From Villain to Cherished: Counter My Role by Pampering Kids-Chapter 199 - 198 Extra Story (2)

The next day, around noon.

Su Xingwan entered Mr. Lu's company with a lunchbox in hand.

The receptionists on the first floor immediately flashed professional smiles upon seeing her.

"Hello, Miss Su!"

Su Xingwan nodded politely and walked toward the elevator, while the receptionists continued to watch her as she entered the private elevator for the CEO.

Once the elevator doors closed, the new receptionist curiously asked, "Is that Mr. Lu's girlfriend? She's really pretty!"

Su Xingwan went straight to the top floor. As soon as she entered his office, he pulled her into an embrace.

Today, his gaze on her seemed different, almost as if he was a bit unhappy.

So she put down the lunchbox and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yun said, "I saw the new drama you filmed today."

Su Xingwan laughed and asked, "How's it? Is it good?"

"Not good."

Su Xingwan retorted, "What's not good about it? It's clearly very popular!"

Lu Yun held her hand and squinted slightly, "... Who is that Zhang Zheng?"

Su Xingwan replied, "You're talking about the male lead in my new drama."

"...Hmm," he responded lowly.

Su Xingwan wrapped her arms around his neck, laughing and said,

"We're just co-acting, not close at all."

Lu Yun's eyes were fixed on her, "Can't you stop acting? I'll find another job for you."

Su Xingwan shook her head, "No, I love acting, you can't stop me."

Lu Yun said, "But you had a kissing scene with the male actor."

Su Xingwan was startled, then covered her mouth with a laugh, "How can you even be jealous of that? It's just a staged angle, there was no real kiss."

"Still not okay, if you continue acting, no more kissing scenes or any intimate scenes." To make it hard for her to argue, he added, "You signed with the Wen Family's entertainment company, you could sign with my company afterward, they wouldn't dare to disobey your requests."

Su Xingwan hummed,

"...You're being a bit shameless."

"So do you agree?" Lu Yun's dark eyes stared at her intently.

Su Xingwan looked into his eyes that one could easily get lost in, "I can agree, but I'm already an artist with my own company, how could I sign with two companies simultaneously?"

Lu Yun said, "Your sister will be willing."

Su Xingwan was about to say something else when he sealed her lips with his, kissing her eagerly, and she tried to push him away.

But then she heard his slightly panting voice in her ear, "You're only allowed to do this with me, not even fake ones with anyone else."

His words were strong-willed and domineering.

After some intimate moments, Su Xingwan pushed him away, "Shouldn't you eat now? It'll get cold otherwise."

Hearing this, Lu Yun reluctantly let her go.

Today's lunch was quite lavish; Su Xingwan had made two new dishes, but the taste was still average. She didn't have much talent in cooking, yet Lu Yun savored it with delight.

After eating, Lu Yun said, "Xingwan, when will you marry me?"

Su Xingwan heard this and replied, "Isn't it... too soon?"

"It's not soon anymore." He grabbed her hand and squeezed it.

Looking at her, "If you agree, will you come with me to the Lu Family's old house?"

Su Xingwan glared at him, "Why are you in such a hurry!"

Lu Yun answered without hesitation, "Of course, I'm in a hurry."

Su Xingwan turned her head away, "Let me think about it."

Lu Yun leaned to her ear and said in a low voice, "Just don't make me wait too long."

Then, pulling her hand, he asked, "Do you want to come downstairs with me for a walk today?"

Su Xingwan looked up, "To meet your employees?"

"Yes, you're the future lady boss here, of course they should meet you."

Su Xingwan replied, "I'd rather not go, I don't want to be stared at like a zoo animal."

Lu Yun remained silent.

Seeing this, Su Xingwan asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yun honestly said, "Regarding things about me, you always want to keep it secret, as if I'm some hidden lover you're ashamed of."

Su Xingwan: "..."

"You're just overthinking it."

Lu Yun said, "You don't want to go to the Lu family, you don't let me show up at your drama sets or press conferences, and now you don't even want to meet my company's employees."

Su Xingwan: "..."

"I've told you the reasons, and it's not like I don't want to go to the Lu family."

Lu Yun looked at her, "But you're not anxious at all."

Su Xingwan tried to argue, "You don't have a good relationship with your father, and I haven't seen you care about visiting the Lu family, so naturally..."

Lu Yun replied, "But you know what going to the Lu Family's old house signifies."

Su Xingwan was at a loss, opened her mouth, "Alright, you win, I'll go meet Old Madam Lu with you tomorrow."

Hearing this, Lu Yun smiled.

Continuing to press the subject he just raised, "So, do you want to go downstairs now?"

"No," Su Xingwan immediately said.

She stood up and started packing the empty lunch box, "Don't even think about getting an inch when you take a mile."

"Fine, no means no." Lu Yun wisely took a step back.

However, even though Su Xingwan didn't want to visit his company's employee area, everyone in the company already knew about her existence.

The company was a hub of gossip, especially gossip concerning their top leader.

From the very first day Su Xingwan came to Mr. Lu's company to deliver lunch, gossip quickly spread throughout the company.

After all, who wouldn't know that their Mr. Lu was a workaholic, and supposedly had no time for romance. When those three kids frequently visited Mr. Lu, employees sensed a scent of something brewing, and their Mr. Lu was definitely going to have a partner.

Sure enough, later on, Mr. Lu was reportedly researching recipe books in the top-floor office every day to woo a woman.

Their ever-devoted Mr. Lu prepared three meals a day and had them delivered.

How did they know about this? Of course, the assistants and secretaries on the top floor told them.

The receptionists on the first floor could see a delivery guy with a lunchbox coming down the private elevator every day.

"Did you know? That famous celebrity Su Xingwan came to see Mr. Lu again?"

"Did she come to give Mr. Lu lunch again?"

"They really are something; Mr. Lu used to deliver every day before pursuing her, and now that they're together, it's the girlfriend sending lunch every day."

"That's how men are, doing everything they can to charm the woman before getting them, and afterward, it's the woman trying to please the man every day."

"Ahem, our Mr. Lu is not just any man; he's handsome and wealthy, any woman would hesitate to let go and want to cherish him." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"I disagree, Miss Su is said to be a beauty with wealth too, and I heard she is the Wen Family's treasured gem."

"True, although I haven't seen her in person, I've seen her on TV, she's a super beauty! No wonder Mr. Lu went to such lengths to pursue her."

"I once left work early and happened to see her on the first floor, she's even prettier in person than on TV, our Mr. Lu is really fortunate."

"Sigh... I wonder when Mr. Lu will bring his girlfriend down for us to meet."

"Oh, surely he cherishes her so much that he's reluctant to bring her down."

"What a pity..."

Meanwhile, up on the top floor, Su Xingwan was oblivious to the gossip below, busy making a dessert for herself in the kitchen, and made one for Lu Yun as well.

Later, she found some recipe books Lu Yun used in the cabinet and took one out to flip through.

"So these are the recipe books you used to make all those different meals for me almost every day?"

Lu Yun: "...Yeah. Do you want to use them?"

Su Xingwan: "I won't, I don't have the knack for it."

She looked at him, "By the way, how about you let me bring less food next time?"

Lu Yun: "Why?"

"Because it's not tasty, and when the three little ones aren't around, I usually just order takeout. But coming here, I have to cook for you."
