Chapter 83: Other Girls Aren’t As Easy To Bully As Me

“I missed you…”

The girl’s words pierced Chen Lu’s heart like an arrow, making his heartbeat stop for a moment.

After he regained his senses, he gave the girl a gentle smile and slowly said, “I missed you too.”

Time seemed to stand still the moment their eyes met, even though there were crowds of people around, making a lot of noise.

But in their eyes, only each other existed.

For a moment.

“How did your Level 6 exam go?” Chen Lu asked.

Although he had been busy like a ghost these past few days, he still remembered that Liang Zhirou had an exam today.

Liang Zhirou nodded slightly, indicating that there were no problems.

“Let’s go, I’ll treat you to dinner, to celebrate you finishing your Level 6 exam.”

Chen Lu said, tucking her hair behind her ear again.

This was the most proactive he had ever been. For him, he now finally had the confidence to take on the responsibility of this girl’s future.

Liang Zhirou raised her head in a daze, looking confused. “Shouldn’t we be celebrating you getting a good ranking?”

“In my heart, this is the most worth celebrating for me.”

Chen Lu said softly. Seeing Lin Miaomiao bouncing over, he added, “Don’t tell them, they’ll be angry.”

“What are you two whispering about?” Lin Miaomiao tilted her head, smiling mischievously at them.

“We’re discussing what to treat you to.” Chen Lu said helplessly, thinking, can’t you learn from the others and stand far away? Why do you like being a light bulb so much?

Wasting the boss’s precious time, I’ll find a reason to deduct your salary sooner or later.

Lin Miaomiao nodded slightly, then hugged Liang Zhirou tightly like an octopus, “I missed you so much!”

Liang Zhirou also smiled at her, letting the other girl rub her cheek against hers.

Chen Lu didn’t bother to continue criticizing Lin Miaomiao, deciding to take out his phone to reply to the messages he hadn’t replied to.

As soon as he opened WeChat, the first thing that popped up was a bunch of messages from Chen Mo.

What’s this guy up to?

Chen Lu clicked on it curiously.

Chen Mo: Bro, where did you put your Apple Watch charger?

I took the bracelet in your drawer to wear, okay?

Why aren’t you replying?

I’ll assume you agree then.

These were all messages sent this morning.

Chen Lu: Put it back after you’re done, but why are you taking my stuff for no reason?

As soon as the message was sent, Chen Mo replied.

Chen Mo: I found it while looking for your watch charger, I’m wearing it for good luck, I’ll be dead if I fail this exam again. Don’t tell me, it seems to actually work, I guessed all four choices correctly in my English exam.

Chen Lu was overjoyed, his typing speed increased significantly, “Is there such a thing?! I’ve been wanting to be an only child for a long time.”

Chen Mo: Go away!

He replied to all the messages, then looked up at everyone, “Have you decided what to eat? I’m treating.”

“With so many people, let’s go eat stir-fries.” Lin Miaomiao suggested.

“Eat something expensive!” Peng Leyun continued to stir things up.

Jiang Chao’s mouth was almost reaching the sky, “Anything expensive is fine!”

Just as Chen Lu was silently watching everyone excitedly discussing where to eat, Liang Zhirou quietly leaned towards his ear and whispered, “I have to go give Chen Mo a lesson tonight.”

Her concern for Chen Mo’s academic situation had long surpassed the scope of a tutor.

If Liang Zhirou had a younger sister, she wouldn’t be more concerned.

“Liang Laoshi, don’t be so dedicated, okay?” Chen Lu found it funny, tapping her forehead with his index finger, “Do you want to stay with her or stay with me?”

“With you…”

Liang Zhirou didn’t say anything, feeling like she was a really unprofessional tutor.

Now it was Chen Lu’s turn to lean into her ear and whisper, “Don’t be nervous, participating in a crowded event is part of the plan.”

“Okay.” Liang Zhirou responded nervously.

Every time he leaned into her ear, she would go weak in the knees, but she was too embarrassed to say anything.

He chuckled, “You don’t have to be afraid to talk to those strangers, your position is much higher than theirs.”

Liang Zhirou didn’t understand at first, her eyes blinked as she looked at Chen Lu.

Then she remembered that the position Chen Lu was referring to was “boss’s wife,” and her face instantly flushed red.

She was naturally fair-skinned, with thin skin, so she would easily blush.

Liang Zhirou pouted slightly, they hadn’t seen each other for days, why was he bullying her as soon as they met?

“Do you say this to other girls too?” She asked impulsively.

“Of course not.” Chen Lu’s expression was serious.

Liang Zhirou pursed her lips, inexplicably happy.

Then Chen Lu suddenly blew on her ear, “I’ll only bully you for the rest of my life.”

“Other girls might not be as easy to bully as me…” Liang Zhirou’s hands were fidgeting nervously, she couldn’t help but have a guess that was hard to believe –

Does Chen Lu like me as much as I like him?

……

At the hotel.

Jiang Chao “snatched” the position of host from Chen Lu, choosing a luxuriously decorated hotel, and excitedly ordered a bunch of dishes with everyone.

Chen Lu had never seen such a big lobster in his life, Jiang Chao ordered it with all his might.

He was truly happy.

The already happy crowd was further infected by his mood, and they all started to get excited.

Chen Lu’s performance was a little calmer, this success was just the first step for him.

He had a much longer-term vision.

“Call Zheng Haoyu and Li Sinian over? It’s our celebration dinner anyway.”

Just as Chen Lu was deep in thought, Jiang Chao, holding a cigarette, walked up to him.

Jiang Chao sighed lightly, “We’re inseparable, but with those two, it’s really one less meeting each time.”

“Call them.”

Chen Lu didn’t refuse, it was already mid-June, if those two sons weren’t in Hangzhou, the next time they met would be at their actual graduation.

After three years together, he would definitely feel a little sentimental thinking about it.

“Zheng Haoyu is really one less meeting each time, Li Sinian is hard to say.” Chen Lu said with a wry smile.

This guy is probably going to stay in Hangzhou to continue chasing Qin Wenxi.

Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Chao sent the message, Li Sinian said he was with Qin Wenxi, so he had no choice but to call them both over.

……

Ten minutes later.

Liang Zhirou looked at the various aquatic species in the big and small pools with great curiosity, it was like she had entered an aquarium.

“Is there anything you want to eat? These aren’t actually expensive.” Chen Lu asked softly.

The girl shook her head, she just thought it was fun.

“Like a little kid.”

Chen Lu couldn’t help but tease her, but he still stayed by her side.

If he didn’t stay by her side, Liang Zhirou wouldn’t dare to stay here alone.

At this moment, Li Sinian called him to ask which room he was in.

“I’ll go to the lobby to pick you up.”

After hanging up the phone, Chen Lu patted Liang Zhirou’s shoulder lightly, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the aquarium next time.”

He couldn’t help but laugh, this silly girl was getting cuter and cuter.
