117: Chapter 113: Nanxi, What Are You Afraid Of?_2 117: Chapter 113: Nanxi, What Are You Afraid Of?_2 Nanxi reluctantly accepted the money from Xiangchen, but she did not spend it.
She bought a few items from the supermarket and returned.
It was two days later when she received a call from Lu Yinchu who told her he wanted to et, as they had things to discuss.
It was Children’s Day.
Nanxi dressed up and was ready to go out.
Before she left, she called Li Weihuan.
Li Weihuan sounded fine, ntioning that his sister had almost cleared up the issue with Ren Linlin.
Evidence had proven that Li Weihuan and Ren Linlin had not been intimate.
But Ren Linlin refused to let it go and insisted that he had.
Li Weihuan told Nanxi, “You have to believe , Nanxi.
I have no interest in other won, and I would never touch them when I have you.
I promise I’ll solve the issue with Ren Linlin as soon as possible…”
Nanxi lowered her head, her cheeks turning pink as she asked him about his plans for the future.
Li Weihuan said, “There’s no way I’m going back to the United States.
I’ve made up my mind.
I’m staying here.
I’ll go to work at my uncle’s company.
I may have to start from scratch, but I’ll learn.
I can manage by myself at twenty-sothing…”
Nanxi frowned, “Your uncle?”
Li Weihuan cleared his throat.
“Don’t worry about that.
I’ll handle it.
I won’t let you suffer for my sake, Nanxi.
I want you to know I’m making an effort for you.
Do you see that?”
It wasn’t until she saw the black Land Rover that she hung up, telling Li Weihuan, “No matter what, you need to be confident.
Don’t be too upset with your mother.
She was acting in your best interests.
Rember, you promised …”
The man opened the passenger seat door, so Nanxi had to get in the passenger seat.
They had not been in touch for a few days, but she had been following his news.
He had attended so ribbon-cutting ceremony, with a beautiful actress accompanying him.
Pictures of them together were everywhere…
This was not surprising.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the actress was asked about Yinchu during an interview and a flush rose to her face.
She smiled lightly, “I really admire Mr.
Lu…”
Her ambiguous words were blown out of proportion by the dia, leading to rumours of a budding relationship.
It all sounded quite nauseating…
Nanxi was indifferent to it all!
“Hello, Mr.
Lu!”
Nanxi greeted Lu Yinchu.
Lu Yinchu nodded slightly, his expression as calm as ever.
The car started, and Nanxi took a deep breath, turning to look out the window.
And then a sowhat cold voice spoke again, “I heard your boyfriend is back?
Is that true?”
Nanxi was taken aback, she didn’t expect Lu Yinchu to know about this.
“Heard from whom?” she wondered.
“Uh-huh.” She cleared her throat, then said, “Yes.”
“Hmm.” The man responded, but then fell silent again.
It seed he wasn’t very interested in this matter!
Nanxi lowered her head, not saying a word.
She then asked him, “Mr.
Lu, why did you want to see today?”
The way they parted that day had left a knot in Nanxi’s heart, which tightened further now that Li Weihuan was back!
So it was better to clarify everything, to prepare herself for what was to co!
Lu Yinchu said, “I plan to introduce you to my family the day after tomorrow, and there are things I need you to understand before that…”
He paused for a mont, then continued, “Also, since your boyfriend is back, I don’t want you to have any unnecessary emotional burden, so I wanted to talk about it…”
Nanxi: “…” She looked at him in astonishnt, surprised that he knew about this!
Clearing her throat, Nanxi said, “Here’s the thing…
my boyfriend is a really good person.
And I’ve been feeling guilty because I feel like I’ve been unfair to him because of this …thing between you and .
Mr.
Lu, I know I’m being irresponsible, but…”
Nanxi took a deep breath, summoning her courage, “…but can we find another way to settle the money?
Or maybe I can borrow it from you.
I really don’t have any other choice…”
“Nanxi…” Lu Yinchu interrupted her.
His voice was cold as he said, “Nanxi, the reason you feel guilty towards your boyfriend is because you’re a nice girl.
You weren’t seduced by the casual flirtation between us and didn’t fantasize about it…
In fact, it’s actually made more confident that choosing you was the right choice…”
Nanxi was stunned, looking at him in disbelief!
Lu Yinchu continued, “Nanxi, I think I’ve told you before that I have soone in my heart.
You might not understand how deep my feelings for that person are…
You might think that finding a woman to act as my girlfriend in front of my parents should have been easy, but not every woman can remain indifferent to …”
Nanxi lowered her head, “But…”
Lu Yinchu reassured her, “I hope to keep working with you, Nanxi.
I can promise you that I won’t let your boyfriend find out about us.
And I won’t put you in a difficult position…
Actually…”
Lu Yinchu paused, then turned to look at her and gave a faint smile.
He said, “Actually, Nanxi, as long as you can control your heart, what’s wrong with acting as my girlfriend?
Are you scared that you’ll fall in love with ?”
Nanxi was shocked, fall in love with Lu Yinchu?
That’s impossible…
Putting aside the fact that she and Lu Yinchu lived in different worlds, Nanxi had a boyfriend and Lu Yinchu loved soone else.
Even if, hypothetically, she and Lu Yinchu were thrust together as things stood, there was no way sothing could happen between them…
She would never fall in love with Lu Yinchu, not in a million years!
Nanxi gritted her teeth, her tone firm, “Of course not!
That will never happen!”
The man’s eyes dimd imperceptibly, but his facial expression did not change at all.
He smiled, “If that’s the case, Nanxi, what are you afraid of?”
—
3000 words, another 3000 coming!
It’s the end of the month, I ask for your votes and comnts!

Hmph!【(╯^╰)】
