Chapter 200: Chapter 197: A Day as Husband and Wife Brings a Hundred Days of Grace
Old Lee stood still, the corner of his eye twitching, almost fainting from anger caused by her, nearly passing out on the spot.
“You, you did that on purpose, didn’t you…!”
Wen Xian, with one foot in a Martin boot, stepped directly onto a nearby stone, hugged her chest, scoffed, and lifted her chin slightly:
“What if I did? Who asked you to introduce candidates to Lu Xiao?”
Upon hearing this, Old Lee was montarily stunned.
His face turned from white to red in an instant, and his expression suddenly beca sowhat awkward.
...
However, he seed to want to struggle a bit more, puffing at his beard:
“No, it wasn’t , how could I do such a thing. But speaking of that, there are many girls pining after Captain Lu, and all of them work at governnt institutions. You’d better be quick.”
He had long forgotten about the matchmaking matter.
Old Lee couldn’t fathom how she found out.
Then, at this mont, the little puppy that had scampered off had returned.
It had been a while, and it now looked more vivacious. At the mont, it was prancing next to a withered poplar bush, lifting its little hind leg to pee, marking its territory with its signature scent.
After finishing its business and looking back, its bright, dark eyes saw a woman shalessly staring at it, which triggered it to excitedly bark nonstop.
It seed to have recognized who she was!
Seeing the pair, Wen Xian touched her forehead in resignation, feeling it was all too much.
And at the mont,
The little creature rushed towards her, and Wen Xian instinctively dodged, only to bump right into a firm, tough body behind her.
As she looked up, she found herself gazing into the man’s dark pupils, which now seed to have a touch of indifference.
Lu Xiao moved aside to stand at a distance. He was next to a convoy ready to depart for a geological survey with Professor Xiao from the Science Academy.
The little wolf pup pranced over to Lu Xiao’s side, barking again at her.
Wen Xian took a deep breath: “…”
For a mont, it was as if she was back to the first night in the jurisdiction area when it had barked at her.
And it was then that she truly understood what it ant for a dog to ride on the coattails of its owner.
But now—?
She glanced sharply at Lu Xiao, who appeared indifferent, his gaze resting on the vehicles not far away, not even giving her a glance.
“…”
She imdiately felt her heart damnably ache.
The little wolf pup got even more agitated in its barking. Seeing Lu Xiao unmoved, it rushed towards Wen Xian, viciously biting and pulling at the laces of her Martin boot.
A fierce beast, indeed!
Just when Wen Xian felt bullied again by the little wolf pup and a sense of grievance welled up inside her, suddenly—
The wolf pup was abruptly picked up; Lu Xiao unceremoniously tossed it to the side.
“Go play over there.”
He even gave it a kick on its behind.
The little pup was stunned, seemingly unable to grasp why its master was suddenly showing favoritism, abandoning it.
When Lu Xiao looked at Wen Xian again, his expression was still mild, but he said, “Aren’t you coming over?”
Wen Xian: “…”
After snapping out of it, she threw herself into his arms, her lips curving into an uncontrollable slight smile.
She murmured softly, “I just knew.”
“You knew what?”
Wen Xian playfully rubbed against him in his embrace: “A couple for a day, holds an affection for a hundred…”
Lu Xiao: “…”
…
anwhile, not far away, a white sedan was driving towards the jurisdiction area…!
