Chapter 216 Lu Mingchu Was Too Much

ead hadn't been removed, he ran back to the Donghuang to ask me if I had any work for him."So you gave her that dangerous job"If Su Meng hadn't figured out the trick yet, then she would have wasted he...I woke up early, the weather was beautiful.

After a shower, wrapped in a bathrobe, I came out of the bathroom and was just about to open the curtains when there were two knocks at the door.

Lu Ming finally released the curtain in his grip and walked toward the door.

With a slight click, the door creaked open.

Two people inside and outside the door froze at the same time.

Lu Mingchu hesitated for a moment, the next second, a cunning glint flashed in his eyes before disappearing.

"Hmm" A low voice, rolling out from his throat, was undeniably seductive.

He just finished showering, and he was wearing a thin bathrobe. He looked lazy and relaxed, and I have to say, it was quite alluring.

Outside the door, a woman shifted her eyes away and said, “This is your breakfast. Everyone else is busy, Zhaozhao is still sleeping soundly, so I…” That's why she brought his breakfast.

When saying others were busy, in fact there were only a few people in the whole homestay.

The inn itself isn't very large, so it doesn't need that many staff members.

The breakfast was a buffet, of course, not as elaborate as you'd find in a five-star hotel. Just some ordinary breakfast fare. Guests staying at the accommodation could go downstairs to eat, but there were also those with more particular tastes who had their breakfast delivered to their rooms.

Lu Ming only then saw that she was still holding a bamboo basket, a hint of surprise in her eyes... This was the first time he had ever seen a hotel deliver food in a bamboo basket.

But… that doesn’t matter.

Her thin lips curled up.

"Oh…" A long drawn-out "oh," with a hint of nasal tone, meaningfully swept its gaze from the woman's face outside the door: "Bring it in."

The woman outside stopped her feet and said with displeasure, "Can't Mr. Lu bring it in himself"

Lu Ming's handsome brows arched slightly, and he said matter-of-factly, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who does this sort of thing"

Such a thing

What kind of thing

The woman rolled her eyes inwardly... yet another clueless young master.

Lu Ming stood at the doorway, slightly raising one eyebrow: "Just standing there Is something this simple beyond your abilities" He smacked his lips, "Come to think of it, you are the big boss after all."

This is clearly sarcasm towards her!

The woman glanced at him, carrying a bamboo basket, and stepped across the threshold into the room.

"Put it on the coffee table."

She had no choice but to walk further in.

"Put down the bamboo basket, Mr. Lu. Please eat first. Someone will come to collect it when the room is cleaned later."

He spoke and then turned to walk towards the door, preparing to leave.

He looked up to see Lu Mingchu calmly holding his arms, leaning against the doorframe. The door was slightly ajar, and his hair was still damp, with droplets of water clinging to it. His forehead was slightly raised, giving off an air of languid nonchalance that was hard to describe.

She could only lower her eyelids and avoid looking.

The man at the door was watching her with a pleased expression as she blushed slightly. He didn't seem to care at all about how languid and alluring he looked in that moment.

"Boss, wouldn't you like to have breakfast together"

A man reached out and placed his hand on the slightly ajar doorknob. With lightning speed, he extended one long, lean arm and pressed down on the door.

She raised her head, this strange man's smile didn't make her feel good.

Her brows furrowed slightly: "Mr. Lu, your heart is so kind, why don't you invite the beggars on the street to have a meal"

"Okay." Lu Mingchu suddenly gave a light, cheerful smile and retracted his hand that was pressing against the door: "Boss, you said yesterday that you'd give me a set of teacups for your tea drinking, and also a lounge chair just like yours."

"Yes, I said that. After dinner, I told Ah Sheng to move it."

Lu Ming shook his head. "That won't do. When giving gifts, of course, you have to give them to the person who receives them. I want to choose it myself."

Choose yourself

"How... do I choose" This is interesting, "Should I put all the tea sets and chaise lounges in front of Mr. Lu and let him go through them one by one"

"Why go through all that trouble." Lu Mingchu laughed cheerfully, her eyes sparkling. "I heard Dali Ancient City is very lively, with lots of novel and interesting things."

"I was just thinking of going to take a look, but I'm not familiar with the place. Anyway, the boss has already promised to give me tea sets and a lounge chair, so why not be a good host and accompany me for a stroll around Dali Ancient City."

The woman hadn't even thought: "Zhao Zhao is awake, I'll have Zhao Zhao keep you company."

Just then, that girl Zhao Zhao was also clamoring to go out and play.

"No, no, no," Lu Mingchu shook his finger, suddenly bending down and pressing towards the woman in front of him, "That's not sincere at all. If the boss said they were going to give me something, then it should be the boss who comes with me to pick it out."

"……"She was startled by the face suddenly enlarged before her. Looking at this close distance, she realized that this person was really handsome.

It was just...a face flashed through her mind, and her face suddenly paled...was there such a resemblance in her eyebrows and eyes

A bitter taste, spread throughout.

"Get out of the way!" Though she was suppressing herself, the woman who normally spoke slowly and softly, her voice rough if you didn't listen closely, now had a noticeable roughness to it.

Lu Mingchu was slightly taken aback: "Hey, what..." what...

"Bang!"

With a sharp sound, the hand he reached out was deflected.

"Stay away from me!"

Lu Ming stared blankly at his crooked hand, the back of it red and swollen.

This woman... her strength is really something!

With a gritted teeth, he squinted and lowered his gaze to look deeply at the woman in front of him. Her face was pale as death, her complexion had changed drastically from just a moment ago. His eyes settled on those ghastly white lips… how could they have changed so suddenly

Upon closer inspection, Lu Mingchu, being as shrewd as he was, would surely have figured out the gist of things with just a little thought.

"Boss, you're not being fair!~ Just now that slap made my hand red and it hurts so much!~"

The woman subconsciously looked toward the back of his hand, sure enough, it was completely red… This man's hands were well-shaped, slender and fair, with distinct bones and strength. His nails were clean and refreshing… At a glance, one could tell that he rarely did any manual labor.

Yet, she was even struck by her, leaving a patch of blood red.

And indeed, it was a disaster that came out of the blue…I was merely caught in her wrath.

"Ouch~ That really hurts. Growing up this big, no woman has ever hit my hand like that before~"

Lu Ming gently held his hand, carefully kneading it for a while... She looked at the man in front of her, his brow furrowed with suppressed pain.

The slight embarrassment she had felt inside turned into guilt.

"Ai~ This doesn't know when it will be better..." Lu Mingchu didn't look at her, just holding his back of the hand, his face full of helplessness and worry.

Her guilt deepened.

“Forget it… It’s just a red mark on my back, right … Life always has a few first times like this. Just treat it as, as an experience that isn't very pleasant. I came to Erhai Lake to relax, but I didn’t expect to get beaten up, oh well…” Lu Mingchu mumbled to himself.

The woman beside him, her eyes welling with guilt: "Alright alright, I'll accompany you to stroll through Dali Ancient City as an apology."

"Ah!" Lu Ming exclaimed in surprise, then a blush crept onto his face. "This is too much trouble... I'm putting you in an awkward position."

"Can you drive I'll go downstairs first, and you change your clothes and come down. I'll wait for you downstairs." She said that and left.

Lu Ming looked at her back, a hint of triumph flashing in his dark eyes.ough when Shen Xiujin asked this question, everyone around him was shocked and the surrounding discussions buzzed with “Wouldn’t President Shen be standing up for her”, Jian Tong understood too clearl...
