Jiang Sui took back what she had said earlier. She never expected that after stepping out just to buy groceries, she would return and witness the very scene she least wanted to see.
Why was her mother chasing Lu Yunze around with a broom?
And why was Lu Yunze holding her mother’s bra?
All these coincidences coming together produced a terrible thought in Jiang Sui’s mind. Perhaps Lu Yunze did not only like large ones. Maybe he also liked women older than himself.
If he truly liked older women, then Jiang Sui really had no solution. A big chest could still be kneaded and made to look bigger, but age was something that simply could not be changed.
If Lu Yunze truly preferred older women, then leaving him at home alone with her mother would be extremely dangerous.
It was said that people with an older woman complex were often accompanied by many strange fetishes.
Although Xia Youqing was no longer young, she was still beautiful. She also lacked the companionship of her husband for many years and only had one daughter.
A situation like this often appeared in adult films or erotic novels.
No matter what, Jiang Sui could not accept Lu Yunze directing his attention toward anyone other than herself.
“What? What are you talking about?” Lu Yunze still looked completely confused.
“Young Master, I really misjudged you.”
Jiang Sui’s expression became extremely unpleasant.
“I trusted you so much, yet while I was gone you did something worse than an animal.”
“What? What did I do?”
While panicking, Lu Yunze suddenly noticed the bra still in his hand.
“Jiang Sui, listen to my explanation. I did not steal this. I just found it by accident.”
Jiang Sui tilted her head slightly. A cold light appeared in her light purple eyes.
“Oh? You are going to say you found it in the wardrobe, right?”
“Uh… how did you know?”
“Young Master, you truly disappoint me.” Jiang Sui looked deeply aggrieved. “I always thought you were an upright and interesting person. But appearances are deceiving.”
On the very first visit to her house, he was already stealing underwear. If he came a few more times, he might end up rolling directly onto the bed.
This was truly unforgivable.
“No, why are both of you mother and daughter the same?”
Lu Yunze was almost going insane when Xia Youqing’s furious roar came from behind him.
“You pervert, and you still dare stand there? I will teach you a lesson!”
Turning around, Lu Yunze saw Xia Youqing charging at him with a broom. He immediately hid behind Jiang Sui.
“Jiang Sui, you are the only one who can save me now!”
“Huh?”
Seeing her mother looking as if she might kill someone, Jiang Sui froze for a moment and temporarily set aside her own irritation.
Seeing her daughter step in front of him, Xia Youqing quickly stopped.
“Sui, move aside.”
“Wait, Mom. Did something happen between you two?”
“I should be the one asking what happened between you two. Why did you bring someone like this home?”
“You are not going to say he happens to be your type, are you?”
“Huh?!” Xia Youqing’s eyes widened.
‘It looks like things were not what I thought.’
Jiang Sui narrowed her eyes slightly and turned to Lu Yunze.
“Young Master, nothing really happened between you and my mom?”
“No. Was I not helping you clean your room? She suddenly tried to chase me out.”
“Then this underwear…”
“I found it in your wardrobe. Your mother said herself it got mixed together when she collected the laundry.”
“So it was a misunderstanding?”
“…What else did you think it was?”
Facing Lu Yunze’s astonished expression, Jiang Sui finally relaxed her furrowed brows.
“So it was just a misunderstanding. That is wonderful, Young Master. You just got your life back.”
Although her smile looked bright and sunny, Lu Yunze could not help feeling a chill down his spine.
He would never know that in the few seconds before the misunderstanding was cleared up, Jiang Sui had already thought about how to deal with his supposedly wandering hands.
If he really liked mature style bras that much, Jiang Sui would not mind chopping off those sinful hands. Then she would make him wear the ones she had worn the previous day on his head every day until the only woman left in his mind was her.
Jiang Sui’s misunderstanding had been cleared up, but Xia Youqing still looked stern and even raised the broom to point at her daughter.
“Sui, move aside. Do not protect this trash.”
“Mom, he is my friend, not some underwear stealing pervert.”
“I know. He already told me about your relationship.”
“Then why are you still…”
“Do you know he belongs to the Luo Family?”
