Chapter 480 - 462: Trap
Lu Jinsheng got up early in the morning and sneakily slipped out. When he passed by the yard, he was stunned by the strawberries grown on the shelves, layer upon layer, in the yard.
The fruits, red and glistening with dew, looked like art pieces against the backdrop of green leaves, enough to whet anyone’s appetite with just one glance.
Lu Jinsheng paused, reached out to pick several strawberries, and without washing them, popped them directly into his mouth. The sweet fragrance of the strawberries made him close his eyes in enjoyment. If it weren’t for the fear of his mother discovering him and stopping him from leaving the house, he reckoned he could stand there and gorge himself before departing.
Delicious food is certainly valuable, but freedom is priceless.
Lu Jinsheng did not dare to linger, preparing to make a quick escape. But just before leaving, an idea struck him, and he stealthily sneaked into the kitchen to grab a small crystal bowl. He quickly picked a dozen or so strawberries and placed them directly into his Space Storage Device--thinking he could surprise his mother with them when he returned.
Lu Jinsheng wouldn’t be foolish enough to use the number 11 bus during his "running away from home" escapade. As soon as he arrived home yesterday, he had already asked the butler to move his Phaeton from the villa’s garage to the courtyard where he was now parked.
The sound of the car starting woke Xia Na. She turned over and sleepily asked Lu Aiguo, "What time is it? Who’s going out at this hour?" After asking, she jolted awake, realizing that the only person who could depart at this time and cause the sound of the car starting to disturb her was none other than Lu Jinsheng.
She rolled out of bed, threw on her bathrobe, and made a round through the house. Surely enough, she couldn’t find any trace of Lu Jinsheng. When she called his phone and got no answer for a long while, she eventually heard the ring coming from his room.
