Chapter 235 - Why Did You Coldly Ignore Me? Give Me A Reason
He intentionally softened his tone, and it brought along a hint of pamper, and also… coyness.
The girl did not bother with him.
Not only that, she even took a few steps towards the glass counter, and she distanced herself far away from him.
Lu Shaoming looked at the counter. There were potato slices that were cut up nicely, mushrooms on the exquisite meal tray… and there were vegetables in the vegetable basket, vermicelli….
There was a clay pot boiling bone soup, and the smell of the soup was fragrant and thick. She used her small white hands to stir the liquid in the pot with a pair of chopsticks, and the fragrance was able to whet anyone’s appetite.
Her father said that her culinary skills were merely average… and he was totally being humble.
It seemed like her culinary skills seemed very good… In his opinion, they were enough for him.
“Ning Qing.” He took out his large hand from the pocket of his trousers and slowly placed it on her small soft waist. “I am hungry…I.”
…
Lu Shaoming went back to his own condominium unit, and on the entire way there, he thought that the girl better not end up in his hands, or not she would get it from him.
He would guarantee that he would bully her until she couldn’t take it.
He opened the door of the condominium in fury, and his condominium was all cold and quiet. Before meeting her, he enjoyed this feeling of loneliness, and now that he had her, he suddenly had a rash thought of bringing her back home.
Today, he saw her put on an apron and cook in the kitchen. It was so warm, and he suddenly wanted to have a small family with her.
But that girl was unwilling to let him have a taste of her cooking.
Hmph, how petty.
The darkness in his mind instantly became bright, and the living room in his condominium unit was brightly lit. He walked inside, and Song Yajing brought Zhou Zhilei over.
“Shaoming, you are back.”
“Older Brother Ming, it is perfect that you are back. You probably haven’t had dinner yet, right? Aunt and I brought a meal for you.” Zhou Zhilei placed the exquisite dishes onto the dinner table and said, “Older Brother Ming, this is what Aunt ordered the cooks at home to prepare specially for you; it is your favorite.”
Lu Shaoming had his car keys in his hands, and did not look at the dining table or Zhou Zhilei. His black eyes looked plainly at Song Yajing, “Mum, what do you want?”
“Nothing much. I just wanted to come and look at you. Shaoming, both you and Zhilei…”
“Now that you have seen me, ” Lu Shaoming turned sideways and made a pleading gesture with his hands. “Since you have seen me, you can leave. I still have work to complete.”
“Shaoming, you!”
“Mum, after you leave, you should close the door behind you. Thank you.” Lu Shaoming went directly into his own bedroom.
Song Yajing bit down on her teeth in anger, and Zhou Zhilei awkwardly froze on the spot.
…
Lu Shaoming went to the bathroom to take a shower. He wrapped a towel around his waist as he walked out. He knelt down using one leg on the bed and took his phone in his palm to have a look; there were no messages.
Lu Shaoming lifted his eyebrows. That girl…
He dialed a number.
“Hello, Secretary Zhu, help me investigate what Ning Qing did today, and who she met with. Also, investigate the motorcyclist who knocked down Ning Qing’s mother today.”
After ending the call, he threw his phone on the bed, and he grabbed a navy blue knitted wool sweater from the cabinet beside the bed along with a pair of black casual pants. He lost the sharp and coldness from his usual formal attire, and it accentuated more of his elegant and educated demeanour.
He stood at the counter of the room and poured a glass of a French collector’s premium bottle of Château Lafite red wine. He placed one hand in the pocket of his trousers. Another hand was holding the wine glass while he stood before the windows. Outside the sparkling bright glass windows was the entire city that was lit up with endless lights.
He shook the glass, and he lazily tilted it at a 45 degree angle to look at the red wine under the tilt. Sometimes, women were just like red wine. They required status and ability for a man to taste their flavour.
All he could picture in his mind was her tiny exquisite face. There was a non stop flow of energy that was on her body. She was so fresh and stubborn. She attracted his gaze and made him mesmerized.
He never thought that he would meet a girl who was out of his control in his entire life.
He took a small sip of the red wine and he placed the wine glass on the counter. He took his phone into his hands again, tapped on Baby’s WeChat, and he sent a text message. [I am hungry, really.]
Ning Qing, who was accompanying her mother, received a text from him saying that he was hungry, and her beautiful red lips slowly curled up into a smile…
Lu Shaoming, who was in the condominium unit, could not get any reply from the girl, and he circled around the room a few times repeatedly. Was she really angry with him?
Then okay, he really would not eat tonight!
Little rascal!
At this moment, a Ding! rang through the condo; someone had rung the doorbell.
His eyes brightened up, and he quickly went to open the door to open the main door.
But there was no surprise outside the door, and the girl was not there either.
Lu Shaoming glanced at the deliveryman outside the door. He had a clay pot filled with kelp and black chicken soup, a bowl of white rice, and two other refreshing side dishes.
“Sir, your food delivery is here.”
Lu Shaoming shook his head and said, ” I didn’t order anything.”
“Is that right? Could I have gotten it wrong?” The delivery man muttered to himself softly, and he turned around, “Maybe I have really gotten it wrong. This had been ordered by a girl.”
Lu Shaoming, who was preparing to close the door, heard his words and quickly called out to stop that person, “Who ordered this?”
“Oh, it was a girl. Her voice was especially easy on the ears.”
Lu Shaoming curled up the corners of his lips, and there was a hint of satisfaction in his eyes as he said, “Then it is right. Give it to me then. This is what my girlfriend ordered for me.”
He closed the door, and Lu Shaoming sat on the chair in the dining room. He opened the WeChat app and sent a message. [Okay then, although I was very angry just now, would you have lunch with me tomorrow?]
Ning Qing did not reply, and she pressed the phone under the pillow, then she shut her eyes and went to sleep.
…
The next day, in the President’s office in Guang Qing
Zhu Rui handed the documents in his hands over to Lu Shaoming and said, “President, I have followed your orders and investigated that motorcyclist. There were not many problems, and it was just a normal traffic accident, and also Miss Ning did not behave abnormally. She went back to work per usual. Her mother was involved in a traffic accident, and she rushed to the hospital, and then she went home.”
