Chapter 53 No wonder you didn't catch up with her
The next day, Pei Du woke up earlier than Jiang Sier.

He was awakened by thirst, and he didn't get the same treatment from Lu Huai as Jiang Si'er. Lu Huai was very considerate of him by covering him with a blanket.

"Oh my god, you scared me!" She staggered out of the bedroom in a daze, and after only a few steps she was scared awake by Lu Huai.

Pei Du still has some memories of last night.

He rubbed his eyes and checked the time. "Oh my god, what are you doing sitting here so early in the morning?"

It's not even daylight outside yet.

It's only six o'clock.

Or... "You didn't sleep all night, did you?"

Does this guy have the habit of standing guard while others sleep?

Lu Huai really sat in the living room all night. He didn't move much all night, and his back was still a little stiff when he stood up.

"Do you know Jiang Sier's mother?"

"I don't know, what's going on?"

Lu Huai also gave a general account of what happened last night. Pei Du became alert after hearing this and immediately became serious: "I asked my sister's assistant before, but let alone her assistant, no one in Croissant has ever seen or heard her mention her family."

"I didn't lie to you. My sister didn't tell me either, and I didn't dare to ask her later, for fear of hurting her. You should have known what I know a long time ago."

Maybe it was because he slept well last night, but Pei Du's IQ was particularly high this morning. "Since the other party has a photo of my sister coming to your place, it means that the other party is really an insider. Didn't everyone say that my sister's mother was a famous actress made famous by Director Jiang?"

"Yes." Lu Huai also opened his phone and showed him the hot search news from last night, "At the same time last night, Tan Lan was hospitalized due to domestic violence."

Pei Du: “…”

"Qin Lan?" For Pei Du, who is not very involved in the domestic entertainment industry, this name may be unfamiliar. Fortunately, a careful netizen gave an answer in the square.

"Is it really her?"

"I checked. She has worked with Director Jiang before and there were rumors of an affair with her in the past. It should be her little daughter who contacted Jiang Sier last night."

Lu Huai was naturally busy all night, and he had basically investigated everything. "And Shen Jinmo ran into Jiang Sier in the hospital a year ago. On the same day, Qin Lan was also treated in this hospital for a fracture."

This is a sure thing. Pei Du marveled at his ability while spitting at the actress Tan.

"Is there something wrong with them? She has lived alone since high school, and the mother has never appeared. Now that they are in trouble, they want to find their sister to settle the matter?"

"Where are the photos? Did they really contact the paparazzi? Why don't I post a Weibo to explain myself and say that I was there last night too!"

Pei Du quickly took out his mobile phone, opened Weibo, and was pushed to Lu Huaiye's homepage.

"You sent it?" Pei Du breathed a sigh of relief, "Luckily you were still awake last night."

The mother and daughter took control of public opinion first, so their so-called photos could only be thrown away.

Because Lu Huai and Jiang Sier had been on the hot search list before, some fans were quite upset about this matter. If something else was spread about the two of them, it would be really difficult to end.

Fortunately, when watching the Spring Festival Gala in the evening, he took a few photos with the two of them. The photos showed that the three of them did not do anything beyond the line, just like ordinary friends.

Lu Huai also took back his phone and said, "Be careful. You'd better post a Weibo to explain why the three of us were together last night."

"Good good!"

Pei Du nodded like pecking at rice. Now the two of them must cooperate. FINE—Pei Du: [Happy New Year, I wish you all the best in the new year~ps: Thank you Mr. Lu for your hospitality~ Thank you Mr. Jiang for the New Year red envelope~]

A nine-square grid was thoughtfully attached below. The first few photos were his selfies, and the last one was a group photo of three people.

Two minutes later, Pei Du refreshed his Weibo and found a questioning comment. He explained: [Boss Jiang and Teacher Lu also spent the New Year alone this year, so the three of us simply gathered together to have a New Year's Eve dinner. Hehe.]

Fans: [Wow, the New Year's Eve dinner is so sumptuous, did the baby cook? ]

FINE—Pei Du: [Because we had made the appointment before the New Year, I almost didn’t make it back due to an event, so I couldn’t help much. The dishes were all cooked by Teacher Lu and Mr. Jiang.]

Soon, Lao Gao also came over after hearing the news and commented below: [Wow, Xiao Yu and I could have eaten it too! Unfortunately, we didn’t make it~]

Manager Gao of Croissant can be considered a semi-Internet celebrity in the circle. He has his own personal account and usually interacts with fans of his artists and adopts everyone's suggestions.

As soon as Lao Gao came out, everyone automatically thought that there should be other Croissant staff members at last night's meeting, so there was nothing wrong with Lu Huai's reply "team building".

Pei Du replied to a few more comments, then put away his phone and discussed business with Lu Huai.

"They are really outrageous." Pei Du really wanted to curse. "I haven't heard of them visiting my sister in the hospital in the past few years. Now that something happened, they came to look for her."

"What kind of people are they?"

Pei Du became angrier the more he thought about it. He saw from the corner of his eye that Lu Huai still had that old face that could freeze someone to death at any time. He couldn't help but be curious: "Aren't you angry?"

Lu Huai didn't say anything. He lowered his head and continued to send messages to the studio, asking them to be on the lookout for Qin Lan and say hello to the Weibo team.

"How should I tell my sister about this?" Pei Du is not very good at comforting people. He is always tongue-tied. "You go."

After saying that, he clicked his tongue and said, "No, you're not as good as me."

Lu Huai also: "..."

Pei Du is just a bad talker, sometimes he talks nonsense when he gets excited, and he doesn't know if what he says is right or not. But this is better than Lu Huaiye who doesn't say a word, right?

"Hey, I have to do it again." He looked at Lu Huai from head to toe, shook his head and walked away: "With someone like you, it's no wonder you didn't catch anyone before."

"..."

-

When Jiang Si'er woke up, it was already noon.

Pei Du and Lu Huai spent the whole morning trying to come up with words. They had both figured out how to comfort each other, but Jiang Sier didn't even frown after listening.

Pei Du thought she was just holding on and advised her not to be sad. Jiang Sier looked at him in confusion: "I can't wait to be happy."

"Aren't you sad?"

After Pei Du asked, Lu Huai also looked at her with concern.

Jiang Sier didn't quite understand their train of thought: "? You helped me solve a problem, why should I be sad?"

They can all use Lu Huai to threaten her, so is there any need for her to care about their old friendship?

"But, she is yours...you won't..." Pei Du opened his mouth and closed it silently.

Jiang Sier chuckled, "I am the emperor, not the saint."
