"Hmm?"
The rose in front of her was delicate and alluring, with water droplets sprinkled on it to maintain its form.
Very beautiful, very nice to look at.
Lu Xing had already removed all the thorns from the rose stem, leaving only the beautiful flower.
Wen Lingxiu stared at the rose in a daze, then suddenly smiled.
No matter what.
No matter how many clients Lu Xing had...
None of it was of his own free will.
He was just a pure, innocent, and responsible child.
And at this moment.
Lu Xing was being good to her, and that was enough.
In the limited time they had, she wanted to create more memories with Lu Xing.
At least in the future, if Lu Xing could occasionally think of her, he would say that Wen Lingxiu was a good person.
That would be very good.
She had always been a restrained person.
When the contract ended, even if she was a little reluctant, she would not regret it.
Mm.
It must be so.
After deciding to live every day as if it were the last...
Wen Lingxiu suddenly felt that the shackles that had been binding her had disappeared.
She had been suppressing herself for too long.
Her family was wiped out in one day. The company and Nannan were like two great mountains, pressing heavily on her shoulders.
She had no time, nor any thought to deal with those romantic matters.
Until she met Lu Xing.
Lu Xing was like a gift from heaven, helping her through the most difficult times and taking good care of Nannan.
And that night.
Knowing that Lu Xing was sleeping beside her, she had a rare good night's sleep.
Thinking of this, Wen Lingxiu gently held Lu Xing's wrist, lowered her head, and looked up, saying with a soft, charming smile.
"Help me put it on?"
With the contract as a time limit...
She would secretly indulge the feelings she had suppressed for so long, and pour all her highly concentrated emotions onto Lu Xing.
She would be good to Lu Xing. If anyone was to lose out, it would be her. Lu Xing would not lose out.
Lu Xing's wrist was grabbed, and he was startled.
Not right!
Today's Auntie Wen is not right!
Auntie Wen was dressed very differently from before.
If the previous Auntie Wen had a gentle style of a good wife and mother, today she had added a touch of charm to this style.
She was wearing a light purple dress, her long hair loosely tied up at the back of her head, with a few strands of curly hair falling by her ears. Two white pearls were on her jade-like earlobes.
Purple really has a lot of charm.
"Of course!"
Obeying the client's opinion is the professional quality of a professional simp.
Lu Xing carefully broke off a bit of the rose stem and slowly inserted the flower into Auntie Wen's thick hair.
The person is more delicate than the flower.
Damn it, so good-looking. Holy f*ck!
So jealous!
Click.
Lu Xing took out the Polaroid again.
He handed the photo to Auntie Wen and said proudly.
"I've specially practiced. Plus, the model is also beautiful. The final product is definitely divine!"
Wen Lingxiu held the photo and smiled softly, giving Lu Xing a playful glare.
"So amazing, huh?"
In the photo.
The rose in her hair added a touch of charm to Wen Lingxiu's gentle temperament.
Usually, Wen Lingxiu was like an extremely proper married woman. Today, she was like a widow trying to find a second spring.
Mm.
It has that flavor.
Wen Lingxiu very carefully put the photo away. After thinking for a moment, she found a pen and paper from the armrest box.
She wrote a few words with a swish, swish, swish, and then handed it to Lu Xing.
"You gave me a gift, and I like it very much. So I also have to prepare a gift for you."
Hmm?
Lu Xing looked at the paper handed to him and took it.
On it was Wen Lingxiu's neat and elegant handwriting. The content was...
"In the future, if you encounter any problems, just come to me. As long as I can help, I will definitely help you solve it."
This was a promise from Wen Lingxiu, something that countless bosses kneeling at her door could not get.
Lu Xing felt that Wen Lingxiu was indeed someone who had been in the business world.
This was not a promise at all. This was a "regret coupon" for re-establishing contact.
It was a way out that Auntie Wen had left for herself.
Perhaps Auntie Wen herself was not sure if she would regret it, so she wrote this.
As long as Lu Xing encountered difficulties and came to Auntie Wen...
If Auntie Wen still had feelings for him, she could take the opportunity to continue the transaction.
If Auntie Wen had no feelings for him, she could just help him as a casual favor.
Lu Xing thought.
Is this the instinct of a business person, who is ingrained with the habit of leaving a way out?
Learned another trick!
Lu Xing looked at Auntie Wen's charming face, pushed the paper back, and said with a smile.
"Then if I want a hundred million from CEO Wen, will CEO Wen also give it to me? I'm not that thick-skinned."
"How about CEO Wen makes me a plate of stir-fried pork? That's the gift I want!"
Wen Lingxiu also smiled and stuffed the paper back into Lu Xing's hand.
"If you have any ideas for your own business, as long as I see the plan is feasible, I can invest two hundred million in you."
Lu Xing was a little troubled. "Then what if I lose it all?"
Wen Lingxiu ruffled Lu Xing's head and said cheerfully.
"If you lose it, you lose it. No one is an ever-victorious general."
Hiss.
A hundred million, and she says if you lose it, you lose it?
Damn it.
Could this Wen Lingxiu be richer than Song Junzhu?
Lu Xing silently shed tears in his heart.
You stinking rich second-generations, I'm really getting angry!
...
When getting out of the car, before Lu Xing could react, Wen Lingxiu had already walked to the passenger side in her high heels as if walking on flat ground and opened the door for him.
Lu Xing: ???
Huh?
Has Auntie Wen really gone crazy?
Even if she investigated his background and pitied him, she didn't have to take care of him like a son, right?
Lu Xing's shock reached its peak when Wen Lingxiu naturally took his hand!
Not right.
Really not right!
Director, you gave me the wrong script. It's not like this!
Auntie Wen might feel guilty, but why would she express her guilt in this way?
Why is she scratching his palm?
Why is she intertwining their fingers?
Why is she leaning on his arm like she has no bones!
Didn't she realize she was pressing a tactical nuke against him?!
Lu Xing was dumbfounded.
His usually accurate deduction mechanism was frantically sounding the alarm in his mind.
System bug!
System bug!
System bug!
Wen Lingxiu tightened her arms around his and leaned gently on Lu Xing's shoulder, saying softly.
"Besides stir-fried pork, what else do you want to eat tonight?"
...
