Did Lu Boyan find out the fact that she was extremely young and beautiful ages ago?

Su Jianan felt extremely flattered.

“Then you still stare at me in this way?” She smiled more brightly and brilliantly, “Do you… Ah?”

Before she finished her words, Lu Boyan had pulled her up and took her away.

Lu Boyan got long legs. The steps he took were big. Only via trotting that Su Jianan was able to catch up with his paces. She asked him hurriedly, “Where are we going now?”

“To get changed.” Lu Boyan was always that concise and comprehensive.

“Do we stop playing tennis?” Su Jianan just got her muscles stretched and limbered up. The motor cells inside her body just woke up. She felt that it was not satisfying to end the game in this way.

“Change your clothing and I will accompany you if you want to continue playing tennis.” Lu Boyan did not allow others to put in a word.

Su Jianan did not understand how her clothing had irritated Lu Boyan. But she still did what she had been told obediently.

However, in the end, she took a shower conveniently while getting dressed. After getting the shower done, she felt refreshed and comfortable while she was in a draught. All of a sudden, she did not want to sweat. So she told Lu Boyan that she did not want to play tennis.

Lu Boyan indulged her unexpectedly and he only said, “OK, then we will not play tennis.”

She held his arms happily, “Where have Xiaoxi and Qinwei gone?”

Lu Boyan said, “They are both at the restaurant. Should we go there for meals also?”

There were three restaurants which were of Chinese, Western and French styles in the clubhouse. While for Luo Xiaoxi and Qinwei, they were at the Chinese restaurant.

The Chinese restaurant was not large. It was decorated elegantly and of low profile. The jasmine in the corner of the wall was right at the flowering phase. The small and white flower sent forth slight fragrance on its own under the sunlight which was shining in. The fancy carp swam merrily in the shallow pond outside the window. The pink lotus bloomed one after another over the surface of the water, which had set off the old-fashioned abundance of this restaurant.

Luo Xiaoxi came here together with Qin Wei and Shen Yuechuan. She and Shen Yuechuan were not really familiar. However, being an extremely naughty person, she had made herself well acquainted with Shen Yuechuan via a few words. Those several young people chatted randomly and got rid of those burdensome business affairs and project planning temporarily. The atmosphere around the dining table was extremely relaxing.

Seeing that Lu Boyan and Su Jianan had also arrived, Shen Yuechuan ordered the waiter to get the dishes served up. In the end, he turned his head and said to Lu Boyan, “It was Xiaoxi who had ordered all the dishes. According to her saying, she had ordered many dishes which were Jianan’s favorites.”

Hearing that, Luo Xiaoxi knocked on the table and said solemnly, “Na, Boss Lu now is my boss. Boss, you can regard my action as — fawning.”

Lu Boyan figured out Luo Xiaoxi’s implications and he asked then, “What do you want?”

Luo Xiaoxi said smilingly, “I know that it will be Lu Enterprises’ tenth-anniversary celebration in a few days’ time. Not to mention other things, anyhow, I am the actor of Lu Enterprises. Could you give me an invitation card?”

There were numerous actors under Lu Enterprises Media. While as for the grand event like Lu Enterprises’ tenth anniversary, only the currently popular and well-known actors like Han Ruoxi could be qualified to be invited to attend.

Luo Xiaoxi’s intention to attend the event was purposeful. If she had asked Su Jianan to talk to Lu Boyan about this, Lu Boyan probably would have agreed. But she did not want to put Su Jianan in a difficult position, she raised it up by herself to her boss.

However, being the type of people who were businesslike, Lu Boyan might not grant her request.

But he just gave Su Jianan a glimpse and then said, “I will let someone send the invitation card to you tomorrow.”

It seemed that Luo Xiaoxi dared not to believe the fortune had befallen her so suddenly. She smiled and gesture a victorious sign towards Su Jianan.

The dishes were served up one after another. As expected, there were several dishes which Su Jianan had loved so much that she won’t let them escape from her mouth. Knowing her taste well, Lu Boyan refilled her bowl and said, “Since we have nothing to do in the afternoon, you can enjoy your meal.”

