The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 1004 - 402: Song Qiao Dug a Pit and Fell Right Into It Herself

Chapter 1004: Chapter 402: Song Qiao Dug a Pit and Fell Right Into It Herself

Gu Xiyan, perhaps it’s the first time she’s met someone with such a strong presence as Lu Jingchen, was indeed a bit scared. At first, she thought it was Mu Shinian who forgot her keys when she heard the doorbell. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Lu Jingchen standing tall at the entrance, which truly gave her a big fright.

Then, by reflex, Gu Xiyan slammed the door shut with a ’bang’ right in front of her.

Lu Jingchen, standing at the entrance, was just about to step in when the door suddenly slammed in his face. The sound ’bang’ echoed in his ears, and his face turned instantly dark.

Assistant Xue standing to the side didn’t expect this outcome either. It was the first time someone dared to shut the door right in front of their CEO...

Assistant Xue couldn’t help but click his tongue in secret, thinking this young woman is really, incredibly bold?

Lu Jingchen stood there for about half a minute and finally couldn’t hold back his inner doubts. He turned his head towards Assistant Xue and asked, "Do I look that scary?"

Otherwise, why did that Gu Xiyan woman look so terrified upon seeing him and even shut the door?

When Assistant Xue heard his Boss’s question, he froze for a moment. As soon as he reacted, he felt cold sweat start to break out on his back. If he didn’t answer well, he might get his salary deducted or worse. If his answer was too simplistic, and the CEO got unhappy, then he’d be even more doomed.

After thinking carefully, he still couldn’t find the right words. Finally, he bit the bullet and said, "How could that be? Boss, you’re handsome, more good-looking than those male celebrities. Women see you and can’t help but fangirl..."

Assistant Xue wanted to continue with his compliments, but in the next second, he saw his Boss glaring at him, and the words got stuck in his throat, unable to come out.

Finally, under Lu Jingchen’s pressuring gaze, Assistant Xue told the truth, "Actually, Boss, it’s your aura that’s too overpowering..."

Inside the room, after closing the door, Gu Xiyan regretted it.

She indeed got scared by Lu Jingchen’s aura and, in a momentary lapse, shut the door. After closing it, she immediately regretted it but didn’t dare to open the door again.

While she was in a turmoil of thoughts, Song Qiao had just woken up and came out of the room. Lu Wangshu was still asleep inside, and she let him continue sleeping without waking him up.

In the afternoon, she had played with her son until around four o’clock, and only then realized he hadn’t taken a nap. So, she took a nap with him as well.

The sound of Gu Xiyan slamming the door was so loud that it woke her up.

When she came out, she saw Gu Xiyan standing there looking troubled. She yawned but didn’t say anything, perhaps because Gu Xiyan didn’t notice her either.

The foot she had twisted in the morning was fine now, probably thanks to Lu Jingchen, and she felt no pain while walking.

Song Qiao walked directly into the kitchen to pour herself a glass of plain water. Holding the cup, she finally walked over to Gu Xiyan and patted her on the shoulder.

Gu Xiyan was instantly startled and turned her head to see Song Qiao standing behind her, drinking. She couldn’t help but pat her chest, saying, "Sister Qiao, you scared me to death! How come you walk so quietly?"

After taking a few sips of water, Song Qiao felt her throat much better. Her eyes fell on Gu Xiyan, and she said, "What are you thinking here? I walked past you, and you didn’t even notice, so you can’t blame me."

Gu Xiyan immediately thought of Lu Jingchen, whom she had shut outside. Seeing Song Qiao about to sit on the sofa, she quickly walked over to her, "Um, Sister Qiao, I need to tell you something."

Song Qiao made a sound of acknowledgment, still holding her cup.

This cup was something she brought back from Paris, always using it for drinking. Though it didn’t have special designs, she had made it with her daughter at a pottery shop.

It turned out quite well, without a single flaw, just like a store-bought cup.

"Sister Qiao, just now Lu Yulin’s second uncle... which is the CEO of CK Group, knocked on the door. I opened it and, in excitement, closed it again... I... I locked him outside."

Originally intending to sit down for a rest, Song Qiao snapped her head up upon hearing Gu Xiyan’s words, looking at her with disbelief. After moving her red lips and swallowing, she finally asked, "You mean, you locked Lu Jingchen outside?"

Gu Xiyan nodded, her face filled with remorse.

