"Oh? So my house is a place where Zhu Yuan can feel safe? I'm unexpectedly happy."

Zhe didn't worry about falling asleep quickly, but Zhu Yuan felt a little shy after hearing this.

"Well, will you feel happy?"

"Yes, because I can feel Zhu Yuan's trust in me."

"I-I see... Ah! It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now. Thank you again!"

After saying this, Zhu Yuan left quickly with a slightly red face. Seeing this, Zhe did not stay and turned back to the store.

Zhu Yuan's favorability increased by 5 points, the current favorability is 90 points, and the emotional value gained is 600 points, the current emotional value is 24700 points.

The next day, Zhu Yuan sent a message saying that the operation went smoothly and there were no casualties.

After checking the message and replying, Zhe decided to complete today's commission first. After all, Miss Qimingxing worked very hard for him.

Not only did he get the contact information of Cunning Rabbit House from his predecessors, he also went to the outer ring alone to find more commissions for Zhe.

She treated him as a family member. By the way, Qimingxing's favorability had unknowingly increased to 93 points.

Moreover, when I was dating Ryan, Ailian and Nekomata in recent days, the feeling of being chopped by a hatchet did not appear again.

The day passed peacefully, and Lucy came to the video store again. When she saw Zhe coming over, she immediately pointed to a place not far behind her.

"Hey, did you notice that guy in the suit over there? Damn it—didn't I warn him last time not to show up again?

He keeps coming over here talking to himself, interrupting your business... Zhe, don't worry, I will never allow this to happen. I'm going to give that bastard an ultimatum right now."

After saying this, Lucy walked directly to the man in the suit. The latter was not surprised or afraid at all, but spoke respectfully.

"Miss Lucy... Ahem, sorry, I forgot you don't like being addressed like that."

"You've forgotten more than just this one thing. I told you not to bother my friends again, unless you want Ah Cao, Ah Mu, and Ah Zhuan to line up and step over your face!"

Chapter 268 Lucy's Confession

Lucy's vicious look obviously frightened the man in the suit, and he spoke with some fear.

"I still remember you as a gentle princess when you were little... Even though you're wearing a spiked leather jacket now, you wouldn't really treat me like this... right?"

"Be careful or I'll put the thorn in your—"

Before Lucy finished speaking, the man in the suit knew that she was serious. He no longer had any hope and his expression became very complicated.

“…Oh, I see. You’ve really changed.”

The man in the suit actually acted like he had watched his younger generation grow up and become rebellious, but Lucy didn't care about that.

"Hmph, I'm glad you knew—"

"As Mr. Montef expected, you are very much like him. He never told anyone, but he too had a rebellious streak in his youth."

The man in the suit was talking to himself, but Lucy looked bored when she heard him, as if it was none of her business.

“…What does it have to do with me?”

"Mr. Montef ran away from home for 10 years, but after 10 years he returned and took on his responsibilities.

Those 10 years of hard work and struggle gave Mr. Montef a lifetime of gifts—a tenacious character and the cunning to think outside the box, which are his unique advantages in the business world.

Lucy elegantly placed her finger to her lips, looking a little confused.

"I've never heard of such a thing..."

"Not to mention, during those 10 years of wandering, he met his lifelong soul mate...your mother!"

"..."

Perhaps because she heard her mother, Lucy fell silent, while the man in the suit continued his story.

"That's why, when Mr. Montev learned that you and the young man who runs the video store had a good relationship, he specifically told me not to interfere.

As he said - whether it is lovers or good friends, a truly deep relationship can only be born in the early days.

When you are ready to take on responsibilities, you will find that you have to deal with a lot of things, and in every late night when you are busy with paperwork, you will need a warm embrace -"

“…Acao, Amu, Azhuan!”

Lucy's face flushed red, and her whole body trembled. Before the man in the suit could finish speaking, she waved her hands, and three little wild boars leaped into the air and stepped on the man's face...

The visitor fled in a hurry, leaving behind Lucy, who was still gasping for breath, and Zhe, who was both surprised and thoughtful.

After all, judging from what the man in the suit said just now, Lucy's father seems to have acknowledged his relationship with Lucy. Does that mean he has obtained the approval of the parents?

Zhe thought so in his heart, but still spoke to comfort the angry Lucy beside him.

"Lucy, are you okay?"

"I'm still very angry. Father should know that he has no right to send a mouthpiece to tell us what to do.

Empty-minded adults always want to replicate their lives in their children, but I am not a copy of anyone."

After saying this, Lucy's tone calmed down a little, and then she spoke very seriously.

"I'm Lucy, I know what I hate and what I love, and I will never surrender to the things I hate.

I want to stand forever with the things I love... the outer ring starry sky, motorcycles, eternal victory, and my companions... including you.

I'm only saying this once, don't try to pretend you didn't hear it—!"

After Lucy said this, she turned her blushing face away a little awkwardly, but Zhe couldn't help but smirk when he saw this.

"Yeah, I heard it clearly. I also want to be with Lucy forever~"

“Ah—! You, you you! I, I won’t be happy if you suddenly say something like that!”

I was obviously very happy, and even my body was out of control due to excitement.

Zhe thought so in his heart, and at the same time stepped forward to hug Lucy, whose body was trembling slightly. At this moment, the latter suddenly held his face with both hands.

