Chapter 1152 No One Will Be Better than You (2)
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian’an deeply with a faint smile on his face. No one could figure out what he was thinking.
Su Jian’an’s long eyelashes fluttered twice, and she was burning all over. The calmness she had pretended to have was about to collapse.
If Lu Boyan still did not speak, she would really break down.
After an unknown period, Lu Boyan finally said slowly, “Jian’an, do you mind me looking at others?”
Su Jian’an certainly minded it.
But she had to emphasize one thing.
“Actually, I only mind you looking at women!”
Su Jian’an had to admit that she was deliberately making things difficult for Lu Boyan.
She would like to know how he would answer.
“What should I do?” Lu Boyan didn’t think about anything and looked quite helpless. “I’ve looked at a lot of women.”
Su Jian’an didn’t say anything.
She was stunned.
If Lu Boyan had not said it, she would have almost forgotten that he was the president of Lu Enterprises. He had to deal with as many people as he needed to deal with every day.
Of course, among the people he dealt with, there was no lack of businesswomen who were greatly beautiful and intelligent.
Daisy had revealed to Su Jian’an that many people did business with the company for the sake of Lu Boyan.
Su Jian’an was not affected at all.
The reason was very simple. She trusted Lu Boyan, and she also trusted his feelings for her.
If Lu Boyan was interested in other women, Lu Boyan would certainly have had a past relationship in the 14 years when they had not met.
Today, Lu Boyan deliberately provoked her, and he must have other purposes.
In that case, she should play along with him in his performance.
“Uh-huh.” Su Jian’an looked at Lu Boyan indifferently. “I know you’ve looked at a lot of women. So? What do you want to express?”
“I found that no one is better than you.” Lu Boyan’s tone changed all of a sudden, and his eyes suddenly became very deep. His voice was low and serious. “Jian’an, I am very happy to meet you when I was 16.”
Before meeting Su Jian’an, Lu Boyan had been in contact with girls, but he had never known what it meant to be in love.
After meeting Su Jian’an, he clearly felt the feeling of his heart beating faster on the streets of foreign countries over the long years.
Then, he realized that this feeling was love.
At that time, Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an were on different sides of the Earth. He could only get a few pieces of information about her from Tang Yulan’s emails, and he actually had a feeling of satisfaction.
Now that he thought about it, it was probably because it was always easy to be satisfied with a young heart.
Now, Lu Boyan had Su Jian’an, established a family with her, and had two lovely children.
All of this was what he had always dreamed of after discovering that he had fallen in love with her.
Therefore, when Tang Yulan told him that Su Jian’an had agreed to marry him, he almost couldn’t believe it. He had once thought that his dream was too far away to reach, but now it was realized so easily.
If someone asked Lu Boyan what the most precious in his life was, his answer must be only Su Jian’an.
Not the business empire built with more than ten years of hard work, not those worldly possessions, but Su Jian’an, who gave him love and a family, mattered the most to him.
Without Su Jian’an, most of the things in the world would be meaningless to Lu Boyan.
More than a year ago, Lu Boyan almost lost his chance to be with her because he did not dare to express his feelings.
Now, he learned the lesson from that time.
If there was a suitable opportunity, he would tell Su Jian’an everything he wanted to say to her.
Just like what he had just told Su Jian’an. There was no one better than her in the world.
Su Jian’an was caught off guard. She looked at Lu Boyan in a daze and could not come to her senses for a long time.
She had met a lot of people before.
However, the more people she met, the deeper her feelings for Lu Boyan were.
She would occasionally think that there might be no one better than Lu Boyan in the world.
Should she go to be with Lu Boyan, or should she spend the rest of her life keeping the secret that she loved him?
Before Su Jian’an could come up with an answer, there was a rumored affair between Lu Boyan and Han Ruoxi, which seemed to be very serious.
Su Jian’an couldn’t help but hide the love in her heart more secretly.
Lu Boyan was a big shot in the business field, and he had countless possibilities in his life. Han Ruoxi was a shining female star on the stage, and her future was limitless.
Lu Boyan and Han Ruoxi could be said to be a perfect match.
After realizing this, Su Jian’an tasted despair for the second time. The first time was when she lost her mother.
Fortunately, their hearts, which were in love, would always have a chance to get close to each other. In the end, she and Lu Boyan did not miss out on each other.
Thinking of this, Su Jian’an stood on tiptoe and kissed Lu Boyan. She looked at him seriously and said, “Honey, you do have good taste!”
Lu Boyan immediately realized that Su Jian’an was praising herself.
He rubbed Su Jianan’s tender and flawless face. “You have good taste as well.”
Su Jian’an could not help complaining. “Can’t you use another trick?”
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows and asked instead of answering, “Is there anything wrong with this trick?”
Su Jian’an actually did not know what to say.
Lu Boyan gave Su Jian’an a look, indicating that she should continue with what she was doing.
It took Su Jian’an a long time to react, and she quickly cleaned and cut the vegetables.
After a long while, Lu Boyan recalled what had happened in the company in the morning and naturally said, “Today, the secretary’s office asked about Yuechuan.”
