When Chen Lu thought about how he had initially felt guilty, he felt like jumping out of the window.
She was completely outmaneuvered by Liang Zhirou, yet she was still counting money for this fool.
I still remember how I used to fool this simple-minded person as if it were child's play... How did life turn out like this without me even realizing it?
That fool has no sense of martial ethics!
Looking up at Liang Zhirou, he smiled and said, "You like children even more than I thought."
He only asked tentatively that night, but unexpectedly, this simpleton took the opportunity to back down.
This time, Liang Zhirou understood the meaning behind his words and knew that Chen Lu already had an answer in his heart as to whether she was in her safe period at that time.
Now that things had come to this, she had no intention of changing the subject. A faint blush crept onto her cheeks, and her eyes were filled with shyness.
The girl met Chen Lu's gaze, then gradually moved her mouth closer to his ear, biting her lip shyly, and whispered:
"I just... I just like the child that belongs to you and me, the child that's just the two of us, even more than you think."
Chen Lu watched as the two children slowly crawled toward Duo Duo. Every time they got a little closer, Duo Duo would secretly move a little further away to coax them to keep crawling. He couldn't help but smile. "Being pampered by so many people since they were little, they will definitely be happier than us."
"Don't say that."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lu turned his head and saw Liang Zhirou looking at him with an extremely determined gaze.
Seeing her shift her gaze, the girl quickly lowered her head again, fidgeted with her fingers, and muttered softly, "I hope I can make you as happy as our child..."
...
After October, Hangzhou experienced continuous autumn rains, and the weather became increasingly gloomy and cold.
As the two children grew older, Chen Lu was finally able to refocus some of his energy on the company.
The next morning, he, the boss who had long led the way in absenteeism, clocked in for the first time.
With less than three months until the official open beta of "The Gate of the End", we have one last routine meeting with many investors today.
The game's performance is crucial to whether they can break even and even make a profit, so all the investment companies are very concerned and will send people to participate in meetings from time to time, naturally to check on the development progress.
"Hey, who's this? What are you doing at our company?"
As soon as I entered, I heard Lin Miaomiao lean over and make sarcastic remarks.
Chen Lu remained calm and composed, simply offering her a kind smile. "You'll know who I am when you find out your bonus for this month has been completely deducted."
"Please be kind, thank you. I'm saving up to buy a house," Lin Miaomiao replied with a smile.
Chen Lu chuckled and was about to leave when Lin Miaomiao poked his arm twice.
Lin Miaomiao pointed to her neck and grinned mischievously at him, "I suggest you pull your collar up a bit."
Chen Lu glanced at his phone and noticed the two red marks on his neck. He quickly cleared his throat and casually pulled his collar up a little.
That silly guy didn't even think to move to a less conspicuous spot...
"Wow, I didn't know you two were having such a wild time in private." Lin Miaomiao clicked her tongue. "Zhirou takes care of so many chores every day, big and small, and also has to take care of two children with great difficulty. And at night she even has to... Wow, can you be a decent human being?"
Come to think of it, I never expected Liang Zhirou would know how to grow strawberries...
"I haven't been to the company lately because I've been helping take care of my child. Are you trying to teach me how to behave as a decent person?"
"If you, Chen Lu, are a gentleman, then I'm the First Emperor of Qin!"
"I've figured it out, this is just the resentment of a single person." Chen Lu said with disdain, wondering who it was that was cheated out of five hundred yuan by Qin Shi Huang back then.
This guy's intelligence has always been a mystery. When he's smart, his emotional and intellectual intelligence are both high, but when he's stupid, he might even believe that someone is Qin Shi Huang.
Lin Miaomiao scoffed, "I don't care!"
What's there to envy? Growing strawberries can easily lead to blood clots, and if those clots travel through the bloodstream to the brain or heart...
The person died on the spot.
She'll find those cases of people dying from hickeys later and send them to that shameless couple.
"Actually, it's nice to have someone with you."
Chen Lu had always thought that Lin Miaomiao was just like Chen Mo, used to being alone, and couldn't help but mutter a comment.
"So you never knew what illness I had?"
Lin Miaomiao then realized something, but her mind went blank for a moment.
Chen Lu looked at her as if she were an idiot, "You didn't tell me, how would I know?"
"Didn't Zhirou tell you?"
"This is your privacy, why did she tell me?"
"I thought you had asked Zhirou."
“You, the person involved, didn’t even intend to tell me, so why should I go and ask her privately?” Chen Lu said matter-of-factly.
The two chatted for a few minutes, like reciting a tongue twister. Lin Miaomiao remained silent for a long time, and finally just gave him a thumbs up without saying a word.
This couple... are both good people.
She couldn't think of a better adjective for a moment.
"I suddenly have an urge to risk my life for the North Star," Lin Miaomiao said jokingly.
Although this jerk of a boss deducts her wages every day for fun, she is actually quite touched now.
Over the past few years, Chen Lu has been helping her reduce her workload, both openly and secretly. He even found her Xiao Jie as an assistant early on. Although her salary was often deducted, she was still the highest-paid employee at Polaris...
These details led her to subconsciously believe that Chen Lu had learned the specifics from Liang Zhirou long ago.
