Back Then, I Adored You Chapter 863 You Should Get Lost, Too 6

A mere nanny… Nanny… He probably knows that’s what I’ve been telling his neighbors.

And that’s another opportunity he’s taken to viciously use my own words against me.

Xu Wennuan’s hands, which were hanging down by her sides, trembled hard as she lifted her head and looked at Lu Bancheng, who met her gaze but with no intention of replying to her. He then turned his head away coolly and heartlessly to look at the secretary.

When he saw the smile on the secretary’s face and his eyes met hers, the coldness in his eyes was instantly replaced with gentleness. He didn’t speak and merely listened attentively to her as she spoke.

\”So she is the nanny. I thought she was Master Lu’s…\” The secretary intentionally stopped her sentence midway. Lu Bancheng obviously knew what she wanted to say, but he still played along and asked, \”She is my…?\”

Because women are naturally hostile toward other women, and that hostility is intensely heightened when the women are interested in the same man, when the secretary heard Lu Bancheng’s words, she turned and pretended to take a mindless glance at Xu Wennuan. A hint of wonder flashed across her eyes while she smiled.

Xu Wennuan was certain of one thing since hearing Master Lu saying that she was a nanny, without telling her who she really was to him.

My relationship as of now with Master Lu is terrible. The more I incite him, the more he will belittle me…

The secretary fluttered her eyelashes and looked at Lu Bancheng before saying in a seemingly innocent manner, \”I thought she was a girl whom Master Lu likes?\”

Lu Bancheng chuckled as if he had heard a great joke, and a look of sarcasm crawled all over his gentle face. \”How is that possible? Why would I like a girl like her?\”

Lu Bancheng leaned against the dining table nonchalantly. With a hint of glee from his revenge, he added in a pleased voice, \”At most, she is only a condiment for life and is merely for me to toy with…\”

Merely to toy with…

Xu Wennuan felt as if someone had slapped her mercilessly, and her originally fair face turned ghostly pale in an instant.

The secretary was humored by Lu Bancheng’s words and chuckled. \”Master Lu, you have such a sharp tongue.\”

Her laughter made Xu Wennuan increasingly embarrassed. This time, she did not even look at Lu Bancheng. Hanging onto her body, which was threatening to give way, she turned and dashed toward the entrance. This was not her home, and she had no right to chase him away but she could leave.

Perhaps because Xu Wennuan’s steps were too quick, or because she was affected by alcohol and recovering from her high fever from the night before, her legs gave way after she walked a few steps, and she crumpled to the ground.

Lu Bancheng, who was leaning against the dining table, straightened his body abruptly and subconsciously stepped toward where Xu Wennuan had fallen. Xu Wennuan was stronger than he had imagined, as she quickly got off the floor as if she felt no pain and dashed toward the entrance.

Lu Bancheng felt a sense of panic in his heart and completely ignored his secretary’s question, \”Master Lu, what’s wrong?\” He quickly strode out of the dining room and, when he was close to the entrance area, he heard the apartment door closed shut.

Lu Bancheng seemed to have been shocked back to his senses as he stood rooted to his spot with his eyes staring fixedly at the empty entrance without blinking.
