Hua Xuening was nervous. "Sister Shiyin, why are you here? Didn't we agree to give a day?"
Luo Shiyin gently brushed Hua Xuening's hair, and Hua Xuening imdiately lowered her head like a well-behaved little sister.
Luo Shiyin asked softly, "Is Mr. Lu treating you well?"
"Yes, he's very good to ."
Luo Shiyin's heart stirred.
This girl, so firm and resolute, it seems Lu Chengwen does have so tricks up his sleeve.
Won are most perceptive of such matters.
n can be clueless sotis, like Lu Chengwen.
Lu Chengwen was shrewd at tis, but at other tis he could be unbelievably dense, especially when it ca to won.
He was rather slow in this regard.
But between won, a subtle gesture, a simple sentence, an unintentional expression... they could read each other's minds.
This Hua Xuening was clearly completely smitten with Lu Chengwen, already deeply fallen. If she wasn't pulled back now, there would be no chance later.
This strengthened Luo Shiyin's resolve.
She had to win over Lu Chengwen! Even if it ant using her most powerful techniques!
Lu Chengwen said into the phone, "I have to go, I have a guest."
Xu Xuejiao also encountered a situation on her end. Long Aotian ca to chat with her.
Xu Xuejiao imdiately put on a straight face and asked, "Is it a woman?"
Lu Chengwen was taken aback. "Yes."
"Lu Chengwen, how many won are you going to ss with before you're satisfied? Am I not enough for you?"
Lu Chengwen sensed sothing was wrong. "No, it's Luo Shiyin, nothing is going on between us."
"Don't give that! I'm not a three-year-old child! Lu Chengwen, I'm so disappointed in you! No wonder ngyun broke up with you, you really are a dog who can't change his eating habits!"
Lu Chengwen watched Luo Shiyin talking to Hua Xuening, his mind racing.
"Are you doing this on purpose?"
His words had a double aning. On the surface, he was expressing anger, but the underlying aning was: Are you pretending to be angry on purpose?
Xu Xuejiao understood and imdiately replied, "Yes! That's right! You can still understand what I'm saying, which ans you still have a brain!"
Lu Chengwen understood and started to play along. "I'm warning you, Xu Xuejiao, you've been ssing with a lot lately! Don't think the world revolves around you, I, Lu Chengwen, can live just fine without you!"
Xu Xuejiao "got into character" as well.
"Lu Chengwen! From today onwards, you go find your Leng Qingqiu, ngyun and I will never pay attention to you again! It's not like I, Xu Xuejiao, can't get married, that I have to have you. I can live a good life without you!"
Lu Chengwen roared, "Then why the hell are you calling ? Don't you dare bother again!"
"Get lost!"
"Fine, I will!"
Luo Shiyin narrowed her eyes and asked Hua Xuening, "Why is he so angry?"
Hua Xuening, unaware of the situation, simply said foolishly, "He's been losing his temper a lot lately. He's lost a lot of money, and now people are after him for it every day. He's under a lot of pressure."
Luo Shiyin nodded.
Of course, she knew what Lu Chengwen was currently doing, and she knew how terrifying the burn rate of the Chengwen District construction project was.
For soone like Lu Chengwen, it was perfectly normal for him to lose his temper with this kind of money-burning approach.
"Shouldn't he be trying to coax Xu Xuejiao into helping him out financially?"
Hua Xuening was taken aback. "You're right! You're right!"
Lu Chengwen hung up the phone and threw it on the sofa, lit a cigar, put on his sunglasses, and cursed under his breath, "Damn it, always causing trouble for ."
Luo Shiyin strolled over. "What's got you so riled up, Mr. Lu?"
"Oh, Miss Shiyin." Lu Chengwen said casually, "Please, have a seat. It's nothing, just a minor business matter. You're here on business, I presu?"
"The Young Master said you promised to give him that plot of land, and he asked to co and finalize it."
"Oh, that plot of land..."
On the other side.
Xu Xuejiao saw Long Aotian quietly approaching her room from the reflection of her phone screen.
She told herself, stay calm, ti to show what I'm made of!
This was the first ti she was going head-to-head with this big shot, she had to use so reliable skills from the start and control him.
Otherwise, once this "warrior" got going, there would be no stopping him.
So, Xu Xuejiao threw the phone on the carpet, sat on the bed, hugged her knees, buried her forehead in them, and pretended to cry, her shoulders shaking.
Long Aotian took one look.
So adorable!
A heartbroken little girl, at her loneliest and most helpless mont.
Having experienced betrayal and infidelity!
In tears and sadness!
Heartbroken and desperate!
What did she need!?
Correct!
A strong arm, a comforting gaze, and the warmth and excitent of a man's explosive hormones!
Long Aotian walked in, soundlessly, and slowly picked up the phone.
Xu Xuejiao was already sobbing. "Liars, they're all liars... They're nice to when I have money, say I'm pretty, but tell to scram when I don't... Sob... They're all liars! All n are trash!"
Long Aotian gently handed her the phone. "That's not true."
Xu Xuejiao didn't even look, she just raised her hand and slapped Long Aotian across the face!
Slap!
Long Aotian covered his face in shock. "What was that for!?"
Xu Xuejiao yelled, "All n are trash! You're no different!"
The mont Xu Xuejiao lifted her head, Long Aotian admitted his heart skipped a beat.
Such a delicate and utterly perfect little beauty!
