Chapter 147: Buttering Me Up?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xing Shu was his mistress. How could she be bullied by others? Moreover, something so major happened last night, but Xing Shu did not even call him. Cheng Lang could not help but think about how Xing Shu and Nie Xi had praised Nie Heng for being generous in front of him just now. He could not help but wonder if he was doing badly. He had never had a mistress before and did not know how to keep one. He had zero experience.
Xing Shu was not the type to take the initiative to beg others. She was used to being alone and relied on herself for everything. This realization made Cheng Lang very uncomfortable. He even thought that he would go back and properly research on how to keep a mistress.
Xing Shu sat at the side, her mind blank. After a long time, she looked up at Cheng Lang, who was going over the documents again. His hair was enveloped by the sunlight that shone in from outside, as if it was glowing. His skin was fair… His eyelashes were long… His taut wrist bones were sharp. Such a person actually said that he wanted to be her backing?
Xing Shu pursed her lips. After a long time, she said softly, “If I cause trouble at tomorrow’s banquet…” Before she could finish speaking, she heard Cheng Lang say, “If you’re bullied, I’ll be the one who loses face.”
Xing Shu regarded his reply with mirth. Her lips curved into a smile for a while before she said, “Thank you. I can prepare more detailed information about
MOOL for you, or I can go overseas and see if there are any companies worth Investing m. president cneng, I nave notmng to repay you witn. I can only work harder at work.” After saying that, she picked up the glass of water beside her. “President Cheng, are you thirsty? Do you want some water?”
Cheng Lang smiled. He took the glass of water and glanced at Xing Shu.
“Buttering me up?”
Xing Shu rolled her eyes. Duh…
In Cheng Lang’s opinion, this was the best thing about Xing Shu. Be it buttering him up or wheedling, she did it graciously and unabashedly. When Jian Yaochuan came out with a plate, he saw Cheng Lang looking at Xing Shu with a smile. Xing Shu sat beside him and said something. The corners of her eyes were raised, and her lips were rosy.
Jian Yaochuan quickly retracted his gaze and did not dare to look again. After the chef finished cooking, he left with the chef.
This was the first time Xing Shu had enjoyed the treatment of a
Michelin-starred chef coming to her house to cook. After eating and drinking her fill, she called the hospital to ask about Feng Daxiang’s condition. Knowing that the director was awake, she heaved a sigh of relief and began to contact the charity organization.
