I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 424 Show Your Sincerity

At this moment, Shen Lang's mind was completely elsewhere.

The only thing on his mind was going to the Lu family to visit Lu Zhenhua.

The reason is nothing else but that he has always wanted to be closer to Wang Xueqin. If by chance, the target is changed to Lu Mengping or even Lu Ruping, that would be a dream come true.

With this in mind, Shen Lang drove towards the Lu family mansion.

When the Lu family's servants saw him coming, they hurriedly bowed respectfully and greeted him respectfully, "How are you, Mr. Shen?"

Shen Lang looked calm as he asked, "Is the Commander home? I have something urgent to discuss with him."

The servant quickly responded, "Reporting to Mr. Shen, the master and the young master have gone out and haven't returned yet, but the mistress is at home."

Shen Lang was secretly delighted and said hurriedly, "It's okay to look for Madam."

He had been thinking to himself that if Lu Zhenhua was at home, it would take some effort to create an opportunity for him to be alone with Wang Xueqin or Lu Mengping.

Now that Lu Zhenhua is not at home, this is truly a godsend.

Seeing this, the servant hurriedly said, "Mr. Shen, please follow me. I will go and inform the lady."

The afternoon sun shines softly through the mottled leaves into the Lu family's spacious living room.

Shen Lang sat leisurely on the sofa, sipping tea.

Just at this moment, a crisp sound of footsteps came from far away.

Shen Lang raised his eyes and saw Wang Xueqin walking towards him with a graceful figure.

Wang Xueqin walked gracefully into the living room, then turned and said to the servant behind her, "Ahfu, please leave first. Mr. Shen and I are going to the study to discuss important matters. No one is allowed to enter without my permission. If the master returns, remember to notify me immediately."

"Yes, ma'am." Ah Fu responded and left.

Wang Xueqin looked up at Shen Lang who was sitting on the sofa, her heart beating violently in her chest.

Although she has always been the focus of attention in Shanghai's social circles with her beauty and charm.

But when facing Shen Lang, she knew in her heart that she had to find a way to make him fall in love with her in order to consolidate her position in his heart.

Thinking of this, Wang Xueqin said in a delicate voice: "Mr. Shen, since the master is not at home today, I will entertain you. I hope Mr. Shen will not be offended."

Shen Lang slowly put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes wandering slowly over Wang Xueqin. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this woman was indeed born into a family of actors, and every move she made was a performance.

He smiled and responded, "It's okay, it's the same even if the madam is here."

Wang Xueqin's eyes were full of charm as she asked softly, "I wonder why Mr. Shen wants to see me? Last time, the master specifically instructed that if Mr. Shen comes, he must be given a good reception."

As she spoke, she slowly sat down next to Shen Lang and whispered, "Mr. Shen, you are finally willing to come to see me."

Shen Lang asked, "If I don't come to find you, won't you come to find me?"

Wang Xueqin said, "I'm afraid your wife will beat me up, and then I'll be humiliated."

Shen Lang chuckled and shook his head, saying, "How is that possible? But Old Lu could be back at any time, so I think we should hurry up and talk business."

Wang Xueqin nodded slightly and said, "It's inevitable that the servants will see us here. Let's go to the master's study. Not many people dare to go in there, and it also fits your excuse to discuss things."

"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful. In that case, let's go to the study." Shen Lang nodded in response.

As soon as she entered the study, Wang Xueqin closed the door and turned to stand opposite Shen Lang.

Shen Lang gently embraced her with both hands and carried her to Lu Zhenhua's large desk.

It only takes a few seconds to make him be honest with himself.

Just as he was about to conduct a surprise inspection, there was a knock on the study door.

Bang bang bang!
Then, an urgent voice came: "Mom, Mom, I have something to talk to you about..."

Wang Xueqin was so frightened that her face turned pale instantly. She almost screamed and quickly covered her mouth with her hands. Then she whispered, "It's Ruping! What should I do?"

