Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

Shen Jingshu was incredibly intelligent; seeing his hesitant expression, she knew he couldn't make the decision.

She didn't insist, but walked to the car and politely knocked on the window: "Knock knock knock."

Lu Jingxing, who was looking down at reports in the back seat, was interrupted by the sudden knock on the door, and a deep frown instantly appeared between his brows. In his opinion, if the driver couldn't even handle such a small matter, he should be replaced.

But he suppressed his impatience, lifted his fingertips slightly, and slowly lowered the car window.

As soon as the car window rolled down, Shen Jingshu's gaze pierced through the gap and landed on the man in the back seat.

At first glance, she was startled—a dense purple aura!

The purple aura was so dense it was almost tangible, enveloping the man entirely—a destiny of unparalleled nobility and absolute power. In ancient times, this was an aura reserved only for emperors!

She subconsciously raised her hand, her fingertips slightly clenched, as if trying to deduce the person's identity.

But when her gaze settled on his face, she could only see layers upon layers of mist that completely obscured his destiny, and no matter how she tried to calculate it, she couldn't see anything clearly.

Shen Jingshu was slightly surprised, but then she thought that with her current cultivation level, it was normal that she couldn't see through the true nature of such a powerful and wealthy person.

Just as she was about to concentrate on her calculations, the man happened to look up.

Those deep eyes were now filled with impatience and scrutiny, like icy water in a cold pool, falling directly into Shen Jingshu's gaze.

Only then did Shen Jingshu truly see the man's face clearly, and her heart tightened suddenly.

This man is just too good-looking!

In her previous life, she traveled with her master and met countless young masters from noble families and outstanding talents, but none of them could compare to the man in front of her.

His facial features are deep and distinct, with cold and refined lines, a high nose bridge, and slightly pursed thin lips, giving him an aloofness that keeps strangers at bay.

The gold-rimmed glasses accentuated his noble and aloof demeanor, while the cold arrogance in his eyes did not diminish his good looks; on the contrary, it added an indescribable sense of pressure and charm.

Even though Shen Jingshu was usually calm and composed, she couldn't help but be slightly distracted at this moment.

Such beauty and bearing were unparalleled; she was the most beautiful person she had ever seen in her past and present lives.

Lu Jingxing met her clear and straightforward gaze, his brows furrowing even more, his aura growing even colder. He parted his thin lips slightly, his voice low and icy, devoid of any warmth: "What is it?"

Lu Jingxing felt a growing impatience as he looked directly at Shen Jingshu.

He had seen that look countless times. Every woman who had ever seen him was filled with infatuation, her eyes brimming with undisguised infatuation and longing.

The woman in front of him was indeed outstanding in appearance and had a different temperament from others, but in his eyes, she was ultimately just another person like him.

Another infatuated girl who came for his looks.

His face was cold, his thin lips parted slightly, and his tone was indifferent and devoid of any emotion: "What is it?"

Upon hearing the question, Shen Jingshu snapped out of her daze, quickly composed herself, and put on a gentle and polite smile: "Sir, I'm sorry to bother you. I'm stuck halfway up the mountain, and my phone is dead, so I can't contact my family. I wonder if you could give me a ride to the Li family villa?"

She had only asked to go that way, and if she was refused, she would be happy to borrow a phone.

However, upon seeing the rich and mellow purple aura surrounding Lu Jingxing, Shen Jingshu instantly changed her mind.

This purple aura is the purest and most precious fortune, which greatly benefits her cultivation. It is rare to encounter someone with such a noble destiny even in a hundred years.

She suppressed the pounding in her heart, wishing she could get closer and absorb as much of it as possible. Tonight, no matter what, she had to get on this car.

Lu Jingxing looked at her eyes, which held a sincere expression, without a trace of flattery, but rather clear and bright, unlike those women who deliberately try to please others.

The refusal that was on the tip of my tongue inexplicably got swallowed back.

He suddenly remembered that not long ago, his grandfather had found the Master Lingxu, who had solemnly warned him that he would face a life-or-death calamity at the age of thirty, and that the turning point to avert the calamity was today.

He waited from morning till night, and the whole day was uneventful, without anything unusual. But at this moment, this woman who suddenly appeared became the only variable of the day.

