Chapter 239 - 240: Wait for Me to Find You (4)
The plane flew for two hours and arrived at Lou Xi’s hometown, stopping at the business terminal. Lou Xi planned to go back by herself, but the driver disagreed, claiming it was arranged by Qin Mobai, and insisted on safely taking Lou Xi home.
All the way, Lou Xi was still very nervous.
Earlier, she had called her mother, saying that she would return during the National Day holiday and would bring someone back with her.
At the time, Yang Lihua assumed it was just Lou Xi’s friend, and Lou Xi didn’t clarify, thinking she could explain later.
As it turned out, Qin Mobai did not come with Lou Xi, which made things awkward.
It only took an hour to get home from the airport. They lived in a small town by the water. The car couldn’t go further past the entrance, so after thanking the driver, Lou Xi prepared to go in with Lou Nan.
The driver got off and took seven or eight gift boxes from the trunk.
Bird’s nests, ginseng, cordyceps... all high-end health products, leaving Lou Xi stunned.
"Miss Lou, these were prepared by the young master, who insisted on you being safely delivered home," the driver said respectfully.
The Bentley had already attracted attention when it arrived at the town entrance as such a luxury car was rarely seen here, surrounded by a few children and uncles and aunties.
Sharp-eyed, recognized them as the two daughters of the Lou Family.
But as they knew, the Lou Family had always been relatively poor, so how could their daughter be driven home in such a luxurious car?
The middle-aged driver seemed to show great respect to Lou Xi, what was this all about?
Lou Nan noticed the eyes on them and the whispers, tugged at Lou Xi.
"Let’s hurry home, don’t embarrass ourselves here."
In a small place, suddenly there’s a good car; it’s probably already been talked about by the Lou Family.
So this was why Lou Xi initially wanted to return by herself.
But there was no choice now, what else could be done?
The driver was devoted to completing Qin Mobai’s order, insisting on delivering Lou Xi to her doorstep.
Just as they reached the doorstep, Lou Jian Country saw the person accompanying Lou Xi and his face turned grim. As the neighbors said, Lou Xi was brought back by an old man!
How humiliating!
"Dad—" Lou Xi called out, seeing Lou Jian Country’s particularly unpleasant expression. She realized why he was angry, given what had just happened.
But before she could speak, Lou Jian Country stepped forward, pulling Lou Xi over, "Get in quickly, don’t embarrass us outside!"
Lou Nan glanced at Lou Xi, eyes full of schadenfreude, and then cheerfully went into the house.
"Miss Lou, where should I put these things..."
"Get lost, get lost, who wants your things!" Lou Jian Country was about to chase the driver away with a broom!
Lou Xi felt especially embarrassed, wanting to apologize to the driver, but was abruptly pulled inside by Lou Jian Country who slammed the door shut, giving Lou Xi no chance to speak!
Once the door was shut, Lou Jian Country pointed at Lou Xi and said, "I asked you to study at a university outside, what have you been doing out there? Who is that man? Why did he drive you home, why so many gifts? Are you... are you..."
Lou Xi looked at the agitated Lou Jian Country, guessed what he meant but hadn’t finished saying.
