After their meal, Zi Yi had the housekeeping robot clean the bowls and cutlery in the kitchen while they sat on the sofa.
Lu Jingye asked, “Who is cooking for you at the moment?”
Zi Yi felt that Lu Jingye was like a parent who is constantly worried about his kid at home. His expression and tone did not allow one’s thoughts to wander.
She did not felt like answering him properly the moment she saw such a serious expression from him.
“No one. I can only order take out.”
She deliberately sat closer to him. “Lu Jingye, since you’re so fond of being a busybody, why don’t you simply take care of my meals?”
Zi Yi had to admit that Lu Jingye’s cooking fit her tastebuds. It made her crave for more despite having eaten.
Lu Jingye looked at the young lady’s glowing eyes. He closed his eyes to ponder for a moment before nodding.
He certainly does not have much time to cook for her, but it was not feasible for her to order takeouts every day. In that case, he shall let the housekeeper deliver food every day.
Zi Yi did not know of Lu Jingye’s thoughts. She was immediately delighted when he nodded.
“Lu Jingye, you’re such a nice person. I have nothing to repay you with. Why don’t I…”
Zi Yi’s eyes checked him up and down, and felt her urges stirring when she saw him acting like a parent.
“It’ll suffice as long as you protect yourself and don’t give those men the opportunity to approach you.”
Zi Yi was silent for a moment before she said, “What if I fall for a man? Don’t tell me you still want me to maintain distance with him?”
Lu Jingye fell silent for some time and replied, “As long as you ensure that he has no bad intentions towards you.”
Zi Yi could not resist the impulse and directly pounced on him.
Her legs straddled his knees, with one hand holding his shoulder and the other on the sofa.
Lu Jingye never expected Zi Yi to pounce on him and evidently, he was stunned.
Zi Yi curled her lips and said, “Lu Jingye, even my father hasn’t restricted me like this. You’re even more nosy than my father. Did you fall for me?”
After that, she added. “But it doesn’t matter whether you like me or not. I’ve decided to kiss you.”
After which, she lowered her head and pressed her lips against his.
Two pairs of lips pressed together.
Two pairs of eyes looked into each other.
Their breathing intertwined and suddenly, their heartbeats skipped.
At that moment, Zi Yi felt her waist being tugged. Immediately after, she was lifted and placed to the side.
Lu Jingye stood up and looked at her with a frown. With a solemn expression, he said, “Not everyone can handle such a joke. Have you ever thought, what if a man falls for you due to this kiss? Would you marry him?”
“How is that possible!”
Zi Yi saw Lu Jingye’s pursed lips and thought to herself, “How could I casually play such a joke with a random man?”
Lu Jingye knew she only kissed him out of curiosity. After a few seconds, he said, “It’s getting late. You should sleep early.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he turned to leave and left at once.
Zi Yi glanced at the departing back view and leaned against the sofa. She then looked up at the ceiling and muttered, “I finally wanted to do something with a man but I didn’t expect to be met with such a setback. This is too depressing!”
Hey old fogey, it’s not like you will lose anything with a kiss.
You’re making it seem as if I’m a pervert!
After Lu Jingye returned to his residence, the first thing he did was to call for the housekeeper. “In the future, deliver every meal to Zi Yi when she’s at home.”
The housekeeper was surprised and puzzled. He tried his best to keep calm on the surface and answered, “I understand, Second Young Master.”
Lu Jingye walked upstairs. Just as he got to the stairs, he received an email from Qin Yi.
He opened the email and saw the investigation result of Zi Yi.
A trace of displeasure streaked past his eyes when he saw it.
