As soon as Xia Zimo finished speaking, she saw Lu Jingheng put the sandwich in his mouth and finish it all.
She was a little surprised. She had known him for so many years and knew that he was quite picky about food.
Moreover, he is a germaphobe.
She couldn't help but glance at Xu Rubao. Why would Aheng let her come to his private villa? What was it about her that attracted him so much?
Is it because she's ugly?
Xia Zimo didn't believe this reason. Even as a woman, she wouldn't want to give someone who looked like that a second glance.
Here, Xu Rubao brought out a fruit platter. "Mr. Lu, Ms. Xia, please enjoy your meal."
Xia Zimo glanced at the fruit, then at Xu Rubao, and lost all appetite.
"Aheng, let's go out for lunch together. It's been a long time since we ate together."
Xia Zimo's voice was soft and sweet, sounding like she was being coquettish.
Xu Rubao felt like a third wheel standing there, so she silently went into the kitchen.
Seeing that the little wildcat didn't react at all, Lu Jingheng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, let's have lunch together. Let her cook."
When Xia Zimo heard that Xu Rubao was to cook, her initially cheerful mood immediately soured.
However, she restrained herself very well.
"Aheng, won't this make things too hard for her?"
"I invited her back in the first place, this is what she should do, what's the trouble?"
Hearing Lu Jingheng say that, Xia Zimo felt a little better. "Okay, I'd like to have steak for lunch, is that alright?"
Lu Jingheng nodded. "Xu Rubao, did you hear that? Zimo wants to eat steak."
Xu Rubao felt a little embarrassed. She had never cooked steak before, but she knew how to cook some home-style dishes.
She nodded reluctantly, "Okay, I heard you."
She went into the kitchen, first taking the steak out of the freezer to thaw, and then quickly went online to look up how to cook steak.
She always thought eating Western food was troublesome, with knives and forks, and that chopsticks were much more convenient.
Outside the living room, Xia Zimo took out the coffee beans she had brought and noticed a backpack on the sofa.
She raised an eyebrow slightly, walked over, unzipped the zipper, and with a flick of her wrist, all the books inside fell out.
"Ah Heng, how did you get something like this here? It's filthy..."
She picked up a book at random; it was a medical book.
Upon hearing Xia Zimo's voice, Xu Rubao quickly ran out of the kitchen and saw her books scattered messily on the floor.
"Miss Xia, I'm sorry, these are mine, I'll take them away quickly."
After saying that, Xu Rubao quickly bent down to pick up the book.
These books are very important to her.
Xia Zimo watched her squatting there tidying up. Her hands looked quite fair and delicate. She smiled slightly and stepped on them.
Xu Rubao felt the pain and couldn't help but scream.
Hearing her scream, Lu Jingheng quickly came over.
Xia Zimo seized the opportunity and suddenly slumped onto the sofa, saying, "What's wrong with you, girl? You almost tripped me."
Xu Rubao was stunned by Xia Zimo's words. How could her acting be so good? When did she trip her? She was the one who stepped on the back of her hand.
Lu Jingheng walked over and saw Xu Rubao squatting on the ground. "How do you do your job? Did I hire you for free?"
Xu Rubao quickly put the book away and stuffed it into her bag. "I'm sorry, Miss Xia..."
Being under someone's roof, she always knew how to read people's expressions. Not knowing if it was her fault, she quickly lowered her head and apologized.