Shen Lang quickly looked around and immediately came up with an idea. He whispered, "Hide under the desk quickly."

There was a partition in front of Lu Zhenhua's desk, so even if Lu Ruping came in, it would be difficult for her to see what was under the desk.

At this time, Wang Xueqin was at a loss. She hurriedly picked up the clothes scattered on the ground, then bent down and hid under the desk.

Shen Lang quickly tidied his clothes and quickly unlocked the study door.

Then he quickly sat up straight in the chair behind the desk.

He lowered his head slightly and saw Wang Xueqin looking at him nervously under the table. He nodded slightly, signaling her to calm down.

And Kiel released it, whispering, "Oh."

Wang Xueqin spoke obediently.

But he hesitated and dared not speak.

The next moment, the door of the study was pushed open by Lu Ruping.

The moment she opened the door and saw Shen Lang, Lu Ruping asked, "Hello, Mr. Shen, have you seen my mother? I have something to ask her."

Shen Lang wore a gentle smile on his face and said to Lu Ruping, "Miss Lu, you've come just in time. My wife just had some urgent matters and probably won't be back for a while. I wanted to discuss a business matter with your father, but since he's not here, and you're the daughter of the Lu family and have a wide range of experience, why don't we talk in this study? Maybe you can give me some advice."

As Shen Lang spoke, he secretly paid attention to Wang Xueqin's movements under the table, looking forward to how the scene would develop next.

Lu Ruping was slightly stunned, and a hint of hesitation flashed across her face.

She had come to find her mother in great anxiety, but after hearing what Shen Lang said, she didn't know what to do.

She looked up at Shen Lang and saw that he looked calm and didn't seem to be lying. Although she was a little confused, she felt it was not easy to refuse directly.

"Well... well, Mr. Shen, I wonder what you want to talk to me about?" Lu Ruping asked softly, walking into the study, looking around inconspicuously, trying to find her mother.

She couldn't help but wonder in her heart, her mother has always been very particular about etiquette, why would she suddenly leave the guest alone in the study and leave?
Moreover, she always felt that there was a strange atmosphere in the study, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Wang Xueqin, who was sitting at the table, felt her heart almost in her throat.

She curled up in the small space, not daring to breathe.

When she heard Shen Lang asked Lu Ruping to stay and discuss things, she was shocked and scared, and secretly cursed Shen Lang's audacity in her heart.

She knew very well that her current situation was extremely embarrassing, and if she was not careful, she might be ruined.

She kept thinking about how to deal with it if Ru Ping found out and how to make up a reasonable excuse.

At the same time, she was angry at Shen Lang's behavior, feeling that he completely disregarded her own safety in order to satisfy his own selfish desires.

But at the moment, she had no choice but to hope that Shen Lang could stabilize the situation and not reveal any flaws.

Shen Lang pointed to the chair in front of the desk and motioned Lu Ruping to sit down.

"Ms. Lu, this is the case. I recently have an investment project. I mentioned it to your father before and wanted to hear his opinion. Now is a good time. Can you give me some advice?" Shen Lang began to talk about the project in a torrent of words.

But his eyes would occasionally glance under the table, observing Wang Xueqin's reaction, while also paying attention to Lu Ruping's expression.

He knew in his heart that this was not an easy scene to perform, and any slight mistake could cause a huge uproar.

But the adventurous spirit in his bones made him feel extremely excited. While talking about the project, he was thinking about how to cleverly divert Lu Ruping's attention so that she would not notice anything unusual under the table.

Lu Ruping tried hard to concentrate on listening to Shen Lang's story, but her mind always drifted elsewhere unconsciously.

Because she vaguely smelled a familiar perfume, it was the brand her mother often used.

"Mr. Shen, the project you mentioned sounds really good, but I don't know much about business, so I may not be able to give you very professional advice." Lu Ruping said, her eyes scanning the study again, trying to find some clues from the surrounding environment.
