Chapter 857 Arranged Marriage, Love Later: The Overbearing CEO (44) "?Boat"



"Chen, Chen, I miss you so much."

Five hours after the surgery, Lu Xingzhou developed a high fever.

Unconscious, she clung to his heavy sleeve, refusing to let him go.

Chen could only sit there, letting him drag her along.

As dawn approached, Shen decided to call Fu Linyuan.

When they go on a mission, they usually change their name for each mission.

When choosing the name Chen Nianzhou, I simply felt that the character "Zhou" sounded nice and looked good, and seemed special compared to all other characters.

So I just ordered this one.

When Shen received the "Shen Nianzhou" ID card, he suddenly realized—

It wasn't the character "舟" (boat) that made him so unforgettable; it was clearly Lu Xingzhou.

The other end took a long time to answer.

When the call connected, Shen heard a slight panting, as if he had just finished something, which made people's imaginations run wild.

Not wanting to spoil someone's good time, he went straight to the point: "President Fu, I would like to ask for leave."

His cover identity this time is Fu Linyuan's special assistant, and the procedures still need to be followed normally.

"Oh? That works too, I'll take a few days."

"One week."

Fu Linyuan was taken aback for a moment: "It's a bit long."

Senior assistants are usually not given such long leave; at most, it's three days.

“Mr. Fu, my friend is sick. He only knows me here, and I want to stay with him for a few more days.”

Chen worked diligently at Fu's company for a year, never engaging in any behavior that violated regulations.

Out of consideration for people's feelings, Fu Linyuan readily granted the leave.

He then immediately hung up the phone and went to find his wife.

… …

After hanging up the phone, Shen saw that Lu Xingzhou had fallen asleep, so she went out to cook some porridge.

She wanted to wait for Lu Xingzhou to wake up so she could feed him something.

This young master, barely in his early twenties, has never suffered such an injury before.

It's also his fault; he was too tired yesterday and didn't even notice that Lu Xingzhou would be following in the car.

Lu Xingzhou's fever had not subsided, but he was a little more awake in the morning. He managed to eat some food and then went back to sleep.

In the afternoon, she mumbled that she was cold.

Chen had no choice but to lie down next to him, pull him into her arms, and hold him tightly.

Lu Xingzhou truly regained consciousness at night.

The basement had no windows, and all the lights were off.

In the pitch-black darkness, nothing seemed to matter except for the heavy breathing.

This gave Lu Xingzhou a feeling of being in another world.

When they were dating, he would sneak into Shen's house in the middle of the night.

She lay down beside him and subtly slipped her hand inside his clothes, moving it around.

Shen is not the type of person who actively flirts; most of the time she is aloof and reserved.

Even though she's eight years older than him, she always blushes and her heart races when he makes her laugh.

Then, with absolute force, she would restrain his mischievous hand and softly call out, "Zhouzhou."

At this point, he would ask, "Uncle Chen? You really don't want me to move around anymore?"

At this moment, Shen would let go of his hand, her ears turning red, and take the initiative to kiss him.

Thinking of this, Lu Xingzhou slowly reached out his hand.

As if possessed, he reached for the heavy clothes.

The slightly warm touch immediately jolted Shen, who was always on guard.

Upon recognizing Lu Xingzhou, he instantly stopped all movement and hugged the person even tighter.

Are you still not awake?

This silly child, why did she follow him to that kind of place?

Lu Xingzhou's hand slowly brushed over the scars on the man's body.

One after another, densely packed.

Because it was in darkness, it was even more terrifying than seeing it with one's own eyes.

Lu Xingzhou knew before that Shen had scars, but he didn't know what kind of injury caused them.

It only dawned on me now that it was a gunshot wound.

He remembered that Shen had once drunk himself into a stupor and mumbled something to him.

“Zhouzhou, remember, never get involved with drugs. My parents died because of drugs, right in front of me. I will never forgive drug lords for the rest of my life.”

"If I die one day, never look for me, don't be sad for me, and never mention my name to anyone. You must remember this, never, never, never."

But when they broke up, Shen said that his family was pressuring him to get married and that he should bring a girlfriend.

Perhaps he was really drunk and forgot what he had said?

They can't even make up such a clumsy lie.

It was precisely because of this doubt that Lu Xingzhou willingly waited for two years for Chen to settle down.

Lu Xingzhou felt himself being hugged tighter, and his eyes involuntarily became a little wet.

He said, "Why do you have so many injuries again?"