Su Jianan asked and ate meanwhile, “Then what are we going to do this afternoon?”

“We are going to discuss things. You and Xiaoxi can make your own arrangement, hum?”

Upon finishing his words, he then refilled Su Jianan’s bowl again with her most favorite BBQ Pork with Honey Sauce.

Tilting her head, Su Jianan stared at him for a while, “Alright. It happens that I would like to chat with Xiaoxi. Will we go home once you have finished the discussion?”

The last sentence hit just right at the softest part of Lu Boyan’s heart. He replied with a “Hum”. The radian of the corner of his tip also became mild.

Other people all made their efforts to pretend eating or chatting normally, except Mu Sijue who was totally shocked by the fact that how accessible Lu Boyan was upon the side of flattery.

He knew the fact that Lu Boyan indulged Su Jianan. But he thought that was only in private. He now did not even bother to cover it up with so many outsiders’ presence, did he?

Shen Yuechuan replied with two “Ho Ho”, “I have been surprised at nothing.”

Mu Sijue rubbed his temples. As the saying goes, even heroes would become prisoners of beauty. So it would be best not to have their passions aroused by beauty, which was just the way he did.

Upon finishing the meal, the men went to discuss the things. Lu Boyan ordered a lobby for Luo Xiaoxi and Su Jianan, let someone send the fruit compote and dessert over to them, which was to help them kill the time casually.

The beautiful and delicious dessert was placed on the delicate three-layered snack stand. The black tea gave the gentle and warm fragrance off gently. The seasonal fruits on the fruit compote were fresh and plump. Outside the French windows, the trees made a pleasant shade. All of these could get people in a good mood instantly. But Luo Xiaoxi sighed and ate meanwhile.

Knowing why she was sighing, Su Jianan said, “I know you did not do it on purpose.”

“But Su Yicheng would definitely think that I had done it on purpose.” Luo Xiaoxi took a bite at the Maracon, “Shit, if I had really intended to make Zhang Mei leave after being wounded that much, I would not have caused a lot of trouble to beat her with the tennis ball! I would have directly bumped into her while driving the car when she was still in the car!”

Su Jianan was speechless for a while and said, “Well, by the way, I can not figure out the relationship between them. What about you?”

Having been going after Su Yicheng for more than ten years, Luo Xiaoxi had been disgraced for numerous times. However, she had consequently trained out with a special skill – as long as she gave the woman beside Su Yicheng a look, she could distinguish the relationship between Su Yicheng and the woman.

“He and Zhang Mei were pretty ambiguous. I am not sure whether they have already got the thing done, but they will… get it done one day sooner or later.” Luo Xiaoxi’s voice was downcasted. She covered her face and said, “Jianan, I feel a bit tired.”

One after another, the women by Su Yicheng’s side came and went, which she had seen so much.

Over more than ten years, it was the first time that Su Jianan had heard Luo Xiaoxi saying she was tired. She asked, “Do you want to give up?”

It was after a long time that Luo Xiaoxi removed her hands from the face and smiled at Su Jianan, “Don’t worry. I have been persistent for that many years and I won’t give up that easily in this way! I must win Su Yicheng’s heart!”

After a long time, when Luo Xiaoxi found out that life would be this helpless, this sentence would become her deeply haunting nightmare. Every time when she thought of this sentence, she would rather travel through the time and throttle her at this time to the death.

Su Jianan just knew that Luo Xiaoxi would not admit being beaten that easily, “Anyway, as for the fact that you are going to attend the Lu Enterprises’s tenth-anniversary celebration, you do it for more than just simply playing, don’t you?”

“Of course!” Luo Xiaoxi said, “I am fighting to be the female companion of your brother!”

Su Jianan said, “Then what about Qin Wei? What should he do?”

“Who cares. The things he lacks the least were the female companions.” Luo Xiaoxi said, “The reason why I came here together with him today is completely due to the fact that my father had coerced me forcibly. However, if I had not come here, I would not have known that I had got another new rival in love. So my father had coerced me in such a right way!”

