It was 6:10 PM.
The plane landed in Qingjiang City.
After a group of people got off the plane, they waited for their checked baggage to be assigned. By the time they received their luggage, it was already 7:00.
Lu Ruxue, Zhuang Wen, Dong Qiang and others came out of the airport dragging their suitcases.
Of course, Lu Ruxue's suitcase was being dragged by Zhuang Wen.
Gazing at the colorful neon lights in the distance, Zhuang Wen took a deep breath of the familiar air, feeling as if he had returned to another world.
"You've all worked hard these past few days. You can rest at home tomorrow."
Lu Ruxue turned to Dong Qiang and the others and said.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
Dong Qiang and the others hurriedly expressed their gratitude.
"You should go home."
Lu Ruxue nodded slightly, her voice clear and cold.
"Okay, Mr. Lu, how will you get back?"
Dong Qiang nodded.
"I've already sent someone to pick me up. You guys go ahead."
The road was like a snowy path.
"Okay, Mr. Lu, we'll be going now."
After they finished speaking, they turned to leave.
Dong Qiang turned to look at Zhuang Wen and said with a smile, "Secretary Zhuang, where do you live? Should I give you a ride home?"
Before Zhuang Wen could speak, Lu Ruxue shot him a clear, cold gaze. "I have something to discuss with him. You can go now."
"Okay."
Dong Qiang immediately replied, gave Zhuang Wen a look that said "I can't help you," and then turned and left.
"What do you want from me? Do you want to come home with me, and then... um?"
He grinned mischievously and whispered in Lu Ruxue's ear.
Lu Ruxue turned her head, her cheeks slightly flushed, and said coquettishly, "It's not me going home with you, it's you wanting to go home with me?"
"ah?"
Zhuang Wen was taken aback.
"My parents asked me to invite you home for dinner tonight."
Lu Ruxue explained.
"go home?"
Zhuang Wen's eyes widened in surprise.
Lu Ruxue looked at Zhuang Wen, her face flushed.
Clearly, she had also sensed something.
However, she didn't say much.
Zhuang Wen felt a warmth in his heart. He scratched his head at Lu Ruxue and smiled, "Oh, should I go to the mall to buy something?"
Seeing his somewhat simple and honest appearance, Lu Ruxue noticed a gentle smile playing on his beautiful eyebrows and eyes.
"No need, I'm just going to have a home-cooked meal."
As Lu Ruxue spoke, she reached out and gently straightened Zhuang Wen's collar.
Although her fingers were trembling slightly, her movements were still smooth.
Her obedient appearance is just like that of a dutiful wife who listens to her husband.
Zhuang Wen stared at Lu Ruxue, somewhat lost in thought at her intimate gesture.
At that moment, Lu Ruxue looked up, her clear and shy eyes sparkling like silk threads.
Their gazes met in the air, instantly becoming tender and lingering.
Suddenly, the atmosphere around us seemed to become ambiguous.
Just then, a cool breeze blew by, and the two of them came back to their senses.
Then, Lu Ruxue shyly looked away.
"That's true, given our current relationship, we're practically family."
Upon seeing this, Zhuang Wen revealed a smug smile.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ruxue's cheeks flushed even more, as if she were drunk. Her eyes, watery and slightly lowered, stared at the tips of her high heels, and she murmured softly, "What...what kind of relationship do we have? Who's with you..."
Beep beep!
Just then, a car horn sounded in the distance.
Then, a black sedan slowly drove up and finally stopped in front of the two of them.
The passenger window rolled down, revealing a delicate and charming fair face with bright eyes and a touch of mature elegance.
Lu Linglong!
After not seeing her for a few days, Zhuang Wen noticed that Lu Linglong seemed to have become more beautiful.
Just as he was in a daze, Lu Linglong smiled and said to them, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get in the car."
"Get in the car."
Lu Ruxue gently nudged Zhuang Wen.
Zhuang Wen realized what was happening, first put the two suitcases in the trunk of the car, and then got into... the back seat.
Because Lu Ruxue occupied the front passenger seat.
Sitting in the back seat, listening to the conversation between Lu Linglong and Lu Ruxue in the front row, Zhuang Wen had a vague feeling.
I am the boss, and the two of them are my employees.
But listening to them talking about things unrelated to work, Zhuang Wen had a strange feeling.
He was the head of the household, while Lu Linglong and Lu Ruxue got along harmoniously.
When a thought suddenly popped into his head, it startled him, and his expression changed.
At that moment, Lu Linglong, who had been secretly watching Zhuang Wen, noticed his unusual behavior immediately.
"Zhuang Wen, what's wrong?"
Her voice was soft, with a hint of concern.
Lu Linglong turned around at this moment, her clear eyes staring at him.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just heard you say that your aunt cooks at home, and I'm really looking forward to eating her food. I'm so hungry."
Zhuang Wen hurriedly said.
"Hehe, my mom isn't here, so don't try to flatter her. Everyone knows her cooking is terrible."
Lu Linglong giggled.
Lu Ruxue smiled and glanced at Zhuang Wen.
"Sigh, you guys don't understand."
Zhuang Wen, feigning profundity, uttered a sentence.
"Oh? You seem to know a lot about this. Could you analyze it for us?"
Lu Linglong joked.
"I can only say that everyone's taste is different. What you think is bad, I may think is delicious, and what you think is delicious, I may not think is so delicious."
Zhuang Wen said.
"Stop beating around the bush, it's giving me a headache."
