Living alone has its advantages; you can't be this clingy at the office or at home like you are now.
Chen Lu pinched the girl's cheek. "Aren't we already together?"
“Yes, that’s why I hope we can stay together like this forever,” Liang Zhirou said softly.
After she finished speaking, she looked up and saw Chen Lu smiling at her, "You're useless, you have no ambition at all."
The girl was displeased and immediately stood up, saying, "If you say that again, I'll... I'll bump into you!"
"If you bump into me again, I'll kiss you."
After being threatened by Chen Lu, Liang Zhirou lost her nerve and timidly moved to the side, looking around before finally disappearing into the kitchen.
"What are you doing?" Chen Lu asked curiously.
"Let me see if you need anything else." Liang Zhirou poked her lips with her index finger, seemingly thinking about something. "I forgot to buy MSG and cumin last time."
She still remembered to cook for Chen Lu every noon, otherwise he would definitely be too busy to eat properly.
It's not like there's no precedent. Even though Chen Lu can cook, she still orders takeout all the time or doesn't eat at all.
"Really, you can stay here every day at noon after school starts. Anyway, I might not come back every day at noon." Chen Lu followed him to the kitchen and said seriously, "Otherwise, you won't even have a place to take a nap. It's not like it's always summer. You'll catch a cold if you sleep in the gazebo."
He was really serious. If Liang Zhirou was afraid to come here because she was afraid of being bullied by him, he could have stayed at the company at noon and not come back.
"It's too early..." Liang Zhirou said somewhat embarrassed.
"It's a nap, not living together!"
Chen Lu continued to try to change her mindset, "You're just here to take a nap, we're completely innocent, what's there to be afraid of?"
Can couples really have a completely innocent relationship?
Liang Zhirou was stunned. How could Chen Lu be so unreasonable? Did he have to have a child before he was considered innocent?
"We just kissed and hugged, nothing else. Of course we're a completely innocent couple."
Chen Lu shrugged. "Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste for me to rent this two-bedroom apartment? That costs a lot of money, especially since it's near the school and the rent is very high."
Chen Lu, who was just showing off that he could earn tens of thousands a month, suddenly started to feel sorry for money again.
Liang Zhirou was taken aback, and inexplicably felt that Chen Lu's words made sense. "Well, okay then. I'll lock the door..."
Although she liked Chen Lu very much, there were some bottom lines she had to uphold. Otherwise, what would happen if they were planning to have a child before they were even married?
Chen Lu's hands always wandered during kisses, forcing her to hold onto his hand the whole time. She didn't believe Chen Lu was a gentleman.
She was willing to believe every word Chen Lu said, except that he was a gentleman.
Hmph, you scoundrel.
"Which room do you want to sleep in?" Chen Lu continued to ask. Actually, the master bedroom and the second bedroom were about the same size. The only difference was that the bed in the master bedroom was a little bigger and of better quality.
The two bedrooms were next to each other, separated only by a wall. Liang Zhirou walked between the two bedrooms, but suddenly felt embarrassed to go in and look. She turned around and asked, "Which bedroom are you sleeping in now?"
Chen Lu pointed to the room on the left, "I slept in the second bedroom."
The master bedroom was reserved especially for you.
"If you just cook for me every noon, I won't charge you rent. Isn't that a great deal?" Chen Lu said with a wicked grin, his calculations clearly in mind.
From the moment this simpleton's heart wavered even slightly, she was destined to fall into the trap Chen Lu had set.
If they were really going to live here together, they should treat it well, even if it was just for lunchtime. So the two of them carefully tidied up the house and made sure everything was in order.
For some reason, I feel more like I'm actually living my life.
Then they worked on it until evening.
......
Because it's been cloudy lately, this place, which should normally be quite bright, is now so dark that we have to turn on the lights.
"I'll cook you dinner before I go back, otherwise you'll definitely order takeout again..."
A girl's soft voice came from the kitchen.
"good."
After Chen Lu finished speaking, he stretched and walked to the balcony. The sudden bright white light in front of him made him pause in surprise.
A few seconds later, a thunderous sound was heard.
It's raining again? It's been raining for days now.
Before long, the view outside became even more spectacular.
There was lightning and thunder outside; anyone who didn't know better would think someone was undergoing tribulation. The frequency of the flashes was frighteningly fast, like a broken light bulb.
At first, the raindrops were blown by the wind and hit the window like bullets, then they turned into a curtain of water, completely blurring the view.
Liang Zhirou wasn't worried at all. She slowly walked up to Chen Lu and said, "Be careful on your way back later."
"...I don't have a car." Chen Lu said blankly, staring at the torrential rain outside the window.
The two of them were stunned.
He doesn't actually have a car right now. Jiang Chao's own car suddenly stalled and he went to get it repaired. He came over early this morning and took his car away.
"Do you have an umbrella?" the girl asked, pursing her lips.
Chen Lu blinked. "No."
Never expect a guy to keep an umbrella at home; guys will go out in the rain anyway.
It might even feel more enjoyable.
Liang Zhirou was too embarrassed to say something like, "Why don't you have your dad bring the car over?" So she could only sit blankly on the sofa, hugging her knees tightly with both hands.
Weak, pitiful, and helpless.
