The Lu Family.
Since Lu Xuan played a trick on Qin Yu and Ji Bochang at the restaurant last time, she believed she had successfully helped her brother and had done a great service.
The clinginess of this little princess of The Lu Family towards Lu Cheng also skyrocketed!
Whether Lu Cheng was in his study, handling official business, or taking a rare rest in the living room.
Even when he went to the gym to train, Lu Xuan would follow him like an inseparable shadow, a little tail that couldn't be shaken off.
Her excuse was: "Brother, you're so busy and tired, Xuan'er wants to stay with you and cheer you on! And I can learn from you too!"
Lu Cheng was completely unable to resist his sister's concern and adoration.
Although outwardly, he still maintained the tolerance and composure of an older brother towards his sister.
But deep down, he felt a slight... sweet burden and headache.
And this level of "clinginess" reached an astonishing peak on a certain dark and windy night.
Lu Xuan began to escalate her actions, openly and brazenly "invading" Lu Cheng's sacred and inviolable private territory: his bedroom!
And his super-sized bed, which symbolized absolute power!
Late one night, after Lu Cheng finished a day's work, washed up, and was about to get into bed to enjoy some rare peace and quiet.
He found a little girl standing at the bedroom door... wearing a cartoon one-piece pajama, tightly hugging her teddy bear doll.
Who else could it be but Lu Xuan? Who else in this house could be so free... She was barefoot, with a pair of snow-white, tender little feet, looking at him pitifully with big, watery eyes, unblinking.
"Bro... Brother~"
She drew out her words, her voice soft and sweet like cotton candy, making one's bones go half-numb on the spot.
"Xuan'er slept alone tonight and had a nightmare again, it was so scary."
As she spoke, she used her free hand, not holding the teddy bear, to gently rub her eyes, squeezing out a few "crocodile tears" to deliberately create a pitiful atmosphere of "I really need brother's protection."
"Xuan'er... Xuan'er wants to be with brother, just like when we were little..."
But in the little devil's heart, it was a different story.
Hmph! Brother's bed can only be guarded by me!
And while I'm at it... I'll thoroughly check to see if there's anything hidden on brother's bed that shouldn't be!
Lu Cheng looked at his sister's innocent and naive appearance.
Then he thought about her recent series of obviously abnormal, even somewhat pathological actions and remarks.
His temples, already throbbing from busyness, began to pound again.
Faced with Lu Xuan's possessive and almost presumptuous unreasonable request.
Lu Cheng naturally couldn't actually agree.
What kind of international joke was this?
He ruthlessly rejected his sister's pathological request.
But Lu Xuan, where was she so easily dismissed?
Although she verbally agreed with a wronged expression, and then reluctantly left Lu Cheng's bedroom.
But in reality?
Every late night!
She would sneak back into Lu Cheng's heavily guarded bedroom, like a well-trained, agile little wildcat!
Then, familiar with the layout, she would climb onto Lu Cheng's bed... Although every time, she would be caught red-handed by the highly vigilant Lu Cheng, who, both annoyed and amused, would carry her back to her own room like a kitten... But she still enjoyed it, never giving up!
Since then, Lu Cheng, who controlled everything outside, felt an uncontrollable sense of exhaustion at home.
During the day, Lu Cheng had to deal with his sister's 360-degree, no-dead-angle surveillance.
At night, he finally returned to his room, ready for a good rest.
But he still had to be constantly on guard for the little girl who would sneak into his bedroom like a ghost.
And if he said anything to her, she would immediately get teary-eyed and complain pitifully with accusations like "Brother, don't you love me anymore?" making it impossible to scold her, almost causing him to explode on the spot.
He felt his private space was severely compressed by this suddenly 'darkened' beloved sister!
Even his opportunities for some beneficial "friendly exchanges" with his several confidantes were greatly reduced because of this!
...Just as Lu Cheng felt he was on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
Finally, good news arrived: Modu University was finally starting classes!
The moment Lu Cheng received this news.
He immediately, as a "loving brother," began joyfully preparing all the necessary arrangements for Lu Xuan's enrollment.
That unprecedented enthusiasm.
Even Lu Xuan herself, the person involved, keenly sensed that something was a little off?
"It seems my brother especially wants me to go to school quickly..."
"Does he think I'm disturbing his good times at home?"
"Hmph! Dream on! Even if I go to school, I definitely won't let up!"
"Brother just said he was going to school and would introduce me to his good friend, who's also my senior?"
"Senior? Heh heh... Another one of brother's 'collections,' I suppose!"
On the first day of school.
Lu Cheng personally drove the rolls-royce phantom, with a grand display "befitting The Lu Family's status," carrying his "eagerly anticipating" beloved sister, and sped towards Modu University!
Looking at the increasingly close, solemn, and majestic university gate outside the car window.
A profound and meaningful smile, hard to decipher, curved at Lu Cheng's lips.
"This girl Lu Xuan, her luck is overflowing."
"Throwing her into the university campus, where hidden talents abound, plus there's Xia Qinghe, another destiny-favored heroine, in the school..."
"These two 'protagonist magnets' coming together..."
As the car drove into the Modu University campus, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
And as the man and woman got out of the car, it caused the surrounding students to exclaim in surprise.
"Are they from our school?"
"I've never seen such a handsome boy and such a beautiful girl!"
Among the crowd's discussions, there were, of course, those who recognized The Lu Family siblings.
"You don't recognize them?"
"That's Lu Cheng, the eldest young master of The Lu Family of Modu!"
"As for the girl beside him, she's probably the little princess of The Lu Family, Lu Xuan, who made a high-profile return a while ago!"
Everyone was surprised to hear this, not expecting to see someone of such status.
While the surrounding students were discussing animatedly.
In the crowd, a pure-looking female student in a light blue dress, almost without thinking, lifted her skirt and ran through the onlookers to Lu Cheng, greeting him proactively.
It was none other than Xia Qinghe, the senior Lu Cheng was preparing to introduce to his sister.
"Brother Lu Cheng!"
Lu Cheng looked at her well-behaved and lovely appearance, a gentle smile appearing on his face, and habitually reached out, affectionately stroking her head.
Then, he turned his head to Lu Xuan, who was scrutinizing Xia Qinghe from top to bottom with a look of examination and hostility, and introduced with a smile:
"Xuan'er, come, let me introduce you."
"This is Xia Qinghe, your direct senior at Modu University, whom I've told you about."
"Qing He is not only beautiful and kind-hearted, but her academic performance has also always been among the top in her grade. If you ever don't understand anything at school, you can directly ask Senior Qing He for help, okay?"
Lu Cheng's introduction sounded like he was praising Xia Qinghe's excellence.
But his intimate tone was actually showing Lu Xuan his unusual relationship with Xia Qinghe.
Lu Xuan carefully observed Xia Qinghe in front of her, her mind already calculating.
Brother's taste is indeed not bad; she does look quite pure and lovely.
Most importantly, it seems brother is quite fond of this senior?
Thinking this, a brilliant idea instantly popped into Lu Xuan's calculating little head!
Since brother cares so much about this little senior!
Then I'll just "train" her well, to make brother like her even more.
This way, brother won't have so much time to go out and flirt with those wild women!
I truly am the most thoughtful and best sister to brother!
A sweet smile immediately replaced her expression, and she very affectionately took Xia Qinghe's slightly cool hand.
With an innocent tone, she sweetly called out:
"Wow! So you're Senior Qing He, you're so pretty! Brother always talks about you!"