She had been scared by the man’s aura, which made her act so impulsively.

She knew how influential CK Group was globally, and her family’s company was absolutely no match. If Lu Jingchen got angry because of this, would she be doomed from now on?

Thinking about this, Gu Xiyan deeply regretted her actions.

Why did I act so impulsively and shut the door?

Song Qiao heard Gu Xiyan’s words, and instantly a smile appeared on her face. She patted Gu Xiyan on the shoulder and said, "Well done."

Gu Qing suddenly looked up at Song Qiao in front of her, speechless for a moment. With a confused expression, she repeated, "Well done?"

Song Qiao nodded, made a sound in agreement, and then explained, "Honestly, you are definitely the first person brave enough to lock Lu Jingchen outside the door. I once thought about doing that, just shutting the door in front of him directly—how wonderful that would be! Yet over the years, I simply haven’t had the courage, and never expected you’d fulfill my wish."

Not hearing Song Qiao’s words was better, because upon hearing them, Gu Qing instantly felt like crying.

She really got herself into trouble, huh?

She did something even Sister Qiao didn’t dare to do...

When Song Qiao opened the door, Lu Jingchen and Assistant Xue were still there.

Lu Jingchen’s icy expression softened considerably upon seeing Song Qiao appear. Without waiting for Song Qiao to say anything, he stepped inside, and as he passed by Song Qiao, he casually took the water cup from her hand and drank from the spot where she just drank without any reluctance.

Song Qiao hadn’t reacted yet. Raising her head, she saw Lu Jingchen drinking from her water cup, and immediately looked dumbfounded.

Once she regained her senses, she rushed forward to snatch the cup back, retorting angrily, "Lu Jingchen, why are you like this? That’s my cup."

Yet, the man remained unperturbed, coolly saying, "I know it’s your cup."

It was precisely because he knew it was her cup that he drank from it; otherwise, he wouldn’t touch anyone else’s cup, let alone drink from it.

Song Qiao was instantly agitated, gritting her teeth as she retorted, "I just drank from it. Aren’t you disgusted?"

Lu Jingchen answered righteously, "When we kissed, you weren’t disgusted."

Song Qiao heard this, and her eyes widened in shock—never realizing this man could be so shameless.

Suddenly, because of his words, she found herself speechless.

Without looking at Song Qiao anymore, Lu Jingchen scanned the living room but did not see Lu Wangshu’s figure, so he walked towards Song Qiao’s room with confidence, completely ignoring Gu Xiyan who was standing aside anxiously due to what happened earlier.

Song Qiao saw Lu Jingchen heading straight to her room. She paused for ten seconds and then chased after him. As Lu Jingchen was about to open the door, she hurriedly hugged the hand he was about to use to turn the door handle, and lowered her voice, saying, "Lu Jingchen, little Wangshu is not awake yet. You... you better not wake him; let him sleep a while longer here. Why don’t you go back first, and I’ll send him to you later, or let him stay here with me for the night, okay?"

Although she spent a whole day with her son, Song Qiao felt it still wasn’t enough and wanted to keep him by her side.

After hearing Song Qiao’s words, Lu Jingchen paused for a few seconds, ignored her latter request, and instead said, "Later, personally send her back to me?"

Song Qiao didn’t perceive the special implication in this sentence, merely considering that Lu Jingchen agreed to let little Wangshu stay with her a bit longer. She quickly nodded, "Yes, I’ll send Wangshu back later."

Lu Jingchen finally released the door handle, "You said it: tonight you will personally send Wangshu back. Don’t break your word, otherwise, you won’t be able to see your son anymore."

He concluded with a meaningful phrase, "I’ll be waiting for you..."

Barley waiting for Song Qiao to react, he turned to walk toward the door.

Once Lu Jingchen and Assistant Xue left together, Song Qiao gathered her thoughts and realized the meaning of his words, impulsively cursing.

Damn, did she set a trap for herself and stupidly jump into it?

...

The black Maybach quickly drove out of the community. Lu Jingchen sat in the back of the vehicle, a faint smile on his lips. Though not very prominent, it was clear he was in quite a good mood.

With the boss in a good mood, Assistant Xue felt pleasant too; even the air inside the car seemed significantly fresher.

On the way here, Lu Jingchen maintained a cold expression, and the atmosphere in the car wasn’t good, making Assistant Xue dare not say a word while driving, cautious even in his driving.
