119: Chapter 114: Matched with Him, Unfair for Him _2 119: Chapter 114: Matched with Him, Unfair for Him _2 âOh.â Nanxi believed blankly and pushed open the passenger door to get into the car.
This time, surprisingly, no servant came to greet them because Lu Yinchu was personally opening the gateâ¦
Nanxi was even more surprised and approached him, âMr.
Lu, is thereâ¦
no one inside?â
Lu Yinchu did not look back.
The sound of the lock turning was heard, and he pushed half of the door open before answering, âLast time, due to your illness, I briefly hired two people to take care of itâ¦â
He paused and then added, âIf I remember correctly, I told you that I seldom come back hereâ¦â
So itâs not necessary to hire maids to waste money?
Is this what he means?
Nanxi understood!
She also appreciated his thoughtfulness that day, even though she did not end up stayingâ¦
Nanxi lowered her head, looking at the manâs heel, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
The man glanced at her without speaking, picked up his feet, and went inside.
Nanxi followedâ¦
The yard was planted with many flowers, plants, and trees, which reminded Nanxi of everything she had seen a few days ago at Li Xiangchenâs residence with Li Weihuan!
Of course, the houses were vastly different.
Lu Yinchuâs was very refined; the entire architectural structure was pure white, mixed with a British style with a touch of classic.
It looked neat and simple but still extravagantly luxurious, aligning with Lu Yinchuâs taste.
âOh yes, be careful!â Lu Yinchu turned his head and said to her, a faint smile evident in his dark eyes.
Nanxi quickly averted her gaze and nodded.
But in fact, she hadnât quite figured out the caution he was implyingâ¦
It didnât take long for her to understandâ¦
The living room was simply furnished.
After passing through the entrance, there was a carpet with a bit of vintage design.
The rest of the decorations were rather simple, mainly in black, white, and grey, indicating high taste.
Lu Yinchu handed Nanxi a pair of womenâs slippers.
Nanxi hesitated, and Lu Yinchu said, âI bought them last time thinking you would come over!â
âOh!â Nanxi reluctantly put them on, feeling even more embarrassed!
She hadnât expected that Lu Yinchu had put in so much effort to accommodate her stayâ¦
Lu Yinchu said, âHang out in the living room for a while, Iâll go make some tea!â
After speaking, he took off his coat and put it on a rack at the entrance, and loosened his collar.
His sleeves were also undoneâ¦
Nanxi noticed this shirt seemed like the one she had helped him purchaseâ¦
Of course, she didnât remember it clearly as she was too focused on the price and randomly picked it outâ¦
He had no idea that less than ten minutes after they left, Mo Yan drove to that store, and according to someoneâs size, bought all the shirts of that styleâ¦
After Lu Yinchu left, Nanxi didnât dare to wander around, so she sat obediently in the living room.
Finding it rather boring, she turned on the television.
A historical drama was playing on TV, one that gets re-aired every summer.
Nanxi wasnât interested and changed the channel.
It just so happened that a rerun of an entertainment program was on, and among the guests, there was one that Nanxi found very familiarâ¦
Nanxi frowned, pondering for a long time until it dawned on her: wasnât this the actress who attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony with Lu Yinchu that day?
My goodness, just by having a slight connection with Lu Yinchu, her exposure rate had gone through the roof.
Indeed, Lu Yinchu was truly a goldmineâ¦
Nanxi watched the actress, dressed in a peacock green gown, gracefully sitting on the mahogany couch.
The next segment involved selecting audience questions for the actress.
Whether she responded or not depended on the actressâs speaking skills.
The first question from a man was rather unimpressive, asking when she had her first loveâ¦
Nanxi thought, how does it concern you when her first love began?
Moreover, it was such an old, trivial incident.
Thereâs no significance in talking about itâ¦
Then, the actress responded, âI donât quite remember, probably when I was about four or five years oldâ¦â
Nanxi: ââ¦â Ahem, so precocious!
After the actress stated that when she was a child, she was so cute that it caused the little boys in the neighborhood to fantasize, the next person asked a question â âWhat is your ideal man like?
Have you met him in real life?â
The actress gave a shy smile, and the host assisted by saying, âLast time, I seem to have heard Miss Lisa expressing her appreciation for the CEO of KING Group, Mr.
Lu Yinchu.
Is he your ideal man?â
The audience went into an uproar.
Once it quieted down, the actress said, âMr.
Lu, indeed, is my ideal man!
I think there are few women in the world who are capable of matching him!â
After finishing, she paused, a perfect and skillful pause.
The audience held their breath.
The actress then laughed, looking as lovely as a peach blossom, and said, ââ¦The fact is, Iâm trying my best!â
The audience roared, followed by applause, and the host expressed his blessings.
His words made it seem as if this actress had a serious relationship with Lu Yinchu!
Nanxi turned a bit upset on behalf of Lu Yinchu and the woman in his heart!
Why are there always people in this world who delight in stirring up trouble, and these girls, all with such thick skins, so brazenly doing this right in front of a national audienceâ¦
Nanxi clenched her hand in frustration, grabbing something fluffy next to her.
She thought it was a special material cushion and squeezed it hard again.
Thenâ¦
âMeowâââ
While a desperate cry arose, and Nanxi was still in a daze.
By the time she reacted, her hand had already been scratched by sharp âweaponâ, causing two bloody marksâ¦
âWhat happened?â
Lu Yinchu, who had just finished making tea, came out and saw this.
He quickly approached and saw the âinstigatorâ which had scampered far away.
It was a light gray catâ¦
A catâ¦
Nanxi was dumbfoundedâ¦
âDid it hurt you?â
Suddenly, her arm was grabbed and warm breath brushed against her hand.
Nanxi lifted her head and saw the manâs drooping eyebrows, his long eyelashes covering his jet-black eyes.
His beautiful brows slightly furrowed, his sexy chin was blowing on the scratches on the back of her handâ¦
Nanxi struggled to break free and pulled back her hand, âIâ¦Iâm fine!â
The man didnât force her anymore, turned his head to look at the gray creature not far away, and scolded, âShiyi, why are you so disobedient!â
Shiyi?
Nanxi paused when she heard this nameâ¦
She suddenly remembered that when she was about fourteen years old and living with her parents in Hong Kong, she was an only child, not talkative, and felt quite lonely.
Once her father came home from outside and brought a light gray kitten, the same color as this cat.
Moreover, that cat she used to have was also named Shiyi.
