Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 763 - 756: Someone’s Investigating You
Falling in love must be one of the most ti-consuming things in this world.
The two of them lounged from the living room on the first floor to the sofa on the second, spending the entire morning doing nothing serious, just indulging in sweet nothings.
Lu Shouyue was bolder than ever, almost ready to have his way with Lin Wanwan right then and there.
If it weren’t dayti, Lin Wanwan probably wouldn’t be able to keep her last bit of innocence.
In the blur of emotions and reason, Lin Wanwan was coaxed by Lu Shouyue into signing a docunt. When she ca to her senses, she realized it was the property agreent for the shooting gallery and hotel in Yongcheng.
Compared to a gift, a sale leaves fewer problems.
Lu Shouyue finally gave away one of his cherished engagent gifts. When he wanted Lin Wanwan to sign the diamond mine transfer docunt, she pulled back her hand.
Lu Shouyue wasn’t disappointed, instead pulling her close and whispering, "Darling, once you take my engagent gift, you’re my wife."
He was still subtly shifting Lin Wanwan’s aversion to marriage, using the thod of boiling a frog in warm water.
Lin Wanwan grumbled, "How am I suddenly your wife?"
Lu Shouyue: "Call hubby, let’s hear it."
"No way!"
"Just once."
"No way!"
"Will you call or not?" Lu Shouyue reached out to tickle her, but Lin Wanwan deftly blocked his hand and slipped away.
However, she hadn’t run far before Lu Shouyue caught up with her from behind, wrapped her in his arms, and pushed her onto the sofa for more playful banter.
At lunch, they t with Lin Wanwan’s senior master and Master Liang’s son for a simple al at Ti Hotel.
Lin Wanwan took the opportunity to give them two engagent banquet invitations, naturally sparking a round of congratulations.
It was then that Lu Shouyue realized Lin Wanwan had been keeping the invitations in her bag without inviting anyone yet.
But due to a new discovery after getting drunk last night, he was now okay with it.
On the way back to Yongcheng, Lu Shouyue suddenly received a phone call. Lin Wanwan was close enough to hear bits and pieces from his phone.
She wouldn’t have intentionally listened, except she happened to hear her own na ntioned.
When Lu Shouyue finished the call, Lin Wanwan directly asked, "Who was that? I heard my na ntioned."
"Wanwan, did you run into an aggressive dog again last ti? You never ntioned it to ."
Lu Shouyue casually placed his hand on the back of Lin Wanwan’s neck, gently massaging it, as if kneading.
Lin Wanwan felt her bones go weak, Lu Shouyue’s warm palm on her neck tingling like an electric shock, both comfortable and ticklish.
"Mmm..." Lin Wanwan couldn’t help but murmur, then, realizing the bodyguards were driving upfront, gently took his hand down, gradually regaining her senses, saying, "It’s no big deal, nothing worth ntioning."
Lu Shouyue lightly pinched her hand, saying, "When it cos to you, size doesn’t matter."
Lin Wanwan tilted her head, asking, "What’s up, was that call about this?"
Lu Shouyue’s face remained unchanged as he nonchalantly said, "A friend told soone was investigating your information, related to dog fights."
Lin Wanwan’s mouth slightly opened: "Investigating ? People are so brazen nowadays?"
The person let his dog harm others, yet he didn’t get exposed or punished. Instead, he wanted to cause her trouble. Unbelievable.
However, Lin Wanwan was unfazed. That day she had casually observed and noticed his frivolous, weak deanor, just a gilded butterfly inside and out. Was she worried he’d cause her trouble?
Quite frankly, Lin Wanwan could suppress him with one hand.
Lin Wanwan casually recounted the incident to Lu Shouyue, whose lips curled up, smiling, "Wanwan, you really are a community-minded citizen."
The sunlight filtered through the trees outside the car window, casting dappled shadows on Lu Shouyue’s left side, making his expression sowhat indescribable.
Lin Wanwan couldn’t tell if he was complinting her or being sarcastic.
So, she huffed and asked, "What’s that butterfly up to anyway? Does he want to extort compensation from ? There’s no need for to compensate in such cases."
Lu Shouyue said placidly, "He’s looking for trouble."
Lin Wanwan couldn’t help but look up into Lu Shouyue’s eyes, hesitating to speak.
Lu Shouyue smiled leisurely, saying, "What’s wrong, is there sothing you can’t tell ? You’re always skilled at teasing , aren’t you?"
Lin Wanwan pouted, "No, I’m not!"
After a pause, she added, "You don’t have to do anything. I can handle this, let him co at , it’s a small matter."
Lu Shouyue chuckled softly, saying, "Yes, our Wanwan is so capable."
"Are you laughing at ?"
"No, I’m being sincere."
"Hmph, you’re definitely laughing at !"
The two childish people began yet another round of debates.
By the ti they reached Yongcheng, it was already evening, and the two went directly to Jie Yuting’s private restaurant for dinner.
Since returning to Mao County, Lin Wanwan had resud supplying Jie Yuting, who now had no choice but to accept her unannounced visits.
While eating fish, Lin Wanwan suddenly thought of sothing: "I have so excellent Golden Cod Fish Roe, I’ll give it to you later so you can take it to your grandma. Oh, and so of my homade herbal pastes, take them as well."
Lu Shouyue chuckled softly, his eyes twinkling: "None for ? I need so nourishnt too."
Lin Wanwan didn’t know what he was thinking, and with a red face, she glared at Lu Shouyue: "Hmph."
Lu Shouyue gave Lin Wanwan a aningful look, leaning close to whisper in her ear, "Wanwan, keep your thoughts pure."
Lin Wanwan bit her little sharp teeth, feeling itchy; if they weren’t in the restaurant, she’d definitely bite him.
"You’re the one with impure thoughts, always ssing around."
Lu Shouyue raised an eyebrow, "I haven’t ssed around with you yet."
"It doesn’t have to be like that to count as ssing around!" Lin Wanwan blurted out.
"Hmm." Lu Shouyue nodded slightly, his gaze falling on his own slender, well-defined fingers like those in a comic.
Lin Wanwan followed his gaze and asked angrily, "Why are you looking at your hand?"
Lu Shouyue looked up, smiling gently, "Is Wanwan a little housekeeper? Can’t even look at my hand?"
"Hmph." Unable to find the words, Lin Wanwan could only huff.
Taking advantage yet feigning ignorance, Lu Shouyue continued teasing her, "Darling, thanks for the reminder, wonderful mories are surfacing."
Lin Wanwan’s face reddened further, "Hurry up and eat, you annoying fool~"
"Wanna co to my place tonight?"
"No! I’m busy!"
"Alright then." Lu Shouyue was prepared for this, responding halfheartedly.
Then using the serving chopsticks, he naturally peeled a shrimp and placed it in Lin Wanwan’s bowl.
Lin Wanwan found nothing unusual about it, as scenes like this happened every ti they ate, both had grown accustod to it.
After dinner, Lin Wanwan didn’t ask Lu Shouyue for a ride back, instead saying goodbye at the restaurant door and driving her own car ho.
If she rode in Lu Shouyue’s car and let him take her ho, she felt it would be tough to part ways again for a while, so she chose not to.
She had to hurry back in ti to the Great Tang, where she could take a nap; dawn was breaking there.
