6: Chapter 6: How is it?
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio At this moment, however, he was more mature and reserved, deep and stern.
Bo Jingshen did not speak, he just gave Gu Xin a cold glance before standing aside.
Jiang Li waved his hand and said, “Oh, it was just a small favor, no need to be polite.
Besides, that day at Yunding, it was the first time we met, and Brother Shen drank three glasses for you.
We all felt quite apologetic.
So yesterday, Brother Shen acted heroically to help you out, and I just helped to stop the rumors.”
Gu Xin was a bit surprised, “That person yesterday, was Mr.
Su Lu nodded and said officially, “Thank you, Mr.
Bo and Young Master Jiang, for the help this time.
But I’m going on a business trip to Hai City soon.
Otherwise, I would invite you for a drink after I get discharged.”
“Hmm?” Jiang Li was somewhat surprised, “You are going to Hai City too?”
Bo Jingshen, who was standing quietly beside them, suddenly looked up at her.
Su Lu blinked, “Yes, I’m going to inspect a project.
is Young Master Jiang going to Hai City too?”
Jiang Li said, “I don’t like to make a fuss.” He pointed to Bo Jingshen, “Bo Jingshen is going to Hai City for a conference.”
Gu Xin seemed to understand, “Is it the technology exhibition in the Huaxia District?”
“Yes, that’s the one.” Jiang Li nodded.
Then he looked at Su Lu, “Could you take care of Brother Shen then?
He has been abroad for a few years and might not be familiar with some things here.
His team is still abroad.
If Miss Su could take care of him, I won’t send anyone else with him.”
Su Lu didn’t want to agree, but since they had just helped her, she had no choice but to agree reluctantly.
They didn’t stay long.
When Gu Xin left, he also saw them out.
The ward became quiet.
Su Lu got up to go to the bathroom.
When she came out of the bathroom, she was startled by the tall figure leaning against the wall by the door.
you didn’t leave?” Su Lu looked at him, still shocked.
Bo Jingshen curled his lips, “After seeing your husband leave, I thought and came back.”
He placed his hand on the wall, trapping her between his arms, looking down at her with an overwhelming presence.
Bo Jingshen laughed softly, “How does it feel?
After several years, why had this man become so unpredictable?
Trapped between his arms, she had no way out, “Please move.”
The cold scent of cedar on him seemed to permeate everything, making Su Lu’s ears turn red.
Bo Jingshen laughed softly, and his voice no longer carried the deep hatred it had when they first met at Yunding.
Su Lu thought, perhaps such revenge did indeed bring some relief.
“You just agreed to Jiang Er.” Bo Jingshen leaned in, his lips close to her ear, his voice low and magnetic, “So…
how do you plan to take care of me?”
Su Lu took a deep breath, collecting her thoughts, thinking about Xu Ning’s usual work responsibilities.
Businesslike, she said, “I will book your flights, hotel, and local transportation.
If you need reservations for any banquets or dinners, you can let me know in advance.”
Bo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, his deep eyes fixed on her.
After a moment, he lightly tapped her neck with his finger, “Su Lu, I’m a bit curious.”
Bo Jingshen chuckled, “As long as Gu Xin isn’t blind, he can see the marks I left on your neck that haven’t completely faded.
Is he just really tolerant, or are you two really doing your own thing, turning a blind eye to the green hat?”
“That’s my private matter.” Su Lu raised her hand to pull the collar of her hospital gown, seizing the opportunity to slip out from under his arm.
“If you have nothing else, please leave.
I’m going to rest.” Su Lu gestured towards the door, “I’ll send you the details for the flight and hotel reservations.”
Bo Jingshen ignored her, pulling out a chair to sit down, clearly not planning to leave.
He looked down, fiddling with his phone, asking in a light voice, “What’s good to eat in Feng City?”
Su Lu: “Salted crispy chicken, braised white eel, partridge porridge.”
Bo Jingshen’s eyes flickered, and he silently tapped on his phone screen.
Su Lu leaned back on the hospital bed, falling asleep shortly after.
Clearly, after five years, with new and old grudges.
Even though he had done such things to her at Yunding…
But deep down, Su Lu couldn’t seem to let her guard up around him.
Just like five years ago, as long as he was around, she subconsciously felt safe and relaxed.
A deep, magnetic voice woke her, “Wake up.
“No, I’m tired.” Su Lu, not fully awake, mumbled with a soft nasal tone, sounding like the coquettish murmur of a lover, extremely delicate.
But she quickly realized, stiffening all over.
Su Lu opened her eyes to see the man’s deep eyes and his slightly smiling lips by the bed.
“Su Lu, who did you think I was?”
Bo Jingshen’s voice turned cold.
Su Lu bitterly smiled at herself, yes, who did she think he was?
She actually mistook him for the Bo Jingshen who indulged her every whim five years ago.
“You haven’t left yet?” Su Lu avoided the question.
Bo Jingshen tilted his head, “Get up and eat something.”
The ward at Muhe was a fully equipped single suite.
On the dining table beside them were several thermal bags with logos from well-known restaurants.
Su Lu originally had no appetite, but somehow got up and sat at the dining table with Bo Jingshen.
How long had it been since they sat together and had a proper meal?
The thermal bags were opened one by one.
Salted crispy chicken, braised white eel, partridge porridge.
Exactly the three dishes Su Lu mentioned earlier.
After a moment, Bo Jingshen frowned, “It’s not as good as yours.”
Su Lu was stunned, gently biting her lip.
She had cooked him a few Feng City specialty dishes before, and he still remembered.
Bo Jingshen: “I never knew these were Feng City dishes.”
And he didn’t know she was from Feng City.
Back then, to stay away from the Su Family, she specifically applied to a university far from Feng City, in Hai City.
With no sense of belonging to the Su Family, she rarely even mentioned Feng City.
Su Lu pressed her lips together, unsure of what to say.
After what he did to her at Yunding, she couldn’t bring herself to apologize.
Time had passed, and water had gone under the bridge; past wounds had turned into scars hard to forget.
So they finished their meal in silence.
Bo Jingshen didn’t stay long, seeming like he had come just to have a meal.
After he left, Su Lu breathed a sigh of relief, but felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
She called Xu Ning, “Book me another flight to Hai City and a hotel room.
Yes, I’ll send the name to your WeChat.”
Xu Ning asked her if it was for the same flight and hotel as hers.
Su Lu was silent for a few seconds, “No, book a different flight and hotel.”