Could it be... that she is the turning point that Master Lingxu spoke of?

Regardless of whether it was true or not, a barely perceptible flutter of emotion swept through his heart, but Lu Jingxing ultimately just gave a faint "hmm" and uttered two words: "Okay."

Shen Jingshu's eyes lit up instantly, and her voice was full of joy: "Thank you, sir!"

She quickly walked around to the other rear door, opened it deftly, and got in.

The driver standing to the side was completely stunned, his eyes wide open, his face full of disbelief.

Having served Lu Jingxing for many years, he knew how averse to women this president was. Not to mention strange women asking for a ride, even if a wealthy heiress took the initiative to approach him, he would ruthlessly drive her away.

He had even prepared himself for the woman to be kicked out of the car by the boss on the spot, but at this moment, Lu Jingxing not only did not get angry, but remained calm throughout, without the slightest bit of rejection.

After Shen Jingshu settled down, she gently closed the car door. The car was filled with the faint fragrance of cedar, and the purple aura emanating from Lu Jingxing beside her grew stronger, swirling around her and making her feel comfortable all over.

She sat up straight without making a sound, trying not to disturb the man beside her, but secretly she was delighted. This chance encounter was really worth it.

Lu Jingxing glanced at the girl beside him. She sat quietly, her posture upright, neither leaning in nor giving him any extra attention, completely different from the clingy behavior he had expected. He frowned slightly, his doubts about his assessment of her growing.

"Drive," he ordered the driver in front in a deep voice, his tone still indifferent, but without any intention of driving him away.

The driver quickly snapped out of his daze, not daring to think any further, and immediately started the car, heading towards the Li family villa.

The car was completely silent; even the movement of air was so faint as to be barely audible.

Shen Jingshu sat upright on one side of the back seat, her posture straight and her expression calm and composed, showing no signs of emotion, but her heart was already churning.

She kept silently praying that the driver would slow down the car so that she could absorb more of the rich purple aura emanating from the man beside her.

This purple aura is the purest and most precious fortune in the world. For a mystic, it is a rare and precious treasure for cultivation, capable of nourishing one's cultivation and stabilizing one's foundation. It is a hundred times more effective than ordinary elixirs.

She calmly circulated her internal energy, subtly guiding the aura around her body, slowly absorbing the purple energy surrounding Lu Jingxing into her body, strand by strand.

The warm and mellow energy flowed along my meridians, making me feel comfortable all over, and my cultivation level even seemed to improve subtly.

Lu Jingxing, who was standing to the side, had no extra expression since she got into the car. He kept his eyes down looking at the documents in his hand, occasionally flipping through the pages with his fingertips. His expression was focused and cold, as if the presence of another person next to him could not affect him at all.

The driver had already recognized Shen Jingshu as a member of the Li family, and drove smoothly all the way, arriving at the Li family villa in no time. The car came to a steady stop, and the driver quickly turned around, politely saying, "Miss, we've arrived at the Li family residence."

"it is good."

Shen Jingshu regained her composure and turned to look at the man beside her, who remained focused on the documents. He remained silent, his expression indifferent. Even without a response, she nodded politely and said in a gentle tone, "Thank you, sir. Thank you for your help today."

After saying that, she gently pushed open the car door and stepped out.

Only after watching Shen Jingshu walk into the Li family's gate did the driver restart the car and continue driving towards the mountaintop.

At the very top of this hillside villa area lies the Lu family's private residence.

Lu Jingxing, the head of the Lu family, now lives alone here, while the old master of the Lu family lives in the old house and rarely comes over.

Silence returned to the carriage. Lu Jingxing closed the document in his hand, looked up at the night sky flashing past the window, and suddenly said in a deep, cold voice: "Go check it out."

The driver's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly understood that his boss wanted to check the identity of the young woman from earlier. He quickly replied, "Yes, Mr. Lu, I'll arrange it right away."

On the other side, Shen Jingshu entered the Li family villa. The lights inside were quiet, and the butler and servants had already gone to bed.

She walked alone down the corridor, her steps light and her mood exceptionally cheerful.

Tonight's events were truly perfect.