Su Jianan did not know whether to laugh or cry. Luo Xiaoxi was just that good at self-consolation. But it was also because of this special skill that she could be faced with Su Yicheng’s refusal which lasted for more than ten years calmly and she still would not be willing to give up.

The whole afternoon just slipped by in this way. People would feel the sun setting down westwards more clearly while on the top of the mountain. After the men had finished discussing their things, the single ones took their leave early. Lu Boyan and Qin Wei came to the lobby to pick up Su Jianan and Luo Xiaoxi.

Qin Wei held Luo Xiaoxi’s hands and left first, while Su Jianan still sat on the sofa. Lu Boyan said, “There are available rooms here. If you don’t want to leave, we can live here for one night.”

Su Jianan did keep thinking about tomorrow, but she also kept thinking about the Maracon on the snack stand. Upon finishing the last Maracon, she patted her hands and stood up, “Let’s go home. You have to go to work tomorrow morning. I also need to go to your company tomorrow.”

At last Lu Boyan knew why she had not been able to get up. He let the driver drive to the entrance of the clubhouse. When they walked out, they ran into Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue was leaning against a black Land Rover. He displayed his powerful and imposing manner quietly. It was obvious that he had looked that leisurely and relaxing. However, a kind of strong aggressiveness was hiding behind him. People consequently dared not to get close to him.

He walked towards Su Jianan and handed her a name card, “I have forgotten to give you this. Kindly visit here more often in later days.”

Su Jianan had a look at it and found out it was a Bianlu Shop’s name card. She was greatly surprised, “Have you really opened a Bianlu branch store in A City?”

Mu Sijue was hesitant for a while and said, “Yes, the business will get started a week later.”

“I’ll definitely go there.”

Su Jianan took an oath devoutly. When she smiled, the sun shined brightly. With this kind of smile blooming on her delicate and small face, people would think of it as a pleasing thing.

Mu Sijue knew all of a sudden why Lu Boyan would have given a lot of care to make her happy.

He smiled, which was a rare thing, “I will leave now.”

Su Jianan waved her hands at him and showed the name card to Lu Boyan specifically, “He said the business would get started a week later!”

Lu Boyan really could not understand why a shop would simply make Su Jianan that happy. He opened the car door reluctantly, “Get on the car and let’s go home first.”

Su Jianan got on the car obediently. Lu Boyan sat on the back seats with her. The car started up slowly and drove towards Dingya Villas.

Su Jianan had a habit of taking a nap while at rest. Due to the fact that she had been playing the tennis for more than one hour and she also had been chatting with Luo Xiaoxi for the whole afternoon, she was drowsy the moment when she got on the car. Lu Boyan clasped her towards his shoulder and said, “Just sleep. I will wake you up once we are home.”

“OK.”

Su Jianan held Lu Boyan’s arms and leaned against his shoulder in the same way as the Koala had found some branches to rely on. She sank into a deep sleep sometime later.

The car was with the blankets. Lu Boyan fetched the blanket over and shrouded it on Su Jianan’s body. Seeing her sleeping safe and sound, he felt an inexplicable calmness.

The car raced at a moderate speed. They came all the way down along the mountain and arrived at the home within less than an hour. Fearing that Su Jianan would be disturbed, the driver even stopped the car and got off the car in a quiet and soundless way. Then he went over to open the car door for Lu Boyan.

Lu Boyan was about to lift Su Jianan up. Then she woke up while rubbing her eyes. She stared outside the windows and smiled as if she had relaxed a little bit. “We are home.”

Lu Boyan retrieved his hands without no trace left. He replied with a “Hum” and got off the car behind her.

The sunset painted a layer of light golden color on the house’s exposed walls. While in the garden, the grasses were green and the flowers were blooming flourishingly. This place would offer people a sense of belonging of home, no matter which angels it was looked at from.

Su Jianan held Lu Boyan’s hands all of a sudden. As for what she was thinking about, it was unknown. Seeing that though her expression was somewhat peculiar, there was a stream of smile lying in the bottom of her eyes instead, Lu Boyan consequently said nothing.
