Chapter 662 Is it you?
Only then did Shen Zheng realize that Lu Dai was two years younger than him. Normally, she held her own in front of him and was always in control of everything, so it was difficult for him to remember this.
When the plane was about to land, Chen Zheng woke Lu Dai up. He pushed her shoulders twice, and after she opened her eyes, he couldn't help but pinch one of her cheeks.
Although they had slept together many times, it was the first time that Chen Zheng pinched her face. Although this action did not reach the level of intimacy in the physical sense, it had different meanings for both of them.
So, Lu Dai was also confused for a few seconds. She rarely felt like this.
Seeing her like this, Shen Zheng felt fresh and raised the corner of his mouth, "It's almost landing, wake up first."
Lu Dai heard his voice and came back to her senses. She brushed away his hand on her face and said, "Don't pinch my face. Are you teasing a three-year-old?"
Shen Zheng: "Your skin is pretty good."
Lu Deke didn't think it was a compliment: "After sleeping in the same bed for more than half a year, you realize that it's hard to say who is the bigger loser between us."
Shen Zheng coughed and wanted to explain, but in the end he wisely chose to remain silent.
However, Lu Dai has never been a person who makes unreasonable demands. What she said just now was just a casual joke, and she got over it. She took off her neck pillow, folded the blanket, and quickly tidied herself up.
The flight landed at 12 noon. The hotel arranged a car to pick us up and we returned quickly.
Lu Dai and Shen Zheng booked a family suite, and each room was equipped with a dedicated staff member. Shortly after the two came up, the staff came and knocked on the door.
At that time, Lu Dai was drinking water, so Shen Zheng went forward to open the door.
When the door opened and he saw the figure standing at the door, his pupils suddenly tightened and his originally relaxed expression became much more serious.
Cen looks like snow.
Why is she here?
Cen Sixue didn't expect that she would run into Shen Zheng less than a week after joining the company - this was a family suite, definitely not one that was lived in alone. She subconsciously looked past Shen Zheng and saw Lu Dai.
Cen Sixue's first reaction was to leave, "I'll go find another colleague."
"It's you?" Before she could leave, Lu Dai came over.
Lu Dai was curious because she saw Chen Zheng standing at the door for a long time. When she came up and saw Cen Sixue, she understood what was going on.
Cen Sixue was wearing the hotel's work clothes, and it was obvious that she was the exclusive housekeeper arranged by the hotel - it was really a melodramatic story.
After the lawsuit ended, Lu Dai no longer paid attention to Cen Sixue's movements, nor did she bother to investigate her.
I didn't expect to meet you at this time.
"Sorry, I'll switch with my colleague." Cen Sixue explained to Lu Dai and prepared to leave.
"It's okay, no need to bother. Just help me reserve a table at the restaurant and I'll be there in half an hour." Lu Dai smiled generously, "Thank you."
Cen Sixue nodded, agreed, and left in a hurry.
Lu Dai glanced at Chen Zheng beside her and found that he was still staring at the direction where Cen Sixue left. She simply stopped talking to him and turned back to the room.
Shen Zheng quickly came to his senses, closed the door, and followed Lu Dai's pace.
Lu Dai went to the bedroom to pack clothes. Shen Zheng squatted down to help her. While hanging clothes for her, he explained: "I didn't know she was here, you..."
"I know." Lu Dai said indifferently, "If you knew she was here, you wouldn't have brought me here."
This doesn't sound right no matter how you look at it.
Shen Zheng stared at her: "Let's change hotels."
"No need." Lu Dai shook her head.
Shen Zheng was not sure: "You really don't mind?"
Lu Dai: "What do you mind?"
She asked with a half-smile, "Does she mind that your eyes are always glued to her?"
Shen Zheng choked, and this time he was finally sure that she was angry - because he had just stared at Cen Sixue for too long.
He was just too surprised.
The last time they met, he gave Cen Sixue a sum of money, enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life. Why did she go out to work again?
Still in Hong Kong City, she had never lived here before.
He had too many questions in his mind, and his eyes were unconsciously fixed on her. Even if he had no other intentions, it would change in Lu Dai's eyes.
It’s not Lu Dai’s fault for thinking too much. He really has a long criminal record. No one would be able to remain calm after seeing the scene just now.
"I lost my composure just now. I'm sorry." Shen Zheng said, "Let's change hotels."
"No, it's fine here." Lu Dai refused again.
Before Shen Zheng could continue to persuade her, Lu Dai said to him, "I don't like hiding. Since you said you don't have any other feelings, why bother with this? It will only make people think that you haven't let go."
Shen Zheng: “…”
"Please help me put away the boxes, thank you. After that, come downstairs to eat." Lu Dai got up from the ground and instructed Shen Zheng naturally.
Her expression and tone were the same as usual, with no obvious emotions. Shen Zheng still felt uneasy. He raised his head and stared at her for a while before closing the box and putting it away.
Lu Dai watched him put the two boxes in the corner, then turned and walked out.
Shen Zheng followed closely, took the room card, and walked towards the elevator with her.
The hotel restaurant was on the third floor. When the two of them came down, it was already past the lunch rush hour and there were not many people in the lobby, so Lu Dai simply found a seat in the lobby.
After they were seated, a waiter came over to hand over the menu. Shen Zheng took it and ordered a few of Lu Dai's favorite dishes.
The food was served very quickly. In less than ten minutes, the snacks arrived.
Before Lu Dai could pick up her chopsticks, Chen Zheng had already picked up a steamed bun for her.
Lu Dai raised her eyes, met his, and laughed: "I'm not angry, you don't have to be so cautious."
Shen Zheng: "My conscience is uneasy."
Lu Dai: "Did I get it right?"
Shen Zheng shook his head. Seeing that she started talking, he took the initiative to explain: "I'm just surprised that she is here."
"The last time she returned to North City, I gave her some money." This was the first time Shen Zheng confessed this to Lu Dai.
As Shen Zheng spoke, he observed Lu Dai's expression, but she didn't seem surprised, nor did she seem angry. She just nodded and said, "It's my duty."
Shen Zheng: "Don't you have anything else to ask?"
Lu Dai: "You have your reasons for handling it this way. I don't have any questions."
Shen Zheng: “…”
Lu Dai: "People and things that you have truly let go of don't need proof. If you still want to prove it, it means you haven't let go."
With just one sentence, she blocked any explanation he wanted to make.
Shen Zheng took a deep breath and said, "Hug..."
"Okay, stop apologizing." Lu Dai put a quick-fried bun on his plate. "I know you won't do anything rash. Just act normal from now on, or she'll be stressed too."
Hearing that Lu Dai was still thinking about Cen Sixue, Shen Zheng's mood became more complicated, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Lu Dai is not only smart and insightful, but also kind - she has thought about problems from Cen Sixue's perspective more than once.
