Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Accompanying the President to Climb through the Window Late at Night Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Accompanying the President to Climb through the Window Late at Night Lu Sheng and Lu Jingyan returned to the Lu Mansion after dinner, and it was already 10 p.m.
Black Bean was sleeping in her quilt, and when he heard the door move, he imdiately opened his eyes.
Originally lazy, he now agilely leaped in front of the girl, owing softly.
Black Bean was used to having Lu Sheng rub his head every ti she ca ho, comfortably squinting his eyes and then sticking out his crimson little tongue to lick her palm.
But now, Lu Sheng’s right hand was injured and wrapped in gauze.
Black Bean dared not touch her, as if he was afraid he might accidentally hurt the girl.
His eyes as green as eralds, brimming with grievances, feeling sorry for his owner who was hurt by those annoying humans.
“It’s just a minor injury, it doesn’t hurt.”
With a casual tone, Lu Sheng comforted Black Bean by stroking his fur with her left hand.
The next second, the text ssage notification from her phone rang.
[Have you reached ho?]
It was Li Muchen, his timing perfect as always.
[I’ve reached, just got back to my room.] Lu Sheng contemplated, then added, [This morning on the phone, I said I wanted a kiss as a reward for your good behavior, but surprisingly, there wasn’t even a chance to hold hands today.]
During lunch and the afternoon at the Fu Family, there were always others around; after leaving the Fu Family, Lu Sheng went straight back ho with Lu Jingyan and the others.
Not to ntion getting close to Li Muchen, she didn’t even get a chance to talk to him more today.
[The moon is beautiful tonight.]
Li Muchen suddenly sent such a ssage.
Subconsciously, Lu Sheng replied: [What?]
[I an, I miss you.]
[I’m outside your house, can we et for a bit?]
Li Muchen always remained deep and restrained in front of her.
Lu Sheng didn’t know how long he had been outside the Lu Mansion.
But even though the man had been waiting outside for who knows how long, eager to see her, he only asked if it was convenient for her rather than insisting she co out.
In others’ eyes, Li Muchen always appeared high and mighty, commanding without ire. But in front of her, he always prioritized her feelings.
[My brother is in the living room, I’d have to explain if I go out.]
In the car, Li Muchen’s eyes dimd slightly upon reading Lu Sheng’s text.
It wasn’t convenient for her to co out.
The next instant, he saw the girl send another ssage: [But you could park your car behind the villa.]
[I’m on the first floor; you can co straight into my room through the window. I’ll be waiting by the window.]
Upon reading the ssage, Li Muchen paused.
“How about it, boss? Has the miss arrived ho?”
The driver, Assistant Chen, couldn’t help but rub his sore shoulders, “We’ve been waiting here for an hour.”
“She’s back,” Li Muchen replied.
“So, is the miss coming out to see you?” Assistant Chen, learning that Lu Sheng was back, imdiately asked.
“…She’s not coming out to see ,” Li Muchen looked up, “I’ll go see her.”
Assistant Chen never thought he’d one day follow his boss at 10 p.m. to climb through soone else’s window.
And President Li, the sole heir of Li Group, a top figure in Jiang City in terms of wealth and influence, had to climb through a window just to see the girl he liked.
This was simply…
Assistant Chen felt helpless.
If the miss instructed to climb through a window to enter a room, the boss really went for it.
He had thought his boss keeping a covertly taken photo of the girl’s side face as his phone wallpaper all day long was already love-struck enough, but this was sothing else.
Now, President Li seed like he was sneaking around for a tryst.
Assistant Chen even worried that the Lu family’s backyard had an alarm that would catch them red-handed.
But the concerns of Assistant Chen did not co to pass.
The car circled to the back of the Lu Mansion, and from afar, they could see the girl standing by a window, waving.
Following Li Muchen to the window, Assistant Chen asked in front of Lu Sheng, “President Li, should I wait outside for you, or…”
Li Muchen paused, but Lu Sheng answered for him.
She smiled warmly: “Assistant Chen, you can go back and rest. Co over early tomorrow to pick soone up.”
Does this an President Li is staying over tonight?!
Assistant Chen knew that even if Li Muchen shared a bed with the girl, he wouldn’t do anything to her.
He just found it incredible.
He had been following Li Muchen for many years, everyone envied that Li Muchen was born with a silver spoon, becoming the uncontested superior of the entire Jiang City at a young age.
Only he knew how lonely Li Muchen had been over the years.
At fifteen, his parents died in a car accident, and although he was protected by his mother and miraculously survived, he witnessed the grueso death of his parents.
A teenager facing the huge business empire left by his parents alone, with a cunning uncle coveting everything, the pressure was unimaginable.
Also, because he was born a Heavenly Slaughter Star, people with poor physical constitutions would suffer backlash just by getting close, so for years, he never approached others lightly.
To outsiders, Li Muchen seed expressionless, with an aura that warned strangers to keep away. But what people didn’t know was that his distancing of others was actually his way of avoiding harming them.
Assistant Chen was probably the person who understood Li Muchen the most in this world.
He knew, no matter how privileged and attractive Li Muchen appeared to the outside world, inside he was extrely lonely.
Deep down, he always blad himself for the death of his parents, attributing everything to himself.
Just accustod to enduring, he kept all his emotions hidden, never letting his pain show in front of others.
Even Assistant Chen knew that Li Muchen, at the young age of twenty-five, had already resigned himself to a solitary life.
He felt that soone like him didn’t deserve family, friends—much less love.
However, the appearance of this girl was like a ray of light suddenly illuminating Li Muchen’s dark world.
The girl was intelligent, excellent, brave, and kind-hearted. She could get President Li walking with just two needles, and imdiately noticed the poison in Li Muchen’s pillow.
She was also very low-key and mysterious, such as the ti at the Fu family when a doctor nad Gao He knelt down and called her ‘Master Uncle’, shocking Assistant Chen.
Moreover, she was bold in front of Li Muchen, completely uninhibited. Not only was she unaffected by President Li’s Evil Qi, but she always took the initiative to get close.
It was the first ti soone like this appeared around President Li.
As if they were born to match, mutually attracting each other.
This kind of soulful connection, regardless of how and when the two t, felt just right, as if it was ant to be.
This amazed Assistant Chen.
As he approached the car, Assistant Chen couldn’t help but look back.
Li Muchen had already entered the room.
The girl buried herself entirely into his arms, her slender arms wrapped around his lean waist, seemingly slling his scent.
The man tightened his arms and circled the girl in his embrace firmly, bending his head to gently kiss the girl’s hair, the tenderness and affection in his eyes almost spilling out.
The bright moonlight shone by the window.
Assistant Chen looked up, and indeed, the moon was quite beautiful tonight.
