"You're so boring. It's so boring to talk to you." Seeing Lu Zhuo's taciturn appearance, Old Master Lu shook his head in boredom, looking at him with some disdain and said, "With your quiet and taciturn personality, to be honest, if it weren't for your good looks, I'm afraid no girl would like you."
Lu Zhuo: ...
After complaining about him, Old Master Lu looked at the time. It was already five in the afternoon, so he picked up his phone and called Second Master Lu. When the call was connected, he didn't wait for the other party to speak before saying, "Are you coming back for dinner tonight? If you do, I can ask Aunt Zhang to prepare more."
Mr. Lu had a head injury, and fearing that his father would be worried if he saw it, he said, "Dad, I have something to do tonight, so I won't be back for dinner."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Lu didn't say anything else and hung up the phone. It was better for him not to come back for dinner. It would be convenient for them to talk since there were only three of them at home.
Old Master Lu only called Master Lu Er to ask about it. As for Madam Lu Er and Lu Huaian and his mother, Old Master Lu didn't even call them.
This mother and son made him so angry that he went to the hospital this morning. He scolded them both and they would definitely not come back for dinner today to cause trouble.
Because Jiang Taohua was here, Old Master Lu asked Aunt Zhang to prepare a very sumptuous table of dishes.
At dinner that night, Old Master Lu smiled and said to Jiang Taohua, "Tao girl, I don't know your taste, so I asked Aunt Zhang to prepare a little bit of each flavor. Please eat as much as you can. Don't be polite. Just treat this place as your own home and don't be restrained."
"Okay." Jiang Taohua nodded with a smile.
Neither Old Master Lu nor Lu Zhuo likes to talk while eating, so they ate in silence during this meal.
After dinner, Jiang Taohua accompanied Old Master Lu for a walk in the yard to help digest the food. The two of them talked and laughed in harmony.
Lu Zhuo stood in the corridor, watching this scene with deep eyes. His grandfather really liked this woman...
Jiang Taohua accompanied Old Master Lu for a walk to help him digest his food, and then chatted with him for a while before saying goodbye to him: "Grandpa Lu, it's getting late, I'll go back first."
Old Master Lu was reluctant to let Jiang Taohua chat, so he said to her: "Tao girl, we have many empty rooms at home. Why don't you stay at our house tonight? Stay here and sleep. Grandpa Lu still wants to chat with you."
He really likes chatting with her. Although this girl looks young, she knows everything you talk about, including history, tea culture, military culture, and all kinds of miscellaneous things. She is really a treasure girl.
"No, Grandpa Lu has some things to deal with at home. Let's talk another day." Jiang Taohua politely rejected his proposal, wanting to keep a proper distance from Lu Zhuo, otherwise Lu Zhuo would think that she had impure motives towards him.
Although her motives were impure, she would not show any affection for Lu Zhuo until she won his heart, so as not to encourage his arrogance.
Old Master Lu was a little disappointed, but he nodded and said, "Well, since you want to go back, Grandpa Lu won't force you. We'll talk another day."
After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Taohua to answer, he looked at Lu Zhuo, who had been sitting opposite him in silence, and ordered: "It's too late. It's not safe for a little girl like Tao to go back. You take her back."
Lu Zhuo nodded without hesitation.
Seeing that he agreed so readily, Old Master Lu's face suddenly became smiling. He thought, he suggested that this brat take Tao Yatou home, and this brat did not refuse, and did not suggest that the family driver take Tao Yatou home. It seems that this boy will have a chance with Tao Yatou in the future.
Jiang Taohua did not refuse Lu Zhuo's offer to take her home, and followed Lu Zhuo into his car.
The front passenger seat has a good view, and Jiang Taohua likes to sit in it. She sat directly in Lu Zhuo's front passenger seat. After getting in the car, she fastened her seat belt consciously without Lu Zhuo's reminder.
After fastening his seat belt, Lu Zhuo drove away. Lu Zhuo didn't like listening to music while driving, so he didn't play any songs. He didn't speak, and Jiang Taohua didn't speak either. The car was very quiet.
After a long silence, Lu Zhuo spoke, "Miss Jiang, are you interested in being my wife?"
Lu Zhuo thought, Grandpa likes Jiang Taohua, and he... doesn't seem to hate Jiang Taohua very much. Maybe he can marry her and make Grandpa happy.
Hearing this, Jiang Taohua raised her eyebrows and looked sideways at Lu Zhuo. His face was serious, his eyes dark and deep, and it seemed that he had made such a decision after careful consideration. She curled her red lips and refused, "Mr. Lu, I have no interest in you."
Lu Zhuo looked like he disliked her this morning, but now he suddenly proposed that she be his wife. He must have seen that Old Master Lu liked her, and made such a decision just to please Old Master Lu. She didn't want that. What she wanted was that Lu Zhuo truly liked her and wanted to marry her, not to marry her just to please Old Master Lu.
Lu Zhuo, who was rejected when he proposed to a woman for the first time: ...
When Jiang Taohua looked at him, she was neither humble nor arrogant, her eyes were calm, without a trace of admiration. Lu Zhuo knew that Jiang Taohua didn't like him, and he had long expected that Jiang Taohua would reject his ridiculous request. Although he was mentally prepared for her to reject him without hesitation, he still felt a little uncomfortable when she directly rejected him. This was the first time in his life that he experienced the feeling of frustration.
The atmosphere was quiet for a while, and then Lu Zhuo said, "Miss Jiang, you and I have known each other for a short time. I know that you will reject my sudden request, but you have also seen that my old man likes you very much. He is in poor health and needs to be happy every day.
So I'd like to ask Miss Jiang to agree to my request and be my fake husband and wife for two years. When you find someone you like, I will divorce you, give you freedom, and give you a generous salary that will allow you to live comfortably for the rest of your life."
