Chapter 7 Grandmother Urge to Get Married
Shawn looks back at Jenny before leaving, “Jenny, you’re in this field. You should know the rules. No
company will make any useless artist a star!”
Jenny stays at the flat door with blankness even until Shawn creaks downstairs with her bag.
What Jessica said when Jenny was at the pharmacy echoes in Jenny’s ear.
“Oh that, I don’t mean that... I mean, the weather is terrible. Be careful on your way back. And it’s
important that you keep away from the paparazzi.”
Jenny laughs at herself for her foolishness.
She bought a pregnancy test kit for her girlfriend who has her boyfriend’s baby. And she gets cast
aside after her girlfriend sneakily let out the news to reporters.
Diffuse Cafe!
All of a sudden, Jenny recalls that this seems to be the cafe where the man said last night he would
exchange their phones with her.
Thinking that she may have taken his phone, Jenny rushes to change her clothes.
Hopefully, the man is in the cafe!
Jenny leaves the flat in about ten minutes. She stops a taxi and sets out straightly for Diffuse Cafe.
There is pretty much important information in her phone. Would the man swipe her phone?
Jenny is worried about that, biting her lip.
Noticing the phone vibrates in her pocket, Jenny picks it up without hesitation.
Before she says anything, an old voice talks on the other side of the phone, yelling, “Luke, are you
hiding from me? And pissing me off, huh?”
“Well...”
There’s no way for Jenny to cut in and the old lady cries over the phone with somewhat threat, “Luke,
here’s the warning. If you don’t bring to me your girlfriend, I’ll refuse to eat. No food anymore!”
“...”
Those threatening but adorable words are amusing for Jenny.
Telling from the voice, Jenny thinks it is an old lady who talks on the other side of the phone, so she
explains with patience, “Luke is not around the phone. But I have his phone.”
She gets no reply for two seconds.
At the third second, the old lady suddenly says with joy, “You mean he is taking a bath?”
“Ah?” Jenny is embarrassed to hear that.
What a brainstorming!
“Nothing like that. I went shopping yesterday and accidentally took his phone.”
Pharmacy is quite an embarrassing place so Jenny mentions another place, “So I’m on my way to
Diffuse Cafe to exchange our phones.”
“Oh, I see”, replies the old lady.
Hearing that, Luke’s grandma gives some hint to the butler. Mrs. Lu, a 60-something old lady in a tight
piece of blue chi-pao, lives in the Lu Mansion surrounded by mountains and lakes.
The butler has served Mrs. Lu for decades, so he knows her hint well enough. He gets the car
prepared on hearing Diffuse Cafe.
“Sweetie, you two are meant to meet.”
Mrs. Lu says with a smile and her eyes rolling. She asks with love, “I suppose you have met Luke. Has
he left a good impression? Would you like to consider him?”
Jenny is shocked to hear that and says awkwardly, “I’m afraid it’s a mistake. I really just want to get my
phone back.”
“You can have a little chat when you get your phone back! Sweetie, my grandson is excellent. He never
has a random date. He’s loyal to love. Why not try to get along with him?
On hearing the world “love”, the smiling faces of Jessica and Frank appear in front of Jenny, which
badly upsets her.
Jenny suddenly felt upset and replies with calmness, “Sorry, I reach the cafe now.”
She hangs up as she says that.
“Hey!”
The phone beeps on the other side and Mrs. Luke frowns, stares angrily at the old phone, and
complains, “She hangs up on me?”
