Chapter 227: Fish on the hook, vegetables in the pot, pigs in the trap
The first thing Lu Shiman did when she got in the car was to bury her head in the crook of Ji Lin's neck and sniff him to her heart's content.
"From this morning till now, all day long, I haven't smelled your scent." Lu Shiman rubbed his neck.
Then he moved his position and buried it in his chest.
Ji Linshen was no longer surprised by her puppy-like behavior and would even actively cooperate with her.
After smelling the scent, Lu Shiman contentedly leaned on his arms and played with his fingers: "Why don't you ask me why I'm having dinner with Brother Feather?"
"However, I would have told you even if you didn't ask me." She took Ji Linshen's hand and bit the back of his hand.
"He used my third brother's embarrassing photos in exchange for me having me as his sister to have a meal with him."
"Are you curious about Third Brother's embarrassing photos?"
Ji Linshen listened to her chattering, his heart feeling like it was immersed in melted syrup.
"But why do you call him Fifth Brother?" Lu Shiman turned her head to look at Ji Linshen, and was caught off guard by his eyes full of doting.
Her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. She was stunned by the beautiful face and the captivating eyes.
"After having a meal with Xie Yi, you don't recognize your boyfriend anymore?" Ji Lin laughed briefly, his hand unconsciously pinching her earlobe and twisting it.
It was obviously an ordinary smile, but Lu Shiman was still hooked by it. She pursed her lips and swallowed her saliva. She stared straight at Ji Linshen, as if teasing him with her eyes.
Ji Linshen really enjoyed her gaze, the look that seemed to want to tear him apart made him feel happy both physically and mentally.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Ji Linshen leaned back in his chair, tilted his head slightly, blinked his eyes, and looked at her with a smile: "Do you like it?" His voice rose slightly, with a mischievous smile and temptation.
Lu Shiman blushed so much that even his breathing became disordered.
"Do you want a kiss then?"
Licking her lips, her throat tightened a little: "Just... just for once?"
Ji Linshen chuckled briefly, and then said in a doting tone, "A few times is fine."
In one word, the soul is gone.
She felt like a fish on the hook, a dish in the pot, and a pig in a trap.
The corners of his eyes drooped slightly, and the street lights were imprinted in his eyes like tiny stars. The curve of his mouth just happened to catch the falling neon lights.
The moment Leng Yu felt dizzy, she lowered her eyes and looked charming in the fleeting light. Lu Shiman finally understood what it meant to be charming with a smile.
Holding Ji Linshen's face with both hands, she slowly moved closer and kissed him lightly on the corner of his lips: "Ji Linshen, do you know how attractive you are?"
"How tempting?" He stared at her leisurely, asking knowingly.
"You're so tempting that I want to strip you naked and ravage you." After she said that, she bit his lower lip and gnawed it gently.
He clasped the back of her head with his hands, turning passivity into initiative. As their lips met, a word escaped from the corner of her lips.
She said: "Ji Linshen, I like you so much~"
The car was warm and cozy, while the world outside became bloody because of two gossips.
After Xie Yi finished, on the way home, the more he thought about it, the more beautiful and enjoyable it became.
Not only was Lu Shiman calling him Fifth Brother, but Ji Linshen also called him Fifth Brother.
He was so happy, but the only pity was that he forgot to record Ji Linshen's call of "Fifth Brother".
Xie Yi forwarded the recording to all his friends in the circle, including the four brothers of the Lu family.
As promised, he sent all of Lu Jianheng's embarrassing photos to Lu Shiman.
Today is a really good day for Xie Yi.
"Old Chen, it's a good day, let's be festive." Xie Yi leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
The phone kept vibrating in his suit pocket. He picked it up and saw that it was a series of 60-second voice messages from Lu Jianheng.
He didn't even bother to listen, so he put it back in his pocket and hummed along with the music: "Today is a good day, everything you want will come true~"
Xie Yi, hehe, Xie Yi is happy!
The next afternoon, at Longley Bowling Green.
The cold light from the lane reflected Lu Yannan's tense waistline, and he swung the bowling ball with his backhand.
As the twelve pins fell over, the automatic pin-setting machine in the back row made a mechanical humming sound.
"Mr. Lu, that's a beautiful skewer shot!" The female customer, wrapped tightly in a cashmere shawl, applauded, her nail polish gleaming pearlescently under the spotlight. "If I were 20 years younger, I'd definitely chase Mr. Lu."
"Our President Lu has been at the top of the list of 'Jincheng's Most Wanted Marriage' for several years in a row." Others echoed.
"My nephew is naturally excellent. It's also because I don't have a daughter, otherwise, I would have brought him home to be my son-in-law long ago." Shen Liangchuan smiled.
Lu Yannan chuckled and responded to the joke: "If you praise me again, I will order a ten-kilogram ball."
As everyone laughed, a muffled sound of ditch cleaning suddenly came from the next lane.
"I heard that Lu Er will participate in the Asian Tour in his later years?" The boss in a turtleneck sweater rubbed the anti-slip powder.
"Everyone in the Lu family is a dragon and a phoenix. Miss Lu is still with Ji..."
"Ahem." Someone immediately interrupted the topic.
Lu Yannan was fine with it, and admitted openly: "My sister is in a relationship with President Ji."
The expressions of everyone present, except Shen Liangchuan, were somewhat profound.
"Master Lu's brothers and sisters are really good. All four of his brothers are so outstanding."
Four younger brothers?
"Yes, I never thought that Mr. Xie is Mr. Lu's younger brother."
"Xie Yi?" Lu Yannan was a little confused about their test.
Shen Liangchuan sat down and looked at Lu Yannan: "Yannan, there is no need to hide it. Everyone in Jincheng knows it now."
Lu Yannan was even more confused. What was he hiding?
The others have already started gossiping.
The nature of human beings is like civets, looking for melons everywhere.
"Mr. Xie seems to be younger than Mr. Lu. Is he the fifth child in the Lu family?"
"Then the Xie family didn't want a child of their own?"
"I guess she's infertile."
"Hey, but I think the Xie family cares a lot about Xie Yi, just like they treat him as their own son."
"Yes, Xie Yi was well raised by the Xie family, although not..."
Lu Yannan captured the key words and quickly put them together, and he had a general idea of what was going on.
Does this mean that Xie Yi is not the Xie family's biological child, but was adopted from their Lu family?
Why did these people believe such an outrageous rumor?
He wanted to explain and ask the source of the rumor, but he didn't find the chance until he finished and left.
In the parking lot, Lu Yannan asked his assistant to stop Shen Liangchuan’s car.
Shen Liangchuan lowered the car window: "Yannan, let's talk about the project after the New Year. The relevant departments have already suspended it before the New Year..."
"Uncle Shen, this is not a project. I'm asking how this rumor about the Xie family came about?" It was a bit too nonsensical.
Shen Liangchuan frowned and thought for a long time: "I forgot who told me this, but anyway, this is no longer a secret."
“Good boy, you even hid it from your uncle Shen.”
Watching Shen Liangchuan's car drive away, Lu Yannan stood there in a daze for a long time.
Who is the wicked person who spreads such rumors? Isn't this trying to sow discord between the Lu and Xie families?
