"Ruan Ruan, let me help." Lu
Peijing approached her with a smile.
Su Zhiruan glared at him, then quietly
looked at her grandmother on the other side.
I don't know what Lu Peijing is
thinking. He clearly knows what their current relationship is, but he still
wants to present the image of a harmless and upright young man in front of her
grandmother.
At this time, the grandmother's face was
filled with smiles, as if she was an old woman smiling happily at the younger
generation who were chatting and making noises.
Su Zhiruan felt that the situation was
not good. The original owner had never brought a boyfriend home before. She had
always been busy making money and studying hard to get scholarships. She had
been so busy for a long time, so even if someone pursued her, the first thing
she would think of was to refuse.
Now Lu Peijing behaves very sincerely in
front of her grandmother. If you don't know, you might really think that Lu
Peijing and her are a couple.
While packing up, Su Zhiruan decided to
talk less.
After packing up all of grandma's
things, Lu Peijing and Su Zhiruan supported grandma on the left and right,
listening to her chatter as they walked outside.
Lu Peijing's outfit today was so
deceptive that no one could recognize him.
Lu Peijing usually appears in a
wheelchair in a suit and tie, but today he is wearing a hat and a mask,
standing tall and slender, just like a young college student.
The doctors and nurses knew that the old
man had been told by his superiors that he was a distinguished guest, so the
medical staff came out to remind him of the precautions to be taken in the
future.
Su Zhiruan wrote them down one by one
and thanked them sincerely, "Thank you all for your hard work."
"It's okay, it's okay!"
After hearing her say this, everyone's
favorability towards her increased a little.
Su Zhiruan and Lu Peijing took grandma
out of the hospital gate.
Grandma took a deep breath and sighed
happily, "Today is the happiest day of my life. Ruan Ruan and this young
man came to pick me up. My illness has been cured, and my whole body feels much
more relaxed!"
"Grandma, you have to take good
care of yourself in the future. When I am at work, you should rest at home.
Only when you are in good health can I take you to travel around the
world." Su Zhiruan saw that her expression became much more lively, and he
also relaxed a lot.
"Okay, okay, but grandma is old. If
you want to go out and play, just go out and play. Develop your
relationship..." She looked at Lu Peijing and Su Zhiruan with loving eyes.
The more she looked, the more she felt that these two children were a perfect
match. She really wanted these two children to be together.
"Grandma! Stop talking nonsense!
Let's get in the car first!" Su Zhiruan felt a headache. Older people
always wanted to matchmake for the younger generation, but they hoped to see
the younger generations support each other and form a small family, which was
understandable.
Lu Peijing just listened to their
conversation with a smile, without interfering or interrupting.
Soon, Su Zhiruan arrived at the new
residential complex.
Although this is not a particularly good
neighborhood, she had considered it before renting a house. There are many
elderly people here, and there is a morning market in the morning and a night
market in the evening. It will be very quiet after the hustle and bustle. Many
elderly people live here. The community here is also very good, with different
entertainment activities and equipment.
"It's on the second floor. Let's go
up first." Su Zhiruan supported his grandmother with his other hand, and
he was carrying a lot of things with his other hand, so he felt a little tired
for a while.
At this moment, Lu Peijing quietly took
the things in her hand. He was very tall and it was easy for him to carry these
daily necessities. Then, he helped her grandmother up, "Grandma, be
careful on the steps."
Su Zhiruan was standing beside him. His
movements just now were so light and fast that it seemed like a gust of wind
blowing by.
The wind was silent, but she could smell
a faint scent of sandalwood on him.
This was something she had dreamt of
many times in the middle of the night before. She smelled this scent and fell
into a deep sleep, tiredly.
Soon, seeing that the two of them had
gone upstairs, Lu Peijing said something that made grandma smile from ear to
ear.
Su Zhiruan then took out the key from
her bag, opened the door and let her grandmother in.
As soon as grandma came in, she looked
around and was as happy as a little child.
Su Zhiruan did not enter the room.
Instead, she quietly closed the door and then faced Lu Peijing. She asked,
"Mr. Lu, you don't have to do this."
Lu Peijing leaned lazily against the
wall with his arms folded. At this moment, he looked very relaxed, which was
completely different from the usual aloof and unapproachable leader of the Lu
Group. When he looked at Su Zhiruan, his eyes were still smiling, "Isn't
this good? Grandma is very happy!"
"Grandma thinks we are... but our
relationship is not something that can be said openly." Su Zhiruan lowered
her voice, took a step forward, and got closer to him. She always kept the
mission in her mind, and she knew what she should do to be right.
But now, the development of things has
gone off track from before.
It was also different from what she
imagined.
"Since the old woman is happy, why
not let her believe it." Lu Peijing felt a little blocked in his heart. It
was obviously he who proposed the contract, but now, she kept mentioning it, as
if asking him not to forget it. Lu Peijing had long forgotten his cold attitude
at the beginning and just felt very unhappy.
Su Zhiruan didn't want to cover up this
lie. She took a deep breath and still wanted to say a few more words.
However, at this moment, she was hugged
by a pair of big hands.
The two of them were already very close
to each other, and Lu Peijing could basically catch her with just one hand.
In just a moment, the sky was spinning
and the earth was spinning, and their positions changed direction.
Su Zhiruan was pushed against the wall,
and his pupils dilated.
"Lu—well…"
She felt the light sandalwood scent
gradually spreading at the tip of her nose. The fragrance was very faint.
At this moment, she seemed to be
surrounded by sandalwood.
The overwhelming softness, coldness and
sweetness mixed together reminded her of the kiss from a few days ago.
After a long time, Lu Peijing let the
person go.
He smiled and crossed his arms. Seeing
Su Zhiruan's legs weaken, he even reached out to help her and said
sanctimoniously, "Miss Su, you should be careful when walking! This time
you have a stranger like me to help you, but there may not be such a kind
person next time."
When he said this, he was smiling from
the beginning and even straightened her collar.
Su Zhiruan's breathing was unstable and
she held on to the door. Then she heard him say something with a smile.
"Tonight, let a stranger like me
get to know Miss Su better? Perhaps we still don't know each other well
enough..."
"Mr. Lu just likes to joke."
Su Zhiruan's smile froze for a moment, so he decided to just laugh it off.
She now really doubted whether this man,
who was laughing and joking with his head full of such things, was really the
cold and moody young master of the Lu family!?
