Chapter 121 Lin Zhou Was Here
" Lisha, see who is it." Old master Au was watching the news with his granddaughter when he heard the knock at the door and called for his daughter to check who was knocking at their house at such a late hour, he raised his head and looked at the old clock hanging on the wall and clicked his tongue. At ten pm, it was not a good time for anyone to disturb them but as the owner of this building, the people living in the apartment would often come bringing something for them to eat and on a different occasion, it was an old wine taken from their winery to impress his daughter.
Au Lisha placed the knife on the countertop and sighed as she cleaned her hands on the apron and walked out of the kitchen. " Seriously, dad why don\'t you send little Mei to see who is knocking on the door, I am busy cooking dinner for you guys."
"Nonsense, my granddaughter is watching television with her grandfather, this is our \'us\' time, don\'t you dare disturb us, shoo shoo." Au Mei was Old master Au\'s first grandchild and he doted on her a lot, of course, he wouldn\'t let her do such a thing as opening the door and entertaining the guests when he knew that the one who was standing outside most probably came to look for Au Lisha.
Since his daughter was an actress, she was often sought by the residents of this apartment who would come knocking on their door asking for autographs. Old man Au has forgotten just how many times he had to call the security because a frantic fan came to look for his daughter, sending his granddaughter was just out of the question!
His daughter knew self-defence and would be fine but his dear granddaughter ——wouldn\'t she be scarred for life? What will he do then?
It was better to let Au Lisha handle it, if the situation called for him then he will take action.
" Ah, Zhou! You…why didn\'t you tell me that you were coming home?" Old master Au heard his daughter\'s infatuated voice and his temples started to throb, he really didn\'t know why his daughter was so in love with this Lin guy. Exactly what did he have that the others didn\'t?
Because he wasn\'t focusing on his granddaughter, he didn\'t see that her face has gone ashen. Au Mei peered over through her grandfather\'s tall body and looked at the figure of her \'father\' and a shiver climbed up her spine and buzzed her head—— she did not know why but every time her father came home, her entire body would start hurting and the pain that she had to suffer through was something that she didn\'t like at all.
And she didn\'t like her father either, he looked —- scary.
Seeing that no one was taking notice of her, she slipped off the couch and ran back to her room and closed it with the lock snapped in its place. What she didn\'t know was that even if she locked the room, if her father wanted he could easily open it and go inside with the master key that he owned.
Au Lisha didn\'t know that her daughter was taking precautions against her biological father, instead, she was looking at her husband with stars in her eyes. Six years ago, she met with an accident and if not for Lin Zhou who appeared out of nowhere like a prince, she would have died it was all thanks to him that she was still alive.
What she didn\'t know was that the accident that day was no \'accident\' but a premature plan that was set into motion because of her naivety.
Lin Zhou wasn\'t handsome, he had an average face (like the author lol) one that would be lost in the crowd if she were to be thrown in and nor was he talented in business, with Au Lisha by his side, he looked even average than he was. Yet for some reason when he was with Au Lisha, his ego as a man would be stroked and he would start thinking that he was better than her in every way possible.
" Yeah, I am back," he smiled kindly as he looked past Au Lisha\'s shoulders and frowned when he saw that Au Mei was nowhere to be found because he didn\'t want any connection to this daughter he gave birth to and make his wife insecure by giving that brat his name, he allowed Au Lisha to name their daughter after the Au family.
But of course, the reason he gave was that he wanted to let Au Lisha and her father have a descendant since the young master Au was a rather unreliable gangster.
The unreliable gangster young master Au: "…..". dafuq this man is talking about?
Au Lisha was very happy as she hugged her husband she went on her tiptoes to kiss him, seeing what she was doing Lin Zhou moved his head away timely avoiding her kiss as he asked, " Where is little Mei?"
Au Lisha didn\'t realise that her husband was avoiding her touch and smiled knowingly thinking that he was being shy because her father sitting in the living room and watching them. " She is sitting right there on the couch," Au Lisha turned to point at where her daughter was sitting but the space was empty.
