Lydia Song came and went in a hurry, leaving only the two of them again in the VIP ward. Elizabeth Liang sat there, still not knowing how to react. That's it? That was her meeting his parent? Judging from James Lu's mother's mannerisms, it was obvious that she did not come from common ranks, but she was still cordial and lovely. Elizabeth could almost still feel the warmth of Lydia's hands on her cheeks. Lydia carried a faint sweet scent with her. Her delicate hands were very warm, and they reminded Elizabeth of her own mother when she touched her face. After so many years, she once again felt the love of a mother. "Hey! What are you thinking!" James waved his hand in front of her. "Nothing." She came to herself and shook her head. "What's wrong?" "I need to go to the toilet." Elizabeth looked at him confusedly. "Hm?" "Help me!" He gestured for her to come to him. Elizabeth frowned. "Mr. Lu, only your head is injured, you can
As soon as Elizabeth Liang entered the door and saw the sofa, she collapsed onto it without even bothering to change her shoes. She went through more ups and downs today than a freaking movie. Staring at the wide floor-to-ceiling windows, she gloomily thought of James Lu's angry face. She sighed. How could he not be angry? Within one day, she had smashed his head, then pushed him again while he was injured... The fact of the matter was that she had asked for his help, so she shouldn't have exploded like that no matter how annoyed she was. After all, if she had irrevocably pissed him off, where could she possibly find another man like James Lu to rely on? She didn't know him well enough to figure out whether or not he would regret everything and refuse to marry her because of what she had done today. After giving it some thought, she shook her head and denied the idea. He probably wouldn't. Sure, James didn't come home with her, but he gav
James Lu had always paid great attention to his appearance, so he would avoid going to work in the name of recuperation when his head looked the way it was. He was always known for being elegantly refined and impeccably handsome. He was not going to show this ridiculous sight to the rest of the company like a monkey in a zoo. He was usually so busy that he actually had difficulty adjusting now that he had spare time on his hands, especially since he just stayed in his room all day long. He felt like everything in the room annoyed him. With nothing else to do, he called Isaac Bai over to drink. Isaac came quickly. As soon as he entered the door, he sat on the sofa and rubbed his eyebrows. It seemed like he was extremely tired. "Hey, I called you over to talk and drink with me, why the hell are you playing dead?" James twisted his eyebrows. Isaac glanced at him and said, "You think everyone's like you? Remote controlling companies with a phone? I use my tech
"Are you serious?" After hearing James Lu's answer, Isaac Bai began shouting exaggeratedly. "So you're gonna marry her just because you f*cked her? Are we living in the same century?" "So what?" James swirled the wine in his glass. "What's wrong with that?" Benjamin Cheng was silent for a long time before he looked at James. "Are you really going to do this?" James nodded. "I made a chaste young lady sleep with me, it's not crazy to take responsibility for that, is it? And besides, her home situation is a little complicated..." He rubbed his eyebrows. "Look, she even made sure I saw her take an after pill, but then she was forced to ask me, a complete stranger who had slept with her under dubious circumstances, to marry her. She's going through something I don't think any of us understand." The room fell silent at his words. The silence was only broken when the phone rang. James walked over and answered the phone— "Hello..." "
The bandages on James Lu's head had been taken off and his hair was slick with pomade. He looked dashing. James Lu looked in their direction with a faint smile on his lips, almost mischievous looking. But Elizabeth Liang felt like there were sparks of anger in his eyes. "Mr. Lu?" Theodore Chao felt embarrassed when he saw James and heard what he said. He let go of Elizabeth's hand and coughed to quickly cover up the humiliation on his face. He walked over and stretched out his hand to greet him. "I didn't expect to see you here, it is very nice to meet you!" Looking at the hand in front of him, James raised his eyebrows. A while passed before Theodore was about to awkwardly take it back, and only then did James lazily hold out his. When their hands were about to touch, James turned his hand and his body took a step away, and grabbed Elizabeth who was nearby. "Aren't you just bringing food? Why are you talking to some random guy who has nothing to do with you?"
"So that was your ex?" James Lu leads Elizabeth Liang to the underground parking lot and they got in his car. Elizabeth fastened her seat belt and nodded. "Yeah." He sneered and said, "Your taste in men sucks." He looks good, but his character is really bad. Hearing him say that, Elizabeth smiled bitterly. "My family arranged it. We grew up together." Then she joked, "I was young, dumb and blind." James had heard that phrase before. And boy, was it true. Hearing this, James burst into laughter. "So you were a child bride?" Why does he have to be so crude? "I wasn't even living with him, how was I a child bride?" Mr. Lu, did you go to school? She thought, but did not dare to ask. "Our families arranged the engagement years ago... but, well, now he's in love with my cousin Josephine Liang, you know, the super-popular actress." "So he was your fiancé?" James looked at her somewhat lonesome expression and raised his eyebrows. "Wha
James Lu usually hated waiting. But for some reason, he was being very patient today. He flipped through a fashion magazine with great interest as he sat on the sofa in the waiting room. There were a few others in the room, but he was definitely the most eye-catching. He only sat there upright, but his incomparably handsome face made him look like a painting. "Mr. Lu, we're done!" The stylist came out first and hurriedly pulled open the curtain behind her. Elizabeth Liang, who has been dressed up from head to toe, appeared before James. James looked up casually but was stunned the moment he saw Elizabeth. Her dress, shoes, accessories, makeup and hair were all coordinated in harmony. Elizabeth had on her a long white fishtail gown. She was in very good shape, and the dress perfectly outlined the curves on her body. She looked shapely yet not immodest, and somehow youthfully innocent. The stylist put on her the trendiest style of makeup, it was
The people inside the private room were cheerfully eating and chatting away. When the door was opened from outside, they all turned to see who has entered. "Mr. Lu?" Simon Wang was quite surprised to see the new guest, but he immediately greeted him with a smile. Theodore Chao, however, couldn't hide his shock. He did not expect James Lu to appear at all. Not only that, why was he with Elizabeth Liang? God, they're holding hands! Recalling what had happened in the lobby just now, he couldn't help but frown. What on earth was their relationship? James quickly scanned the room and smiled lightly. "Mr. Wang, do you mind two more guests?" Elizabeth looked at the two people in the room. She did not know Simon Wang, but when she saw Theodore sitting there and looking at her and James with a face of utter surprise and confusion, she understood James's intention. The reason why he took her to a stylist before coming here——to let Theodore know tha
