
She always felt guilty and afraid when she lied to Bai Yunan.
Lu Qingyou hadn''t even noticed the car had stopped because she had been distracted the entire time.
Bai Yunan rested one hand on the steering wheel, turned his head, and calmly looked at her. With a
low voice, he stated, "We''re here."
"Oh, okay." Lu Qingyou reacted and quickly opened the car door to get out.
Bai Yunan watched her exit the vehicle as his hand unconsciously tightened on the wheel.
After Lu Qingyou walked a distance away, she turned around and saw that Bai Yunan''s car was still
parked there, showing no signs of leaving.
Although she couldn''t see Bai Yunan''s face, she knew that he must be watching her.
For some reason, she felt a strange sensation of being choked from the inside.
The reason why Bai Yunan would give her an earful was because he cared about her.
In general, Bai Yunan was not a talkative person; he was a man of few words, and when he was angry,
he became even more terrifying. But she was aware that everything he did, said, reprimanded, or
treated harshly towards her was done for her own benefit.
As she thought about it, she found it difficult to move her legs.
She shouldn''t have lied to him like this.
With this thought, she turned around and ran back.
When she reached the front of the car, she opened the door, panting, and said to Bai Yunan, "Yunan, I
actually lost my job. I don''t need to go to work today. I lied to you."
She looked at Bai Yunan while gripping her bag firmly and tensely, like a child who knew she had done
something wrong and was dreading the iing reprimand but had no choice but to endure it.
Bai Yunan slightly pursed his lips as he was looking at her anxious gaze. He couldn''t bear it and took
back the words on the tip of his tongue, and coldly said, "Get in."
Lu Qingyou blinked her eyes, finding it difficult to ept what she had heard.
Yunan isn''t angry? Or is he nning to take me back and then scold me?
Thinking of this possibility, she lowered her head and got into the car, keeping her distance from Bai
Yunan by sitting as close to the car window as possible.
He actually found out about her boss harassing herst night, and he was furious at the time, so furious
that he wanted to drop everything and go find her.
But on the way there, he gradually calmed down and remembered what she had said before, that she
should make her own decisions about her own matters.
She had grown up, and he couldn''t force her with the same methods he used to use on children.
He anticipated that she would go back to her rented t, so he arrived early to wait for her.
Bai Yunan was waiting for her to take the initiative and tell him. He believed that in Lu Qingyou''s heart,
he should be someone she could trust.
But he didn''t expect her to be so heartless. He waited all night, and she didn''t say anything. When he
said he would take her to work, she even nned to lie to him.
So he was really angry because of that.
And seeing her avoid him in this manner, keeping her distance, fueled his rage even more.
He gave her a cold stare and said, " Sit closer."
