Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: A scumbag blocking the way, quick to escape

That frivolous and somewhat self proclaimed charming voice, like a cold electric current, instantly penetrated all of Lin Wan's psychological preparations, causing her blood to almost freeze in an instant. Lu Renjia! How could he be here?! In the script of his past life, he should have been invited out by Bai Lianhua at the right time halfway through the party, when she was most embarrassed and ridiculed by everyone, to play the roles of the "Comforter" and "Flower Guardian", easily capturing her trust and gratitude! Why did he appear at the gate early? Still stopping her who just got off the car so accurately?! The huge accident left Lin Wan's brain momentarily blank, but memories of countless betrayals and humiliations in her past life surged up like a conditioned reflex, instantly suppressing the panic and transforming into cold vigilance and disgust. She forced herself to calm down and quickly analyze. The appearance of Lu Renjia is not accidental. Either Bai Lianhua suddenly changed her plan and asked him to come in advance to "take care of" her, ensuring that she would definitely fall into the trap; Either it is the butterfly effect generated by her own rebirth, which triggers unpredictable changes. Regardless of the situation, the current crisis must be resolved immediately. Never get entangled with him before the party starts! Lin Wan slowly turned around, wearing a distant yet polite mask on her face, her eyes calm and unfocused, as if she was looking at a completely unfamiliar person. She deliberately ignored his frivolous "brother" and only glanced lightly at him and his slutty sports car. Lu Renjia clearly saw her face. At that moment, a strong sense of astonishment and possessiveness swept through his eyes without any disguise. The girl in front of him is completely different from Lin Wan, who always lowers her head, dresses in rustic clothes, and speaks softly in his memory! A well cut black dress outlines a green yet enticing curve, and the cool makeup highlights the delicacy of the facial features, especially the eyes, which are no longer timid and evasive, but like black glass immersed in ice water, cold and bright. Is this really that Miss Lin's local bumpkin? Lu Renjia's calculations immediately cracked in his heart. I was originally just following Bai Lianhua's request to come to the door to "pick up" a silly and easy to manipulate Bai Tian, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a hidden gem! If we get this, we'll have face and maybe we can even use her to tie up the Lin family's boat more tightly... Thinking of this, his smile becomes even more enthusiastic. Taking a step forward, he pretends to be familiar and wants to pull Lin Wan's wrist: "Sister Wanwan? It's really you! I almost didn't recognize you! I'm Lu Renjia. We met at a school event before, remember? Bai Lianhua told me you were coming and specifically asked me to pick you up!" He deliberately spoke ambiguously, implying that Bai Lianhua asked him to "pick you up", and then pointed out the previous "one person relationship", trying to quickly bring our relationship closer. If Lin Wan from his past life had heard these words and seen such a handsome 'senior' treating him warmly, he would have blushed and felt heartbroken, being led away by him in a state of confusion. But now Lin Wan only finds his hypocritical face nauseating. Just one second before his fingers touched him, Lin Wan took a half step back without leaving a trace, avoiding his touch. There was a hint of just right confusion and vigilance on her face, and her voice was cold: 'Senior Lu? Sorry, I don't remember much. Sister Lianhua just told me to go in directly, don't bother Senior anymore.' Her refusal was straightforward, without any dragging or even a clear sense of distance. Lu Renjia's outstretched hand froze in mid air, and her smile froze for a moment. He didn't expect such a reaction at all. Why isn't Lin Wan playing according to the routine? Shouldn't she be shy and pleasantly surprised to accept his "kindness"? Several other wealthy children who were originally watching the excitement at the entrance also noticed the stalemate here, and some even made a few ambiguous sneers, as if mocking Lu Renjia's downfall. Lu Renjia suddenly felt a little uneasy on his face, with a hint of barely noticeable annoyance flashing in his eyes, but soon it was replaced by even stronger interest. A bit temperamental? Better, more fulfilling to tame. He withdrew his hand, shrugged, and pretended to laugh freely, saying, "No trouble, it's on the way. There are many people inside and your eyes are mixed. It's better to have an acquaintance with you when you come to this kind of place for the first time, so as not to be bumped into by some people who don't have eyes." He had something to say, both showing his "thoughtfulness" and implying his "status". Lin Wan sneered inwardly. Collision? Isn't the biggest danger to you? She was pondering how to completely get rid of this piece of candy when the corner of her eye suddenly caught a glimpse of the black Maybach that had just left but returned not far away! It was like a silent shadow, quietly stopping under the shade of a tree across the street. The car window was tightly closed, making it difficult to see the people inside, but Lin Wan was almost certain that Gu Chen was inside, staring over here! He hasn't left yet?! What exactly does he want to do? A bold idea instantly flashed through Lin Wan's mind. Take a gamble! She took a deep breath, and suddenly a faint smile on her face that was enough to make Lu Ren look stunned. Her tone also slowed down slightly, with a hint of "helplessness" in her compromise: "Senior Lu's emotions are hard to resist. However, before we go in, can you please help me with a small favor?" The beauty smiled, and Lu Renjia's bones were already half broken. She couldn't refuse and immediately patted her chest: "Of course! If Sister Wanwan has anything to do, just say it! Senior will definitely help you!" Lin Wan reached out and pointed to the low-key but powerful Maybach across the street, with just the right amount of "distress" on her face: "That seems to be an elder of mine. The car. I think I just left something in his car, it's very important. Could you please accompany me to pick it up? I feel a bit embarrassed to go alone She deliberately spoke vaguely, referring to Gu Chen as an "elder", which not only explained the relationship but also left room for imagination. Lu Renjia looked in the direction she pointed. When his gaze fell on the Maybach emblem and the special license plate representing power, his face suddenly changed! He's in this circle, how could he not recognize what this car represents! That's Gu's car! The person sitting in the car is highly likely to be Gu Chen, the legendary god dragon who can see his head but not his tail - Gu Yanwang! Lin Wan... actually knows Gu Chen?! Can I still ride in his car? Even leaving something on his car?! At this moment, the enchanting thoughts in Lu Renjia's mind were instantly replaced by shock and fear. His gaze towards Lin Wan once again had completely changed, with a hint of surprise, uncertainty, and deep scrutiny. If Lin Wan really has a connection with the Gu family... then the information that Bai Lianhua told him about Miss Lin not being favored and being able to manipulate her at will is all nonsense! He almost got into big trouble! Do you... do you know Mr. Gu? "Lu Renjia's voice became somewhat dry. Lin Wan did not answer directly, but maintained a slightly troubled expression as he turned to General Yi and said, "Didn't Senior say he wanted to help me? Aren't we going over?" Lu Renjia looked at the black car, as if it were some kind of dragon's den, as if her feet were filled with lead. Let him go to Gu Chen's car to get something? He wouldn't dare to lend him a hundred courage! Uh... this... "Sweat beads appeared on his forehead, his eyes flickered, and he began to make excuses hesitantly. Watching his disheveled figure, the faint smile on Lin Wan's lips instantly turned into a cold mockery. He is indeed a useless person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. The crisis is temporarily resolved. But she knew in her heart that this was just a temporary solution. After Lu Renjia enters, she will definitely confront Bai Lianhua immediately. Her lies are likely to be exposed soon. Moreover, in the car across the street... Lin Wan turned around and turned his gaze to the still silent Maybach. She knew that she had just used the other person's name, which was like taking a chestnut from the fire. How would the people in the car react?
