After dinner, the servants cleared the dishes, and Liang Youquan had written some characters for Nanxi to check. Nanxi followed Liang Youquan to the study, while Lu Yinchu stayed in the living room talking to Grandmother.
The study room door was left open, allowing Nanxi to hear the two of them. This made her nervous.
She was mainly worried that Lu Yinchu would expose her shortcomings to grandmother, like her sleeping in too late in the morning or her not cooking. â_â
Fortunately, Lu Yinchu didnât say anything, and when grandmother asked, he only picked out the good things to share⦠Nanxi was very satisfied. She felt that Lu Yinchu did have some conscience. He hadnât wasted all her dotingâ(â¯^â°)â®.
After a little chat, the grandmother got tired. Lu Yinchu and the servant took her for a nap. Liang Youquan also let Nanxi go. Lu Yinchu took Nanxi back to their room.
The rain outside was still falling.
âI donât want to take a nap, Lu Yinchu, do you want to?â Nanxi asked.
Lu Yinchu shook his head, reached for a cigarette box, and tried to light a cigarette, Nanxi quickly stopped him, âEven if youâre not sleeping, you canât smoke!â
Lu Yinchu smiled devilishly, put the cigarette back in the pocket, âIf weâre not napping and not smoking, we have to find something to do!â As he said that, he scooped Nanxi into his arms, his warm breath brushed against Nanxiâs face, he began to peck her cheeks.
He flirtatiously added: âYou were gazing at me so hungrily at the dinner table. Should I do something nice to satisfy you now, hm?â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
She quickly pushed him away, saying, âStop it, I have something to tell you! Be serious!â
âMm.â While continuing to explore her body, Lu Yinchu let out a low, husky âGo ahead, I wonât stop you.â
ââ¦Is this what you call ânot stopping meâ?â
Exasperated, Nanxi yelled, âLu Yinchu!!!â
It worked. The man finally looked at her. His dark eyes were deep and rich, a flicker of softness glimmered on his handsome face, leaving Nanxi feeling slightly light-headed.
âLu Yinchu, Iâ¦â
âLetâs talk about it laterâ¦â
âWhy later? I want to talk now!â
âLater⦠â The man bit his lip, gently grabbing her soft hand and moving it to his lower abdomen, his voice trembling slightly, âHelp me out first, Iâ¦am ready.â
ââ¦â Nanxi.
â¦îîîîîî
Twenty minutes later, in the bathroom.
A lively scene was underway!
Nanxiâs hand clung to Lu Yinchuâs shoulder, her body felt utterly drained.
âAre you done yet?â She asked in a low voice, almost drowned out by the sounds of running water.
ââ¦Almost!â Lu Yinchu panted softly, kissing her while replying in a low voice.
â¦
â¦
More than forty minutes later.
Nanxi, who lay on the sofa too tired to move, glared at the man sitting elegantly across the room. It just wasnât fair!
Clearly, he had done most of the work, yet she was the one who ended up exhausted!
Itâs not fair!
And what was with that âalmostâ ?! She had been tortured for nearly half an hour?!
Looking at the impossibly elegant and magnificent man, it was hard to reconcile him with the man who had done such âbeastly thingsâ to her earlier!
Nanxi gritted her teeth: For the sake of business, bear with it!!!
âLu Yinchu, I have something to tell you!â
The man buttoned up the last button on his shirt, turned his head to look at her, his eyes still warm and charming, âGo ahead!â
Nanxi adjusted her breath, âWell, before we get to business, I want to formally and sincerely thank youâ¦â
âHm?â Lu Yinchu was somewhat puzzled.
âYes, like this. Four years ago, when I came to H City and met my grandmother and uncle, I was really happy. As an orphan, I acquired family once again. So, I had to cherish them; cherish my uncle, cherish my grandmother, cherish my cousin!â
âI told myself in my heart, âGu Nanxi, you have to fulfil the filial duties your mother could not fulfil, and gradually compensate for her regrets about the family.â Unfortunately, my abilities were limited. I could do very little and could offer very little to my grandmother and uncle until I met you!â
Nanxi said, âLu Yinchu, I am really grateful to you. I am grateful that you appeared in my life, helped me take care of my family, and did everything I could not do before⦠Like arranging for my grandmother and uncle to live in such a good place, making sure my aged grandmother received excellent care in her old age. Today, you accompanied me to see my grandmother and even went far to West Street to buy apple pastries my grandmother loves. All these made her very happy⦠Iâm deeply moved, and I profoundly thank you!â
âHmm!â His face was calm, and he replied lightly, âNow that you have expressed your gratitude, letâs get to business!â
âCough! Whatâs the hurryâ¦â Nanxi blinked, âActually, itâs about my cousin!â
ââ¦â
âLu Yinchu, as you know, some time ago, my grandmother and uncle were heartbroken over Chen Juncaiâs incident. Now they have somewhat settled down, their biggest wish is to settle my cousinâs marriage. She is 27 this year. Look, now she is with Mr Mo. They have known each other for 10 years and they have a solid relationship. There will be no more twists and turns in the future. So, I thinkâ¦â
âYou think what?â
âI think why donât we let them get engaged now? This way, my grandmother would be at ease, my uncle would feel relieved. Both would be very happy. No, my grandmother would be incredibly happy. If she is happy, our whole family would be happy. What a good idea, donât you thinkâ¦â
âHmm!â Lu Yinchu nodded, âItâs indeed a good idea!â
A delight surged in Nanxiâs heart, âYou also think itâs good, right? I knew itâ¦â
âButâ¦â Lu Yinchu smirked, âBut what does this have to do with me?â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
She coughed lightly, âHow can it not be related? Arenât you a close friend and superior to Mr Mo? How can you not care about something that concerns his happiness? Also, you donât have to put in much effort. With your high IQ and emotional intelligence, just like the last time in Japan, just help a little bit, and Mr Mo and my cousin will surely be together. So Lu Yinchu, donât be so petty and help outâ¦â
ââ¦â Lu Yinchu furrowed his brows, âHave I ever been petty?â
âNo!â Nanxi hastily shook her head to deny, âYouâre not petty, youâre great, youâre a good person. So Lu Yinchu, please help out. Do it for me, for our future little Zuozuo, Lu Yinchu~~~ Honey~~~â
The sweet voice of the little woman made the manâs nerves go numb. So Lu Yinchu found out that many things in this world, including people, have their adversaries!
This woman named Gu Nanxi is his destined nemesis!
Whatever she wants, likes, is willing to, he is ready to do it willingly. He, matured at the age of 32, has broken so many principles for her, hadnât he?
He lost count!
â¦îîîîîîîîî
Nanxi thought this time Lu Yinchu would scheme secretly again, planning for a long time, setting a âsmall trapâ for Mo Yan to fall into, and then arrange a romantic proposal feast!
But in realityâ¦
That day, Lu Yinchu specially called Mo Yan to pick them up. On the way home, Lu Yinchu suddenly coughed lightly and said to Mo Yan, who was in front of him, âMo Yan, Qiaoqiao will inevitably meet Alen at the competition in Korea. Are you worried?â
Mo Yan: ââ¦â
Lu Yinchu: âIf you want to tie a woman down, itâs actually simple. Iâll give you a piece of advice. When Qiaoqiao returns from Korea, take her to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get your marriage certificate!â
Mo Yan: ââ¦â
Nanxi sitting beside: ââ¦(âoâ)!!!â
