The rich are all alike; every poor person is poor in their own way.
At this moment.
This sentence was a true reflection of Lu Xing.
After seeing the lineup of luxury cars in Song Junzhu's garage, he felt dazed, as if he had returned to Wen Lingxiu's home.
Just as Lu Xing chose what color underwear to wear every morning...
Song Junzhu also fell into a dilemma, not knowing which color car to choose.
After a moment of thought, she looked at Lu Xing.
"Which car looks good to you?"
Lu Xing fell silent.
He felt like he had heard this sentence from Wen Lingxiu's mouth before, just not with the same domineering tone as Song Junzhu's.
Lu Xing thought for a moment. It's better to be low-key.
He didn't want to be caught by those rude street photographers and then be seen by his other clients.
The probability of this situation is very small, but it's definitely not zero!
And so.
Lu Xing said with an awkward and uneasy air.
"I don't really know these car brands, but wouldn't it be better to drive a more low-key car?"
"We're just going out to have fun. Won't we be surrounded if we drive a car that's too expensive?"
Song Junzhu felt that what Lu Xing said made sense, so she walked towards a Range Rover.
Lu Xing: ???
Song Junzhu explained seriously, "This car is too ugly. I've hardly ever driven it."
Lu Xing: !!!
Damn it.
I've been flexed on again!
Facts have proven...
One cannot simultaneously possess a Range Rover and low self-esteem!
Lu Xing's long-standing hunchback was finally cured by the Range Rover.
Song Junzhu drove the car, arranged everything, and said.
"We'll go shopping for a while, and then go for a meal after we're done shopping."
The "meal" she was talking about was definitely not just a simple meal.
It was the kind where you eat at some high-end restaurant while someone next to you is fiddling with, oh no, playing the violin.
The employment prospects for art students are really wide!
Lu Xing thought for a moment.
Before, he had to go to the Haicheng Grand Theater to listen to opera on Sunday nights.
But last week, Chi Yueshan had ended this relationship with him, so his Sunday nights were now free.
Anyway, Song Junzhu is going abroad soon. It doesn't matter if I accompany her.
Who made her his most generous client? This counts as extra service!
Lu Xing showed a professional smile.
"Okay, no problem. I'm very happy that Professor Song is taking me out to play."
The emotional value must be maxed out!
She liked this kind of obedient routine.
Song Junzhu felt comfortable and started the car, leaving the villa.
...
Many people drive Range Rovers.
But beautiful women who drive Range Rovers are rare.
From the moment they left until now, countless cars had flashed their high beams at them.
While waiting at a red light, the car next to them even rolled down its window to hit on Song Junzhu.
Regarding this, before Lu Xing could even speak, Song Junzhu directly opened her mouth and cursed.
Watching the fifth car owner being cursed away, Lu Xing couldn't help but clap his hands and sigh.
"Professor Song, it's a real pity you don't go into debating."
Song Junzhu was praised, a smile in her eyes.
"I was the captain of the school debate team when I was in university. I won the national debate championship."
(⊙o⊙) Wow!
Awesome!
As a professional simp's professional quality, when a client takes the initiative to say this kind of thing, there is only one purpose—
Ask for praise!
And so.
Lu Xing immediately launched into a smooth "like, praise and congratulate" combo, making the corners of Song Junzhu's lips curve upward in an irrepressible smile.
"Hey, Professor Song, why did you turn back?"
Song Junzhu found a place to park and said with confusion.
"Weren't you just looking over there from the window?"
After getting out of the car, Song Junzhu looked from a distance.
"It seems to be a flower and bird market. There should be some kind of competition going on. If you like it, we can go take a look."
Lu Xing: ???
He had just looked over there a few more times because there were a lot of people. How did Song Junzhu notice?
Wasn't Song Junzhu driving seriously the whole time?
Could it be that she had been paying attention to him all along?
Ew—
Lu Xing shivered. Alright, the biggest taboo for a professional simp is to be self-sentimental.
He had learned his lesson before.
Perhaps he had already been swayed by the client's flirting.
But from the client's perspective, it was just a whim to tease a little pet.
Exchanging money for services, where is there any genuine feeling?
After stabilizing his Dao heart, Lu Xing put on a professional smile.
"Then let's go take a look. Are your shoes convenient, Professor Song?"
Song Junzhu was tall and beautiful.
Today, she was wearing a trench coat with a long black dress underneath, paired with a pair of thin high heels.
"You can stick this on."
Lu Xing took out an anti-chafe pad from his pocket.
After Auntie Wen's foot was chafed last time, he had bought some to keep as a spare.
Song Junzhu looked at the anti-chafe pad in Lu Xing's hand with surprise, her heart filled with emotion.
He loves me so much.
He can even consider such small details!
On the street, even if Lu Xing was willing to take off Song Junzhu's shoes, Song Junzhu herself wouldn't agree.
And so–
Although Song Junzhu refused Lu Xing's suggestion, she still put the anti-chafe pad in her trench coat pocket.
The two of them walked to the flower and bird market.
Only then did they discover that there was some kind of bird competition being held here, comparing whose bird was bigger.
Song Junzhu rarely visited places like this, so she couldn't help but feel a little curious, glancing at a goldfish one moment and a potted flower the next.
Only at this moment did she show a hint of a little girl's innocence and charm.
"Lu Xing."
No answer came back.
"Lu Xing?"
Song Junzhu turned her head and met Lu Xing's clear eyes.
Looking at the hand Lu Xing was hiding behind his back, she instantly understood.
He really does love me.
He's probably going to give me some roses. Countless people have given her this kind of impractical thing, and they have all been rejected.
Whatever.
Since it's from Lu Xing, she doesn't want this little brat to be sad.
"Are you giving me something?"
She was already prepared to show a surprised expression when she saw a bunch of roses.
Little brat, you really are the first!
Lu Xing nodded solemnly, a hint of greenness on his face.
"This is for you."
The next second.
A pot of green bamboo appeared in Lu Xing's hand.
The prepared smile on Song Junzhu's face suddenly froze. Why wasn't it roses?!
Lu Xing said with some embarrassment.
"Song Junzhu."
(TL: A pun. "送君竹" (sòng jūn zhú) means "to give you bamboo," which sounds identical to her name, 宋君竹 (Sòng Jūnzhú).)
Song Junzhu was silent at first, then a blush slowly crept up her exquisite, fair cheeks.
Only when her cheeks were so hot that she could feel it herself did she secretly take a deep breath to suppress the pinkness!
This was the first time Song Junzhu had received this kind of potted plant. For a moment, she was at a loss.
Song Junzhu, to give you bamboo.
Lu Xing looked at Song Junzhu's expression and instantly felt that the gift he had given was simply too suitable!
After all, they had known each other for quite some time, so a farewell gift was definitely in order.
I'll give you a pot of bamboo. You can go abroad with peace of mind. Bye-bye now!
Awesome!
As a professional simp, keeping the client in a happy mood is a basic quality.
Lu Xing had coaxed the client, and he was extremely satisfied in his heart.
He was just about to say something when he suddenly saw a familiar figure appear behind Song Junzhu.
Lu Xing's pupils instantly dilated.
Holy f*ck!
Why is Chi Yueshan here!
