Preparation No. 35



"Protect me? Do you know martial arts?" Li Xi was surprised. She thought he was just an ordinary driver, but he turned out to be an all-round bodyguard?

"Hehe, I know a little. Uncle Wu arranged for me to drive Miss Li because I know some Kung Fu." The driver scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled a little silly.

"Pfft(/≧▽≦)/" Seeing the young man like this, Li Xi, who was just reflecting on it, suddenly laughed. Is her own personal driver so cute? "Uncle Wu really didn't tell me about this. He just said that I would come to you when I needed a car in the future. I just thought you were a good driver."

"I'm a very good driver and there have never been any problems!" the driver assured, patting his chest.

Li Xi was once again touched by the driver's cuteness and smiled even more.

When Luo Jingxuan opened the car door, he saw Li Xi's smiling face. Suddenly, he felt gentle, then furious. Luo Jingxuan didn't know why he had these two conflicting emotions at once.

He frowned slightly and sat down in the car.

"You're off work." Li Xi was in a good mood at the moment. Seeing Luo Jingxuan's cold face, she was not afraid at all. She greeted him with a smile.

Luo Jingxuan said "hmm" coldly.

His tone was the same as usual, but Li Xi could sense that he was in a bad mood. However, she didn't think much of it, just thinking that he was having a bad day at work.

Assistant Jiang happened to be sitting in the passenger seat at this moment, so he turned around and greeted Assistant Jiang directly.

"Good evening, Assistant Jiang."

"Good evening, Miss Li."

Seeing that Li Xi not only ignored him but also greeted Assistant Jiang with a smile, Luo Jingxuan became even more angry and his voice was colder than usual, "Drive."

Li Xi and the driver didn't feel much, but Assistant Jiang, who often followed Luo Jingxuan, heard that the boss was angry.

Assistant Jiang was puzzled. He had just heard in the office that Miss Li had gone downstairs. She was apparently fine and even a little excited. Why did she suddenly become unhappy?

Although he was curious, Assistant Jiang was not so stubborn as to ask the boss why he was unhappy. He just sat upright in the passenger seat, acting like a mute quail.

But Li Xi was stubborn. She could tell Luo Jingxuan was in a bad mood, but since he was fine before, she assumed he was just having a hard time at work. Not knowing how to comfort him, she tried to distract him. So she turned around and, pretending to be experienced, assessed Luo Jingxuan's expression.

"Is work very busy today? Are you tired?"

"Not bad." Seeing Li Xi sizing him up out of the corner of his eye, Luo Jingxuan's anger faded. Hearing her concern for him, his mood instantly brightened. He didn't realize there was anything wrong with this, nor did he consider why Li Xi could affect his mood. He simply followed Li Xi's words, his tone softening.

"While work is important, you also need to take breaks and not overwork yourself."

"good."

"You have to eat on time, too, or you'll upset your stomach. There's a saying, 'Nine out of ten domineering CEOs have stomach problems, eight have tobacco cravings, six have mysophobia, and five suffer from insomnia.' So being a domineering CEO is a very dangerous job. You have to be extra careful."

"Ten, nine, eight, six, what's seven?"

"Seven?" Li Xi hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth, "Seven cannot accept anyone other than the heroine."

"Puff~" Luo Jingxuan only twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, the laughter suppressed in his throat, but Assistant Jiang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, burst out laughing. This made Li Xi and Luo Jingxuan look over.

"Ahem." Assistant Jiang knew he had gotten into trouble and immediately stopped laughing and apologized, "Sorry, I didn't mean it."

"It's okay. Just laugh if you want to." Li Xi was not angry. This was not a big deal. The CEO writing routine summarized by netizens was so funny.

Luo Jingxuan glanced at Assistant Jiang's back calmly and said nothing. However, it was unknown whether he would wait for an opportunity to retaliate later. At this moment, he just turned his head to look at Li Xi, his tone still gentle, "Five and six are here, what about four, three, two, and one?"

Li Xi glanced up at Luo Jingxuan. She hadn't expected him to be interested in this, so she began to copy the information she'd read online. "So, what's next? Four families are marrying off. Three of them are disabled, and everything will be fine once they meet the heroine." Speaking of disabled, Li Xi glanced at Luo Jingxuan again, thinking of how he looked when she first met him, and the tanned bodyguard and lame boss couple she'd been obsessed with. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. "Four of them are surnamed Gu, three are surnamed Shen, two are surnamed Fu, and one is surnamed Lu. There must be a doctor who keeps yelling, 'Can't we sleep anymore?' There's an old butler with white hair who's wiping his tears with a handkerchief, 'I haven't seen the young master smile in a long time.'"

After Li Xi finished speaking, Assistant Jiang in the front seat was shaking from trying to hold back his laughter, and the driver's muscles were tense and his face flushed red.

As for Luo Jingxuan, Luo Jingxuan didn't laugh out loud, but the corners of his mouth were raised, his eyebrows were curved, and he smiled very beautifully.

Li Xi also laughed, amused by herself and by Luo Jingxuan's beautiful face.

For a moment, the whole carriage was filled with laughter.

But once she stepped into the Luo family's gate, Li Xi couldn't smile anymore. There were just too many people.
