I Only Care About Making Money And Not Love. I'm The Best Professional Simp! Chapter 23 - I Must Be Sick

Lu Xing felt that he must be sick.

He would feel uneasy in Wen Lingxiu's gentle embrace, but upon learning that Wen Lingxiu had actually been on guard against him for the past two years...

Lu Xing actually felt a strange sense of relief!

"I knew it. For a mont there, I thought I had found a rich person who was just... normal."

Lu Xing walked into the kitchen and saw two black earbuds on the countertop, which he had never seen before.

"So every ti I was alone with Nannan, you were listening in with earbuds."

"Not bad, not bad. A good mother."

Just now, when Wen Lingxiu heard him asking about the watch through the earbuds, she must have been extrely panicked, so she didn't even care that the dish in the pot was only half-cooked and rushed to the playroom to stop him from asking further.

Lu Xing turned on the stove and the range hood, finished cooking the dish, and a professional smile appeared on his lips.

"Objectively, I understand you. After all, I'm not Nannan's biological father."

"Subjectively..."

Lu Xing took a deep breath and looked down at the few oil stains that had splattered on his white shirt.

"Subjectively, the feeling of not being trusted is indeed a bit awful."

Whatever, who cares about her!

Lu Xing was only emo for three seconds before it was gone.

Sad?

How much is sadness worth?

But there were also benefits.

After all, perhaps out of guilt, Wen Lingxiu might give him a little extra money when they settled the final paynt.

And there was another benefit.

When he finally left, he would have even fewer attachnts.

...

In the playroom

Wen Lingxiu stared at Nannan's watch, a hint of regret in her eyes.

Lu Xing wasn't Nannan's biological father. Of course, she wouldn't be at ease with him.

When she decided to hire Lu Xing, this watch had already been prepared, and not just this watch.

If Lu Xing was a bit more discerning, he would have discovered...

Although this villa had no nanny, every corner, except for the bathrooms, was filled with caras.

No blind spots whatsoever!

If Lu Xing made any unusual moves, he would be imdiately thrown out of the villa by the bodyguards!

A single mother with an orphan daughter, of course, she had to be more prepared.

But Wen Lingxiu had never expected that in the past two years, Lu Xing had made no unusual moves at all. He was so well-behaved that...

So well-behaved that she even suspected Lu Xing might like n.

Over ti, Wen Lingxiu had actually let down her guard against Lu Xing in her heart and didn't care about this matter anymore.

But she never expected...

That such a huge landmine would explode under these circumstances, blowing Wen Lingxiu into a montary panic!

"Mommy? Did Nannan say sothing wrong?"

Nannan snuggled into Wen Lingxiu's embrace, a little uneasy.

Wen Lingxiu slowly and gently patted Nannan's back and said softly.

"Nannan baby didn't say anything wrong. This watch is uncomfortable to wear. We won't wear it anymore when we're with Daddy in the future."

After two years of testing, Lu Xing's performance had far exceeded her expectations.

Wen Lingxiu thought, perhaps it was ti for her to let go of her prejudice and acknowledge Lu Xing's efforts?

But now there was a problem—

What expression should she use to face Lu Xing in a little while?

Even though she told herself to trust Lu Xing from now on, at this mont, she didn't know how to face him.

Just then.

Knock, knock, knock.

A knock on the door.

Lu Xing was holding a spatula, as if nothing had happened just now, and said with a brilliant smile.

"Ti to eat! Little ones have to eat obediently to grow tall!"

One of the professional qualities of a professional simp—always give the client a way out.

After all, the one who pays is the boss!

If you've taken the money, don't be a whore who still wants a monunt to her chastity.

Wen Lingxiu looked at Lu Xing's warm smile and suddenly thought with a glimr of hope.

A one-in-a-thousand chance, maybe Lu Xing didn't realize there was a problem with the watch?

"Yay! Nannan is going to eat a whole bowl of rice today!"

Nannan's two short legs dangled as she ran towards Lu Xing.

Lu Xing scooped her up and said with a smile, "So amazing! Nannan is the most obedient little baby!"

Nannan counted on her fingers and said innocently.

"Then Mommy is the second most obedient little baby!"

Lu Xing let out a light laugh, held the playroom doorknob, and said to Wen Lingxiu.

"Second most obedient baby, it's ti to eat."

Wen Lingxiu was taken aback, turned her head away in embarrassnt, her slightly curly long hair falling across her forehead, and said in a soft voice.

