after awhile.

Xu Wuning was feeling a bit hungry for coffee, and she was about to call out towards the door, "Secretary Liu..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Jingci suddenly darted out from the corner.

He had already grabbed her coffee cup, his expression one of obsequious sycophancy, "Ningning, let me pour you some..."

He ran out quickly, and a few minutes later he came back in and put the coffee on the table.

"Ningning, have a taste."

Xu Wuning glanced at him. He smiled, placed the coffee down, and stood to the side, waiting for instructions like a restaurant waiter. His gaze was upright and sincere, and he did not make any other abrupt moves.

Xu Wuning felt uncomfortable being stared at, and finally managed to blurt out, "...Don't stand next to me and stare like that, I can't drink."

Lu Jingci immediately took two steps back, retreating to the corner of the wall, still watching with a smile.

Xu Wuning: "...Retreat a little more."

Lu Jingci took two more steps back, his back pressed against the wall.

Xu Wuning: "...Alright."

Although she was suspicious, she had no reason to kick him out.

It was almost noon by then.

Lu Jingci, all excited, had prepared the meal in advance and brought over a lunchbox. "Ningning, this is the food I just had someone order. It's all your favorite dishes."

"Try it quickly, it won't taste good when it gets cold."

While Xu Wuning was eating, he didn't eat and instead tidied up his things.

He put everything his assistant had just brought over into the drawer.

While preparing it, she muttered to herself, "This is brown sugar ginger tea. You can take it from here when you have your period in a few days. There are also hand warmers. I've prepared them in advance."

"This is a neck massager. If you spend a long time in the office and your neck feels uncomfortable, wear this."

"This is unsweetened coffee, and this is warm tea. I've labeled them with sticky notes. Just call me which one you'd like, and I'll make you some tea."

Then he started flipping through the documents on the table, sitting there carefully making revisions. "Ningning, you put a question mark on this because you don't understand it? I'll write it down for you."

"Ningning, the data here doesn't match the previous version. I've highlighted it in red..."

"Ningning, this place..."

So, all morning, Lu Jingci helped out in every way, acting like a personal assistant, running around and helping to hand things over.

Xu Wuning really wanted to say, "Can you please stop getting in my way?", but she couldn't find an opportunity to speak because this guy kept babbling on and on.

Just as she was about to speak, he handed her a pen.

Just as she was about to open her mouth, he brought her another glass of water.

She was completely overwhelmed by his "services," and all the words she was about to say were swallowed back down.

Xu Wuning felt restless and got up to go to the president's private restroom.

The door had barely closed for two seconds when Lu Jingci's voice came from outside. He cautiously asked through the door, "Ningning, do you need me to hand you some tissues?"

"I'm here watching over things. If you need any help, just let me know."

Xu Wuning: "..."

She yelled at the door, "Are you crazy? Why are you following me to the bathroom? You might as well just do it for me!"

It's quiet outside.

A few seconds later, a weak voice came through again: "Um... do you need some hand sanitizer?"

Xu Wuning decided not to speak to him for the rest of the day; this guy seemed to have lost his mind.

She returned to her office, picked up a contract, and intended to go upstairs to find her father.

Lu Jingci immediately picked up a contract and followed her around like a little ghost.

In the afternoon, during a company meeting, a room full of senior executives sat there.

After Lu Jingci came in, he first wiped Xu Wuning's chair with his sleeve, then stepped aside and said, "Ningning, it's clean now, you can sit down."

Xu Wuning sat down.

Two minutes later, Lu Jingci came closer again: "Ningning, are you thirsty? Here's some warm water."

A few minutes later, "Ningning, this pen isn't working well. I've prepared a new one for you."

"Ningning, look at this..."

The high-ranking officials in the room exchanged glances, then lowered their heads and pretended to be very busy.

After the meeting ended.

As soon as Xu Wuning got up, Lu Jingci followed her.

His voice came from the hallway outside, "Ningning, do you want me to help you walk?"

"Get out of the way, you're not an ancient eunuch, why are you helping me up?"

Lu Jingci wasn't annoyed by the scolding and continued to follow behind. "Ningning, let me help you with your notebook. It's too heavy."

Company executives: "..."

Can someone tell them why the aloof and refined President Lu behaves like this in front of President Xu?

Xu Zhenghong: "..."

For some reason, he had always disliked Lu Jingci. Now, it seemed to him that Lu Jingci was acting like a slave in front of his daughter.

