Chapter 339 I've never seen such an arrogant and presumptuous mistress before.
If only this house were her own. Duan Xue's family is quite poor, and for many years she has been living in the company dormitory with other employees.
Previously, Lu Qinghe had given her money, but in order to maintain her aloof image, she never took a single penny, only accepting the jewelry and other gifts he bought for her.
At this moment, Nan Xia and Lu Qinghe heard the doorbell and came out. When they saw that it was the assistant, they were both stunned, especially Lu Qinghe, whose eyes were full of warning!
She secretly clenched her fists. Who told her to come here?
What is her purpose in coming here? To sabotage her marriage registration with Nanxia?
"Hello Mr. Lu, hello Attorney Nan. Oh, this is the Second Miss who called to come and cook lunch. I've already bought the groceries. By the way, I also bought some nutritional supplements for Attorney Nan. Is your injury any better?"
Ignoring the man's warning, Duan Xue spoke enthusiastically, walked to the coffee table, put down the nutritional supplements, and then took a large bag of vegetables and placed it on the island counter.
She had never used an open kitchen before. It looked so elegant and beautiful. The person who cooked here must exude a unique charm, right?
"..." Lu Qingya was furious when she heard what that damned assistant said. When did she ask him to come over?
That woman is awful!
What kind of monster did this guy mess with?
But looking at her best friend, she had to force a smile and nod.
"It's almost noon, and I'm not a very good cook. My brother just got back today, so he must be tired. That's why I asked her to come and cook something."
"We can order from the restaurant for lunch, you don't need to cook, go back." Nan Xia had never really liked this assistant, always feeling that she was pretentious and manipulative.
“The food ordered from outside restaurants is not hygienic. Attorney Nan, you need nutrition right now to take care of your health. Since Miss Nan has invited me over, I'll make lunch for you.”
As Duan Xue spoke, she took out the things from the bag and immediately started washing the vegetables.
Lu Qinghe looked at her sister and frowned. Why did she call this woman over to cook? What if that woman wanted to cause trouble?
Qingya glanced at her older brother, coughed lightly, and realized she couldn't explain herself to him now. She was still furious. She walked over to her best friend, helped her to the sofa, and said:
"Let her do it. You sit down and rest. Shall we find a movie to watch? It's been so long since we watched a movie together."
Is that woman looking for trouble? Fine, I'll teach her a lesson in public today!
Seeing that her best friend had said that, Nanxia didn't say anything more. However, she also disliked strangers appearing in her home.
Lu Qinghe walked to her side and asked gently, "What fruit would you like to eat? I'll go wash it."
“Strawberry,” she said.
"Okay, I'll go check if they have any."
He affectionately patted her head, walked to the refrigerator, opened it, and saw that there really was some inside. Hmm, his sister also likes to eat this fruit, which is why he often buys it.
He took it to the restroom inside to wash it, deliberately keeping his distance from his assistant.
Duan Xue glanced at him and felt a pang of jealousy seeing how gentle he was with that woman… He was only affectionate towards her in bed; otherwise, he showed her no special treatment.
Lu Qingya deliberately found a very scary ghost movie and projected it onto the TV. She loves watching thrilling and exciting ghost movies, while Nan Xia is most afraid of watching these kinds of movies.
"Let's choose something else. Who watches this in the middle of the day?" Nanxia quickly called out to her.
"Won't you be even scarier if I let you watch it at night? I haven't watched it in ages, just keep me company." She clung to her best friend's arm and acted coquettishly. Actually, she wanted her best friend and brother to get closer, to infuriate the woman in the kitchen.
Nanxia looked at her helplessly, and could only take a cushion and hug it tightly in her arms, leaning back against the sofa, her whole body tensing up as she listened to the eerie music.
Lu Qinghe walked over with a plate of strawberries, sat down next to his fiancée, and pretended to scold his sister: "Xiaxia is scared, why are you still looking?"
"Watching a horror movie is more interesting if at least one person is scared. If no one is scared, what's the point?" she said.
Nan Xia suddenly poked her forehead and sneered, "Are you building your happiness on my pain?"
"I love seeing you scared. It's more interesting than watching a horror movie. You're usually so serious and reserved, it's rare to see you lose control of your emotions," Qingya said with a smile.
Nanxia looked at her treacherous best friend helplessly. Lu Qinghe picked the biggest strawberry and fed it to her: "Here, take a bite of the top one, it's sweeter."
"I can eat by myself, no need to be so delicate." She reached out to take it, a little awkwardly, but he abruptly moved his hand away, humming as he said:
"When you become my wife, I'm going to spoil you rotten. Just open your mouth and eat."
Nanxia looked at him, then opened her mouth and took a bite. The tip of the strawberry was indeed the sweetest. Just as she was about to take a second bite, he ate the strawberry bottom instead—
"Uh, that's what I ate," she said awkwardly.
"I don't mind, from now on you can eat the sweetest things, and I'll take care of the rest," Lu Qinghe said, spoiling her.
Nanxia looked at the man. These sweet words were indeed pleasing to the ear. Did he really like her?
I hope I won't make the wrong choice.
Duan Xue, who was busy in the kitchen, almost cut her own hand while holding the kitchen knife, seeing how much the man doted on Nan Xia!
She tried hard to control her jealousy and continued chopping her vegetables.
Lu Qingya glanced at the woman in the kitchen, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Hmph, I'll make that son of a bitch furious. I've never seen such an arrogant and conceited mistress before."
How dare they come to the home of the person in question to curry favor!
Suddenly, a terrifying ghost face appeared on the TV screen, startling Nan Xia, who screamed, "Ah...!!!"
Lu Qinghe saw how cute she looked, clutching her pillow and looking terrified, and took the opportunity to hug her. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
"You two siblings keep watching, or I won't dare sleep alone tonight," Nan Xia said, her heart pounding. She tried to get up and go back to her bedroom, but her best friend suddenly pulled her back down to sit.
"Don't go, what's the point of watching this with my brother? At worst, I'll sleep with you tonight."
"You said it yourself." Sleeping with my best friend at night is great; I don't have to worry about Lu Qinghe trying to find an excuse to come into my bedroom at night.
"I said it, I said it. If I don't stay with you, I'm a dog," Qingya said, clinging to her arm.
More than an hour later, after they finished watching the movie, Lu Qingya noticed that the mistress still hadn't prepared lunch and asked coldly:
"Does Assistant Duan even have the ability to cook? It's almost one o'clock, are you trying to starve us? Why take on a job you're not qualified for?"
