"You're a good boy, Riley. It's not safe. Don't do this again in the future, okay?" Seeing that half of his body was stretched out of the car window, Xia Xusheng was a little scared and quickly stopped him.
Lu Tangchen was sitting in the car and didn't intend to stop Lu Si at all.
Seeing that Xia Xusheng seemed to have changed into another person who was quiet and well-behaved, Xia Xusheng greeted Lu Tangchen with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Lu. Please pick me up. In fact, I can go back by myself."
Lu Tangchen looked at Xia Xunsheng, who was dressed in a small dress and had delicate makeup. There was a trace of surprise in his eyes. He had seen Xia Xunsheng in various states before, but he had never seen Xia Xunsheng, who was so glamorous at the moment. If she wanted to, she would definitely become the evil concubine of Daji.
"Well, it's not troublesome." Lu Chen nodded gently.
"Yes!" Lu Si looked at the two of them chatting, ignoring him. He stretched out his hand and made a soft sound of agreement, indicating for Xia Xusheng to hug him.
Xia Xunsheng's mouth was faster than his brain, and he said directly, "Hasng't Riley lost his voice?"
"..." Lu Chen looked at Xia Xunsheng in silence.
"Well, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it." Xia Xunsheng apologized in a hurry.
"The South Star didn't tell you? Riley just didn't want to talk, not that he couldn't." Lu Chen explained.
Xia Xusheng replied in a hurry, "Yes, yes, yes, but I don't have a good memory."
"You don't have a good memory." Lu Chen nodded seriously.
Xia Xusheng, who was looking for an excuse to change the topic, was a little confused! "I have a good memory, okay?"
Xia Xunsheng forced himself to change the subject and chat with Lu Si, trying his best to block Lu Chen, a large refrigeration equipment.
Because of Lu Si, the person that Xia Xunsheng had seen the most in the past two days was Lu Chen. Gradually, he was no longer so afraid of Lu Chen. He could try his best to ignore a big president who had been releasing cold air and chat with Lu Si easily.
Xia Xusheng had been thinking about what Lu Chen had said last night at the party. He had thought that they would not meet again so soon, so he was still thinking about passing by. But now Lu Si was going to make trouble and come to find him from time to time, so that she had no way to avoid Lu Chen's existence and the problem she had raised with him.
Because she saved Luthor in the dark storage room of the bar, he relied on her very much. Before he came out of the shock, she probably had to see him many times. She had a headache just thinking about it.
Soon, the car arrived at the Feng Hua Court. Xia Xunsheng walked into the living room with Lu Si in his arms with a calm look under the strange gaze of a group of servants. Because of the uniqueness of Lu Si, there were only five servants in the Feng Hua Court. Except when they had to appear, they would always hide in their own rooms to reduce their presence.
In this family, apart from Lu Chen and Lu Xing, Qin Xuan was the only one who could hug Lu Si.
The housekeeper, who went out to receive them, was a little surprised to see Lu Si lying in Xia Xusheng's arms obediently.
The one who was even more shocked was Qin Xuan. He opened his mouth so wide that he could put down an egg.
"President Lu, who is this?" Qin Xuan had been waiting for them in the villa. Lu Xingxing had not gotten off work yet, so no one came to help him solve his confusion.
"Hello, I'm Xia Xunsheng." Xia Xunsheng introduced himself.
"Hello, I'm a psychologist of Riley, Qin Xuan." Qin Xuan also responded politely, but he looked at Xia Xunsheng thoughtfully, especially when Lu Si was in Xia Xunsheng's arms and did not allow Qin Xuan to hold him.
"Doctor Qin, you can go back first. I'll take Riley there in person next week." Lu Chen nodded to Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan suppressed the tempestuous emotions in his heart and bid farewell to everyone without showing any emotion.
Luthor liked to be quiet, and Xia Xunsheng also had something to do, so the two of them held a book and watched in the living room, not disturbing each other. Lu Tangchen looked at such a warm picture and went back to the study to continue his work.
After dinner, Xia Xunsheng coaxed Lu Si to fall asleep, and then asked Lu Chen to leave.
"Miss Xia, you still don't agree with my suggestion?" Lu Tangchen sat behind the desk and looked up at Xia Xunsheng slightly. But even so, he was still very aggressive and didn't show any sign of weakness.
Xia Xusheng looked conflicted. "Mr. Lu, I know you value Riley very much, but marriage is not a child's play."
"Of course, I'm very serious."
"Do you know me well, Mr. Lu? We've only known each other for a few days, haven't we?" Xia Xunsheng continued.
Lu Tangchen closed the document and replied, "We can spend the rest of our lives getting to know each other."
Xia Xunsheng didn't expect that Lu Chen, the big shot who was well-known in the shop, would speak so quickly. It completely overturned her world outlook!
She had no choice but to take out her trump card. "I don't believe in love, and it's also a nonmarital custom!"
"Miss Xia, you can stay here now. Miss Xia's thoughts will be changed in a while," Lu Chen said with certainty.
"I won't change it. Why don't you give me five million now? I want money," Xia Xusheng said angrily.
Lu Tangchen didn't even frown. "Ask Special Assistant Li to transfer the money to you tomorrow, but now Riley needs your company because you saved Riley in the bar's storage room. He is very dependent on you now, so I hope you can consider it carefully."
"No matter how much he needs me, I can't just let him marry me." Xia Xunsheng was furious.
"Then let's stay here for a while. When Riley's situation gets better, Miss Xia, if you insist on your current choice, I respect Miss Xia's choice." Lu Chen took a step back and said.
If Lu Xing was here, he would definitely admire his brother from the bottom of his heart. He shouldn't have laughed at his brother for not flirting with girls before, but now it seemed that he was good at playing tricks.
After that, no matter what Xia Xusheng said, Lu Chen refused to listen to her. His response was extremely perfunctory. When Xia Xusheng's mouth was dry, the housekeeper came to knock on the door of the study.
"Big Master, the guest room is ready." The butler reported respectfully.
Lu Chen raised his head again from the document and said, "Take Miss Xia there. Miss Xia, if you need anything, you can ask the housekeeper."
Xia Xunsheng, who failed to resist, could only stay in the Feng Hua Court. Fortunately, the crew had not been turned on in the past few days, so she did not have to run around. So she read their own books at home and waited for Lu Chen to go home for dinner in the evening.
Lunan Xing came back once, but he was driven away by Lu Tangchen and moved back to the old house.
Xia Xunsheng lived a leisurely life of being isolated from the outside world in the Feng Hua Court, and he didn't know what was going on outside at all.
