Hidden identities of the AI Heiress

Chapter 228: Chapter 228: You’ve mistaken me for someone else

She was the one who had lived in the Lu Family for over a decade, accompanying the Lu family members for all those years.

Qiao Yun was merely someone who shared the same bloodline with the Lu family members. She didn’t accompany them for over a decade; Qiao Yun had no right to say that.

Lu Ting was very angry, but she couldn’t make a scene on the spot, so she found an excuse and went to the restroom to wash her face.

At the restroom, she calmed down for a while.

When she was about to leave, she suddenly came face-to-face with a lady who had just entered, catching both off guard.

Lu Ting only glanced at her and then moved to leave.

When the lady saw Lu Ting, her eyes filled with surprise, astonishment, disbelief, a complexity so profound that Lu Ting couldn’t understand it.

“You, are you Gu Ting…?”

Lu Ting frowned, “You’ve mistaken me for someone else. My name is Lu Ting.”

“Lu…”

The lady seemed to think of something, anger bubbling up within her. But before she could erupt, another person came in.

“It’s time to go.”

Lu Zhanxing, seeing that Lu Ting had been in the restroom for so long, had asked Qiao Yun to check on her.

When the lady saw Qiao Yun, her face turned pale instantly, then she bowed her head in a hurry and left with quick steps.

As if Qiao Yun was some kind of flood beast.

Lu Ting muttered, “She must be crazy.”

Qiao Yun took a glance at the lady’s retreating figure, then calmly withdrew her gaze.

Confirmed: She didn’t know her.

As for why the lady was so panicked upon seeing her, Qiao Yun didn’t know and wasn’t interested in finding out.

Apart from dealing with people, she wasn’t the kind of person with a strong sense of curiosity.@@novelbin@@

Afterwards, Lu Zhanxing went to Xingcan Entertainment to settle his contract issue. Now that Xun Minzhi had fallen, the company didn’t dare to keep him.

After all, Lu Zhanxing was a prime suspect in Xun Minzhi’s downfall; who knew what kind of backing he had?

Moreover, with Xun Minzhi and Xia You’s scandal, the company’s market value had plummeted, and it was quickly divided up.

One of the former top three entertainment companies was on the verge of closure.

Lu Zhanxing was still a bit stunned; terminating the contract went so smoothly that Xun Minzhi truly seemed to have completely disappeared.

He had only overheard once by chance that Xinghe Group was in turmoil recently and that the Xun Family was likely done for, probably because of this Xun Minzhi didn’t have the means to give him more trouble.

On the same day that Lu Zhanxing terminated his contract, Qi Lu wanted to invite him to Shenghuan Entertainment and offered very generous terms.

Since Lu Zhanxing was Professor Qiao’s elder brother, Qi Lu also had the intention of flattering Professor Qiao.

However, Lu Zhanxing declined. He didn’t want to be bound by a contract again, and he wanted to open his own studio.

Besides, he didn’t want to be protected by his sister time and again; he was the older brother, and it was his duty to protect his sister.

On the last day of the holiday, Lu Zhanxing decided to quietly take Qiao Yun out to celebrate the successful termination.

He didn’t tell Su Mian and Lu Ting because he feared they would worry if they knew about the troubles he had faced, especially Su Mian.

Qiao Yun felt a bit awkward when she told Lu Zhanxing over the phone, “I’ve already promised someone else.”

“Who?”

Who was competing with him for his sister’s time!

Qiao Yun said, “Li Hanzhou.”

Five minutes before, Li Hanzhou had said he happened to be passing by and wanted to have dinner with her.

She naturally wouldn’t refuse a friend’s invitation.

“Why don’t we all go together?”

Lu Zhanxing made a decision. He remembered the way Li Hanzhou had looked at his sister, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it seemed. So, he wanted to use this opportunity to observe.

To figure out exactly what was wrong.

Qiao Yun agreed, asked Li Hanzhou, and after receiving an affirmative answer, they arranged to meet at the most expensive five-star restaurant in Hai City.

It was highly confidential and the food was good too.
