This was the first ti Song Qiao had taken the initiative to call him out for lunch together.
From the ti they got married until now, it hasn’t been very long, but there were many opportunities.
When he married Song Qiao and brought her ho, it wasn’t without reason.
Mainly because Song Qiao was more well-behaved than other won and also relatively intelligent. She was perfectly suited to be Mrs. Lu.
However, during the ti he spent with this young woman, Lu Jingchen felt that sothing else had developed between them.
Very unfamiliar.
She withdrew her gaze from outside the window, looked at him with a slight smile and answered, "It’s not that I want to accompany you to lunch, but I want you to accompany ."
It seed to be an unprecedented response, and along with the sweet smile on Song Qiao’s face, which appeared extrely well-behaved, it made Lu Jingchen inadvertently stunned.
Lu Jingchen also looked at her, smiled aningfully, and spoke with a low and sowhat sexy voice, seemingly suggestive, "Is that so?"
After speaking, he began to study the nu intently.
Song Qiao watched him studying the nu, tightening her grip on her cup, a dense and unusual feeling began to spread inside her due to Lu Jingchen’s reply. From this angle, one could see the man’s long eyelashes that would make any woman envious and jealous, his straight and perfect nose, and clear features—his handso appearance was irresistible.
She pursed her lips, and only when he turned to the second page of the nu did she speak softly, "I admit, I asked you out today because I have sothing I need."
In front of this man, her experience was too shallow, and it was easy for him to see through her.
She couldn’t fully disguise it.
Lu Jingchen ordered her favorite dishes and also chose one for himself before handing the nu to the server, then lifting his eyes to look at her face, his lips parting slightly, "Tell , what is it that you need my help with?"
His gaze was too intense; although it carried a light smile, perhaps because Song Qiao always knew the way Lu Jingchen was, she now felt sowhat uncomfortable being stared at.
It was as if this man could always peel her layers away, look straight into her heart, and leave no secrets hidden.
So gazes, although not deliberately focused, can exist silently, even carrying an unconcealable and unavoidable aggressiveness.
Lu Jingchen’s gaze at Song Qiao was almost always like this.
Averting her gaze from those seemingly magical eyes, Song Qiao felt slightly less oppressed and looked down at the lemon water in her hands, biting her lip, she finally spoke, "Hua Yi called to say that I should take Qin Zhe and An Ke for an audition..."
Lu Jingchen’s eyebrows slightly raised, still staring at her, "Hmm?"
Song Qiao finally mustered the courage to et his gaze, biting her teeth she voiced the doubt in her heart, "Lu Jingchen, is it because of your help that I have this opportunity?"
Lu Jingchen narrowed his eyes, responding coolly, "Why do you think it’s because of my help?"
"The Hua Yi movie, it’s a collaboration with CK, and it’s going to be one of the most heavily promoted by both of your companies in 2016." Song Qiao’s distinct eyes stared at him, "I accidentally saw your docunts in the study one day, all about that movie and promotional material. Normally, you keep your docunts well-organized, not scattered about; clearly, you intended for to see it. And Jian Xia giving her business card, that must have been arranged by you too, right?"
Her words were usually rhetorical, but now they were spoken with absolute certainty.
Lu Jingchen picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of water. He looked at her clean and flawless face, narrowing his eyes slightly and chuckled softly, "So, are you now moved to continue offering yourself to ?"
He did not deny that these were all his ways of helping Song Qiao in secret, and his tone carried a rarely felt rascally air.
Song Qiao was stunned, taking a while to grasp what Lu Jingchen said. What was a relatively serious conversation seed a bit unusual now.
With a faint blush on her face, she pursed her lips before speaking, "Actually, Lu Jingchen, you don’t need to help secretly; I don’t need your help."
His gaze deepened slightly, staring unblinkingly at her, "It’s not just for you; I am also considering the company’s interests. Qiaoqiao, to put it simply, I just thought that the two newcors under you fit the roles in the movie, that’s why I spoke up. Otherwise, do you think I, as a businessman, would do sothing without any benefit?"
"Lu Jingchen, would it kill you to say a few sweet words occasionally?" Unable to hold back, she blurted out, her gaze now slightly hurt as she looked at the man opposite her.
Song Qiao hardly ever acted coquettishly in front of him, though she lost her temper a few tis, she generally presented herself as very gentle and agreeable.
Seeing Song Qiao’s reaction now made Lu Jingchen feel an impulse to imdiately sit next to her and pull her into his embrace.
Song Qiao did not notice the emotional change in his eyes, as she slightly propped up her chin and fiddled with her cup, her lips slightly pursed bearing a hint of petulance as she blurted out, "At first, I was indeed sowhat moved when I learned you were helping secretly, but now, hearing what you have said, I feel my gratitude was too premature, Lu Jingchen, you are really not very likable."
The truth was too hurtful; she had originally planned to treat him to this al.
