Chapter 15
“Are you two looking for anything specific?” The manager smiled happily. He was all prepared to serve them.
Ning Sheng was shocked by the manager’s sudden change in attitude. Just a moment ago, he had chased away their VVIP in a threatening manner, but now, he was smiling at them.
She really could not comprehend what was happening.
“Bed.” She said.
“Then you two can take a look over here. The natural leather and real wood created by famous Italy experts are in a simple and modern European style. It is environmentally friendly, cute, and sweet…” The manager rambled on introducing the types of beds.
“Which one is the cheapest?” Ning Sheng asked directly.
“The ones over there are very cheap.” The manager pointed at the most expensive one and said, “Take a look and see which one you like.”
Lu Chu Yao patted her shoulder and asked her to choose the one she liked best. Of course, he would prefer a bed that is not too big, so as to increase the chances of them sleeping close to each other.
“Then this one?” Ning Sheng pointed at the exquisite beige-colored bed and asked Lu Chu Yao.
The manager smiled and nodded, “You have good taste. This bed is comfortable and the size is just right. It’s also the cheapest model in our store.”.
Lu Chu Yao, standing at the side, gave the manager an appreciative look.
After purchasing the bed, the manager also gave them a series of new bedding. He even asked for their address and said that it would be delivered to their place free of charge. Ning Sheng had a feeling the manager was only doing these because Lu Chu Yao was handsome.
“Do you want to buy some clothes?” Lu Chu Yao asked.
He knew that Ning Sheng had never been extravagant, especially when it came to herself.
“Forget it. If you really want to show you care, get a job and have a stable income and then consider supporting me,” Ning Sheng made it sound like she was sensible, but it was because she had been independent her whole life. Getting help from others was not something she was used to.
At that moment Lu Chu Yao wanted so badly to confess he was the Lu Chu Yao that topped the wealthiest people in the world list. But he was afraid Ning Sheng might start distancing herself if he actually said it.
After all, this little woman had not truly fallen in love with him. He was just a poor husband who somehow managed to help her with her family problems.
“Alright,” he said while nodding slightly.
Ning Sheng was a little tired when she returned to their place. She felt a little upset thinking of what happened today.
“Who was that man and woman today?” Lu Chu Yao suddenly asked.
“The man was my ex-boyfriend from college and the woman was the one who stole him from me.” Ning Sheng casually explained. The two of them had gotten together in a flash and it did not affect her much. Thus, she was willing to be honest about the situation.
Unexpectedly, Lu Chu Yao’s expression changed when he heard this.
“Ning Sheng, look at me.” Lu Chu Yao’s tone was cold.
Just as Ning Sheng was about to look up at him, he grabbed the back of her head, and she subconsciously forgot to resist.
Ning Sheng felt her face and ears burning, not knowing what to do.
Lu Chu Yao had kissed her forcefully?
Only then did she react and tried to push him away, but he was not willing to let go and only tighten his grip.
Lu Chu Yao had closed his eyes for a while now, making Ning Sheng wonder how this man managed to be so good-looking.
After quite some time, Ning Sheng felt as if all her oxygen had been taken away by the man in front of her.
Ning Sheng looked at Lu Chu Yao all confused. What made him act so direct suddenly?
“Lu Chu Yao.” She mumbled against his lips.
Lu Chu Yao looked at Ning Sheng. There was a possessiveness in his eyes as he explained sincerely, “Ning Sheng, I’m sorry. I might have been a little abrupt just now. But I really want to kiss you.”.
