Chapter 8: Playboy Lu Qingyu  

Su Wan’s clear eyes swept across the male security guard in his forties and found that he was not a familiar face. Hence, Su Wan started providing him information.

“I live here. My name is Su Wan, granddaughter of Su Heng, young missy of Sheng Ran Group.”

Su Wan thought that this introduction was detailed enough, but she did not expect the security guard to treat it as a joke. He pointed at her and laughed.

“Hahaha, little sis, everyone here knows that Miss Su Yurou is Mr. Su’s granddaughter and that Sheng Ran Group has been amalgamated two years ago. If you want to lie, please think of something better.”

Initially, Su Wan didn’t understand but when she heard the name Su Yurou, she pursed her lips and smiled. She was about to explain to the security guard that Su Yurou was her cousin sister.

However, before she could say anything, the security guard informed her about the amalgamation of Sheng Ran Group two years ago. Su Wan staggered and she had a sudden change of expression.

How could this be?

Sheng Ran Group was her parents’ lifetime painstaking effort. For the development of Sheng Ran, her mother had only given birth to her at the age of 35. Now that her parents were not around anymore, her grandfather definitely would not give up so easily.

Su Wan remembered clearly how her grandfather spoke to her in his study on the day she had gone abroad. He tapped her on the shoulder and his tone of voice was solemn.

“Wan, study hard when you’re abroad. I’m old now. When you return, Sheng Ran will have to depend on you. This is the inheritance from your parents. Don’t let Sheng Ran be destroyed in your hands...”

How did she reply her grandfather that day?

Su Wan’s eyes were slightly wet as she played back the scene of the eighteen-year-old girl looking directly into her grandfather’s eyes.

“Grandfather, I’ll return very quickly. When I return, I’ll bear the responsibility and will not allow dad and mom’s painstaking effort to be destroyed. I will foster and enhance Sheng Ran...”

When the security guard saw that Su Wan was in a trance and staggered, he thought this girl was afraid because she had been exposed of her lie.

He thought she was still young and inexperienced in bluffing. If he were to advise her, she might get back on the right track.

So, the security guard did his best to try to convince her.

“Little sis, you looked like a good girl and you dress well too. Why would you want to lie? Are you trying to use this to find a rich man to rely on? You are still young and there are many rich men here, but women should not just use their appearance...”

The security guard kept talking and brought Su Wan’s attention back. She wanted to ask him about the amalgamation of Sheng Ran but when she was about to ask, she stopped.

He was only a security guard at Cloud Shadow Villa guard house. He didn’t even know that she was Su Heng’s granddaughter and Sheng Ran’s news might be something he simply heard about. He wouldn’t know much about Sheng Ran.

After returning home, she would ask her grandfather.

Su Wan sorted her emotions out and said genuinely to the security guard, “I’m not a swindler. Su Yurou is my cousin sister. If you don’t believe me, you may ask the Su family. Su Yurou has a sister called Su Wan, hasn’t she?”

The security guard didn’t believe Su Wan’s words. He shook his head and looked distressed.

“Nowadays, many attempt to obtain money from rich men here by claiming to be their relatives. You’re not the first. Miss, I’ve given you advice, why can’t you take in what I’ve said? You are young and beautiful, it would be better for you to get back on the right track. You’d better go home.”

Hearing the security guard’s nagging, Su Wan was speechless. She took out her phone from her bag and shook the phone in front of him.

“Uncle, you’ve misunderstood me. I’ll call my grandfather now and let someone from the Su family come and get me, alright?”

Initally, she had wanted to give her grandparents a surprise but now, she had to trouble the old folks. Sigh!

Su Wan unlocked her phone and dialed her grandfather’s number. However, to her surprise, her grandfather’s line was busy.

Su Wan’s expression froze. She dialed again and again but still, nobody picked up her call.

At first, the security guard half-believed her when he saw her taking out her phone. Now that the call couldn’t get through, he was sure Su Wan was trying to buy time.

“Miss, stop deceiving me. Go, go, go, swindlers are not welcomed here.”

It looked like the heavens was messing with her. Su Wan didn’t know if she should be upset or laugh. The security guard was dedicated to work and for a moment, she didn’t have any strategy to enter.

Just at that moment, a stunning model of a sapphire blue Infiniti sports car hurtled toward them. Under the sunlight, it reflected a harsh beam which hurt the eyes.

Just when Su Wan thought the car was about to knock her down, the sapphire blue Infiniti sports car stopped.

The security guard knew the owner just by looking at the car. He ignored Su Wan and greeted the man in the car respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Lu!”

The car window was rolled down and a man with huge sunglasses entered Su Wan’s vision.

The man was wearing a black fur coat. His hair was slightly long and was handsome. Although the sunglasses covered half of his face, from that temperament of his, he looked like a playboy.

The man nodded slightly and his eyes fell on Su Wan. Although he had his sunglasses on, Su Wan felt uneasy with him looking at her from head to toe.

Seeing her frown, the man stared at Su Wan. He smiled and asked, “Su Wan? When did you come home?”

Su Wan was doubtful since he knew her. She probed, “I’m sorry, may I know who you are, please?”

The security guard saw the two engaging in small talk and broke out in cold sweat. Could it be true that this girl wasn’t a swindler?

The man took his sunglasses off slowly, revealing his amorous eyes. He looked devilish.

When Su Wan saw the iconic amorous eyes of his, she was startled. She then recalled who he was. He was the young master of Lu Group, Lu Qingyu.

Lu Qingyu, Su Wan, and Gu Zihang were from the same secondary school. However, Su Wan was two years their junior so before she had even entered the school, she had heard of Lu Qingyu’s name.

She believed there weren’t a second boy who could pursue every pretty girl in the school. Lu Qingyu’s father was the school’s chairman and there was nothing the headmaster could do about him.

Su Wan could still recall the rumors about girls who had undergone abortions for his sake. However, there were still many girls who wanted to be Lu Qingyu’s girlfriend.

He could see that Su Wan had recognized him. Lu Qingyu’s blinked his amorous eyes and pretended to be sad. “Su Wan, you’re heartless. I’ve pursued you before but after three years of being abroad, you’ve forgotten me.”
