Chapter 703 Appetite

Later in the evening, Lu Jingyuan arrived at Mountview Inn in her Jeep SUV. She didn’t anticipate that renting out the inn would provide a source of income for her and even allow her to become acquainted with a good friend. She thought she was blessed with how things had worked out for her.

After getting out of the car, she retrieved a box from the trunk before walking toward the inn. The box contained desserts from one of the local dessert shops. Lu Jingyuan had deliberately bought the sweet dish for the kids.

Usually, she wouldn’t allow her children to consume too much sweet food and rarely bought them. However, she made an exception at that time because Erbao liked eating desserts.

Unfortunately, right after she stepped into the courtyard, a man running out from inside bumped into her. The impact of the collision caused her to stagger and nearly fall, and the box of desserts she was holding dropped to the floor.

“Xing!” Lu Yunxue was chasing after that man while calling out his name. The man who had run into Lu Jingyuan was none other than Nan Xing.

She almost recognized him as Nan Chen again because of their similar appearance.

On the other hand, Nan Xing correctly identified her at once. He reached out to support Lu Jingyuan, who stumbled after he knocked into her. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were coming in. Still, you should’ve announced your arrival when you entered.”

It was then Lu Jingyuan recalled Ning Ran had told her Erbao’s uncle looked identical to Nan Chen.

The man who had taken advantage of her was this person before her eyes.

Lu Yunxue knew things had gone south when she saw Nan Xing crashing into her mother and the latter’s furious expression.

“It’s you again! You’re so annoying!” Lu Jingyuan bellowed.

Nan Xing could still vividly remember Lu Jingyuan splashing water on him previously.

He didn’t think he had done anything wrong at that time, but she had spattered him with water just because he had tried to chat her up.

Nan Xing felt even more aggrieved that day. He was chided again because he accidentally bumped into Lu Jingyuan while playing with Lu Yunxue.
