Butler Ye was slightly stunned. He felt that the current Sir was like a petulant kid who wanted candy he was denied.
“Sir, I think that deep down, Madam Xuanji still loves you.”
Still loved him?
No, she didn’t love him anymore.
She slapped him even when he gave her a kiss. She didn’t want him anymore.
But that didn’t matter. He was going to get her.
Lu Jinwen polished off his wine in one gulp, and continued pouring more. “It seems as though the Lin father-daughter pair can no longer sit still.”
“That’s right Sir, Old Master Lin and Lin Xuanyin are really both at their wits end. To think they actually thought of using Xiaorou as a ploy. They definitely don’t know that you tricked them in return.”
Regarding the issue of Bangkok 1, it had been too many years and it was impossible to find any traces. When Butler Ye told Lu Jinwen this, the latter only told him lightly to stop investigating and to sit and wait.
Because he had waited, Xiaorou had come into play. That day, Lu Jinwen had indeed been drunk. Butler Ye wasn’t there yet and Xiaorou had gotten there first. In the hotel room, he had sobered up when Xiaorou touched him
All these years, he had only been with Lin Xuanji.
He wouldn’t have to wait so long if some random woman could just climb into his bed.
All this time, he had always been waiting for Lin Xuanji.
Regardless of how many years she was asleep, or the three years that she had vanished, he had always been waiting for her.
That day in the car, he had asked Lin Xuanji if she craved the company of men. She had given him a tight slap.
The red streaks on his face had already vanished. His lips curved upwards. He was the only one thinking of her.
He missed her.
In his frivolous younger days, he had imprisoned her in that seaview bungalow. His life revolved around his office and her. He only wanted to do it with every night.
When she gave birth to Mo’er and Chenyi, there was no need for her to breastfeed them. She wanted to pump her milk out, but he refused, and flung her onto the bed after he shut the door.
How could he have possibly known at that time that the short period of indulgence would be followed by a long period of waiting? Any longer, and he would turn into an ascetic monk.
He missed her so much.
Especially at night.
“Sir, Old Master Lin has gone crazy thinking about your money. You didn’t even touch Xiaorou the other night, so he let Xiaorou sleep with another man. He even dared pass her kid off as yours when she got pregnant.”
Lu Jinwen’s lips curved upwards slowly. It was true that he wanted a son. But he only wanted Lin Xuanji to give birth to his son. There was no way a woman like Xiaorou could ever have his son.
“Let them run around like headless chickens for a few days. I’ll deal with them during the party.” Lu Jinwen drank another glass of wine.
“Yes, sir.” Butler Ye wanted to stand down, but stopped in his tracks. Sir had been drinking excessively lately. Anymore, and his body wouldn’t be able to take it.
“Sir, please drink a little less. This isn’t good for your body…”
The wine bottle in Lu Jinwen’s hands was already empty. He went to take another bottle of white wine. This one was a bottle with a high alcohol content.
He opened the bottle and threw Butler Ye a light look. “Who are you to tell me what to do? Stand down!”
Butler Ye remained silent. He didn’t dare speak another word and retreated respectfully.
Perhaps Madam Xuanji was the only one who could instruct Sir right now.
…
Lu family party.
Xiaorou stood under the brilliantly-lit main hall. The people here were all the wealthy families of the Capital. She gave a satisfied smile and rubbed her hands over her belly. This baby was going lead her to prosperity.
She looked up, searching for that tall figure. Lu Jinwen stood in the brightly-lit main hall, one hand in his pockets. He was surrounded by a few CEOs, and stood high above everyone else like an emperor. All eyes were on him.
At this moment, Old Master Lin walked in with Lin Xuanyin. “Jinwen, congratulations on having a son!”
Lu Jinwen nodded indifferently.
At this moment, there was a commotion. Someone had arrived. Raising his eyes to take a look, Lu Jinwen saw that it was Lin Xuanji.
She actually came!
Lu Jinwen’s expression changed immediately. He didn’t invite her, so what was she here for?
And she was here alone.
Today, Lin Xuanji was in a long, champagne-colored dress, her long, silky hair twisted up casually. Her figure was stunning, attracting everyone’s gaze the moment she entered.
“Look, isn’t that Madam Xuanji?”
“My gosh, it really is Madam Xuanji. Madam Xuanji is here!”
“It’s been so many years since anyone last saw Madam Xuanji. She really hasn’t changed at all and is still as elegant as everyone remembers her to be.”
Sensing everyone’s gaze on her, Lu Jinwen quickly pressed his lips together in displeasure. He wanted to walk over.
But there were people faster than him. A few CEOs already surrounded her.
Lin Xuanji was surrounded by a crowd quickly, the bright light only illuminating her beautiful features. She was talking to a few of the CEOs, laughing lightly. Everywhere she went, she exuded an aura of grace and charm. It was as though she hadn’t changed at all.
Lin Xuanyin and Xiaorou’s expression changed drastically. No one had expected Lin Xuanji to actually come.
She immediately became the focus the moment she arrived.
Frozen on the spot, Lu Jinwen’s expression turned dark quickly as several men had gotten to her first. He wanted these men to vanish from the earth immediately.
At this moment, Lin Xuanji who was surrounded raised her eyes to look at him.
“I’m sorry, but please excuse me for a moment.” Lin Xuanji excused herself from the crowd and walked over to him.
In moments, Lu Jinwen and Lin Xuanji met in the middle of the main hall, under the brilliant lights. All eyes turned to them. Time seemed to have left no trace on these two, who had once captivated the Capital as its king and queen. They were still as eye-catching as they were all those years ago.
Lu Jinwen looked at Lin Xuanji and frowned. “Why are you here?”
Lin Xuanji’s red lips curved upwards. “I heard you have a son now. Of course I want to be here.”
As Lu Jinwen lifted his sculpted jaw, he let out a cold humpf. “Lin Xuanji, are you the Virgin Mary? You speak as though you’re giving birth to this son for me.”
“If I have given birth to a son for you, that would be Chenyi.”
As these words settled in his mind Lu Jinwen suddenly reached out with his large palms, wrapping them around her slender wrists as he pulled her over. His low voice turned stern. “Lin Xuanji, what do you mean by that?”
A gasp sounded out. Everyone stared at this scene in shock. Lu Jinwen had pulled Lin Xuanji into his embrace!
Lin Xuanyin’s expression changed. She looked over at Xiaorou quickly.
Xiaorou suddenly understood her intentions. She wrapped her hands around her stomach and started crying out, “Ah, my stomach hurts!”
Barely sparing a sideways glance at Xiaorou, Lin Xuanji then raised her eyebrows at Lu Jinwen. “Quick, go help your son.”
But Lu Jinwen didn’t move. Instead, he pulled Lin Xuanji behind his back, using his broad shoulders to block her sight. “Don’t look!”
At this moment, a gush of red blood flowed out from between Xiaorou’s legs.