“Hmm?” Su Jian’an asked curiously, “What did they ask?”
Lu Boyan said briefly, “They asked me if Yuechuan would still go back to the company.”
Su Jian’an said lightly, “Well, it’s not surprising that someone asked about him. It would be strange if they asked about you!”
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Jian’an calmly. “What do you mean?”
“Yuechuan is very popular in the company. It’s not strange that someone would care about him after such a serious thing happened to him.” Su Jian’an paused and looked at Lu Boyan. After a long while, she said word by word, “You are not the same.”
Lu Boyan narrowed his eyes and approached Su Jian’an. “Do you mean that no one will care about me?”
“Well, I mean they won’t care about you so evidently.” Su Jian’an said, “You are too powerful to the employees. No matter what happens, they believe that you can handle it well, so there is no need to care too much about you.”
Lu Boyan was quite satisfied with this explanation, and the anger in his eyes faded away. He flicked Su Jian’an’s forehead and said, “You pa.s.sed.”
Su Jian’an didn’t say anything and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was very fast. Not long after, four dishes and one soup were served on the table.
At this time, the sun had just begun to set, and it was still early.
Su Jian’an thought of Mu Sijue. Right then, if he had nothing to do, it would be hard time for him to stay alone, wouldn’t it?
If someone were with him, he might feel better.
Su Jian’an turned to look at Lu Boyan and asked, “Shall we call Sijue over for dinner?”
Lu Boyan knew that Su Jian’an was afraid that Mu Sijue would overthink things.
However, as far as he knew, Mu Sijue preferred to be alone at this time.
“Maybe next time.” Lu Boyan did not explain too much but just said, “Mu Qi has something to do today.”
Su Jian’an did not insist. “Alright. Let’s eat then.”
Halfway through the meal, Su Jian’an suddenly felt that there was something wrong with her lower abdomen. She put down her cutlery and went to the bathroom. As expected, she was on her period.
Su Jian’an’s had a healthy body, but when she was on her period, she felt unbearable pain. She felt as if there was a sharp blade constantly stirring in her lower abdomen, twisting and cutting her.
Lu Boyan took her to see a doctor once. She nursed her health for a period and eased that pain.
However, after the two little babies were born, the pain came back to her again.
Just like now, she had begun to feel uncomfortable all over.
Su Jian’an opened the cabinet and took out a tampon. As soon as she got it in place, there was a knock on the door, followed by Lu Boyan’s voice. “Jian’an?”
She opened the door and looked at Lu Boyan with embarra.s.sment, not knowing how to tell him what was going on.
Lu Boyan noticed Su Jian’an’s pale face and soon realized that she had been on her period in recent days.
He knew that she would be in a lot of pain during those days, so he asked someone to help nurse her health. But in the past few months, she seemed to be feeling uncomfortable again.
Lu Boyan held Su Jian’an and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Su Jian’an forced a smile and shook her head. “I’m fine now. It doesn’t hurt much.”
Lu Boyan tentatively asked Su Jian’an, “Shall we go downstairs for dinner first?”
Su Jian’an still shook her head. “I don’t have any appet.i.te.”
Ordinary people’s appet.i.tes would become very good during their period, but Su Jian’an was not the same. At this time, she had no appet.i.te. After a few days of the period, it was normal for her to lose several pounds.
Lu Boyan did not force Su Jian’an. He just said, “You should go back to the bedroom and have a rest.”
Su Jian’an nodded weakly and went back to the room to lie down on the bed. She didn’t even have the strength to cover herself with the quilt.
Lu Boyan followed Su Jian’an in, tucked her in, and then went downstairs.
Not long after, Lu Boyan came up with soup.
The soup in the bowl was brownish-red, and it emitted a warm and sweet fragrance.
Lu Boyan had never entered the kitchen before marrying Su Jian’an.
After they got married, he didn’t have to enter the kitchen. Su Jian’an’s cooking skills were so excellent that he didn’t need to get involved in cooking.
However, Lu Boyan learned to make brown sugar soup.
It was because Aunt Liu said that brown sugar soup could relieve the pain of Su Jian’an’s period.
Su Jian’an closed her eyes to rest, but she didn’t fall asleep. She smelled a sweet scent and already knew who it was. When she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Boyan coming over with brown sugar soup in his hand.
No matter whether the brown sugar soup could relieve her pain or not, she felt touched at this moment.
Lu Boyan put the soup on the bedside table and sat by the bed to look at Su Jian’an. “How are you feeling?”
“I’m fine.” Su Jian’an’s face became paler and paler. Her voice was obviously not as energetic as before, but she didn’t want Lu Boyan to worry. She struggled and said, “Go and check on Xiyu and Xiangyi. They may have woken up.”
“I just saw that Xiangyi has woken up. Aunt Liu is taking care of her.” Lu Boyan handed the brown sugar soup to Su Jian’an. “Have this first.”
The temperature of the soup was just right. Su Jian’an took a few sips, and as soon as she put down the bowl, there was a knock on the door, followed by Aunt Liu’s voice. “Mr. Lu, I need your help. Xiangyi is crying very hard.”