“I know… and I work under him.”
“What?!” Xia Youqing’s eyes widened even more.
“Do you know whose money the one million eight hundred thousand your father owes belongs to?”
“Yes. It belongs to the Luo Family.”
“But what does that have to do with Lu Yunze? He does not play that big.”
“So you two have already played together?”
“Not yet.”
Xia Youqing sucked in a sharp breath and almost choked, coughing violently.
Jiang Sui could roughly guess her mother’s feelings.
Her father had run away for many years, yet Xia Youqing had never divorced him. She must still have feelings for him and could not bear to let go.
But the negative emotions from not seeing her husband for so long kept building up. She could not hate that useless man, nor did she want to vent her anger on her daughter, so she ended up blaming the Luo Family instead.
And at such a moment, Lu Yunze had revealed his identity himself, directly triggering her emotional outburst.
“Mom, I understand how you feel, but please calm down first.”
“Sui, move aside.”
“If you really want to hit Lu Yunze, hit me first. Then no one will stop you.”
“You child… you are becoming more and more outrageous.”
She had only gone out to study for half a year, yet she returned not only with a man, but the son of the family they owed money to.
Xia Youqing could not help beginning to doubt whether the peaceful half year her daughter described was actually true.
“Well… maybe I came at the wrong time…”
Sensing the tension between mother and daughter, Lu Yunze was about to leave, but Jiang Sui grabbed his wrist.
“Young Master, please wait. I was the one who brought you here. Without my permission, you cannot leave.”
“Huh?”
Lu Yunze felt dizzy. He truly did not know what to do. The mother was trying to drive him away, while the daughter held onto him tightly.
“Mom, if you still think I am an ignorant child, then go ahead and hit me. I trust my own judgment.”
“Sui… Jiang Sui, you…”
Xia Youqing raised the broom high.
At that moment, Lu Yunze suddenly stepped in front of the girl and spread his arms.
But the broom never came down.
After a heavy sigh, Xia Youqing lowered it.
“Fine. Sui, you have grown up.”
Jiang Sui peeked out from behind Lu Yunze’s shoulder and blinked.
Xia Youqing still glared fiercely at Lu Yunze.
“For my daughter’s sake, you may come inside too.”
“Ah… okay.”
Lu Yunze hesitated, worried whether he would still be alive after going in.
Back in the living room, Xia Youqing went straight into her bedroom. Lu Yunze sat there restlessly. Fortunately, Jiang Sui stepped in at the right moment and had him help with chores.
Taking half the groceries from the girl and bringing them into the kitchen, Lu Yunze could not help smiling bitterly.
“What is wrong, Young Master?”
“Nothing. I just did not expect my first day at your house to be this thrilling.”
“Yes, it really was thrilling.”
Jiang Sui sighed as well.
“I should not have left you here alone. It was far too dangerous.”
“Why does it feel like the danger you mean is different from what I think?”
“Is it?”
The little maid tilted her head.
“I simply do not want Young Master staying with people who might bring danger.”
“Young Master, I want to ask you a question. You must answer honestly.”
“Go ahead.”
“When you saw my mom’s bra, what did you feel?”
“Can you stop asking such strange questions?”
“Just answer. Did you like it?”
Jiang Sui even stood on her toes in her slippers and leaned closer, nearly putting her face right in front of Lu Yunze. He had no choice but to lean his body backward.
A question that seemed simple and casual was actually a deadly trap.
“If I have to say… the color felt too bright and the style too mature. It is not really suitable for me.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
Only then did Jiang Sui step back slightly.
“That is good.”
“What is so funny about that?”
The smile on Jiang Sui’s face immediately disappeared.
“If Young Master ever wants to steal something in the future, come to me instead.”
Lu Yunze froze.
“As long as Young Master orders it, I can wear any style you want. I can even arrange any kind of stealing situation for you.”
“The only condition is that Young Master must only come to me. You are not allowed to go looking for anyone else.”
“How can you say something like that with such a serious face and call it a joke?”
More importantly, Jiang Sui’s expression did not look like she was joking at all.
