Lu Yushi adjusted his tie with a calm expression, and Xiao Chun hurried up to knock on the door.
Inside, Su Xiaolai was on the phone in one of the rooms, so Su Weiwei went to open it. The moment the door opened, she found Lu Yushi standing outside!
Lu Yushi hadn’t expected to see Su Weiwei in Section Chief Mu’s home, let alone wearing an apron…
His gaze turned icy. So that was why she hadn’t cried or made a fuss during the divorce this morning—she already had someone lined up!
For some reason, Lu Yushi suddenly felt irritated. Extremely, extremely irritated!
“What are you doing here?” he asked coldly.
Su Weiwei sneered. “Why can’t I be here? What’s it to you?”
In the past, she had always spoken to him cautiously. This was the first time she’d been so blunt.
Lu Yushi’s expression grew even darker.
This was the woman who had once claimed she loved him so desperately?
Who said she couldn’t live without him?
Lu Yushi had always been a machine without feelings, interested only in making money.
But this was the first time a woman had stirred his emotions. The more upset he felt, the colder his face became.
Assistant Xiao Chun was bewildered, thinking maybe they had the wrong address.
He checked the slip of paper, but his thumb was still pressing over the “1.”
“Nope, this is the right place…” he muttered.
Since Xiao Chun had confirmed it, Lu Yushi didn’t imagine he could be so careless.
“Where’s Section Chief Mu?” he asked coolly.
Su Weiwei froze. “Section Chief Mu?”
Mu Junze?
Her mind conjured up the image of a refined, elegant man. In her last life, while hiding from Lu Yushi in the countryside, she had seen him on the news.
But she’d never met Mu Junze in person—only knew he was the one in charge of approving the University City project.
Now she understood—Lu Yushi was here to find Mu Junze, but he had come to the wrong door.
For Lu Yushi to come in person… it must mean there was trouble with the University City project.
A sharp glint flickered in Su Weiwei’s eyes as she smirked. “You’ve got the wrong place. There’s no Section Chief Mu here. See yourself out!”
Then, without hesitation—bang!—she slammed the door shut!
Lu Yushi, shut out, looked furious.
He had caught the flash in her eyes just now.
That damn woman—she had done it on purpose!
Xiao Chun quickly pressed the doorbell and called out through the video system, “Open up… open up, Madam Mu!”
Since Su Weiwei and Lu Yushi’s marriage had been secret, Xiao Chun had no idea she was the president’s ex-wife.
So he kept calling her Madam Mu.
Hearing the words “Madam Mu” made Lu Yushi’s ears burn with irritation.
This morning she had still been Mrs. Lu. By the afternoon, she was Madam Mu?
Xiao Chun turned back, confused. “President Lu, what do we do? She’s not opening the door…”
Lu Yushi’s voice was glacial. “Keep pressing!”
Inside, Su Weiwei heard the relentless chime, along with that clueless assistant’s endless calls of “Madam Mu.”
Her face darkened. With one tug, she ripped the doorbell system right out!
Su Xiaolai, finishing her call, came out and asked curiously, “Sis, who was it?”
“It was Lu Yushi,” Su Weiwei replied.
Su Xiaolai froze, her face twisting into anger. “He dares to come here?!”
Meanwhile, outside, Xiao Chun broke into a sweat when the doorbell suddenly stopped working.
Oh no, oh no—Section Chief Mu’s door had just been replaced, and he’d already broken the bell!
Looking pitifully at Lu Yushi, he stammered, “President Lu… wh-what do we do?”
Grinding his teeth, Lu Yushi said coldly, “Knock. Keep knocking until she opens.”
Xiao Chun had no choice but to start banging on the door.
Thud, thud, thud! The noise went on and on.
Su Weiwei grew impatient.
She yanked the door open and snapped, “What now? Trying to rush me to the grave? I told you, Mu Junze isn’t here!”
Until she could destroy Lu Yushi, she had no desire to see him at all.
Hearing her speak Mu Junze’s name made Lu Yushi’s face even darker.
Just as he was about to speak, a figure rushed out from inside—
Su Xiaolai, holding a huge basin of water, dumped it all over him with a splash!
“Ahhh!” Xiao Chun yelped, hugging the documents and stumbling backward.
The mighty President Lu, with one hand still in his pocket, was instantly drenched from head to toe, soaked through.
Hands on her hips, Su Xiaolai shouted, “Get lost! Get the hell out! Can’t you see my sister doesn’t want to see you?!”
With a loud clang, she hurled the basin down at his feet, her face full of defiance.
Lu Yushi: “…”
