Han Xi was so shocked, she almost dislocated her jaw. She had thought it was just a regular diamond ring and didn’t expect it to be so expensive.
What if it accidentally fell and got lost? That would be a hundred million gone.
"Is it really that expensive?" Han Xi asked again, unsure.
"Absolutely. I’m starting to like your Mr. Lu now; it seems he truly loves you."
Manman pulled over a chair and sat beside Han Xi, grinning with mischievous intent: "How’s Mr. Lu in bed? Does he make you feel like you’re on cloud nine?"
Han Xi found Manman’s leap in conversation incomprehensible. Weren’t they just talking about the ring?
In less than a second, it somehow turned into...
Manman shot Han Xi a wicked little look, unabashedly continuing to ask: "We’re close friends who talk about everything; quickly, tell me, does your Mr. Lu pounce on you like a wild beast every day?"
Even with the closest of friends, Han Xi couldn’t possibly discuss such private matters.
Though she had to admit Manman wasn’t wrong, Mr. Lu indeed pounced on her like a wild beast every day, but she’d never acknowledge it.
"Manman, can we change the topic?"
Han Xi thought it was too shameless for two women to be discussing this behind closed doors in the office.
Manman looked at Han Xi’s slightly flushed cheeks, offering advice like a veteran: "There’s no need to feel embarrassed. You need to know that only with a fulfilling sex life can you be truly happy. You have to be more proactive at night; men prefer assertive women. Also, try wearing more seductive lingerie."
Han Xi wished she could find a hole to hide in, wondering where this girl learned such things.
After work in the evening, Lu Jinghan picked up Han Xi to go home and change clothes before heading to the Lu Family’s old house.
In the Maybach, Han Xi gazed at the man beside her, the warm streetlights spilled through the car windows onto Lu Jinghan’s profile, softening his deep and defined features.
Noticing the woman beside him constantly watching, Lu Jinghan’s thin lips curved into a sexy smile: "Seems like Mrs. Lu is quite enamored with my good looks."
"Yes, Mr. Lu’s good looks have me utterly obsessed."
Han Xi was gradually becoming accustomed to Lu Jinghan’s unexpected teasing and could now handle it with ease.
Lu Jinghan moved his right hand from the steering wheel, spreading open Han Xi’s palm with his distinctly jointed fingers, his voice dripping with drowning affection: "Then Mrs. Lu must be enchanted by me for lifetimes, and before meeting me, absolutely must not love another man."
Han Xi’s gaze fell on the ring and she finally remembered to ask: "Jing Han, is this ring very expensive? Manman told me it costs around a hundred million."
Lu Jinghan glanced sideways, his ocean-deep dark eyes brimming with captivating tenderness: "For you, I only wish to give more."
Han Xi’s heart felt as if it was about to melt, her eyes slightly red: "Jing Han, you’ll spoil me ."
Lu Jinghan held Han Xi’s hand tighter: "Silly girl, who else would I pamper if not you?"
The world said Lu Jinghan was ruthless in business, that no woman could get close to him. However, little did they know, Mr. Lu changed entirely after meeting Mrs. Lu—devoted and doting upon her; consequently, this made many women envious, jealous, and even resentful of Mrs. Lu.
