CH 5

Xiang Wanwan originally thought that she wouldn’t be able to sleep, however unexpectedly, she slept soundly, only waking up a few minutes past three o’clock in the afternoon. She was curled up in Lu Ziqian’s embrace, his one hand extended under her neck acting , a cushion for her head, while his fingers were dexterously fiddling with a strand of her hair. His other hand was holding an iPad, but Wanwan was unable to tell what he was looking at.

The air-conditioner in the bedroom is fully on, covered by a blanket and lying in the arms of a man is extremely enjoyable. The human body temperature is neither too cold nor too hot, no wonder it feels so amazing.

“You’re awake?” Lu Ziqian felt something move and looked down at her while reaching out to turn on the light on the bedside table. He then brought her a glass of water to drink, “The temperature should be just right.”

Xiang Wanwan sat up, her slightly curly hair dangled, her skin was very white which made her body seem like it’s glowing under the light of the bedside lamp.

After drinking the water, Xiang Wanwan noticed that Lu Ziqian had been staring at her and muttered, “Why are you looking at me all the time?”

Lu Ziqian smiled, reached out his hand to take the empty water glass and put it away, “Because you’re pretty.”

From Lu Ziqian’s point of view, Xiang Wanwan, who was calmly sleeping in his arms, looked like a soft white steamed bun which made people want to pinch her. Of course, her appearance was also extremely captivating, beautiful like a bloomed flower.

“I brought all my things over while you were asleep.”

He pointed to the thing placed in the corner of the bedroom, a small black suitcase, which didn’t look like it could fit much at all.

Xiang Wanwan guessed that Lu Ziqian, who used to be wealthy, should at least have so many things that a few suitcases wouldn’t be able to take it all in. So becoming like this must be extremely frustrating.

Thinking about it this way, she blinked and said, “Let’s go shopping to buy you clothes later, I have money, so you can buy whatever you want.”

Her tone was filled with confidence.

Lu Ziqian forced down a laugh, “Okay.”

Xiang Wanwan went to the bathroom to wash up, brush her teeth and wash her face. Next, she then went to the dressing room to find clothes to wear. It took her ages but finally, she chose a red strapless dress. Her skin has always been pale, and the red color made her skin lighter than snow, causing her entire body to shine brilliantly.

“How is this, this dress?” She walked out after changing, and twirled in front of Lu Ziqian for his opinion.

Lu Ziqian looked at it and nodded with certainty: “It looks good.”

With that said, he walked over, wrapped an arm around Xiang Wanwan’s soft waist, lowered his head and lightly bit her collarbone. Her beautiful and delicate collar bone seemed to be inviting him to leave a mark.

Xiang Wanwan disliked the pain, and pushed him away complaining: “Why are you biting me? Are you a dog?”

Lu Ziqian smirked, “Because your collarbone is very beautiful, with a necklace you will definitely look dazzling.”

Wanwan and Su Qing were going to meet at 7 o’clock in the evening, so there was still plenty of time. Xiang Wanwan decorated herself with pretty makeup, then grabbed a bunch of her curly long hair, tying it into a small bun, leaving the rest to fall on her shoulders.

“Let’s go to the mall to buy you clothes first, and then eat!” Xiang Wanwan planned her time very well, she must be on time.

The two headed to the mall and went straight to the third and fourth floor which were full of luxury brands. Xiang Wanwan dragged Lu Ziqian into a random store and began to wander around.

It didn’t need to be emphasized more that Lu Ziqian naturally fits anything. He is slender and has the perfect proportions. No matter what he wears he can manage to look good. The hormones overflowed and the female employees in the store couldn’t help but blush, secretly trying to send him signals.

“Wrap all the clothes he tried just now up and he’ll wear the ones on him to go!” Each and every one of them looked amazing so Xiang Wanwan was faced with a difficult decision. Buy all of them, problem solved.

After swiping her card, she turned her head to see a female employee talking to Lu Ziqian. She was obviously head over heels for him, face flushed and nervous. Xiang Wanwan’s plump face immediately bulged.

As if feeling her gaze, Lu Ziqian turned and when his gaze reached her, it immediately softened and he gave her a gentle smile.

“How does it look?” Lu Ziqian strode over, arms outstretched to let her look take a better look.

Xiang Wanwan’s mood turned sour, and said coldly: “Those female employees seem like they can’t take their eyes off you and praise you like a god. Haven’t you heard enough praises?”

Lu Ziqian hugged her, “But they are not you, I only want to hear you praise me.”

“…”

Lu Ziqian looked down at her, and asked in a low voice, “Are you angry? Jealous?”

“I’m not angry and not jealous either!” Xiang Wanwan looked like a cat whose feet were just stabbed. If there were fur on her body, it would have all stood up.

Lu Ziqian lips shifted upwards,”Ah, if you’re not  jealous, what should I do? Does this mean you lost interest in me? If you have lost interest in me, what can I do? No money or backing, I would have nothing. Wanwan I beg you, please don’t abandon me.”

The man kept his voice low, but he still managed a calm look.

His words made Xiang Wanwan’s ears turn red, and she reached out to cover his mouth, “What are you talking about? Stop it, there’s so many people watching.”

The girl who just expressed her affection to Lu Ziqian was stunned. Such a handsome and outstanding man was bought by the girl in front of him?

The girl thought she probably just needed to calm down.

Lu Ziqian didn’t care about other people’s gazes at all, “If they like watching, let them watch. You are my master. I don’t want you to be sulking here by yourself.”

The little thing* is sensitive, insecure, like a snail, if you don’t pay attention, it will retract into its own shell.

*Refers to Wanwan

Xiang Wanwan pursed her lips, “I’m not angry.”

Lu Ziqian raised his eyebrows, “I don’t believe you.”

“…”

“Unless Wanwan kisses me, then I’ll believe you are not angry.” Lu Ziqian smirked.

“Here? But there’s so many people watching.” Xiang Wanwan hesitated.

Lu Ziqian stopped talking.

Xiang Wanwan looked around, tiptoed and kissed him on the cheek, turning around, immediately blushing.

Oh god, it was so embarrassing!

Despite the delay, the two of them managed to step into the restaurant in time. Su Qing had already been waiting behind a table. As a member of the entertainment industry, her appearance stood out too much. Everyone sitting in the room swore she was shrouded in light.

“Su Qing!”

Xiang Wanwan called out as soon as she entered the room.

Su Qing turned her head and her gaze instantly fell on Lu Ziqian who was behind Xiang Wanwan, and when she saw the person clearly, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Lu Ziqian helped Xiang Wanwan pull the chair, before sitting down greeting Su Qing with a smile: “Hello, Miss Su, I am Lu Ziqian, Wanwan’s lover.”

He said lover, not a boyfriend.

Su Qing retracted her gaze, “What do you want to eat, order it yourself, I have already ordered mine.”

Xiang Wanwan said immediately: “I’m so hungry. I just shopped in the mall for a long time, so I feel like I can eat a cow.”

Su Qing said: “A cow? Yes, as long as you finish it, I’ll ask the cooks to prepare you a cow right now.”

“…I know you know I’m joking.”