Then he kissed her very seriously. Because of her height, Lucy had to stand on tiptoe, but even so, Zhe still had to lower his head.

After a long time, Lucy let go of her hand. Although the shame and anger had made her feel awkward and embarrassed, she still looked at Zhe in front of her firmly.

"In that case, it's already considered a confession!"

"Eh?"

"I don't care. Anyway, I've already given you my first kiss. No matter what, that's a confession. Do you understand?!"

"Ah."

Only after Zhe nodded affirmatively did Lucy breathe a sigh of relief. Then she held her little face with both hands and began to reflect on her impulsive behavior.

Damn it! Why was I so impulsive just now? We haven't even confirmed our relationship yet, and I kissed him like that. If Zhe doesn't like me, wouldn't that be so embarrassing?

Although Lucy was reflecting on it, she didn't seem to regret it. She didn't like to do things that she wasn't sure of, but this time...

Anyway, the result is good, isn't it?

"Huh... Remember that kiss just now. You must remember it deeply. Do you understand?"

"Well, that will be one of my most precious memories... (whispering)."

Zhe's words were very affectionate, but Lucy, who was still in emotional fluctuations at the time, obviously did not catch those two words.

So she nodded with satisfaction, until she noticed that there were people watching her, then she suddenly reacted. She was shy and was then taken out of the video store by Zhe.

As for the customers in the store, although they were curious about this, they stopped paying much attention after seeing the two people leave. However, there was one person who was an employee in the store...

Hetty??o·(? ??? )?o·?: I was here first!

And outside the store at this time.

"What are you doing? Bringing me out here all of a sudden."

Lucy, who was holding Zhe's hand, seemed a little uncomfortable at this time, and the former asked back when he saw this.

"Lucy, are you free today? If so, would you like to join me? Just treat it as... a date."

"A date!... Well, alright, since you're the one inviting me, how can I not understand the situation? Where to go? You decide."

Lucy pretended to be calm and accepted Zhe's invitation, and then the two of them came to Guangying Plaza. The latter, who had rich dating experience, naturally knew what to do.

"[Hot Pot]? These shops are really good at packaging their marketing activities as challenges. But has anyone actually succeeded in this challenge?"

Lucy looked at the hot pot restaurant in front of her and seemed very interested, and Zhe spoke at the right time when he saw this.

"Has Lucy been tempted to win?"

“…But, Zhe, you don’t happen to be a person who can handle spicy food, do you?”

"Me? Of course no problem."

Seeing that Zhe was very confident, Lucy immediately decided to participate in the challenge.

Chapter 269 Lucy: If you win, I'll promise you anything...

"Let me be clear, I'm not some idiot who's been fooled by the vendor's rhetoric and wants to compete with them. I'm just...hungry, understand?"

"Yes, yes, let's eat together."

Zhe agreed with a doting look on his face, and the clerk who was introducing the shop beside him also added at this time.

"The winner of the challenge can have his name written on the wall of the store~"

"Did you hear that, Zhe! If you lose, I won't forgive you. If you win, I'll... I'll promise you anything!!"

To say something like that, isn't that completely out of control?

Zhe thought so in his heart, but he still worked hard with Lucy... and finished a set meal of hot pot.

"Great cooperation, you two! A complimentary serving of our signature spicy beef!"

At this time, the store clerk came over to congratulate her, but Lucy was not interested in it. Instead, she talked about the winner's reward.

"Now...now...now you can write my name on the wall?"

Lucy said this while touching her slightly bulging belly. She was so full from eating so much that she even had trouble speaking.

"Ah, unfortunately not yet. As I said, only the final winner's name will be on the wall..."

After saying this, the shop assistant obviously noticed the change in Lucy's expression, so she hurriedly continued speaking.

"The record holder since the opening of the challenge is a girl wearing goggles who suddenly appeared late one night.

She calmly enjoyed her spicy hot pot, just as she would guzzle iced tea on a hot summer day.

The clerk's metaphor was very interesting, and according to him, the girl did not leave her name, but only said that she was a soldier.

"So the wall is still empty. Next time I have a chance, I must ask her name—"

"...How much did she eat?"

"Well?"

"I asked, how much did she eat? - I will eat double next time. I will definitely, definitely, definitely not lose to this girl with goggles who came out of nowhere!"

Lucy looked determined to win. As for Zhe who heard this, he probably had already guessed who the girl with goggles was.

But looking at Lucy beside me, it's better not to say anything...

"Mmm, so spicy... I feel like if I drink a kerosene drink right now, I'll burn myself. Zhe... are you feeling okay?"

After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Lucy kept hissing, trying to use the cool breeze to relieve the spicy feeling on her tongue. In comparison, Zhe was much better.

"I'm fine. Is it spicy, Lucy? I have a way to help you. Do you need it?"

"Hmm? Of course I need it. What is it... huh?!"

Before Lucy could finish her words, he had already hugged her and kissed her. She didn't react to the sudden attack until it was over.

"W-What are you doing? We're on the street!"

"But there's no one around here. How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Hmm? It really doesn't seem spicy anymore. How did you do that?"

Lucy touched her pink lips, which had become a little red and swollen due to the spiciness just now, but now they had recovered.

"If you want to know, kiss me again and I'll consider telling you~"

Zhe said this deliberately, but Lucy didn't buy it. She just snorted and showed that she didn't care.