"Okay."

This look...

Anyone who didn't know would think Lu Xing was so kind of movie villain!

Wen Lingxiu let out a long sigh of relief. "So he really didn't realize..."

Otherwise.

Lu Xing would probably have flown into a rage by now.

A normal person, in a situation where they are not trusted, would probably lose their temper in various ways, right?

(ED: Err…no? Nah, bro. What is going on here? Am I the problem?)

Wen Lingxiu's heart instantly settled down.

The whole al was lively and bustling.

Nannan was talkative and cute, Lu Xing would tell jokes, and Wen Lingxiu was only responsible for serving food and smiling.

This is the best family scene, isn't it? she thought.

"I really can't eat anymore."

Lu Xing looked helplessly and amusedly at his rice bowl, which was so full it was about to overflow.

Is this so unique way of apologizing?

"Ah, sorry." Wen Lingxiu's ears turned slightly red. "I was afraid you wouldn't eat enough."

Her soft and gentle voice brushed against the tip of his heart. Any hardened steel would turn into soft, pliable threads.

Nannan blinked her eyes, looked at Lu Xing's expression, then at Wen Lingxiu's expression, and said in her childish voice.

"Ah! Mommy loves Daddy so much! Mommy isn't even serving Nannan anymore!"

"Did you get less to eat?"

Wen Lingxiu gave Nannan an amused sideways glance, but her hands were very honest and served Nannan another helping.

Lu Xing propped up his chin and watched this warm scene with a smile.

...

Night was falling.

Lu Xing ca out of the shower, changed into his pajamas, and suddenly found that his shirt was missing.

He looked outside and saw a gentle back.

Wen Lingxiu was wearing a white silk nightdress, her waist bent as she washed sothing at the sink.

Her long hair was loosely tied up, her gaze serious as she focused on the task at hand.

Lu Xing raised an eyebrow, thinking she was washing her own small items, and didn't pay much attention.

He was just about to walk past her when he suddenly realized...

"You washed my shirt?"

Wen Lingxiu humd in agreent. "I just washed it along with my things. It gets cleaner with soap."

Lu Xing chuckled, leaned against the door, and said with a smile.

"CEO Wen is washing my clothes for . I'll have to enshrine this shirt later."

A few drops of splashed water landed on Wen Lingxiu's face. She looked up and gave Lu Xing a sideways glance.

"Nonsense."

"It's not like I haven't washed them for you before."

This was the truth.

Although Wen Lingxiu was rich, Lu Xing felt she had her own way of life and wasn't as extravagantly luxurious as one might think.

Just like how she always felt that shirts and the like didn't get clean enough in the washing machine, so she would choose to hand-wash them when she had ti.

"Hehe, CEO Wen is the best!"

Lu Xing smiled happily at her and then said.

"Then I'll go tell Nannan a story first?"

Wen Lingxiu hesitated for a mont.

Lu Xing's voice was very pleasant, so when he read bedti stories, she would also lie beside them and listen.

As a professional simp, one must always be aware of the client's potential needs.

So Lu Xing appropriately offered a way out. "It's not that urgent. I can wait for you?"

Wen Lingxiu's brow smoothed out, and she said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll be done in a mont."

...

"And finally, the princess and the prince lived happily ever after..."

Lu Xing leaned against the large bed and read the last sentence.

The bedroom was quiet.

Wen Lingxiu and Nannan on the big bed had long since fallen asleep.

Lu Xing stood up without hesitation and gently closed the door.

He was not allowed to sleep here.

But thankfully,

Wen Lingxi-u was a bit better than Song Junzhu; she had prepared a guest room for him.

Three in the morning, Wen Lingxiu suddenly woke up with a start.

"Where did I put the earbuds?"

She had a nagging feeling that she had forgotten sothing!

Wen Lingxiu went downstairs in a panic and ran to the kitchen.

The entire kitchen was spotless.

The kitchen, which should have been left for the nanny to clean, was spotless!

Wen Lingxiu suddenly panicked.

Her brain, which had been soaked in Lu Xing's gentle embrace, finally started to work.

She had thought Lu Xing didn't know about this because his attitude was the sa as usual.

But what if...

What if Lu Xing knew and just didn't say anything?

Wen Lingxiu's heart was about to leap out of her throat. She looked down and saw a pair of black earbuds placed neatly on the counter.

A bolt from the blue!

Wen Lingxiu froze on the spot.

Lu Xing... found out!
