Chapter 477 The Problematic Baby VS The Arrogant Guy Who Loves to Ask Questions 29
In the days that followed, Lu Jingxun met with Jiang Zhiyi almost every day, either going to see her in person or using various seemingly reasonable excuses to get her to come see him.
The Lu family's servants also became frequent visitors to the Jiang family, bringing large and small packages over every few days.
Jiang Zhiyi has now bought almost all the things she used to want but couldn't bring herself to buy.
The house is still dilapidated, but the interior has been completely renovated, furnished with the best and most intelligent furniture. The old sofas and beds have all been replaced with new ones...
To prevent Jiang Liangcai and Wang Huilan from overthinking, Jiang Zhiyi even had Lu Jingxun fabricate a touching story: "He was disabled and accidentally fell into the water, and she bravely rescued him."
In this way, there was a barely plausible explanation for the various items that Jiang Zhiyi asked Lu Jing for.
In the garden pavilion of the Lu family, Jiang Zhiyi was lazily lying on a deck chair, basking in the sun. There were many fresh fruits on the side, and she would occasionally put a bite in her mouth.
The nanny said that these were all air-freighted from abroad.
The thought that these fruits might have been hanging high on the branches of some small island abroad yesterday, exposed to wind and rain, and that they were already in her mouth today, overflowing with juice, filled Jiang Zhiyi with a sense of emotion.
So this is what life is like for the rich.
It felt both strange and familiar.
Putting aside the business she knew nothing about, she and Lu Jingxun were both human beings, and they had the same basic needs in terms of food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. For example, they both needed to eat and wear clothes... It's just that the ways to satisfy these basic needs were completely different.
Looking at Jiang Zhiyi lying comfortably in front of him, Lu Jingxun felt a strange, indescribable feeling...
Melancholy.
I never imagined that this word would be used to describe him one day.
He didn't know how to describe the feeling he was experiencing.
Jiang Zhiyi has clearly taken the bait and is basking in the wonderful life he has provided. Everything is under his control, but he still feels that something is not quite right.
Lu Jingxun stopped thinking about it and tried to ignore that strange feeling.
He took out an exquisite gift box and handed it to her.
The gift box was tied with a dark brown ribbon, the bow was neatly and beautifully tied, and it was clear at a glance that it was quite valuable.
Jiang Zhiyi glanced at Lu Jingxun before opening the box.
Inside was a limited-edition doll with soft white plush fur, two round, bright eyes like black beans, and a cute little floral dress...
Jiang Zhiyi had only seen it on TV the day before yesterday and mentioned it casually. She never expected that Lu Jingxun would bring it to her in just one day.
Jiang Zhiyi quite liked it, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you suddenly being so nice to me?"
She's asked this question dozens of times these past few days, but she still wants to ask it every time.
Jiang Zhiyi isn't stupid.
Lu Jingxun's change was so obvious; he was almost unconditionally kind to her, granting her every wish and giving her whatever she asked for.
This was like a meat pie falling from the sky for her, and a super-sized meat pie with a whole cow inside.
The strangest thing would be if she didn't find it strange.
In the past, whenever she asked, Lu Jingxun would give her a vague answer to brush her off.
But today, Lu Jingxun is preparing to change his tune.
The time is almost up, and their relationship can take another step forward. Of course, the day that will cause her pain will also come closer.
Lu Jingxun lowered his eyes and tried to speak gently: "Didn't you say before that you liked me and wanted to be my girlfriend? ...After spending time with you these past few days, I've come to like you too. I accept your confession."
Jiang Zhiyi paused, her hand still holding the jerky she was putting into her mouth, and almost choked. "What did you say?"
Lu Jingxun patiently repeated it again.
He had long since gotten used to it these days.
Jiang Zhiyi is not only clumsy and often confused, but sometimes her ears, eyes, and mouth also don't work properly. In short, she's very troublesome.
Lu Jingxun: "I said I accepted your confession back then. Let's be together. From now on, I'll be your boyfriend."
Although his expression looked affectionate and gentle, there was still a hint of arrogance about him.
Jiang Zhiyi finally understood.
So that's where he was waiting for her.
His sudden change in attitude and his continued attempts to please were all preparations for today's "confession."
Although Jiang Zhiyi didn't know why he suddenly wanted to be with her, and was 200% sure he was up to no good, she wasn't afraid, and even thought it was a good thing.
No matter what he might do to her in the future, she could find a way to deal with it. But right now, she had genuinely received the benefits he had given her, and that was the most important thing.
However, I certainly can't agree to his request so easily.
Jiang Zhiyi sat up straight, staring directly at Lu Jingxun, and said seriously, "That was so long ago. Didn't you reject me last time, and then ignore me for several days in a row? I gave up a long time ago... What I mean is, my confession that day is null and void."
Lu Jingxun frowned slightly and asked in return, "Then what do you mean? You're unwilling?"
Jiang Zhiyi: "No, it's not that... it's just that you have to confess your feelings to me now before I can say yes."
Lu Jingxun sighed helplessly; she had quite a few demands.
What's the difference?
“There is a difference.” Jiang Zhiyi’s attitude was firm, showing no intention of backing down.
Lu Jingxun knew that reasoning with her was completely pointless. Rather than wasting time arguing with her about useless things, only to have her resort to shamelessness and he end up having to compromise anyway, he might as well compromise from the start.
This is the conclusion he has drawn from countless experiences over the past few days.
Lu Jingxun: "Okay, then I'll say it again. I like you, and I know you like me too. Let's be together, okay?"
Jiang Zhiyi rested her chin on her hand, deep in thought. "If you want to be my boyfriend, you have to show some sincerity. You must pass some of my tests."
Lu Jingxun was almost laughing in anger; she really knew how to take advantage of someone's kindness.
"Tell me, and I'll consider it depending on the situation."
“Confessing your feelings is a very important thing, we need to find a nice place... Carry me there.” Jiang Zhiyi said without thinking.
"Carry you?" Lu Jingxun pointed to his legs incredulously.
His leg was injured, and although it has almost fully recovered and he no longer needs crutches, it is still not very convenient for him to carry her.
Jiang Zhiyi didn't care about any of that and said confidently, "Just because your leg is injured doesn't mean you can't carry me. You said yourself that it's almost healed, so why can't I carry you? Is your leg more important or your future girlfriend? If you don't want to carry me, fine. I knew you were lying just now; you weren't being sincere at all!"
