Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lu Wanggui was stunned for a moment, then he nodded. โHello, CEO Ding.โ freโฏ๐e๐๐ง๐ฐvโฏl.๐๐๐บ
Only then did CEO Ding notice Xiang Xiaoyuan. โThis is?โ
Lu Wanggui smiled and introduced her, โMy wife.โ
CEO Ding was obviously stunned. After a long while, he regained his senses. โCEO Lu, are you married? Why havenโt I heard the news?โ
Lu Wanggui said, โMy wife is low-key. If we have time in the future, we will have a reception. Iโll send you an invitation when the time comes.โ
Xiang Xiaoyuan: โ? ? ?โ
No, I am high-key!
Why did she have to take the blame for not holding a wedding? She didnโt like being the scapegoat!
โAlright, donโt forget about it when the time comes!โ
CEO Ding called the manager and said to Lu Wanggui, โCEO Lu, you and Mrs. Lu can have the private room. Charge it under my name. Donโt stand on ceremony.โ
After the friendly CEO Ding left, Lu Wanggui and Xiang Xiaoyuan entered the exquisitely decorated private room. They looked around and Xiang Xiaoyuan asked, โWho was that person just now?โ
Lu Wanggui, who had always been calm and collected, was stumped. He actually didnโt know how to answer Xiang Xiaoyuanโs question.
This time, Xiang Xiaoyuan was even more curious. Who exactly was CEO Ding? She sat beside him. Her arm was next to his as she asked, โTell me, who is he?โ
Lu Wanggui pinched the bridge of his nose. He was pestered by Xiang Xiaoyuan, so he reluctantly said, โXiao Beiโs first stepfather.โ
Xiang Xiaoyuan was dumbfounded. โ...โ
The atmosphere was strange. Xiang Xiaoyuan let out a dry laugh. โI didnโt expect the two of you to have such a good relationship.โ
Lu Wanggui said, โItโs hard to decline a kind offer.โ
Xiang Xiaoyuan thought of CEO Dingโs personality and immediately understood. โItโs quite amazing.โ f๐ซee๐โฏ๐no๐ฏ๐l.c๐ฐm
She didnโt expect Lu Wanggui to be able to get along with his ex-wifeโs husband. No, it was his ex-wifeโs ex-husband. The two men didnโt even blush when they met. In fact, they were very harmonious. It was as if they could sit down and chat at any time.
Was this how mature men behave?
Did he not feel anything at all?
The waiter came over to take their order. When he asked if there were any dietary restrictions, the waiter looked at Xiang Xiaoyuan. โDo you take vinegar?โ
Xiang Xiaoyuan nodded and realized that Lu Wanggui was staring at her. His expression was the same as before, but Xiang Xiaoyuan felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She kept feeling that Lu Wanggui was looking at her teasingly.
After she realized what was going on, she asked him, โDo you take vinegar?โ
Lu Wanggui looked a little helpless. โUp to you.โ
He meant that he would if she would and vice versa.
Xiang Xiaoyuan: โ...โ
She decisively turned her gaze to the waiter. โAlthough my husband also takes vinegar, letโs not put vinegar in our dishes today. Thank you.โ
The waiter thought that the two of them were rather strange, but he was still very professional and took note of their preference.
After the waiter left, Xiang Xiaoyuan went back to the topic, โHonestly, your relationship with Lu Beiโs first stepfather seems to be quite good.โ
How did he do it? Did he not feel any awkwardness?
Lu Wanggui corrected her. โItโs not good. Itโs just a casual relationship where we greet each other when we meet. Itโs basic courtesy.โ
Xiang Xiaoyuan: โ...โ
Thatโs still very calm.
He doesnโt get jealous and he never loses control?
Was this a mature manโs ability to control his emotions? So boring.
Xiang Xiaoyuan and Lu Wanggui ate in harmony. After all, for Lu Wanggui, it was a luxury for him to get off work early and have dinner outside. It was impossible for him to participate in a coupleโs activities like watching a movie.
After dinner, the two of them prepared to go home. There was some traffic on the way back. When they reached the entrance of Repulse Bay Villa, it was already past eight oโclock. Xiang Xiaoyuan habitually glanced at the convenience store. However, she found that the convenience store that was supposed to be brightly lit was pitch black. She stopped the car and dialed Xu Xiyaoโs number. It was quickly picked up, his breathing was unsteady. โBoss, the power in the store suddenly went out. I just checked. The circuit must have burnt out. I just called the property management. They said that they would send someone over to fix it in half an hour.โ
Xiang Xiaoyuan nodded. โIโll come over right away. Donโt touch the switch. Itโs dangerous.โ
After that, she hung up and unbuckled her seatbelt. Of course, she did not forget about Lu Wanggui, who was sitting in the passenger seat. Before getting out of the car, she bent down and met his gaze. โYou still have to work when you go home, right? Go home first. Donโt worry about me. Iโll go back after Iโve dealt with the matter.โ
Lu Wanggui paused. โOkay.โ
She closed the car door and strode toward the convenience store.
Taking a few steps from the car to the store was enough to make her sweat. Because of the power failure, the usually bright and cool convenience store was like a steamer.. It was so hot that it made one anxious.
