Chapter 141 Wedding Candy

After attending the wedding banquet, Xia Zhen and Lu Jin took the bus home.

Xia Zhen sat on the inside by the window, leaning against the boy. Bored, she grabbed one of his hands. He opened his hand so she could better play with each of his fingers.

She was still muttering to herself, "Seeing how Teacher Wen looked on her wedding day today, I feel like she'll be very happy."

Lu Jin: "Mm."

Xia Zhen added, "I hope that person named Chen Jiang can talk things out with Teacher Wen. If Teacher Wen discovers his little secret one day, he might be finished."

"No." Lu Jin grasped her hand and enveloped her small hand in his own palm.

Xia Zhen looked up. "How do you know you can't?"

"He's a businessman; he knows what's important and what choices to make."

Xia Zhen thought for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, whatever you say goes. I believe you anyway."

Lu Jin raised the corners of his eyes slightly and patted the girl's head.

Xia Zhen asked with a smile, "Do you think I like you a lot, love you a lot, and cherish you a lot?"

He nodded slightly. "Yes."

"Can I have this bag of wedding candy you brought today?"

Lu Jin stared at her pretty face and chose to remain silent.

Xia Zhen felt extremely wronged. Her expression was bitter, and her voice was pitiful. "I like you so much, but you won't even give me a bag of wedding candy. In your heart, I'm not as important as a bag of candy!"

Not to brag, but when Xia Zhen is feeling wronged, her appearance is genuinely pitiful and endearing, especially since the person in front of her is her dear boyfriend.

Lu Jin sighed softly, his fingertips gently wiping away her wet eyes. "Okay, stop deliberately squeezing out tears."

If she starts to cry, then he really can't do anything about it, even if it's a matter of principle, he can't compromise.

Xia Zhen instantly stopped crying and looked expectantly at the box of wedding candy he had placed on his lap.

Lu Jin opened the box of wedding candy. He took most of the candy and put it in his pocket, leaving only a packet of dates with the words "May you have a son" printed on it.

Then, he repackaged the opened box and placed it in her hands.

Xia Zhen stared at him blankly, "Lu Jin, what do you mean?"

"You wanted my wedding candy, so here you are."

"But you only left me one date that I don't like!"

Lu Jin said in a low voice, "You didn't say I should give you this bag of wedding candy unopened."

Xia Zhen clutched her chest in anguish, "Lu Jin, you've really gone bad!"

How did such an honest child suddenly become so cunning!

Lu Jin wrapped one arm around her waist and placed his large hand on her stomach. His conscience didn't hurt at all. Instead, he calmly said, "If you cause any more trouble, I'll be even worse."

How much worse can he be?

Xia Zhen was no longer angry; instead, she became even more expectant.

She glanced at the few scattered passengers sitting around her, winked at him, lowered her voice, and whispered provocatively, "If you're so capable, then make me wait in bed with you and see how naughty you can be."

The girl's gaze was bold and passionate, directly seducing him.

Lu Jin's body stiffened slightly, as if the evil fire within him was about to burst forth again. He reached out a hand to cover her eyes, as if that would block her burning gaze.

Xia Zhen pouted.

He's easily provoked; he's still a novice.

Just then, his phone rang.

Lu Jin whispered in the girl's ear, "Behave yourself."

Xia Zhen gave a emotionless "Oh".

He then withdrew his hand from her eyes and took out his phone to answer the call.

"Lu Jin, are you still at the hotel? I just happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd drop by to see you."

Xia Zhen could vaguely hear the voice coming from the phone. She immediately looked up, squinted at him, and mouthed, "woman."

A smile appeared on Lu Jin's lips. He pinched her cheek and said to the person on the phone, "I've already left the hotel, Auntie."

He pronounced the last form of address with exceptional clarity.

Xia Zhen wasn't ashamed at all for being jealous. She confidently grabbed his arm and glared at him fiercely.

As his girlfriend, it's understandable that I would pay special attention to the women around him.

The person on the phone suddenly screamed, "Ah!!! Lu Jin!!! I'm so happy, you're calling me 'Auntie' now!!!"

Lu Jin held the phone further away from her ear.

After the person on the other end calmed down a bit, he took back his phone and said calmly, "I'm with my girlfriend right now. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."

The people over there were so excited they were practically going crazy, so of course they'd agree to whatever he said.

After the call ended, Xia Zhen asked curiously, "Lu Jin, is your aunt an easy person to get along with?"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Jin objectively said, "As long as you understand her personality, she is a very easy person to get along with."

"Then..." Xia Zhen hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

Lu Jin lowered his head and asked softly, "Do you want to ask if she harbors any resentment towards me because of Lu Chang'an?"

Xia Zhen nodded. The reason she hadn't dared to ask earlier was that she was afraid he would continue to feel uncomfortable about his life being switched.

Despite Xia Zhen's seemingly carefree nature and her tendency to tease and make lewd jokes with him, she actually considers his needs in every little detail.

This feeling of being cherished was something he had never experienced before.

Lu Jin pulled the girl closer to his chest, the coldness in his eyes vanished, replaced by tenderness. "Don't worry about me, I'm doing very well in the Lu family."

He was probably born into the Lu family; he was emotionally detached from many things. Even if he changed families, he didn't feel any discomfort. As long as he could quickly master the way of survival that corresponded to the environment, everything was simple for him.

On the other side, Lu Yuan, standing in the hotel corridor, couldn't hide her excitement and quickly posted a message on her WeChat Moments.

My adorable nephew called me "Auntie" today! You know, he's the kind of person who doesn't even call his own father "Dad"! I'm so touched, I could cry!

Not long after, she received a reply.

Lu Qi: [Smiling face.jpg]

Aside from this series of smiling emojis, Lu Qi didn't reply with any text, but those smiling emojis perfectly conveyed his feelings.

Lu Yuan proudly tossed her long hair.

Suddenly, a man reeking of alcohol bumped into them.

Lu Yuan quickly dodged away.

The drunken man steadied himself against the wall, and when he looked up, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman. His eyes lit up. "Beautiful lady, let's add each other on WeChat!"
