Chapter 117

The sudden knock on the door jolted Qiao Anhao out of her daze .

“Mrs . Lu”, Madam Chen called out .

Qiao Anhao hurriedly put the letter back into the box and sealed it shut before putting it back into the luggage . After locking the luggage, she placed it back into the original spot and went to open the door .

Behind them, Madam Chen held onto an exquisite porcelain bowl . “Mrs . Lu, I made some ginger soup . It’s been raining the whole day, you should have some to not catch a cold . “

After drinking the ginger tea, thin sweat broke out on Qiao Anhao’s back, and Madam Chen left with the empty bowl . Qiao Anhao climbed onto the bed, randomly scrolling through Weibo . Most of the friends she followed were also in the entertainment industry and a large portion of her Weibo was filled with birthday wishes to Song Xiangsi . Even Lu Jinnian had sent a simple “Sis, happy birthday” with a birthday cake emoticon at the back .

No more than three hours after the post, there were more than ten thousand comments . Qiao Anhao clicked to expand the section and, as usual, it was flooded with fans calling him “Hubby”

Qiao Anhao also directed a birthday post to Song Xiangsi . Surprisingly, she replied with a “Thank you, little sis . ” instantly .

In the drama ‘Alluring Times’, Qiao Anhao acted as the little sister of Song Xiangsi’s character, and inside the drama, Song Xiangsi’s character would address Qiao Anhao as “little sis” . The affectionate tone she had used was just a reference to the drama .

Once Song Xiangsi replied to Qiao Anhao’s post, comments from her fans and Lu Jinnian’s fans flooded in instantly . Since Lu Jinnian was also acting in ‘Alluring Times’, his fans stayed up to date with any news regarding the drama . Once they saw Song Xiangsi addressing Qiao Anhao as “Little sis”, they knew that she was partnered with Lu Jinnian, hence many of his fans left comments on the post .

“So you are my husband’s new mistress!”

“Pretty indeed!”

“Don’t you dare seduce my husband!”

“Oh my, why are my love rivals all so pretty! I feel under pressure!”

. . .

Qiao Anhao scrolled through all the replies and after reading through a countless number, she started getting sleepy, finally dozing off with her phone .

When Lu Jinnian entered Mian Xiu Garden, he could see through his car window that all the lights in the mansion were switched off except for a faint glow coming from the room on the second floor .

Lu Jinnian didn’t drive into the garage but instead stopped in front of the door . He left the car and entered the house .

Madam Chen didn’t come out, probably asleep .

He changed his shoes and using the dim light from the living room went upstairs .
