Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 979 - 976: Your Voice Is So Quiet—Are You With a Man?

"Watching the door... eh, are you done with the paperwork?"

"Yeah. Let’s go."

"Oh."

The two walked into the elevator one after the other, then walked out one after the other.

When Nangong Xuan opened the door to the room, Lu Xinyun stood at the doorway with her luggage, refusing to move.

"Come in." Nangong Xuan opened the door and stood to the side.

Lu Xinyun hesitated for a moment, shook her head, "I think I’ll stay out, just put your things away and we can leave."

He raised an eyebrow, leaning against the wall, watching her with interest, "Are you afraid of me?"

She was stunned for a moment and quickly shook her head, "No, it’s just that it’s about time... later on..." She paused, as if recalling something, "Oh no, I promised to go with Shuang’er tonight."

Nangong Xuan listened, his expression unreadable, "Relax, it’s just a half-hour break. If I wanted to do anything to you, I would have been disrespectful three years ago."

Lu Xinyun’s face turned bright red, unable to come up with a retort, she had to follow him into the room.

But as soon as the door closed, she regretted it. Because she saw Nangong Xuan pull out two pieces of clothing from the luggage and throw them on the bed, then chose a pair of underwear and headed to the bathroom.

Hearing the sound of running water from the bathroom, Lu Xinyun deeply regretted her decision.

Although he said nothing would happen, her thoughts would wander, especially now that they were alone in a room, and one of them was taking a shower. Even if she were a fool, she could catch a whiff of ambiguity.

Just as she was hesitating whether to wait for him by the door, her phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, her hand shook and she dropped the phone.

Lu Xinyun took a deep breath, picked up the phone, and pressed the answer button.

"Hello~"

"Sis, my dear sister, you could have given me a heads-up, you know? I’m already at the airport and then you message me saying you left early. Isn’t this messing with me?"

Lu Xinyun felt a bit guilty, "Xing’er..."

"Alright, alright, I won’t hold it against you. But your voice is so low, you aren’t with a man, are you?"

Lu Xinyun: "..."

"Not saying anything means I guessed right. If you don’t want me to tell Dad about this, you’d better come clean!"

"Lu! Xing! Chen!" Lu Xinyun squeezed out each word through clenched teeth, "I’ll change your name later. Don’t share my character, it’s embarrassing."

"Haha, sis, your Chinese isn’t up to par. My ’Xing’ and your ’Xin’ are different. You should consult a dictionary when you have time."

"..."

"Alright then, I’ll give you a day to think about it. Goodbye."

Beep beep beep~

Lu Xinyun wished she could reach through the phone, grab Xing’er by the collar, and hang him against the wall to beat him up.

Hung up again!

The second time she got hung up on today!

The sound of the bathroom door opening caught her attention, and she looked over to see Nangong Xuan wearing nothing but a towel. Water droplets slowly traced along the V-line of his abdomen, making his robust physique clearly defined.

Lu Xinyun forced herself to look away, coughing lightly, "Can we set off now?"

"No rush." He sat at the foot of the bed, water dripping from his hair. Suddenly, he reached out to her, "Come here, help me dry my hair."

Lu Xinyun looked at him as if she had seen a ghost. If she was just nervous before, now she was certain Nangong Xuan intended to do something to her.
