Lu Jia’er came back after answering the phone. Only Jin Xiangdong and Dr. Zheng still remained at the table. The two were having a discussion, and Lu Jia’er pulled out a chair and sat down.
After a while, the two of them finished talking, and Dr. Zheng got up and left, giving them a chance to speak to one another alone.
Seeing that Jin Xiangdong was seated on the opposite side of the table watching her eat coolly, Lu Jia’er could not help but look directly into his eyes. “Do you have a habit of having your meal with people?”
“It depends on whom I am having my meal with.” Jin Xiangdong slightly curled his lips.
On hearing his words, Lu Jia’er had ripples on the surface of the lake of her heart and her face naturally showed a gentle smile.
Jin Xiangdong eyed her expression and his eyes also became gentle. Knowing that Lu Jia’er would leave the office for the day soon, he asked, “Will you go back to school later?”
“No, I will go to the Provincial Public Security Bureau!” Lu Jia’er said.
Jin Xiangdong looked at her, reached out for the juice, took a sip and finally asked with a casual air, “Is there a case that needs your assistance?”
“Yes!” Lu Jia’er nodded. It was a joy to chat with Jin Xiangdong, who was very straightforward.
“Professor Lu, you deserve to be a recognized talent. You are popular with everyone!” Jin Xiangdong praised.
“Ace, can I discuss one matter with you?” Lu Jia’er smiled.
“Do you want me to be less honest?” Jin Xiangdong curled his lips with a delighted expression.
“No!” Lu Jia’er smiled and shook her head.
“Then what?” Jin Xiangdong raised his brow slightly.
“Can you call me by a name that narrows our distance!” Lu Jia’er said her request straightforwardly.
“What do you want me to call you?” Jin Xiangdong was also very direct.
Lu Jia’er found that Jin Xiangdong was too cunning. Whether it was work or conversation, even if she prevailed in the beginning, it would definitely be dominated by him in the end.
“Call me Xiao Lu, or Jia’er!” Although there were many expectations in her heart, Lu Jia’er gave a normal answer, but calling her Jia’er would suggest a relatively close intimacy.
“Jia’er!” Jin Xiangdong read the name of Lu Jia’er with the cold and magnetically attractive voice, it was a delightful feast for her ears.
“It’s a deal!” Lu Jia’er said cheerfully.
“Jia’er, Jiajia, Erer, Erer seems to be better!” However, Jin Xiangdong did not agree, instead he said.
Erer! This was completely beyond Lu Jia’er’s imagination, because the most intimate person around her nicknamed her Jiajia, and no one had ever called her Erer.
Lu Jia’er was a little shy and bit her lips: “Erer, Bu Guo Erer 1 !”
“I choose Erer, because certainly no one has called you Erer!” He said and then smiled.
Indeed, most people don’t like the meaning of Erer, so almost no one had called her Erer. But Jin Xiangdong did exactly the opposite. He was really special.
On hearing the reasoning, Lu Jia’er smiled and looked at Jin Xiangdong, “Want to apply for a patent? I will consider it!”
“Since I am the first one, then the patent belongs to none other than me!” Jin Xiangdong had a confident look, although the tone was gentle, but with a hint of arbitrariness.
Lu Jia’er adored and worshipped his confidence but she also could do nothing about it. There was such a sentence in one of Su Han’s novels. In the world of love, whoever takes the initiative is at a disadvantage, whoever has a desire for love, loses the whole game.
After verifying this through practice, Lu Jia’er felt that it made sense to some extent. In front of Jin Xiangdong, she was always influenced by him from time to time, but one thing, she could be sure of was that this desire for love was not unilateral.
