Jin Xianglan smiled a faint smile . “Xiangdong is my little brother and you are my brother's girlfriend . Judging by his affection for you, I think we will become a family sooner or later even if we are not a family now . ”

Lu Jia'er could feel that Jin Xianglan's words were full of lies . Both she and Jin Xiangdong were created by Jin Xianglan . How could they ever truly be considered Jin Xianglan's family?

“Professor Jin, you would be awarded as Best Actress at Oscars if you were an actress!” Lu Jia'er retorted sarcastically .

Jin Xianglan's smile remained on her face . “Professor Lu, you seem to be very hostile to me right now! Xiangdong, help me out here . ”

Jin Xiangdong understood Lu Jia'er's personality and he knew she would not say those words without a reason, not to mention to treat someone so impolitely, especially when this someone was his sister . He thought the reason that she was becoming hostile was because she found out she was created by his father and sister . A fact like that would not only terrify the involved party, i . e . , Lu Jia'er, but also terrified him .

Truth was, Jin Xiangdong could only understand a part of her thoughts . What he did not know was that Lu Jia'er was becoming unfriendly because of him, not herself .

Jin Xianglan asked him to try to talk some sense into Lu Jia'er, which posed a dilemma for him . Soon, he made up his mind . “Sister, tell the security guards to withdraw!”

Lu Jia'er felt her heart warm as she heard his words . She looked at him . Jin Xiangdong still had no idea what the reality of the situation was but at this critical moment, his instinct was to trust her . His tall and straight figure was like a towering tree, s.h.i.+elding her from the wind and rain .

Jin Xianglan threw a look at Jin Xiangdong . The former seemed to have complicated feelings . “Withdraw!” Nevertheless, she gave the order after a second .

That decision confused Lu Jia'er . Was this Jin Xiangdong really that important to Jin Xianglan? It was a surprise that she would listen to his demand .

The security guards looked at Jin Xianglan but did not move . She glared at them and said in a harsh tone, “I said, withdraw!”

“We can withdraw but they must hand over their firearms!” A man that looked like the team leader of the security guards said .

Jin Xianglan said to Lu Jia'er, “Professor Lu, what do you think?”

Lu Jia'er looked around and then exchanged eye contact with Jin Xiangdong . Afterward, she gave the stun gun to the security guard in front of her .

Jin Xianglan put on a smile of satisfaction . Jin Xiangdong did not hold on to his gun now that Lu Jia'er had given up hers .

The security guards surrounding them began to leave . Even so, Lu Jia'er was still on alert . She kept her eyes firmly on Jin Xianglan because she could not figure out Jin Xianglan at all .

Jin Xianglan could not help but burst into laughter . “Professor Lu, don't be so nervous!”

Lu Jia'er sneered . “What do you want to do now?”

“Follow me to the conference room . ” Jin Xianglan said .

“The conference room?” Lu Jia'er stared at Jin Xianglan, alarmed .

“Go and meet the creation team . ” Jin Xianglan explained .

“What if I refuse?” Lu Jia'er asked .

Lu Jia'er's resistance was not easily eased . If anything, it had grown more intense . “We will tell you anything you want to know . ” Jin Xianglan said .

“Do you think I will trust you?” Lu Jia'er snorted .

“At least you can try to trust us . ” Jin Xianglan replied .

Jin Xiangdong, who was standing off to the side, noticed that the two of them still sounded hostile, which was even more true for Lu Jia'er . He grabbed Lu Jia'er's hand . “I will be there with you . ”

But Lu Jia'er shook her head at him . “Ace, don't trust anyone! Especially the ones that claim to be your family!”
