Chapter 34: 034. Inviting her to be a female companion
When he saw Qiao Xu frowning impatiently and preparing to leave, he quickly stopped her and blurted out, “There’s a business cocktail party tomorrow night; come as my female companion.”
As soon as those words came out, he saw Qiao Xu looking at him with a strange expression, as if she were looking at an alien.
Feeling uneasy under her gaze, his eyes, which should have been full of righteous indignation, were inexplicably tinged with a hint of guilt.
In Qiao Xu’s memory, Lu Moqing’s female companion at banquets had always been his sister, Lu Xintong because he had never acknowledged her as his wife and thus naturally wouldn’t let her appear as his female companion at the banquets.
Back then, Qiao Xu only wanted to be with Lu Moqing for the rest of her life, and this status didn’t matter at all.
However, over time, she gradually realized that staying with Lu Moqing was much more difficult than obtaining the title of Madam Lu.
“Lu Xintong is in the hospital now, and there’s still Su Rou, isn’t there? She’s been by your side for so long, and you’re still planning to keep her hidden like a treasure? Although the Qiao Family doesn’t acknowledge her, it should be very easy for President Lu to get her into the Lu Family.”
He had always prevented her from exposing their husband-wife relationship and never had any rumored girlfriends. Wasn’t it just to wait for the day when he could give the title of Madam Lu to Su Rou intact?
“President Lu, are you not worried others will discover our relationship if I become your female companion?”
Qiao Xu smirked sarcastically, “People in the marketplace are all very smart; President Lu, don’t make any rash decisions.”
How could Lu Moqing possibly lack female companions?
Even without Lu Xintong or Su Rou, there were probably countless women who were eager to be Lu Moqing’s female companion. When would it be Qiao Xu’s turn?
Lu Moqing was left speechless by Qiao Xu’s words.
It was he who didn’t allow her to reveal their husband-wife relationship in the first place. If he were to bring Qiao Xu this time, people would definitely investigate her background.
For those seasoned individuals in the marketplace, this wouldn’t be difficult. Once someone starts digging, they would inevitably find out about his relationship with Qiao Xu.
At this moment, he wasn’t worried that their relationship would be exposed. In fact, there was even a hidden sense of anticipation deep in his heart.
Seeing that Lu Moqing remained silent, probably because of her earlier words, Qiao Xu smirked sarcastically. She didn’t look at Lu Moqing again and left with determined steps.
This time, Lu Moqing didn’t follow her. He just watched Qiao Xu leave in silence, his heart beginning to feel lost. Was his constant refusal to sign the divorce agreement really just because he wanted to fight with Qiao Xu?
He was clearly so disgusted and hateful towards her, yet every time he heard her urging him to divorce, he felt a familiar panic in his heart.
So much so that he completely forgot that he came to the hospital to question Qiao Xu about the origin of that “wild man.”

In order to figure out his true feelings for Qiao Xu, Lu Moqing didn’t visit her at the hospital for a whole week, nor did he even take a glance at Lu Xintong.
He thought that in doing so, he would be able to truly understand his own heart, but he forgot that over the four years Qiao Xu was gone, he had still not sorted out his feelings, let alone in just a few days.
By the time he appeared at the hospital again, it was already a week later.