Her face was as white as cream, her skin flawless, her eyelashes long and dark, her eyes filled with tears...
He wanted so badly, to be with her!
Long Aotian held his cheek. "I understand you're upset."
Xu Xuejiao glared at Long Aotian. "What are you doing in my room?"
"Seeing you so sad, I couldn't just sit back and do nothing."
Xu Xuejiao yelled, "What do you know!? You n are all the sa, only after money!"
"No! I'm not!"
Long Aotian said, "I'm not like Lu Chengwen. I'm decent, humble, sincere, and I have a strong sense of justice!"
"Of course, you would say that! What, when I run out of money, you'll ask to go back ho and get more for your investnts, ignoring if I don't? Is that it?"
Long Aotian thought to himself, Lu Chengwen, look at the damage you've caused without even realizing it!
"Xuejiao, I..."
As Long Aotian was about to hug her, Xu Xuejiao slapped him again.
Long Aotian covered his face. "Miss, I'm trying to comfort you! Why do you keep hitting ?"
"You think I don't know what you're thinking? Use for my money and then dump , isn't that right?"
Long Aotian raised two fingers. "I, Long Aotian, swear to heaven, I am not a heartless bastard like Lu Chengwen! If I ever do anything to hurt you, Xuejiao, let be struck by lightning and torn apart by horses!"
Xu Xuejiao looked up, her tear-stained face beautiful and pitiful.
Long Aotian's heart ached for her.
She truly was a gift from heaven! This... This was too perfect!
"Xuejiao, I know Lu Chengwen hurt you and didn't even bat an eye. Please believe , I will avenge you!"
Xu Xuejiao turned away, still angry. "You're in cahoots with him, don't think I don't know!"
"How could I be in cahoots with him? I'm nothing like him!"
"I heard it from him, you two swore brotherhood, sworn brothers, you're going to make a fortune together. And he's already planning to build his harem, I bet you're the sa!"
Long Aotian said excitedly, "I swear! I haven't even started one yet! Lu Chengwen snatched all the beauties away!"
Xu Xuejiao looked at him pitifully. "Really?"
"Really."
Xu Xuejiao lowered her head, playing with her toes. "I still feel like you two are in cahoots."
"Xuejiao, I know you're not in a good mood. How about this, let it all out, all the anger, frustration, sadness, despair... let it all out!"
Xu Xuejiao slapped him again. "Jerk!"
Long Aotian covered his face with one hand and stopped her with the other. "Okay! You don't have to let it all out."
"See, you say one thing and do another, you're not sincere at all. Go away, just go!"
Long Aotian thought to himself, this girl... she's a wildcat!
Addicted to hitting people!
Who wants to play with you, go play by yourself.
I got slapped three tis for nothing. What a joke.
He turned to leave, and as he reached the door, Xu Xuejiao's cries reached him.
"Sob... sob... I'm so pathetic, sob... n are heartless... sob..."
Long Aotian took a deep breath in frustration and turned around.
"Xuejiao, what exactly happened between you and Lu Chengwen?"
Xu Xuejiao said, "He... He's not human! He toyed with !"
"What!? How dare he! How did he toy with you?"
Xu Xuejiao blushed. "He... he got a bunch of weird stuff, said... they were toys, wanted to play along..."
Long Aotian gritted his teeth. "That scum!"
Xu Xuejiao cried, "I'm a virgin! How could I do that? Those things, I couldn't even bear to look!"
"Of course, of course."
"I was so embarrassed when I saw those things, how could I possibly play along with him?"
"Exactly!"
"And it was my first ti, he wanted to do that, wouldn't I... wouldn't I beco a slut? How could he bully like that?"
"Beast!"
"I refused, and he said I was a killjoy, that I had no sense of romance, and he even said..." Xu Xuejiao started crying again, "He said I was useless! Sob..."
Long Aotian gritted his teeth. "I'm going to kill him!"
"No, Brother Aotian! I..."
Xu Xuejiao lowered her head. "Although he treated badly, he was my first boyfriend, my first love. I don't want things to end so ugly and unbearable."
Long Aotian was moved. She was so pure and innocent!
Xu Xuejiao gave a bitter smile. "I used to be so proactive with him. It seems I made a mistake. Maybe soone like doesn't deserve that kind of... love that girls dream of."
"No! Xuejiao! Don't say that about yourself! It's Lu Chengwen who's in the wrong!"
Long Aotian said passionately, "I promise, from now on, I will treat you like my own sister, and I will never let that scum, Lu Chengwen, hurt you again!"
"You... why are you being so nice to ? I... I even tricked you before."
"That's nothing! A man should be forgiving and magnanimous! A man who can't forgive a woman's mistakes isn't a real man!"
Xu Xuejiao's eyes widened as she looked at Long Aotian. Their eyes t, a spark igniting between them.
Long Aotian slowly moved closer to Xu Xuejiao. Xu Xuejiao suddenly turned away. "You... you're being silly."
There's a chance!
Long Aotian was secretly delighted!
He took Xu Xuejiao's hand. "Xuejiao, don't you know how I feel about you?"
Xu Xuejiao blushed. "I don't! You n are all bad."
"But I'm a gentleman, you know that."
"Really?"
"I swear to heaven!"
"Then... can you help with sothing?"
"Anything! As long as I can do it!"
Xu Xuejiao looked at Long Aotian. "I want to be the CEO.