Do young people these days like this kind of style?

In the office, when Lu Jingci spoke again, Xu Wuning finally couldn't hold back any longer.

She squinted, gritted her teeth, and said, "I think I kicked your crotch, not your brain. And what's wrong with your brain too?"

"Lu Jingci, you're very strange."

Lu Jingci looked at her seriously: "Where exactly is the strangeness? I'll revise it."

Xu Wuning was stunned for a moment, then put down her pen: "This is even stranger, you actually changed it?"

"Why do you suddenly seem normal, not so slutty anymore? What mischief are you up to now?"

Lu Jingci maintained a righteous and gentlemanly demeanor: "I'm innocent! I absolutely had no bad intentions."

"I just want to sincerely apologize. Don't worry, I won't force you to make any choices anymore, I won't interfere in anything you do, and I won't force you to do anything."

"I know I was wrong, terribly wrong."

"I just want to stand by your side again. As for whether you forgive me or not, the choice is always in your hands."

"I have just reflected deeply on this. I was arrogant and controlling in the past, and I ignored your feelings. I know that the rift will not disappear easily. I don't ask you to forgive me immediately, I just hope you can give me a chance to slowly atone for my sins."

Xu Wuning stared at him for a long, long time without saying a word or chasing him away.

So, all day long.

Throughout the company, wherever Xu Wuning went, Lu Jingci would follow behind, calling out, "Ningning, Ningning, Ningning."

"Ningning, let me help you with your bag."

"Ningning, there are steps over there, don't slip."

"Ningning, that place is dirty. Let me clean it up for you before you leave."

The company employees all saw it, and their jaws nearly dropped: "What happened to President Lu?"

"I don't know, it seems like President Lu has gone crazy chasing after his wife."

"I secretly gave him a nickname. Some people call him 'Waaah Monster,' and he's called 'Ningning Monster.' I only dare to tell him in secret. Don't tell anyone else, or I'll get fired."

"Hahahaha, but to be honest, I'm so envious of President Xu for being able to meet such a good man as President Lu."

"Stop envying women all the time, you should envy men too. Ms. Xu is so beautiful and rich, it's Mr. Lu's good fortune that she fell for him. I envy Mr. Lu so much for meeting such a wonderful woman as Ms. Xu."

"Exactly! They're a perfect match! Get together right now!"

……

night.

Although he had returned from the company, Lu Jingci did not stop pursuing Ningning.

He sent people to buy all the latest dresses and bags from major brand stores and then had his assistant deliver them all to Xu Wuning's villa.

Two hours later, after everything had been delivered, he called Secretary Liu.

He inquired, "Secretary Liu, after Ningning received the gifts, did she say anything to you about me?"

Secretary Liu had a very relaxed day today, because it seemed that all her work had been done by President Lu.

Therefore, upon hearing President Lu's voice, she beamed with joy and spoke freely, truthfully reporting President Xu's situation:

Her voice was cheerful and respectful, "Mr. Lu, Miss Su Wanyue has returned from abroad and invited Mr. Xu to have drinks together, so Mr. Xu went."

"Ms. Xu was a little drunk. I drove her home half an hour ago, so she went to bed early tonight."

"She probably won't notice those dresses and bags until tomorrow morning."

Lu Jingci accurately captured the phrase "a little drunk".

After hanging up the phone with Secretary Liu.

Lu Jingci remembered his plan: pursue her earnestly during the day and seduce her seductively at night.

Now that Ningning is drunk, isn't this the perfect opportunity to seduce her?

His eyes lit up, and he dialed the number.

The phone signal beeped.

After the call connected, Lu Jingci's expression changed instantly. He called out gently, "Ningning, are you asleep?"

On the other end of the phone came Xu Wuning's drunken voice, lying on the bed. She mumbled, "Is it a gigolo?"

He doesn't look very awake.

This isn't just a little drunk; this is quite drunk.

Lu Jingci's lips curled up slightly as he admitted directly, "Yes, yes, it's still that duck."

His eyes darted around, but instead of saying anything directly, he took a roundabout approach, sniffing and his voice becoming pitiful:

"Didn't you say last time that the color of my underwear was ugly and give me a bad review?"

"I know you have good taste, so I wanted to ask for your opinion. No one else has better taste than you."

"I'm wearing a new color of underwear today, do you want to see it? If you do, I'll come over right now..."
