Zhao Chen stamped his foot, “Mr. Gu, I know. I will also instruct people to keep an eye out and to protect her as much as possible without Miss Lu knowing.”
Only then did he feel reassured to board the plane.

When Lu Wanwan arrived at Cinema City, the movie hadn’t ended yet.
She sent a text to Xiaomo, asking for the exact time, so they could call her when they came out.
Then she found a snack bar nearby and ordered a bowl of spicy hotpot.
While holding the chopsticks, she couldn’t help but laugh.
She had just missed out on such a high-end meal, but here she was, eating spicy hotpot and finding it delicious.
However, when she recalled the brief expression that slipped from Gu Annan right before he left, her brows furrowed.
He was always a man of composure, so something that could make him frown must not be a trivial matter.
With this in mind, she started searching on her phone while eating the spicy hotpot, checking to see if there was any major news about the Gu Corporation recently.
After a thorough search, she found nothing significant.
Instead, what she saw were some recent international collaborations of the Gu Corporation.
However, many internal group matters are not immediately known to the media, so even though she found nothing, she wasn’t surprised.
She also checked some other things and saw that the rumors about her from before had gradually subsided after a while.
As the scandal cooled off and with some management, it quickly left the hot public spotlight.
She also stumbled upon something unexpected, she, the person who was supposedly blackened beyond recognition, actually had people speaking up for her, and they garnered quite a bit of agreement.
After waiting over two hours, she finally received a call from her son and went to the exit to pick them up.
“Mommy!” Little Youyou ran over, “Eh, where’s Uncle Gu?”
Lu Wanwan crouched down, “Uncle Gu had something come up, so he couldn’t make it. How was the movie?”
“Awesome!” Little Youyou’s face beamed with a smile, “Brother liked it, and I liked it too.”
She smiled along and raised her eyebrows at her son, “Happy?”
“Mommy, what do you want to say,” Little Momo spread his hands, “It’s just a movie.”
“Brother, after the movie, there was also a hug with them,” Little Youyou reminded.
Little Momo helplessly replied, “Okay, okay, after the movie, there was also a meet-and-greet with the actors. But such things aren’t that important!”
He didn’t want his mommy to think he could be bribed just by watching a movie.
Though it was a great film, it was just a popcorn flick, and of course, his mommy remained his favorite.
“Happy things are always important,” Lu Wanwan touched his round head, “Thank him next time.”
Little Momo’s eyes lit up. Did that mean Daddy succeeded?
“Let’s go, head home,” Lu Wanwan stood up, leading them out of Cinema City.
As soon as they came out, they bumped into a travel-weary Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen quickly waved when he saw them, “Miss Lu, over here.”
“Why are you here?” Lu Wanwan looked at Zhao Chen in surprise, “Didn’t you just… call me?”
“Yes,” Zhao Chen said with distress, “There was some urgent news I had to convey to Mr. Gu, and he had to take a flight suddenly. I’m really sorry, his plans weren’t supposed to be like this today. However, Miss Lu, I’m still in Manchester, so you can reach out to me if you need anything.”
Little Youyou tilted her head, blinking, “Uncle Zhao, what plans?”
Zhao Chen certainly did not want to be the one to say it, “I’m not sure of the specifics, Mr. Gu was supposed to be with you at this time, but that left Miss Lu waiting here alone for so long. Let’s get in the car first, I’ll take you home.”
